Dream to Rise

According to Hale Dwoskin, "Emotions are just emotions.  They are not you, they are not facts, and you can let them go." Did you know you create a lot of unnecessary pain in your life?  Each time you lock on to a thought, or hold onto an emotion, you suffer.  A great example of this is how you react to physical pain.  When you do so, you generate negative thoughts, and these th...

Are you who you want to be? Or are you who everyone else wants you to be? There comes a time when you must decide, and that step requires more than just bravery or self-confidence. Many of us don’t like who we are. We feel weak or indecisive or lonely, and we’re unhappy with our lives. But it doesn’t have to be this way! You have the power to change who you are and how others see you. You don’t ha...

Can autism stop your dream?   I’ve read someone mentioned that she has to live in her own little world - daydream all the time. For a long time, it was a huge problem, because living in her imagination would often cause her not to pay attention in class. At its worst, she gets so lost in what’s imaginary, that she’d ignore reality almost entirely. But do you think they are able to manifest wh...

There are so many lessons I wish I had learned while I was young enough to appreciate and apply them. The thing with wisdom, and often with life lessons in general, is that they’ve learned in recollection, long after we needed them. The good news is that other people can benefit from our experiences and the lessons we’ve learned. Life is a learning process. You can learn important life lessons by...

Have you heard the phrase “faith that moves mountains”? This beloved phrase comes from Matthew 17:20: “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. Faith removes them from our way, it makes them plain and they become as nothing before us. For nothing can stand in the wa...

Kids are hardwired to be negative. We all are. Back in our early evolution, there was so much detail and information in our environment that we focused on the negatives…the threats.   However, we can start at an early age to teach our children to manifest their dreams but eliminating those negative thoughts.  How can we do that? Listen to Alli Arms Arney, a career coach and the founder o...

How does manifestation work?  Others would say that when you think about something, it can come true.  Others believe that if you're a good person, good things will happen to you.  Are they true?  While both of these are components of manifesting your dreams, they are missing a key element. Your beliefs play an influential role in manifestation. Your beliefs, that is what you v...

Belief systems affect every area of your life. Beliefs affect most of your emotions, thoughts you think, productivity, relation...

If you look physically healthy, you may not have any awareness of the painful discrimination in all areas of life that people with disabilities live with on a daily basis.   Difficulty walking takes so much time and energy for you to move from one point to another.  You feel very inconvenient and disempowering.  People with intellectual disabilities also suffer similar types of disc...

When we mention about gifts, it reminds us of something we receive during our birthdays and Christmas season, which can come in many sizes and shapes.

"We all know people who garner a great sense of meaning even in the most unpleasant circumstances. …Their pain is real; their sense of doing something truly meaningful is substantial. They demonstrate how our ingrained desire to believe that our lives have purpose beyond our life span drives us to work extra hard, even to the point of personal suffering, in order to gain more meaning. —Dan Ariely...

Have you been rejected in life? Facing rejection can be hard. It can make you sad, hurt, or angry. Rejection actually really hurts. There’s no way around it.

We all experience rejection in our life and at that time we feel alone, ashamed and unwanted. We ofte...

Love - it is the one thing we can all agree on.  Everyone wants to be loved.  But the question is, "Do you love yourself?  Are you worthy of love?" Most of you know that I am all about love.

We were trained, to think, plan, commit, work hard, asses...

You are who you are today because...

Seeking self-worth through the approval of others is not the best way to go through life.  It is exhausting! So why do we do it?  Why do we allow others to dictate us and have so much power over how we feel about ourselves?
