The gift of Living Authentically

admin — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 16:09:43 +0000

“If you call forth that which is in you, it will save you. If you do not call forth what is in you, it will destroy you. ” – Gospel of St. Thomas

What does it mean to live authentically? I believe that it means that our inner world (feelings, values, spirituality, truths) are in alignment with our outer world (community, career, relationships). When these two areas of our lives are congruent, we experience an inner peace and wisdom that brings us deep fulfillment and joy in our lives. We are each born with our own inner compass… but when we choose not to follow our true direction and path in life, we find ourselves lost… sometimes lost in our own lives. In living with true alignment, our purpose here on this life journey will become crystal clear, and we will enjoy life the way we were intended to.

The Will To WIN!

“The spirit, the will to win and the will to excel – these are the things that will endure and these are the qualities that are so much more important than any of the events themselves.” – Vince Lombardi, Jr.

Words of Wisdom from Jim Rohn

“Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job. I’ve worked hard on my personal development, and I must admit that this has been the most challenging assignment of all. This business of personal development lasts a lifetime. But here’s the great axiom of life: To have more than you’ve got, become more than you are. Unless you change how you are, you’ll always have what you’ve got.” – Jim Rohn (Lessons on Life).

I believe this to be completely true! If there’s anything you need to change in your life… your health, your career, your relationships – YOU are the change. Most people play the blame game. They blame the situation, the boss, the spouse, or circumstances for why they can’t have what they want. The change you are searching for will always come from within you. YOU FIRST… and the rest will follow.

Instant Inspiration

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 16:24:43 +0000

“To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable; and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly…to listen to stars and buds, to babes and sages, with open heart; await occasions, hurry never…this is my symphony.” – William Henry Channing

The Real You

Listen to the passion of your soul, set the wings of your spirit free; and let not a single song go unsung. – Sylvana Rossetti

Throughout my journey of helping women, I have found that the majority of women are so caught up in their busy lives they’ve forgotten who they truly, authentically are. We as women are so identified with our roles and responsibilities… as mothers, wives, caretakers, career women, etc. In living all these different roles, we can easily lose track of ourselves and oftentimes, forget who we are beyond the roles themselves. If you think about it, most of us even change our name when we get married, and in an instant our identity is changed in some form. No wonder we lose our sense of self sometimes! It can be quite confusing at times for sure.

So, stop… take a deep breath, think back, and ask yourself these simple questions – Do you remember who you wanted to be? What you dreampt of becoming one day? Are you that person? Are you living that dream? Remember what’s most important in your life… hold on to those long lost hopes and dreams. Discover or rediscover your authentic identity and reclaim the woman you are in your soul, behind all the roles. That doesn’t mean giving up your roles and responsibilities – it means reclaiming what is deep within you and embracing the meaning of your life – not simply the meaning of life.

What makes your soul shine? The time to answer that question is NOW! You’re SO here… it’s time to live life to the ultimate! What are you waiting for?

This is Not the Life I Ordered

admin — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 18:24:48 +0000

There are two ways of meeting dificulties: you alter the difficulties or you alter yourself meeting them. – Phyllis Bottome, English writer

“This is Not the Life I Ordered”, is a wonderful book that began with four friends getting together for “kitchen table coaching sessions” to share the struggles that they were faced with on a daily basis. These women have been true “Heroes in Heels” to each other and other women as they helped one another nagivate through all the issues and challenges they each faced (which include one of them being shot and left for dead on a tarmac in South American, and two that lived through the death of their spouses). You will enjoy wonderful stories, quotes, wisdom, and practical advice.

These four ordinary women have faced extraordinary life challenges with grace and love. Because of their connection, love, and understanding – they helped one another thrive, rather than simply survive. I think as women, each of us has been at a place in our lives where we thought to ourselves, “THIS IS NOT THE LIFE I ORDERED!”

This book truly does give you what it promises: “50 Ways to keep your head above water when life keeps dragging you down.” What a great book to share with all the women in your life!

Love Me Knots

LOVE ME KNOT:
“A union of spirits, an offering of love, a bond of infinite value and enduring ties, lifting two souls to the sacred meeting place between heaven and earth” – Carrie Flintom, Pam Rundquist

A knot is a compact interlacing which ties and bonds two strands of materials together. A knot can weave two single threads together into something so strong that nothing can ever break its strength. To tie a simple knot is an uncomplicated process to learn, yet it is crucial in holding together even the most priceless and extraordinary things. There are countless types of knots, but they are always used to tie or hold something together in a unifying bond.

Now take that idea of a knot and all it’s purpose, and turn it into a “Love Knot.” A Love Knot is an act of love and caring directed at another human being. By freely giving Love Knots to another person, we literally fold our spiritual arms around them through our words and deeds. With every small knot we tie, we strengthen the bonds of kinship. The more knots we tie, the stronger the connection. The process is eternally ongoing.

As you go through your day, think of giving “Love knots” to tie together the bonds of those around you. The opportunties to tie “love knots” are everywhere! Trust that with each knot you tie, you are strengthening the connection to another person as well as yourself.

Here are just a few suggestions to get you started!

– Give a compliment
– Smile at a stranger
– Tip 5% more than normal
– Say “I’m sorry”
– Share your talents
– Be a good listener
– Call an old friend
– Say I love you to someone new
– Give a co-worker a fun little “something” anonymously
– Let someone cut in front of you on the road

HAVE FUN WITH IT!!!!
