Dare to Dream Big
Dare to take the first step
The mountain’s not too far
The distance is not too great
One step, then another and another
Soon, you’ll be at the summit

Inspiring Quote of the Day ~ It’s Never Too Late to Begin
“The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best time is now.”
~ Chinese Proverb
Positive Thought of the Day ~ The Seeds of Happiness Surround You
“Happiness, not in another place but this place…not for another hour, but this hour.”
NOTE: If we can’t be happy now, when will be happy? Unhappiness is the result of wanting to be in someplace other than in the place we currently find ourselves. How often have you said or heard someone say, “I’ll be happy when . . .”? We find happiness where we are in the midst of the chaos, unsettling events, and diversity of people and opinions. Dig for it and you’ll find it. You’ll have a treasure no one can take from you.

Positive Thought for Today ~ Yesterday Doesn’t Determine Today
Yesterday doesn’t determine today. If it wasn’t working yesterday, make the adjustments and move on.
Don’t carry yesterday’s baggage, today’s load will be enough.
Look ahead to the all the great possibilities,
leave the negative thoughts in the trash can.
Positive Thought of the Day ~ Surprise Yourself
“If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.”
NOTE: Still the negative voices. Ignore them when they scream at you. Act like the salmon who swim upstream to spawn. Put your face into the wind and keep moving. Nothing can stop you from chasing your dream if you keep chasing it. Who knows, one day you may surprise yourself and all the doubters.
Positive Thought of the Day ~ It’s Going to Be a Great Day
It’s a going to be a great day. I know it. Why not? Why not you? Do you believe you deserve a great day? I do. It doesn’t happen by standing still and waiting for it to knock on the door or text. We have to go after it. The mystery of having a great day is that the more we help others have a great day somehow it bounces back to us. Get out there and connect to others. Bring everyone you meet a smile, a word of encouragement, or a helping hand. You’ll have a great day.
Feeling Good Tip of the Day ~ It’s All Going to Work Out
“Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.” ~ Robert H. Schuller
NOTE: Nighttime isn’t permanent. Storms run out of wind and rain. It’s tough when you’re in the middle of the storm. It may seem as if it will never end. It will. Dawn will break and the storms will drift over the horizon leaving behind sunshine and blue sky. Don’t think of quitting. Don’t consider giving up. You’re strong. You’re stronger than you can imagine. It’s all going to work out.
