The Ten Commandments of Self-Esteem

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

I came across a book that I have had and read over the years and I thought it was worth reading again and passing along:
It is The Ten Commandments of Self-Esteem by Dr. Catherine Cardinal-

I.       Thou shalt not consort with people who make thee feel bad about thyself.
II.     Thou shalt cease trying to make sense out of crazy behavior.
III.    Thou shalt not keep company with those more dysfunctional than thyself.
IV.    Trust thy body all the days of thy life (Thy mind doth fornicate with thee)
V.     Thou hast permission at all times to say "No", to change thy mind and to express thy true feelings.
VI.    What is not right for thee is not right for thy brethren.
VII.   Thou shalt not give beyond thine own capacity.
VIII. What thy brethren think of thee matterth naught.
IX.   Wherever thou art, therein lies the party.
X.    Thou shalt sing thine own praises all the days of thy life.

Awesome! Check it out for yourself -It is only 81 pages and is so worth the read!

Make today a Great Day!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

And that is the message today. Make today a good day - even a great day! You can do it because the difference between a good day or a bad day is all in the way that you think about today. Thinking positively allows you to view any speed bumps as opportunities to use your problem solving abilities, to get creative, improve your patience, fine tune your communication skills, delegate some tasks off your lengthy to do list and keep your attitude from spiraling downward into negativity.

Affirm:
No matter what happens I will keep my thoughts and actions on turning today into a great day!

Have a Great Thursday!

Let's 'Git er' Done today!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today discern the difference between activity and accomplishment. A daily schedule can be filled with lots of activity, swirls of motion going in many directions. The question to ask is how much is really being accomplished?
Progress and success are not determined by how busy we appear to be but by the number of tasks we get done.

Affirm:
     Today I show the difference between Let's get moving and Let's Get It Done!

How to have a Blessed to be You day!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today make the decision that just for this day, this 24 hours, that you are too blessed to be stressed, too happy to be sad, too hopeful to be depressed, too calm to be rattled, too cheerful to be aggravated by people, places or things, too successful to consider failure, too open to all possibilities to be stuck in a rut. Then when you experience what 24 hours of that feels like - you will decide to do it every day.

Affirm:
Today, it's good to be Me because my day is filled with blessings of happiness, hope, cheerfulness, success and serenity!

Have a Blessed to be You Thursday!

Today Matters

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today is the day that matters.
The day with the greatest potential for accomplishment.

No matter where your thoughts go, time is always in the Now - not yesterday, last week, last month, last year. It is not tomorrow, next week or next year. It is always NOW. Choosing to be in the Now allows you to maximize opportunities of Today. Focus your thoughts, your intentions and energy on Today and what you can do right now, in the here and now.

Affirm:
    I stay positive in the present moment and I achieve the maximum positive results possible in the NOW.

Have an in the NOW Wednesday!
