Eye on the Prize

We often have several different wants and can lose traction on obtaining them if we don't see immediate results.  In my experience, it is best to monitor and evaluate the steps in motion; doing so will help to ensure you are on the correct path and also help you to determine if there are any adjustments in your plan that need to be made. 

Talking about wants won't help you to obtain them.  Determining exactly what your wants are, building a plan and putting the plan into action will get you what you want.  If you want something, don't think about how nice it would be to have, think about how you're going to get it!

Food for Thought: Pointing a Finger

Why is it that whenever something doesn't go our way, our immediate response is to find someone or something to blame.  It is such a common human response it disgusts me!  When something doesn't go the way we planned, we shouldn't be looking for something or someone to blame, we should turn the finger around and point it at ourselves.  How can we better ourselves in life if we are constantly relying on another source to place blame.  If we can point the finger in the right direction (towards ourselves) we can then evaluate why we're in the predicament we're in and live and learn from that.  Why not take the time to evaluate yourself and better yourself from this? 

If we take the time to evaluate ourselves and use those experiences to learn and become a better person, it can make any accomplishments that much more rewarding.  In fact, it may even be the cause of more positive occurrences in life!

LA Sunshine & Style

After years of observing the Hollywood stars in their over sized sunglasses, I decided it was time to try a pair of my own.  I always thought the shape and size of the accessory was a bold fashion statement; after purchasing and sporting my own pair of trendy, over sized glasses, I came to the conclusion that it isn't a fashion statement, it pure genius!  The glasses make your face look slimmer!  With a round face like mine, I can't believe I didn't think of this before they did!
