Draw The Line

Be kind and willing to give freely of yourself to others. That said, only give your all to those who will not take you and your kindness for granted. Trust that you will know or learn the difference. The moment you notice it, immediately do something about it. First and foremost, save yourself- create and keep your distance. No one should have the chance to milk you any longer than they already have. As soon as you find yourself being taken for granted- 1. Do not blame yourself. Your generosity is not a defect. 2. Bounce back. Decide what you will do differently if you see history repeating itself. 3. Learn your lesson. Do not change your nature; that is who you are. Change the people you offer yourself to that do not value you. Giving, compassionate, generous people have often fallen for the schemes of those who will always take more than an inch or a mile. Now is the time to draw a line with them and make sure it is in PERMANENT MARKER. Do what comes naturally to you, but be mindful of those that know your nature and would take advantage of it. No matter what, stay true to yourself, and surround yourself with people that will be true to you too. ~For more positive posts stop by www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey & fb.me/TheAnswerKey daily!

Feeling Stagnant? Get Unstuck...

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!

Let Go Like Elsa

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!

I.Y.K.Y.K.

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!
