Bring Sunshine To Your Life

A busy chipmunk on our hike above Ouray Colorado this past weekend.

 When you wake up, what kind of mood are you in? How strong are you on the inside? When you wake are you ready to bring sunshine to your life? Take a deep breath and awake to the beautiful promises the world has in store for you. Every moment, every hour, is meant to be cherished and to be fulfilling. Choose to bring sunshine to your life. Remember that life is more of a marathon than a sprint. You have the opportunity to start your race again every morning. This fresh start that is presented to you allows you to have the chance to get everything beautiful that you desire in life. Focus on what's within instead of what you're without. People chase dreams, money, and love. Rather than seek what joy already exists in their soul, they seek fulfillment and satisfaction from what is afar. Learn to be content and happy with everything you have, and watch your self-esteem and courage soar. Happiness is a state of mind- not what can be found in obtaining any particular possession. Start with these few things and bring sunshine to your life. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for visiting my thought today.

Just Let Go

Just as important as the goals you are reaching toward, however, are the things you are intentionally letting go of. A big part of designing a good life is being able to let go of things that hold you back in life and things that are not important to you. Start with Letting go of bad habbits. Work on being kind and loving to yourself and others around you. Let go of perfection. Waiting to do something until the timing is perfect often means you’ll never do it at all. Let go of living the life that everyone else has planned for you. It’s time to design your life the way you want to live it remembering that our Lord is in control and has a plan for you. Let go of sitting on the sidelines. Life’s too short to sit there and watch it pass you by just because you don’t think you have the ‘perfect’ body, you’re ‘too old,’ you’re ‘too young,’ or you’re too whatever. Just let go today and start living. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way.

Make A Decision

Canyon Lands National Park this past weekend, Moab Utah.

Make A Decision

One thing we all have in common is making choices every day, whether we like it or not. Decisions are a big part of our daily life and often we struggle with making the right one. That’s when doubt and distractions get in the way. And we end up regretting our choice, feeling bad about it, and constantly wondering if we could have made a wiser decision. To make a decision easier we should not over think the situation, even if it’s a simple one we encounter daily. We often waste time deciding what to wear, whether to call someone or not and what to eat for each meal. In cases like that, there’s no wrong option really. So just do it. Take action right away before your brain has the chance to think of different scenarios and confuse you. After the decision is made be sure to stay positive. No matter what you choose, you can always make the best of it. How we handle life is all about our attitude towards it and how we react to what happens to us. So be optimistic. Know that you’re doing your best and no decision can make you regret that. The worst decision you could make would be to not make one at all. So stop holding back and make it with confidence. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way.

Time Is Limited

Green River overlook this past weekend at Canyonlands National Park, Moab Utah.

Our time is limited. We only have 24 hours in a day. And if we want to work on the things we believe in, but to also have time to rest, have fun and be with our loved ones, we’ll need to prioritize. Stop accepting every proposal you get, don’t start new projects every week, don’t set many goals at once and avoid working on more than one thing at a time. All this will improve your performance and help you exceed in life, as you’ll only be working on the things that actually matter. You’ll also be happier and will prevent burnout. Adding stuff is never the answer. To get back to your path in life, to see clearly where you’re going and to start having fun and be calm again, you’ll need to remove anything that’s not essential. Keep only what’s important to you. There’s no time for the rest. Don't forget that a simpler life is a happier life. Also don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way.

God Bless
