When your values are clear to you, making decisions becomes easier. - Roy E Disney

This is an exercise that I went through with my Journey class recently and it’s super powerful. Everyone has values… good, bad, or neutral. They drive everything we do and when you want to level up in your life, you have to know what’s really steering the ship if you ever want to change course.

Answer these questions:
1. What do I spend the most time doing?
2. What do I find myself thinking about most often?
3. What do I spend my money on?
4. Where do I find myself giving the most effort?
5. What causes me worry or pain or anger, especially if I don’t have it?
6. What qualities of character do I notice and admire in others? What kind of people do I like to hang out with?
7. Prayerfully reflect on your answers - ask yourself: what do I find to be really important at this point in my life?
Values are things you are taking action on in life. 
Ideas are things that you want. 
Ideals become values only if they are things you live out.

I’d love to know what spoke to you today about this lesson? If you gave it a try, etc.

Any time is the best time to use affirmations. Fill your mind with them throughout the day.

It is so easy to get caught up in the hype of the holidays. It is the most magical season of all, right? Family, friends, co-workers, and neighbors are eager to get together, exchange gifts and meals. Late nights are spent out and about as you finish up last-minute shopping or go to a holiday party.
Amidst the whirlwind of the holidays, how do YOU take time for yourself? What do you to for self-care to keep yourself physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy?

Today we discuss how to envision what is about to happen, how to identify your roadblocks to success and create a custom plan to get around those roadblocks. I hope you are able to find something that helps you get through the holidays a little brighter & filled with more joy than before.

Life has 2 rules, 1 - never quit and 2- always remember rule number 1.
Wouldn’t it be great if life did have a rule book? A manual we could refer to in order to live our best life. A path for us to follow always that gave us a pre-determined destination of our liking?
I can’t give you that, but I can give you some simple rules to live by today that can help you find the path God’s made for you and walk it with more joy.

1. Make peace with your past
2. What others think is none of your business
3. Time heals most things, be patient
4. Don’t compare your life to others. No 2 journeys are the same
5. Stop thinking so much, the right answers will come along.
6. No one is in charge of your happiness but you!
7. Smile, you don’t own all the problems of the world.

These 7 rules are not going to solve all of your problems, but they will help you avoid some bigger ones maybe going forward. I hope you learned something in this episode and share it with a friend!

"Mediocrity is a region bound on the north by compromise, on the south by indecision, on the east by past thinking, and on the west by a lack of vision." ~John Mason
