Do you believe in Magic?

“We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all of the power we need inside ourselves already.” 
― J.K. Rowling

As a child we innocently believed in magic.  Think back and reflect on a moment in your childhood where you felt a little magic. Perhaps it was the excitement of anticipating the Tooth Fairy or the thrill of waking up to the first snowfall! 

As adults we overlook those magical moments as we rush through our day.  But what are we rushing to?  Most likely more of the same, and we've missed numerous opportunities to bask in the glow of our own magical day.

Take a moment this morning to slow down and observe the magical moments around you.  Tell us when you catch your magical moment this week in the comments below.

What are you thinking about?

Monday, June 25, 2018 Your thoughts control your destiny! "Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become  your destiny." - Mahatma Gandhi We tend to put a much higher premium on action than we do thought.  Though we've all heard the old adage, " it's the thought that counts ." Everyone knows that just thinking about something isn't the same as doing it.  Even people who get paid to think have to communicate those thoughts so that someone can act upon them.   However, your thoughts have more influence on your life than you might think. Yes, without action your thoughts may not be worth much, but in reality, it doesn't take much for your thoughts t

is fall in love with your work. Monday, June 4, 2018 Let’s Hear It For Monday! Thank goodness it’s Monday!  Yes, you read that right.  Many an innocent school child has said, “ Mondays are terrible, why do they have to be at the beginning of the week ”?  Unfortunately, children are not alone in this belief.  However, as children they don’t understand the concept of having control over how we view our circumstances.  It’s up to us to change the script and see the first day of the workweek in a new light. Here’s a new habit that will get you excited about Mondays and looking forward to the rest of the week: Treat yourself to one new personal risk. When writing out your list of goals for the week, make a point to set one aggressive personal goal such as; experimenting with a new recipe, reading a book or mastering a new exercise technique.  The point of this exercise is to provide you motivation during the week to pursue an interest that you enjoy.
