Dream On

"Don't get enamored with charm and charisma. Follow character. It's responsibility that pays the bills, not dreams." Pay attention to this, don't be used as a meal ticket.

Blocking Out The Noise

Confidence is silent. Insecurities are loud.

Spring Fling

In life every situation, experience or circumstance, you learn something about yourself. Whether it hurt or it felt great there is a lesson in everything. Sometimes you grow, sometimes you move on, and sometimes you figure out who the important people in your life really are. And today I can say that you are one of my favorite lessons.

Loyalty

"Some people aren't loyal to you.. they are loyal to their need of you. Once their needs change, so does their loyalty." Pay attention and notice the people in your life. Do they just use you? Would they be your friend when you have nothing to give, are going through a hard time, or when you may need something? Be aware of the users, they aren't really your friend and they do not deserve your time.

Onward and Upward

"Moving forward is as much about learning what to let go of, as it is about what to embrace." Keep moving forward and grab a cup of coffee on the way!

Valentines

Valentines Day is coming up, and whether you have a romantic valentine or not, this is the holiday to show love to people in your life. If you don't have a romantic valentine, choose to shower your friends, family, or co-workers with some love. Or you could just eat a lot of chocolate and show yourself some love!

 

Happiness

"Don't let your happiness depend on something you may lose." - C.S. Lewis

I've heard, seen, and experienced this myself lately. It is easy to think that if I have this amount of money, or this relationship, or this job, that then I will be happy. I have come to see that happiness only comes from a place of gratitude for what you do have and a true contentment with yourself. Instead of looking to others or things to make you happy, look to yourself. Choose to be happy and smile today :) It will make the world brighter.
