The Answer Key

Nothing feels better than being happily unbothered. Happiness is always an option with grace and gratitude. Peace is a spiritual and physiological adaptation; stay dedicated to it. Purpose is fulfillment repeated in action with clear intention. Freedom is experiencing them all at the same time. What makes it all possible is maintaining your focus on you: your health, your energy, your education, your purpose, and your experiences. Make the necessary adjustments for your freedom even if that means going without some things or some people.  Be so focused on living your best life you do not have time to be bothered- be happy.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Pray first. Then, count your blessings because gratitude and anxiety cannot share the same space. Now, prepare to shake things up. Take a trip. Take a drive. Take a walk or simply step outside. Close your eyes, and take a deep breath. Breathe in through your nose, out through your mouth so you can smell and taste the air. Focus on the beating of your own heart. That sweet rhythm... let it be a calm and steady reminder that your presence is important and your Being is enough. Then, intentionally create more joy every chance you get.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Know when it is time to cut ties with the the ignorant, the indecent, classless, dramatic, disrespectful, and the delusional- let them go. Let them be and fester amongst themselves. Refuse to give them the audience they crave. Know when you are above the fray, and act accordingly. Remain elevated. Remember that you are pragmatic, motivated, sophisticated, and celebrated among those that truly know you. Be dutifully at work on your greatness and betterment- be better and move on. ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Continue to express your gratitude for all that you have, will gain, and even your losses that blessed your life by leaving. Have faith that all of it happens with good reason. As you go forward keep that in mind.  Know that you can handle trials and triumph just the same, with grace, dignity, resilience, gratitude, and a humble heart.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!  

They will always think what they want, and there is nothing you can do about it. Now, you be the judge. Judge for yourself. Look yourself in the mirror and answer to you. Everyone else's take is just their opinion. The ideas they have formed about who they think you are have nothing to do with you, who you are, or who you are becoming. Even for the people that matter, whose opinions you hope are positive and at the very least, pragmatic- they only know some of your depth. Even they can not attest to your every challenge, consideration, conquest, desire or fear. Speak for yourself and speak up. Make sure you get your attention, and get to the business of being someone you would speak highly of.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Your resilience has proven that happiness is always an option. You have survived challenges, disappointments, and heartbreak, and found happiness again and again. Usually, it can be as close as you choose for it to be, but some days it will take effort. It might need some convincing with a scented candle, a long bath, a good book, or lingering embrace to show itself, but it will show up and find you... again.  ~ For more positive posts stop by   fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!  

It can be challenging to chase your dream especially the one that seems far fetched, but distant or difficult does not make it impossible. The fact that it is a challenge, there are obstacles, and it takes time is part of what confirms the calling. Stay willing to work for it. Stay committed and consistent. Even the smallest effort draws you closer. Keep going.   ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me   @_TheAnswerKey  daily!  

While you are busying yourself checking off every accomplishment you set out to achieve this year and every goal you have faced and conquered; make time to be present. Live in the moment. Stillness has many values, but one underestimated asset is the appreciation of your experience in the present tense. Time truly does fly, and when one fails to acknowledge the experience they have in real time the memory is limited, deficient, or incomplete. Make time to appreciate your full experience while you are living it, and live your best life being with the people you love.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Plans may change, but the goal does not have to. Believe in your goals and your ability to accomplish them. Progress does not always go in a straight line. There will be twists and turns on the way. The arduous journey is designed to test and challenge you, but it is also meant to edify and enlighten you too. Embrace it all. Lean into the curves, and try to enjoy the ride.  ~ For more positive posts stop by   fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

By this point, you can only hope to realize that the most important investment you can make is in yourself. Believe in yourself with all your heart. The gifts you possess are not accidental, random, or arbitrary. You are meant to do great things, and you will as long as you keep believing in yourself.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me   @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Nothing feels better than peace. Make time for yourself to just be. Be with you. Be present. Be in the moment, and feel your way around. Breathe in peace, and exhale gratitude. While the world can be unpredictable, stressful, and chaotic from time to time, nothing beats peace so when you have it... just be.  ~For more positive posts stop by  www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey     &  fb.me/TheAnswerKey   daily!  

In the hustle, bustle, and from time to time chaos that can happen while thriving or surviving life, it is easy to miss out on the come up, the upgrades, the growth, and accumulation of accomplishments. Remember to pause. Take a beat to relish in all that has come to pass and came to be. Despite whatever has stood in your way, you managed to get over, around, or through it all before. Count your blessings. Be grateful for it all; bask in your bounty, and soak up your success. Take this moment, and enjoy it. You deserve it all.  ~For more positive posts stop by  www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey   &  fb.me/TheAnswerKey   daily!

This season can usher in copious amounts of change or the desire for it. With all of its bright colors and whimsy, the outlook on your current status in life can be a heavy burden if you feel like the leaves are not dancing for you. On the other hand, these changes can make you feel buoyant, hopeful and optimistic about the possibilities that lie ahead. Choose to live in the latter. Even if your season is not loaded with accolades and accomplishments just yet, you can prepare for them. You can utilize this time for planning, building, and learning so that you are fully equipped to enter your winning season, and when it comes, you will be ready to make the most of it.  ~For more positive posts stop by  www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey   &  fb.me/TheAnswerKey   daily!

There is always something to work on, but making time to work on yourself is just as important as anything external. Remember to put you on your priority list. Invest in your Self. Offer yourself the gift of your time, love, and attention. Rest and selfcare is just as important to your productivity as your active, physical efforts. Often times, your work will also require endurance so taking the best care of yourself will make a difference, and may be the difference maker. May this month usher in more peace, love, and more selfcare.  ~For more positive posts stop by  www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey   &   fb.me/TheAnswerKey   daily!

Fear is your greatest adversary. Do not allow it to diminish what you have to offer. Show up everyday with determination in your heart and fire in your eyes. When it comes to your dreams, the first person that needs convincing is you. There may be plenty of reasons not to, but to get it done, you only need one. The constant tapping on your shoulder, wind on your back, stroke of inspiration and power of determination when you have every reason to be doing something else. That passion is reason enough. This mission is yours, but only if you accept it. Be honest with yourself. Know your fears, but be brave enough to face them head on. ~For more positive posts stop by  www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey   &   fb.me/TheAnswerKey   daily!

Every single day holds the potential to be great. Even if you are not cruising down the highway with no traffic in a luxury car, your favorite song on the radio, and the wind in your hair; your day can still be amazing. You could be laughing with a friend, making a kind gesture to a stranger, spending quality time with your family, or simply sharing an embrace with someone you love or someone you just met. Moments are plentiful; it is what you make of them, and who you share them with that make them special. Everyday, enjoy your life on purpose.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

It is easy to focus on what is coming next, and what to do about it. However, for this moment, you can choose to pause. Take a beat, and focus on this moment. This is a chance to take in this moment as it is, a moment all by itself- nothing more, nothing less. Sit in it with no requirements or demands. Rest here. Be here. Let the breaths, calm, and peace add up for a few. Do not spend this moment thinking of the past or the future. Pause. Just be. Be present, and be grateful for this very moment you are in. That is all.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!
