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!

Welcome to the Winners Circle!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

When I was in the theatre, the director would always say, "If you don't know your line or where you're supposed to be, stay in the moment and just act like you know what you're doing and the audience won't know the difference."

That's how it is in life too. If you forget that you are a Divine Creation, that you have all the talents, skills and potential to be magnificent then visualize the Divine Director saying to you, " If you forget who you are or where you are going, stay in the moment and just act like you know what you're doing and everyone else won't know the difference."

If you do it enough times then perhaps even You won't know the difference between faking it and making it, when you start acting and going in the direction of your Greatness.

Affirm:
  Today I Act like a Winner, I Talk like a Winner and I Know where I am going: to the Winner's Circle!

Have a Winning Weekend!

Create a Be Your Best Ripple

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Did you know that in the Universal Design of All that is - there are no EXTRA human beings brought into this existence for the express purpose of just taking up air space?
Did you know that every human being was created with magnificence in mind?
Did you know that the seeds of Greatness were planted within you from the very beginning?
Did you know that regardless of your past that you can make a fresh start Today? Right now in this moment?
Did you know that when you choose to be the Best You that you can be - that alone is a Powerful Purpose?
Did you know that there is no one else who can be a better You than You?

So reflect on the fact that all you have to do today is to be the BEST YOU you can be. And in so doing you create a ripple effect that encourages everyone else to be their Best. And they in turn, create a Be Your Best ripple ... and on and on it goes expanding out further and further.

Did you know that the world is a better place with you in it? IT IS!
You are important and You matter.

Affirm:
     Today I will be the Best Me I can Be!

Have your Best You ever today!

Deservability

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
There is more than enough in the Universe for everyone.
Lack is only a state of mind, a belief system that was handed down to us from our childhoods.
Lack reflects a state of mind that says you are not worthy or deserving of having the best of everything- that you have to "earn" it - whatever "it" is.
Today change your state of mind by changing that belief system. Start using the Law of Repetition that states that anything we repeatedly do, think or say on a regular, continuous basis becomes habit.

So Affirm and Repeat after me:
   I am Worthy and Deserving of Health, Wealth and Well Being and there is more than enough in the Universe to go around.

Make this new thought a habit and watch your life expand abundantly in all areas!

Have a New Habit Wednesday!

What if ....

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Sometimes we find ourselves stuck in the "what ifs". Just for today see what happens when you focus on having gratitude and appreciation for "what is" working in your life. If you can't let go of the "what if" negatives then at least say a "what if" positive to balance it out. After all a what if positive has just as much chance of happening as the what if negative.

Affirm:
     Today I ask myself, "What if I stay positive, think positive thoughts and feel positively great?"

Have a great Monday finding out the answer-

Today is a new day!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Yesterday is over. Today is a brand new day. If you started your day today thinking about what happened yesterday and trying to rehash it, analyze it, figure it out, recriminations about all the what ifs, should haves and whys- STOP!
Yesterday is Oooover. Today is a brand new day. Focus today on what you CAN do, all the possibilities that exist in this day. Focus on how you will make today a better day, a more successful day, a prosperous day.

You can't have a better yesterday however you CAN have a better tomorrow by using Today wisely.

Affirm:
     Today I invest my time and energy in the here and now as a building block for tomorrow's successes.

Have a great today and Weekend!

Have a Great Day!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

What would your day be like if you woke up with positive thoughts? If you got out of bed with an attitude of gratitude? If you looked in the mirror when you were brushing your teeth and stopped and smiled and said "Hey good looking - it's going to be a Great Day!"

If while you were having your morning cup of coffee you took a minute to read something funny and uplifting to balance the dismal news?
If when you saw your spouse, your children - yes even your pets you paused a moment to smile at them and say "I love you and you're going to have a great day today!"
If when you were driving to work and someone beeped their horn at you or traffic was moving too slow that you smiled and said out loud "I am still going to have a Great Day and I wish all of you a fantastic day too!"
If when you walked into work and each person you saw you greeted them with "Good morning! I am glad you're here because it's going to be a great day today!"
If during the day you made a point to say Thank You to your co-workers for even the little things.
If no matter what happened at work no matter what moods other people were in you just kept smiling, being cheerful, being appreciative with an inner knowing that you were still having a great day!

What would that day be like? Try it today and see for yourself. Be the catalyst for having a great day. Smiles and positive attitudes are contagious so start an epidemic of joy!

Affirm:
     Today I demonstrate what a great day feels like!

Have a Great Day today!
And then do it again each day!
