Quotes to Live By

Motivation
 
"Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you've got.

Life is a unique combination of "want to"and"how to"and we need to give equal attention to both.

The most important question to ask on the job is not "what am I getting?" The most important question to ask is "What am I becoming?"

Pity the man who inherits a million and isn't a millionaire. Here's what would be pitiful: if your income grew and you didn't.

We can have more than we've got because we can become more than we are."
 
- Jim Rohn

I am anew in Him.

Read this from my KLOVE Engouraging Word:

 

...I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past &looking forward to what lies ahead,
Philippians 3:13, NLT

 

I really love this verse, it makes me think of how we ask God for changes in life and we ask him for blessings- and yet sometimes we don't change what we are doing or want to change the person we have become, BUT what if we aren't the people that he ment us to be?

Wealth Secret from The Secret

Below is an excerpt from The Secret online, that shows ways to stay positive about money.

 

Each day, try to concentrate on one of these items, choose a new one each day- concentrate on them!

 

Watch your Wealth grow!

MONEY
Money is magnetic energy.
You are a magnet attracting to you all things,
via the signal you are emitting through your thoughts and feelings.


To become a powerful money magnet:

    Money
  • Be clear about the amount of money you want to receive. State it and intend it!
  • (not how much you can earn, but how much you want to receive).
  • Fall in love with money.
  • (most people do not love money, because they don't have enough of it).
  • Visualize and imagine yourself spending all the money you want, as though you have it already.
  • Speak, act and think from the mind set of being wealthy now.
  • (eliminate thoughts and words of lack such as "I can't afford it", "It is too expensive".
  • Do not speak or think of the lack of money for a single second.
  • Be grateful for the money you have. Appreciate it as you touch it.
  • Make lists of all the things you will buy with an abundance of money.
  • Do whatever it takes for you to feel wealthy.
  • Affirm to yourself every day that you have an abundance of money, and that it comes to you effortlessly.
  • Appreciate all the riches around you, including the riches of others. Look for wealth wherever you go, and appreciate it.
  • Be certain that money is coming to you.
  • Love yourself and know that you are deserving and worthy of an abundance of money.
  • Remind yourself everyday that you are a money magnet, and ask yourself often during the day, am I attracting money now or pushing it away with my thoughts.
  • Always, always pay yourself first from your wage, then pay your creditors.
  • (in that single act, you are telling the Universe that you are worthy and deserving of more).
  • Repeat over and over every day, "I am a money magnet and money comes to me effortlessly and easily".
  • Write out a check to yourself for the sum of money you would like to have and carry it in your wallet. Look at it often.
  • Do whatever it takes to feel good. The emotions of joy and happiness are powerful money magnets. Be happy now!
  • Love yourself!
Wealth is a mind set.
Money is literally attracted to you or
repelled from you. It's all about how you think.

Wishing you a peaceful sleep...

I ran into this quote tonight, looking for some encouraging words for a great friend that has cancer. He was saying how difficult it is to be patient right now, one month down & four more to go. I am not very patient, but I guess I don't even understand that type of courage and patience that treatment like that demands from you.

This quote stood out to me, I hope it soothes your heart and allows you to snuggle up in His presence and sleep well.

 

Have courage for the great sorrows of life

and patience for the small ones;

and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task,

go to sleep in peace. God is awake.

Victor Hugo (1802 - 1885)

Fake Saturday

Today feels like a fake Saturday. David and I enjoyed sleeping in together. I made breakfast, and were supposed to spend the day together. I guess that what makes it a real fake Saturday, we hardley get to spend Saturday's together anyhow. Knowing that I start work Monday, I really wanted to make the most of the next few days. David is already busy Friday and Saturday- now I find out he is busy tomorrow (Thursday as well) guess this was the one day to spend time together & now he's in the office & I am bored and alone.

Great fake saturday.

Maybe I'll be able to get the laundry done, and clean up after breakfast.

Employed: Scarey but Exciting

I Got a JOB!
Today, I was offered a job that I have been persuing for several weeks. I am scared but super ready for this exciting the new opportunity. I will be working at a local church at thier front desk. I hope we all get along in the office & that I will be able to figure it out quickly and accuratley. I have so many mixed emotions! YEAH! and crap. I really wasn't wanting to work full time so soon again, but I do think that it will be a good thing for our family. David and I have been struggling finacially and emotionally. I have too many really- he hasn't enough. Depending on the hours for the church, I think this might be the perfect fit for my spacey and scared brain. I know that we have to work on our finances before we are able to break free into our future.

Anyhow, yeah! I am been jobed.

Dreaming: Intuition or Just Weird??

This morning I woke up remembering a few parts of my dreams... my ears were bleeding & there was something wrong with my earring, it wasn't supposed to be there or it was like a slave tag or something. I bothered me, feeling uneasy about it all.

So I deciede to go check out what other people might interpret it as. Here is what the website Dream Moods says about these items:

Ears
To see ears in your dreams, suggests that you need to be more responsive or receptive to guidance and assistance from others. You may be relying too much on your own judgment and intuition. You need to listen more closely to what you are being told. Alternatively, it signifies your immaturity and lack of experience. I think that this could very well be. I have been kinda searching and pulling out of some depression lately. I feel like I can't trust myself and that I have got myself here, that I can't think straight anymore. I try and plan but don't DO. David has been telling me stuff that I don't want to hear about my Mary Kay business - that I haven't put enought time into it & that I dream too much.
To dream that you are cleaning wax from your ears, suggests that you are not listening to those around you. There may be something that you are refusing to hear. Are you turning a deaf ear?
To dream of pain in your ear, indicates that you will be receive some bad or offensive news. I am waiting on a job call back this week, so this makes me nervous. I really wanted and really need it!
Earrings
To dream that you or someone is wearing earrings, suggests that you need to listen more carefully and pay attention. This makes me think that I need to listen to myself more carefully, maybe it isn't David at all, but that I am not listening to myself. I am listening to the bad self, the grumpy, negative one, instead of the true self in me. The nuturing careing and self loving positive self.
Blood
To see blood in your dream, represents life, love, and passion as well as disappointments. If you see the word "blood" written in your dream, then it may refer to some situation in your life that is permanent and cannot be changed.
To dream that you are bleeding or losing blood, signifies that you are suffering from exhaustion or that you are feeling emotionally drained. It may also denote bitter confrontations between you and your friends. Your past actions has come back to haunt you. Women often dream of blood or of someone bleeding shortly before or during their periods and when they are pregnant.
To dream that you are drinking blood, indicates that you have a fresh burst of vitality and power.
Well, I surely wasn't drinking blood in my dream, but now I kinda wish I had. But the highlighted section does hit home right now. I doubt I am pregnant, but emotionally drained and confrontations have been current.
So, what if dreams are intuition what should I do? How do I change my listening? I do feel like I am being pulled in so many different directions, that I never get to do what I want, was planned or what I should really do. I don't want to seem selfish, if I don't have time for others, but I do understand that I do need time for myself too. Even if it is just to finish my laundry and call some customers.
But, what if dreams are just weird then I guess I should clean my ears before bed. ?
