It isn't what happens to us in life that creates our joy, but rather how we respond to what happens in our lives.
Challenge the person you think you are in order to unveil the person you are capable of becoming
If becoming your most extraordinary self doesn't inspire you, if claiming your greatness doesn't get you moving in the morning, if you don't think you are worthy of going after your best life, then dedicate this year to someone else and make it your best for them.
Our pain can be our greatest teacher. It leads us to places we'd never go on our own.
I have a choice: Do I want to align with the GREATEST VISION OF MYSELF or Do I want to align with my EXCUSES?
What you can't be with, won't let you be.
Resentments lodge inside you, causing you to lose touch with your inherent worth, your joy, and - more important - your God-loving heart.

The mind can't take you where your heart longs to go.
There is not one life that doesn’t add tremendous value to the whole. Somewhere inside of us we know this to be true; we hear the call to head in the direction of this bigger life.
