The power of man has grown in every sphere, except over himself.
~ Winston Churchill
Power within you. What power do we wield? More than we use, more than we imagine. The power to choose, to pray, to rethink something, to act, to shape our own destiny.
Thats the power you have. We make choices all the time to take short cuts or the path of the road less traveled. Sometimes we choose to take the easy road because of the fear that road that has more work will not have any reward that deem the effort. How sad is that. We are afraid of even a little reward and we miss out on the fantastic journey.
Visualize your goals and plans this year.
Write them down your wants and make them into needs.
Shape your mind to see yourself accomplishing these needs.
These are no longer new years resolutions this year they are new year needs.
New Year Needs thats the motto and thats the way we need to look at them.
Losing weight is as important as keeping gas in the car to get to work.
Stop smoking is as important as drinking water.
Praying is as important as waking up.
Speaking gratitude is as important as loving your children.
You get the idea? New Year Needs !
Shape your thoughts and they will shape your actions.
We have the power, all the brain power you need between those two ears. Use it don't abuse it and shape your world with love and care and make that difference this year.
For yourself and those you love : ) Enjoy the day everyone!
The new affirmation for the week fits nicely here:
I am full of love. I am a creation made to contribute and share that which I am full of. I choose to share love. I choose to share a kind word. I choose to share a simple sincere smile today. Tomorrow I will do the same. I am a perfect creation. I have the power within to make a difference. I choose to do make a difference today.
This week 67 words to inspire and to affirm each day. Say these words of magic a few times and allow them to flow into your mind and subconscious.
Watch the power of these words. The power of I choose. The power of now and today.
Use these words to make your day and the day of others a bit better.
Smiles as always sent your way. Today and always. : )
