How do I make it stick?????

Consistency... What is consistency? The dictionary says that consistency is steadfast adherence to the same principles, course... It also says that consistent is constantly adhering to the same principles, course... So, what stands out is steadfast and constant.  Think about those terms.  They are very simple in definition but yet not easy in application.  The name of the game is what both constant and steadfast mean in relationship to time.  There is a very critical equation that can assist in understanding your success. C x T = S or Consistency x Time or over time = Success.  As you all know this can and does apply to anything that you do consistently, desirable or undesirable.  If you eat cup cakes every day consistently over time, then you will be successful in gaining weight and being nutritionally unhealthy.  On the other hand, if you save money consistently over time, then you will be successful at being financially independent.   Believe this...YOU are the Influencers that will influence others.  YOU have set the ground work, the foundation.  Your commitment is much recognized.  

Is it the End or the Beginning...

Sitting here today with power outages, business closings, people displaced, etc. shows us how fragile our new technology enveloped lives are.  It's not that it is bad, it is about the recognition of how blessed we are. When we realize how our lives are attached to the technology we live with and see that we still are so blessed even when some of those things are taken.  There are those that live with much less and are able to live their lives in that situation. We have been created to adapt to our circumstances. This means that our existence is not identified by our circumstance. We have been created with so many blessings, physical mental and spiritual, that our existence is completely defined by who we have been created to be. Those blessings or gifts/talents show a true picture of who we really are. So, let's count our blessings even in times of difficult circumstances.

A look in the mirror...Reflection

Take a look in the mirror...Ask yourself, am I stepping into the process that is placed in front of you?  This is not to add more locks to the chains that the fleshly world places on you.  

Rolling with Momentum...

Wow...Time flies. This weekend flew by. Posting this turned from Saturday to almost Tuesday morning.  The coolest part about sending these thoughts out is that they are never too late. If we trust our creator then the fact that we are even doing it is enough. Showing up at all is enough.  He has started many things in us and if we Trust Him then we will follow through.  

Forth Coming...Remember is the act of applying past understanding to the present process.

Here in Virginia it is an incredible Sunny Sunday morning. Memorial Day weekend cookouts, family time, get togethers, etc...It's a time that we use to enjoy each others company. Memorial Day weekend is also a time for remembrance. A time to be thankful for those that gave their lives for us. Think about that, individuals that went into harms way with the knowledge that they likely will not return. And to top it off, they did it for others. I think this is a very worthy reason to take time to remember.  When you think about that you cannot help but be inspired.

Third entry, refocus and begin to really discover your why...Your goal.

Hope this finds you having had a great week.  Looking at all the blessings we have...breathing, reading and reasoning, ability to believe, the fact that we are a part of something larger than ourselves, we are not alone...we are not isolated.
