Christmas Season- Quiet Time Serenity

Be careful with whom you surround yourself....

 This is something that doesn't end with high school.    Remember.... Friendships will continue to change and evolve as you get older, and it gets increasingly important to surround yourself with people you admire and respect.  Surround yourself with the kinds of people you want to be like.  As much as your parents and guardians instill core values and lessons, friends are highly influential.  Be aware of how they're influencing you!

Shifting Perspective sounds easy. But it's not. It takes practice!!

 EXAMPLE: Old Negative Belief:   "I'm no good at spelling..." New Effective Belief:  "Every time I practice spelling new words with flash cards, I get better at spelling!" Your thoughts are the roots of your destiny.  Your next action results from your next thought.  You owe it to yourself to improve the quality of your thoughts! "A man is but the product of his thoughts... What he thinks, he becomes." Mahatma Gandhi

The Recipe of Success!

I could hear something being dragged across the floor.   After a long pause, the door opened.      A small woman in her 90's stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, she looked like somebody out of a 1940's movie.       By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no one had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets.      There were no clocks on the walls, no knickknacks or utensils on the counters.  In the corner was a cardboa...
