You were created on purpose, for a purpose with gifts, talents and abilities to be used regardless of what you have been through. This means, you have been “Approved.” No matter how you may be feeling right now, no matter whose approval you haven’t received, know that you can still live your dreams. There’s nothing…

Burn The Box
How many times have you been told to think outside of the box? Have you ever thought about burning the box? Well, I did. Literally, there is no more box and I choose to live without limits! You see, the reason I had to burn my box is because even though I was thinking outside…
Modifications in the Making
As I continued to think about this new year, I have come to the realization that it is not about being a new year, new you. Instead, it is and has always been about Modification! I am a professional behavioral assessment trainer, similar to the Myers-Briggs, but more detailed. In my training sessions, the first…
Four More Days
As I prepare for the New Year, I realized I still have four more days in this year. Four more days to accomplish one more “something” that I set out to accomplish in 2012. Four more days to make new friends. Four more days to get started on that workout routine and possibly lose some…

Goal-Setting
I thought I had done a great deal towards completing my goals for 2009 until I met with a Marketing Consultant on Friday. I wanted to have her help me develop some marketing pieces for a folder that was designed for my business a year ago. Little did I know that this wasn’t going to…
