How to Set and Achieve Goals

The other day I was talking to a dear friend of mine who is a developer and I told him that I had decided to challenge myself to write 80 articles of at least 500 words each in the time frame of 30 days. If there are more words, that’s okay, but the articles should be at least 500 words. I signed up for Victoria Cook’s 30 day business challenge and I’m loving it! Then he proceeded to ask me: “Okay so where is your blog post that says that you are doing a 30 day challenge?” And I was like hmmmmm… he DOES have a point- LOL!

How to Overcome Anger

Anger takes up a lot of emotional space. It stops us from experiencing peace, happiness and love. It’s amazing how we think that we’re ‘getting back’ at someone else or defending ourselves in some way when we hold onto anger. In reality we’re actually the ones getting hurt.
The really bad aspect of anger is that it spills over on to our other relationships. If anger remains in our hearts it can quickly turn into bitterness and eat away at our lives for years. Finding ways to let go of anger will allow you to experience more joy and create a better environment for your life.

Choose love not fear in 2012

Fear can stop you from feeling joy. Are you experiencing joy in your daily life?
When you wake up do you say to yourself: Oh yay – what a great day I have ahead of me!
Or do get up you dragging your feet and wondering why each day seems to be a boring repetition of the previous day?
I’ve been studying ways to elevate joy in my life… Some people call this raising your happiness level. I always tell everyone that happiness is a decision. I decided a while ago that I wanted to be happy every single day of my life. I want to wake up and feel joy not just when I achieve the goals that I have set for myself, but also during the journey of reaching them. I want to always be joyful. I truly believe that this is possible.
