Many people shy away from visualization to achieve their goals simply because it feels like it would take too long to see results. After all, isn’t the key to constant visualization repetition? The answer is yes…and no. By all means, you’re going to see better results the more you engage in visualization. But there are some very quick and even instantaneous benefits to visualization which
You have big goals in your life. You’ve even heard visualization is the key to reaching those goals. But you still hold back. Why? The most common reason: you don’t have enough time. Well, who has enough time? According to a Gallup poll, 48% of American’s feel like they don’t have enough time to get the things done they want to. Between work projects, family
What do you want out of life? More importantly, how do you intend to go about getting it? We all have so many wants. Some are very simple, such as wanting to lose five pounds in time for swimsuit season. While others, such as changing to a new career, are more complex. What’s interesting is that you can use the very same technique to get
Yup, it is that time of the year again. You guessed it… It’s the time where we all look back on the past 12 months. We might have some regrets, some joys, some good intentions, and whatever else we can think of. We ask ourselves why we did what we did. What we wish we would have done instead or differently. Things we wish we
We all have dreams and ambitions. Sadly, most of the time we do not follow them or act upon them. We come up and listen to all the reasons why they won’t come true. The worst part, we buy into those lies and believe them as truth… The result… nothing! Nothing but the ‘validation’ that we, and others, were ‘right’ all along! Nothing but the
It’s funny how once a year, here in the US, people gather to give thanks. For some, it might be the only day in the year they do so. It is still better than not giving thanks, being grateful, or appreciating what we have in life. So many times, people look at me and are in awe about my positive attitude and outlook on life.
Not sure about you, but growing up and even these days, I hear ‘laughter is the best medicine’. Maybe that is why it is so important to me to spread the #HappinessMatters movement. If you read my book, Happiness Matters ~ Unleash Your Superpower in 7 Easy Steps, you know that my upbringing was anything but a laughing matter. Yet, despite everything, I always found
Boundaries are amazing and totally necessary to protectyourself, your energy, and most of all… Your sanity! It took me quite a while to grasp the concept of boundaries.For most of my life, I tried to fit in and was nothing but a doormat for most.Doing and helping others made me feel good in the moment and gave me illusion Iwas actually valued. The result… my
Suffering is optional. The first time a friend told me this, I argued tooth and nail with her. Clearly, she had no idea of the pain I was in. Not just the mental pain, but the physical pain was debilitating. Obviously, I was suffering because of the pain! Because of the pain, I stayed home a lot instead of going out and having fun. The
Sometimes, we wonder why our life is the way it is. I most certainly have wondered this many times growing up and way into adulthood. Growing up, I often wondered what I did wrong to deserve what I was going through. Actually, I’ve asked myself this question time and time again until just a few short years ago. How come others who had a similar,
Being true to oneself is the greatest gift we can give to ourselves. We are so conditioned to fit in the mold’s society has created for us. If we do not fit in any of those molds, we are labeled as difficult, non-conforming, outcasts, and whatever else. As a result, we become something or someone we are not. We try our hardest to fit in.
A few years ago, when I started my journey of personal development, a mentor asked me: Would you be offended if somebody talked to you the way you talk to yourself? This question hit me out of nowhere and it made me take a very close look at myself and how I talk to me. It was a true eye-opener! Turns out, I was rather
If there is one thing I have learned over the years is that change is a good thing. Change allows us to grow and become the person we are meant to be. If we allow it… Like most, I used to be afraid of change. The unknown. Not knowing what to expect or if and how it will work out. Too many times, I opted
