How Do You Celebrate the People in Your Life?

Celebrate the people in your life every day. There are any number of holidays upon which we remember specific people.  Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Veteran’s Day, Memorial Day and Labor Day celebrate individuals or groups.  But we should do all we can to celebrate people every day. While I often discuss here the idea of self-care and doing things for ourselves, it cannot be to the detriment of people who are in our lives.  Even the most introverted amongst us

What Makes You Laugh?

Do you laugh often enough? I am not just writing about a chuckle here and there, or a derisive snort.  I am talking about a thorough, complete, can-hardly-breathe-almost-crying laugh.  A laugh of pure positivity and joy. We all know that there are some pretty awful things going on in the world.  Everybody has their struggles and their challenges.  But we also have endless possibilities and options, and chances to find things that bring us joy. Know that you are worthy

How Do Desire and Want Differ?

Desire is an expression of abundance. Want is an expression of lack. When it comes to self-talk, it is imperative to be aware of the difference in these. Consciousness creates reality.  If we are focused on “wanting” something, we don’t realize that we are taking a lack approach.  Because words matter, it’s important to be aware of the power of what we say, and even how we say things. This also applies to the words we think and don’t necessarily

Does Self-Care Create Positivity?

Self-care is empowering. When we do things to care for our own health and wellbeing, we provide ourselves with the ability to give more to others. Self-care is not selfish. When we take care of our own needs; comfort; intellectual, emotional and physical stimulation, we actually are empowering ourselves to give more to others. Our smartphones can do incredible things.  They can find directions, connect us to friends and family, get us information across the globe, provide hours of entertainment,

What Tone Will You Set For Today?

I get to set the tone for my day. Will it be a good day?  A bad day?  Will it be a productive day?  Is this going to be a day of total time mismanagement?  I alone know and choose what it will be.  It’s entirely up to me. It can be really easy to forget, when all is said and done, that we are in control of our emotions.  Yes, things happen outside of our control that could trigger

How Does Appreciation Empower Us?

Appreciation appreciates. Everybody likes to be appreciated.  Being thanked in whatever form it takes goes a long ways towards feeling good and generating positivity. Receiving appreciation is huge.  Expressing appreciation is even more ginormous. We live in an abundant universe.  Lack and scarcity are manmade concepts, used to disempower the masses, and keep the collective consciousness controlled by a small group of individuals.  Every single one of us has the power to create amazing lives where we will not lack

Why Seek Positivity? Just Because.

The world needs more positivity.  Why?  Just because, that’s why. When we have more positivity in our lives, we feel better.  When you get right down to our fundamental motivations, feeling good is pretty much the main driving force for everyone for everything. Positivity does not need to be complex.  It can be insanely simple.  Everyday things like dogs and cats, sunshine, interestingly shaped clouds, a cup of coffee, the antics of a small child, moonlight, laughter, the feel of

Do You Believe?

Do you believe in magic? Do you believe that the world is exactly as it is presented to us every day?  Believe that we are all victims of circumstance, playthings of the Universe, and bound by an uncontrollable fate? Or do you believe there is more? I believe that Consciousness Creates Reality.  We have in each and every one of us the power to build a better world.  All of us are capable of becoming amazing.  It just takes the

What Matters Most?

What matters is being the best you that you can be. Nobody but you knows who you are.  That’s the long and short of it. Let’s look at a single universal truth.  No matter how we act, no matter how much we strive to be real and genuine, people will perceive us based on their own experiences, expectations, prejudices and knowledge.  They will judge you based on how they perceive their own world, and there is nothing you or I

Does Optimism Generate Positivity?

Optimism is a good thing. Having an optimistic outlook on life, the universe and everything is at least forty-two times better than not.  If consciousness creates reality, then it goes to follow that if we have a negative outlook, we draw more negativity to us. Optimism and positivity go hand-in-hand.  Both also suffer from a similar stigma.  Many people see optimism and positivity as being pie-in-the-sky, rose-colored glasses wearing ideals.  Sunshine and rainbows, flights of fancy with no roots in
