Do you have any regrets? Have you ever thought that if you had gone left instead of going right things would be different?
Maybe you could have fixed this, stopped that… Why do we do this to ourselves? This is where the pain comes in… When we re-visit the past we can experience feelings of guilt and feeling fear always comes from worrying about the future… Hence the value of the present moment… For when we are living in the present moment we are dancing with the universe…
Lets’ bring up the subject of Destiny vs. Choice… In life is it Destiny that decides our fate or our free will? If you believe it’s choice, then you regard your life as a product of your own decisions… If you believe in destiny, you believe that there are greater forces defining your life’s story…

Do you give up at the first sign of opposition? “One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is over taken by temporary defeat”- Napoleon Hill- Author of Think and Grow Rich…
More than five hundred of the most successful men this country has ever known told the author their greatest success came just one step beyond the point at which defeat had overtaken them….

Ever heard the saying “actions speak louder than words?” We’ve talked about the importance of communication in all of our relationships, but today I’d like to dig deeper into the expressions of love…
Just as there are many languages spoken on the planet, so, too, there are languages of love. The languages of love are not always expressed in words… Saying “I Love You” is one thing, but to show it, is another… There is so much that can be expressed silently through the actions we take.

We’ve all heard the term “When one door closes, another one opens”… That’s because we closed one door before we opened another…Here’s another analogy… Let’s take a look at the transition… When you are climbing up a ladder you can’t move up to the next step until you take your feet off the last one, so why is it that we seem to think that we can hold one door open as we open another?

How do you know if you are in a co-dependent relationship? In co-dependent relationships we need to be needed… Whether you have a health issue or you are offering financial support, both parties involved are avoiding their own unhappiness and personal issues… The thought behind this is “If I keep you in need then you’ll never leave me.” This type of exchange is grounded in neediness and control rather than love and respect…

Are you open to change? Are you ready to change? So many of us are afraid of change, but what are we so afraid of? The unknown perhaps…
The definition of change: To make different; cause a transformation; an event that occurs when something passes from one state to another; losing one’s original nature; become different in essence.
Change is inevitable. Life is about transitions, yet many of us attempt to live in a ‘don’t rock the boat’ environment. Most of us like to feel a sense of safety and security in our lives.
