👊 Today’s Power Thought ~ Be a Problem Solver
Become a problem solver, you’ll never be without work. Most will quit if the problem is too tough. Hang tough with problems, you’ll figure out what to do. You’ll grow in knowledge and confidence.
💡 Something to Think About
The country-western singer, Waylon Jennings, said, “Life is too short to hang with cats who can’t play.” The same can be said of hanging with people who are always angry or think only about themselves. Choose to hang with people who enjoy life, enjoy people, and will lift your spirits on even the darkest day.
🌾 Today’s Poem ~ Love’s Philosophy
Love’s Philosophy
The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean;
The winds of heaven mix forever,
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In one another’s being mingle;–
Why not I with thine?See the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower would be forgiven,
If it disdain’d its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea;–
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?
🍎 Today’s Health Tip ~ Which is Nutritionally Better: Steel Cut Oats or Rolled Oats?
The Winner is: It’s a Dead heat!
The nutritional data for both steel-cut and rolled oats are almost identical, as whole groats go through minimal processing in both versions of the cereal. The mineral and nutrient contents of rolled oats match those of steel-cut oats.
Steel-cut oats, also known as Irish or coarse oats, are the least processed form. Steel-cut oat processing involves chopping whole groats into smaller pieces using steel blades.The resulting oats take longer to cook. They also have a chewy consistency and a more robust flavor than other oats, such as quick oatmeal.
🌞 Today’s Inspiration ~ Dream Big and Never Stop Chasing It
Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.
👊 Today’s Power Thought ~ Have Faith in Yourself
Don’t become paralyzed by overthinking a decision. I’ve seen it time and again where people are afraid of deciding in case they are wrong. There are no guarantees. If you don’t make a decision you’ll never know what would have happened. You’ll never learn from a victory or a mistake. Have faith in yourself that you can make it work.
🌞 Today’s Inspiration ~Believe You Can
“If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won’t, you most assuredly won’t. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad.” ~ Denis Waitley
