The Answer Key

 When you are a person who can always be called on to  answer "the call"- the big and small; there will come a time in your life to pause, take notice, make changes, and shift. It is perfectly commendable and honorable to show up for others; however, you must become aware of when you are being useful and when you are being used. Be mindful of your own situation without ignoring your connections to others. This season, be cognizant of how much of your time you are giving away, and get fastidious about who you show up for when you opt to show up for them over yourself. Help others and be available, but do not forget to consider yourself in the process. Your time is a large portion of your wealth. Spend it wisely. ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

  You should be on your priority list. Be conscious of who you allow to take up your time and energy.  Take a longer shower, oil your skin thoroughly... inch by inch; drink your water, and find some time to laugh and dance. H ow you spend your time is how you spend your life... be choosy, and make every effort to e njoy your-SELF! ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

 The part you play and how you play it is crucial to your pending success. Make moves that put the odds in your favor, and ask yourself what that would look and feel like. Then ask yourself how you are going to make it happen, and get to it. Embrace the fact that life is happening for you. It does not matter what you do as a 9 to 5 but it matters more whether or not you love it or want more, different, or your own. Make what happens after 5 count for your future self's happiness. Who is the boss? You are.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

All of the ways that life is granting you the very experience you once longed for, dreamed about, and hoped would eventually come to pass and now have, can lose their luster if you let them. Make time to acknowledge and appreciate the big and little things that you have: the hope that has birthed joy, the goals you have achieved, the hard work that finally paid off, the wishes that have come to fruition, the dreams that have become a reality all deserve their rightful place on your list of things to be grateful for. From time to time, make time to count them, smile, and bask in the warmth of your gratitude. ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!  

Without a doubt, it is time to be intentional. As a child, you are subject to the decisions of the adults around you, but as one, you can choose. Choose to make a different choice- better choices. One by one, they will add up and pay off, but you must be intentional while building. One of your first childhood lessons in school is how to build- a tower or office building. Your building blocks must be steady to be sturdy. Be just as intentional now as you were then, and start building. The best intentions are followed up with action. Make better choices, and watch your intentions become tangible.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!  

Relax. There is no rush. There is nothing so pressing that you cannot just be, today. If you so choose, you can be happy with the life you are living right now. At this very moment, you can choose to count your blessings more than your problems. You can choose to embrace the warmth of the morning sunrise, the tickle of the chilled rain soaking your skin in the thunderstorm, or the graze of the summer's breeze across your skin at the day's end. You can choose to just be... happy... intentionally, thoroughly, and unapologetically enjoying your life.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!
