Accepting beliefs...

“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”

                                                                         - Buddha

I've realized that your mind can set your limits or your own greatest potential. If you act from love, you tend to push your limits and if you act from fear, you set your own boundaries. You must act from a place of love so you soar beyond your own expectations! Here's to reaching new heights in the creation of your dreams! XOXO -

Perseverance...

"Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.” -- Marie Curie

You can spend your whole life buildin'
Somethin' from nothin'
One storm can come and blow it all away
Build it anyway

You can chase a dream
That seems so out of reach
And you know it might not ever come your way
Dream it anyway

God is great, but sometimes life ain't good
When I pray it doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway

  

Lyrics to Martina McBride's "Anyway"

Luck...

I don’t believe in luck. Luck = Leaving things to chance and outside world. I believe in being harbingers of our fate, taking action and creating our own path and destiny in life. Your life is yours to create – Don’t let others do it for you.

Our Deepest fear...

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Used by Nelson Mandela in his 1994 inaugural speech

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” - Steve Jobs

Never Dare to Compare

Never compare yourself to another woman, or you will always feel as if you are not tall enough, thin enough, pretty enough or smart enough. Instead, allow your inner beauty and unique features to help you to stand out from the crowd, and celebrate those differences that make you the best “you” that can be created! Relish in the joy of creating yourself each and every moment through your thoughts, your emotions, and your actions and live your dreams the way you want to create them.

How to celebrate you…

Look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are beautiful.

Do something special for yourself each and every day.

Listen to your inner voice before believing the voice and opinion from another.

Write your dreams and goals and put a deadline on achieving them.

Pray every single day and expect to hear an answer to your prayers.

Take care of yourself in the way you take care of others.

Honor your dreams and never feel you need to validate them to another.

Believe in yourself.

Your ripple effect

What ripple effect are you creating? What do your words and your actions create that send a ripple effect across the universe. Are you creating a flow of positive energy and inspiration or are you sending out negativity and fear? Choose to inspire another into making their dreams come true and encourage those who need hope. Comfort those whose eyes reflect loneliness and love those who are afraid to love themselves.

Believe in Yourself

Inspiring others...

"If you lack inspiration, then send it forth through your words and thoughts. If you lack faith, then send forth words of faith that will come back to bless you tenfold, and finally if you lack trust, then help another to believe in themselves and you too will be blessed. " - Suzy Bootz

"If you are not experiencing feelings of self-love , then you are the only soul who has control in bringing love of self into your experience. How? By going within and seeking Source energy, and there you will find the answers to your prayers."  Excerpt from Through the Eyes of Truth.
