Are you sucked up into the wild and crazy days of December, when everything everywhere seems out of control?
Scanning through the piles of messages in my inbox in the wee hours this morning, I collected a few quotes that might provide some solace during the hustle and bustle of the season:
1) “You never will be the person you can be if pressure, tension and discipline are taken out of your life.” – James G. Bilkey

2) “Make the best of it. When you make the best of whatever you’re focused upon, your future will be better than your now. If each moment you’re making the best of what-is, no matter what it is, you make the best of it; make the best of it; make the best of it—your future just gets better and better and better, and better.“ — Abraham
3) Make a to-do list. Takes a minute; saves you far more than that. Creating a clear game plan for what you want to (realistically) accomplish helps you attack your day, so you don’t get bogged down in unimportant details that eat up your time.
4) “It’s got nothing to do with being a perfect, goody-goody, selfless, sacrificing, spiritual saint, Rosie. Blah! That whole characterization was meant for a different audience at a different time, and they really had issues.
It’s got everything to do with being yourself, trusting the magic, following your heart, dreaming big, and having fun.
Hosanna in the highest,
The Universe”
5) Higher Awareness: “When we are struggling with any challenge, whether it be ill health, a lack of money, a lost job, relationships, an accident, whatever — we need to look for the spiritual learning. We can ask ourselves, ‘What quality does my soul want me to live more fully?’”
These next two might make us swallow hard on the plethora of holiday cookies and candies…. |

6) The average American is now 10 pounds overweight, which translates into $250 billion in added yearly health care costs, not to mention a shorter lifespan.
7) “You can take no credit for beauty at sixteen. But if you are beautiful at sixty, it will be your own soul’s doing.” — Marie Stopes
“The difference between try and triumph is a little umph.” — Unknown Author
9) “Perhaps the very best question that you can memorize and repeat, over and over, is, ‘what is the most valuable use of my time right now?’” — Brian Tracy
How about we trust the magic and have a terrific Tuesday? : )
