Every new day Is Another Chance to get it right.

Don’t worry about what happened yesterday. Don’t fret over what you forgot. Don’t cry over things you can’t control. Don’t even waste your energy on people whom you can not change. Don’t beat yourself up about yesterday, your failures, your laziness, your whatever! Don’t dwell on the things you didn’t get right. Just know that every morning comes. And when it comes, it brings a new day to get it right. Greet each new day as another chance to get it right.

Special thanks to my blog friends for letting me know you hear me. I hear you too.

Please sign up for updates and free music.

  Dear Angela,
  I enjoyed reading your blog. You are right. Each morning we’re given a new chance to do things better than we did the day before. Self-Acceptance opens the door to building new skills and creating great experiences for ourselves and for others.
  
  Celebrate you!
  Never Give Up

  Very soothing words. We all tend to dwell on the negative and the advice to do the opposite is good

@angieandthecool Live, think, and act as if people will support you. http://youtu.be/8KgiywcdAKI

Operate as if everyone is all in. Live, think, and act as if people will support you. As if the Universe or God will give you exactly what you need and even what you want. You see, if you live with a positive attitude you will get more positive responses. Just think that everytime you apply for something you want, that you will get it. That everytime you ask a friend or even a stranger for help they will give it to you. What if you really believed it. How would your life change?

  Hi Angie, I posted your video “Push & Shove” on my blog and advertised your gig tonight. I have friends in Durham. What you’ve written above is worthy of the quote section on my blog so if you don’t mind, I’m going to quote you.
  
  I’d love for you to add my blog to your list of supporters: http://createabeautifullife.com/ I’ll feature your music once a month on my main page.

  Angie, Glorify God, say a prayer before your gigs(I am sure you do this already) and your blessings will triple. Been away for a long minute, battling B cell lymphoma…God conquered it! Hallelujah! Just got my results this past Friday. And now, this promising email from you. God bless you Sister! Toi Toi Toi tonight in Durham! If I was near, I would pop in. Sure would be nice to see you gig here in Europe. When praises go up, Blessings come down:-)

It’s all about who you know?

I hear people say all the time. It’s all about who you know. To get ahead, you have to know the right people. This is so frustrating, if you DON’T know the right people. So the challenge this week is to reach out to people you don’t know and get to know them. If you know of a person that can help you and get you to where you need to be. Contact them and offer to buy them lunch. You might be pleasantly surprised at the outcome. And you may just make a new friend.

I hope to see you soon.

I hope to see you soon!

  God is the most important entity that I know! Because of his power, I have conquered a life threatening illness(results received on April 12th), praised his name throughout the entire ordeal, and reached out to other folk via gospel Music… eased their journeys as well. Thank you Angie, for sending me an email today. Toi!Toi! Toi! for your gig tonight in Durham. May God especially bless your performance tonight and lead some significant person to assist you with your career. Please lift up name of Jesus tonight, even if it has to be acapella. God loves you!:-) Know what? I think I will send my colleague/producer friend in Schallstadt, Germany your link. You just never know. Blessings, Anna

  Great song (and rendition)! Have you ever heard the Lee Michaels version of it from the late ’60s? Very rock’n'rolly but great organ sound.
  - Arts Inspiration 11:58 am on February 14, 2013 Permalink | Log in to Reply
    
    Oh wow. You have officially become one of the most important people in my life. I have never ever heard of this rendition before you mentioned it here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Now I’m all over youtube trying to find more about Lee Michaels. Wow.

Decide What is Best for YOU.

Your standards may be different from someone else’s. You don’t have to compare yourself to them. You don’t have to live up to someone else’s standard of beauty or success or acheivement. You just need to decide what is best for YOU at this time. What is success to YOU! It doesn’t necessarily mean lots of money, a book deal, or a big house, or some other material thing.

Peace and Love to You.

Please comment and share a special holiday greeting or word with me. Thank you everyone for being there when I needed you. Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holiday Season to everyone. Let’s pray for those who are victims of gun violence and let’s stay safe. But it’s time to do something about it. We all need each other. We are in this together. Again, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I hope that life treats you well and that you find the strength inside to cherish yourself as well as those around you. I hope that I will meet more beautiful people like you. I hope to see you soon. I hope that God gives me the courage to step outside of my comfort zone and soar. I hope that the New Year becomes a living symbol of a New Beginning for all of us. I hope that forgiveness overcomes hatred as I believe deep down inside that the future is bright. I hope that I try to spend more time thinking and doing for others. Peace and Love to you. Always.

Sincerely,
Angela.

    And do not forget what the Romans used to say – - – “Illigitamate Corborundum.”
    Translation: Don’t let the bastards grind you down.

  I thought you were already soaring. That’s perception for ‘ya… that you are doing what I can’t – I didn’t realize you were locked in a comfort zone. I do hope you find the courage you are seeking, that God will continue to bless you and give you what your heart desires, and that your success is His will.

Step out of your comfort zone. You can achieve your dreams. But you have to act on it, now.

If you do what you always did, you’ll have what you always had. Stop fooling around and push yourself a little harder. If it’s too easy, it probably isn’t going to get you to where you need to be. Sometimes you have to choose the difficult thing.Step out of your comfort zone. You can achieve your dreams. But you have to act on it, now.

You may have to start off by taking baby steps

When You Love Someone, Love With Your Heart and Your Actions.

When you love someone, you should love with your heart. Give of yourself and don’t be selfish.
When you love someone, it means nothing, if you don’t show them in some way by treating them with respect and care.
If you love someone, you don’t wish them evil. You don’t want to see them destruct.
When you love someone, you should build them up, and they should do the same.
You see saying you love someone, sounds nice, but has little meaning if you treat them with malice and hate.
True love and sex make a great combination. As sex with a person who is selfish is totally lame. You just can’t wait for it to be over.
When you love someone, sex is communication between both of you, and you give of yourself, so that each of you can feel the gift and benefit from it.
When you love someone, show them.
Appreciate them.
When you love someone, let them experience the truth. Throw away all the lies. They deserve it.
When you love someone, love with your heart and your actions.

P.S. I hope to meet you soon.

Just Relax

Sometimes the world feels like it is on a fast spin. Things are happening fast and life is just passing you by. You sit and wonder, where has the time gone. My biggest thing lately has been comparing myself to others who are “successful.” I sit and say: What have I done? What will be my legacy? Then I realize that we are on this earth for a very relatively short period of time. It is why some people do whatever it is they want in the face of criticism and judgement. You see, it’s your life. Make something of it. Not by other people’s standards but by what you know is just and true to you. Should you suffer and be cynical or just try and spend every waking moment finding joy. You see. I heard someone say that true love doesn’t exist. That it only happens in the movies. That everyone has to work hard all their lives so that they can “retire”. That you have to be skinny. That you have to live in a certain neighborhood. That you have to have certain things. That you have to wear certain clothes. It’s so confusing. It’s so much to achieve and overwhelming. My take today is, Just Relax! That’s right. Just relax. It will be over fast enough. Enjoy the ride.

  You advice to relax is a great idea. Sometimes we get too caught up with rush, rush, rush. Our bodies and minds need time to refocus and relax.

Follow Your Heart

Almost everything–all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure–these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

Steve Jobs

Doing Something Grand

No Doubt Push and Shove Do something grand with your life. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It doesn’t have to be big and grand by the standards of most people. It just has to be big and grand to YOU. Feeling good about your self is grand. Having emotional and mental stability is important. I believe that having a practical sense of purpose is crucial to mental and emotional stability. You see, its not about how rich you are, but it’s about how grounded you are in loving what you make of your life. Your life, itself may be difficult. it may even be filled with tragedy or sickness. However, if you can figure out a way to stay stable/ figure out a way to maintain inner joy; figure out your reason to stay alive, your sense of purpose, you will survive and thrive. So do something grand, for you.

8 reasons why you should have high self-esteem @angieandthecool Network

my official email list where you can get updates and free stuff

8 reasons why you should have high self esteem.
1. Because you attract what you are. If you love your self, you are more likely to attract positive and loving relationships into your life.
2. Because your immune system is stronger when you feel more confident about yourself.
3. Because there may be people out there who really appreciate you, what you do, or what you are trying to promote.
4. Because people with high self esteem are less likely to be depressed.
5. Because people with high self esteem are less likely to tolerate abusive situations.
6. Because life is too short to spend it feeling negative about yourself. You have a short time in this life and why waste it feeling inadequate. Self loathing is literally a waste of your precious time.
7. Because believing in your self is a sign that you are sincerely grateful for what you have, who you are, and your abilities to succeed.
8. Because if you don’t believe in yourself other people won’t believe in you.

Thanks for reading.

Hope to see you soon.

  Dear Angela,
  Thanks for sharing your positive words. It’s true that we attract what we believe. Our brains want us to be right and search for things to prove we are correct.
  Do something to celebrate you today.

  Once again, your post has come at a crucial time for me. I have been suffering from severe self-esteem issues lately because of my disability and what genetics have done to my appearance, and once again here you are dragging my self-esteem out of the mud and back on to its feet.

Why Do You Do What you Do?

When I started singing I realized that I could do this forever. You know that tingly special feeling you get when you are happy. It’s like going on vacation after a long grueling week at work. You just feel refreshed and complete. Why do you do what you do? Does it complete you? Does it serve a worthwhile purpose for you? Is it because you love it? Or are you just trying to follow someone else’s view of what you should become? I get it. We DO have to pay the bills. I think every now and then, we should ask ourselves these questions. Let’s find the purpose in what we do. Let’s make it work for us and what we need in our lives. I know that I may never be perfect. I know that I may never be a superstar, but I know that I can set my life up to be perfect in my own way. I know that it is perfectly fine to live my life in dedication to my family and my emotional well being if that is what I choose. Even if it means not making as much money. Also if that is what I choose, I need to carry out actions, plans, and meet the right people to make it happen.
Keep working people.
Sincerely Yours,
Angela Shella

  I was told by many people that I should be on the stage, I use to pick up my guitar and sing, then I wrote my own stuff. But I knew in my own mind that although I may be a little better than most people, there are hundreds of people who can sing better than me, I know I’m heard them.
  
  I love to pick up my guitar and experiment, different chord sequences, then I find a poem I have written and try and match chords to the words, I have great fun, but its for my ears only, and, unfortunately maybe, my neighbours LOL. Thanks for dropping by my blog occasionally.

Rediscover the Beauty

Not everyone is fortunate enough to love the job they have. However, it is very feasible to learn to love your job and be a peace with where you are right now. Rediscover the beauty in it. Perhaps you just haven’t paid attention to the beauty of it. Maybe there is an opportunity in it that you have not explored. I often find myself, striving, looking and pursuing more stuff. Like right now I’m thinking that a trip to Italy would be perfect for me. But I am not in Italy. I look outside my window, though, and I see amazing simplicity. Trees, a warm sun, a beautiful sky, a cardinal, a gorgeous view of mossy rocks. Could this be my Italy. Could I be at peace with where I am right now. Today I will focus on being content and just enjoying what I have. Today is my day to rediscover the beauty of where I am. Oh look, there goes another cardinal! Fresh air. I am actually breathing in fresh air.

Gratitude

Music is so important to me. I think it is because it takes you to another place or ushers you into a deep place inside yourself. It can make you dance but it can make you cry. Today I would like to use music as a source of gratitude. I want to say thank you to all my friends, family, readers, and everyone who have touched my life. I just want to sit back and appreciate where I am right now and thank God for everything in my life at this moment. I still look up at the moon and thank God for science. Life is here and it is beautiful. Not perfect but I am thankful for it. My hope is that I can live in a spirit of gratitude. Those low points in my life are not easy. However, I believe that my attitude can shape my future and my present. Admittedly, sometimes I need help from wonderful people like you. I am so inspired by the art, blogs, photography, and articles that I discover. I love to learn. I am thankful for simple things, the complex things, the pretty, and the ugly. Thank you everyone who has expressed interest and signed up for free music and more information about my music. It is truly a gift. I do not take my talent lightly. I am grateful for it. Please take the time and tell me which song(s) you like best.

Your gratitude is infectious — the humility you show is inspiring — we should all be more grateful for what we have and not worry so much about what we don’t have: I don’t have everything I want, but I have everything I need. And for that I remain ever grateful. Thanx again for reminding me!

Get Over it and Move On.

I was disgusted with myself today. I had a horrible eating moment. Nonstop bingeing is never good. But it’s done, Angela. Get over it and move on. Wallowing in failure or weakness is a total waste of time. That not only applies to dieting, but it also applies to your career, your aspirations, and your dreams. Self-pity is not a road to success. You can’t go back into the past. Stop crying over spilled milk. Get up and live. Fight for a better future. So Here I go. I’m on my way out for a run. The future is bright.

  It’s not a total waste of time, if you try to figure out why you’re doing it. And that’s usually about “going back to the past” and asking yourself what it is you’re “hungry” for, that you’re not getting. Our emotions are not to be trifled with or written off. Staying in self-pity is no worse than trying to “suck it up” or otherwise hold it in. It actually is strengthening to cry and scream it out. Just sit still and write about it. Whatever comes, just write. Start with the question, what am I so hungry for? Why am I so angry? With myself? Some injustice endured as a child? Why do I feel so “empty”? Don’t discount what comes, just write, keep writing. It helps. When you start to feel some pull toward something you don’t want to do (addiction, escapism), grab the pad and pen and do it again. An effective route to the past, and re-gaining control. Things like moderate exercise and meditation, as good as they are, can ony be a temporary fix. The real deal actually is figuring out why we do these things, honoring our emotions by effectively expressing them (how ever many times that takes) and THEN letting it go. Also, if you’re on a low-fat diet, that’s not healthy. Dieting in general isn’t. There are proper ways of eating (low carb along with good amounts of healthy fat, protein) that don’t include deprivation of good healthy real food–not from a box. “Dieting” and all extreme diets are a form of self-abuse, a subconscious need to punish/destroy ourselves. The root of it is unhealed trauma, usually from childhood.

    Thanks for saying that. This works for so many people. For me, however, self-pitty keeps me frozen and makes me feel worst than I did before. I end up getting nothing done, feeling blue. But I see how it can be made to strengthen you, like you say. Thanks again for that thoughtful point of view.

Self-discipline @angieandthecool Network

Lately, I find myself asking for help and relying a bit too much on other people. After all, we all need each other, don’t we? But This morning I tell myself: It all boils down to self-discipline. Decide what you need to do. Acknowledge temptation. Just decide that you will resist it. Write the temptation down on a piece of paper. Ball it up and throw it away or burn it. Decide that today, your life is your own. No apologies. No excuses. No one to blame. No one to rely on. Today it is just you and yourself. Say that you are strong. List the actions you need to take. Take them. Just do it. Then get up tomorrow and do it again.

  Wise words indeed! I’m as stubborn as a mule and I really need to learn to discipline myself. For instance, earlier my beloved was napping on the sofa and I didn’t want to disturb him (I’m in bed recovering from a bad fall – sprained both feet and ankles and possibly broke a toe), so he awoke to find me downstairs, leaning on my stick and rummaging in the kitchen cupboards. I really shouldn’t have done that (ow) and must discipline some patience for healing into myself!

        thank you very much for the compliment. Athletes are amazing. They have to be fit physically and mentally. Their entire plan and goal is to win.
      - Missus Tribble 8:44 am on April 5, 2012 Permalink
        
        Yes, I really miss swimming, which I did competitively for some years, and I used to love hitting the gym and reaching all the targets set for me (surpassing them if I could). I’ve always had very physical jobs too, and could never sit behind a desk all day.
        
        I’ve had to become used to a far more sedentary lifestyle since I became disabled, but I set myself other challenges; I learned to cross-stitch, I’m learning to play the ukulele, I’m determined to be able to get to the corner shop on my own two feet again one day and I’ve taken up pickling/canning as a hobby so that I still feel useful around the house.
        
        I always did play to win, and that includes teaching myself some discipline, because while stubborn is sometimes good it can also be harmful. Thank you for the timely reminder to take things easy

Something New @angieandthecool

It seems so easy for some people to try something new. They seem fearless. Not me. It is difficult to go outside my comfort zone. I have been trying to get rid of my fear. Spending a lot of time trying to overcome it. It is so much easier to just stay in a job or circumstance that you know, even if it is not really what you want. My new strategy: Experience the fear. If I don’t, I will be frozen, and I will never try anything new.

  What is FEAR but:
  
  False
  Evidence
  Appearing
  Real
  
  So if it is false you can override it.

  Good strategy. I stayed in a job that didn’t “fit” for 20 years, afraid to step out. And now I wonder what I could have achieved had I not let fear control me. It’s a tough adversary, but you can overcome

  There is a cool anonymous quote I love: Life begins at the end of comfort zone. I know exactly what you mean. Fear is my personally enemy and I often try to go for things that scare me to death, only to come out victorious.

  Feel the fear and do it anyway. I understand exactly what your are feeling! I don’t know why fear is so strong in some and I do admire those who overcome it. You’ll do it. Whatever it is you want to do you will do it

Are You Positive?

Dear Friends, It is important to remember your self worth. Love yourself. Stay away from negative people. They will try and pull you down. They may not even know that they are doing it because they have been negative for a long time. It feels natural to them. You have to surround yourself with people who are positive. People who inspire you. People who are hopeful about the future. Read positive books. Seek out positive relationships. This positive attitude will rub off on you. Listen to positive music, oh yeah.

Persistently yours, Angela.

  I really like this post, Angela, and it’s something I’ve recently discovered – how to seek out positive people. It changes everything. I’ve noticed how my thought patterns have changed by staying away from folks who want to dwell on the negative. Thank you for such great words.

  True, but… I ashore you that there are times when all of us get negative. When it happens I sure hope my friends, true friends stay with me – and I call that life. But people who are all about negativity are something else. They need to want to change themselfs first with help from other than friends or collegues!
  - Angie and the Cool Network 9:08 am on March 20, 2012 Permalink | Log in to Reply
    
    You’re right. We all have negative moments. I just hope I don’t make negativity a habit. Something that is a way of life. And I am glad you reminded me. True friends will be there for you. That’s so important. A really TRUE friend should be cherished.

  Hi Angela. You are on the money. I worked with a fellow that I considered a friend. However he was always negative. He asked one day “How do you stay positive all the time?” I told him that I took a walk in the woods during lunch (instead of eating) and if he would join me I would answer his question about staying positive. By the time the walk was over I was exhausted and worn out by his negativity. He listed to nothing I offered. It was the last time we walked together but I was still friends with him hoping that he would get the idea. NO LUCK.
  We need to keep our own views and avoid the negative.

    Yes, something similar happened to me. Except, I found myself slipping into the negativism. I started complaining but I felt exhausted by it. I realized, I literally could not be around this person because they exhaust me.

Fire

Without creativity, I don’t think the world would be fit for anyone to live in. Creativity is like fire. That thing that inspires you in a nonstop, consistent, and persistent way. When it is in you, it burns. It spreads. You have to create when you feel the urge. If you don’t, it feels off balance. Unhealthy. Once you start, it catches on fire, again. Sometimes destroying old ideas in its path. I wrote a song the other day, just out of the blue. I felt a breeze come my way and I bet it came from God, something powerful, that’s for sure. It’s why I want to stay alive. What’s your fire?

Please download this song, Fire.

Persistently yours, Angela.

  Simply and beautifully stated – creativity truly is fire and life and the best in us shining through. Thanks for sharing this thought.
  
  My own fire is writing stories, sharing ideas and igniting and provoking new thought and imagination – something I think we need more of today when the sense of wonder has been somewhat desensitized.

  I love the analogy of a creative muse being a fire, because as you said, it can’t be stopped and can destroy old ideas to make way for new ones. In answer to your question my fire comes through when I’m skating, writing or taking pictures. I love it all!

Don’t Bury Your Talent

No matter what happens, you have to use your talent to the fullest. It doesn’t matter if you have 5 people following your blog or 5 million people. You have to share your talent with much care and enthusiasm. I have to sing my heart out regardless of how many people show up to the event. Whatever it is that you do, sweeping a floor, writing a book, designing clothes, being a parent, being a cashier, running a business, doing art, photography, music, etc; do it well. Give it your best shot. Don’t bury it.

You’re Not Perfect

Recently, I have discovered that trying to be perfect, for me, is simply a form of procrastination. You know that urge and desire of having to make sure everything is just right. So you wait. You wait again. Why? Because you have to get everything just right before you move forward. Or maybe it’s just fear. The next thing you know, time passes by and you have accomplished nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Persistently yours. Angie.

  Amazingly synchronous coming upon this … I was just thinking about my own issues with that perfectionism thing. It’s about control, and I’ve been getting this “hint” via the Chariot card (blogged on it this morning) in the Tarot. So this is an awesome message to get in this moment–to push on without worrying about every “t” crossed and “i” dotted. Thank you so much for sharing, and thanks for following my blog

  I think a lot of us hide behind perfection. It’s so far less risky than failure. I’m trying to force myself to give into creative impulses – create it, edit it until it’s “good enough” and get it out there.

  Very interesting, Angela. I’m always trying to be perfect, in general, and as a photographer, and your thoughts make me reflect if it’s a form of procastination, or even a form of fear. I will do some deeper thought about it…

  You have just described the reason it took my mother 15 years to buy a couch for her living room. I remained bare of furniture all that time because my mom was looking for just the right one. I kept telling her that she should buy just a regular couch while she decided on the right couch, because by the time she found it, she would have already worn out the first one.

Focus

On the heels of the Ohio school shooting America seems to deflect its importance by focusing on a Gay Marine’s homecoming kiss or on Angelina Jolie‘s Leg. There are so many important things happening in the world. I guess it is easier to deflect our difficult problems than to face them and solve them. I get it. Sometimes you just need to relax. But don’t let it distract you from your goals. What will you focus on today? this week? Are you committed to doing what you need to do?

  Couldn’t agree more. It’s so easy to get distracted, and I’ve probably gotten distracted a million times already this morning. But it’s all about focus. Great reminder!

5000 Hugs and Kisses

Facebook “friends” are all the craze. Would they “be there” for you? Would you “be there” for them? The beauty of life is that we can make it what we want. What if you really had 5000 friends. REAL friends. The kind you can touch, see, and literally spend time together. You would rarely eat alone. You would get or give alot of hugs and smiles. 5000 hugs and kisses. You would have amazing birthday parties every year. 5000 gifts. Real friends would encourage you and support you in your artistic and/or business endeavors. You’d be richer. You would be very busy keeping up with all the things that friends do for each other. Some of them may fall short of being “good friends” and you will have to forgive them. Perhaps even let them go. There will be lots of challenges and commitments but that’s less time to wallow in self-pity. And less time for self-pity is more time for growth.

  I had a major problem with Face Book “friends” so I stopped using the account. What next, mini You Tube reality shows of 5000 people we have once worked with or went to school with?
  
  I like following blogs much better *smiles*

    Yes. There is something deeper about following blogs. It seems so much more personal. Hey. Be careful, someone might actually steal your idea of the mini You Tube realty shows. Ha Ha.

  A long time ago we were reminded that the term ‘friend’ has become too casually used (perhaps not least by Facebook). When Talk Show host, Michael Parkinson, made some comment to his guest Mohammed Ali, in which Parkinson seemed to assume he was a ‘friend’ of The Greatest, Ali rebuffed him by saying he only had maybe 2 or 3 Friends. All others were ‘Acquaintances’. That was in the early ’70s. It really shook Parkinson, but the point was well made and a reminder that a true Friend is a friend in need – he/she is then truly a ‘Friend’ indeed. To be a ‘Friend’ implies some sort of real two-way equal commitment. I don’t think anyone can have more than a handful of such friends – and do justice to that friendship.
  But … ‘friend’ is such a nice word, that maybe it is not a bad thing to use it more freely now. It gives a warm feeling if nothing else. So, maybe the time has come in this 21st century digital internet age, to relax the strict definition of Mohammed Ali. He spoke in an age before the internet and even the PC. Perhaps we now need to qualify our ‘special friends’ in some way – such as ‘Real’ or ‘True’ Friends – and enjoy our less intense but virtual friends as well!
  - Angie and the Cool Network 6:45 am on March 5, 2012 Permalink | Log in to Reply
    
    Yes. “Virtual Friends” sounds like the new term. Could 2 people develop a two-way commitment online. Helping each other, spreading the word about each other, linking to each other, supporting each others art or business? Perhaps this may be the new virtual friend definition. You gave me alot to think about here.

  Yeah, I realized this and I was blessed that I started organizing mini reunions or get together and meet facebook friends to become real life friends.

The Big Stuff

Can you see the hidden word in this picture? Sometimes it is difficult to recognize the important things in life because we are preoccupied with the smaller things, those loud, bold, insignificant tasks we do that keep us busy. Sometimes they take us away from the big stuff that really matters.

Life can be beautiful. Some people just have that natural ability to pop out of bed and just smile to greet the world with 100% of their energy. Others have to struggle. That’s ok. Which ever type you are, find that thing that makes you pop out of the bed and greet the world with enthusiasm. “Hello world, I’m here!” Then help someone else feel inspired. Inspire someone. Don’t forget to pass it on.

Winter Turn June

When you are on the treadmill working out, you could use some motivation. Good music, a good speech, or even an audio book. Sometimes you have to talk to yourself. Tell your self, “you can do it” “Don’t Stop!” “You’re almost done” “Just a few more minutes.” I think you can talk to your troubles, your mountain, and tell it to move. You can speak things into existence. Some people prefer to climb the mountain, but moving it out the way may not be so hard. After all, if we believe we can accomplish our goals, we can. We may have to talk ourselves out of a rut from time to time. Rut as in “A fixed, usually boring routine”. Winter turn June.

Picking Up and Starting Over

It must be tough to pick up and start over. If you have ever failed at something, you know that it can either make you give up or make you stronger. It could allow you to learn from your mistakes. You can gather information about WHY you failed. Then you can redraw a new plan which takes into account the details of your previous failure. The idea is that maybe you can change your plan a bit so that you will succeed next time. Ofcourse, many people are too disappointed with themselves if (when) they fail. They give up. So they never get a chance to see the possible success that awaits them. Feel free to leave your thoughts on my wall or below this post.

  I was recently fired from a job in part because during my evaluation (on which I received the highest rating, an exceeds requirements) when I was asked what i needed to do my job with more joy I stated the need for information and sited some examples of things that could or would have gone more smoothly had i been given more information. I was berated for living in the past, that they were creating a new business paradigm built out of chaos. To me this boiled down to a waste of time as they reinvented the wheel over and over by refusing to look back and see what had and hadn’t worked and learn from it. Cliches become cliches because they hold truth in the their heart, those who don’t learn from the past are doomed to repeat it makes a good point!

  Love this post! Having been someone who moved constantly and was ALWAYS starting over, I know the literal meaning with the unpacking and the finding of the nearest grocery store and the anxiety over possibly getting lost and praying my kids would be OK and so on … Then we had a job loss and that defeat is incredibly hard to recover from and start over, especially when you self esteem and your identity is so tied up in it. I have a great friend in music who beat the path in LA for years and finally decided it was time to start again in Austin and is doing so well. Good for you for knowing the investment is worthwhile. AND beautiful voice!
