MamaBlogger365 - Limits of Dreams and Gumption by *Dr Mama* Amber Kinser

I remember sitting in the rocking chair on the front porch of my mother’s mountain home with my infant baby, my second child, in my arms. I had just received a job offer in Tennessee, less than three hours drive from her. We were delighted when we got the news but this day we were there because my partner and I had travelled from Indiana with our infant son and 6 year-old daughter to find a place for our family to live and a job for my partner. Ours was a colicky baby and stress levels were high all around.

I was crying and rocking, myself and the baby, and my mother told me hesitantly that she wished I could get OK about where I was at this juncture because “it gets harder,” she said. It’s a statement that probably reads harshly; it feels a little that way as I type it, but don’t remember being put off by it then. And I certainly now understand the motivation to say it.

MamaBlogger365 - Learning to Live: Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life by Elle Gallo

We attract what we ARE, not what we want. We ARE what we THINK.

Change your thoughts, change your life.

What we ARE is a culmination of the energy produced by our thoughts, the words that reflect those thoughts and actions we take. What we ARE is what we tell ourselves; what we think of ourselves, and what we tell others about us. And if we attract what we ARE and not what we want, we should pay close attention to our thoughts and words!

MamaBlogger365 - Lead with Values by Julie Donley, RN ~ Success Expert & Author of Does Change have to be so H.A.R.D.?

What is important to you in life? Do you know what your values are?

Values are those things that are priorities. These can be anything from nature and beauty, adventure, learning, having fun, or honor and integrity. You know these things because when you see them in others, they bring you joy. When you experience them for yourself, they bring you joy. And when you don’t have enough of them in your life, you feel empty, like life has lost meaning.

Too often, however, we live life without our values leading the way.

MamaBlogger365 - How Happy Are You Really? by Julie Donley, RN

During my assessment reviews with coaching clients, I always ask the question about happiness – are you happy?

Sometimes, people say yes and sometimes no. Many people think they are happy when in fact, they are not. This can often come as a revelation and it’s important because we cannot change what we are unaware of.

What’s amazing, however, is that far too many people are UNHAPPY.

One place on the assessment in particular demonstrates a person’s level of happiness. So let me ask you this key question, before I explain...
