SILENCE AND DISTANCE

The world is such an interesting place with so many countries, cultures and languages.  I always envied people who are multilingual but there is a language spoken by all no matter where they are from.  That language is silence.  Yes.  Silence is indeed a language.

Today's quote is, "Silence and distance are a language all their own."  Communication does not begin and end with the spoken word.  We have the ability to express every emotion with the blink of an eye, an upturned lip or a nod of the head.  We also have the ability to get our point across with complete silence.  No words, no expressions, just nothing.

I say silence and distance but I feel they are synonymous.  When you choose to be silent, you have chosen distance.  You have chosen to remove yourself from altercation, confrontation and conversation.  You have chosen to speak loudly with your silence.

Have a beautiful day everyone~love, Amy

WRAPPED IN A FACADE

 Good morning everyone~

Are you a good judge of character?  I like to think I am but there are always those who are masters of disguise, able to fool us really well.  There are people who are the complete opposite of what they present and only when we are fully enmeshed are we able to see them for what they really are.

Today's quote is, "The biggest mistake you can make is to fall for a façade."  Be kind to yourself!  It's not your fault (or mine).  We have more in common than not.  We all want to be liked, loved, valued and respected but if we don't like, love, value or respect ourselves we play the game of pretend.  We pretend to be everything we aren't so that we are loved and valued.

Playing pretend is great if you're an actor on a stage but not if the stage is real life.  When that façade begins to crumble and fall apart, as it inevitably will, so will that friendship or partnership because maintaining that false identity becomes a job. 

You can never go wrong being your authentic self.  The ones who are meant to be in your life will. Don't fall for a fraud and don't be one either.  Love yourself and others will follow!

Have a great day everyone!

Love, Amy~

DON'T RESIST~

Good morning everyone!  When we want something, I mean when we really want something we work at it.  We do what we have been told which is to work hard to see results.  I'm here to turn this idea on its head and to tell you to forget what you've been told.

I've spoken of Divine Timing more times than I can count and I can tell you that no matter how hard you work, no matter what you do, things will not happen JUST because you work hard and fast.  This is not to say to not contribute to your goals but hard work will not always get you there.  Sometimes you need to take a step back.

Today's quote is, "Flow with ease - release resistance- you will land where you are meant to."  Crazy right?  How do we flow with ease when what we want consumes us and is all we think about?  I'll give you this.  It's not easy but it can be done and must be done.

I want you to take a moment and think back on your life.  What was it that you worked so hard for and what was it that fell in your lap.  You probably don't know this, but just thinking and visualizing your dreams is also work. 

To see results, we must do the work but to your repertoire add visualization, imagination and releasing resistance and I promise you, you will always land exactly where you are meant to be. 

Have a wonderful day everyone, Love, Amy~

PUTTING IN THE TIME

Good morning, everyone.  Put in the work and you will reap the rewards.  Hard work gets you where you want to be.  Don't give up, keep going.  Heard this before?  Annoying isn't it.  We all know what we need to do to get where we want to be.  With effort, we can accomplish anything but you know what, sometimes we just can't get going.

Today's quote is, "Effort takes effort."  I'm the one who comes up with these quotes yet there are times I sit and stare at the computer wondering just how to start. 

It takes strength and inspiration to get motivated.  Wouldn't it be wonderful to jump out of bed every day knowing that today's the day it all gets done.  If that is a rarity in your life know that you are not alone.

Effort takes effort.  Be kind to yourself.  If you feel like what you really need is a walk in the woods then take that walk in the woods.  That might just be the motivation you need!

Have a wonderful day everyone! Love, Amy

NO COMPETITION

Good morning, everyone.  Happy Monday.  I am probably the least competitive person out there.  It's just not my thing and never was.  When on the rare occasions I watch a sporting event, I always feel bad for the loser but in sports there is only one winner despite the fact that every kid gets a trophy.  That's another topic altogether!

There are those who thrive on competition and comparison.  There is and never has been equality at the starting gate, so the two c's above are meaningless.

Today's quote is, "I cannot compete with anyone else let alone myself."  If you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, went to all the "right" schools, knew all the "right" people, you started off very differently than the one with the single parent working two jobs to make ends meet.  

Give yourself credit for where you are now.  You are more knowledgeable, more seasoned and more savvy.  There is no comparison to who you were vs. who you are so why compete with an old version of yourself. 

Stay on track but leave the racing to the horses!

Have a wonderful Thursday everyone, ~Love, Amy

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

Good morning, everyone~ When talking about a particular topic one should be well versed in the subject matter.  One should also be willing to learn from others because there is always more to know.  The reason I don't care for the term expert is because it implies that the expert knows absolutely everything regarding said topic and learning simply ceases to continue.   

Learning is fun.  It challenges us and teaches us that there is always more.  The danger of being an expert is that it puts one in a category above the rest.  Today's quote is, "Possessing knowledge makes you knowledgeable - not superior."  The know it all.  They're exhausting.  They don't converse.  They lecture and are more than happy to do so.  

Whatever you have learned about any topic, know that there is always more.  Knowledge really is power and the more you know, the more powerful and knowledgeable you will be.

Have a wonderful day everyone!~ Love, Amy

SPEAKING WITHOUT WORDS

Good morning, everyone.  I was very lucky to be introduced to international travel at a very young age for which I am grateful.  Traveling is a wonderful way to see the world.  It is a wonderful way to experience different foods and to see different sights.  There is nothing to deter me from traveling to places I have never been.  Not even the fact that English is the only language I know.

Today's quote is, "Words aren't the only way a language is spoken."  Language can be spoken in multiple ways.  We've all heard of body language.  That's the same everywhere.  Our eyes tell a story, and our expressions speak volumes.  

Never let the fact that you are not multilingual stop you from going to exotic places.  A smile is the same in any and every language!

Have a wonderful day everyone! ~Love, Amy
