Impossible is a word ....

Impossible is a word only to be found in the dictionary of fools. ~Napoleon

You are no fool!!!

So let's look at this another way..

it's always a good idea to get another prospective. 

I  M POSSIBLE

No power in society, no hardship in your condition can depress you, keep you down...

No power in society, no hardship in your condition can depress you, 
keep you down, in knowledge, power, virtue, influence, but by your own consent.  

~William Ellery Channing, 1838



Life throws some pretty bad stuff at us, it's not easy for anyone. It's out of your control. 

You do have a choice everyday...sometimes that choice involves any of the following empowering steps:

• Ask for help
• Accept assistance from others
• Get informed
• Take a step to distance yourself from people, places or situations that are not to your benefit.
• Recognize and accept past error(s) as valuable lessons for the future, not a failure dictating who you are and will be. 
• This may be cliche to many but--it makes a difference in reality--Be a positive influence on yourself..say something positive everyday, build yourself up.  Your mind believes what you tell it..and your body reacts to that message.   

Your problem is you're... too busy holding onto your unworthiness. ~Ram Dass

Your problem is you're... too busy holding onto your unworthiness.  ~Ram Dass


Let it Go!!  Give it UP!!!  Stop beating yourself up about the past, or the lies you have been told…. 

You are worthy.   Say it…"I am worthy.."

You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them. ~Michael Jordan

You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.  ~Michael Jordan

Are you giving yourself a break today…I don't mean taking it easy or not working…I mean are you giving yourself enough credit for all that you do everyday..in a positive way?  Are you building yourself UP, by appreciating the things you do well or have attempted to do.  The risks you have taken, taking that first step…because if you have…then you are building the confidence in yourself to expect more…visualize whatever it is you want to do, have or be….. expect it from yourself….

Let's turn that around......
Take a moment to think about the things you enjoy,  the things that make you laugh, the things that make you smile.... just smile.  Thank about any time, any where, from your past or what you plan for the future.  Say something about what you are thinking --out loud or to yourself.....

You have done more to improve your health then you realize, just by thinking in a positive way.   According to an article on the Mayo Clinic Website:  Through engaging in positive thinking and most importantly positive self talk you have:

• Increased life span

• Lower rates of depression

• Lower levels of distress

• Greater resistance to the common cold

• Better psychological and physical well-being

• Reduced risk of death from cardiovascular disease

• Better coping skills during hardships and times of stress

Spend your time thinking about the positive,  believe it or not whatever your story, history or past, you have it better then someone else out there in this world.   Do yourself a favor:
Appreciate every day
Find one positive idea, thought or event to think about it every day
OH and smile more.

"Whenever I feel like exercise, I lie down until the feeling passes".  ~Robert M. Hutchins


20 - 30 minutes a day may seem like a lot of time to set aside for an activity that may not be your favorite thing to do, but what if I told you that just by spending a few minutes out of the day active you will:

• add years to your life
• think more clearly and learn more easily
• sleep better
• get stronger physically
• increase the level of endorphins and feel good chemicals in your body
• increase brain elasticity.  
• help you deal with stress in a positive way

More money isn't going to do that for you

Having More clothes, cars, things isn't going to do that for you

Watching more TV or sitting in front of a computer is not going to do that for you.   

Invest in yourself.  Step away from this computer and take a walk...
