The Answer Key

Be led by your passion always. Even when it wavers, dwindles, or wains find a way to reignite your flame and fan it. Never be defeated no matter what challenges show up to deter, distract, or discourage you. Surround yourself with people that encourage you to go after your dream and confide in them when you are feeling defeated, depleted, or unmotivated. Be led by your passion and slap down fear in all of its forms when it shows up in your life. Believe in yourself, in the power of your passion, and the purpose of your being. Dare to dream and dream big. ~For more positive posts stop by fb.me/TheAnswerKey & www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey daily. Rest in Peace Dr. Maya Angelou

You have every right to be unavailable for drama, chaos, negativity, anger, or bitterness. You have the option to refuse to entertain anything that would only serve as a means of depleting the goodness and peace within you. It is not only your right but your duty to welcome, participate, and encourage positive, loving experiences and have little room for anything less. ~Come check out fb.me/TheAnswerKey & www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey for more positive posts daily.

Being sad, mad, or disappointed takes up way too much energy. It is wasteful and it is draining. You must remember that your experiences are temporary. Do not force yourself to relive anything that does not positively serve you. Your energy should be put to better use. Change the course of your thoughts. Positively redirect your thinking to what is right, well, working in your favor, and to your benefit, and focus on that. Things, circumstances, and especially people will disappoint you from time to time. Feel what you must, but do not allow yourself to dwell on anything that does not set you on track, in the direction of, or on your way to a better experience.  ~For more positive posts check out fb.me/TheAnswerKey & www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey daily.

 The biggest obstacle you have is to conquer your own self-doubt. Choosing what you want is easy, but the voice of doubt looms, the fear of failure is palpable, and the distractions are unlimited. Still deciding to go after what you want despite all of those things in addition to the the unknown, well, that is the hardest part, but if you know in your heart and believe with all the faith you can muster up that it is already yours; the only reasonable choice is to get on with the chase. Be persistent, be confident, be relentless. Go get it... Fight for it... Grab hold of it like it already belonged to you, you temporarily misplaced it, and you are back to reclaim it. As long as you are still here you still have time- now GO! ~For more positive posts check out fb.me/TheAnswerKey & www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey daily.

Be grateful for every single challenge; they all show up to show you something. They show you that you can do better. Be grateful for every trial, they are teaching you how to be better. Be grateful for every obstacle, they are testing what you already know. Be grateful for everyone that walks away because they have no business sharing your future. Know that everything that shows up in your life, every person, every experience, every day is only showing up for you and your betterment, but only if you let it. Mindfully seek their true purpose outside of your emotions. Know that every experience in your life shows up to serve you because nothing shows up for no reason at all. Focus on what you are meant to learn, take heed, and be grateful for the lesson. ~For more positive posts follow me at  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  &  www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey .

Do not be afraid to take a beat when you need it. Listen to your internal clock, and give yourself permission to take it. When your patience is running low, your energy is in need of a boost, your body is exhausted, or your mind is over worked take a moment for yourself to relax, rest, revive, re-energize, and rejuvenate. There is nothing wrong with a few uplifting words from a friend, a happy song, a pleasant scent, or simply enjoying peace and quiet to boost the joy, peace, or positivity in your life. Whatever else is going on can wait for you to do that. There should not be anything more important to you than your happiness and your peace. Never put them in someone else's hands, pocket, or run on someone else's clock. Your happiness is your business and should be your first priority. Take your moment when you need it, and get back to happy. ~For more positive posts follow me at www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey & fb.me/TheAnswerKey .

Every challenge, obstacle, difficult situation or person you come in contact with is serving a purpose. All of our struggles show up for a reason. Every experience happens to serve you, not just to make your life more difficult and stop there. Nothing is just there to give you a hard time. If you look closely you will find that your life is constantly unfolding in different directions to lead you to the path that best serves you emotionally, intellectually, spiritually. You are constantly evolving intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually- how much is up to you. Only you can be sure that you are not only getting older but wiser. Only you can be sure that every time something fails, disappoints, or lets you down you can make something come of that experience that you can be grateful for now or in the future.
