Don’t Forget How Far You’ve Come
Keep Going
Ten years ago, I was grieving the loss of my first miscarriage. It was scary, sad, and confusing. Ten years before that, I was fighting for my life. Not due to drugs or alcohol, but from heavily toxic environments. I didn’t fully understand why they were wrong. I don’t think many people did back then, but I knew something wasn’t right.
Now today, I know my value. I know how to set…
Triggered?
We all have our own unique triggers. I found an article all about triggers that seems pretty informative. This article talks about two different triggers, internal and external. I want you to be inspired to read the article, so here’s a bit of what it said about external triggers:

So to continue today’s theme, I’m sharing an article written by Heather Cherry from Forbes.com titled “The benefits of…
Resources for Writers
Poets and Writers Magazine is one of my favorite magazines. I was always excited to receive this magazine in the mail. It’s nice to get things in the mail but what’s pretty cool is that they have free online resources too.
Here’s a link to their website. Check it out.
On their homepage they have a menu headings with things like Publish Your Writing, Promote your writing, and even Programs and…
Keys to Personal Excellence
The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.
Confucius
Do you need these things to reach personal excellence? I personally think self acceptance, discipline, and courage are keys. I’m sure we could come up with more.
What do you think are the keys to Personal Excellence?
