Here's Something to Feel Good About Today…

I've learned to take more and bigger risks, because really what do I have to lose?

Looking back I've never regretted any of my steps forward; my baby steps, my bold steps or my giant leaps of faith have all proved worthwhile down the road.

Today I wonder why I hesitated or waited much longer than I needed to, before taking the action I knew in my heart was necessary. What I know now is that risking and leaping are muscles that have to be exercised and utilized regularly. It's a lot easier to stay in good shape then to have to get back into shape after lapsing.

Fear can be debilitating, so can hesitation, procrastination, perfection, and doubt; my excuses ran the gamut. Now there is no time for excuses or for waiting or putting off until tomorrow. No matter what happens or doesn't, I have the inner satisfaction of knowing that I did my part by taking positive actions.

Is there something you have been putting off? If it

Crane"Hope is a thing with feathers that perches in the soul, and sings the tune without words, and never stops at all."
Emily Dickinson, poet (1830-1886)

When I knew my first marriage was over I could not yet envision the life I would create for myself and I felt hopeless. Then I made the decision that I would not only survive, I would thrive. One day at a time, I created a plan and slowly forged a path toward a brighter future.

Some situations may appear hopeless, but I believe that new possibilities always exist, waiting to be discovered in the shadows. For those times when I can't feel hope's presence, I reach out to a friend to help lift my spirits until I can rediscover it again for myself.

If you or someone you know is struggling through a difficult time, remember that where there is life there is always hope. Can you remember a time when things seemed bleak and what you did to rise above that adversity? Sharing your

  I have seen Will Smith in many of his films and know him to be a very talented actor. What I did not know until now is that Will Smith is an amazing example of positive and proactive thinking. In these short video clips he shares his wisdom on the power of believing in yourself, and never giving up on your dreams. When you do, the universe steps in to co-create with you. It's no wonder that Will is one of the most successful human beings on this planet.

  I especially love the HandPrints story he shares about his dad. At 12 years old his father asked him and his 9 year old brother to rebuild a brick wall in front of his business. At first the boys thought it was an impossible task. His dad taught him not to focus on the huge task of building the wall, instead Will learned the important lesson of laying just one brick at a time. Utilizing the best of his abilities, Will and his brother created a tremendous

One of the books/ movies that has positively impacted my life is The Secret. It speaks about the universal law of attraction and the power that we all have to co-create our reality based upon our thoughts and choices. The wisdom imparted through it's messengers reminds me that I am a powerful source of creativity and so are YOU!

If you have not heard about The Secret, I strongly suggest you take a look at the film or read the book. Here is a short video clip of Oprah on Larry King Live sharing from her own experience. Take a look and be inspired!

Exercise Can Be Fun!

I love long hikes through the hills of Northern California, and recently discovered something called The Bar Method that is really working for me. I asked my husband to give me the gift of the Richard Simmons Dancing To The Oldies videos for Christmas.. It may sound silly but it gets me up and moving and raises my heart rate. Who cares if I look ridiculous, it's just fun!

No one said working out has to be a drudgery. Take a look at this Jim Carey exercise video and enjoy!

Healthy, Happy New Year! For a wonderful surprise, watch the video below!

Confetti and KeysMy new year is sure to be filled with unexpected surprises! The uncertainty makes me feel insecure and anxious, but at the same time I'm excited by the spontaneity, growth and expansion that I know I'll feel!

As I welcome 2011, my greatest desire is to live fully and consciously in the present day. I will reflect on my past and hope not dwell in it. I will focus on my plans to reach my goals for the year, but along the way I will do my best to not regret my choices or to worry about things I can't control. I want to remember to fully appreciate each day and celebrate the relationships that I am blessed to have.

My new year's resolution is to enjoy "being here" and trust every day that I live fully and joyfully in the present, will help me to arrive happily at that "getting there" place. The only way for me to live is to trust that everything will unfold.

Blessed Friends

My belief is that the best way to find a good friend is to be a good friend. What we give comes back to us in kind. So give what you can and never take a friendship for granted. After all, where would you be without the love and support of your friends.
