**How Are You Doing On Your Goals?

Have you ever set goals and then not made them happen? Were these goals what you really wanted? If they were, then why did you procrastinate and not get them accomplished? When you set goals, be sure they are what YOU want. If they aren’t, then you might need to amend them. Or you might need to fine tune them. But be absolutely sure they are what YOU want, and not something someone else has tried to make you believe you should want. Then remember, you can’t travel in two dir

***Life Is Full Of Possibilities

It is up to us to open our minds to what “can be” and then make the choice to pursue it passionately. Many people are doing what they do because they think they have to do it. All too often, choices are made based on what we believe is the “right” thing to do rather than on what will make us happy. Each of us has within us a wellspring of energy, creativity, and inspiration. It is always there, even when we are not aware of it…even when we are tired, burnt out and just doing

*** Are You Experiencing “Life Block?”

You hear about it all the time. Writer’s Block – that awful moment you find yourself staring at the blank page and realize you have no idea how to begin and a deadline fast approaching. Oh, you have ideas, wonderful flights of fancy that have you finishing your report ahead of time, writing a best selling novel or having your fabulous article published in the latest, greatest magazine.

***Do You Have Courage?

Traditionally, people have used the word “courage” when referring to war heroes, police officers, fire fighters and others who put their lives on the line. It is true. They have tremendous courage. Do they feel fear? Yes, and they act anyway. Perhaps our daily activities aren’t life threatening, yet we must understand, that it takes courage to live. Ordinary people like you and me need courage to get through our daily lives. There are so many things that cause us to feel fea

When these situations arise, certain thinking processes are necessary to induce creative thinking.

It seems like every conversatio I have had with someone lately, they have brought up the terrible state of the economy.

**Are Your Habits Holding You Back?

Success and failure are largely the result of habit, the automatic ways you respond and react to what’s going on around you. Changing habits which are no longer consistent with your purpose is one of the hardest things you’ll ever have to do, and one of the most essential to the quality of your life. Changing self-defeating habits must take priority. You are living today with habits you must discard if you are going to move forward. Remember, bad habits are easy to form, but

Toxic Beliefs Doom Your Efforts

By Judi Moreo Make no mistake. We choose our beliefs. There's nobody sitting behind you with a gun pointed to your head telling you to believe certain things. There's nobody threatening to kill you if you don't believe you are worthless, incapable, and not up to the job. Nobody's forcing you to be miserable.

How to Take Inspiration Without Copying

By Judi Moreo Supposedly, imitation is the best form of flattery, but when someone actually copies one of our ideas, flattery tends to be the last thing we feel! Instead, it’s frustrating when someone benefits from what should have been our unique idea, and it makes the copier look bad for having no imagination of his own. This is why it’s considered sacrilegious to copy a friend’s choice of wedding venue or color scheme! Taking inspiration from others is a different matter
