Cat & Mouse

In this life, you just have to go after what you really want if you want to get it. What or who will stop you: your demanding job, your dysfunctional family, your bad back? Those are excuses for the weak, the mice. You can tuck your tail and go running scared into the murky abyss of mediocrity that makes everyone around you very comfortable with the underwhelming life they lead, or you can take control. Do what you need to do to get what you want. You already know the most important thing there is to know: nothing can keep you from what you really want if you really want it bad enough. Even if that means getting up early, before dawn, and before your alarm, even if it means staying up late, in silence with no sound or disruption but the clicking of your keyboard, burning the midnight oil until the birds chirp, do that. Nothing will stop you when you know what you want and will be damned if you do not get it. In this moment all of your attention needs to be set on your intention.  Make

Be Good To Yourself

Remember to be good to you. Sooner than later, send yourself an edible arrangement, pencil in some time for much needed R&R, take an impromptu trip, treat yourself to a nice dinner. Do something, anything to put a smile on your own face. In between the blood, sweat, and tears you will shed in this lifetime, remember to insert intentional joy in your life as well. Do things with the sole purpose of enjoyment, creativity, exploration, and uplifting your own spirit. Make memories worth remembering because there may come a time where memories are all you left. Make the most of the time you have right now. spend it wisely. Make sure you make time to do things for others, yes, but do what is good for you too. Do not forget to make time to do things that simply make you happy because your happiness is ultimately your responsibility. ~For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  _TheAnswerKey  daily!

Be Courageous

Image
You have to decide that what you envision your life to be, will be, and refuse to have it any other way. Appreciate the clarity and wisdom your experiences have given you thus far. Move forward knowing that what your life unfolds, opens up, and reveals itself to be as of tomorrow is entirely up to you and the result of what you are willing to do today. You can let your past be the reason you never answer your calling and nothing will change. You will have a pretty good idea of what tomorrow and the next day will look like, or you can answer your calling today, and change yourself, change your future, and for everyone that crosses your path- change their minds. Let them see what vision looks like as a reality, what working faith looks like up close. Let your courage be the light that draws someone else closer to their dream, their best, their greatness- lead the way. ~For more positive posts stop by fb.me/TheAnswerKey & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey daily!

Anything Can Happen

Believe in yourself and your gifts. No matter what anyone else thinks, how far fetched it seems to them, how difficult, or damn near impossible others fathom it to be; know that those limitations are based on their fears, their anxiety, and previous experiences. They have nothing to do with you personally, therefore, you do not have to allow them to predict your future. You can make your tomorrows however you choose them to be.  People often like to take the moment you choose to commit to your passion to remind you of your mistakes, but rest assure that even your mistakes were only moving you closer to your dream's reality.   Who's to say today, tomorrow, or at any moment your life will not be changed forever? No one, so in living your life, spending the time you have with gratitude, passion, and compassion, let it be filled with your greatest efforts, purposeful intentions, and belief that at any moment your life will show up for you in kind. ~For more positive posts stop by f
