Faith & Confidence

If I am morose and discontented, I will deliberately cultivate happy thoughts.
If I am prone to criticize, I will seek out what is good and pleasing and fix my mind on that.
I will replace my fruitless doubts and fears with faith and confidence.
If I am bored, I will learn something new -- even a new way to make the same old chores more enjoyable.

Work Smart

I will work smart today. I will take my time and get whatever help I need. I will also do what I can for myself. (Karen Casey, Keepers Of The Wisdom, 3 October)

There are too many things to do and not enough time to do them all. (Edith Huey in Keepers Of The Wisdom by Karen Casey, 4 October)

I am willing to do the work I need to do to learn more about myself. (Iyanla Vanzant, Until Today! 16 October)

Today, this very day, why don't you think of something that takes a bit of extra time to do and do it. (A Gentle Spirit, 22 September)

Wonderful Things

You can't learn how to be strong and patient and brave, if you've only had wonderful things happen to you. (Mary Tyler Moore in Chicken Soup For The Father's Soul, p. 179) 24 June 2012

This is life and I must learn ... [to live it.]
