You Brought The Sunshine!

March 18, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway 5 Comments

“Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.”

~James M. Barrie

What do you bring into the lives of the people moving within your everyday environment?

Does your mere approach bring doom and gloom – or are you known and loved as the one who brought the sunshine?

Today, let’s all make a conscious decision to bring the sunshine to everyone we meet.

We’ll keep the negative words and the negative vibes at bay. Instead, focus on being a positive force. How ‘bout you go about shining some much-needed light on every person coming within your individual circles of influence?

They’ll enjoy the light – and so will you.

You brought the sunshine!

Who To Fall In Love With?

Want to know who to fall in love with?

Fall in love with someone who’s comfortable with your silence.

Find someone who doesn’t need your words to know it’s time to kiss you.

Chassitie and Josh Thornton did just that – and you’ll never guess where they met!

How To Make Progress

March 8, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Want to know how to make progress?

Consider the sage words of wisdom from the late, great Shirley Chisholm:

You don’t make progress by standing on the sidelines, whimpering and complaining. You make progress by implementing ideas.

Shirley Chisholm

Whether in life, love, business, personal improvement, spirituality, whatever, making progress involves effort.

It involves putting yourself out there, being willing to get off your seat of do-nothing out of your comfort zone and take risks.

If making progress could be gained by complaining, blaming and pointing fingers I dare say most people would have circled the earth 10 times over.

If we want to accomplish goals and excel, then we’ll have to engage in the same processes legends such as Shirley Chisholm and countless others did.

Get those ideas out of your head, and take action.

Execute.

Implement.

Progress.

Happy International Women’s Day 2016!

Go Forth And Slay!

March 4, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

So, it’s a new month – and we’re already 4 days in.

YIKES!

Have you predetermined what you want to accomplish this month?

Have you written down some daily goals?

Have you mapped out the actions and steps that will enable you to place a satisfactory “check” next to the tasks you intend to complete?

I believe approaching the month and weeks in an “I’m ready to conquer the world” state of mind is half the battle.

Confidence + action = results.

Let’s go forth and slay!

Discomfort Is Good!

February 29, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

“Discomfort is always a necessary part of enlightenment.”

―Pearl Cleage

That statement resonates with me and I wholeheartedly embrace it as truth.

Getting out of one’s comfort zone and experiencing discomfort is beneficial, because it stretches you and makes you grow.

Discomfort also causes us to reflect, look within, and come face to face with areas in our lives we need to change.

We can’t do or be better than we know to do or be – and that’s why enlightenment is so important.

Discomfort? Discomfort is good!

Serendipity!

February 26, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway 3 Comments

Serendipity (noun)

Finding something good without looking for it.

Today’s featured couple, Martin and Takyrica Kokoszka, experienced serendipity when they met one another.

Takyrica says, “We met on vacation in Las Vegas at a nightclub (the unlikely place to find true love!). Dated long distance for a year and then he moved to Chicago, and we got married shortly after.”

Five years and three children later, Martin and Takyrica are still in love and still going strong.

There’s something to be said for serendipity, wouldn’t you agree?

Join in the Fray: When have you experienced serendipity in your life?
