The Past, Present & Future

What have you done today that your future self will thank you for?

Living a Life of No Regrets

We all have something stored in our memories of the past that we wish we could have done differently, or something we wish we didn’t do.

One Word Can Make A Difference

Every single word or sentence has the power to move people toward you or away from you. Using the right words can inspire, embrace, acknowledge, intrigue, validate, and include others in a positive way. Words are powerful things. They can uplift and they can burn. They can cause confusion and they can create clarity.  WordsContinue reading “One Word Can Make A Difference”
