Chin up! Look to the skies and let the stars put some sparkle back into your eyes. Now? Rise. Reach out and embrace the possibilities that await (they’re there, even if you cannot see them yet). If you need a break, take it, but don’t get stuck there. Then, rise again. Your future awaits.

It IS okay to sometimes say, “No.” Really! If your plate is full of stuff to do, and you don’t have room for more, you’re actually right to decline when someone wants to add more stuff. A kind way to say it, though? That’s what you need? Oh. Gotcha. Say: “I have so much to do that I don’t want to disappoint you if I can’t get to it, so now isn’t a good time. I’ll absolutely let you know when things let up a bit, because I do love to help.” See? You’ve got this.

If all that deep focus on what you want doesn’t seem to be helping stuff come to pass like you feel it should, please don’t despair. There may be something even better in store for you that you haven’t yet even imagined. A passion you haven’t yet discovered. Keep going, keep growing, keep seeking and keep being just as happy as if you already have it in your hands… because you absolutely deserve the joyous ecstasy that comes along with being ready for the good stuff coming your way.

Trains. Planes. Back seats of cars. Living rooms in mansions and powder rooms at the local dive. Those are all places that you’re connected to your spiritual side, your beliefs, and your soul. Remember: you bring a deep and fulfilling contact with “all that is” no matter where you go.

Take the challenge. Step outside the comfort zone. Do the thing that scares you a little. Not only will you feel flipping awesome that you tried (regardless of how it turns out), but each adventure you go on reveals more about your purpose and your splendid inner self.

Just for a moment, could you just stop being so outstanding and breathtaking? Oh, wait… that’s the one thing you really fail at, isn’t it? You couldn’t stop being exceptional even if you tried.

You do extraordinary things in your own amazing way. Sometimes those things are big and bold. Other times, simple and authentic. Still, each choice you make, each action you take (no matter how small) has the potential to rock this world with ripples of dazzling, bubbly delight.

Confused? Troubled? Unsure? If you practice quieting your mind (it can be a little hard at first, but you CAN do it), to silence all the thinking and overthinking, you will tune into your soul. You’ll find that you’ve known exactly what you’ve needed all this time. It’s about listening to the intuitive voice in your heart rather than the worried voices in your head. Let your soul (the REAL you) whisper wisdom to you.

There’s a fire of determination inside of all of us. Yes, even in you, Friend! Sometimes it burns dimly or simmers down to embers, but it is still there. Reignite that fire in your hearth when adversity comes knocking at your door. Your problems won’t be able to stand the heat that you bring.

Passions pursued and failed are far more valuable than passions that never left your dreams. Seriously. Don’t let fear, frustration or what anyone says stop you from acting on what you desire to achieve. Go from little spark to blinding light. Dream and do, Friend. Haters? They’re jealous. Show ’em what you’ve got!

Those old roads don’t lead us to new destinations. Been there, done that — got the T-shirt AND the Bobble-Head? Yup. When we keep trying to get down that same old rugged path just to prove we can, we may find ourselves getting stuck in the same places. Break free and choose a new road to travel. Or, create one. There’s a whole world out there of passion and purpose, waiting to be discovered.

When it rains, it pours and that may be exactly what we need to wash away the yucky stuff. Don’t be afraid to step out into the downpour. Perhaps there’s an opportunity to cleanse yourself in the storm.
