I decided to learn how to meditate and do it for at LEAST 15 minutes every day. Little did I know how hard it actually is to do!!

Studies have shown that meditation has many positive effects on how we live our lives, treat people, deal with problems, and care about our health. It's worth the time to learn how to meditate and do it on the daily.

I know I'm just learning but the first time I did it I had moments of pure "nothing" on my brain and it was an amazing feeling to be completely thoughtless!

How To Meditate

We are human. We get stressed. Shit happens.
The hardest part of the battle is figuring out how to handle it all, because as we all know, it wont go away. Stress is just a part of life.

I can say that at this point in time, I am currently stressed with multiple situations in my life. But I have to make the choice to not lose sleep over it, and to deal with it day by day. Most things we stress about cannot be fixed in one day. The easiest way to deal is to create a plan, stick to it, and not dwell on the situation.

And if you think about it, stress is a reminder that our life has value and importance. So, remember that when you you get stressed. It's a blessing in a way. That uncomfortable reminder that the choices we make are important so we should handle them carefully.

Endulge in stress. Make the best of it.
And just like DESSERTS, the more you share, the less you get of it.

Be a leader, not a follower. And if you must follow, be strong and hold on.

January 22nd

Sometimes you really should do NOTHING. Treat yourself to a day in bed watching movies and eating snacks. Your body and mind deserves it every now and then.

January 21st

Don't let pride get in the way. If you need help, with anything, ask. Do not think you can handle it alone, because we all need others to support us.

Tonight is date night and we are going to see Humor Abuse at the A.C.T. Theater in San Francisco!

If you haven't gone to a play or a concert for a while, I suggest going! It an all-around better experience than flipping through tv channels or going to a smelly movie theater. Plus it makes a great date night!

Suuport the arts and all that are involved. They do it all for you, anyways!

If you have wronged somebody that is a close friend, fix it. Apologize and make things right. Its not worth losing a friend.

January 15th

You'll never find the right person, if you don't let go of the wrong person.

Letting go is never easy. It's something we must learn; through time, and patience, and perserverance. In any kind of relationship, we build our character through experiences.

If you think about the reasons you are holding on, ask yourself... is it worth it? Will this matter in a year? Is this affecting me negatively? Is this affecting the other person negatively? Ask yourself questions that need to be answered.

I've met many people in my life; good and bad. I've let go of a lot, and held onto more. However, I feel like I hold on to memories more than people. It has made me who I am, so therefore I choose to hold on to the experience and move forward in a positive light. I miss some people, but for the most part, letting go was the BEST decision, although the hardest.

As this new year is coming into play, look at your relationships of all kinds and decide if you should let go or hold on. Surround yourself with positive people that will add uplifting memories to your timeline.

And always remmember...
When you let go of something, it creates room for something brand new.

We live. We learn. We create ourselves and our experiences. We are surrounded by people who teach us by every action we see. It is our decision to make something for ourselves. To make something of our names. To change the word, one action at a time.

IT IS OUR DECISION TO INSPIRE AND BE INSPIRED.
Stand up. Do something. Say something. Work hard. Accomplish something.

Decide TODAY to move forward and change someboy's life through inspiration.

January 12th

Don't worry, be happy.

January 11th

It's a brand new year. A brand new outlook on life. If something isn't right, change the way you deal with it and maybe, just maybe, it will be right.

Make every day count so when January 1st, 2013 comes around you can say - "Wow, 2012 was the best year ever!"

TODAY, I QUIT SMOKING!!!

It all starts today. I have wanted to do this for a while; I've just been procrastinating. I have 2 main reasons I'm doing this.

First, during Christmas I went home to visit my family and my uncle told us he has Emphysema. He smoked for years, and it finally caught up with him. My uncle is my favorite relative, and has always been a wonderful support to me and my family. So, Uncle Gary... this is for YOU!

Second, I am running a marathon in July and I want to have my lungs fully ready for the race. I haven't been in a race for over 3 years, so I really want to get in great shape!

So...... IT ALL STARTS TODAY!!!
Wish me luck (and don't offer me a smoke or a drag)!! Ha!

January 7th

I plan on reading 12 new books this year. One a month. Books = knowledge. Knowledge = power. Read on!
