Want to fall in love, and have someone fall in love with you?

Just be yourself.

You don’t have to try to be mysterious and challenging.

Just be yourself. For that special someone, you will be more than enough.

#41| Only The Best Will Do

February 10, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimagePWhite41F

I often wonder why people content themselves with settling for second best.

Do they choose this option because they feel they can’t get anything else – or do they become tired of “waiting?”

When only the best will do, not only do you active purse it, you refuse to be satisfied with less.

In what area of your life are you tempted to settle – and in essence, to give up?

Don’t do it!

You deserve the best – and only the best will do.

It’s Monday, but it doesn’t have to be blue.

Happiness is a choice, and we make that choice within.

Today, I choose happiness.

#39| The Fierceness

February 8, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageMercy39F

We often speak of adults as being “fierce,” but what about children?

I believe children manifest the fierceness already inherent in them when we diligently pour positive affirmations and encouragement into their little lives.

Let the children in your life know they are special, unique and one-of-a-kind.

As you raise them, celebrate them.

As you interact with them, encourage them.

So tell me: Is this baby girl fierce, or what?

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. ~Psalm 139:14

#38| Self Defined

February 7, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageFavourI38F

Be honest with yourself: How hung up are you on what other people think?

Do you allow the thoughts and opinions of others to prevent you from being your true self?

Are you afraid to pursue your own personal dream or forge your own trail because you’re afraid of being ridiculed?

Today, understand and acknowledge the fact that you chart your course; you establish your own personal landscape.

It’s called being self-defined.

If you don’t set your own standards, someone else certainly will.

#36| Eyes Wide Open

February 5, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageAlliBaba36F

It’s February 5 – have you created your travel vision board yet?

It’s “Travel Thursday” and we want to inspire you to not just dream about taking a trip or going on vacation this year, but actually do it.

Need some additional inspiration? Click here to listen to a podcast with Lorraine Spencer concerning the importance of traveling.

Let 2015 be the year you have your eyes wide open for opportunities to save money for your trip.

Sure, a new handbag, shoes or jewelry is a great pick-me-up. Eventually, the newness will wear out and those items will become old.

The sense of adventure, joys and well-being gained from travel – these intrinsic aspects of the experience will last forever.
