The positive encouragement is enlightening against the dark grey background of fear. Where all is dark, the light shines the brightest. Words of inspiration, not desperation. Words of laughter, humor and encouragement. Words of faith.

It's a New Year - say hello to 2020.

What fuels you to do the things that you do? When you lie awake, dreaming of all that you desire in this life of yours

Is it the official education or certificate of accreditation? Is it life experience, or learning from the school of hard knocks? Is there even one right answer? Is one more important than the other?

Are you ready for it....

As I write this article, it's a little unsettling at how many people are lacking true happiness in their life. They search, but can not find it.

Just so we are clear, these are not literal tips to show you how to get your rear into the drivers seat of your car and drive, literally, anywhere in life. If you need those kind of tips - we might all be in trouble, or at least those on the roads around you!

Let me clarify. I'm not talking about a PLANK as in you're on the floor, sweating it out, strengthening your CORE as you shake like a leaf trying to hold form. (or is that just me shaking)...anyway.....

Happy New Year to you! 3 days into the new year - how are you doing on those New Years Resolutions?

What IF we could be unoffendable in everyday life. Ya know -  take the high road, walk away, be the bigger man or woman, shake it off, let it roll off, put anger, resentment and frustrations aside and forget about it.  (I'm imaging those last 3 words "Forget about it" spoken in a strong Jersey accent - it sounds more exciting that way, so go there with me.)

Little things that roll off our tongue - intentional or not ..... Oh the power of words.

First time in Anchorage, Alaska last week.  On the way to the airport from the cruise port, there is apparently only ONE ROAD to get you there, it's a one way street with a tunnel over 2+ miles long.  As I found myself on this long and dark journey, 

This is not about christianity or religion - this is about you believing in someone or for something when everyone else thinks its impossible. The mind is a powerful thing.

Making a noise - this isn't about singing, choirs, being musically inclined at any level and not even about passing gas (my Dad would laugh at that one and likely "make a noise"  because he thought that's what this was going to be about)

We all have things that we are naturally good at - call it our talents - you know, just you being you in your natural state. It's the things that makes you tick.
