The Power of Positivity

It is easy forget how powerful our thoughts. But our thoughts lead to our behaviors which lead to actions and consequently influence our outcomes.  Today, try to assume the world is out to do you good!  Assume that everything will work out for your highest good.  Put a smile on your face, knowing that miracles are happening right now in your life!!  If something happens you don't want, know that something else is happening that you do want.  Just keep that knowing, that faith, and watch the miracles unfold right before your eyes!!!

Please feel free to share your experiences (past and present) in the comments.  Have an amazing day!!  I know miracles are happening right now!!

Find Your Joy Friday

Do you ever feel like you are just getting through the day, the week, the year?  Do you feel like you are always busy but not accomplishing anything?  If you answered yes to either of those, it's time for a change!!

It's time to find your passion and pursue it like your life depends on it!!  Sometimes people get so caught up in making a living that they stop truly living!!

If you know what you are passionate about, are you pursing it?  If not, today is the day to start.  We find our purpose in our passion.

If you are confused about what you even like to do or what you are passionate about, then take some time to just sit and relax.  Ask yourself the following questions, or better yet, journal about them.  When was the last time I felt super alive and happy?  What was I doing? What did I love as a kid?  What did I want to do with my life when I was a kid?  Am I doing it?  Do I still want to do it or something similar?  What books do I like to read?  What makes me passionate?  What do I love to do?   Give yourself time and just write - don't censor what comes up, just write and write.  Ask yourself the question over and over and see what other things come up.  When you determine what makes you happy and where your passion lies, take one step in that direction.

Life is meant to be enjoyed!!!  Here's to a meaningful, happy, abundant life!!  You deserve it simply because you exist!!

Begin Each Day With A Grateful Heart

 It really is that simple!  If we start each day with a grateful heart and focus on all that we have to be grateful for, the day will be much better.    It is easy to wake up and think about all the things we "have" to do and all the "problems" we need to fix in our lives but that puts us in problem mode rather than solution mode.

For the next week, wake up and immediately focus on gratitude.  Be thankful that you woke up.  Be thankful for the fact you have somewhere to sleep.  Be thankful for friends and family.  Be thankful for the clothes you have. Be thankful for an indoor bathroom with running water.  Be thankful for the ability to think. Be thankful food you have to eat.  There is so much to be grateful for and we often take it for granted because we are focused on the things we want and don't have.  It's easy to switch the focus.  Try it for a week and let me know what changes you see in your life.  We always get more of what we focus on!!  Let's make it something we actually want :)

Have a magical, grateful day!!

How are you going to make a difference today?  Post it below and how it made you feel.

Have an amazing day and never underestimate yourself or your effect on others!!!

Eating Right in a Hurry: 9 Meal Prep Tips for Busy Parents

Eating Right in a Hurry: 9 Meal Prep Tips for Busy Parents



As a busy mom, I know how challenging it can be to prepare healthy meals with 3 hungry boys wanting to eat right away.  This offers some great tips!  I do love my Tower Garden which I'm preparing to bring inside for the fall and winter.  It's so convenient to always have fresh lettuce for salad! Once I figure out where to put a second one, I will be ordering it :)
