***Do You Have Courage?

Traditionally, people have used the word “courage” when referring to war heroes, police officers, fire fighters and others who put their lives on the line. It is true. They have tremendous courage. Do they feel fear? Yes, and they act anyway. Perhaps our daily activities aren’t life threatening, yet we must understand, that it takes courage to live. Ordinary people like you and me need courage to get through our daily lives. There are so many things that cause us to feel fea

**Do You Love Yourself?

To love and be loved is one of humanities deepest desires. Too often it remains an unsatisfied hunger, burning inside. Feeling unloved over a long period of time can cause us to feel unlovable. We retreat into ourselves, locking away our feelings and desires because we feel we are not good enough, pretty enough or smart enough to be loved by the people around us. Depression, frustration and anger often result. We push people away because it is easier than feeling the disappoi

***Is Life a Matter of Luck?

Are you lucky? Do good things just come your way? Do you always seem to be in the right place at the right time? Are you the person who gets the promotion, the great deal or the perfect mate? If not, you might want to consider making some changes in your habits. Richard Wiseman, head of the University of Hertfordshire’s (England) psychology research department, together with his colleagues at the Perrott-Warrick Research Unit have actually studied what makes some people lucky

***Professionalism

Becoming a professional isn’t just a matter of learning all of the technical aspects of your job. You determine whether you are a professional or not by how you look, talk, write, act and work. Many businesses have come to accept less than professional performance from their team members. Casual dress and casual attitudes have led to casual performance. So what is a professional? A professional is someone who communicates and interacts effectively with everyone. Self motivat

**Who Told Us Life Would Be Easy?

When I was a teenager, I couldn’t wait to get older and get out of school. Somehow, I believed that once I was “grown up,” life would be easy and fun. I’d be able to do what I wanted, when I wanted and go where I wanted. Guess what I found out? Life is definitely not easy. About now, you are probably thinking, “Well Judi, how long did it take you to find that out?” The answer: Not long! There’s no question that some have it easier than others, but all of us, at some point, wi

**Choose Your Future

If you had all the money you would need, all the time it would take, and you knew you absolutely couldn’t fail, what would you do? Who would you do it with? Where would you go? What would you have? What would you want to be? In other words, what goals would you set for yourself, if you knew you couldn’t fail? Deciding all these things is what I call vision-setting. If the world was perfect and money was no object, this is the picture you hold in your mind of who and what you

Don’t think for a moment that you aren’t creative! You are creating your life right now, one day at a time. You have created our life as it is. Maybe not intentionally! But you have created it through the choices that you have made up until now. So, why not create the life you want? Everything you need to make your life what you want it to be already exists.

Life is not easy. It’s downright hard. There are lots of troubles, irritations, and pain in life. Things happen! Things go wrong! People don’t always do what we want them to. Don’t depend on other people for your happiness. Depend on yourself. Be who you are. Do the things you want to do. Get the things you want to have.

**Quit Making Potholes into Canyons

The minister at my church once told me “Worry is a form of prayer and the form most people practice often.” I’m sure he didn’t mean to be negative, but he wanted me to realize what people focus on is what they bring about. Worry is fear. Worry is a state of mind which is often brought on my indecision. Everything in life begins with an idea. What worry does is take that idea, apply our imagination to it, and make it into something far bigger than what it really is. In other w

**When Will You Be Happy?

You have a right and even a responsibility to be happy. Happiness is a state of mind. Many people let life pass them by because they choose to be unhappy. (Bet you are thinking, “Judi, people don’t choose to be unhappy. It just happens.) Wrong! People who sit around complaining, whining, worrying, procrastinating, and gossiping about other people instead of making the best of every day, are actually choosing to be miserable. They talk about the past and how it was “back when.

**Are You Going to Give Up?

Giving up — even once — makes it easier and more acceptable to “just give up” again. When you give up, you damage your self-respect. You heart doesn’t listen to the excuses for quitting which are created by your mind. Your heart knows that when you quit — when you give up — a little piece of your self-esteem dies each time until eventually, there is nothing left. When you want something and go after it, even if you don’t get it, you will at least know you made the effort and

What went right that could have gone wrong? What other possibilities are there? Then, do something differently. Be deliberate and take reasonable risks.
