Envisioning The Day

February 8th, 2010

Have you ever noticed that whatever happens during the first hour of your day will normally set the tone for the remainder of your day?

Try stubbing your toe as you step out of bed and if you don’t make the conscious decision to shake it off, you may find yourself cussing and hopping around for awhile.

Taking a moment to imagine your day before you get out of bed is a simple way to maintain a positive focus, gain clarity and set short terms goals for the day.

The alarm clock sounds, you reach over to turn it off.

Why is it you don’t have a job?

A young girl stands in the center of the room.  To her left is a crowd of her teachers, coaches, people of influence who have shared their lives with her.  At the center of her world is her dad and his friends in military uniform all smiling warming.

To her right is another crowd, this one is filled with college students’ arms outstretched and flailing, moving slowly towards her as if in a horror movie.

The young girl dressed in her freshly pressed Girl Scout uniform looks to her left, then to her right as she clutches her one remaining box of Thanks-A-Lots(tm) cookies tightly to her chest.

MichaelKellerI believe the Universe works in mysterious ways, bringing together people who are meant to be connected in this world.

When Mike Keller headed to a book signing one morning he had no idea that day he would meet a mystery woman. A woman who was doing the work of the Universe as she was about to connect two individuals living two thousand miles apart.

Mike is the author of “Life in a Week, A Book About Being Really Happy” and the book signing was his own in his home state of Connecticut.

Girl Scout Cookie sales

Girl Scout "Thanks-A-Lot" Cookies

It’s Girl Scout cookie season again and I have to admit those brightly colored boxes lining the tables outside of the stores look absolutely inviting.  I know first hand that the cookies inside each of those boxes are as delicious as the description

on the outside promises.  Each year more and more people are delving into the $4 a box cookies with helpless abandon and devouring an entire box in just one or two sittings and quite frankly, who can blame them as the cookies are simply put, yummy in the tummy!

Thanksgiving Blessings

November 26th, 2009

Today is just one of the 365 days of the year to be thankful for the blessings in life. Take a moment to reach out to those around you who may or may not be aware of how grateful you are to have them in your lives. I am personally thankful for so many people who have blessed my life:

My parents: who gave me life.

My husband: who has stood by me during all of the ups and downs that have allowed me to create the beautiful life I live today.
