Take time to get re-centered

A few months ago I accepted a challenge to myself to do a daily blog around the trilogy of being healthy, wealthy, and wise.  Lately, I haven’t been keeping up with the daily challenge.  I was feeling overwhelmed with work, life, training, and struggling to find a balance for it all.

Friendship over opinions

I feel very blessed that I’ve got a group of friends in which I can talk politics and know that my friendship is not in jeopardy over a difference of opinion.  It’s especially apparent to me in times of particular heated topics, like this recent tragic mass murder in Orlando.  As soon as I read…

Never forget

If you eat less or eat better, you will lose weight.  If you floss every day you will have better teeth.  If you regularly fertilize your lawn you will have healthy grass.  If you spend less than you make you will have better finances.  If you practice gratitude you will be more content and happy….
