Welcome to my blog! My name is Mary Ellen Pierce and I want to invite you to Get Jazzed & Joyful about who you are, every day in every way! I believe that no matter what you do in life, it is important to believe in yourself and your goals and to realize it's okay to enjoy the journey and have fun along the way!
Along my journey I have discovered my inner artist to help me create expressions of myself using collage, altered art, mixed media and scrapbook techniques. I have enlisted the aid of my inner cheerleader to keep me motivated to be the Best ME that I can be!
And I want to inspire others to realize that when you get Jazzed and Joyful about being You, then what you do will turn into success, prosperity and happiness!

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Tuesday!

Today is Valentines Day. Today children will be going to school clutching their bag full of valentines to give to their classmates and their teachers. They will be eagerly awaiting all the valentines that will be given to them. When they go home they will be excited to show all their valentines to mom and dad.
In the child's view they are excited about love itself! They are excited and eager to show love simply, innocently, fully and completely just for the sake of love itself.
Today let's take our cue from children. Today let's demonstrate true love to everyone we encounter. True love is about unconditional acceptance - so let there be no judgment of self or others today.
True love is a smile and warm glow that won't go away - so share your smile and warm the soul of everyone you meet today.
True love offers compassion and melts the frigid exterior of the most hardened hearts - so offer kindness today to someone who would least expect it.
True love emanates from within so fill your own heart with love of self and let it overflow and spill out to the world.
Put no one outside your heart today. See how wonderful your day unfolds when love is the driving force. It will feel so good you may just want to do it all week!

Affirm:
Today I allow love to color my world.

Have a love filled week!

Show your Appreciation today!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today is appreciation Day! Start with yourself. Find 3 things you appreciate about yourself. It might be that you appreciate your sense of humor, that you did the dishes or put out the trash before you left the house this morning or it might be that you appreciate that you got gas last night so you didn't have to fill up before you went to work.
Next, start with your family, tell your spouse, your children, your parents, even your pets something you appreciate about them.
Next are the people you encounter today; your friends, co-workers, the bank clerk, grocery clerk or gas station attendant.
At this time of year when it is colder and rainy we take for granted the services that others provide for us and the effort it took to do it.

Think of the postal workers bundled up walking their routes to deliver your mail.
Think of the sanitation workers that come to take away your trash.
The Meter readers that come to read the gas meter.
The Tanker drivers that deliver fuel to gas stations or fuel to your home if you use propane heat.
The utility workers that work out in the cold to retore and repair power lines.
The store clerks that come out and bring in all the carts from the parking lot.

When you go through the drive thru have appreciation for the hardy soul that has to keep opening the window to take your money while you stay warm and cozy in your car.
Appreciation is a powerful tool and a wonderful gift that you give someone today.
So whenever you can speak your appreciation directly to that person Do it - and see the startled smile on their face grow bigger and bigger.

Affirm:
  I will look for and speak and show appreciation for everyone today!

Have an Appreciative Tuesday!

24 Hours Complaint Free?

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Can you go 24 hours without complaining about anything? Find out - Today challenge yourself to see if you can go a whole day without being negative or complaining about anyone or anything. Instead see if you can say something positive, productive, find a solution, pay a compliment, find a gratitude, point out something good that you noticed, something humorous; look for the good in everything and everyone today.
You will be amazed at the results. Encourage your coworkers, family, and friends to join you in this challenge. The only rule is when you catch yourself being negative or complaining - STOP! and re-frame it with something positive.
Have fun with this and don't use this exercise to beat yourself up - remember even in your own head the challenge is to stop complaining or being negative. Go for it!

Affirm:
      I challenge myself to go 24 hours complaint free! I can do it!

Have a gentle discovery Tuesday!

Walk your Talk Today

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Your actions demonstrate the truth of your words.
So become aware and pay attention to your own words and see if your actions match up with them. If not, ask yourself why. Did you say yes when you meant no? Were you people pleasing? Were you afraid of confrontation and said whatever it took to avoid it? Did you have good inentions but allow fear to stop you?

There's a good reason for the saying "Actions speak louder than words." People HEAR your words and SEE your actions. Do you follow through on your talk or do you tend to have lots of talk and little action? Discover what areas of your life may need to be aligned and matched up.

Sometimes just becoming aware that our words and our actions are not matched up motivate a self change. Don't beat yourself up with your discovery simply use it to make an adjustment that will enhance your personal integrity.

Affirm:
     Today I practice self awareness so that I align my walk with my talk.

Think your best thoughts today

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Did you know that two thoughts cannot occupy the same space at the same time? It's True!
Did you know that what you are thinking triggers how you are feeling? It's True!

So the Truth is:
You can't think negative thoughts at the same time you're thinking positive thoughts.
You can't be depressed while thinking happy, positive thoughts.
You can't be discouraged while thinking positive hopeful thoughts.
You can't be fearful while thinking confident, Yes I Can! thoughts.
You can't be miserable while thinking gratitude thoughts.
You can't be stressed out while thinking positively calm and serene thoughts.

So Today, realize that if you want to feel better, happier, calmer all you have to do is choose to think better, happier, calmer thoughts!

Affirm:
     Today I THINK my best thoughts so I FEEL my best!

Have a Thoughtful Tuesday!

Do you have a support network?

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today's focus is on your support network. Who are the people that you can count on to raise your spirits, that support your greatest good, that will tell you the truth, speak from their heart to yours. People that are positive, that cheer you on in your dreams and goals.
People that when you get done talking to them you feel better, you are in a better mood, you feel good about you.
Hang onto those people that exist right now for you and that you feel support you with positivity, truth and love. And then set your intention to draw into your support network more of the same.

Affirm:
Today I look for and seek out people that are positive, healthy and nurturing for my positive support network!

Have a Positively Terrific Tuesday!
