A time to say goodbye to what has been and to usher in the
new; what do I want to bid farewell to
in my life? Perhaps, resentment, fear,
and belittling myself, as well as, all or nothing thinking and the beliefs of
expecting the worse rather than the best and that I am alone. These are things that definitely have not
contributed to my well-being this year.
I’d also like to let go of the self-centered, ‘me-first’ attitude that
disconnects me from others and prevents the growth of compassion in my life.

MIRACLES SURROUND ME
Miracles abound all around us. There are times when I feel stuck in the mire
of ‘everyday-ness’ and lose my awareness of amazement and wonder. I rush around barely noticing the world
that supports my being. I
become enmeshed in the internal turmoil of my mind and forget to see further
than my own nose. When I get lost in the
illusion of my separate-ness and wrapped up in the drama I create, I
find myself stressed out, anxious, discouraged, and uninspired. Eventually I am stopped in my tracks and
unable to continue moving forward.
Today, rather than wearing myself out in
reactivity and busyness, I choose to slow down and notice the everyday miracles
around me. The refreshing touch of a
cool, crisp breeze that invigorates my senses, the bright sunshine that dances
on the surface of the water and warms my face, the clean air I breathe that energizes
and nourishes my body, the presence of a creative life force that radiates
everywhere I turn, the soul-connection I experience with all that is, has been,
and ever will be; yes, miracles surround me this day. I celebrate the real ‘everyday-ness’ that enfolds
me now.Friday, December 28, 2012
MINDFULNESS
Words of warning and limitation threaten to overwhelm me:
“You won’t be able to”, “You aren’t being wise”, “You need to think about”,
“This isn’t going to work”, “Aren’t you worried about”, “What makes you so
special”. . . I have caved in to these
powerful internal and external voices in the past and lived in fear and
worry. How do I know they aren’t right? Perhaps I’m being unpractical. Maybe I should listen.
It is so difficult to silence all the voices coming from
different sources that speak their wisdom and warnings. To live present and now, even for a brief
time, I need to unplug from the noise and clutter of my mind. My mind resists silence and is continually
trying to find a way out.
It is time to stop the struggle. Fear does not serve me. It closes the doors to growth, creativity,
spontaneity, and the delight of surprise.
I refuse to live in deprivation and regret. I choose to follow the path of open
mindedness.

CONFIDENCE
In quietness and confidence is my strength!
A still and centered heart, an open and listening mind, these
are the necessary elements to live in this moment. Worry and anxiety float down the river of
life that flows through me today. I wave
them on their way and return to silence.
Concern about moving forward and taking care of business, along with,
fear of missing out on valuable opportunities suddenly show up and are quickly dismissed as I
return to this moment and breathe.
Open heart and open mind. . .
Providence surrounds me supplying all of my needs. The universe supports my being. Thoughts of deprivation and limited supply
are illusions. I am where I belong. In this moment I have what I need. The path unfolds before me, one step at a time. I will not be seduced by ‘what if’s’ and ‘if
only’s. I choose to trust without seeing
the way. I relinquish the need to
control the journey. I step forward in
confidence knowing I am not alone. I am
connected and belong. There is space for
me to fill and work for me to do. I step
forward in quietness and confidence.

BEING BORN AGAIN
I love the idea that every day we rebirth ourselves. Today I will make decisions and choices that determine
what I give birth to being . I can bring
compassion and kindness or meanness and a Scrooge-like attitude. Watching Christmas stories on the Hallmark
Channel this year, I see over and over people in all kinds of situations
transformed from sad, lonely, selfish, hurting, pessimistic lives to being
filled with the ‘Christmas’ spirit.
I choose today to remain aware of what the nativity scene in my life looks like today. I will recognize and have gratitude for those who serve as midwives during my labor. I will also remember others who might
need assistance in giving birth to their own existence and rejoice at the
beauty of what is being born in so many this day. What an amazing celebration of the divine in us and with us. Namaste.
Monday, December 24, 2012
It is so difficult, at times, to stay rooted in this present moment
and trust in God’s providence. Are my needs really important when there are so
many others in the world who have less than I do? Look at the homeless suffering in the streets,
those I see on street corners every day; the refugee camps; the starving children; those living in war or disease . . .
Is there really more than enough supply to go around? How can I expect that I deserve any more than
they do? What right do I have to
imagining an existence of ‘enough’ or a dream of surplus?
I cannot understand the flow of supply and demand or unjust
distribution. It is so far beyond my
ability to make sense of it all. I can
only be in this present moment believing that in the midst of contrary evidence
THERE IS ENOUGH. It is with humility and
gratitude that I recognize the gifts of providence in this moment.
Sitting here and now I
realize I have what I need. I am
breathing in enough oxygen to satisfy my body’s needs and my body provides me
with a functional container for my spirit.
I am in a safe and comfortable space.
I have food and water. I have
freedom to express myself. I am loved by
a wide array of caring hearts. I rest in
peace and the presence of ‘I am’ in what is.
In this moment my needs are met and I offer gratitude for grace and
blessing.
So I unfurl my greedy fingers and open my clenched fists,
recognizing that I do not need to grasp onto what I imagine as lack of
resource. I relax knowing what I need in this moment rests
in my open hands. I release anxiety,
worry, and even hope knowing that these are feelings which belong to yesterday
and tomorrow. In this moment, I have enough and that is the
only reality that truly exists. I
breathe in what I know to be truth.

SWEET MOMENTS
Today I choose to look beyond the negativity that invades my
day and recognize the moments of sweetness that are present. The warmth of the sun shining in a bright
blue sky, the softness of a warm blanket, the kind note expressing love, the
invitation of a friend to play, the relief of a body that has no pain, the fun
of watching a curious kitten, the taste of a cup of hot chocolate, the beauty
of my favorite piece of music, the smile of a stranger in passing; there are
moments of kindness and delightful surprise all around me. So much fills my cup today.
Moments of goodness surround me if I but notice them. It is so easy to focus on moments of dissatisfaction
and develop a tunnel vision that blocks out everything else. I
become wrapped in a dark cloud of frustration, anger, hurt, and disappointment unable
to see the light. The glass is half
empty and although it is a temporary experience it feels never-ending.
Saturday, December 22, 2012
PUTTING WORRY TO REST
Today, when I become apprehensive or anxious, I will reassure
myself with the larger picture and remember all the yesterdays I wasted time
stressing over. I will choose to be
aware and present to the moments of this day and release the negative thoughts
that would prevent me from recognizing the gifts of NOW. I don’t want to look back tomorrow and say ‘I
wish I hadn’t wasted so much time then with fretting and worrying.’ I refuse to allow worry to rob me of another
day. I can breathe, center, release, and
be.
Will the things I worry about today matter tomorrow? I have had experiences that have shown the
answer to this question to be NO. There
have been many times when I have upset myself by worrying about not having
enough resources, and every time I have ended up with what was needed. Perhaps not excess but certainly what was
needed. I have stressed myself out
thinking about not being enough in certain circumstances, like taking tests or
dealing with people or solving problems, and have found in the moment that I am
more than adequate for the task at hand; perhaps not exceptional or perfect,
however, enough. I have created intense
distress by imagining some events as having ‘life shattering’ importance and
then after they have passed, find that they are mere blimps on the radar
of my life and certainly not life altering.
Friday, December 21, 2012
PRACTICING CONTENTMENT
I choose to practice contentment today, acceptance of who I am, what I
have and where I’m at. It is possible to
want to be someone else, have what someone else possesses, or be at a different
point in my life; however, I only increase distress and dissatisfaction when I
compare myself to others. This tends to
serve no purpose. Occasionally, I am
motivated to make necessary changes as I observe what works for someone else or
admire the way someone handles something.
There are moments I long for the past, but this only leads to sadness
and depression, so I will bless the past and release it. Other moments I long for the future, but this
only increases my anxiety and stress, so I let go of it and trust my life is
unfolding as it should.
Throughout this day I will mark with awareness and gratitude
moments of satisfaction and contentment.
Recognizing the gifts I have, the people who accept and love me, the
work that challenges and inspires me, the beauty of nature and the
opportunities to enjoy life I experience, a body that serves me well, a mind
that is curious and open, and a heart that cares. How satisfying it is to be today.
Thursday, December 20, 2012
SLOWING DOWN
I can take my time and attend to one thing at a time. When circumstances or people push me to hurry
up or attend to more than I am comfortable handling in the moment, I have a
right to speak up and set a boundary. I
can take care of myself and ask for what I need, whether it is more time,
patience, understanding, or help.
I recognize there are many reasons I choose not to take care
of myself. Sometimes it’s about people
pleasing and not wanting to disappoint others.
So, I overcommit to more than I can handle. Other times, it’s about taking care of another’s
responsibility and rescuing rather than empowering them to do their own work or
allowing them to face the consequences of their own choices. Occasionally, it’s about my own fear of
failure and so I over-compensate to be ‘better than’ in an effort to avoid
being seen as ‘less than’. As I fail to
know my own limits, others can come to expect from me more than I am able to
deliver. Then I find myself in the familiar
territory of overwhelm, panic, disappointment and stress.
Whatever the reason for not caring for myself, today I choose
to accept my needs, set clear boundaries, and show myself and others respect. I will address one thing at a time
acknowledging that I although I am limited, I am enough.
Wednesday, December 19, 2012
HOPE SPRINGS
I bring hope to this day.
Hope that it will hold a chance for connection to others in meaningful
ways. Hope that there will be time for
work, time for rest, time for being with and time for being alone, time for
dancing and time for standing still. Hope
I will be forgiven when I offend and I will forgive when I am offended. Hope for peace in the midst of conflict,
compassion when it’s easier to strike out, patience during the rush to solve
problems, and faith that there are answers to the questions I ask today, I just
may not be able to see or understand them yet.
Although there may be darkness surrounding me today, I have
hope that it will not last forever and light will eventually appear. Hope is a strong anchor in the storms of my now.
Tuesday, December 18, 2012
WHAT WILL TODAY HOLD?
What challenges will face me today? I do not know. What I do know is I have the strength, the
wisdom, the support and the wherewithal to address whatever comes my way one moment at a time. Even if I feel small and incapable, I will
wrap my arms around my heart with reassurance of my enough-ness. I will open my mind to other’s suggestions
and comfort so that I can be companioned today and walk together instead of
alone. I will pause to breathe and reflect with
gratitude for the times of beauty and wonder I experience. I will remember I don’t have to solve
tomorrow’s problems now and remain rooted in the present. I will offer forgiveness when it is needed
and bring compassion and acceptance into my encounters. I will not forget that I can make a difference with a smile or kind word. This is my intention today and I will turn it into action.
Monday, December 17, 2012
TAKE THE DARE
Why are my
heart and hands closed today? What
prevents me from receiving? It is
bitterness and resentment that block grace from entering my heart. As I hold on to old hurts and wounds I am
creating only more hurt and wounding.
Freedom will only come when I allow forgiveness to enter the scene. Today I choose to let go of the ways in which
I believe others have judged and harmed me.
I am unwilling to bind myself in cords of distrust, anger, and
grievance. These cords only serve to
paralyze me and hold me back from being able to appreciate and dance in this
moment. I speak to those who I have held
captive in my memories. “I forgive you and release you from your debt. You can no longer hurt me and I have no
desire to get even with you. I am not
your victim.” I choose now to open my heart to the love that surrounds me. The tightly clenched fists which I have held
up for so long can relax and finally open up to receive the love that surrounds
me. And yet I find another block . . .
Not only
have I prosecuted others, I have also accused myself. And so I choose to release myself from guilt
over the ways I have harmed and judged others.
Perhaps I have repeated behavior I was taught from other prisoners or
maybe I needed to protect myself from real or perceived dangers, regardless I
no longer need to hold others accountable for my happiness. I release myself from this self-imposed
prison. I speak to myself, “I forgive
you and release you from your guilt. You
have made amends and deserve freedom. The doors of your prison cell are unlocked
and you are free to move forward, if you dare.” I choose to dare . . .

THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR
Friendship
is delightful, surprising, frustrating, comforting, confounding, disturbing,
overwhelming, precious, priceless, and as essential to me as breathing. My friends connect me to life and support me
when I feel lost. They remind me that
I’m fallible and keep me from spinning into selfish narcissism. They love me when I make mistakes and
convince me I am somebody worth knowing.
They teach me how to receive without giving and also to give without
receiving.
There have
been moments when I have experienced the illusion of feeling alone and
friend-less. I have consoled myself with
a web of fallacies: ‘you are better off
alone; protect your heart from the risk of abandonment or rejection; it’s safer
to not care or depend on others.’ This
self-imposed ‘hell’ only serves to punish and imprison me. The cost of this imaginary protection is
much, much higher than the risk of connection with others. Certainly, more than I am willing to pay.
So, I have
learned the value of lowering my defenses and choosing to trust. Yes, there are situations when safeguards are
warranted, however I can trust myself to set appropriate boundaries when these
circumstances surface.
Today I am
safe. I can inhale the wonder of being
loved and allow it to nourish and restore me.
I can exhale fear and loneliness.
I can move forward today in gratitude for the connections I will make
with others and the moments I will learn to love and be loved.
Saturday, December 15, 2012
IT'S TIME
It’s time to live without fear. Fear of failure, fear of abandonment, fear of
rejection, fear of inadequacy, fear of dependency, fear of intimacy; so many
illusions that hold me back. At some
point, fear might have been a helpful defense but now it is an impediment that
prevents me from receiving and giving. I
choose to allow myself to live without fear and embrace the freedom of kowing
I am safe and have everything I need today.
It’s time to let go of resentment and release
ghosts of the past from their long captivity.
I no longer need to get even or feel self-righteous and justified. Clinging to these shadows does not serve me
any longer. I choose to forgive those
who have offended me and face the day without the echoes of past hurts haunting
me.
It’s time to open my mind to new possibilities
and opportunities that I have only barely dared to imagine. Limitations come from within more than from
the outer restrictions of time, money and others. I choose to believe that my dreams and hopes
are manifesting now.
It’s time to allow myself to just be. It isn’t necessary to impress others or
people please in order to be accepted or loved.
I choose to accept and love myself for who I am.

JUST BE
Negative
thoughts churn in a tempting uproar:
“This is a waste of time” “There is too much to do today for this” “You
need to get busy” “You are so lazy” “You
should be…You can’t…You aren’t…You don’t…You have to”. Each thought looks for a crack to slip
through and flare-up into shame. Be
still, breathe, recognize the pull of the energy and then let it go. Without attention there is no place for
thought to cling.
How
difficult it is to enter into stillness and silence. To stay rooted in one space, in one moment
while all around life ebbs and flows.
Remaining quiet and calm in what seems to be a swirling tornado of
activity. The body cries out for
attention. Muscles are tight and
tense. Slowly with patient, concerted
effort they begin to relax.
Breathe. Nerves begin to stir and
suddenly the need to itch is overwhelming.
Other body complaints step into the spotlight: I’m hungry, I’m tired, I’m hot, it’s noisy, and
I’m uncomfortable…” Breathe, slow down,
let go.
Just be.
Emotions
reach out to distract. Anxiety, anger,
fear, discouragement, roll in like dark storm clouds on a summer afternoon
blocking out the sun. They flood
consciousness and then move slowly away when attention is refocused. Be still.
The storm is quieted.
Just be.
Just be.

BALANCED LIVING
It is so easy to live life based only on my feelings;
however, when I do I always regret it. I
become jerked around from the depths of despair to the heights of ecstasy and everywhere
in between. My feelings inform me of
when my needs are or aren’t being met, they let me know when I need to take
action, they give me a means to communicate and connect, but they aren’t always
a reliable, consistent base to stand upon.
They can change on a dime and make my head spin. They can sometimes be based on distortions
and assumptions or be reactions to inaccurate perceptions. So,
while I value my feelings and allow them to inform me, I also recognize them as
an unreliable guide to my happiness.
Wednesday, December 12, 2012
TODAY
Today is pregnant with possibility. There is opportunity to grow, learn, and manifest my dreams; potential for being caring, responsible, assertive, creative
stepping into the experiences this day holds.
There will be chances to take risks, to connect, to set boundaries, to
show compassion as I interact with others.
As I place my foot on the path of now-ness, I choose to embrace this
moment and all that it may hold without judgment or expectation. I will breathe and remain aware and
present to the gift that is in my midst and whisper words of thanks. How fortunate we are to have today!
Tuesday, December 11, 2012
MOVING FORWARD
Entering into a space of peace and openness can be
challenging at times. When things aren’t
going the way I expect them to go or events happen that bring pain and
disappointment, it can be so hard to trust and believe in a generous and
benevolent universe. I want to remind
myself in these moments that I am in the middle of the road and not at the end
of it. Yes, it is painful and hard to
experience, yet it is also a temporary experience which does not have to define
my entire journey. I want to remember
the other times in my life when I have traveled down other painful roads to
find understanding, meaning, growth, happiness, and purpose at the end. I will not allow myself to take a detour into
self-pity and destructive avoidance behaviors, rather I will steadfastly move
forward one step at a time trusting that good will come from what feels like
defeat.
Monday, December 10, 2012
SAYING YES TO TODAY
Some days the winds of discouragement and disappointment
blow more strongly than other days. At
these times it can be difficult to stay rooted in beliefs about abundance,
purpose, and strength. It is at
precisely these moments affirmation of unconditional acceptance, love and
support is most useful. Rather than
being blown about by temporary conditions, I will remember the connections that
help ground me in an awareness of my worth and value. I will acknowledge the pain that exists and
choose to move through it rather than run away from it, reminding myself that everything
has the potential of being transformed into gift if I remain open-minded and receptive. Yes, yes, and yes.
Sunday, December 9, 2012
EMPOWERING MYSELF
Internal pressure to feel ‘less than’ surrounds me this day. I will
acknowledge these beliefs exist and then present evidence to challenge these
critical and negative voices. I am
definitely not perfect and thankfully no one else is either. I am allowed to make mistakes and frequently
they provide profound insight and learning.
My worth and value is fortunately not determined by what I do or don’t
do but rather by being who I am. Others
have shown this truth to me time and time again. I have never felt contentment or peace by allowing
myself to build a permanent residence in the role of victim. ‘Poor-me thinking’ only results in isolation
and resentment. I can move out of the
victim neighborhood anytime I choose to do so.
Saturday, December 8, 2012
THERE IS ENOUGH

I believe in a universe of unlimited providence and compassion. I choose to shelf the fears of scarcity and
grasping that threaten to drown me and re-affirm my belief in abundance and
enough-ness. I envision resources,
means, and strengths and reassure myself and others with messages of plenty and
adequacy. There is enough for all of us,
ample supply if we open our hearts to receive, share, and trust. This is the energy I want to generate today.
Friday, December 7, 2012
SEARCHING FOR UNITY
Open and still, breathing and
being; bringing my heart, mind, and body into unity. As I know oneness within I will be able to
live peace and unity in this day with others.
If I am fragmented within and at war with myself odds are good that I
will find reasons to be in conflict with you.
So I choose to take this time to seek out my own ambivalence,
resentment, dis-ease and speak words of forgiveness, soothing, and
reconciliation inside. I will make
amends with those I have offended and hold out the ‘olive branch’. I am responsible for my own actions not those
of someone else. I know that holding on
to grudges only serves to hurt me and alienates me from myself. So I take inventory of this familiar internal
territory searching for what prevents harmony within.
Today I will remain rooted
in the unity I feel within and reach out to those around me from this wellspring
of stillness, healing, and serenity. It
is a deep pool offering nourishment and peace.
Thursday, December 6, 2012
LETTING IN THE COMFORT
Today, I know that it is safe
to open my heart to receive the love and tenderness that others offer. I can let my friends know when I am upset and
need support or reassurance. I can be
soothed by their kindness and compassion relaxing in the knowledge that what I feel,
think and need matters not only to me but also to those who love me. I will trust those in my social support
system and let myself take in the care they extend to me.
Can I allow myself to
receive comfort? As a younger person I
learned to keep a ‘stiff upper lip’ and not ‘be a baby’. I discovered that the people around me weren’t
available or interested in my moments of setback and hurt. They were more focused on themselves and
their own needs, so I began to keep to myself and hold in my pain, putting a stone
wall around my heart. I told myself “I’m
self-reliant, I don’t need anyone’s sympathy” and pushed away those who tried
to extend care and support. Through the
years I came to believe that it takes a very strong person to permit others to
see their vulnerability or weakness, someone who can trust and doesn’t have to hold
on so tightly to self-control.
Wednesday, December 5, 2012
ACCEPTANCE
Today, I will listen for the
ought-to and shoulds that surface in my mind, consciously acknowledge them and
remind myself that I choose to accept who I am with all my flaws and
imperfections. I will lay to rest the
critical, judgmental inner voices and fill my mind with affirmations of my
worth and value. I will also choose to understand,
accept and love you the way you are. Acceptance
brings freedom, hope, and the peace of mind I desire. This is my intention for this day.
Judgments whirl around in my
mind at times. Judgments about what
other people do, what they say, how they look and thoughts about what they
should do or be. I can become mired in
negativity and criticism very easily which usually leads me to the familiar
road of frustration, anger and hurt. This is not the attitude or heart space I want
to occupy. I am very aware that letting
go of this way of thinking is directly connected to how able I am to accept
myself radically and unconditionally. As
I cling to expectations and judgments about my own sense of being it is
difficult to accept and see others for who they are.
Tuesday, December 4, 2012
BRUSHING OFF THE WISPS OF THE PAST
However, occasionally they
surprise me and show up with a bit more substance and menace. I will remember, during these times, the arsenal
of truth that resides securely within me.
Affirmation of my worth and value, reinforcing my right to be and reminding me that I am not alone. I am filled with resiliency, courage and compassion
anchored deeply within. The old, tired
tendrils of the past are no match for the power and strength that dwells in me
now. I move into this day ready to face it as it
unfolds.
When the echoes of the past
whisper in my head it is sometimes difficult to remain grounded in the
present. These disempowering, negative
voices used to ring through my consciousness regularly and consistently as
church steeple bells. Telling me I’m not
good enough, I’m a failure, people can’t be trusted, just give up; pulling me
powerfully into depression, anxiety, and despair.
Today, these murmurings inside are like mere wisps of air that usually blow
away easily dissolving into nothingness and barely measuring on the radar of my
awareness.
Monday, December 3, 2012
LET GO AND LET GOD

Let go and let God. I have heard this over and over and surrender
is never an easy task. There are times when
I find myself very wrapped up in the ‘role’ of being a Supreme Being who’s got
the ‘whole world in my hands’. This
quickly leads to frustration, disappointment, anxiety, anger, and exhaustion,
as well as, eventually the reality that it isn’t my job to run the universe or
anyone else’s life. Somehow I fall into
the trap of believing that I know what is best for others while disregarding
what is best for me. I want to hold on
to relationships that are ending or unhealthy for me. I continue to hold on to
beliefs and attitudes that no longer serve my purposes. I maintain old
behaviors that drag me under in the hope that maybe this time it will be
different.
Today I choose to release my
need to grasp for control and cling on to people, places, beliefs, behaviors,
and ideals that do not serve me. I open
my hands and surrender my expectations and judgments about this day. Life calls me forward with an open mind and
open heart. I will let go and let God.
Sunday, December 2, 2012
MOMENTS OF SUFFERING
Reflecting on the complicated dance of love and hatred, the
surprise and horror of having what I love ripped away from me without warning;
what is my response in these inevitable moments of suffering? Do I strike back in anger and retaliation,
inflicting pain on others and wanting retribution for my loss, blind to the
other’s pain and my own continuing contribution to the cycle of violence? I admit this response does have a seductive
appeal. Other times I struggle to understand what
possible good or meaning could come from the tragedies of my life, is there a
way to love in the midst of darkness? When
I’m honest this isn’t my first, instinctive response. Sometimes I fall on my knees doubting my
ability to muster the strength to carry on and believe in goodness,
forgiveness, and compassion.
For today I choose forgiveness and a belief that love is
more powerful than hatred. I will reach
out to someone who is suffering and whisper a word of kindness in memory of
moments of my past pain. I will remember how I feel when others have comforted and supported me during the hard times.
Saturday, December 1, 2012
REACHING GOALS
First, I will assure that they are reasonable and in line with my values and integrity. Then, I will access my desire to attain the
goal. Do the pros of reaching this goal
outweigh the cons of failure? Next, I
will break my goal into manageable steps.
I will examine what I am able and ready to do and then hold myself
responsible for taking some action today towards my goal. I will acknowledge the progress I make no
matter how small and affirm myself for moving forward. I will encouraged myself with reminders of past
successes and remember the strength I possess.
I will comfort and reassure myself during the difficult moments today
and recognize that setbacks are only temporary and to be expected. I will get the support I need to cheer me on
and back me up. I know the destination isn’t
as important as the journey and I choose to value today's journey.
So many goals I set for
myself end up abandoned half way through the course. Many things can get in the way of reaching
the finish line: laziness, boredom, time
management, not believing in me, discouragement when I hit the ‘wall’,
temptation, disappointment when it doesn’t go the way I want it to, giving up
on myself or others, setting unrealistic goals, poor planning, fear of success,
and the list goes on and on… I choose to
reevaluate my goals today.
