Inspirational Notes:

The faith you have in yourself, and a strong degree of persistence,

can determine when (or if) you reach your goal. - Dr. Schulle

Some things to keep in mind as you are now on the road to success:

1. Don't wait for the "right time" to start, the right time is now!

2. There will always be competition.

3. There will be failure, but they are merely temporary setbacks.

You are still moving forward because you are persistent.

4. Some people might tell you, "You'll never make it". When you look

back, you'll see that those people are still exactly where you last saw them

Reach for the stars; you might get the moon.

God bless you Jade. You can do it. Carper Diem! ✝⚓☤

Years ago, I made a decision to exit the normal work force and work on my own. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done and it required a great deal of planning, but it was completely worth it.

Any time you want to make big changes in your life it always comes with some risk and that's something you need to be able to accept. The beauty of risk though is that it often comes tied in with potential reward. It is worth risking something small in the short term that will lead to massive long terms gain and happiness in your life or career? In my opinion, this is definitely a question worth asking and if you like the answer, take action

You have a choice. You've always had a choice. It's ok not to fit in. It's ok to follow your own path and see where it leads rather than arranging your life to fit someone else's concept of success.

Figure that out, and you'll find the adventure you're looking for. Figure that out, and you'll find happiness. 

Think carefully about what you want, where you're going, and what's important. Once you do, make a decision and rake action and you'll find the result much more satisfying.

Life is yours for the taking. You may not start with odds stacked in your favor, but you are only as limited as you allow yourself to be. Embrace the truth, and then render it irrelevant.

Start by reminding yourself that the past does not define you or your future. You get to choose how you want to apply those lessons from the past to your current life and move on.

My favorite mantra - It is what it is - works perfectly here. You can't change what happened, but you can decide what you take from the experience and more importantly, how you want to go forward. Getting to this place of acceptance allows you to weigh the pros and cons, determine your best course of action, and get on with your life. That alone will make you feel loads better.

Perhaps that't the real mark of winning: acceptance. Taking the bad with the good, the happy as well as the sad and accepting it for what it is - life. It isn't perfect and it's not always easy. But it's yours.

And you can choose to make it whatever you want it to be.

No matter how big your failure was, you shouldn't dwell on it. You should learn from it and move forward. I know it's easier said than done, but you can't change your past and the only thing you can do is to learn from your mistakes and never make them again.

-You're not organized

Now don't take offense - I'm one of the most unorganized people you'll ever meet, a talent I come by naturally. And I can tell you with great certainty that it most definitely my ability to be as productive as I'd like to be. After all, it's not easy to conquer the world, tame the universe, and be all that you can be when you're surrounded by clutter and chaos.

Being unorganized creates unwanted stress. It makes it difficult to concentrate, and it almost guaranteed that your schedule won't run smoothly. When I'm not organized, I'm forgetting things. I'm misplacing things. And I'm almost always moving in high gear because I'm running late. It's exhausting. All of these things suppress the creative flow and thus, your ability to problem-solve, daydream, and get things done.

As a result, even the smallest of tasks can become monumental challenges, and by the time you've finally muddled your way through, you're no longer operating in the peak state where the really good stuff happens.

So, if like me, your organization skills are lacking, it might be time to find a way to remedy that situation and instill a little order into your life. You may not ever become the poster child for neat and tidy, but even the smallest steps can make a difference and you'll be amazed how much you can accomplish when it doesn't take you 3 hours just to find a matching pair of socks.
