Make today a different day
Instead of doing the same old thing, be creative and do things to improve your day.
Surrender the need to control. Let go.. Happiness begins within.

Appreciate each person’s good points
Everyone is human and has both good and bad things about them. Let’s strive to look for the good points in other so that we can get along.

The key to solving problems is within you
The problems that appear before you can surely be solved. Give it your best effort, and the answers will come to you as long as you remain strong in your conviction that all will turn out well.
It is important to be assertive, but maintaining harmony is just as important.
Say what is on your mind clearly, but don’t be overly attached to your views. Respect the points of view of others and always seek to find a happy medium.

Being considerate of others is just as important as what works for you.
Always be mindful of the situations of others, not just your own. To have a good relationship with those around you always think of what is important to them too.

Always be cheerful, happy and good humored.
When you make an effort to be cheerful and happy you will naturally begin to feel that way.
The gateway to happiness lies within your reach. It is always open to you, you simply have to know that happiness begins within, Always be yourself, don’t try to be someone you aren’t.
Have you used a stapler lately, mine ran out out of staples, and for a few minutes.. I actually wondered what was wrong with it.. then I had to scramble to remember where the replacements were.!!! finally found, I had a bit of a chuckle as I looked at the stapler to determine how to put the replacements in. Like duh, this was such an easy fix … thankfully I have a “junk” drawer in my office for items seldom used, BUT could be useful one day… Have you used a stapler lately?

It is interesting because it’s different
Even if someone totally disagrees with you or does things differently, you may learn something from them. Avoid getting trapped in the mindset, “This is the way it has to be,” and free your mind to consider other possibilities.
Have a wonderful start to a new week.

Accept Everything
Life is filled with moments, sometimes happy and a times, inconvenient. It is important to first accept every situation as it occurs and try to accept and understand it for what it is.
There is a quiet
that engulfs and captures my thoughts
a quiet that fills me with a feeling full of an emotion
I can not name
it isn’t part of a game, nor do I seek fame
But, I do want to lay claim
To the ever present energy
That courses through my veins
is this an insanity or am I sane….. and
all the chatter is in vain
I ask
does it even matter
the moment has passed
Q
Past, Present or Future, always remember to be sincere and Honest. At anytime, the place where you are standing at that moment is the stage upon which you must express yourself. At each moment in time, there is sure to be a way to express yourself in relation to your position or status.

All the little reindeer are getting ready for their big haul coming up. They have to keep in shape, work their muscles, and keep their limbs flexible… build their stamina. We are being told to expect our first big snow drop…there were snow dustings yesterday. Time to put the sand and a shovel into the car, make sure the ice and snow scrapers are within reach. You ready?
When you get stuck, go back to the beginning
Could it be that you have forgotten what initially sparked your enthusiasm? By remembering what inspired you in the beginning, you will feel a renewed enthusiasm.
For those of you following the car saga, Its back, however it is not finished, there is still a problem with the wi-fi system, I can get calls, but no one can hear me.. could be the speaker or another wire that is malfunctioning!… but it can’t go back in till the 10th. Not having it for over a week, means I have a lot of “catch up ” to do. Positive side. I will be unavailable while in my car /out on runs etc… just like in the good old days of landlines and no wi-fi in cars. Always look for the silver lining!!!!!!
Have a great day everyone, and IF you are in an area where the snow is coming or has come, please be prepared. Check your anti-freeze, the windshield washer fluids are they minus weather grade, do you have a shovel, sand/salt in the car if you travel outside the city a must ….. yup winter is here. In Canada winter tires are a necessity … NB* in some Provinces you will be ticketed or fined if you are travelling without them. Take heed. Be Prepared.
