“All is well, when we make it so.”
LoVe LuCy
Of all the situations and circumstances we have in our lives, we may, at times, feel a bit powerless.
We may, in some moments, feel that no matter how much we know in our hearts, that we create our life, through our thoughts, it seems we are not even sure what we are thinking.

Of this feeling of powerlessness, it is great to know that we carry the power, within us, of how to get it back!

“The great thing about trying is that you can do it as many times as you need!”
LoVe LuCy

In our journey, and in our life as a whole, we definitely focus on getting things done, and getting things right.

We pay attention to detail, where it matters to us, and we do our best to be our best, and to make the best of our time.

With this, as individuals, we have our own set of individual deeds that we follow, based on our beliefs that we have carried with us along our way.

For those of you who have moved passed Myspace and graduated to the more sophisticated of the social networking sites (Facebook), there is a time and place for it; just like everything in life for that matter.

Status Updates- Do your friends need to know every minute of every day about what you are doing?  Do they need to know you are in the backyard, or relaxing, or just got your nails done, or are hungover?  Maybe. Do your friends constantly need to be reminded that you and “the love of your life” just bought a Christmas tree together?  If they are that amazing, how is it you are spending that time updating your status about it?  Although, I do recognize that with the Iphone and Blackberry, it is pretty convenient.  I am fortunate that in between all the silly updates, I gain some amazing knowledge from my “friends”.  And yes, all 272 of my Facebook friends are people I actually know. Ok, except for Kim Kardashian, but it is really a “fans” page. Either way, I am not deleting Kim and would like her for a “real” friend.

Do I want to find out that someone died, had a heart attack, or was in a car wreck through a status update? No, I do not; perhaps an email would be a better communication tool for such traumatic news.

There really is a person for every job.

I spent the first part of my Monday morning happily organizing my business notes, and goals for the new month, excited to get a fresh start to February, and to use whatever lessons I learned last month, to put to good use.

As the rest of my morning proceeded, unfortunately not much of what I was executing had much to do with my passion or the goals I had set out for the month, just hours before.

I didn’t feel so alive in that moment, and felt I needed more, to kick things up a notch.

“Of all the wishes I ever wished for, wishing others well, is my favorite wish of all.”
LoVe LuCy

I wish I had a bigger house.
I wish I didn’t have to work, to make my bills.
I wish I could travel the world.
I wish my hair was longer.
I wish my waist was smaller.
I wish my kids would stop screaming.
I wish my husband/wife/kids/boss/friends/neighbor/cashier/dentist/accountant/dog would be more pleasing.

“Time travels at its own pace, no matter how fast you try to go.”

Yesterday, I noticed when rushing to make it to grab my organic coffee, before hitting the office- I only had 2 socks in my sight, and didn’t have time to go searching for their partners. One brown and one white.

I quickly scanned in my mind if I was going to have to take off my boots, at any point throughout the day- before opting to run and buy more at lunch, just in case. I realized there is no part of my day, where I would have to part with my boots, in humiliation for my not so stylish circumstances.

I was clear to move forward.

“Sometimes inner wellness comes with leaving well enough, alone.”

It seems to be in our nature, that we are so good at noticing all the things that aren’t working in our lives.  So much so, in fact, that we almost assume that things are not in as good working order as they can be.

And if we do, in a moment’s notice, realize that something specific IS working out, especially, if working out really great; we assume it is just a matter of time before it, too, stops working.

To determine which action would suit your life, perhaps defining each of these words for you would be a good place to start.  Everyone uses these words and knows what they mean in general, but to really understand the words to apply them, requires a more in depth definition and review of them.

At the beginning of 2009, I made a couple of very sincere resolutions: I wanted to slow down the pace of my life and lighten up about things, and I wanted to work on being less judgmental.  It sounds like a short list, but for someone like me who tends to overdo the vigilance… these were actually quite difficult tasks to tackle.

It’s pretty sobering to read statistics showing that only 40% of people who set resolutions actually reach their targets.  It seems that if you want to get to your destination, you’d better have a really good plan for getting there!  Sitting down and making resolutions is a useful ritual in itself, a way for us to assess and temporarily deal with the things in our lifestyles that we want to change.  But if you want to see those changes actually manifest, it helps to be armed with some useful tips!

“If you’re happy, and you know it, share with friends.”

Do you ever notice anytime you ask people how they are, or what they have been up to, it seems as though their answers can be a little less than excited?
