Something someone forwarded me that was useful!!!

Go ahead and decide
You won't make your decisions easier just by putting them off until later.
When a decision is called for, go ahead and make it.
If you keep your options open for too long, those options will no longer be available to you.
Choose one option based on your best information, and go with it.
Give sufficient thought and consideration to your decisions, but don't drag them on endlessly.
The sooner you get started implementing a decision, the more effective you'll be.
Accept the fact that you won't make a perfect decision every time.
And remember that you'll have opportunities to adjust your approach if things don't work out the way you planned.
You cannot predict the future yet there is much you can do to intelligently and effectively prepare for it.
Instead of agonizing over what might or might not happen, get busy creating value that will be there no matter what happens.
Go ahead and decide. The sooner you decide,
the more time and energy you'll have to make the decision work out the way you intended.
-- Ralph Marston

Embrace the Power Within

Embrace the Power Within! Look inward to implement the change you are searching for outward. Claim the Power that is your Own.
Promise Yourself:
Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

Change

I would like to share something that I received several years ago from The Spirit School for Intuitive Arts, it is called Change.
"Change- what a wonderful thing. Regardless of the feelings around the word itself or the activity it portrays, it's a good thing, a positive thing- a sign of movement, progress, advancement- life moving on, change taking place- within and without. And not in isolation does change occur. A shift or change in one person creates waves of change in the universe.
Be a catalyst for good. Make change that stimulates positive energy. Be change, make change, embrace change. Act upon- don't just think about- you have the ability to change and create change. Any change when executed from a loving place in your heart and not the judging place of your mind, will have far reaching benefits throughout the universe. Starting with you!"
Embracing Change,
