Sometimes the lemons coming your way aren’t the kind you can just squeeze for lemonade. They’re heavy, sour, and downright stubborn. Yet, excuses won’t get you anywhere. When the chaos of life has you tangled, this is exactly when you need to stand up and challenge yourself. Sure, motivation feels like an elusive friend. Some days, the right words—the spark to keep moving—slip right through your mind. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But that’s not where your story ends. You are made for more. Not just a vague promise or feel-good mantra. You. Are. Made. For. More. But here's the catch? You have to be your own fiercest believer. No one else is going to shove those boots back on and push you forward—it’s on you. So stop hanging up your boots just because the path got rocky. The K.I.S.S. ~ Challenge yourself!   Challenge yourself to push beyond the limits you think you have. You can do more than you currently believe. However, none of this happens by simply wishing for it. It takes action. Real, gritty, unglamorous action to change your direction. If today feels like the day you want to give in, don’t. Choose challenge—choose growth. When life tries to drown you in excuses and chaos, rise up and be who you are becoming. It won't be easy. It never is. But then, nothing worth doing ever is. Today, challenge yourself! "Be present.

Every day, you're faced with a choice: give in to temptation or stand firm with discipline. The difference between these paths isn’t just about what you do in the moment—it shapes your entire future. Choose discipline over temptation. Think about your everyday choices. What do you choose normally when it comes to healthy living? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Temptations feel easier because they come with built-in familiarity. You know the comfort of that junk food, the immediate relief of skipping a workout, or the ease of letting your health slide just one more day. There are no surprises. It’s passive, almost automatic. Discipline, on the other hand, demands intention. It means pushing yourself when you don’t want to, saying no when everything inside screams yes, and choosing the long game over immediate pleasure. Discipline isn’t cozy or easy, but it’s powerful—and it’s the only way to truly change your health. So why do so many people fall into the trap of temptation? Because it’s easier, faster, and doesn’t require fighting the voice inside their head. But that ease comes with a price: chronic fatigue, illness, low self-esteem, and days, months, or years lost to bad habits. Now, imagine locking in discipline where it really counts and leaving temptations behind for good. Picture your life energized, your body strong, your mind clear—and all because you chose what matters over what feels easy. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose what matters over what feels easy!   Cause easy is too easy!! Anything worth having takes work and dedication. You have one body and you need to take care of it. Otherwise, it can't take care of you. You'll be saying bye faster than you realize it. So, what can you do to choose what matters over what feels easy? Here are three concrete steps to build that discipline and reclaim your health: <ol> <li> Anchor Your Why<br /> Discipline isn’t just about willpower—it’s about meaning. Get crystal clear on why healthy living matters to you. Write it down. Maybe it’s having energy to play with your kids, or avoiding chronic disease, or simply waking up feeling proud. "When your 'why' is strong, discipline turns from a chore into your compass. ~ Kristianne Wargo" </li> <li> Design Your Environment to Win<br /> Temptations thrive when they’re easy to access. So make discipline automatic by controlling your surroundings. Clear out junk food from your kitchen. Set out workout clothes the night before. Schedule your workouts like appointments. When your environment nudges you towards discipline, choosing healthy gets easier—even on your worst days. </li> <li> Build Tiny Consistent Habits<br /> Discipline isn’t about drastic changes; it’s about daily wins stacking up. Start with small, achievable steps—drink an extra glass of water, take a 10-minute walk, or swap soda for sparkling water. "These tiny choices build momentum, proving to yourself that you’re in control. Over time, discipline becomes a habit, not a battle. ~ Kristianne Wargo" </li> </ol> The truth? If you want a healthy life, you have to be ready to outwork your temptations. No one bats a thousand every day, but every time you choose discipline, you send a message—to your body, your mind, and your future self—that your health is non-negotiable. Stop waiting for motivation. Stop making excuses. Your health depends on what you decide today. Will you let temptation dictate your life, or will discipline lead you to the body and energy you deserve? Your move—choose discipline. "Be present. Be incredible.

You’ll face moments when the bitter outweighs the sweet, when the lemons piled in front of you seem endless and your lemonade is nowhere to be found. But your circumstances don’t define you. No matter how hard it hits, stand in victory. Don’t carry your mistakes like weights dragging you down. Stand on them. Let your failures be the stepping stones that elevate you, not the burdens you lug around. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Every misstep is an opportunity – a lesson carved from hard experience that builds your path forward. Own your story, scars and all. “One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.”  Progress isn’t about giant leaps, but steady movement. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, and you’ll break through barriers you once thought immovable. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stand in victory!   Be cautious about regret, as it can be a trap. It shackles your mind to past failures and stalls your future. Instead of sinking into "what ifs," commit to standing in victory. Rise when you fall. Every stumble sharpens your resilience—makes you tougher, smarter, more prepared for what’s next. Remember this: never regret. If it’s good, it's a blessing. If it’s bad, it's a lesson. Either way, you’re moving forward. So when life comes crashing with its chaos, when the easy path disappears and doubt creeps in, choose to stand tall. Stand loud. Stand victorious. Your power lies not in avoiding setbacks, but in how you rise from them. "Be present. Be incredible.

You’ll face moments when the bitter outweighs the sweet, when the lemons piled in front of you seem endless and your lemonade is nowhere to be found. But your circumstances don’t define you. No matter how hard it hits, stand in victory. Don’t carry your mistakes like weights dragging you down. Stand on them. Let your failures be the stepping stones that elevate you, not the burdens you lug around. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Every misstep is an opportunity – a lesson carved from hard experience that builds your path forward. Own your story, scars and all. “One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.”  Progress isn’t about giant leaps, but steady movement. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, and you’ll break through barriers you once thought immovable. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stand in victory!   Be cautious about regret, as it can be a trap. It shackles your mind to past failures and stalls your future. Instead of sinking into "what ifs," commit to standing in victory. Rise when you fall. Every stumble sharpens your resilience—makes you tougher, smarter, more prepared for what’s next. Remember this: never regret. If it’s good, it's a blessing. If it’s bad, it's a lesson. Either way, you’re moving forward. So when life comes crashing with its chaos, when the easy path disappears and doubt creeps in, choose to stand tall. Stand loud. Stand victorious. Your power lies not in avoiding setbacks, but in how you rise from them. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But unfortunately, all that life offers us can lead us down "Distraction Boulevard." Is your schedule stealing your purpose? Purpose isn’t just a feel-good buzzword—it’s the fuel that drives the passion from within. When you wake up knowing why you do what you do, life suddenly feels worth living. But here’s the blunt truth: your schedule might be stealing your purpose right under your nose. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   We live in a world overflowing with distractions, must-dos, and must-haves. The constant ping of notifications, endless tasks, and meetings can trap you to the point where your calendar fills up faster than you can blink. Before you know it, you’re sprinting through your days like a hamster on a wheel, yet somehow missing the very things that give your life meaning. Life isn’t perfect—far from it. It throws curveballs that shift your path in unexpected directions, some good, some bad, some ugly. But no matter what chaos life tosses your way, losing your purpose isn’t mandatory. What does get stolen, though, is your time—your most valuable asset. Without time carved out for what truly matters, purpose falls by the wayside. Don't let your schedule steal your purpose; carve out intentional time. The K.I.S.S. ~ Carve out intentional time!   That intentional time is specific to your dreams, goals, and purpose. What you do with it is about who you are and who you are becoming.  So, what can you do? How do you take back control of your schedule instead of letting it dictate your life? 1. Get Relentlessly Honest About Your Calendar<br /> Look at your schedule with a keen eye. Audit without holding back or hesitating. What meetings, tasks, or habits are sucking your time with zero payoff? If it doesn’t align with your goals or values, cut it or minimize it. Saying no isn’t a weakness—it’s a protection measure against what matters in the season that you're in. That makes you strong! 2. Simplify Ruthlessly<br /> We confuse being busy with being productive—busyness is not going to get you to your purpose. Strip your to-do list down to essentials. Focus on the 20% that brings 80% of the impact. Eliminate or delegate the rest. 3. Create Margin for What Matters<br /> Purpose thrives in margin. Stop packing every minute. Block time for deep work, reflection, personal growth, or simply being present. This margin isn’t wasted; it’s invested in your well-being and purpose.  4. Guard Your Intentional Time Like a Fortress<br /> Treat the blocks you schedule for your purpose as untouchable. No distractions, no compromises. Guard your most meaningful work and rest like your life and heart depends on it—because it does. 5. Reassess and Adjust Regularly<br /> Purpose isn’t static, and neither should your schedule be. Life shifts. Your priorities shift. Set a weekly check-in with yourself to ensure your time investment matches your true north star, your why. Living on purpose means living intentionally. It means saying no to what steals your focus and yes to what fuels your soul. When your schedule respects your purpose, you don’t just survive—you thrive. You can break free from the overwhelm and reclaim a life where purpose leads the way—not your runaway to-do list. Stay strong. Schedule what matters. The world won’t crumble because you chose purpose over busyness. You’ll stand taller and build a strong foundation. Create your now! "Be present. Be incredible.

Emergencies, roadblocks, and sudden heartbreaks summon us to dial God like a divine 911. But what if I told you that God isn’t just an emergency contact? What if He’s not interested only in the blood and flood moments but wants in on your daily grind, your routine decisions, and your quiet hours? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Proverbs 4:11 hits us with this powerful promise: “I am guiding you in wisdom. And I am leading you to do what is right.” This isn’t a half-hearted, occasional check-in—it’s a full-time, intentional leading by God’s own wisdom, aiming at your good and what’s right for you. Truth bomb: It’s easy to outsource your direction to every guru, trend, or social media voice screaming for your attention. We get distracted trying to piece together our purpose from everyone but the One who authored our very lives. Yet God’s whisper is steady beneath the noise if you choose to listen. The Bible is clear that God is intimately involved in the daily path you walk: <ul> <li>Psalm 32:8 says, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.”</li> <li>Isaiah 30:21 reminds us, “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’”</li> <li>And Jesus himself taught in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well,” showing us that daily dependence on God’s guidance sets everything else in order.</li> </ul> It's not about what everyone else does, but what we do with God. The K.I.S.S. ~ God isn't just an emergency contact!   Are you tuning into God’s wisdom before launching into your day, or are you waiting until disruption forces your focus? When you invite God into the everyday—your work decisions, relationships, and even your quiet coffee moments—you gain a compass that cuts through confusion and guesswork. That’s why Proverbs 4:11 is not just a feel-good verse; it’s a call to stop treating God like a backup plan and start living with Him as your active Guide. You don’t need to figure it all out alone or panic when storms come. God’s wisdom isn’t just for emergencies—it’s the blueprint for right living, it's a lifestyle, and it’s available every single day. So next time you’re tempted to lean on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6 warns against this) or tune out God’s voice in the noise, remember: God’s got you. He’s leading you—not just to survive the chaos but to do what is right in the moments you might otherwise overlook. You don’t have to chase down every “how-to” out there because the ultimate Creator and Counselor is right there, ready to lead you step-by-step through the ordinary and the extraordinary. Tune in. Listen. Walk wisely. God's got you always! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Proverbs 4:11 hits us with this powerful promise: “I am guiding you in wisdom. And I am leading you to do what is right.” This isn’t a half-hearted, occasional check-in—it’s a full-time, intentional leading by God’s own wisdom, aiming at your good and what’s right for you. Truth bomb: It’s easy to outsource your direction to every guru, trend, or social media voice screaming for your attention. We get distracted trying to piece together our purpose from everyone but the One who authored our very lives. Yet God’s whisper is steady beneath the noise if you choose to listen. The Bible is clear that God is intimately involved in the daily path you walk: <ul> <li>Psalm 32:8 says, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.”</li> <li>Isaiah 30:21 reminds us, “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’”</li> <li>And Jesus himself taught in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well,” showing us that daily dependence on God’s guidance sets everything else in order.</li> </ul> It's not about what everyone else does, but what we do with God. The K.I.S.S. ~ God isn't just an emergency contact!   Are you tuning into God’s wisdom before launching into your day, or are you waiting until disruption forces your focus? When you invite God into the everyday—your work decisions, relationships, and even your quiet coffee moments—you gain a compass that cuts through confusion and guesswork. That’s why Proverbs 4:11 is not just a feel-good verse; it’s a call to stop treating God like a backup plan and start living with Him as your active Guide. You don’t need to figure it all out alone or panic when storms come. God’s wisdom isn’t just for emergencies—it’s the blueprint for right living, it's a lifestyle, and it’s available every single day. So next time you’re tempted to lean on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6 warns against this) or tune out God’s voice in the noise, remember: God’s got you. He’s leading you—not just to survive the chaos but to do what is right in the moments you might otherwise overlook. You don’t have to chase down every “how-to” out there because the ultimate Creator and Counselor is right there, ready to lead you step-by-step through the ordinary and the extraordinary. Tune in. Listen. Walk wisely. God's got you always! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

They don’t have to be explosive betrayals; sometimes they’re the small, unspoken truths or hidden feelings that quietly erode trust and closeness. Facing secrets before they break you can feel like walking into a storm. But the real question isn’t whether secrets exist—they always do—it’s how you handle them before they unravel everything you’ve built together. Recently, a headline-grabbing moment at a Coldplay concert sparked whispers across social media: a billionaire owner caught in a Kiss Cam moment revealing an affair. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   The private moment became a public spectacle, reminding us all that even the wealthiest and most powerful marriages harbor hidden struggles. But an affair is just one extreme example. In every marriage, secrets—or even small deceptions—can slowly chip away at the foundation. What do you do when you sense something is hidden in your marriage? When doubts gnaw at you but you don’t yet have proof? The truth is, every couple faces shadows—unspoken fears, frustrations, or mistakes. It isn’t the secret itself that destroys, but how we respond or react to it. Handling Secrets: It’s Not the End of the World First, hear this loud and clear: suspicion or discovery of hidden truths doesn’t have to mean the end. What does matter is what you do next. Your emotions might rage, your world might shatter, but your choices create the path forward—create your now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create the path forward!   Suppressing feelings or jumping to conclusions fuels toxicity. Fixating on blame without facts builds a wall that keeps you apart. Think of it like this—the way you handle your emotions alongside the facts shapes your marriage’s future. 3 Moves to Reveal and Heal What’s Hidden If you feel something’s off, you don’t have to wait in silence. Here are three intentional, practical moves you can take to uncover and address the hidden failures before they become deadly blows: 1. Choose Courage Over Avoidance—Start the Conversation<br /> Waiting won’t make secrets less painful. It only gives them space to fester and grow roots. Reach out with calm honesty. Share what you’re sensing without accusations—use “I feel” statements to avoid defensiveness. For example: “I’ve been feeling distant between us, and I want to understand what’s going on so we can face it together.” This opens a door rather than slamming it shut. 2. Focus on the Underlying Pain, Not Just the Secret<br /> Most secrets hide not just an action but a deeper wound—fear, loneliness, unmet needs, or shame. When your partner opens up, listen to the pain beneath the secret. Respond with empathy, not judgment. That breaks down barriers and encourages honest dialogue. "When it comes to secrets in a marriage, there is more to the story than the action itself!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Commit to Truth and Accountability—Together<br /> Secrets thrive in shadows, but they wither in daylight. Agree to a new pact of transparency and trust-building. Trust is earned. So, that might mean counseling, check-ins, or simply promising to be upfront about the feelings. Holding each other accountable creates space for healing, repair, and reconciliation. Hope Isn’t Naïve—it’s Strategy This isn’t about denying the hurt or pretending everything’s fine. It’s about claiming your power to respond wisely—to channel raw emotions into constructive action. Whether the secret is an affair or a quieter breach of trust, it’s possible to rebuild. It requires grit, humility, and above all, the refusal to give up. Remember: a marriage is not a perfect record of flawless days. It takes one to start and two messy, complicated human beings choosing to face their worst and best together to finish.  What’s hidden can be a threat—but it can also be the beginning of a stronger, more genuine connection if you meet it head-on. You have the strength to handle this. Begin by choosing honesty, listening with heart, and insisting on shared truth. Facing what’s hidden today can save your marriage tomorrow—that’s how you turn what’s hidden into what heals. "Be present. Be incredible.

For parents, helping children understand how to pay attention isn’t just about getting through homework or reading—it’s teaching a skill that shapes the way they experience the world, turn distractions into focus, and tackle the challenges of life ahead; how to fight for your child's focus. Think about reading. Maybe your child eagerly picks up a book, but after a few sentences protests, “I’m bored.” That moment isn’t just about the book itself—it’s about their mind wanting constant stimulation and having trouble sticking with slower, steady work. In today’s digital world, this problem is only getting worse. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Thanks in large part to rapid-fire screen time, kids—and adults too—expect things to move at lightning speed. But the human mind processes information more slowly than these quick scene changes. After just 10 seconds of static content, we’re ready to scroll or click again. Watch what your child consumes on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or movies. Notice how fast cuts and flashy effects come one after another. You might find yourself sucked in too, scanning rapidly from one reel to the next without stopping. This constant stimulus rewires young brains to crave more extreme, faster, louder input. The result? Their attention to what really matters—in school lessons, family conversations, or personal growth—dwindles. It’s no surprise they say, “I’m bored.” Their brains are conditioned to expect entertainment that does not require patience or mental effort to process. But attention isn’t a given; it’s a skill that needs practice and guidance beyond the screen. The K.I.S.S. ~ Provide practice and guidance beyond the screen!   Without it, children will struggle to engage deeply, understand complex concepts, or develop persistence. These are precisely the skills that create success in school, relationships, and life beyond the screen. So what can we do as parents? <ol> <li> Set clear, consistent limits on screen time—not just in quantity but in quality. Choose content with a slower pace or that encourages critical thinking, rather than passive consumption. </li> <li> Model focused attention for yourself. When your child sees you put your phone down, read, or fully engage in conversations, you’re showing them what paying attention looks like. </li> <li> Practice short attention-building exercises. Start with brief reading sessions or mindfulness moments and gradually increase the length as your child builds stamina. </li> <li> Encourage activities that require sustained focus, like playing an instrument, sports, or crafts. These provide natural challenges to attention without screens. </li> <li> Talk about what attention really means. Explain that paying attention is like exercising a muscle—hard at first, but it gets stronger over time. Connect it to their goals, like finishing a book or understanding a new skill. </li> </ol> Attention may not feel as flashy as the next viral video, but it’s the backbone of learning and self-control. By teaching kids to slow down, resist distractions, and stick with what matters, parents are helping them build brains wired for success—not just a quick dopamine hit. Today’s screen-driven world makes this more important than ever. It’s up to us as parents to protect and grow this fundamental skill, setting our children up, not just to cope, but to thrive in the classroom, community, family, and all of life. "Be present.

We’re told that natural ability is what sets winners apart—the ones who get ahead with ease while the rest just fall behind. But let’s be real: talent alone won’t get you to the top. The real reason some people rise when others quit is grit—the relentless, stubborn refusal to give up. Say yes to grit! Life doesn’t pause for your dreams. Bills demand attention.

But “healthy living” isn’t some vague, Pinterest-worthy dream. It’s a demanding, real-life commitment that requires clarity about what you want, where you’re headed, and how you’re going to get there. And that comes when you make the journey clear. Yet, here’s the kicker: life will throw curveballs. Work deadlines, family drama, unexpected setbacks—they all show up. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But that doesn’t mean your goals have to get buried. Your job is to make the journey clear, own the season you’re in, and push forward with purpose. The harsh truth? Without a clear path, a checklist, or a plan, you’ll spin your wheels. You might “start a diet,” “try a workout,” or “drink more water” without seeing progress because you don’t really know what exactly you want or how to bend your actions to your current reality. You stay stuck in what comes easy. You complain more than you take A.I.M. and let your season dictate your next steps. Of course, your season matters. But you have to connect it with your path. The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish your path!      Even though there is a time for everything, you need to be able to work in the season you are in and figure a way to work with it, not against it. So, how do you establish your path in a season where life is messy but your goals can still thrive? 1. Define What Healthy Living Means for You Today Forget broad, generic goals like “eat better” or “work out more.” Get specific and ruthless: <ul> <li>What does a healthy life look like right now?</li> <li>What habits can you realistically implement given your energy, time, and resources?</li> <li>What are non-negotiable actions you can commit to this week that actually move the needle?</li> </ul> Don’t borrow someone else’s definition of health. Maybe your “healthy” is walking 20 minutes 3x a week instead of running marathons. Maybe it’s prepping breakfast and cutting back on soda. Whatever it is, make it personal, clear, and actionable. 2. Map Your Road—Set Your Destination and Mini Milestones If you don’t know where you’re going, every step feels random. Set a clear distinction: What is the result you want? Less fatigue? Fit into a specific outfit? Lower blood pressure? Then, break it down into bite-sized milestones. <ul> <li>Month 1: Cut processed sugar by half</li> <li>Month 2: Add strength training twice a week</li> <li>Month 3: Improve sleep routine</li> </ul> Having this roadmap gives you a sense of direction and control, even when chaos hits. It’s fine-tuned for the season you’re in—not some pie-in-the-sky fantasy. 3. Choose Your “How” With Realism—and Build in Flexibility Doing healthy living “right” isn’t about rigid rules that fail as soon as life gets tough. How will you pursue your path so it fits your daily reality? <ul> <li>What workouts can you do in 20 minutes or less?</li> <li>Which meal preps align with your cooking skills and schedule?</li> <li>How will you track wins and course-correct without judgment?</li> </ul> Remember, your path is not a straight line. It bends with work, trips, family emergencies, and motivational dips. Flexibility isn’t a weakness—it’s a strategy.   Your Healthy Life Is Waiting—If You Make the Journey Clear You can absolutely have the healthy life you want. But clarity is your weapon. When you know what you want, where you’re headed, and how you’ll get there—all tailored to the season you’re living—your chances of progress skyrocket. Life will try to derail you. That’s a given. But no one else gets to map your path or own your journey. And the battles? They’re part of the process. The real win is refusing to wander aimlessly. Make your journey clear. Take the steps. Own your season. Your best healthy life isn’t a someday goal. Create your now!    "Be present. Be incredible.

Like it’s reserved for someone else with more time, more energy, or just better luck—but keep going when you can't see the finish line. Here’s the truth nobody tells you: Success does not come from a one-time, social media post-worthy event in your life. It comes from not quitting when the chips don't fall where you had hoped. It comes from doing and not complaining. It comes from spearheading your drive from within your heart, rather than getting all caught up in your head. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Real success is forged in the daily grind, in the choices you make when you don’t feel like pushing forward, when the world feels heavy, and your energy is running on empty. It’s about showing up anyway. It’s about doing when all your brain screams for you to quit. It’s about leading your own drive from deep inside your heart — that resilient, quiet voice that refuses to let you settle for less than what you’re capable of. The K.I.S.S. ~ But keep going!   You’ll have days when you want to give up. That’s normal. But here’s the deal: so long as you don’t quit on yourself, you’re still winning. Every step, no matter how small, gets you closer to the life you want, closer to your dream. Stop waiting for a perfect moment or a surge of motivation. Those are distractions. The only thing that moves the needle is consistency—grinding when it’s hard, ignoring the noise in your head, and committing to your own journey of greatness even when the chips fall where they may. Remember this one unstoppable fact: You can do what you set your mind to. Not because it’s easy, but because you refuse to let your story end where despair begins. So what if you keep going? Soon, you’ll get there. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Like it’s reserved for someone else with more time, more energy, or just better luck—but keep going when you can't see the finish line. Here’s the truth nobody tells you: Success does not come from a one-time, social media post-worthy event in your life. It comes from not quitting when the chips don't fall where you had hoped. It comes from doing and not complaining. It comes from spearheading your drive from within your heart, rather than getting all caught up in your head. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Real success is forged in the daily grind, in the choices you make when you don’t feel like pushing forward, when the world feels heavy, and your energy is running on empty. It’s about showing up anyway. It’s about doing when all your brain screams for you to quit. It’s about leading your own drive from deep inside your heart — that resilient, quiet voice that refuses to let you settle for less than what you’re capable of. The K.I.S.S. ~ But keep going!   You’ll have days when you want to give up. That’s normal. But here’s the deal: so long as you don’t quit on yourself, you’re still winning. Every step, no matter how small, gets you closer to the life you want, closer to your dream. Stop waiting for a perfect moment or a surge of motivation. Those are distractions. The only thing that moves the needle is consistency—grinding when it’s hard, ignoring the noise in your head, and committing to your own journey of greatness even when the chips fall where they may. Remember this one unstoppable fact: You can do what you set your mind to. Not because it’s easy, but because you refuse to let your story end where despair begins. So what if you keep going? Soon, you’ll get there. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Yet, balance in the traditional sense rarely shows up. But what if the problem isn’t balance itself, but control? What if you could organize yourself around what truly serves you—your goals, your dreams, your purpose? If so, the question is: What would be your first? Most people live caught up in the day-to-day grind so deeply that they lose sight of their destination. The dreams that once ignited their fire dim under deadlines, distractions, and doubt. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But make no mistake—if you are meant to do something, it can be done. The missing piece is not your ability; it’s your motivation backed by a strategic plan designed to take you where you want to go. Look at Jannik Sinner from Italy and Iga Światek from Poland. Both dreamed of holding the Wimbledon trophy. But dreaming alone didn’t get them there. It was endless hours of hard work, consistent effort, and patience paying off over time. This weekend, both claimed their place in history as their countries’ first Wimbledon champions. These wins weren’t handed to them—they earned them with grit and strategy. You don’t have to be a world-class athlete to apply the same principles. It’s time to live inside your dreams, as Jannik Sinner said, and commit to doing what it takes. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live inside your dreams!   But how? What does that look like in your life?  Start with these three action steps: 1. Map Out Your ‘Why’ and Your Path Be laser clear about what you want and why it matters. If your goal is vague, your motivation will wane when progress stalls. Write down your dream in specific detail, then break it into smaller, manageable milestones. For example, if you want to start your own business, your “why” can ground you and keep your mind focused on the reason you want to do it. "Without clarity, your efforts scatter like leaves in the wind." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Build Daily Habits Around Your Goal  Success isn’t an event; it’s the sum of your repeated actions. Identify three daily or weekly habits that directly push you toward your milestones. If becoming a published author is your aim, dedicate time every day to writing—even if only 300 words. Consistency beats intensity every time. Habits create momentum, and momentum crushes overwhelm. Track your progress each week and adjust if needed to keep moving forward. 3. Lean Into Discomfort and Learn Fast  Growth happens outside your comfort zone. Expect setbacks and mistakes—they’re the sign that you’re pushing boundaries. When faced with obstacles, ask yourself: What lesson is here? How can I pivot and improve? For example, if you launch a marketing campaign that falls flat, use the data to tweak your message or targeting—not to quit. Adopt a mindset of solving problems rather than avoiding them. This resilience separates dreamers from achievers. In the end, nothing you want in life is guaranteed. Everything worth having demands courage, commitment, and clarity. It’s your choice whether to keep drifting or to rise up and claim what you were created to do. So, what will be your first? Will it be writing that first page, cold-emailing your ideal client, sharing your story out loud, or simply deciding to show up every day with real intention? Your journey starts the moment you take that step. You’ve got everything you need to make this happen—now stop waiting and start moving.  Remember Sinner and Światek: the world, too, is ready for your first! "Be present. Be incredible.

It invites us to live with an eternal perspective that reshapes how we think, feel, and respond each day. If your mind is caught in the chaos of life’s battles, it’s time to redirect your thoughts and embrace the power of a mind fixed on what truly matters.

To set your affections on things above means placing your thoughts, emotions, and will firmly on God’s reality. It’s not about avoiding life on earth, but about seeing life through the lens of eternity, God's way. When your perspective is eternal, earthly troubles lose their grip, and your priorities shift toward what truly lasts. Here’s the hard truth: most battles believers fight happen inside the mind. When wrong motives, bitterness, evil intentions, or negative thought patterns infect your mind, they derail your focus and pull you off course. Left unchecked, these forces drive your thoughts into dangerous territory and keep you stuck in defeat or confusion. Yet, you are called to have a heavenly mind! The K.I.S.S. ~ A Heavenly mind!   That’s why renewing your mind daily with God’s Word is non-negotiable. Meditation is more than a quiet moment; it’s a spiritual workout. Hold tight to key scriptures. Remind yourself of God’s goodness. Speak the truth of Jesus’ blood over your memories, wounds, and spirit. This is how your mind thrives and grows strong. It's all about walking every day God's way! Take intentional moments today to pray over your mind. Every time a challenge comes at you, don’t just react. Instead, speak out over your situation with faith-based declarations—claim your victory before you see it. The mind that fixes itself on God’s promises operates from spiritual authority, not worry or fear. Finally, focus your attention on faithful intentions. Let your heart and mind align with what is true, noble, and right. When your mind is anchored in heaven, your life on earth gains clarity, strength, and peace that no circumstance can steal. You’ve got one mind—make it heavenly. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Left unchecked, these forces drive your thoughts into dangerous territory and keep you stuck in defeat or confusion. Yet, you are called to have a heavenly mind! The K.I.S.S. ~ A Heavenly mind!   That’s why renewing your mind daily with God’s Word is non-negotiable. Meditation is more than a quiet moment; it’s a spiritual workout. Hold tight to key scriptures. Remind yourself of God’s goodness. Speak the truth of Jesus’ blood over your memories, wounds, and spirit. This is how your mind thrives and grows strong. It's all about walking every day God's way! Take intentional moments today to pray over your mind. Every time a challenge comes at you, don’t just react. Instead, speak out over your situation with faith-based declarations—claim your victory before you see it. The mind that fixes itself on God’s promises operates from spiritual authority, not worry or fear. Finally, focus your attention on faithful intentions. Let your heart and mind align with what is true, noble, and right. When your mind is anchored in heaven, your life on earth gains clarity, strength, and peace that no circumstance can steal. You’ve got one mind—make it heavenly. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

That’s the unvarnished truth. But it can also be incredible—deep, rewarding, and wildly fulfilling. But here’s the catch: most couples don’t realize that the key to a strong marriage isn’t just in what you do, but how you do it. And that “how” has to come with the best of intentions. Too often, what drives interactions between partners isn’t goodwill but defense. It’s a silent scoreboard where each quietly aims to win or at least not lose.

But let me be clear—this mindset never wins in a marriage, no matter how “right” you think you are. Instead, it chips away at trust and love, leaving wounds too deep to heal quickly. So, how does one shift from the battlefield mentality to intentional, sincere partnership? It starts with using your words and actions with the best possible intentions.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Bring intention back into your marriage!   That doesn’t mean being naive or pretending everything is perfect. It means the following: <ul> <li>Choosing love over ego</li> <li>Connection over winning</li> <li>Growth over blame</li> </ul> Here are three things any partner can do to bring intention back into marriage: <ol> <li> Speak to Connect, Not to Correct<br /> We all want to be heard. But the instant we start framing our words as accusations or demands, the other partner goes on the defensive. Instead, lead conversations from a place of curiosity and care. Ask questions, listen more than you talk, and assume the best in your partner—even when it’s hard. Your goal isn’t to score a point; it’s to deepen understanding. </li> <li> Act with Awareness and Empathy<br /> Intentions show up in actions just as much as words. Before responding, reacting, or making decisions, pause. Ask yourself: What does my partner need right now? How can I make this moment better, not worse? Small gestures—offering help, holding space, saying “I see you”—can rewrite the story of your day and your relationship when done thoughtfully. But be careful not to do it out of spite. That's when the ego shows up! </li> <li> Choose Solutions Over Defensiveness<br /> When conflict arises, don’t let pride or the need to be “right” steer your actions. Instead, team up to find answers. Remember, you’re in this together, not opponents in a duel. Approach problems with “how can we fix this?” instead of “who caused this?” Shifting from blame to solutions builds resilience and trust. </li> </ol> Marriage is not automatic. It demands initiative and intention every single day. Without that, your relationship drifts into a bland routine, becoming a placeholder rather than a partnership worth fighting for. So ask yourself—if your marriage just exists without purpose, what’s the point of being married at all? Take AIM: Act with Intent, Intuition, and Mindfulness for your marriage. Make choices that serve the whole, not just yourself. Speak words that heal, act in ways that nurture, and handle conflicts with a desire to build—not break down.

There are many different approaches that the world encourages, ranging from letting the kids rule the roost to old-style harsh punishment. Regardless of where you fall on the spectrum, one size does not fit all. It takes a dash of this and a sprinkle of that to raise a well-balanced child. And that includes using the power of No. Think of it this way: If a child always gets what they want, where is the lesson? Saying No isn’t about control or punishment—it’s about teaching your child that the world doesn’t revolve around them, and life comes with limits and boundaries. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Without this, children risk growing up entitled or ill-prepared for the real world. One Size Does Not Fit All—Know Your Child Parenting is not a cookie-cutter effort. Each child has a unique personality and temperament. What works perfectly for one won’t necessarily work for another. As James Dobson wrote, “The heart of parenting is creating an environment where children learn to make good choices”—and sometimes that environment needs a clear No. If you stick rigidly to only one approach—whether it’s unyielding discipline or permissiveness—you risk pushing your child into rebellion or reliance on you for every decision. When children learn that they can override boundaries through persistence or manipulation, they begin to take control instead of you leading the way. Adaptability Is Your Secret Weapon "Parenting is a daily chess match. You must read the situation, the child’s mood, and the bigger picture. Complacency is your enemy. An effective parent is intentional, strategic, and consistent in setting limits while showing love." ~ Kristianne Wargo The power of No doesn’t mean you say No to every whim. It means you are deliberate—sometimes gentle, sometimes firm—always clear about expectations and consequences, good or bad. "Boundaries, after all, aren’t walls; they are guardrails that help your child navigate safely and confidently through life." ~ Kristianne Wargo Don't be afraid to use No as a parenting tool. The K.I.S.S. ~ Use No!   3 Things to Keep in Mind When Using the Power of No <ol> <li> Make Your No Clear, Calm, and Consistent<br /> Children need predictability. If you say No one day and Yes the next on the same issue, they will test limits endlessly. As Dr. Dobson emphasizes, consistency is the key to effective parenting. Your calm but firm No sets the expectation and builds trust—your child knows where they stand. </li> <li> Explain the Why Behind the No<br /> Children aren’t mind readers. Simply saying “No” without context breeds confusion or frustration. Take a moment to explain the reason behind the boundary in simple terms. For example: “No, you can’t have candy now because it’s almost dinner time, and we want you to be hungry for healthy food.” This teaches decision-making and patience. Yet, there are times when No is enough! So, don't back down when 'No' needs to be just 'No'! </li> <li> Balance No with Empathy and Alternatives<br /> Saying No doesn’t mean shutting your child down. Acknowledge their feelings—“I know you really want that toy”—and then offer a choice or an alternative—“Maybe we can save for it and get it next month, or pick a smaller toy today.” This respects the child’s emotions while maintaining your authority. </li> </ol> Boundaries Protect and Prepare The power of No is not about being the “bad guy.” It’s about setting boundaries that protect your child physically and emotionally. Boundaries build character—helping them learn limits, responsibility, and respect for others. Children who grow up without clear limits may struggle with impulse control or entitlement later in life. In the words of parenting expert James Dobson, “Children need to be firmly and fairly guided toward self-control.” The power of No, wielded wisely, plants the seeds for that self-control, well beyond childhood.  Final Thought Your job as a parent is to stay adaptable, intentional, and clear. Say No when it counts. Teach your child that life isn’t about getting everything they want but learning how to navigate challenges with resilience and respect. You’re not just raising a child—you’re raising an adult. No boundaries? You risk raising a child unprepared to face the real world. "The power of No is a tool—not to break your child’s spirit—but to build their strength." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present.

If you want to create something meaningful, you have to embrace the struggle—not run from it. It’s messy, uncomfortable, and relentless, but it’s also where growth happens and breakthroughs are born. The question isn’t if you’ll face challenges; it’s how you choose to meet them. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Here’s the hard-knock truth: Struggling is not a sign you’re off track. It’s proof you’re on the frontlines of growth. Most people give up when the going gets tough—because struggle is uncomfortable. And it is. But successful people don’t avoid struggle.

If you want to create something meaningful, you have to embrace the struggle—not run from it. It’s messy, uncomfortable, and relentless, but it’s also where growth happens and breakthroughs are born.

Meetings pile up. Projects demand more. Family, friends, and deadlines pull at every minute. Meanwhile, your well-being gets pushed to the back burner. If you’re eyeing the clock as it ticks toward the last six months of the year, why not make it your fresh start? Not next January, not when you “have time,” but right now. Because here’s the truth: your health is your real wealth. Without it, everything else falls apart. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But fresh starts aren’t bound to January 1st. They’re tied to clear moments that split your life into “before” and “after.” That moment can be anything: the first day of the week, the kickoff of a new project, or even a sunny Monday morning. You don’t need to wait for the calendar to hand you that moment—you can create your now. And here’s how: Engineer Your Healthy Reset. The K.I.S.S. ~ Engineer your healthy reset!   You don’t need a dramatic overhaul or grand gestures. The most powerful fresh starts come from simple, deliberate shifts that signal to your brain: It’s time for change. Create your now. <ol> <li> Pick a clear marker: Maybe it’s Monday morning, or the day you finish reading this. Mark it in your calendar or journal. This is the first decision. </li> <li> Start small but meaningful: Clean out your kitchen junk drawer, prep meals for a few days, or set a specific, doable goal like “I will drink 8 glasses of water every day this week.” It's not about the big stuff; it's the little stuff repeated. </li> <li> Create a ritual: Light a candle before your workout, put on a favorite song as you prepare your healthy snacks, or write a quick note to yourself about why health matters. Do something that keeps your why alive. </li> <li> Reset your environment: Rearrange your workout space or stock your fridge with fresh whole foods to reinforce the change. Dump all the processed crap and give yourself permission to feel good! </li> </ol> The Power Is in the Repeat Fresh starts aren’t a one-off thing—you can engineer these moments again and again. Reset weekly, monthly, or whenever life’s been too much and your health took a hit. The key is to mark new beginnings that pull you forward, rather than letting momentum slip away. Your Health, Your Future Remember, health isn’t something you “figure out” someday — it’s the foundation under everything you want to do and be. Without it, even the best plans falter. So right now, as you step into a new half-year ahead, consider this your personal springboard. A chance to finally stop letting the chaos win and take control of your well-being. No excuses, no delay. Your fresh start isn’t waiting for the perfect moment. It’s waiting for your move. Make that first step count. Create your now! "Be present. Be incredible.

Life is brutally complicated. Every day throws curveballs—distractions, setbacks, doubts, and noise designed to throw you off course. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But here’s the real deal: complexity is inevitable, but chaos isn’t. You don’t have to let the swirl of life’s complications dismantle your forward motion. The secret weapon? Staying in rhythm. What does that mean, exactly? It means showing up consistently, doing the work that feeds your purpose, and not letting what doesn’t work pull you into frustration or give you excuses to quit. Rhythm is the steady beat beneath the chaos—a pulse you set, unshaken by external noise. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay in rhythm!   You were created for more than surviving the chaos. You were created to move forward, to build, create, and serve in your unique way. But if you stop moving—if you lose your rhythm because something got hard or because results aren’t immediate—you hand your power to the very obstacles you should be overcoming. Staying in rhythm isn’t about perfection. It’s about persistence. It’s about finding the groove where your actions and intentions line up and repeating that again and again, no matter how small the progress feels. It’s in this steady cadence that momentum grows, clarity sharpens, and results start to stack. So don’t let the things that don’t work define your story. Identify what moves the needle for you—your unique method, your signature actions—and recommit to those. Cut out the noise. Align daily steps to your purpose, then keep the beat going. Remember: epic success is won in seasons of repetition, not bursts of sporadic effort. When you stay in rhythm, you don’t just survive—you thrive. You are built to do this. Now the question is—will you keep the rhythm going? Stay in rhythm. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Life is brutally complicated. Every day throws curveballs—distractions, setbacks, doubts, and noise designed to throw you off course. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But here’s the real deal: complexity is inevitable, but chaos isn’t. You don’t have to let the swirl of life’s complications dismantle your forward motion. The secret weapon? Staying in rhythm. What does that mean, exactly? It means showing up consistently, doing the work that feeds your purpose, and not letting what doesn’t work pull you into frustration or give you excuses to quit. Rhythm is the steady beat beneath the chaos—a pulse you set, unshaken by external noise. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay in rhythm!   You were created for more than surviving the chaos. You were created to move forward, to build, create, and serve in your unique way. But if you stop moving—if you lose your rhythm because something got hard or because results aren’t immediate—you hand your power to the very obstacles you should be overcoming. Staying in rhythm isn’t about perfection. It’s about persistence. It’s about finding the groove where your actions and intentions line up and repeating that again and again, no matter how small the progress feels. It’s in this steady cadence that momentum grows, clarity sharpens, and results start to stack. So don’t let the things that don’t work define your story. Identify what moves the needle for you—your unique method, your signature actions—and recommit to those. Cut out the noise. Align daily steps to your purpose, then keep the beat going. Remember: epic success is won in seasons of repetition, not bursts of sporadic effort. When you stay in rhythm, you don’t just survive—you thrive. You are built to do this. Now the question is—will you keep the rhythm going? Stay in rhythm. "Be present. Be incredible.

However, we are told to “give no foothold to the devil” (Ephesians 4:27, NIV), urging us, as believers, to stand firm and resist compromise. But what does that mean in practical, daily living? How do we stay rooted in God’s will when the world pulls us in every other direction? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   The Battle for Our Hearts is Real Ephesians 4:25-28 sets a powerful foundation:  “So each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body.<br /> ‘In your anger do not sin’: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry,<br /> and do not give the devil a foothold.<br /> Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need.”  This passage is not just about avoiding obvious sin—it’s about actively closing the doors through which the enemy can enter. Anger unresolved, lies told, laziness, or selfishness create cracks in our spiritual armor, footholds for discouragement, temptation, and division. What Does “Give No Foothold” Look Like Every Day? <ol> <li> Guard your heart and mind. Proverbs 4:23 reminds us: “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” The world constantly feeds us messages that encourage bitterness, anxiety, envy, and distraction. These are the “footholds” that let fear and doubt into your life. Regular prayer, scripture meditation, and fellowship keep your soul fortified. </li> <li> Be persistent in listening to God. God’s voice may not always be loud or immediate, but it’s steady and sure. Jesus says in John 10:27, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” Open your heart daily to God’s guidance, whether through His Word, prayer, or the gentle nudging of the Holy Spirit. </li> <li> Act boldly in your faith. The world thrives on us playing it safe or conforming. But Scripture calls us to be courageous. Joshua 1:9 commands, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Boldness flips the script, showing the world a faith unshaken by circumstance. </li> <li> Walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7 hits the core truth: “For we live by faith, not by sight.” When life feels unpredictable and your next steps unclear, trust the unseen hand of God. Faith is the daily engine that resists the world’s pull and moves forward in obedience. </li> </ol> The K.I.S.S. ~ Give no foothold!   When You Stop Giving Foothold, You Gain Freedom The enemy longs for just a tiny crack—an unresolved grudge, a moment of doubt, a “little” compromise—to start an invasion in your heart. But when you refuse to yield that small foothold, you stop the destructive cycle and reclaim ground in your spirit. Living this way means you’re not at the mercy of the world’s standards or pressures. Instead, you’re anchored in a relationship with the God who directs your steps: <ul> <li>You replace bitterness with truth and love.</li> <li>You swap anger for grace and closure.</li> <li>You choose action over apathy.</li> <li>You stand on the rock of God’s promises when waves rise high.</li> </ul> Your Next Step: Give No Foothold Ask yourself: Where am I tempted to give the enemy an entry point? What worldly standard am I letting dictate my decisions? Where do I need a stronger connection with God’s voice? The answer is not to retreat in fear but to step forward with boldness and persistence in faith. Your God is faithful and mighty. He has led you this far and will not abandon you now. Remember: “Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.” — Ephesians 6:13  Stand firm. Create your now. Let each day be a choice to give no foothold—only wholehearted trust and obedience to where God is leading. "Be present. Be incredible.

What worldly standard am I letting dictate my decisions? Where do I need a stronger connection with God’s voice? The answer is not to retreat in fear but to step forward with boldness and persistence in faith.

Yet, you don’t want the same old date nights or “try harder” pep talks. You want real. Something that changes the way you move through life together, drawing closer when you least expect it.  So, what do you think it is? Honestly, it's not something you can buy at a store or order online that comes in a sneaky, unnamed box. It's not about more counseling or coaching. It's not about scheduling time together, even though that's important. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Prayer with your spouse is not about ticking off a spiritual checklist or repeating empty phrases. It’s soul-level talk — unfiltered, raw, and honest — that brings your deepest desires, fears, and hopes into the light. It’s the kind of connection that cuts through the noise and the daily grind. When I think about fireworks for your marriage, you cannot leave out praying together. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pray together!   When you pray together, something powerful shifts: <ul> <li> Your desires come to the surface. What you really want—not just the surface stuff—starts to take shape. And suddenly, those desires aren’t just yours anymore; they’re shared. </li> <li> You become instant allies. Instead of feeling like two separate puzzle pieces struggling to fit, you're moving in the same direction. Your hearts line up. </li> <li> Unexpected gratitude emerges. You’ll find yourself recognizing blessings and strengths in each other you’d missed in the chaos. </li> </ul> This isn’t about praying for a miracle (though those happen, too). It’s about creating space for honest emotional intimacy that no couples’ therapy or date night can manufacture overnight. Imagine this: just five minutes a day, eyes closed or held tightly, asking God together to guide your hearts. <ul> <li>What could happen to your marriage if you made that a non-negotiable?</li> <li>Would the distance between you begin to shrink?</li> <li>Would the walls come down, and vulnerability flood in?</li> </ul> If your marriage feels stuck, lukewarm, or even disconnected, praying together may be the ignition switch you didn’t know was waiting under the hood. It’s bold. It’s simple. And it works because  it’s beyond you—it invites God, who is outside your arguments, schedules, and distractions, to pull you closer. So here’s your challenge: stop trying harder. Start praying together. Watch as your connection deepens when you least expect it—and how it changes everything. "Be present. Be incredible.

It’s a powerful reminder of the freedom we enjoy—a freedom hard-won and fiercely protected. But what does freedom truly mean if not the ability to gather with the ones we love—the Heart of Independence? In the chaos and rush of daily life, freedom reveals its greatest value when we spend it alongside family. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Family is our first community, our support system, our shelter in storms, and the source of our deepest joy. Celebrating Independence Day as a family is powerful because it connects us not just to a nation’s ideals, but to each other—strengthening bonds that fuel resilience and happiness. The Heart of Independence is family, freedom, and fierce connection. So, on this Independence Day, celebrate freedom together! The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate freedom together!   Three Ways Families Can Celebrate Freedom Together Find ways to connect on a more intimate level. When you let freedom ring, you let love shine. Here are three meaningful ways your family can embrace the greatest gift of freedom—being together—and make this 4th of July unforgettable. 1. Create New Traditions That Reflect Your Unique Story<br /> Freedom means choosing how you live and who you become. Every family has its own culture, quirks, and ways of connecting. Whether it’s a special recipe passed down for your holiday feast, a backyard picnic under the stars, or storytelling about your ancestors’ journeys, crafting your own traditions builds lasting memories and a sense of belonging. This is your time to own what family means to you. 2. Disconnect to Reconnect<br /> In a world buzzing with screens and distractions, true freedom lies in undistracted presence. Switch off phones, gadgets, and social media for a few hours. Play board games, tell stories, or watch the fireworks together. This focused attention is a radical gift—one that says: You matter. Your story matters. When families unplug, they tune in to what really counts: each other. 3. Serve Together<br /> Freedom is also responsibility—the responsibility to give back and protect what we love. Volunteer as a family at a local charity, clean up a park, or participate in community events. Acts of service remind us that freedom is collective, not just individual. Teaching children the value of contributing to something bigger tightens family bonds while inspiring a shared purpose rooted in gratitude and care. The True Fireworks Are Found in Togetherness Celebrate this Independence Day by recognizing that the freedom to be a family, to support and love one another, is the deepest liberty of all. Fireworks light up the sky, but it’s the light in your family’s eyes—the laughter, the hugs, the shared stories—that truly ignites the spirit of freedom. This July 4th, don’t just mark a holiday. Mark a moment. Build your family's living legacy of freedom through connection, presence, and service. Because there is no greater celebration than being free to love and be loved just as you are. Fireworks of the Heart by Kristianne Wargo Freedom is a spark—<br /> not just flags that wave or songs we sing,<br /> but the quiet pulse at day’s end,<br /> when hands find hands, and voices blend. It’s laughter spilling into night,<br /> around the fire’s glow, eyes bright,<br /> where stories weave through whispered air,<br /> and every soul knows someone cares. Independence isn’t just a date,<br /> it’s choosing love beyond the gate.<br /> It’s fierce connection, wild and true,<br /> a bond that breaks through fear’s dark blue. Family—our first fireworks display,<br /> exploding colors, bright array,<br /> each burst a moment we belong,<br /> a heart that beats, stubborn and strong. So here’s to freedom’s truest flame:<br /> the ties that bind, no one can tame.<br /> In every hug, in every cheer,<br /> the greatest fireworks light us here. "Be present. Be incredible.

It’s about the journey—the everyday, the small wins, the relentless forward motion that shapes who you are and the impact you leave behind. You weren’t created to coast or play small. You were made for more. More influence. More growth. More real change in the world you touch. Just one more step. That's all it takes. Success doesn’t come from leaping miles in one bound. It comes from hanging in there, putting one foot in front of the other—just one more step. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Stop Overwhelming Your Mind When your to-do list feels like a mountain, when your goals look like distant stars, it’s easy to freeze. The finish line feels miles away. The pressure builds. Your mind spins into overdrive, and suddenly nothing moves at all. Obsessing over how far you have to go is a fast track to burnout. The finish line isn’t your enemy—it’s just not the priority right now. You are right around the corner from progress. One step ahead is closer than you think. Instead of trying to leap that gap in one giant jump, narrow your focus to what’s right in front of you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Just one more step!   One Step Is All It Takes Don’t overthink it. Don’t spiral into perfectionism or overwhelm. Just move. One small, intentional action at a time. Maybe it’s sending that one email. Making that phone call. Writing that paragraph. Cleaning that corner. One step lays the foundation for the next, and the next after that. Where you are right now is not your forever—unless you let your head convince you otherwise. The moment you take that next step, you chip away at the doubt. You break free from the stuck place. You prove to yourself you can move forward, even if it’s just a little. You Are Built for More Every epic success story you admire isn’t the product of one grand moment. It’s the sum of thousands of small steps taken consistently in the same direction. The person who “made it” didn’t wait for some perfect moment—they made the moment by refusing to quit. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about persistence. About showing up. About the belief that your dream, your vision, your purpose is worth fighting for. So hang in there. When your mind screams, “I can’t,” shout back, “Just one more step.” When you're exhausted, remember why you started. When doubt creeps in, choose action over analysis. Your Next Move Is Here Don’t get paralyzed by what’s left. Don’t drown in the big picture. You don’t have to conquer it all at once. You don't even have to have all the answers right now! You only need to do what’s right in front of you, right now. That’s it. One step. Then the next. Then another. Keep moving forward—because your impact is waiting just beyond that next step.

It’s about the journey—the everyday, the small wins, the relentless forward motion that shapes who you are and the impact you leave behind. You weren’t created to coast or play small. You were made for more. More influence. More growth. More real change in the world you touch. Just one more step. That's all it takes. Success doesn’t come from leaping miles in one bound. It comes from hanging in there, putting one foot in front of the other—just one more step. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Stop Overwhelming Your Mind When your to-do list feels like a mountain, when your goals look like distant stars, it’s easy to freeze. The finish line feels miles away. The pressure builds. Your mind spins into overdrive, and suddenly nothing moves at all. Obsessing over how far you have to go is a fast track to burnout. The finish line isn’t your enemy—it’s just not the priority right now. You are right around the corner from progress. One step ahead is closer than you think. Instead of trying to leap that gap in one giant jump, narrow your focus to what’s right in front of you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Just one more step!   One Step Is All It Takes Don’t overthink it. Don’t spiral into perfectionism or overwhelm. Just move. One small, intentional action at a time. Maybe it’s sending that one email. Making that phone call. Writing that paragraph. Cleaning that corner. One step lays the foundation for the next, and the next after that. Where you are right now is not your forever—unless you let your head convince you otherwise. The moment you take that next step, you chip away at the doubt. You break free from the stuck place. You prove to yourself you can move forward, even if it’s just a little. You Are Built for More Every epic success story you admire isn’t the product of one grand moment. It’s the sum of thousands of small steps taken consistently in the same direction. The person who “made it” didn’t wait for some perfect moment—they made the moment by refusing to quit. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about persistence. About showing up. About the belief that your dream, your vision, your purpose is worth fighting for. So hang in there. When your mind screams, “I can’t,” shout back, “Just one more step.” When you're exhausted, remember why you started. When doubt creeps in, choose action over analysis. Your Next Move Is Here Don’t get paralyzed by what’s left. Don’t drown in the big picture. You don’t have to conquer it all at once. You don't even have to have all the answers right now! You only need to do what’s right in front of you, right now. That’s it. One step. Then the next. Then another. Keep moving forward—because your impact is waiting just beyond that next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  "Be present. Be incredible.

We stumble over failures and focus on what we can't have, only to find ourselves in a messy pile of what didn't work. You find what you look for; so—search for the joy! Healthy living is not a punishment. But why do we make it just that? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Far too often, we approach wellness like it’s a punishment for past mistakes or some awful chore to endure. But healthy living is not about deprivation or martyrdom. It’s a vibrant way of life designed to sustain your well-being, so you can be who you were created to be — energized, clear, and ready to impact the world you touch. When joy leads your choices, healthy habits become gifts, not grudges. The Cost of Choosing Well Make no mistake: living well does come with a cost. It demands commitment, awareness, and sometimes surrendering instant gratification for long-term gain. But what if the cost was balanced by joy — the fuel that propels you forward instead of weighing you down? You don’t have to endure health like a grind. You get to search for the joy in your decisions. The K.I.S.S. ~ Search for the joy!   That sounds like so much more fun than the drudgery of losing weight or striving to stay on a "diet". Here are three ways to search for the joy: 1. Celebrate Small Wins as Joyful Victories Stop waiting for a dramatic transformation to feel good about your progress. Every healthy meal choice, every extra five minutes of movement, every moment of mindfulness is a win. Celebrate them. Give yourself a mental high-five. "Joy grows when you appreciate the small steps — not just the finish line." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Make Movement a Playdate, Not Punishment Exercise doesn’t have to be torture. Find a way to move that lights you up — dancing, hiking, biking, swimming, or even playing with your kids or pets. When movement is playful and joyful, it’s sustainable. It becomes a celebration of what your body can do, not a punishment for what it can’t. 3. Infuse Your Plate with Colors You Love Healthy eating isn’t about bland salads or boring meals. It’s about nourishing your body with flavors and colors that excite your senses. Experiment with fresh herbs, vibrant veggies, and spices that spark joy. Eat for the season. Cooking can be creative, fun, and an act of self-love — not a daily chore. Life Is a Search for Joy Your life doesn’t have to be about drudgery or sacrifice. You can carve out a beautiful existence full of health, happiness, and impact. But it starts with a choice and a mindset shift: Stop hunting for what’s wrong, tough, or impossible.<br /> Start searching for the joy in what’s possible, good, and nourishing. You get to create a health journey that feels like a gift every step of the way. The joy you seek is already there — waiting for you to notice. "Be present. Be incredible.

You’re grinding. You’re carrying the weight of the world, your family, your community, and your dreams all at once. Some days, it feels like you’re running on empty—and honestly, the last thing on your mind is to honor your beauty. I get it. When exhaustion hits, when the endless to-dos and pressures pull at every ounce of your energy, self-care often feels like a luxury you can’t afford—not a priority, not a mindset, not even a thought. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But let me be real with you: Your beauty is your power. And when you ignore that, when you let it slide beneath layers of exhaustion and “just keep going,” you don’t just lose confidence—you lose the fuel that lights your fire, the aspect of yourself that makes everything else possible.  You Are So Much More Than Your To-Do List You are not just a checklist survivor or a role filler. You are a radiant force. Beautiful in your scars, in your sweat, in your relentless commitment to rise. When you honor your beauty, you’re doing more than admiring your reflection. You are telling yourself: <ul> <li>I matter.</li> <li>I am whole.</li> <li>I am worthy—exactly as I am.</li> <li>I have something incredible to offer the world.</li> </ul> This is not fluff. It’s the foundation of showing up like a boss in your life and business every day.   Exhausted? Good. That Means You’re Alive—and Beautifully Human. Being worn doesn’t make you less. It makes you real. Amid burning deadlines, midnight worries, and endless roles, your beauty is that steady heartbeat beneath it all. It’s in: <ul> <li>The kindness you give your family when you’d rather shut down.</li> <li>The sweat on your brow when you push through doubt.</li> <li>The quiet courage it takes to dream big when the noise says "give up."</li> </ul> Honoring your beauty means carving out a moment—just a moment—to say, “I see you. I appreciate you,” to the tired warrior in the mirror. The K.I.S.S. ~ Honor your beauty!   Confidence Starts With Recognition You don’t need to wait for a perfect hair day, a fancy outfit, or a vacation to feel beautiful. Confidence is an inside job. It starts with seeing your beauty exactly where you are: raw, authentic, imperfect, and unstoppable. When you honor your beauty, you don’t just lift your spirits—you empower your decisions, boost your creativity, and invite success to meet you where you stand.  Your Next Move Today, no matter how worn or overwhelmed you feel, stop and honor your beauty: <ul> <li>Take a deep breath and look in the mirror. Speak words of truth to yourself: “I am beautiful. I am enough.”</li> <li>Celebrate the wins—big or small—that got you here today.</li> <li>Set a non-negotiable boundary that protects your energy and your confidence.</li> <li>Remember: your beauty isn’t just something you wear. It’s what you give.</li> </ul>  Bottom Line: You are a walking, breathing masterpiece—crafted not by ease, but by endurance. By honoring your beauty, you recharge your soul and step into your day with the confidence to make your mark. Ignore this at your own risk: your power, your impact, your dreams need you—whole, honored, and undeniably beautiful. "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But let me be real with you: Your beauty is your power. And when you ignore that, when you let it slide beneath layers of exhaustion and “just keep going,” you don’t just lose confidence—you lose the fuel that lights your fire, the aspect of yourself that makes everything else possible.  You Are So Much More Than Your To-Do List You are not just a checklist survivor or a role filler. You are a radiant force. Beautiful in your scars, in your sweat, in your relentless commitment to rise. When you honor your beauty, you’re doing more than admiring your reflection. You are telling yourself: <ul> <li>I matter.</li> <li>I am whole.</li> <li>I am worthy—exactly as I am.</li> <li>I have something incredible to offer the world.</li> </ul> This is not fluff. It’s the foundation of showing up like a boss in your life and business every day.   Exhausted? Good. That Means You’re Alive—and Beautifully Human. Being worn doesn’t make you less. It makes you real. Amid burning deadlines, midnight worries, and endless roles, your beauty is that steady heartbeat beneath it all. It’s in: <ul> <li>The kindness you give your family when you’d rather shut down.</li> <li>The sweat on your brow when you push through doubt.</li> <li>The quiet courage it takes to dream big when the noise says "give up."</li> </ul> Honoring your beauty means carving out a moment—just a moment—to say, “I see you. I appreciate you,” to the tired warrior in the mirror. The K.I.S.S. ~ Honor your beauty!   Confidence Starts With Recognition You don’t need to wait for a perfect hair day, a fancy outfit, or a vacation to feel beautiful. Confidence is an inside job. It starts with seeing your beauty exactly where you are: raw, authentic, imperfect, and unstoppable. When you honor your beauty, you don’t just lift your spirits—you empower your decisions, boost your creativity, and invite success to meet you where you stand.  Your Next Move Today, no matter how worn or overwhelmed you feel, stop and honor your beauty: <ul> <li>Take a deep breath and look in the mirror. Speak words of truth to yourself: “I am beautiful. I am enough.”</li> <li>Celebrate the wins—big or small—that got you here today.</li> <li>Set a non-negotiable boundary that protects your energy and your confidence.</li> <li>Remember: your beauty isn’t just something you wear. It’s what you give.</li> </ul>  Bottom Line: You are a walking, breathing masterpiece—crafted not by ease, but by endurance. By honoring your beauty, you recharge your soul and step into your day with the confidence to make your mark. Ignore this at your own risk: your power, your impact, your dreams need you—whole, honored, and undeniably beautiful. "Be present. Be incredible.

Every ambitious person faces it, but most let it derail their path to success. Here’s the brutal truth: if you don’t learn how to turn doubt into your secret weapon, it will keep robbing you of your potential. Doubt creeps in—subtle, sneaky, and relentless. Every ambitious person faces it. The crushing question: “Am I really cut out for this?” It shows up when the stakes rise, when your goals feel just out of reach, or when you stare at a blank page wondering if you have what it takes.

But here’s the truth: doubt doesn’t have to be your enemy. It can become your secret weapon. Turning The Tables on Doubt The difference between those who quit and those who win isn’t a lack of doubt. It’s how they handle it. Most people treat doubt like a warning siren meant to stop them. What if you flipped the script? What if doubt is actually data? A signal that points to what you need to learn, refine, or address—not a verdict on your worth or ability. How would that elevate your direction? Because that is the key. If you run into a dead end, you have to find a detour. So, why not create one? Create your detour from doubt! The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your detour from doubt!   Now, you've got your engines running. You can look beyond what was holding you back. No more using doubts as your excuse to not move forward or take that next step. Be bold and create your now! The detour is yours to take! Here are 3 game-changing ways to reframe doubt as your ally:  1. Separate Feelings from Facts: Treat Doubt Like Data, Not Drama Your brain is wired to trigger emotional alarms when uncertain, stretched, or stressed. That nervous pit in your stomach? That racing mind telling you you’re not ready? That’s called fear, not fact. Identify: “What do I know for sure?” versus “What am I imagining?” Example: You doubt your sales skills. Instead of surrendering to panic, list the actual data points. How many calls have you made? How many positive responses? Where exactly did the breakdown happen? This turns vague anxiety into concrete feedback. Remember: Feelings lie. Facts don’t.  2. Use Doubt as a Compass, Not a Cage Doubt signals where you’re pushing boundaries. It lights up the edges of your comfort zone—the exact place where growth lives. Instead of trying to erase doubt, ask: “What is this doubt telling me I need to learn or improve?” Build a habit of reflection: <ul> <li>Write down your doubts.</li> <li>Identify what information or skills would minimize uncertainty.</li> <li>Create micro-goals that chip away at the unknown.</li> </ul> This mindset keeps doubt as a motivating compass, pointing you toward the next smart action instead of freezing you in place.  3. Re-anchor Motivation in Purpose, Not Perfection Doubt thrives when you tether your value to results or flawless execution. Instead, anchor yourself in why you started. Your purpose is the fuel that powers you through the fog of doubt. When doubt whispers “You can’t,” reply: “I will because this matters more than fear.” Repeat this like a mantra when hesitation creeps in. Keeping your eyes on the transformation you want to create—for yourself and others—keeps doubt from paralyzing. It becomes background noise to the louder call of your mission.  The Bottom Line: Use Doubt to Drive You Forward Your doubts aren’t roadblocks—they’re signposts. They highlight what’s unknown, what you need to master, and how deeply you care. By learning to separate emotion from evidence, using doubt as a compass, and fueling yourself with purpose, you transform doubt from a deterrent into a weapon of progress. Don’t let doubt slow down your dreams. Keep what you don’t know right in front of you—use it to conquer what you were created to do.  You’ve got clarity. Let your doubt sharpen your edge, not dull your will. Create your now! "Be present. Be incredible.

They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” ~ Jeremiah 17:7-8 When life seems like it's unraveling, trusting God changes everything. Sometimes life looks like a tangled knot—so twisted and confusing you can’t tell front from back. You’re walking through a season where everything feels upside down: plans fall apart, circumstances feel out of control, and fear tries to sneak in.

They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”<br /> — Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NIV)  Trust Means Walking by Faith, Not by Sight Paul’s reminder in 2 Corinthians 5:7 couldn’t be clearer:<br /> “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” When the path ahead looks blurry, and your natural instincts scream “run” or “give up,” walking by faith means you choose to believe the unseen promises of God over your confusing circumstances. It’s choosing to say, “God, I don’t have the answers today, but I do know You are good. I do know You are faithful.” That kind of faith anchors your soul like a tree by the water, refusing to be swayed by drought, storm, or scorching heat. God Is Unchanging, Steady, and Faithful The world shifts—the job changes, relationships strain, health falters—but God remains the same:<br /> “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8) Your Father’s character is your firm foundation. When your surroundings feel like quicksand, His faithfulness is the solid ground beneath your feet. The psalmist confidently declares:<br /> “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)<br /> Even when you don’t see the way forward clearly, He is leading you gently and purposefully. The K.I.S.S. ~ The one who trusts in the Lord!   What Happens When You Trust God? <ul> <li>Your roots grow deeper. Like the tree Jeremiah talks about, your foundation grows strong by drawing life-sustaining nourishment from God’s presence (John 15:5).</li> <li>You bear fruit even in drought. Your faith produces peace, joy, and strength that defy circumstances (Galatians 5:22-23).</li> <li>Fear loses its grip. Trust in God pushes back anxiety because you know He’s in control (Isaiah 41:10).</li> <li>You live with hope and endurance. You keep moving forward, confident that God is working all things for your good (Romans 8:28).</li> </ul> Your Next Move: Trust, Take One Step, Repeat Faith isn’t a one-time leap; it’s a daily decision. Start your day declaring:<br /> “I trust You, God, even when I can’t see the full picture.” Lean into prayer, Scripture, and the community of believers. Surround yourself with reminders of His goodness. You may not know tomorrow’s route, but you do know the Guide who never leaves your side.  Final Thought When the season has you spinning, remember Jeremiah’s words:<br /> “Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord.” There is blessing, strength, and fruitfulness on the other side of trust. Root yourself deeply in Him. Walk by faith. God will carry you through the storm that seems impossible to survive. Nothing is impossible! "Be present. Be incredible.

But all too often, the daily grind, the chaos of schedules, and the relentless overwhelm shift your marriage from a source of strength to a pressure cooker of frustration. Instead of feeling like a teammate, you may start to feel misunderstood and undervalued. It doesn't have to be this way—when love makes you feel capable, not crazy. That's when the entire dynamic changes. You move from surviving the chaos to thriving together, building a solid foundation that can handle anything. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   The Invisible Drift: From Connection to Disconnection In the whirlwind of work deadlines, parenting duties, and endless to-dos, it’s easy to lose sight of why you fell in love in the first place. The very things that should unite you—a shared vision, mutual respect, and emotional safety—get buried under layers of exhaustion and distraction. When you aren’t feeling seen in your true capability, small irritations become criticisms, and misunderstandings spiral into conflicts. Instead of a partner, you feel like a problem to be managed or worse, a source of stress. The downward spiral begins. You can stop the downward spiral and change your direction when you live a different story. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live a different story in your marriage!   Think about it. What if you could change the narrative? What if your marriage could be the place where you show up powerful, understood, and energized—even amidst the chaos? 3 Ways to Feel Capable in Your Marriage—Even When Life Is Crazy 1. Communicate Your Needs Clearly and Calmly<br /> Being seen as capable means your spouse recognizes and values the unique strengths and challenges you bring. This starts with clear communication—not just about what you need, but how you want to be supported. Instead of venting in frustration or shutting down, take a moment to express your needs calmly and specifically: <ul> <li>“I’m feeling overwhelmed with the schedule this week. Could we look at the calendar together to balance things out?”</li> <li>“When you ask if I’m okay, it really helps me feel supported.”</li> </ul> This kind of communication invites partnership rather than blame, building trust and understanding over time. 2. Create Small Rituals That Reconnect<br /> Chaos makes connection easy to lose—but it’s also easy to reclaim. Simple, consistent habits can remind you and your spouse why you’re better together: <ul> <li>A 5-minute check-in before bed to share highs and lows</li> <li>A shared coffee or walk where the world’s distractions fade away</li> <li>Sending a quick text during the day to show you’re thinking of each other</li> </ul> These small moments add up, reminding both of you that you’re a team, capable of navigating the hard stuff together. 3. Celebrate Progress, Not Perfection<br /> Feeling capable isn’t about getting everything right—it’s about knowing you’re doing your best, and that it’s enough. Celebrate each other’s efforts instead of pointing out shortcomings, especially when life feels messy: <ul> <li>“I really appreciate how you handled the kids’ schedules this week, that took a load off my mind.”</li> <li>“Thanks for being patient when I was stressed out; it made a huge difference.”</li> </ul> This shifts the lens from frustration to appreciation, boosting confidence, connection, and resilience. Reclaiming Your Marriage’s Power You deserve a marriage where you feel capable, loved, and understood. It starts by breaking the cycle of being seen as “crazy” or overwhelmed and stepping into the strengths you bring as a partner. By communicating clearly, reconnecting intentionally, and celebrating progress, you can turn the chaos into a catalyst for deeper love and unshakable partnership. "Be present. Be incredible.

You hear it countless times: “I’m bored!”—as if boredom is some mysterious monster your kids are fighting every single day. No more boredom battles. But here’s the twist: many kids don’t truly know what boredom means these days. With screens and tech gadgets vying for their attention 24/7, boredom often becomes a code word for “I want someone else to entertain me.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Technology’s a double-edged sword. We all carry it, we all have to deal with it. Yes, it’s opened incredible doors for learning, creativity, and connection—but it’s also tied children constantly to screens, making the challenge of engaging them off-screen all the tougher. So, how do you raise kids who roam with dirty hands, messy faces, and feet that take them on real-world adventures? How do you flip the script so boredom becomes a trigger for curiosity, movement, and growth—not complaints and screen-time meltdowns? Your reaction and words that you use when the screaming of "I'm bored" echoes through the house, will either derail you as a parent, or propel you to the top of the mountain—but you have to be willing to take a chance on what you know works for your child. Cover your ears and engage your hands. That's where your heart meets your child's curiosity.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Cover your ears and engage your hands!   Any high-pitch whine can have you running with the dogs. When you ignore the fuss of "I'm bored," that opens up the door for more. More fun. More experiences. More memories. Here are 3 battle-tested strategies to win the “boredom” war this summer—strategies that don’t involve new toys, expensive camps, or endless handing over your phone. 1. Invent Adventures Together Give your kids the gift of imagination. Sit down and co-create “mission days” where you’re all explorers, scientists, or nature detectives. Set challenges like: <ul> <li>Backyard Safari: Hunt for bugs, leaves, and rocks. Who can find the weirdest insect?</li> <li>DIY Obstacle Course: Use cushions, ropes, and chalk to create a course that tests agility and creativity.</li> <li>Treasure Hunts: Write little riddles and clues leading them around the house or park.</li> </ul> When kids are part of the plan, they move from passive “boredom victims” to active participants in the fun. Plus, peeling dirt from under fingernails beats any screen glow. 2. Create with What’s Around You Forget fancy kits or tech toys. Grab art supplies, recyclables, sticks, mud, or kitchen ingredients and make a mess. Paint rocks to decorate the garden, build forts, or whip up mud pies. These hands-on projects engage their senses and develop fine motor skills—not to mention ignite their creativity. You don’t need Pinterest-perfect results. Kids crave real experiences, the ones where they can get dirty, experiment, and own what they make—even if it’s messy or imperfect. 3. Turn Screen Time Into Stepping Stones Cutting off tech altogether is unrealistic—and not even necessary. Instead, use tech as a springboard. Let your child watch a nature documentary, then head outside to find the animals or plants featured in it. Or use a simple app to stargaze, then go outside at night to catch constellations. By connecting digital content to real-world action, you empower your child to use technology, not be used by it.  You Are the Ultimate Distraction Remember: as a parent, you are the best distraction from boredom. Don’t buy into the trap that your kids’ “I’m bored” moments mean you have to shell out more money or let screens win the day. Instead, create your own adventures with your children. So, this summer, toss out the boredom scripts your kids throw at you. Pick up your dusty shoes, roll up your sleeves, and join their messy, joyous, adventurous world. Dirty hands, wild laughter, and tired feet? That’s parenting summer style—with no screams of “I’m bored” in sight. Go and create your now with your children; that's where memories are made.

Maybe it’s dim. Maybe it’s drowned out by doubt. But it’s there — that restless urge for something better, bigger, truer to who you really are. You are worth the fight! Here’s the raw truth — no one ever started a real change when everything was perfect. Life is messier than that. Focus feels impossible when the world is pulling you every which way. Your to-do list is screaming, expectations are piling, your energy tanks are empty, and your brain keeps finding every excuse to wait. You’re not alone. Every single person who’s ever moved mountains has felt this exact heaviness. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But let me drop this reality bomb: waiting for “perfect focus” is the biggest trap your dreams want you to avoid. Focus isn’t a switch you flip. It’s a muscle you build—one tiny choice at a time. The difference between the dreamers stuck circling “one day” and the ones crushing their goals isn’t that the latter have clearer skies or fewer distractions. It’s that they refuse to let their obstacles be their story’s ending. They start messy, imperfect, scared as all get out — and they do it anyway. What keeps you frozen? <ul> <li>Fear of failing? Remember: nobody remembers your mistakes; they only admire your comeback.</li> <li>Overwhelm? Break it down. One step. One minute. One word.</li> <li>Guilt or pressure? Screw the shoulds. Your mission is your rocket fuel.</li> <li>Lack of time? Build your fortress of focus around the minutes you do have — not the hours you wish for.</li> </ul> Here’s your permission slip: You don’t need a grand, flawless plan. Just a bold, stubborn heart that says, “I’m worth the fight.” The K.I.S.S. ~ You are worth the fight!   Dreams aren’t just for the lucky or the superhuman—they’re for the brave enough to start before feeling ready. So, right now? Make a tiny promise: <ul> <li>Write down one clear goal in a sentence.</li> <li>Close your eyes and picture yourself already winning.</li> <li>Take one imperfect action today—no matter how small.</li> </ul> Then, tomorrow, do it again. Rinse and repeat. Each step feeds your focus muscle. Each choice pushes back the noise. And slowly, that flicker of fire becomes an unstoppable blaze. You’re not stuck. You’re in the struggle necessary to become that bold, focused person your dream is calling you to be. Now, stand up. Shake off the doubt. Get fierce. The world is waiting for you to show up—not perfect, but persistent. Because here’s the real secret: Your dream doesn’t want you to give up. It needs you to get going. "Be present. Be incredible.

But it’s there — that restless urge for something better, bigger, truer to who you really are. You are worth the fight! Here’s the raw truth — no one ever started a real change when everything was perfect. Life is messier than that. Focus feels impossible when the world is pulling you every which way. Your to-do list is screaming, expectations are piling, your energy tanks are empty, and your brain keeps finding every excuse to wait. You’re not alone. Every single person who’s ever moved mountains has felt this exact heaviness. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But let me drop this reality bomb: waiting for “perfect focus” is the biggest trap your dreams want you to avoid. Focus isn’t a switch you flip. It’s a muscle you build—one tiny choice at a time. The difference between the dreamers stuck circling “one day” and the ones crushing their goals isn’t that the latter have clearer skies or fewer distractions. It’s that they refuse to let their obstacles be their story’s ending. They start messy, imperfect, scared as all get out — and they do it anyway. What keeps you frozen? <ul> <li>Fear of failing? Remember: nobody remembers your mistakes; they only admire your comeback.</li> <li>Overwhelm? Break it down. One step. One minute. One word.</li> <li>Guilt or pressure? Screw the shoulds. Your mission is your rocket fuel.</li> <li>Lack of time? Build your fortress of focus around the minutes you do have — not the hours you wish for.</li> </ul> Here’s your permission slip: You don’t need a grand, flawless plan. Just a bold, stubborn heart that says, “I’m worth the fight.” The K.I.S.S. ~ You are worth the fight!   Dreams aren’t just for the lucky or the superhuman—they’re for the brave enough to start before feeling ready. So, right now? Make a tiny promise: <ul> <li>Write down one clear goal in a sentence.</li> <li>Close your eyes and picture yourself already winning.</li> <li>Take one imperfect action today—no matter how small.</li> </ul> Then, tomorrow, do it again. Rinse and repeat. Each step feeds your focus muscle. Each choice pushes back the noise. And slowly, that flicker of fire becomes an unstoppable blaze. You’re not stuck. You’re in the struggle necessary to become that bold, focused person your dream is calling you to be. Now, stand up. Shake off the doubt. Get fierce. The world is waiting for you to show up—not perfect, but persistent. Because here’s the real secret: Your dream doesn’t want you to give up. It needs you to get going. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

And that’s exactly where many good intentions go to die: in the overwhelming noise of “all the things.” But what needs to be a BIG deal? Life isn’t about juggling everything perfectly all the time. It’s about identifying what truly needs to be a BIG deal in your routine — those few non-negotiable pillars that, when prioritized consistently, build your healthy habits and fuel your best life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Why Less is More in Healthy Living Trying to do “all the things” can make you do nothing well. You get trapped in overwhelm. Your brain freezes under the weight of decisions and to-dos, and you eventually throw in the towel. Health is not a math problem with infinite variables; it’s a practice of consistently showing up for yourself on the essentials that matter most. Once you zero in on those, the rest falls into place naturally. So, What Needs to Be a BIG Deal Every Day? Ask yourself: What three things in a healthy lifestyle deserve your top priority? Here’s the kicker — the answer isn’t the same for everyone. It’s unique to you, your body, your goals, and your life circumstances. But here’s how you can find your BIG deals: 1. Identify What Energizes You — Not Drains You Notice which habits leave you feeling alive, strong, and clear-headed versus which ones feel exhausting or joyless. Your big deals should fuel your energy, not deplete it. Is movement energizing? Is a morning ritual that grounds you non-negotiable? Put those front and center. 2. Pinpoint What Prevents You from Thriving What are the habits or neglects that consistently disrupt your well-being? Maybe it’s poor sleep, skipping meals, or chronic stress. These areas require your urgent attention because when they slide, everything else suffers. 3. Choose Consistency Over Perfection The BIG deal habits don’t have to be grand gestures. Small, daily actions repeated over time shape your health’s trajectory. What few actions are manageable to do every day and still move the needle toward your best self? The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now!   The Three Pillars That Commonly Make the Cut While your unique BIG deals vary, these three pillars often emerge as foundational to a healthy lifestyle: 1. Movement That Feels Good Find some form of daily movement — walking, stretching, dancing, or strength work — that you actually enjoy. Movement isn’t punishment; it’s a celebration of what your body can do and a key to mental clarity. 2. Mindful Nourishment Focus on foods and meals that nourish and satisfy you, not just on restrictions. Think quality over calorie counting. Eating mindfully helps you build a positive relationship with food that supports sustained health. 3. Restorative Rest Sleep may just be the most underrated health habit. Prioritizing quality rest allows your body and mind to recover, boosts immunity, and improves mood. Even small evening rituals can transform your sleep patterns. Your BIG Deal, Your Celebration Healthy living isn’t about grinding through an impossible checklist. It’s about creating space to celebrate who you are — and who you are becoming — from the inside out. When you commit to your unique BIG deals, you free yourself from overwhelm and create momentum toward a life that feels vibrant and intentional. Life is beautiful. Life is precious. Make your health habits a celebration, not a chore. Know what needs to be a BIG deal, and make those the center of your every day. "Be present. Be incredible.

It’s easy — dangerously easy — to lose sight of your own purpose and settle for the scraps left over after you’ve tried to manage everyone else’s priorities. Don't you dare dim your light. Why? Because you deserve better. You deserve more than the hand-me-down ambitions and borrowed dreams that drain your energy and silence your spark. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   So I’m here to say this loud and clear — don’t you dare dim your light. Your light is not a malfunction, a mood, or a momentary flicker. It’s a blaze. You were created to shine bright, for a purpose on purpose. The world doesn’t need another watered-down version of you trying to fit into somebody else’s mold. It demands the real, raw, and relentless you — the “you” who is growing, stretching, and evolving into who you are becoming. Who you are becoming matters just as much as who you’ve been. Too often, we define ourselves by our past, our struggles, or even our current role. But your identity is not static. It’s a dynamic story of growth, learning, and transformation. When you embrace who you are becoming, you open the door for influence and impact that comes from authenticity and fearless evolution. Think about it. The people who move the needle, who change the game, who inspire others — they’re never just selling a product or idea. They’re selling themselves fully realized. They show up as the people they are becoming, not the ones they used to be. And that vulnerability? It’s magnetic. But this takes courage. It takes belief. You have to believe that you are worthy of your dreams, your vision, and your own spotlight — no matter what noise or pressure tries to talk you out of it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't you dare dim your light!   And if you didn't know, here’s why you can’t afford to dim your light: <ul> <li> Because the world needs your unique influence. There’s no one else with your combination of gifts, experiences, and vision. The impact you’re meant to make depends on you showing up fully. </li> <li> Because no one else can fight your fight. Your journey, your voice, your authenticity — these are your power weapons. If you hide them, your cause loses its fiercest champion. </li> <li> Because selling yourself short steals from your future. Settling for scraps today means missing out on the abundance waiting for you when you step boldly into your purpose. </li> </ul> You are not here to be small, quiet, or safe. You are here to disrupt, to lead, to inspire, and to be a living legacy that makes the next generation brighter and braver. So, unless you want to live stuck in the background, tied to everyone else’s calendar and checklist, it’s time to make a decision:<br /> Will you dim your light or will you shine through the noise? I’m betting on the latter—because deep inside, you already know the answer.  Your next move? Own who you are becoming. Show up boldly. Trust that your light is needed. Make your impact by leading with authenticity, courage, and purpose. Don’t settle. Don’t pause. Don’t hide. Create your now! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It’s easy — dangerously easy — to lose sight of your own purpose and settle for the scraps left over after you’ve tried to manage everyone else’s priorities. Don't you dare dim your light. Why? Because you deserve better. You deserve more than the hand-me-down ambitions and borrowed dreams that drain your energy and silence your spark. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   So I’m here to say this loud and clear — don’t you dare dim your light. Your light is not a malfunction, a mood, or a momentary flicker. It’s a blaze. You were created to shine bright, for a purpose on purpose. The world doesn’t need another watered-down version of you trying to fit into somebody else’s mold. It demands the real, raw, and relentless you — the “you” who is growing, stretching, and evolving into who you are becoming. Who you are becoming matters just as much as who you’ve been. Too often, we define ourselves by our past, our struggles, or even our current role. But your identity is not static. It’s a dynamic story of growth, learning, and transformation. When you embrace who you are becoming, you open the door for influence and impact that comes from authenticity and fearless evolution. Think about it. The people who move the needle, who change the game, who inspire others — they’re never just selling a product or idea. They’re selling themselves fully realized. They show up as the people they are becoming, not the ones they used to be. And that vulnerability? It’s magnetic. But this takes courage. It takes belief. You have to believe that you are worthy of your dreams, your vision, and your own spotlight — no matter what noise or pressure tries to talk you out of it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't you dare dim your light!   And if you didn't know, here’s why you can’t afford to dim your light: <ul> <li> Because the world needs your unique influence. There’s no one else with your combination of gifts, experiences, and vision. The impact you’re meant to make depends on you showing up fully. </li> <li> Because no one else can fight your fight. Your journey, your voice, your authenticity — these are your power weapons. If you hide them, your cause loses its fiercest champion. </li> <li> Because selling yourself short steals from your future. Settling for scraps today means missing out on the abundance waiting for you when you step boldly into your purpose. </li> </ul> You are not here to be small, quiet, or safe. You are here to disrupt, to lead, to inspire, and to be a living legacy that makes the next generation brighter and braver. So, unless you want to live stuck in the background, tied to everyone else’s calendar and checklist, it’s time to make a decision:<br /> Will you dim your light or will you shine through the noise? I’m betting on the latter—because deep inside, you already know the answer.  Your next move? Own who you are becoming. Show up boldly. Trust that your light is needed. Make your impact by leading with authenticity, courage, and purpose. Don’t settle. Don’t pause. Don’t hide. Create your now! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Confusion doesn’t just cloud thinking—it demolishes action. And without action, your goals stay out of reach, buried under a pile of distracting thoughts, doubts, and what-ifs. You must learn how to quiet your mind. Let’s be real. When you don’t know exactly where you’re headed, the noise in your head hijacks your focus. Suddenly, every worry, outside opinion, or shiny distraction screams louder than your ambition. You start chasing the wrong things—or worse, you freeze. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Confusion Challenges Clarity. Clarity Kills Confusion. Imagine driving cross-country with your windshield covered in static. You think you’re moving forward until you suddenly crash into a ditch because you couldn’t see the road. That’s confusion. It’s a fog that distorts your vision so badly you can’t even tell which way is forward. Clarity is the windshield wiper. It cuts through the static. When you get crystal clear on your destination—what you want, why you want it, and what it looks like—the noise shrinks into white noise you can ignore. Why Does Noise Win? Because You're Feeding It. Here’s the kicker: The noise only dominates when you give it space. If you haven’t made the brutal decision about what you want (and what you don’t), your brain defaults to reacting to the loudest voices. Spoiler alert: These are rarely your own. When the goal is vague—“I want to be successful,” “I want to help people,” or “I want to figure it out”—your mind’s thirsty for specifics but only finds confusion. And in that vacuum, distractions rush in like vultures. Stop Trying to Multitask Your Way Out of the Chaos The worst thing you can do is try to shove every thought and idea into your mental hard drive at once. More noise equals less clarity, which equals less forward momentum. Instead, prune ruthlessly. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prune!   Choose one clear objective. Define the one transformation you provide or the one problem you solve. That’s your north star. Everything else is background static. How to Silence the Noise? <ol> <li> Pinpoint your destination — In one sharp sentence, answer: Who do I serve, what problem do I fix, and what transformation do I deliver? If you can’t say it, you aren’t clear enough. </li> <li> Write it down — Putting your goal on paper (or screen) traps the noise. Look at it daily. Let it be your reminder and your gatekeeper. </li> <li> Create mental boundaries — Block off distraction time. Turn off notifications. Give yourself space to focus on what matters. </li> <li> Reject shiny object syndrome — If it doesn’t align with your clear goal, ignore it—even if it looks like a “great opportunity.” </li> <li> Lean into discomfort — Silence isn’t just quiet sounds. It’s quieting your fears, doubts, and limiting beliefs. They scream the loudest when you try something new. </li> </ol> Clarity Accelerates You, Noise Paralyzes You No one ever blasted off toward their dream with a storm of brain noise whipping around them. The leaders who win are those who say NO to confusion and YES to clarity, even when it feels uncomfortable. They make tough calls, set boundaries, and silence the static long enough to move forward fast. So, what’s your move? Are you going to let the noise drown out your potential—or are you going to get ruthless with your clarity, silence the chaos, and go all in? Remember: If you’re not clear on where you’re going, the noise is all you’ll hear. And if that noise is in charge, you’re lost.  But when you quiet your mind, you silence the noise—create your now.

It’s a statement packed with strength: when God is by your side, fear of what others think, say, or do loses its grip. Faith over fear. But what does that truly mean outside of Sunday sermons or quiet moments of prayer? What does living with “faith over fear” actually look like day-to-day?

Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   1. Fear Is Real — But Faith Is Realer Fear is hardwired into us. The dread of rejection, failure, judgment, or harm can freeze the bravest souls. Fear whispers: "What if they say no? What if I lose? What if I’m not enough?" Psalm 118:6 flips that script. It’s not about ignoring fear but recognizing that something greater stands guard. Faith isn’t the absence of fear—it’s the courage to stand firm because of what you believe. It’s knowing God’s presence is infinitely more powerful than the opinions or actions of mere humans.  2. Faith Shows Up in Bold Decisions Living “faith over fear” means making choices that scare you—but you do them anyway. It could be: <ul> <li>Speaking up for what’s right even when it’s unpopular.</li> <li>Launching a business or career move that feels risky.</li> <li>Setting boundaries with people who drain or diminish you.</li> <li>Saying “no” to conformity so you can say “yes” to your calling.</li> </ul> Fear wants to keep you stuck in silence and safety. Faith propels you forward, anchored by the promise that God is on your side.  3. Faith Gives Peace Amid Uncertainty In real life, “not fearing man” doesn’t guarantee a smooth path. You will face criticism, misunderstanding, setbacks, and even betrayal. But faith is a shield that guards against the chaos. When you internalize Psalm 118:6, you develop an unshakable peace. You stop overanalyzing every reaction or outcome because your security rests in God’s favor, not human approval. The K.I.S.S. ~ Faith over fear!   4. Faith Transforms Your Identity Fear tells you that your worth depends on the acceptance of others. Faith reminds you whose you are. Living this verse means seeing yourself as loved, supported, and empowered by the Creator. That identity becomes your rock. You’re no longer tossed by every opinion or threat because you stand in the truth of God’s unwavering presence.  5. Faith Inspires Others to Bravery When you choose faith over fear, you become a beacon for those still trapped by fear. Your courage lights a path and invites others to consider that they, too, can live boldly, knowing God is their defender. Psalm 118:6 isn’t just a promise for you; it’s an invitation to others: “Come see what it looks like to fear less and live more.”  Walk It Out: Putting Faith Over Fear <ul> <li>Start small: Look for moments to choose faith in everyday decisions. Say what needs saying. Take a small risk.</li> <li>Practice prayer or meditation: Remind yourself regularly that God is by your side.</li> <li>Lean into scripture: Let verses like Psalm 118:6 root you in truth when anxiety creeps in.</li> <li>Surround yourself wisely: Engage with people who encourage your faith and celebrate your boldness.</li> </ul>  Faith Is Your Power Play Psalm 118:6 is a call to courage: The LORD is with you, so why fear what man can do? Living faith over fear is not naive optimism; it’s deliberate strength. It’s the daily choice to step forward with God as your shield, no matter what shakes your world. When you embrace that, fear loses its throne—and faith takes the lead. That’s not just biblical—it’s transformational living. "Be present. Be incredible.

Take a small risk.</li> <li>Practice prayer or meditation: Remind yourself regularly that God is by your side.</li> <li>Lean into scripture: Let verses like Psalm 118:6 root you in truth when anxiety creeps in.</li> <li>Surround yourself wisely: Engage with people who encourage your faith and celebrate your boldness.</li> </ul>  Faith Is Your Power Play Psalm 118:6 is a call to courage: The LORD is with you, so why fear what man can do? Living faith over fear is not naive optimism; it’s deliberate strength. It’s the daily choice to step forward with God as your shield, no matter what shakes your world. When you embrace that, fear loses its throne—and faith takes the lead. That’s not just biblical—it’s transformational living. "Be present. Be incredible.

You’re dealt unfair cards, opportunities slip through your fingers, and yet — somehow — you keep insisting on having things your way. But what happened to doing life together as a couple? If you want a marriage that lasts, it’s time for a mindset shift: stop always doing what you want. Think about what you do in your marriage now. How do you make decisions? Who makes those decisions? Are they one-sided, or do both of you share your thoughts and ideas? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Why We Fall Into the “Me-First” Trap It’s natural to want to fulfill your own desires. You are an individual, after all. But marriage is a partnership — a commitment to share your journey, all the ups and downs, with someone else. When you prioritize your own wants without truly including your spouse, you’re eroding that partnership. It’s not about losing your personality or your dreams. It’s about expanding your vision to include your partner’s heart and mind alongside your own. The K.I.S.S. ~ Become couple-centered!   How Do You Become Couple-Centered Instead of Self-Centered? Becoming a couple-centered spouse means you actively choose to weave your decisions, desires, and daily life with the perspective of "we” rather than “me.” It’s about respect, communication, and intentionality. Here are three practical moves any spouse can make to ensure they stop doing what they want and start including their spouse in the picture.  1. Check Yourself Before You Act — Practice Intentional Pause Before you make decisions, especially big or impactful ones, pause. Ask yourself: <ul> <li>“Would my spouse agree with this?”</li> <li>“How will this affect us?”</li> <li>“Have I asked for their input?”</li> </ul> This pause is your gateway to shifting from reactive, self-focused action to thoughtful consideration. It interrupts the autopilot mode of “doing what I want” and opens the door to dialogue, even if just internally at first.  2. Prioritize Open and Honest Communication Couples don’t magically sync up just because they share a house. You have to communicate. This isn’t about endlessly debating or impressing your point of view. It’s about genuinely inviting your spouse to share their thoughts, feelings, and preferences—and then valuing what they say enough to let it influence your decisions. Make it a habit to check in regularly: <ul> <li>“What do you think about this?”</li> <li>“How do you feel if we do it this way?”</li> <li>“I want us both to be happy — help me see your side.”</li> </ul> When communication moves from “telling” to “listening,” you create space for collaboration.  3. Create Shared Goals and Boundaries Marriage isn’t just about compromises made in the moment — it’s about creating a shared vision for your life together. Sit down and map out your priorities, values, and non-negotiables as a couple. What do you want your relationship to look like in five years? Ten? What are the things you both agree are important? Having these shared goals serves as a compass for decision-making and helps prevent the “me-first” mindset from derailing your journey. You’re not just living alongside each other; you’re building a life with a common purpose. Final Truth: Marriage Means You’re Not Solo Anymore Stop doing what you always want. Start doing what you both want — or at least what you agree on after you listen and compromise. Marriage isn’t about losing yourself; it’s about growing into a “we” that’s stronger, wiser, and more joyful than “me” ever could be. "Be present. Be incredible.

You want smiling kids, smooth mornings, and less grumbling behind closed doors. After all, isn’t that what a happy family looks like? But here’s the brutal truth: sometimes you have to stop making everyone happy. Because you won’t. Not your kids, not your partner, not even yourself, all the time. And that’s okay. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Why You’re Not Meant to Please Everyone The idea of a perfect family where everyone gets their way is a myth—a nice story we tell ourselves when the chaos settles for a moment. But real life? It’s messy. It’s uncomfortable sometimes. And that’s what raises kids who aren’t just surviving but thriving. What you really want are children who adapt to change, handle conflict with resilience, and realize the world doesn’t bend to their every whim. That means sometimes — many times — someone’s going to be disappointed or upset. That’s not your failure. That’s parenting. You were given the gift to parent; you get to decide how to parent well. The K.I.S.S. ~ Parent well!   Parenting well comes with all sorts of challenges. You get many lows with few highs. Or do you? The way you parent well comes from how you show up, filled up with the best intentions. However, I must say that does not give a parent full rein to be a bully parent. This may or may not be you. But please hear me out. You have to be able to look at all sides of the stories you're told, and know the reality of what is happening, not the one you make up in your head. Yes, even parents tell themselves stories to make them feel like they are in the "right" in what they're doing. But if you question that, or someone who loves your children questions that, it is a good indication you should look a little closer at the situation.  The main thing here is to know your intentions as a parent and ensure they are in the best interest of the child, not for your convenience.   Three Ways to Maintain Peace Without Making Everyone Happy How do you keep a home that feels peaceful without turning into a constant "yes" machine? Here are three practical moves: 1. Set Non-Negotiables With Compassion<br /> Make clear what rules and values aren’t up for debate — bedtimes, kindness, respect. Stand firm, but explain why these matter. Kids feel safer when boundaries are consistent. They might grumble, but they appreciate knowing what’s rock solid beneath their feet. Further, your child can say "no." If you teach them that they cannot, you are silencing them, telling them that they are not worthy and do not matter. This is a disservice to anyone's child. A child deserves to be respected, too.  2. Validate Feelings Without Caving<br /> When tempers flare or tears come, acknowledge the emotions. “I see you’re upset because you wanted more screen time. That’s frustrating.” Validation doesn’t mean giving in — it means you’re listening. Feeling heard diffuses tension and builds trust, even if the answer stays “no.” Keep in mind, that doesn't mean you become a bully to your child. Be firm with love. And just because your parents did it, doesn't mean you should. Think twice! 3. Model Calm, Not Perfection<br /> No parent is a peace-keeping superhero 24/7. When you mess up or lose patience, own it out loud. Show them how to apologize and reset. Ask for forgiveness for what you did. This teaches kids resilience and emotional intelligence far better than any “perfect” family photo ever could.  Stop Chasing Universal Happiness — Aim for Harmony Instead Parenting is the hardest job on earth, no doubt. You’ll have days you feel you’re on top of it — and days you want to throw in the towel. Trying to make everyone happy is not sustainable. Living for happiness is the quickest route to burnout. But seeking harmony? Now that’s sustainable. Harmony means balance, understanding, respect, unconditional love, and growth — even when it’s uncomfortable. You don’t need to be everyone’s hero or choreographer of perfect smiles. You need to be a parent who guides with unconditional love, strength, and clarity. That’s how you build a family grounded in peace — not perfection. Your child is not property; they are a human being created in the image of God, fearfully and wonderfully made. So, parent well!  You’ve got clarity. Now it’s time for action. Stop chasing the impossible, stop making everyone happy, and start building harmony that lasts. Your family will share more smiles. "Be present. Be incredible.

It’s full of twists, turns, and surprises that rarely match the plans we carefully craft in our heads. You make decisions, speak words, and take action hoping for the best. But when things don’t go your way—you know what happens. Stop being mad at yourself. As you already know, who bears the brunt of the disappointment? Too often... yep, it’s you—the harshest critic in the room. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Why We Turn Anger Inward It’s natural to feel frustrated when life derails your expectations. But turning that frustration into anger at yourself is a dead end. Anger slows you down, boiling over every mistake and extending the sting of things you cannot change. Instead of propelling you forward, it chains you to regret and self-condemnation. Life is rarely fair, and that’s just the raw truth.  The Real Way Forward  If you want to break free from this cycle, you need to stop being mad at yourself. This doesn’t mean ignoring your mistakes or failing to learn from them—it means refusing to let anger become your default. Nobody is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes, and yes, you will make more. But those stumbles never equate to being "not good enough." That’s a damaging myth you must reject now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop being mad at yourself!   Focus on What Matters  Pause and ask yourself: What truly deserves your energy? When you stand before the mirror, let your presence be calm and purposeful, not harsh or unruly. Your thoughts and words to yourself shape your mindset far more than any external circumstance. Remember: you were made for more. You were created on purpose, for a purpose.  Choose Your Energy Wisely  Every day grants you the choice of where to invest your emotional energy. Holding onto anger toward yourself won’t build success; it only adds weight to your setbacks.

It’s full of twists, turns, and surprises that rarely match the plans we carefully craft in our heads. You make decisions, speak words, and take action hoping for the best. But when things don’t go your way—you know what happens. Stop being mad at yourself. As you already know, who bears the brunt of the disappointment? Too often... yep, it’s you—the harshest critic in the room. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Why We Turn Anger Inward It’s natural to feel frustrated when life derails your expectations. But turning that frustration into anger at yourself is a dead end. Anger slows you down, boiling over every mistake and extending the sting of things you cannot change. Instead of propelling you forward, it chains you to regret and self-condemnation. Life is rarely fair, and that’s just the raw truth.  The Real Way Forward  If you want to break free from this cycle, you need to stop being mad at yourself. This doesn’t mean ignoring your mistakes or failing to learn from them—it means refusing to let anger become your default. Nobody is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes, and yes, you will make more. But those stumbles never equate to being "not good enough." That’s a damaging myth you must reject now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop being mad at yourself!   Focus on What Matters  Pause and ask yourself: What truly deserves your energy? When you stand before the mirror, let your presence be calm and purposeful, not harsh or unruly. Your thoughts and words to yourself shape your mindset far more than any external circumstance. Remember: you were made for more. You were created on purpose, for a purpose.  Choose Your Energy Wisely  Every day grants you the choice of where to invest your emotional energy. Holding onto anger toward yourself won’t build success; it only adds weight to your setbacks. Instead, channel your strength into growth, resilience, and self-compassion — who you are and who you are becoming. Get Ready Stop being mad at yourself. You’ll be far more effective, motivated, and yes—radiantly “prettier”—when there’s less mud on your face and in your mind. Life’s challenges will keep coming, but your response will determine the story you tell—and the success you build. Show up for yourself today. You’ve got this. And God's got you! "Be present.

Comparison is a trap. It’s a dark quicksand that pulls you under—sapping your confidence, hijacking your joy, and holding you back from the healthy, fulfilled life you deserve. So here’s your wake-up call: stop comparing yourself. News flash: You are made for more. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Not to undersell yourself or settle for what you “think” you should be worth. Life is precious—a limited resource that demands you show up fully, honor your own journey, and speak your own truth. The soil of your heart deserves nurturing, not weeds of envy and doubt. But what happens when you live in the spirit of comparison? For anyone plugged into social media—Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Pinterest—this spirit doesn’t just knock, it moves in. Every scroll, every double-tap, every pause on someone’s highlight reel seeds a dangerous question: “Why am I not them?” These platforms are engineered to spotlight what you lack. It’s not a glitch; it’s their business model. When you feed on the curated perfection of others, the narrative rewires your brain to focus on your supposed shortcomings. Think about the last time you opened social media with a purpose. Most times, we just scroll—mindlessly, endlessly—feeding the machine that fuels comparison. And suddenly, hope gets replaced by "not enough." Ambition transforms into paralysis. It’s a hard pill, but one you must swallow to move forward. When it comes to healthy living, this poison is even more deadly. If your idea of wellness is modeled entirely on social media gurus, influencers, or viral “miracle” diets, you’re on shaky ground. That’s comparison, plain and simple — and it doesn’t serve your body or your mind. Your health isn’t a one-size-fits-all viral trend. It’s personal, sacred, and deserves your unique commitment. So stop! The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop comparing yourself!   Quit watering the weeds of what you don’t have, and start cultivating the garden of who you really are. What you plant and fertilize will grow. Want something different? You have to do something different. That means changing the mental diet you consume every day. It means smashing the comparison cycle and planting seeds of self-trust, action, and authenticity.  3 Actions to Extinguish the Spirit of Comparison and Tune Into Your Heart 1. Practice Social Media Discipline: Own your time, don’t let it own you.<br /> Set strict boundaries for social scrolling. Use social platforms with intention—no aimless scrolling allowed. Try scheduling 10 minutes a day max or use apps that block distracting feeds. Remember: what you consume mentally shapes your reality.  2. Create a “Self-Respect Ritual” Daily:<br /> This could be journaling three things you actually accomplished that day, affirming your unique strengths, or setting clear, personal goals that aren’t tied to anyone else’s timeline. Make it non-negotiable. This recharges your mindset and weeds out toxic comparison noise.  3. Celebrate Your Own Progress Relentlessly:<br /> Comparison kills momentum. Instead, track your wins, no matter how small. Progress is success—even if it looks different from someone else’s. Own your pace. Own your path. Be your own fan, not your own judge.  Let me level with you: Comparison isn’t just a habit. It’s a silent addiction to distraction and dissatisfaction. If you want a better life, you have to dig deeper, plant your roots firmly, and stop feeding that hungry, destructive spirit.  You’ve got this.  Now it’s time to stop comparing yourself, stop looking left and right. Look forward, look inside—and go create your now.  "Be present. Be incredible.

We rush, we hustle, we plan every minute of every day—always looking backwards or forwards, never fully rooted in the now. Reflecting on where we’ve been, obsessing over where we’re going, while the present moment quietly slips away. Yet, deep down, we know: Being present is what really matters. So stop missing your life. Imagine what your life would look like if you didn't have every second of every day planned? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Would you have more freedom? Would it drive you crazy because every second is not planned? Or do you really not care; you handle what's right in front of you constantly?  Today, I want to encourage you to breathe and stop missing your life. Seriously, do something that you haven't done in a while: sit and take in all that is around you. Last night I was cooking out on the grill. The gray skies were moving in as the wind began to pick up. I knew I needed to get the steaks on if dinner was going to be at least halfway decent. You can't have fresh corn on the cob and baked potatoes without some yummy steaks! Well, in the quickness of the minutes, I chose to sit outside and watch the clouds roll in. I enjoyed watching how the smoke moved swiftly from one side of the Kamado Grill to the other. Nothing was more spectacular than experiencing change in the moment. What if you would slow down enough so you could speed up later when needed? The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop missing your life!   You don't have to wait for the craziness to dissipate. In fact, if you do, then you'll say goodbye to a day before you said hello. So be brave in a magnificent way. Take a moment to appreciate all the beautiful things around you. <ul> <li>Maybe it's sitting poolside or reading a book on the couch. </li> <li>Maybe it's hugging your children just because you can.</li> <li>Maybe it's enjoy a brisk walk in the humid morning.</li> </ul> Pause for a moment. Take it all in. Listen to the silence humming beneath the noise. Presence reveals beauty you didn’t see before. Today, instead of missing your life, show up full and ready. This is your moment to shine—not by doing more, but by simply being. Stop missing your life. It’s waiting. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Would you have more freedom? Would it drive you crazy because every second is not planned? Or do you really not care; you handle what's right in front of you constantly?  Today, I want to encourage you to breathe and stop missing your life. Seriously, do something that you haven't done in a while: sit and take in all that is around you. Last night I was cooking out on the grill. The gray skies were moving in as the wind began to pick up. I knew I needed to get the steaks on if dinner was going to be at least halfway decent. You can't have fresh corn on the cob and baked potatoes without some yummy steaks! Well, in the quickness of the minutes, I chose to sit outside and watch the clouds roll in. I enjoyed watching how the smoke moved swiftly from one side of the Kamado Grill to the other. Nothing was more spectacular than experiencing change in the moment. What if you would slow down enough so you could speed up later when needed? The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop missing your life!   You don't have to wait for the craziness to dissipate. In fact, if you do, then you'll say goodbye to a day before you said hello. So be brave in a magnificent way. Take a moment to appreciate all the beautiful things around you. <ul> <li>Maybe it's sitting poolside or reading a book on the couch. </li> <li>Maybe it's hugging your children just because you can.</li> <li>Maybe it's enjoy a brisk walk in the humid morning.</li> </ul> Pause for a moment. Take it all in. Listen to the silence humming beneath the noise. Presence reveals beauty you didn’t see before. Today, instead of missing your life, show up full and ready. This is your moment to shine—not by doing more, but by simply being. Stop missing your life. It’s waiting. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

In a world filled with distractions, it can be challenging to stay focused on what truly matters. But it's time to break free from the cycle of mindless scrolling and endless to-do lists. It's time to stop being a goldfish. Life moves quickly, often leaving us feeling like our attention span is as fleeting as a goldfish's - about 9 seconds. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   With technology pulling us one way and family obligations tugging us another, it's easy to get lost in a sea of distractions. The average human attention span of 8 seconds may not differ much from that of a goldfish, highlighting the need to reassess how we prioritize our focus.<br /> <br /> While goldfish may seem forgetful creatures, studies show that they possess remarkable memory capabilities. Just as goldfish can recall specific tasks over time, we too can train our minds to prioritize what truly matters and navigate life's maze of distractions.<br /> <br /> By recognizing the parallels between our attention spans and those of goldfish, we can appreciate the importance of intentional focus and memory in shaping our daily experiences. So, let's break free from the cycle of fleeting attention spans and embrace the power of focused intention in achieving our dreams and goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the power of focused intention!   You can consider the bare basics of intentionality by setting SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound), practicing mindfulness, and creating a distraction-free zone to focus. All of these are obvious. But I want you to go a little deeper. 1. Seek Mentorship and Accountability: Surround yourself with mentors, coaches, or a supportive community that can provide guidance, feedback, and accountability on your journey towards achieving your goals. Engaging with individuals who share your values and aspirations can offer new perspectives, motivation, and encouragement, helping you stay intentional and committed to your growth and success. 2. Gratitude and Intentions Rituals: Start and end each day with a gratitude and intentions ritual to set a positive tone and purposeful direction for your day. Expressing gratitude for what you have and setting intentions for what you wish to achieve can shift your mindset towards abundance and clarity, fostering a deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment in your pursuits. 3. Journaling and Reflection: Incorporate regular journaling and reflection practices into your routine to gain insights into your thoughts, emotions, and progress towards your goals. By writing down your reflections, challenges, and breakthroughs, you can identify patterns, set intentions, and deepen your self-awareness, ultimately guiding you towards intentional actions aligned with your aspirations. I want you to think about what works for you. Because what I know about you — you are not a goldfish looking at the world from the world's perspective. You have gifts and talents to share with the world you touch, your family and friends, your community, and your church. Be intentionally and attentive to who you are and who you are becoming.  You are made for more. Create your now! "Be present. Be incredible.

The Bible teaches us to "Do not turn to the right or left; keep your foot from evil" (Proverbs 4:27), reminding us to stay on the path of righteousness and refrain from behaviors that distance us from God's loving presence. Stop going in the wrong direction. To live a life that reflects God's desires for us, we must first identify and resist temptations that lead us to sin.

By turning to prayer, Scripture, and seeking wisdom from mentors, we can strengthen our resolve to resist sin and choose righteousness.<br /> <br /> Living a life that pleases God entails embodying virtues such as love, kindness, compassion, and humility. True happiness, as envisioned by God, is not merely about fleeting pleasures or worldly successes, but about cultivating a heart that reflects His love and grace. It involves placing our trust in Him, surrendering our will to His, and striving to live in accordance with His teachings. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop going in the wrong direction!   Practically, embodying God's values involves daily acts of love, generosity, forgiveness, and service to others. It means treating our neighbors with respect, showing compassion to those who are marginalized, and practicing humility in our interactions. By imitating the character of Christ and allowing His Spirit to work in and through us, we can become beacons of light in a world in need of hope and healing. Maybe you are in need of hope and healing. Are you finding yourself being more of a fool and looking back on what God has already forgiven you for? It's all too easy for us to get trapped in where we came from, what happened in the past, and why we didn't do what we should have. But could we have done it differently? Who knows? Well, God knows this. As Paul wrote in Philippians 3:13-14, 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 3:13-14) Are you willing to turn around and go God's way? Stop going in the wrong direction. That's what God wants you to learn. Ask for forgiveness, and press on. Ultimately, aligning your will with God's involves a conscious choice to prioritize your relationship with Him above all else. It requires ongoing commitment, self-reflection, and a willingness to surrender your desires to His higher purpose. As you strive to walk in His ways and live out His values, you can experience the abundant life that He has promised and find true fulfillment in following His path of love and grace.

It's easy to get caught up in the daily grind and forget to pause and reflect; take a moment to look how far you've come. Doing life together is better, but it does require a significant amount of work. Even though the work is worth it, you won't know it unless you take time to reflect and look how far you've come. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Think back to things that drove you crazy. Yet, as you've matured and grown individually and as a couple, you see what drove you crazy as a little quirk that you now giggle about. Life is too short to fret about all the things. There are definitely things that should and will concern you. But not all the things. Otherwise, you are going to drive yourself crazy for sure. However, you don't have to be like everyone else. You can view your spouse through the lens of unconditional love. That will bring you to the point where you can celebrate how far you've come. The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate how far you've come!   If you don't, no one will. In fact, why not do it every year? Imagine what that would do for your relationship and bond together. You could see the good, the bad, and the ugly with a different perspective now that you're on the other side. It might be something that all of us need to try. Here are three ways to celebrate how far you've come as partners and to cherish the blessings amidst the challenges.<br /> <br /> 1. Reflect on Milestones: Take a trip down memory lane by revisiting significant moments in your relationship. Whether it's your first date, the day you got engaged, or a memorable vacation, reminiscing about these milestones can reignite the spark and remind you of the bond you share. Create a scrapbook, watch old videos, or simply sit down and share your favorite memories with each other.<br /> <br /> 2. Acknowledge Growth: Marriage is a journey of growth and self-discovery. Reflect on how you have both evolved as individuals and as a couple. Have you overcome challenges together? Have you developed new hobbies or interests? Acknowledge the progress you've made, both individually and as partners, and celebrate the ways in which you have supported each other's growth.<br /> <br /> 3. Express Gratitude: Take a moment to express gratitude for your partner and the journey you've shared together. Write a heartfelt letter, plan a surprise date night, or simply say "thank you" for the little things they do. Gratitude can deepen your connection and remind you of the blessings in your life, even amidst the chaos of everyday responsibilities.<br /> <br /> Life is a beautiful journey, and marriage is a testament to the strength of love and commitment. By taking the time to look back and appreciate how far you've come as a couple, you can find renewed joy and appreciation for the remarkable bond you share. Embrace the journey, celebrate the milestones, and cherish the moments that have brought you closer together. "Be present. Be incredible.

It's easy to get caught up in the daily grind and forget to pause and reflect; take a moment to look how far you've come. Doing life together is better, but it does require a significant amount of work. Even though the work is worth it, you won't know it unless you take time to reflect and look how far you've come. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Yet, as you've matured and grown individually and as a couple, you see what drove you crazy as a little quirk that you now giggle about. Life is too short to fret about all the things. There are definitely things that should and will concern you. But not all the things. Otherwise, you are going to drive yourself crazy for sure. However, you don't have to be like everyone else. You can view your spouse through the lens of unconditional love. That will bring you to the point where you can celebrate how far you've come. The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate how far you've come!   If you don't, no one will. In fact, why not do it every year? Imagine what that would do for your relationship and bond together. You could see the good, the bad, and the ugly with a different perspective now that you're on the other side. It might be something that all of us need to try. Here are three ways to celebrate how far you've come as partners and to cherish the blessings amidst the challenges.<br /> <br /> 1. Reflect on Milestones: Take a trip down memory lane by revisiting significant moments in your relationship.

You can do everything right, only to get most of it wrong. Yes, it's that unfair. But what is really unfair is when parents seem to fuss nonstop about anything and everything. Even with a little less exaggeration, love more than you complain. As parents, we should want what's best for our kids, but it can't come at the expense of their self-esteem and confidence. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Our children need to know that their accomplishments and achievements don't outweigh their presence. Who they are matters, not necessarily what they do.<br /> <br /> Think about it this way: If you were told that your child would be the President of the United States, and they ended up being an electrician, would you treat them differently since they didn't get what was theirs to have?<br /> <br /> Disappointments from our children come in many shapes and sizes, from their reckless decisions to not winning their games.<br /> <br /> But why do we get caught up in that? Have you ever thought about what your child wants?<br /> <br /> Now, yes, age and stage matter. A two-year-old will not know what they like/need like a fourteen-year-old would. However, it's not our job to "force" or strongly encourage them to do one thing over the next. Don't you want what your child wants for them?<br /> <br /> If that's you, then you gotta love more than you complain. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love more than you complain!   And that complaining sounds very different to us than it does to our children. We might think we are encouraging and cheering them on to the next thing. But sometimes, all they hear is, "You gotta get this." Pleasing parents comes at a cost, too. And it's not usually to the parents. The children take it personally and then hide it in their hearts, which either helps them or significantly weighs them down.  Therefore, being mindful of how your child responds to your communication is crucial. And if you have more than one child, you need to know that one size does not fit all! 1. Practice Gratitude: Instead of focusing on what your child is not doing or achieving, take time each day to express gratitude for who they are and the unique qualities they possess. Celebrate their individuality and strengths. Tell them you are thankful for them. You are grateful that you get to be their mom or dad.<br /> <br /> 2. Effective Communication: Instead of resorting to constant complaints or criticisms, open up a dialogue with your child. Ask more questions rather than forcing your ideas down their throats. Listen to their thoughts and feelings without judgment. Understanding their perspective can strengthen your bond and foster a more positive relationship. You get to know who they are and who they are becoming. <br /> <br /> 3. Celebrate Small Wins: Rather than solely emphasizing big accomplishments or milestones, recognize and celebrate the small victories your child achieves each day. Whether it's completing a homework assignment or showing kindness to a friend, acknowledging their efforts can boost their confidence and self-worth. Notice what they do every day, not just the big stuff along the way. Parenting is a balancing act between guiding your children towards success and nurturing their emotional well-being. By choosing to love more than you complain, you create a foundation of understanding, acceptance, and support that empowers your children to grow into confident, compassionate individuals. Let's remember that our children's worth is not measured by their accomplishments, but by the love and kindness they bring into the world. "Be present. Be incredible.

By taking small, intentional steps towards your goals, you can gradually move closer to the life you envision for yourself.<br /> <br /> Remember to take A.I.M. - action ignites motivation. Start by taking action, no matter how small. Set your intentions clearly and stay focused on your end goal. Allow that initial action to build momentum and motivate you forward towards the next step.<br /> <br /> So, stand out from the crowd and let your unique qualities shine. Soar above the limitations and doubts that hold you back. You are capable of achieving incredible things, but it all starts with a decision to step out of your comfort zone and into your greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo<br /> <br /> Let today be the day you choose to stand out and soar. The world is waiting for your brilliance to shine brightly.

How can you juggle everything and fail at nothing? When seasons keep you stranded and the feelings of unaccomplishment drown out the hope, maybe you're supposed to feel stuck.

We set our sights on lofty aspirations and grandiose dreams, believing that only by conquering the monumental tasks can we truly prove our worth.

But what happens when you have been working hard day after day, month upon month, to years later where your suddenly is here, arriving where you always wanted to be. Life is a rollercoaster, full of ups and downs that can either propel you forward or halt your progress in an instant. Despite the unpredictable nature of life, there comes a moment when your hard work and persistence pay off, and you find yourself exactly where you've always wanted to be - your "suddenly" has arrived. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   And sometimes, it can feel like it happened overnight. Yet, as you and I know, nothing worth pursuing in the long run is something that happens overnight. Virality is not the answer to your dreams. Dreams and goals change as you grow and gain wisdom; however, that doesn't mean you don't achieve them in a matter of time.<br /> <br /> You must keep what you want in front of you, regardless of your situation or circumstances.<br /> <br /> Otherwise, you will always be putting your dreams and goals on hold, and what will come from that? Most likely, nothing you really desired.<br /> <br /> If you want to take your dreams and goals to the next level, you must keep moving forward.<br /> <br /> The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep moving forward!   And moving forward does not require huge steps that make you feel hesitant or resistant to what might be.<br /> <br /> Those "might be" moments could actually change your trajectory in your life, opening up doors and opportunities for you to soar. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo<br /> <br /> What does this make possible?<br /> <br /> I think about Roland Garros (The French Open) and how Coco Gauff and Carlos Alcarez had to fight themselves more so in their mind and not with their might.<br /> <br /> They put in the reps and strengthening their serves, but that wasn't what won the match for them. They had to get out of their own heads, their self-doubt that stood in the way.<br /> <br /> Coco Gauff eluded to the fact during her press conference that she was her biggest doubter. We can be our worst critic. So, how can you silence your doubts and unlock your full potential? Here are three actionable steps to help you stay committed to pursuing your dreams:<br /> <br /> 1.

But what happens when you have been working hard day after day, month upon month, to years later where your suddenly is here, arriving where you always wanted to be. Life is a rollercoaster, full of ups and downs that can either propel you forward or halt your progress in an instant. Despite the unpredictable nature of life, there comes a moment when your hard work and persistence pay off, and you find yourself exactly where you've always wanted to be - your "suddenly" has arrived. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   And sometimes, it can feel like it happened overnight. Yet, as you and I know, nothing worth pursuing in the long run is something that happens overnight. Virality is not the answer to your dreams. Dreams and goals change as you grow and gain wisdom; however, that doesn't mean you don't achieve them in a matter of time.<br /> <br /> You must keep what you want in front of you, regardless of your situation or circumstances.<br /> <br /> Otherwise, you will always be putting your dreams and goals on hold, and what will come from that? Most likely, nothing you really desired.<br /> <br /> If you want to take your dreams and goals to the next level, you must keep moving forward.<br /> <br /> The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep moving forward!   And moving forward does not require huge steps that make you feel hesitant or resistant to what might be.<br /> <br /> Those "might be" moments could actually change your trajectory in your life, opening up doors and opportunities for you to soar. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo<br /> <br /> What does this make possible?<br /> <br /> I think about Roland Garros (The French Open) and how Coco Gauff and Carlos Alcarez had to fight themselves more so in their mind and not with their might.<br /> <br /> They put in the reps and strengthening their serves, but that wasn't what won the match for them. They had to get out of their own heads, their self-doubt that stood in the way.<br /> <br /> Coco Gauff eluded to the fact during her press conference that she was her biggest doubter. We can be our worst critic. So, how can you silence your doubts and unlock your full potential? Here are three actionable steps to help you stay committed to pursuing your dreams:<br /> <br /> 1. Set Bite-size Actions: Dedicate time each day to work towards your aspirations, no matter how small the step may seem. Consistent effort compounds over time, leading to significant progress. <br /> <br /> 2. Visualize Where You're Going: Picture yourself achieving your dreams and immerse yourself in the emotions of that moment. Presence counts! Visualization can enhance motivation and reinforce your commitment to your goals.<br /> <br /> 3. Seek Support and Accountability: Surround yourself with individuals who believe in your potential and provide encouragement during challenging times. A strong support system can boost your confidence and resilience.<br /> <br /> Don't settle for what comes easy. Reaching for the stars requires you to stretch more than you could before. You've got what it takes. Go and create your now. "Be present. Be incredible.

Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, ‘Who is the Lord?’ Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God." ~ Proverbs 30:7-9 (NIV) Life can bombard our thoughts and distract us from what matters from God's perspective. When we become consumed by the stuff of the world, we isolate our hearts, leading us away from God. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Busyness can be our greatest distraction even though we mean well. We desire to live out our lives God's way, only to be confronted by the world's way.<br /> <br /> How do you stay on track? How do you keep from wondering and not getting lost more than when you found God?<br /> <br /> All good questions, but where are the answers? The K.I.S.S. ~ Give me only my daily bread!   Perhaps the humble prayer from Proverbs 30 can serve as a guiding light to help us remain connected not to material possessions, but to the essence and presence of God.<br /> <br /> Keeping our focus on God requires deliberate thoughts and actions. It demands honesty with ourselves – Are we truly prioritizing our relationship with Him, or has He been relegated to the bottom of our to-do list?<br /> <br /> There's no judgment here. But if spiritual growth is what you seek, faith must be your compass, guiding you through uncharted waters. "Walk by faith, not by sight." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7<br /> <br /> God yearns for you to draw nearer to Him. Approach Him as you are, without pretense or falsehood – just your authentic self. Allow Him to work within you, transforming your heart as you seek nothing more than your daily sustenance.<br /> <br /> In this simplicity lies the essence of faith – a daily surrender to God's providence, trusting Him to meet your needs and guide you on your journey. God wants you to draw closer to Him. Come as you are; no fluff or lies, just you! Then, let Him transform your heart from the inside out as He gives you only your daily bread. "Be present.

However, if you want a strong foundation, stop waiting to be invited. "In marriage, it takes one to start and two to finish." ~ Kristianne Wargo Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Not one person can be solely responsible for what happens in the marriage. Both partners need to be involved in order to work out what's better together. Yet, someone has to be the one to take the initiative.  It's kind of like a hockey game. You can have all the hockey players on the ice with their sticks and the puck, but until one person hits the puck, the game hasn't started. Your marriage doesn't live on dreams alone. The house with a white picket fence, two kids, and a handsome husband feels great in your fantasy world. But in reality, it takes action to move mountains for your marriage. Take A.I.M.! The K.I.S.S. ~ Take A.I.M.!   When you realize that actions speak louder than words, you can shift your marriage overnight. Certainly, it will require consistency in your actions, honesty, plus forgiveness. There are proactive steps you can take. Here are three proactive steps individuals can take to ignite motivation and create a fulfilling marriage:<br /> <br /> 1. Speak with Actions: Open and honest communication is the cornerstone of any successful relationship. Instead of waiting for the other person to initiate conversations, take the lead in discussing your feelings, thoughts, and concerns. Actively listen to your partner and strive to understand their perspective by asking questions. By fostering a culture of open communication, you can strengthen your bond and resolve conflicts more effectively.<br /> <br /> 2. Show Appreciation: Expressing gratitude and appreciation for your partner's efforts can go a long way in reinforcing your connection. Don't wait for special occasions to show your love; small gestures of kindness and acknowledgment can make a significant impact on your relationship. Take the initiative to celebrate your partner's achievements and support them through challenges, demonstrating your commitment and care.<br /> <br /> 3. Spend Quality Time Together: Building shared experiences is essential for strengthening your relationship. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment to spend time together, prioritize quality moments in your daily life. Whether it's a simple dinner date, a weekend getaway, or a leisurely walk in the park, carve out time to connect and enjoy each other's company. Investing in your relationship through shared activities and bonding experiences can deepen your emotional intimacy and build a lasting connection that is almost impossible to break.<br /> <br /> By taking action and proactively nurturing your marriage, you can create a fulfilling and sustainable partnership that works for both you and your partner. Remember, in marriage, it takes one to start and two to finish. "Be present. Be incredible.

Certainly, it will require consistency in your actions, honesty, plus forgiveness. There are proactive steps you can take. Here are three proactive steps individuals can take to ignite motivation and create a fulfilling marriage:<br /> <br /> 1. Speak with Actions: Open and honest communication is the cornerstone of any successful relationship. Instead of waiting for the other person to initiate conversations, take the lead in discussing your feelings, thoughts, and concerns. Actively listen to your partner and strive to understand their perspective by asking questions. By fostering a culture of open communication, you can strengthen your bond and resolve conflicts more effectively.<br /> <br /> 2. Show Appreciation: Expressing gratitude and appreciation for your partner's efforts can go a long way in reinforcing your connection. Don't wait for special occasions to show your love; small gestures of kindness and acknowledgment can make a significant impact on your relationship. Take the initiative to celebrate your partner's achievements and support them through challenges, demonstrating your commitment and care.<br /> <br /> 3. Spend Quality Time Together: Building shared experiences is essential for strengthening your relationship. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment to spend time together, prioritize quality moments in your daily life. Whether it's a simple dinner date, a weekend getaway, or a leisurely walk in the park, carve out time to connect and enjoy each other's company. Investing in your relationship through shared activities and bonding experiences can deepen your emotional intimacy and build a lasting connection that is almost impossible to break.<br /> <br /> By taking action and proactively nurturing your marriage, you can create a fulfilling and sustainable partnership that works for both you and your partner. Remember, in marriage, it takes one to start and two to finish. "Be present. Be incredible.

But how often do you stop to consider what you are truly building when it comes to your family – your living legacy journey? The living legacy you live and leave behind is not just about how many kids you have or the holiday traditions you uphold; it's about the lasting impact your family will have for generations to come.

Yes, they're essential, but it involves looking at the bigger picture and understanding the living legacy you want to create. So, what are you truly building with your family?<br /> <br /> Why Designing Your Legacy Matters<br /> <br /> Life is a precious gift that should be intentionally designed and planned for. From the number of children you have (which there are many questions that come with that) to the values and traditions you instill in them, every decision shapes the living legacy and its impact. By thinking ahead and considering the long-term impact of your choices, you can build a strong foundation that stands the test of time. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build your family on purpose!   You can always view it from a family planning perspective, but the purpose is much greater than the number. What does it look like to build your family on purpose? Three Ways to Build a Lasting Family Legacy<br /> <br /> 1. Create Meaningful Connections: Take the time to connect with each family member on a deeper, more meaningful level. Listen to their dreams, fears, and aspirations, and offer unwavering support. Building a strong bond within your family will foster trust, resilience, and a sense of belonging that transcends generations. Just because you are the parent doesn't mean your kids automatically feel your connection and support. You've gotta put yourself out there and show them you care!<br /> <br /> 2. Lead by Example: Children learn by observing, so be mindful of the values and behaviors you exhibit in front of them. They are your mirror. Show integrity, kindness, and empathy in your actions, and your children will follow suit. By being a positive role model, you set the tone for the type of legacy you want to create. If you are always trying to prove your worth to them, they are not going to see you the way you think they see you. You're going to be "that" kind of parent who is all about themselves. No ego in parenting! See your child, not yourself!<br /> <br /> 3. Celebrate Milestones: Acknowledge the achievements and milestones of each family member, no matter how big or small. Celebrating successes builds confidence, fosters unity, and creates lasting memories that strengthen family bonds. These shared experiences shape the narrative of your family's living legacy, leaving a lasting legacy of love and support.<br /> <br /> Embracing the Journey of Building Your Family Legacy<br /> <br /> Building a family legacy is a journey filled with challenges, triumphs, and growth. It's not always easy, but the rewards far outweigh the struggles. Embrace the process of designing your legacy with intention, love, and a commitment to nurturing the relationships that matter most.<br /> <br /> Remember, what you are really building is more than just a family – you are creating a living legacy that will endure for generations to come. Cherish the moments, learn from the setbacks, and celebrate the beauty that emerges from the journey. Your family's living legacy is a reflection of your love, values, and commitment to creating a lasting impact on the world.<br /> <br /> Start building your family living legacy today! "Be present.

Perhaps you have chosen to do so, but your words do not match your actions. Watch what you say! Imagine calling yourself every day and telling yourself what to do. What do you sound like? Would you be empowered about what you need to do for the day? Or would you talk down to yourself, claiming all of the things that have gone wrong lately? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Life is not about the failures, but how you take the lessons learned and apply them to your daily life.  Yes, you get to choose how you show up. You get to determine how "healthy" you want to be. You can lean toward being a very health-conscious enthusiast. Or you go a little slower and figure it out along the way.  Healthy living is a daily commitment. Your thoughts connect to your actions, which tell your body what healthy looks like. For some, it's sitting on the couch, not doing much but enjoying a few chips and dip. Then you have those who want better than where they are. What do you do to stay inspired? What thoughts are leading your actions because of what you speak? You gotta watch what you say, or it won't be a very good day! The K.I.S.S. ~ Watch what you say!   You can't change what you don't recognize! So if you know you are endangering yourself with your words, you have to figure out what is not working to you can change and make your words work for you. 1. Identify Your Trigger Words: Begin by recognizing and acknowledging the words or phrases in your self-talk that do not serve your goals or well-being. These trigger words may include self-critical statements, limiting beliefs, or negative affirmations that undermine your confidence and motivation. By identifying these trigger words, you can become more aware of the impact they have on your thoughts and actions. Once you are aware of the specific words that hold you back, you can work towards reframing or eliminating them from your inner dialogue. 2. Rewrite Your Self-Talk: Once you have identified your trigger words, the next step is to rewrite your self-talk to align with your goals and values. Replace negative or unhelpful phrases with positive, empowering, and affirming statements that support your growth and well-being. For example, if you catch yourself saying, "I always fail at this," reframe it as, "I am capable of learning from my experiences and improving over time." By consciously choosing your words and crafting a more constructive inner dialogue, you can shift your mindset towards one that fosters self-confidence, resilience, and positive action. 3. Reflect on What You Say and Repeat: Regular reflection on your self-talk is essential for maintaining awareness and consistency in reshaping your inner dialogue. Take time to review your thoughts and words throughout the day, noting any instances where negative or counterproductive language arises. Reflect on how these statements impact your emotions, decisions, and behaviors. Celebrate moments when you successfully replace trigger words with positive affirmations and new phrases, and recognize areas where improvement is needed. Consistent reflection and correction of your self-talk, followed by repetition of positive affirmations and empowering language, will help reinforce a healthier and more supportive inner dialogue over time.

Watch what you say! Imagine calling yourself every day and telling yourself what to do. What do you sound like? Would you be empowered about what you need to do for the day? Or would you talk down to yourself, claiming all of the things that have gone wrong lately? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Life is not about the failures, but how you take the lessons learned and apply them to your daily life.  Yes, you get to choose how you show up. You get to determine how "healthy" you want to be. You can lean toward being a very health-conscious enthusiast. Or you go a little slower and figure it out along the way.  Healthy living is a daily commitment. Your thoughts connect to your actions, which tell your body what healthy looks like. For some, it's sitting on the couch, not doing much but enjoying a few chips and dip. Then you have those who want better than where they are. What do you do to stay inspired? What thoughts are leading your actions because of what you speak? You gotta watch what you say, or it won't be a very good day! The K.I.S.S. ~ Watch what you say!   You can't change what you don't recognize! So if you know you are endangering yourself with your words, you have to figure out what is not working to you can change and make your words work for you. 1. Identify Your Trigger Words: Begin by recognizing and acknowledging the words or phrases in your self-talk that do not serve your goals or well-being. These trigger words may include self-critical statements, limiting beliefs, or negative affirmations that undermine your confidence and motivation. By identifying these trigger words, you can become more aware of the impact they have on your thoughts and actions. Once you are aware of the specific words that hold you back, you can work towards reframing or eliminating them from your inner dialogue. 2. Rewrite Your Self-Talk: Once you have identified your trigger words, the next step is to rewrite your self-talk to align with your goals and values. Replace negative or unhelpful phrases with positive, empowering, and affirming statements that support your growth and well-being. For example, if you catch yourself saying, "I always fail at this," reframe it as, "I am capable of learning from my experiences and improving over time." By consciously choosing your words and crafting a more constructive inner dialogue, you can shift your mindset towards one that fosters self-confidence, resilience, and positive action. 3. Reflect on What You Say and Repeat: Regular reflection on your self-talk is essential for maintaining awareness and consistency in reshaping your inner dialogue. Take time to review your thoughts and words throughout the day, noting any instances where negative or counterproductive language arises. Reflect on how these statements impact your emotions, decisions, and behaviors. Celebrate moments when you successfully replace trigger words with positive affirmations and new phrases, and recognize areas where improvement is needed. Consistent reflection and correction of your self-talk, followed by repetition of positive affirmations and empowering language, will help reinforce a healthier and more supportive inner dialogue over time. By actively identifying trigger words, rewriting your self-talk, and engaging in ongoing reflection and practice, you can effectively change what you say to yourself and create a more positive and empowering inner dialogue. By nurturing a mindset that aligns with your goals and values, you can boost your motivation, resilience, and overall well-being on the path to personal growth and...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1250</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,fitness,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,health,holistic,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,nutrition,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/aa65850d0d1bca445f657fd224f47bd3.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3717 It's A Good Day!</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3717-it-s-a-good-day--66393637</link><description><![CDATA[Life is not always easy.

Research reveals that the connection is much deeper than you might think. And you wonder why it's been said, "What you think about, you bring about."

Delving deeper into the realms of cognitive science unravels the intricacies of this dynamic interplay between the mind and motion.<br /> <br /> Research underscores the profound influence of thoughts on actions, painting a vivid picture of how our cognitive processes transcend mere musings to spur tangible behaviors. The neural pathways forged by our thoughts sculpt a blueprint that guides our actions, often dictating the course of our lives. And you wonder why it's hard to shake bad habits to create good ones. This intricate dance between thoughts and actions forms the cornerstone of our journey towards realizing our dreams and aspirations.<br /> <br /> If you want to chart a course towards your goals and dreams, a pivotal shift in your mindset becomes imperative. It's a psychological metamorphosis—a journey that demands a recalibration of thought patterns to align with desired outcomes. Your equation must be recalibrated. The K.I.S.S. ~ Recalibrate your thought patterns!   Your life will not change unless your thoughts do. Your mind constructs the plans as to how you move forward, or not. Change is a constant. But to change your actions, it starts with your thoughts. That's when you change your life! So, how can you recalibrate your thought patterns?<br /> <br /> Here are three transformative steps to renew your mind and pave the way for harmonious actions:<br /> <br /> 1. Mindful Awareness: Cultivate a habit of mindful introspection to observe the thoughts that surface in your mind. By fostering awareness of your thought patterns, you can identify limiting beliefs and negative self-talk that impede your progress. Through mindfulness practices such as meditation and journaling, you can gain clarity on the narratives that govern your actions.<br /> <br /> 2. Build Confidence: To achieve this, infuse your mental landscape with positive affirmations that reinforce your goals and aspirations. By consciously replacing self-limiting beliefs with empowering declarations, you can instill a sense of confidence and self-belief that propels you towards action. Affirmations serve as potent tools to reprogram your subconscious mind and realign your thoughts with your desired outcomes. "You can't live in the past if you want to move forward in the future; you must be present today!" ~ Kristianne Wargo<br /> <br /> 3. Visualize Where You're Going: Engage in the practice of visualization to vividly envision your goals and the actions necessary to bring them to life. By creating mental imagery (you're painting the picture in your mind) of success and embodying the emotions associated with achieving your dreams, you prime your mind for action. Visualization serves as a powerful catalyst that bridges the gap between thought and motion, empowering you to tread the path towards your dreams with clarity and conviction.<br /> <br /> Embark on the transformative journey from mind to motion by unraveling the profound connection between your thoughts and actions. As you embrace the power of conscious thought and intentional action, you wield the keys to unlock a future brimming with limitless possibilities. Let your thoughts pave the way for transformative motions, guiding you towards your highest aspirations and wildest dreams. "Be present. Be incredible.

So, how can you recalibrate your thought patterns?<br /> <br /> Here are three transformative steps to renew your mind and pave the way for harmonious actions:<br /> <br /> 1. Mindful Awareness: Cultivate a habit of mindful introspection to observe the thoughts that surface in your mind. By fostering awareness of your thought patterns, you can identify limiting beliefs and negative self-talk that impede your progress. Through mindfulness practices such as meditation and journaling, you can gain clarity on the narratives that govern your actions.<br /> <br /> 2. Build Confidence: To achieve this, infuse your mental landscape with positive affirmations that reinforce your goals and aspirations. By consciously replacing self-limiting beliefs with empowering declarations, you can instill a sense of confidence and self-belief that propels you towards action. Affirmations serve as potent tools to reprogram your subconscious mind and realign your thoughts with your desired outcomes. "You can't live in the past if you want to move forward in the future; you must be present today!" ~ Kristianne Wargo<br /> <br /> 3. Visualize Where You're Going: Engage in the practice of visualization to vividly envision your goals and the actions necessary to bring them to life. By creating mental imagery (you're painting the picture in your mind) of success and embodying the emotions associated with achieving your dreams, you prime your mind for action. Visualization serves as a powerful catalyst that bridges the gap between thought and motion, empowering you to tread the path towards your dreams with clarity and conviction.<br /> <br /> Embark on the transformative journey from mind to motion by unraveling the profound connection between your thoughts and actions. As you embrace the power of conscious thought and intentional action, you wield the keys to unlock a future brimming with limitless possibilities. Let your thoughts pave the way for transformative...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>810</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,change,dreams,forgiveness,goals,gratitude,habits,happiness,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,relationships,thoughts,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2f38933491c66bbe5cfabe50871350ab.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3715 Know God's Will For You</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3715-know-god-s-will-for-you--66354438</link><description><![CDATA[Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.

Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2 (NIV) How are you living your life differently? Are you considered normal, or do you stand out in a crowd? As the Apostle Paul writes in his letter to the Christians in Rome, he is reminding them of what's at the core of every Christian's faith. We are to stand out and be different. We are not to conform to the patterns of this world.  Often, we find ourselves bombarded with societal pressures, cultural norms, and endless distractions that pull us away from our true purpose and our connection to God. What does your everyday life look like? Are you doing what everyone else wants, living up to the world's expectations? Or are you seeking what God desires for you? The K.I.S.S. ~ Know God's Will for you!   It's not an easy process to gain the wisdom for knowing God's will; however, a willing heart is required. If you want to live out God's purpose for you here on earth, it requires sacrifice, a deeper understanding, and faith that transcends your own understanding. "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up." ~ James 4:10 It's no longer about what everyone else wants, but who God has called you to become. You cannot point fingers and place blame on others. You must be obedient to what God requires of you and see yourself through God's eyes. It's not about what others are doing, but what you are not doing yourself.  Are you aligning with the Fruit of the Spirit and God's character? 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. ~ Galatians 5:22-23 Knowing God's Will for yourself means that you are becoming more like Him, with His attributes. You'll never be God. But He does want you to possess the character of Himself.  Get in the Word to know God more, so you can walk in His presence more frequently, and open your heart to who He wants you to become. You will never "arrive" until you meet God face to face in Heaven.  So do your part every day, and walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. ~ Psalm 118:24 "Be present. Be incredible.

But are you willing to put in the work to love deeper, so you can experience endless love? Marriage is a two-way street that requires both partners to join together in love to become better as a couple. However, endless love isn't just about feeling loved, but about actively participating in growing and nurturing the relationship. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   How does your marriage work for you now? Are you just going through the motions and keeping it so-so? Growing deeper in love requires action. You can't keep doing what you're doing if you want to be stretched and reach a deeper and more committed level of love. The length of time you've been married and the experiences you've had along the way certainly affect your marriage.  Regardless, if you desire endless love, you must commit. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your commitment!   For couples seeking to deepen their love this summer, here are three essential ways to love deeper and make a commitment to endless love:<br /> <br /> 1. Participate in Acts of Love:<br /> Love is not a passive emotion but an active choice that requires continuous effort and commitment. Love is a verb. So, get off the sidelines. Show your love through actions such as planning surprise date nights, writing heartfelt letters, or simply being present and attentive to your partner's needs. By actively participating in acts of love, you demonstrate your dedication to nurturing and strengthening your bond.<br /> <br /> 2. Cultivate Compassion and Understanding:<br /> True love thrives in an environment of compassion and understanding. Take the time to listen to your partner, empathize with their feelings, and communicate openly and honestly. Practice compassion by acknowledging and validating each other's emotions, even in challenging situations. By fostering a space of understanding and acceptance, you create the foundation for deep and lasting love.<br /> <br /> 3. Serve with a Generous Heart:<br /> Service is a powerful expression of love that goes beyond words and gestures. Make a conscious effort to serve your partner selflessly, whether it's through acts of kindness, support in their endeavors, or simply being a source of encouragement and strength. By serving with a generous heart, you not only enrich your partner's life but also strengthen the bond of love that connects you both.<br /> <br /> Endless love is not a destination but a journey of growth, self-discovery, and unwavering commitment. By actively participating, cultivating compassion, and serving with a generous heart, couples can deepen their love and make a lasting commitment to each other this summer and beyond. Love is indeed an action verb – let your actions speak volumes of the endless love you have for your sweetheart. "Be present. Be incredible.

It takes more than a village to get through what is the most awesome responsibility anyone will ever experience. Yet, with all the competition of wanting what's best for your child, it leaves little room for failure. What happened to the value of failures? And this is not about parenting failures, even though there are many of those. Failure is a natural prerequisite for achieving success. No one achieves success on the first try always. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But when you're a parent, secretly, that's all you want for your kids. What happened to paying your dues to get to the next level?<br /> <br /> Failure comes with a cost. But what cost does it gain? Success!<br /> <br /> As parents, we must let our kids make their own decisions as they grow up and expand their knowledge. Of course, parents need to give pertinent information and perspective on what they need to make better decisions. However, if parents do everything to prevent their child from failing, then what does their child gain? Parenting is a journey filled with challenges, and one of the toughest hurdles to overcome is the aversion to seeing our children fail. Failure, however, is a natural stepping stone to success, a crucial part of the learning process that cannot be overlooked. Step your kids to success, fail more! The K.I.S.S. ~ Step your kids to success, fail more!   That's what must happen; you've gotta fail more as a kid. And parents need to let that happen. In a world that often prioritizes perfection and achievement, it's easy for parents to strive for their children to succeed on the first try. But what about the lessons that failures teach us? What about the resilience, determination, and growth that come from facing setbacks?<br /> <br /> To truly nurture your children's potential and help them develop critical thinking skills, observation abilities, and a broader perspective, parents can take the following steps:<br /> <br /> 1. Encourage Independence: Allow children to make their own decisions, even if it means they might fail. Independence fosters self-reliance and empowers children to learn from their mistakes.<br /> <br /> 2. Provide Guidance, Not Solutions: Instead of solving problems for them, offer guidance and support to help children navigate challenges on their own. This promotes problem-solving skills and builds confidence.<br /> <br /> 3. Celebrate Effort, Not Just Results: Shift the focus from the outcome to the effort and progress made. Celebrate the journey, highlighting the hard work and determination rather than just the end result.<br /> <br /> By embracing failures as learning opportunities and allowing children to experience obstacles, we as parents can instill resilience, perseverance, and a healthy attitude towards setbacks in our children. Remember, the path to success is paved with failures, and it's through these struggles that true growth and learning occur. Children cannot be handed everything on a silver or platinum platter. They need to learn that hard work brings greater reward. "Be present. Be incredible.

It takes more than a village to get through what is the most awesome responsibility anyone will ever experience. Yet, with all the competition of wanting what's best for your child, it leaves little room for failure. What happened to the value of failures? And this is not about parenting failures, even though there are many of those. Failure is a natural prerequisite for achieving success. No one achieves success on the first try always. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But when you're a parent, secretly, that's all you want for your kids. What happened to paying your dues to get to the next level?<br /> <br /> Failure comes with a cost. But what cost does it gain? Success!<br /> <br /> As parents, we must let our kids make their own decisions as they grow up and expand their knowledge. Of course, parents need to give pertinent information and perspective on what they need to make better decisions. However, if parents do everything to prevent their child from failing, then what does their child gain? Parenting is a journey filled with challenges, and one of the toughest hurdles to overcome is the aversion to seeing our children fail. Failure, however, is a natural stepping stone to success, a crucial part of the learning process that cannot be overlooked. Step your kids to success, fail more! The K.I.S.S. ~ Step your kids to success, fail more!   That's what must happen; you've gotta fail more as a kid. And parents need to let that happen. In a world that often prioritizes perfection and achievement, it's easy for parents to strive for their children to succeed on the first try. But what about the lessons that failures teach us? What about the resilience, determination, and growth that come from facing setbacks?<br /> <br /> To truly nurture your children's potential and help them develop critical thinking skills, observation abilities, and a broader perspective, parents can take the following steps:<br /> <br /> 1. Encourage Independence: Allow children to make their own decisions, even if it means they might fail. Independence fosters self-reliance and empowers children to learn from their mistakes.<br /> <br /> 2. Provide Guidance, Not Solutions: Instead of solving problems for them, offer guidance and support to help children navigate challenges on their own. This promotes problem-solving skills and builds confidence.<br /> <br /> 3. Celebrate Effort, Not Just Results: Shift the focus from the outcome to the effort and progress made. Celebrate the journey, highlighting the hard work and determination rather than just the end result.<br /> <br /> By embracing failures as learning opportunities and allowing children to experience obstacles, we as parents can instill resilience, perseverance, and a healthy attitude towards setbacks in our children. Remember, the path to success is paved with failures, and it's through these struggles that true growth and learning occur. Children cannot be handed everything on a silver or platinum platter. They need to learn that hard work brings greater reward. "Be present. Be incredible.

What freedoms are you thankful for? How can we become so busy that we can't even take 90 seconds to be grateful to those who gave us this country? Our heroes who sacrificed believed so strongly that they were willing to give their lives so you and I could have our freedoms. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

His unit was pinned down by heavy enemy fire, and the mission was on the brink of collapse. Seeing his comrades in danger, PFC DeGlopper made a fateful decision. He stood up in the open, drawing the enemy's attention. Firing his weapon and absorbing countless hits, he kept the Germans occupied long enough for his platoon to maneuver and break free. He was mortally wounded, but his sacrifice saved his unit. For his bravery, PFC DeGlopper was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. His selfless act allowed his fellow soldiers to survive and continue the fight for freedom. The Mindset: PFC DeGlopper’s story highlights the power of selflessness, courage, and belief in something greater than ourselves. He chose to face almost certain death because he believed in the mission and the lives of his friends. This kind of mindset teaches us: <ul> <li>Purpose over fear: He didn’t let fear stop him because he focused on his purpose—saving others.</li> <li>Service over self: His actions were driven by what he could do for others, not for himself.</li> <li>Legacy in sacrifice: True courage creates a ripple effect, inspiring others to act bravely and selflessly in their own lives.</li> </ul> The K.I.S.S. ~ Show your gratitude!   What We Can Do to Show Our Gratitude: Memorial Day isn’t just about picnics or barbecues; it’s about honoring those who gave their all. Here’s how we can truly show our gratitude: ✅ Live with purpose: Let the memory of those who sacrificed inspire us to be better—more kind, more courageous, more willing to serve. ✅ Serve others: Whether it’s helping a neighbor, supporting veterans’ causes, or simply being there for someone in need, these acts of service honor those who died for us. ✅ Reflect and remember: Take time to learn about a fallen hero’s story, like PFC DeGlopper’s, and share it with others. Keep their memory alive. ✅ Express gratitude openly: Thank veterans and military families. Write a letter, attend a ceremony, or visit a memorial to show your respect. Who can you thank today for their service? How can you live your day, and not just today, but every day from this point on, with the heart that someone saw a future for our country before you knew?

In our fast-paced lives filled with technology, family obligations, and career pursuits, it's easy to overlook the spiritual aspect of our existence. While we strive to fulfill our own desires and obligations, we must also ponder what God's purpose is for our lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Psalm 23:3 ~ "He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake."  This verse underscores the importance of seeking rejuvenation for our spirits and aligning ourselves with God's will to lead purposeful lives.<br /> <br /> As we immerse ourselves in holiday celebrations and leisure activities, let us not neglect the essence of our being – our spirit. We are not mere spectators in life but agents of God's divine plan, tailor-made with unique gifts and callings. To live out God's purpose, we must nourish our souls and commit to honoring His desires above all else. The K.I.S.S. ~ A vacation for the soul!   Amidst the festivities and revelry, let us make a conscious effort to provide our spirits with the care and sustenance they require:<br /> <br /> 1. Intentional Rest and Reflection: Set aside moments of quiet contemplation and seek God's presence in stillness. Find solace in prayer, meditation, and reflection to rejuvenate your spirit.<br /> <br /> 2. Scriptural Guidance: Delve into the Word of God for wisdom and direction. Allow scripture to illuminate your path and inspire you to uphold His desires in your daily life.<br /> <br /> 3. Community and Fellowship: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can offer support, encouragement, and accountability on your spiritual journey. Share in the joy of worship and fellowship to invigorate your spirit.<br /> <br /> 4. Service and Purpose: Engage in acts of service and selflessness to fulfill God's purpose for your life. Seek opportunities to spread love, kindness, and compassion to others, reflecting the divine light within you.<br /> <br /> 5. Prioritize Your Relationship with God: Commit to nurturing your relationship with God above all else. Make Him the focal point of your life and allow His will to guide your actions and decisions.<br /> <br /> As we revel in the festivities of Memorial Weekend and the joys of summertime, let us not forget to embark on a sacred journey – a vacation for the soul. By tending to our spiritual well-being, we not only enrich our own lives but also honor God's purpose for us. Feast on the nourishment of His word, find solace in His presence, and commit to living out His desires in all we do. In prioritizing our spirits, we discover true abundance and fulfillment in God's divine plan and purpose for our lives. "Be present. Be incredible.

In our fast-paced lives filled with technology, family obligations, and career pursuits, it's easy to overlook the spiritual aspect of our existence. While we strive to fulfill our own desires and obligations, we must also ponder what God's purpose is for our lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Psalm 23:3 ~ "He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake."  This verse underscores the importance of seeking rejuvenation for our spirits and aligning ourselves with God's will to lead purposeful lives.<br /> <br /> As we immerse ourselves in holiday celebrations and leisure activities, let us not neglect the essence of our being – our spirit. We are not mere spectators in life but agents of God's divine plan, tailor-made with unique gifts and callings. To live out God's purpose, we must nourish our souls and commit to honoring His desires above all else. The K.I.S.S. ~ A vacation for the soul!   Amidst the festivities and revelry, let us make a conscious effort to provide our spirits with the care and sustenance they require:<br /> <br /> 1. Intentional Rest and Reflection: Set aside moments of quiet contemplation and seek God's presence in stillness. Find solace in prayer, meditation, and reflection to rejuvenate your spirit.<br /> <br /> 2. Scriptural Guidance: Delve into the Word of God for wisdom and direction. Allow scripture to illuminate your path and inspire you to uphold His desires in your daily life.<br /> <br /> 3. Community and Fellowship: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can offer support, encouragement, and accountability on your spiritual journey. Share in the joy of worship and fellowship to invigorate your spirit.<br /> <br /> 4. Service and Purpose: Engage in acts of service and selflessness to fulfill God's purpose for your life. Seek opportunities to spread love, kindness, and compassion to others, reflecting the divine light within you.<br /> <br /> 5. Prioritize Your Relationship with God: Commit to nurturing your relationship with God above all else. Make Him the focal point of your life and allow His will to guide your actions and decisions.<br /> <br /> As we revel in the festivities of Memorial Weekend and the joys of summertime, let us not forget to embark on a sacred journey – a vacation for the soul. By tending to our spiritual well-being, we not only enrich our own lives but also honor God's purpose for us. Feast on the nourishment of His word, find solace in His presence, and commit to living out His desires in all we do. In prioritizing our spirits, we discover true abundance and fulfillment in God's divine plan and purpose for our lives. "Be present. Be incredible.

As you enjoy this holiday weekend, take a moment to recommit, reflect, and reignite your love for each other. Holidays give us an excuse to make time for each other. But why do we have to wait. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   As I was sitting at dinner with my family, specifically my daughter and her boyfriend, it took me back to when my husband and I were dating. Life was mostly simple at times, until there was something at school or work, or the family needed us. The struggles were there, but didn't overtake our feelings. However, soon into the marriage, life got a little more real. Time seemed to shrink, and responsibilities seemed to grow. Oh how quick we forget the little things that we said yes to, that now, is only a bother. Oh bother!! (Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh, Disney) In marriage, we can't live our lives like Eeyore.  So instead of letting life lead, you get to lead your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reignite your love!   Back when my husband and I were dating, we wrote a ton of letters. The art of letter writing is a beautiful thing, especially when you share your deepest thoughts with the one you love most, your spouse. As let's put pen to paper, and write that love letter. And if you're wondering what to include, here are three essential elements that can breathe new life into your marriage and reignite the flame of your love.<br /> <br /> 1. Authenticity: Pour your heart out onto the page and express your true feelings without reservation. Be vulnerable, honest, and sincere in sharing your emotions, memories, and desires. Authenticity is the foundation of a deep and meaningful connection, and it allows you to truly understand and appreciate each other on a profound level.<br /> <br /> 2. Gratitude: Take this opportunity to express your appreciation for all the little things your partner does that often go unnoticed. From the way they make your morning coffee just right to the unwavering support they provide during tough times, acknowledging and thanking them for their efforts can strengthen the bond between us. Gratitude fosters a sense of mutual respect and admiration, reminding us of the countless reasons you fell in love in the first place.<br /> <br /> 3. Vision for the Future: Paint a picture of the future you envision together – full of love, joy, and shared dreams. Share your hopes, aspirations, and plans for the journey ahead, illustrating a path that you can walk hand in hand. By aligning your visions for the future, you can create a sense of unity and purpose that will guide us through the challenges and triumphs that lie ahead.<br /> <br /> Now the fun part, give your letter to your sweetheart. Let the beauty and power of your connection and your words serve as a beacon of light that takes you back to the heart of love – where your souls intertwine and your spirits dance in harmony.

Fear not! With a few savvy summertime parenting hacks, you can create all the fun you desire and keep your sanity intact. Balancing boundaries and enjoyment can be a challenge, but with the right strategies, you can make the most of the sunny season with your little ones. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   First of all, think about what you want for your family. When you look at today, where do you want to be on the last day of summer? And what I mean by this is, how do you want to grow and be stretched as a family?  Summers can be challenging because there is more time to fill with activities. But you don't have to do everything. Yet, you do need to be a family and spend time together. The K.I.S.S. ~ Spend time together!   That's where everything starts: spend time together! Summertime is not a break from school and studying, but an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with your children. No matter what you do, if spending time together is the result, that's the best summer ever. However, I know there are a few things you can do to help you get through the summer with a smile. So let's look at ten parenting hacks to help you survive and thrive during the summer months.<br /> <br /> 1. Set a Daily Routine: Establishing a daily routine can provide structure for both you and your kids. Include designated playtime, meal times, and quiet time to maintain a sense of order throughout the day.<br /> <br /> 2. Create a Summer Bucket List: Involve your children in creating a list of fun activities and adventures they want to experience during the summer. And this bucket list does not have to cost money. Yet, it gives them something to look forward to and helps prevent boredom.<br /> <br /> 3. Limit Screen Time: While it can be tempting to rely on screens for entertainment, set limits on screen time to encourage outdoor play, creativity, and family bonding.<br /> <br /> 4. Organize Weekly Outings: Plan weekly outings to parks, museums, or local attractions to break up the routine and keep things exciting for your kids.<br /> <br /> 5. Schedule "Mom/Dad Time": Prioritize self-care by scheduling regular "mom/dad time" for yourself. Whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or enjoying a cup of coffee in peace, taking care of yourself will help you recharge and be a better parent.<br /> <br /> 6. Turn Chores into Games: Get your kids involved in household chores by turning them into fun games. Make cleaning up a race or create a scavenger hunt for items that need to be put away.<br /> <br /> 7. Embrace Messy Play: Let go of the need for a perfectly clean house and embrace messy play activities like painting, water play, or baking together. The memories created will far outweigh the temporary mess.<br /> <br /> 8. Set Boundaries with Love: Establish clear boundaries with your children and enforce them with love and consistency. Consistent boundaries provide a sense of security for kids and help them understand expectations.<br /> <br /> 9. Plan Regular Family Parties: Hold weekly family parties to discuss upcoming plans, express concerns, and celebrate successes. Encouraging open communication strengthens family bonds and fosters a sense of teamwork.<br /> <br /> 10. Practice Gratitude: Encourage your children to practice gratitude by reflecting on the positive aspects of each day. Ending the day with gratitude can shift the focus from challenges to blessings. Create a Summer Gratitude &amp; Joy Jar. Then, you can revisit your memories anytime.<br /> <br /> By implementing these parenting hacks, you can navigate the summer months with ease and create lasting memories with your children. Remember, finding the balance between boundaries and fun is key to a successful summer for the whole family. "Be present. Be incredible.

Summertime is not a break from school and studying, but an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with your children. No matter what you do, if spending time together is the result, that's the best summer ever. However, I know there are a few things you can do to help you get through the summer with a smile. So let's look at ten parenting hacks to help you survive and thrive during the summer months.<br /> <br /> 1. Set a Daily Routine: Establishing a daily routine can provide structure for both you and your kids. Include designated playtime, meal times, and quiet time to maintain a sense of order throughout the day.<br /> <br /> 2. Create a Summer Bucket List: Involve your children in creating a list of fun activities and adventures they want to experience during the summer. And this bucket list does not have to cost money. Yet, it gives them something to look forward to and helps prevent boredom.<br /> <br /> 3. Limit Screen Time: While it can be tempting to rely on screens for entertainment, set limits on screen time to encourage outdoor play, creativity, and family bonding.<br /> <br /> 4. Organize Weekly Outings: Plan weekly outings to parks, museums, or local attractions to break up the routine and keep things exciting for your kids.<br /> <br /> 5. Schedule "Mom/Dad Time": Prioritize self-care by scheduling regular "mom/dad time" for yourself. Whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or enjoying a cup of coffee in peace, taking care of yourself will help you recharge and be a better parent.<br /> <br /> 6. Turn Chores into Games: Get your kids involved in household chores by turning them into fun games. Make cleaning up a race or create a scavenger hunt for items that need to be put away.<br /> <br /> 7. Embrace Messy Play: Let go of the need for a perfectly clean house and embrace messy play activities like painting, water play, or baking together. The memories created will far outweigh the temporary mess.<br /> <br /> 8. Set Boundaries with Love: Establish clear boundaries with your children and enforce them with love and consistency. Consistent boundaries provide a sense of security for kids and help them understand expectations.<br /> <br /> 9. Plan Regular Family Parties: Hold weekly family parties to discuss upcoming plans, express concerns, and celebrate successes. Encouraging open communication strengthens family bonds and fosters a sense of teamwork.<br /> <br /> 10. Practice Gratitude: Encourage your children to practice gratitude by reflecting on the positive aspects of each day. Ending the day with gratitude can shift the focus from challenges to blessings. Create a Summer Gratitude &amp; Joy Jar. Then, you can revisit your memories anytime.<br /> <br /> By implementing these parenting hacks, you can navigate the summer months with ease and create lasting memories with your children.

It's not about being perfect in healthy living, but making good choices that work for an imperfect season. 1.

This might include your mindset, daily habits, and self-care practices.

But why don't we do the obvious, like being kind or sharing a smile? All it takes is a decision to make it happen. Why not start your day happy? All too often, we wake up letting what the day "means" and where it falls in the week determine whether or not we're gonna have a good day.

Think about how you woke up today. Maybe you could ask yourself the same question as you go to bed. You can feel what you want, but you can also determine how you want to react or respond to your feelings. Just Monday is not liked by the majority of people who go to work, doesn't mean you have to dislike Monday. It's all your perspective. So why not.... The K.I.S.S. ~ Start your day happy!   As you wake up each morning, take a moment to savor the sensations of a new day. Feel the rhythm of your heartbeat, take a deep breath, and embrace the boundless possibilities that lie ahead. Instead of succumbing to negative thoughts or letting external circumstances dictate your mood, choose to show up with intention and positivity. Choose to show up with a kind smile!<br /> <br /> Why not greet the day with a smile and an open heart, ready to embrace whatever comes your way? By cultivating a mindset of gratitude and optimism, you set the stage for a day filled with joy and fulfillment. It's no longer about the outcomes or results of your circumstances.<br /> <br /> Remember, happiness is not dependent on external circumstances but rather on how we choose to perceive and respond to the world around us.

But why don't we do the obvious, like being kind or sharing a smile? All it takes is a decision to make it happen. Why not start your day happy? All too often, we wake up letting what the day "means" and where it falls in the week determine whether or not we're gonna have a good day.

Think about how you woke up today. Maybe you could ask yourself the same question as you go to bed. You can feel what you want, but you can also determine how you want to react or respond to your feelings. Just Monday is not liked by the majority of people who go to work, doesn't mean you have to dislike Monday. It's all your perspective. So why not.... The K.I.S.S. ~ Start your day happy!   As you wake up each morning, take a moment to savor the sensations of a new day. Feel the rhythm of your heartbeat, take a deep breath, and embrace the boundless possibilities that lie ahead. Instead of succumbing to negative thoughts or letting external circumstances dictate your mood, choose to show up with intention and positivity. Choose to show up with a kind smile!<br /> <br /> Why not greet the day with a smile and an open heart, ready to embrace whatever comes your way? By cultivating a mindset of gratitude and optimism, you set the stage for a day filled with joy and fulfillment. It's no longer about the outcomes or results of your circumstances.<br /> <br /> Remember, happiness is not dependent on external circumstances but rather on how we choose to perceive and respond to the world around us. Start your day happy! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

However, it can keep you from losing what you want to gain. You can make a deadline work for you, but it boils down to your excuses or goals. What is the priority? And what is that priority for you? That is what matters in the end. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Indeed, people find it easier to keep doing what they are doing because they know what to expect. It's when changes come into the picture that everything goes awry.<br /> <br /> All of a sudden, you are pushed and pulled in directions you have not experienced, leaving you with feelings that don't sit well.<br /> <br /> You are officially uncomfortable, and the retreat is even more appealing. That's where hating the calendar begins. <br /> <br /> So instead of wondering aimlessly through life with your habits, you get to make a deadline work for you! The K.I.S.S. ~ Make a deadline work for you!   Running away will not get you where you want to go. In fact, it will derail your dreams and hurt your heart. Deadlines often invoke feelings of stress and pressure, but they can also be powerful motivators when leveraged effectively. By shifting your perspective and approach, you can harness the potential of deadlines to propel you towards your goals and dreams.   Here are three strategies to make a deadline work for you:<br /> <br /> 1. Set Clear and Specific Goals: Before tackling a deadline, take the time to clearly define your goals and objectives. By breaking down your overarching goal into smaller, actionable steps, you can create a roadmap to success. Specificity is key here – the more precise your objectives, the easier it becomes to track your progress and stay on course.<br /> <br /> 2. Establish a Reward System: Rewarding yourself for meeting deadlines can provide an extra incentive to stay focused and motivated. Consider setting up a rewards system where you treat yourself to something enjoyable upon reaching certain milestones or completing tasks on time. This positive reinforcement not only boosts your morale but also cultivates a sense of achievement and progress.<br /> <br /> 3. Practice Effective Time Management: Efficient time management is essential for making deadlines work in your favor. Prioritize tasks based on their urgency and importance, allocate dedicated time slots for work, and eliminate distractions to enhance your productivity. Utilize tools such as calendars, to-do lists, and time-tracking apps to optimize your workflow and ensure that you meet your deadlines effectively.<br /> <br /> By implementing these strategies, you can transform deadlines from daunting obstacles into valuable opportunities that propel you forward.  "Be present.

Does God really hear me? Does He see what I need? Does He really care? Certainly, as you wrestle with living in an imperfect world, you want to know that God's got you, somewhere, a sign of hope. With every corner you turn and every valley you fall into, there doesn't always seem to be that hope. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Your life might look a little messy with a health crisis, a troubling child, an unsettling relationship, a questionable career path, or an aging parent. As messy as the middle is, God is right there in the middle of it with you. The Bible (Daniel 6) tells the story of Daniel and the Lion's den, illustrating how unwavering faith can lead us through the most challenging of circumstances. God sent an angel and shut the mouths of the lions. Daniel was unharmed. But I guarantee you that in the circumstance, he was probably scared, nervous, yet faithful. Just as Daniel trusted in God's protection, we too can find strength in our faith during times of difficulty. God's presence is not always flashy or dramatic - He often reveals Himself in the small, everyday moments we may overlook. What is different now is that God shows up in the blinks of your day. I like to call them the God winks in life.<br /> <br /> He is not going to strike you with lightning, show up in the burning bush. But those nudges and tugs on your heart, the turning stomach with butterflies, or the thoughts you would not have thought-- yea, that's God. The K.I.S.S. ~ A sign of hope!   When you spend time with Him and commune with Him, you are building your relationship. And that means, your faith is growing. "Walk by faith, not by sight." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7<br /> <br /> A sign of hope might be a stranger who said something to you, a neighbor who asked the right question, or your sweetheart who confirmed a thought in your head. The God winks in life are all around you. But you must believe in order to see. Walking by faith is not the tangible Moses moment with the burning bush.<br /> <br /> Yes, God is omnipresent. He is within you, God the Holy Spirit. So when your days seem darker than your nights, don't forget to look for a sign of hope. The blessings are around you. The direction you need to go is before you. But you've gotta look in order to see. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 "Be present. Be incredible.

"Walk by faith, not by sight." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7<br /> <br /> A sign of hope might be a stranger who said something to you, a neighbor who asked the right question, or your sweetheart who confirmed a thought in your head. The God winks in life are all around you. But you must believe in order to see. Walking by faith is not the tangible Moses moment with the burning bush.<br /> <br /> Yes, God is omnipresent. He is within you, God the Holy Spirit. So when your days seem darker than your nights, don't forget to look for a sign of hope. The blessings are around you. The direction you need to go is before you. But you've gotta look in order to see. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Show me the heart! Marriages would look so different. Maybe your marriage would be better off, too. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Unfortunately, we get caught up in all the hustle and bustle of the day, and we forget about what matters. What if you were to make a decision to love your spouse in a manner you've never done before? Or, if you have, you are doing it with more intentionality? I want you to think about money for a moment. Money can make a difference in your every day. But so can love. That's why you gotta show me the heart! The K.I.S.S. ~ Show me the heart!   Your spouse needs to know how much you love and care for them. Life is hard for both of you. You both are juggling careers and dreams, kids and finances, but you cannot forget about each other. It's easy to do. Been there, done that. And it really hurts a marriage. In fact, it can destroy a marriage. I don't want that for you. I want you and your spouse to grow a strong foundation that will withstand the test of time and any storm you face together. However, it must come from the heart; the place where only the two of you connect. That's where the magic happens. Yet, at the same time, we are human, and human beings have human needs.  If you want to genuinely "show me the heart," you must think about a few of these. This is what it looks like in real life. 1. Express Gratitude: Take the time to express gratitude for your spouse's presence in your life. Acknowledge their efforts, both big and small, and let them know how much you appreciate them. Gratitude can strengthen your connection and create a positive environment in your relationship.<br /> <br /> 2. Support Their Goals: Show your support for your partner's dreams and aspirations. Encourage them to pursue their passions and be their biggest cheerleader along the way. By standing by their side and helping them achieve their goals, you are showing that you believe in their potential and value their growth.<br /> <br /> 3. Actively Listen: Practice active listening when your spouse needs to talk or share their thoughts and feelings. Give them your full attention, be empathetic, and show that you truly care about what they have to say. By being present and engaged in conversations, you can strengthen your emotional connection and foster a deeper understanding of each other. BONUS: Do the Assumable! And what I mean by that is you've got to read your spouse's mind! You must be intentional on a daily basis. This takes work. You gotta pay attention to the silent whispers and looks you get. Yes, you can clarify everything. But if you are paying attention, you will know your spouse's patterns and be able to serve them the way their heart wants it. And that's their way! "There are no assumptions in marriage; love leaves clues!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Be attentive and intentional to the patterns and desires of your spouse. Incorporating these acts of service into your daily interactions can transform your relationship and bring you closer to your spouse. Show Me the Heart! That's what your spouse wants to see, hear, and feel as you choose to love unconditionally every day! "Be present. Be incredible.

It's no wonder parents walk around with the deer-in-the-headlights look. At some point, we have to let go of trying everything and join the front lines. Our kiddos need us more than they tell us.

But if you take into consideration their feelings, they might want you around more than they admit it. This is all about be presenting in your child's life.

Life is not easy when you're growing up. So, be there for your child. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be there for your child!   Rise up to the occasion on a daily basis and be there for your child! You got your invitation to be there for them when you said yes to having them, whether it be by adoption, natural birth, fostering, or mentoring. Be there or be square. Because the best thing is being well-rounded as a parent! You don't want to be that square. 1. Practice Kindness and Compassion: Parenting can be challenging, and it's crucial for parents to practice compassion and kindness toward each other and yourself. Acknowledge that it's okay to make mistakes, seek help when needed, and show self-awareness that caring matters. When you are kind, you are expressing emotional well-being and showing what needs to happen when you are compassionate for others. There's always room in your heart for more. Be that patient, present parent.  2. Celebrate Imperfection: Embrace the imperfect moments in parenting as opportunities for growth and learning. Acknowledge that mistakes and setbacks are part of the journey and focus on progress and effort rather than perfection. By modeling resilience and acceptance of imperfection, you teach your children valuable life lessons. 3. Prioritize Play and Fun: Ensure that playfulness and fun are integral parts of your parent-child interactions. Engage in playful activities, games, and creative projects that foster joy, laughter, and shared experiences. Play promotes bonding, creativity, and stress relief for both parents and children. By incorporating these practices into your parenting approach, you can actively join the front lines and become the guiding force your child needs.

So, what are you in search of today? Where do you want to travel in your day to light up your way? You are made for more. Ahhhh...Perspective! What is worth finding is worth fighting for.

You have to be willing to go for what doesn’t come easy. Easy is the road everyone travels. You’re not everyone.<br /> <br /> So you must pick up your heart, dust off what hurts and then make a statement by taking action. Ahh…perspective. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ahhhh...perspective!   As we set our sights on our dreams and aspirations, it's important to remember that the road to success is rarely linear. It's paved with obstacles, setbacks, and moments of uncertainty. But it's in these moments that our true strength and resilience shine through.<br /> <br /> Embracing challenges not as roadblocks, but as stepping stones to growth, can transform the way we approach life. Each hurdle becomes an opportunity to learn, evolve, and ultimately, become the best version of ourselves.<br /> <br /> Taking action is essential in turning our visions into reality. It's the daily choices, the small steps taken towards our goals, that ultimately lead to significant progress. By showing up consistently and doing the work, we inch closer to our dreams with each new day.<br /> <br /> And let's not forget the power of perspective in inspiring others. By embodying a positive mindset and demonstrating what's possible through our actions, we have the ability to uplift those around us and ignite a ripple effect of positivity and empowerment.<br /> <br /> So, as you embark on your journey towards a life of purpose and fulfillment, remember the magic of perspective. Choose to see the beauty amidst the chaos, the opportunity in every challenge, and the growth that comes from embracing a mindset of possibility.<br /> <br /> Your reality is a reflection of your perspective. So, take a deep breath, embrace the journey ahead with open arms, and remember: Ahhhh...perspective. "Be present. Be incredible.

Where do you want to travel in your day to light up your way? You are made for more. Ahhhh...Perspective! What is worth finding is worth fighting for. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You have to be willing to go for what doesn’t come easy. Easy is the road everyone travels. You’re not everyone.<br /> <br /> So you must pick up your heart, dust off what hurts and then make a statement by taking action. Ahh…perspective. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ahhhh...perspective!   As we set our sights on our dreams and aspirations, it's important to remember that the road to success is rarely linear. It's paved with obstacles, setbacks, and moments of uncertainty. But it's in these moments that our true strength and resilience shine through.<br /> <br /> Embracing challenges not as roadblocks, but as stepping stones to growth, can transform the way we approach life. Each hurdle becomes an opportunity to learn, evolve, and ultimately, become the best version of ourselves.<br /> <br /> Taking action is essential in turning our visions into reality. It's the daily choices, the small steps taken towards our goals, that ultimately lead to significant progress. By showing up consistently and doing the work, we inch closer to our dreams with each new day.<br /> <br /> And let's not forget the power of perspective in inspiring others. By embodying a positive mindset and demonstrating what's possible through our actions, we have the ability to uplift those around us and ignite a ripple effect of positivity and empowerment.<br /> <br /> So, as you embark on your journey towards a life of purpose and fulfillment, remember the magic of perspective. Choose to see the beauty amidst the chaos, the opportunity in every challenge, and the growth that comes from embracing a mindset of possibility.<br /> <br /> Your reality is a reflection of your perspective. So, take a deep breath, embrace the journey ahead with open arms, and remember: Ahhhh...perspective. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It takes much effort and minimal failures for you to feel good. But the mirror can be harsh, the looks can be hurtful. You're not fat, your thoughts are. Who would have ever thought this is how you love your reflection? Who would ever talk to themselves like this while they're teaching their kids about kindness? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Kindness would be great to adopt in healthy living, especially because your thoughts can be so destructive. In reality, we belittle ourselves with one brief mention, which is imprinted in our minds forever.<br /> <br /> It's no wonder change is hard.  <br /> <br /> But just because it's hard does not make it impossible. What must happen is your thoughts need to become words that echo loudly in your head and re-imprint what matters NOW!<br /> <br /> Create your now! The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now!   Speak the kind words loudly, repeating them often, blanketing your mind in that kindness, even when the harsh truth is shared.<br /> <br /> Kindness softens the sharp corners and opens the heart to accept the idea of the changes that need to be made. Once the heart and head connect, you're ready to press forward with more pizazz. <br /> <br /> That's where you get the giddy-up and go! 1. Know the Language You're Using It's challenging when you want to make changes, but you don't know what you're changing. Think of it as painting your room. If you want a new paint color on the wall, you must know how you want to feel and what you want to experience in the space. Then, you can choose the color and make the change.  Changing the color is like changing your words and what you tell yourself over and over again. Take the words you use and restructure your vocabulary so you hear words of kindness with sprinkles of unconditional love in a manner that adds hope to your change and does not deplete you. Most of the time, our minds are repeating what we've heard told directly to us and what we continue to agree with those words shared with us. Stop the madness and change your language. 2. Eliminate the Words that Fatten Your Failures Why keep playing old records that make a bigger deal of your failures than your successes? If you are living, you are going to fail. In fact, you'll fail more than you succeed. So get a little skinny, not on your failures, but on your successes. Inflate in your mind that you CAN make changes by making choices that serve your challenges more by deciding to make the change. 3. Take A.I.M. on the One Thing Trying to do too much will only slow you down. If you put too much food into your mouth, you will have difficulty chewing and swallowing, causing you to choke. That's what we do when we're biting off more than we can chew. Focus on the ONE thing that needs immediate attention and give it the attention it deserves. No one wants to be chewed out on everything they do wrong at one time. So take it bit by bit, or should we say, bite by bite, and do what matters for this week. Once you have secured the action and it keeps you motivated to keep trackin', then you can move on to the next ONE thing. Healthy living is not always about the food you put in your mouth or how much your exercise. A lot of what needs to happen is what's happening in your head, and how it connects to your heart. You are not fat, and now your thoughts will not be either. "Be present. Be incredible.

Does it lead you down the Hope Road and Persistent Alley? Or are you stuck in traffic on Control Highway? Bob Goff once said, "Embrace uncertainty. Some of the most beautiful chapters in our lives won't have a title until much later." Do you find yourself pondering the path your life is taking? Does the uncertainty of the future lead you down the road of possibilities and opportunities, or are you stuck in the frustrating traffic jam of control and predictability? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Embracing uncertainty does not equate to being lost or lacking direction. It signifies a season of growth where unanswered questions pave the way for unexpected discoveries and newfound purpose. Just because you don't know where you're headed does not mean you are less than, not enough, confused, or stuck. It might be a season where unanswered questions lead to more direction. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace uncertainty!   Don't get wrapped up in what you think you should know or what you believe others want you to do. Living a life on purpose requires you to take a chance on life and make changes in the meantime. This is the in-between, the middle, or that gap.<br /> <br /> You are not going to know everything. But yet, even without knowing, you still know. In a world that often dictates the need for clear-cut plans and defined pathways, it can be liberating to relinquish the need for certainty and embrace the unknown. Life's most profound lessons are often learned in the midst of ambiguity.<br /> <br /> Embrace uncertainty.   Release yourself from the shackles of perceived expectations and obligations. Your heart beats when you dare to step into unpredictability and chart a course uniquely your own.<br /> <br /> You may not have all the answers, and that's perfectly acceptable. There is beauty in the unfolding of life's mysteries, in the unwritten chapters that reveal themselves one page at a time.<br /> <br /> Embrace uncertainty.   Trust who you are and who you are becoming. Let God whisper in your heart and guide you towards unexplored territories. It is within this uncertainty that growth flourishes, and dreams take root.<br /> <br /> So, as you navigate the twists and turns, the ups and downs, and the all-arounds of your journey, remember to embrace uncertainty. For on the empty pages with little to no words, lies the beauty of the next chapter, with life's most extraordinary possibilities penned on your heart. "Be present. Be incredible.

Life's most profound lessons are often learned in the midst of ambiguity.<br /> <br /> Embrace uncertainty.   Release yourself from the shackles of perceived expectations and obligations. Your heart beats when you dare to step into unpredictability and chart a course uniquely your own.<br /> <br /> You may not have all the answers, and that's perfectly acceptable. There is beauty in the unfolding of life's mysteries, in the unwritten chapters that reveal themselves one page at a time.<br /> <br /> Embrace uncertainty.   Trust who you are and who you are becoming. Let God whisper in your heart and guide you towards unexplored territories. It is within this uncertainty that growth flourishes, and dreams take root.<br /> <br /> So, as you navigate the twists and turns, the ups and downs, and the all-arounds of your journey, remember to embrace uncertainty. For on the empty pages with little to no words, lies the beauty of the next chapter, with life's most extraordinary possibilities penned on your heart. "Be present. Be incredible.

What we tell ourselves and others becomes sticky in our brains. No wonder you have more problems than you do hope, because of how words shape your world. In our everyday lives, our words play a crucial role in shaping our reality. From how we talk to ourselves to how we communicate with others, language can influence our thoughts, actions, and surroundings. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Let's delve into the profound impact of words on our lives and explore how we can harness this power for positive change. Change your words, change your life!<br /> <br /> **How Words Shape Your Environment**<br /> <br /> Our choice of words can create a narrative that informs how we perceive the world around us. Research in neuroscience has shown that the language we use can directly impact our brain's processing, influencing our emotions and behavior. How you feel dictates how you act. By cultivating a vocabulary that is empowering and positive, we can construct a more optimistic and authentic reality for ourselves.<br /> <br /> **Establishing Credibility Through Language**<br /> <br /> The words we use not only shape our external environment but also establish credibility and self-perception within ourselves. Studies have indicated that positive self-talk can boost self-esteem and performance, while negative self-talk can hinder progress and create self-doubt. By consciously choosing words that inspire confidence and belief in our abilities, we can enhance our sense of self-worth and accomplishments. **Overcoming Negative Vocabulary**<br /> <br /> Many individuals struggle with negative self-talk, perpetuating a cycle of self-limiting beliefs and behaviors. By becoming aware of our internal dialogue and challenging negative thoughts, we can begin to reframe our words and beliefs in a more constructive light. This process of cognitive restructuring allows us to replace harmful language patterns with affirming and empowering vocabulary. A good friend of mine, named <a href="https://a.co/d/ckzh9dN" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Marianne Renner, wrote a book called Self-Talk</a>. One that you should pick up. She also shares the SEAR Framework: Story + Emotion + Action + Result. If we slow down enough and really pay attention to what we are saying, maybe we will hear how horribly we treat ourselves with our words. And if you are in that position, maybe you need to take a look and rewire your vocabulary. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rewire your brain!   This is where you give yourself different words to use on a daily basis. Now, you might be good with the majority of your words, but there could be a few words or phrases that need to be overhauled. <br /> <br /> Three Steps to Wordsmithing Your Life<br /> <br /> 1. Mindful Awareness: Start by paying attention to the words you use regularly, both in your interactions with others and in your internal dialogue. Notice any recurring negative or self-defeating phrases and make a conscious effort to replace them with more positive and encouraging language.<br /> <br /> 2. Affirmation Practice: Incorporate daily affirmations into your routine to rewire your brain for positivity and success. Choose affirming statements that align with your goals and values, and repeat them regularly to reinforce a mindset of confidence and resilience.<br /> <br /> 3. Build With Kindness: Words create the framework of the actions that follow. If you can be honest with kindness, that helps to handle stuff that's hurtful, whether you thought it or someone else said it. It's no longer about what is being said, but rather about what is being heard in your mind that constructs your emotional and behavioral reaction. You want to be kind in your mind; build with kindness. By transforming our vocabulary and aligning our language with our aspirations, we can harness the transformative power of words to shape a more purpose-driven and fulfilling life. Start today by becoming intentional with the language you use and witness the profound impact it can have on your mindset and environment. "Be present. Be incredible.

We complain and get into these predicaments, proclaiming that we aren't good enough. But when it comes to moms, God does not make mistakes. Yes, it's Mother's Day, celebrating those moms who have spent tireless hours caring for the family and those closest to them.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Even though this day is to honor our moms and help them feel special, quietly, moms sit in their corners wondering if they've done enough, cleaned enough, and are good enough for the family she has. How unfair are our thoughts of ourselves? So today, instead of writing a letter or reminding moms of their value, let's look at a mom chosen by God to love and care for His Son, Jesus Christ— Mary. Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, stands out in history as a woman of extraordinary faith, grace, and devotion. As we look at her life and example, we can glean insights into how we can embody the qualities of the mom we are called to be.<br /> <br /> 1. Faith in God's Plan: Despite the uncertainties and challenges she faced, Mary's unwavering faith in God's plan is a powerful reminder of the importance of trusting in God. Like Mary, we are called to surrender our fears and doubts to God, trusting that His purpose for our lives and our children's lives far exceeds our understanding.<br /> <br /> 2. Unconditional Love: Mary's love for Jesus was unconditional and sacrificial. From the moment she cradled her newborn son in a manger to witnessing His crucifixion on the cross, Mary's love remained steadfast and unwavering. As mothers, we are called to love our children with a love that knows no bounds, a love that endures through trials and triumphs, and a love that mirrors God's unfailing love for us. Moms, we are to be a reflection of God's love. The K.I.S.S. ~ God does not make mistakes!   3. Strength in Adversity: Mary's strength in the face of adversity and suffering exemplifies resilience and perseverance. Despite the hardships and challenges she encountered, Mary faced them with courage, grace, and dignity. As mothers, we too will experience trials and tribulations, but it is in those moments that our strength and character are forged, shaping us into pillars of support and fortitude for our families.<br /> <br /> 4. Nurturing Guidance: Mary's role as Jesus' mother extended beyond physical care to encompass spiritual guidance and nurturing. She raised Jesus with love, wisdom, and a deep understanding of His divine purpose. As mothers, we are entrusted with the sacred duty of nurturing our children's hearts and souls, instilling in them values, virtues, and a strong foundation of faith.<br /> <br /> 5. Humility and Obedience: Mary's humility and obedience to God's will are qualities we aspire to emulate in our own lives. Despite the uncertainties and challenges she faced, Mary submitted herself to God's plan with humility, grace, and trust. As mothers, we are called to humbly submit to God's guidance, seeking His wisdom and strength in navigating the joys and trials of motherhood.<br /> <br /> In following Mary's example, we are reminded of the profound impact a mother's love, faith, and guidance can have on the lives of her children. Let us embrace the Mary Model of Motherhood with faith, love, strength, and humility, knowing that God equips us with the grace and wisdom we need to fulfill our divine calling as mothers.

Too much of our time is spent on the things that don't matter, so we forget about what does. Sharing is my favorite. Sharing in a marriage goes beyond splitting chores or responsibilities. It means opening up your heart, your thoughts, your dreams, and your fears to your partner. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   It's about creating a deep sense of intimacy and vulnerability that strengthens the bond between two people. Couples share their joys and sorrows, triumphs and challenges, creating a safe space for each other to be fully themselves without judgment. How are you sharing in your marriage? <ul> <li>Communicate Openly: Communication is key in any relationship, but in marriage, it's crucial. Take the time to have meaningful conversations with your partner. Share your thoughts, feelings, and desires openly and honestly. Listen actively and empathetically to what your partner has to say.</li> <li>Shared Experiences: Create memories together by engaging in activities that you both enjoy. Whether it's trying a new hobby, cooking a meal together, or going on an adventure, shared experiences strengthen the connection between partners. It's these moments of togetherness that build a foundation of love and understanding.</li> <li>Support Each Other: In a marriage, it's essential to be each other's biggest cheerleader. Support your partner in their goals and aspirations, be there for them in times of need, and celebrate their successes as if they were your own.</li> </ul> Sharing in each other's triumphs and challenges creates a sense of unity and partnership that deepens the love between two people. And if you want more of this, you gotta share exponentially. The K.I.S.S. ~ Share exponentially!   This is where you don't put boundaries on the "why, when, how, where, and what" you always need in the marriage. But you open up the interaction with each other, giving you the space to share exponentially. Consider what you are doing now. What's working and what needs more intentionality?  You must start where you are to gain traction to where you want to go. What 3 things can you do as a couple do to create space for sharing?<br /> <br /> 1. Schedule Quality Time: Set aside dedicated time each day or week to be together without distractions. Whether it's a quiet dinner at home, a walk in the park, or a cozy movie night, creating space for quality time allows for meaningful conversations and shared experiences.<br /> <br /> 2. Practice Gratitude: Express appreciation for your spouse and the things they do for you. Gratitude fosters a sense of connection and positivity in a relationship, making sharing more natural and fulfilling. Plus, it helps you recognize the goodness in your marriage. Because if you're not looking, you will not find.<br /> <br /> 3. Embrace Vulnerability: Allow yourselves to be vulnerable with each other. Share your fears, insecurities, and vulnerabilities, creating a deep level of trust and intimacy in your relationship. Vulnerability is the key to authentic sharing and emotional connection.<br /> <br /> Remember, sharing is not just about dividing responsibilities in the family, like who does what, but also about dividing joys and sorrows, dreams and fears, triumphs and challenges. It's about creating a space of love, trust, this deeper intimacy where two souls can truly connect and grow together; where me becomes we. So, wake up every day ready to move the needle closer to your spouse's heart, embracing the beauty of sharing and the depth of love you will create together. "Be present. Be incredible.

Too much of our time is spent on the things that don't matter, so we forget about what does. Sharing is my favorite. Sharing in a marriage goes beyond splitting chores or responsibilities. It means opening up your heart, your thoughts, your dreams, and your fears to your partner. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   It's about creating a deep sense of intimacy and vulnerability that strengthens the bond between two people. Couples share their joys and sorrows, triumphs and challenges, creating a safe space for each other to be fully themselves without judgment. How are you sharing in your marriage? <ul> <li>Communicate Openly: Communication is key in any relationship, but in marriage, it's crucial. Take the time to have meaningful conversations with your partner. Share your thoughts, feelings, and desires openly and honestly. Listen actively and empathetically to what your partner has to say.</li> <li>Shared Experiences: Create memories together by engaging in activities that you both enjoy. Whether it's trying a new hobby, cooking a meal together, or going on an adventure, shared experiences strengthen the connection between partners. It's these moments of togetherness that build a foundation of love and understanding.</li> <li>Support Each Other: In a marriage, it's essential to be each other's biggest cheerleader. Support your partner in their goals and aspirations, be there for them in times of need, and celebrate their successes as if they were your own.</li> </ul> Sharing in each other's triumphs and challenges creates a sense of unity and partnership that deepens the love between two people. And if you want more of this, you gotta share exponentially. The K.I.S.S. ~ Share exponentially!   This is where you don't put boundaries on the "why, when, how, where, and what" you always need in the marriage. But you open up the interaction with each other, giving you the space to share exponentially. Consider what you are doing now. What's working and what needs more intentionality?  You must start where you are to gain traction to where you want to go. What 3 things can you do as a couple do to create space for sharing?<br /> <br /> 1. Schedule Quality Time: Set aside dedicated time each day or week to be together without distractions.

At some point, though, it's essential to sift through the tumbleweeds of our past and stop the spread of what is not beneficial in raising our children. Look at the conversations and interactions you've had over this week. How did you discipline your child when something went wrong? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Did you respond out of spite, or were you calm in your approach to understand the situation at hand? Unfortunately, a lot of parents practice reactive parenting and not proactive parenting. We hit the nail on the head when something happens, instead of forecasting how we want our children to grow up in the world, setting them up for success as they enter adulthood. Plus, if you haven't figured it out already, raising kids is not easy! It takes SO MUCH work!! But what happens is when we are in a disagreement or our kiddos have done something wrong or incorrect (in your opinion), that's the only time we jump up and make a declaration. Parents, you need to check how you parent. Do not take their voices from them. Telling your children they cannot tell you "no" only sets them up for many failures to come in the future. You want your child to speak up. Now, the tone they use or their approach might be more of what you want to focus on. But not taking their voice. They, too, need to be heard, just as you do. Maybe you were raised this way, in that no one is to say NO. But how does that serve your purpose in the long run for your child? If your child is being hurt, don't you want them to be strong enough to say NO?  This is only one example. There are so many generational habits for discipline that we could talk about. But what I want today for you, Mom, is to reflect on how you parent, and make sure you are not continuing generational habits that do not support your child's mental, physical, psychological, and emotional development. If you think there might be a few, then all you do is break the cycle. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the cycle!   As a parent, breaking away from generational habits in parenting can be the key to raising well-adjusted and emotionally healthy children. Here are three things you can do to change your parenting approach and break the cycle.<br /> <br /> 1. Reflect on Your Own Upbringing<br /> Take time to reflect on your own upbringing and the parenting style you were exposed to. Consider what worked well and what didn't. Keep in mind that you will remember things differently than what happened as a child, because they are childhood memories. So, your reflection might need to involve your family to understand the specifics of what you're searching for. Recognizing patterns from past generations can help you identify areas for improvement and change. Then, you get to decide how you want to raise your children. <br /> <br /> 2. Seek Out New Parenting Resources<br /> Don't be afraid to seek out new parenting resources and information that align with your values and beliefs. There are so many opportunities for you to gain knowledge, get clarity, and understand your options to best train up your child. For example, attend parenting workshops, read books by experts in child psychology, or join parent support groups to gain fresh perspectives on effective parenting strategies. Remember, just because the resource is mentioned or noted, be sure you do your own research and what's best for your family's values.<br /> <br /> 3. Practice Present Parenting<br /> This is a practice of mindfulness in your parenting approach by staying present and engaged with your child. Actions speak louder than words. So even in the silence, they are watching. Be conscious of your reactions and responses, taking the time to listen actively and empathize with your child's feelings. By being intentional and paying attention, you can break the cycle of reactive parenting and cultivate a more positive and nurturing relationship with your child.<br /> <br /> By taking proactive steps to break generational habits in parenting, you can create a nurturing and supportive environment for your children to thrive in, fostering strong bonds and healthy emotional development.

It's not about being self-centered or boastful, but about honoring that God created you and embracing the journey with resilience and determination. Challenges will come your way, but how you respond to them is what truly matters. While it's essential to care for those around you, it's equally important to care for yourself. Don't neglect your own needs in the pursuit of meeting others' expectations. You were intricately designed for a unique purpose, and it's vital to nurture that purpose with love and dedication. Your life is a canvas, waiting for you to paint it with vibrant colors and bold strokes. Embrace who you are now, but don't give up on who you are becoming.  The K.I.S.S. ~ How can you not?

Don't minimize what you need to maximize. You were created on purpose, for a purpose.<br /> <br /> You get to show up in the manner that feeds your soul. Now, yes, you still have responsibilities. But that doesn't mean you push yourself to the side and leave behind the calling God has placed on your heart.<br /> <br /> This is your day to shine. Love who you are.

Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Every day is a gift, an opportunity to seize the moment and live life to its fullest. It's not about being self-centered or boastful, but about honoring that God created you and embracing the journey with resilience and determination. Challenges will come your way, but how you respond to them is what truly matters. While it's essential to care for those around you, it's equally important to care for yourself. Don't neglect your own needs in the pursuit of meeting others' expectations. You were intricately designed for a unique purpose, and it's vital to nurture that purpose with love and dedication. Your life is a canvas, waiting for you to paint it with vibrant colors and bold strokes. Embrace who you are now, but don't give up on who you are becoming.  The K.I.S.S. ~ How can you not?   Sometimes our headspace is not the best space. It clouds our judgment, where the fires of others become our everyday priorities.<br /> <br /> Other people do matter in life, but so do you! Don't minimize what you need to maximize. You were created on purpose, for a purpose.<br /> <br /> You get to show up in the manner that feeds your soul. Now, yes, you still have responsibilities. But that doesn't mean you push yourself to the side and leave behind the calling God has placed on your heart.<br /> <br /> This is your day to shine. Love who you are. Be the person you are becoming because it's hard to stay the person you are.<br /> <br /> You got this because God's got you! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We all desire positive change, but making it stick requires one key element: make it easy to say YES! Because, quite frankly, we have so much going on that we get caught up in what everyone else wants and we forget about what we need, especially when it comes to our health. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   And for whatever reason, we always seem to be okay with putting ourselves on the back burner and doing what everyone else desires.  At what point are you going to look at yourself in the mirror, with NO condescending comments about how you look or feel, and make a commitment to YOU? "If you don't put yourself in the shoes of where you want to go, you will stay planted where you are now." ~ Kristianne Wargo Nothing will change-- unless you have a 911 moment. You visit with your doctor and get results from a lab test. You get sick enough that other people have to do the basics in life for you and your family. You don't want to wait for a crisis to awaken your soul, to the point where your head has to get in the game of making changes. As I was in line picking up a prescription, I noticed how long the line was and that it wrapped around the building. And the car two vehicles ahead of me had their window cracked, only to have smoke coming out like a chimney. Really?!? Now, of course, I don't know the whole story. But if you are getting a prescription, I don't think smoking should be part of your indulgence. Your body is worth more. You were created on purpose, for a purpose. Regardless of your history and upbringing, you are cherished and called beloved by God. You are not an accident.  You are worthy to be cared for and loved! So instead of making excuses and believing lies you keep repeating to yourself, make it easy to say YES!! The K.I.S.S. ~ Make it easy to say YES!   YES-- to who you are and who you are becoming. YES-- to living a life worthy of enriching nutrients that fuel your body. YES-- to intentional activities that keep you moving and physically balanced inside and out. YES-- to hydrating from the inside out with water that will awaken your cells. YES-- to you! But what is your hesitation? What are your excuses in this season? What is holding your YES captive and letting NO lead the way? I want you to really think about where you are today, and if this is where you know you are supposed to be. If there is any question, you know changes need to occur. Don't wait for the cookie to crumble! You are made for more! So, how can we make the transition into a genuine transformation that will stick for longer than 72 hours? Here are three key strategies to help you pave the way towards a healthier lifestyle: 1. Simple Preps:<br />   - Take the time to plan and prepare your meals and snacks in advance. By having healthy options readily available, you are more likely to stay on track and avoid grabbing convenient yet unhealthy choices when hunger strikes. Prep ingredients ahead of time, batch cook meals, and portion out snacks to streamline your eating habits. 2. Simple Swaps: <br />   - Incorporate small changes into your routine that are easy to implement. Replace sugary drinks with water infused with fruit for a refreshing alternative. Swap out unhealthy snacks with nutritious options like nuts, seeds, or fresh fruit to satisfy cravings while nourishing your body. Park your car further away at the store so you get more steps. <br /> <br /> 3. Simple Grabs:<br />   - Surround yourself with what matters: connection with like-minded individuals who support your journey towards a healthier lifestyle, an easy workout when you didn't sleep well, or water that you can have with no thought needed. The simple grabs help when you are tempted by your old habits. And if you can get a win from a simple grab, you stay motivated for the next moment to create your now. <br /> <br /> By following these three steps, you can set yourself up for success and make it easier to say YES to a healthier lifestyle. Remember, change takes time and consistency, so be patient with yourself and celebrate each small victory along the way. With determination and a positive mindset, you can create lasting habits that will benefit your health and well-being in the long run. "Be present. Be incredible.

Why do you give more hours to something you can't change? What you have is here and now; let go so you can grow.  When we are trying to live out our dreams and discover our purpose in life, somehow we forget that the past matters more than the present, or even the future.

If you want to grow God's way, you have to let go. The K.I.S.S. ~ Let go so you can grow!   Because if you continue to hold tight onto the past, you neglect the beauty of the present and the endless possibilities of the future. Letting go is not just a choice; it's a masterpiece in motion where growth, self-discovery, and becoming who you are created to be shine brightly.<br /> <br /> Here are three transformative steps to release the past and embrace the journey of becoming the person God desires you to be:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Forgiveness: Holding onto grudges, resentment, and bitterness only poisons your spirit and hinders your growth. To truly let go and move forward, practice forgiveness – not just toward others but toward yourself as well. Release the burden of past mistakes and choose to forgive, allowing healing and freedom to enter your heart.<br /> <br /> 2. Cultivate Mindfulness: Embrace the power of mindfulness to anchor yourself in the present moment. By being fully aware of your thoughts, emotions, and surroundings, you can let go of the grip the past has on you. Mindfulness allows you to detach from negative patterns of thinking and open yourself up to new opportunities and possibilities. Change is a constant, and growth is a choice.<br /> <br /> 3. Embrace Surrender: Surrendering control and trusting in what God has for you can be very freeing. Letting go of the need to micromanage every aspect of your life and instead surrendering to God's plan can lead to immense growth and transformation. Trust in the journey laid out before you, have faith that all things work together for your good, and release the need to constantly fight against the current.<br /> <br /> When you give yourself permission to practice forgiveness, cultivate mindfulness, and embrace surrender, you pave the way for personal growth, spiritual awakening, and alignment with God's divine purpose designed for you. Letting go is not a sign of weakness but a demonstration of strength and faith in the journey ahead. Release the past, embrace the present, and watch yourself grow into the person you are becoming in the future. This is your day to shine brightly! "Be present. Be incredible.

Why do you give more hours to something you can't change?

Yet, as believers and Christians, waiting on the Lord is not passive but a powerful act of trust and surrender. Are you one who will stay lost, or will you live while you wait? Most of the time, we work for the results and not the relationship. But as people of faith, it's about anchoring your identity in God's promises and embracing each moment with purpose, hope, and courage regardless of the outcomes. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   It’s about anchoring our identity in God's promises and embracing each moment with purpose, hope, and courage. But we know that's easier said than done. Because why not cling to the results and outcomes? Why not live for what we want? In the waiting, it's not about our junk. It's about remembering whose you are. As Isaiah 40:31 reminds us, "But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." Our waiting is not in vain, as you renew your spirit and trust in the unwavering love of your Heavenly Father. The only choice that makes sense is to live while you wait. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live while you wait!   The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? ~ Psalm 27:1 (KJV) When do you want to grow up and be honest with yourself? You can't keep doing what you are doing if you want the life God has designed for you. That means your trust has to be greater than your fears. Your hope has to be in God, who controls all, not in your own strength. "For we walk by faith, not by sight." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7 Other translations  for 2 Corinthians 5:7 say, "For we live by faith, not by sight." Whether you walk or live by faith, you need to do it God's way. Our way only gets in His way. So as you are waiting for what God has for you, have a willing mind, body, and spirit to take the next step closest to you. One decision leads to the next step. And when you are building your relationship with God, the earthly results you are searching for are not important.  Will you live while you wait? Hopefully, by being willing to take the next step, you will trust more and more that walking by faith does not have all the answers, but trusting that God's always got you, regardless of the results. Nothing is impossible! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

While supporting each other's dreams and aspirations is essential, nurturing your spouse's mental health is equally vital for a thriving marriage. We tend to forget that a marriage takes two to tango. And that means, when your spouse hurts, you hurt. But if all we do is focus on ourselves and don't really "see" our spouse, we can miss what's right in front of us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   There are so many things that come up in marriage that directly or indirectly affect our mental well-being. But if we don't stop to recognize or take mental note, we keep loading the trucks and living our habits. Couples may struggle to openly communicate their feelings and thoughts, leading to misunderstandings and emotional distance. And if you are hiding emotions, they are not the good ones that hang around. It's the destructive emotions that keep you on the ground.  Then, you interject the fear of how your spouse sees you, like being judged or criticized, which in itself hinders them from sharing their innermost thoughts or emotions. It can get a little bit wacky! And we're not finished yet. What about all that past baggage that you and your spouse are carrying. Past experience or unresolved issues can create barriers to honest and open communication, leading to a mix of realities. That's destructive to a person and to the marriage. <br /> <br /> Just because life is crazy and the chaos has more of our attention, doesn't mean that you discount your sweetheart! You must stay in tune with where your spouse is emotionally, or you will have a totally different situation to deal with.  Don't let the demands of work, family, and daily responsibilities create a wedge or even a mountain that you all can't overcome. It's time to be intentionally on the marriage you really desire and that comes with the mental health of your spouse. When you create mindful moments to prioritize mental well-being in your marriage, you can then strengthen your emotional bond and promote a deeper sense of connection, a stronger marriage. So if you want a thriving marriage, take time and look at the mind. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take time and look at the mind!   If your excuses are all about how busy you are, what you still have to do, and what the kids need, you are missing the most important person: your spouse. Take the time and look at the mind. And that's their mind, and yours. What does it look like to foster a supportive environment for your partner's mental health?<br /> <br /> 1. Sit 'n Listen: Set aside regular time to sit and truly listen to your spouse without judgment or distractions. Show empathy and validation for their feelings and experiences. The goal needs to be to create a safe space for honest conversations about how they are feeling. Encourage your partner to share their thoughts, concerns, and needs without fear of criticism. You need to be there to hold them up, not keep score of their wrongs!<br /> <br /> 2. Be Intentional in the Silence: You have a greater effect on your spouse with what is not shared, and what your body and looks say. If you are mad, watch out how your face shows it. Your spouse sees more than what you say. And the same goes for you, right? You see more than what your spouse says. So be intentional in the silence and be kind to those who are in front of you!<br /> <br /> 3. Wrap Your Spouse in Gratitude: Think of it as the grateful hug. Express your gratitude for your sweetheart's support and care, and acknowledge the effort they put into maintaining their mental health. Small gestures of appreciation can go a long way in strengthening your bond.<br /> <br /> Remember, creating mindful moments for mental well-being in your marriage is an ongoing process that requires patience, understanding, and love. By prioritizing each other's mental health and well-being, you can build a resilient and supportive relationship that stands the test of time. "Be present. Be incredible.

While supporting each other's dreams and aspirations is essential, nurturing your spouse's mental health is equally vital for a thriving marriage. We tend to forget that a marriage takes two to tango. And that means, when your spouse hurts, you hurt. But if all we do is focus on ourselves and don't really "see" our spouse, we can miss what's right in front of us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   There are so many things that come up in marriage that directly or indirectly affect our mental well-being. But if we don't stop to recognize or take mental note, we keep loading the trucks and living our habits. Couples may struggle to openly communicate their feelings and thoughts, leading to misunderstandings and emotional distance. And if you are hiding emotions, they are not the good ones that hang around. It's the destructive emotions that keep you on the ground.  Then, you interject the fear of how your spouse sees you, like being judged or criticized, which in itself hinders them from sharing their innermost thoughts or emotions. It can get a little bit wacky! And we're not finished yet. What about all that past baggage that you and your spouse are carrying. Past experience or unresolved issues can create barriers to honest and open communication, leading to a mix of realities. That's destructive to a person and to the marriage. <br /> <br /> Just because life is crazy and the chaos has more of our attention, doesn't mean that you discount your sweetheart! You must stay in tune with where your spouse is emotionally, or you will have a totally different situation to deal with.  Don't let the demands of work, family, and daily responsibilities create a wedge or even a mountain that you all can't overcome. It's time to be intentionally on the marriage you really desire and that comes with the mental health of your spouse. When you create mindful moments to prioritize mental well-being in your marriage, you can then strengthen your emotional bond and promote a deeper sense of connection, a stronger marriage. So if you want a thriving marriage, take time and look at the mind. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take time and look at the mind!   If your excuses are all about how busy you are, what you still have to do, and what the kids need, you are missing the most important person: your spouse. Take the time and look at the mind. And that's their mind, and yours. What does it look like to foster a supportive environment for your partner's mental health?<br /> <br /> 1. Sit 'n Listen: Set aside regular time to sit and truly listen to your spouse without judgment or distractions. Show empathy and validation for their feelings and experiences. The goal needs to be to create a safe space for honest conversations about how they are feeling. Encourage your partner to share their thoughts, concerns, and needs without fear of criticism. You need to be there to hold them up, not keep score of their wrongs!<br /> <br /> 2. Be Intentional in the Silence: You have a greater effect on your spouse with what is not shared, and what your body and looks say. If you are mad, watch out how your face shows it. Your spouse sees more than what you say. And the same goes for you, right? You see more than what your spouse says. So be intentional in the silence and be kind to those who are in front of you!<br /> <br /> 3. Wrap Your Spouse in Gratitude: Think of it as the grateful hug. Express your gratitude for your sweetheart's support and care, and acknowledge the effort they put into maintaining their mental health. Small gestures of appreciation can...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>840</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,health,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,presence,psychology,purpose,reconciliation,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/9ca3ab9e9f16f6d80dfeb12978fe7b26.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3685 Your YES Makes All the Difference</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3685-your-yes-makes-all-the-difference--65859215</link><description><![CDATA[As parents, navigating the many decisions that shape our children's lives is a constant challenge. From setting boundaries to granting permissions, we carry the weight of molding our children into responsible, compassionate individuals. But amidst the sea of no's, your yes makes all the difference. For every moment we have to say no – whether it's to a request for a late-night sleepover or an extra scoop of ice cream – there is an opportunity to say yes in a different way. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   It’s about more than just the answer; it's about the attention we pay to our children.<br /> <br /> In a world where our children are surrounded by friends, teachers, and mentors, our yes holds a unique power. It signifies that we see them, that we hear them, and that we value their wants and needs. It's about being present in their lives in a way that goes beyond permission or denial. So, how can we as parents ensure that our yes is truly impactful, beyond the words themselves? See, so they achieve! The K.I.S.S. ~ See, so they achieve!   Keep in mind: This has nothing to do with being the best or perfect, or having received awards and recognition in life, for example, at school. It's all about how you recognize their presence so they know you are present. Here are three key things:<br /> <br /> 1. Be Present: Put down the phone, step away from the screen, and give your child your full attention. Engage in meaningful conversations, look in their eyes, listen actively, and show that you are there for them in mind, body, and spirit. Your body language speaks more than your words. Don't pretend that you are paying attention when you might be drifting off into another iCloud.<br /> <br /> 2. Empathize: Understand that your child's requests, no matter how small or trivial they may seem, are important to them. Empathize with their feelings, validate their experiences, and show that you care about what matters to them. Ensure your child knows that you understand how they feel.<br /> <br /> 3. Connect: Look for opportunities to bond with your child, whether it's through shared activities, quality time together, or simply being there when they need you. Establish a solid foundation of trust and understanding that extends beyond mere responses and resonates on a deeper level.<br /> <br /> Ultimately, it's not about always saying yes, but about making your yes meaningful. By recognizing the power of attention over answers, you can truly make a difference in your children's lives. So, the next time you're faced with a request, remember that your 'yes' makes all the difference — a powerful tool for connection, compassion, and an extension of your love. "Be present.

We convince ourselves how this or that can work for the better. However, once you examine the facts, the season you're in, and what you need, the thoughts in your head do not always make sense. How can you clear the clutter to change your body? In a world filled with distractions and noise, it's easy to fall into the trap of believing that what sounds good in our minds will automatically lead to positive outcomes for our bodies. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   However, the truth is far more complex. Our bodies have their language, their needs, and their unique way of communicating with us. To truly make lasting changes and achieve optimal health, it's essential to tune in and listen to what our bodies are telling us. However, you must first decide to clear the clutter. The K.I.S.S. ~ Clear the clutter! And it's not any clutter. It's all the stuff that you keep gathering year after year; all the failures and successes. There you find an overwhelming amount of stuff that holds you back. You are weighed down, not by a number, but by the stuff that claims your heart and attention. So, how do you escape the mess you put yourself in? Here are three practical steps to help you clear the clutter and start making mindful choices for your body: 1. Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to how your body reacts to different foods, activities, and environments. Keep a journal to track your energy levels, digestion, mood, and other vital signs. For example, if you notice that you feel sluggish after eating a particular type of food, consider cutting it out or reducing your intake. By fine-tuning your diet and lifestyle based on your body's feedback, you can create a tailored approach that works best for you. 2. Prioritize You: You must take care of yourself. Make self-care a non-negotiable part of your daily routine. This could include activities such as meditation, journaling, exercise, spending time in nature, or simply taking a break to relax and recharge. By investing in yourself, you not only foster a deeper connection with your body but also reduce stress, improve mental clarity, and enhance overall well-being. Remember, you taking care of you is not selfish; it's a vital component of maintaining a healthy body and mind. 3. Establish Healthy Habits: Instead of following fleeting trends or quick fixes, focus on creating sustainable and healthy habits that support your long-term well-being. This could involve meal prepping, staying hydrated, getting enough sleep, and finding ways to stay active that you genuinely enjoy. By integrating these habits into your daily life, you create a solid foundation for a healthier body and a happier you. In the end, remember that change takes time, patience, and a willingness to listen to your body's wisdom. Embrace the journey, trust the process, and honor your body.

It whispers doubts in our ears, paints worst-case scenarios in our minds, and fills us with a sense of unease. But what if, instead of retreating in the face of fear, we were to step forward with courage and conviction, knowing that fear is simply a companion on our journey, not a hindrance?<br /> <br /> It's true that stepping into the unknown can be daunting.

You are created for such a time as this, for this adventure of a lifetime that beckons you forward. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fear is your friend!   As you navigate the path ahead, remember that fear is not a sign of weakness, but a reminder of your humanity.

However, just like a house needs a sturdy base to stand strong, our aspirations require a stable groundwork to support our growth and success; build the foundation first. A house cannot serve you well if there is no foundation to keep everything stable. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Imagine what it would be like to build your house on sand versus on solid rock. It would be a little awkward to have your house shift as you cook your dinner, eventually having one side five inches lower than the other part of the house.<br /> <br /> Sometimes we bite off more than we can chew. We expect things to fall into place, but that's not going to happen. Life doesn't work that way. We continue to work diligently to get things done. But with the pile up, there you have it. The shift occurs, the foundation is shaken, and the fall begins. At some point, you have to make a decision to make some changes that build the foundation first. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build the foundation first!   Here are three essential steps to prioritize building the foundation first, in both identity and personal growth:<br /> <br /> 1. Self-Reflection and Clarity: Take the time to reflect on who you are, your values, strengths, and weaknesses. Understanding yourself on a deeper level provides clarity on where you want to go and what steps you need to take to get there. By knowing your foundation, you can confidently navigate towards your aspirations.<br /> <br /> 2. Set S.M.A.R.T Goals: Define specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals that align with your vision. Building a foundation involves setting the right framework for your ambitions. Break down your goals into actionable steps, creating a roadmap that guides you towards your desired destination.<br /> <br /> 3. Continuous Learning and Adaptation: Growth is a dynamic process that requires ongoing learning and adaptation. Embrace challenges as opportunities for learning, and be open to adjusting your strategies along the way. Building a strong foundation means being resilient, adaptable, and willing to evolve as you progress towards your goals.<br /> <br /> Remember, nothing is impossible when you commit to building your foundation first. By taking intentional steps towards self-discovery, goal setting, and continual growth, you pave the way for your dreams to flourish and stand the test of time. "Be present. Be incredible.

However, just like a house needs a sturdy base to stand strong, our aspirations require a stable groundwork to support our growth and success; build the foundation first. A house cannot serve you well if there is no foundation to keep everything stable. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Imagine what it would be like to build your house on sand versus on solid rock. It would be a little awkward to have your house shift as you cook your dinner, eventually having one side five inches lower than the other part of the house.<br /> <br /> Sometimes we bite off more than we can chew. We expect things to fall into place, but that's not going to happen. Life doesn't work that way. We continue to work diligently to get things done. But with the pile up, there you have it. The shift occurs, the foundation is shaken, and the fall begins. At some point, you have to make a decision to make some changes that build the foundation first. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build the foundation first!   Here are three essential steps to prioritize building the foundation first, in both identity and personal growth:<br /> <br /> 1. Self-Reflection and Clarity: Take the time to reflect on who you are, your values, strengths, and weaknesses. Understanding yourself on a deeper level provides clarity on where you want to go and what steps you need to take to get there. By knowing your foundation, you can confidently navigate towards your aspirations.<br /> <br /> 2. Set S.M.A.R.T Goals: Define specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals that align with your vision. Building a foundation involves setting the right framework for your ambitions. Break down your goals into actionable steps, creating a roadmap that guides you towards your desired destination.<br /> <br /> 3. Continuous Learning and Adaptation: Growth is a dynamic process that requires ongoing learning and adaptation. Embrace challenges as opportunities for learning, and be open to adjusting your strategies along the way. Building a strong foundation means being resilient, adaptable, and willing to evolve as you progress towards your goals.<br /> <br /> Remember, nothing is impossible when you commit to building your foundation first. By taking intentional steps towards self-discovery, goal setting, and continual growth, you pave the way for your dreams to flourish and stand the test of time. "Be present. Be incredible.

No matter where you are in the rumblings of your life, God's grace is sufficient. You don't have to be perfect to be seen or heard. God's got you! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But why do we feel so empty and torn that we don't even understand how we can rise up when we fall? My friend, it's not about your strength, but about God's. Your failures do not define how God sees or hears you! You don't have to prove anything for love. God gives it unconditionally because He loved us first. Now, when you say it out loud, it really does sound a little strange. If you're married, you know what it's like to have your spouse be mad at you and not pay attention to or want to be around you. Your mistakes and mishaps do not slam the door of God's heart in your face, as they can with your spouse. Instead, God leans in a little closer. He says, Come as you are! The K.I.S.S. ~ God's grace is sufficient!   So why do you think you have to prove something? Seriously? What is keeping you from understanding the importance of accepting the grace that God gives, and stop pretending you have to do it right? Perfection does not get you closer to God. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, we are reminded that His provision exceeds our understanding, and His power is made perfect in our weakness. By placing our trust in Him, we can find the strength to persevere, knowing that He is our ultimate source of comfort and support. You are not alone. You do not have to live a life in fear, doubt, and shame thinking that God looks at your differently. He loves you for who you are and who you are becoming. So stop running and closing the door to your heart.  Take a bold step and pause for a moment. Let time be on your side to have chit-chat with God and share with Him what you are concerned about.  Yes, God knows all, but He wants to do life with you. So— let Him and begin again. There are new mercies every morning.  "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24 "Be present. Be incredible.

You must wake up every morning ready to say "I do" today. Love is a verb and requires you to choose daily. But what if you're not number one to your spouse? Life has cycles and seasons. Some are good and some are bad. But most are lived without intention unless it's required of you.<br /> <br /> We put out the fires of others, and the seasons prompt us to shift accordingly. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Life isn't supposed to be fair, but when it comes to your marriage, most hope they are number one and a priority.  However, let's be real. There are those times when you can't be number one. And you've gotta remember that it goes both ways. When life presents challenges and responsibilities, it's easy to lose sight of each other's needs and priorities. Plus,it may not be so much that your spouse doesn't care, but more so the responsibilities in the season. Consider the birth of a new child, building or changing your career, medical diagnoses, extended family situations, and the child's various stages of life. There are many variations of what can become a priority or a necessity to "make it through" difficult circumstances, but that doesn't mean your spouse, or even you, doesn't love you. But in reality, that's just what you feel. And it's important to honor and recognize those feelings; however, don't hang out with them in a manner that can foster bitterness and begin the downward spiral in your marriage. If you find yourself experiencing a lack of priority from your spouse, or maybe you are not prioritizing your spouse, then take a moment to intentionally turn things around. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn things around!   That's what you have to remember: you have a choice to make a decision about how you show up every day in your marriage. If you want to navigate these treacherous waters in your marriage, hang on, because you can turn things around. Here are three actionable steps to help turn things around when you're not feeling like you're number one in your spouse's life: 1. Love Language Exploration: Discover each other's love languages and actively incorporate them into your daily interactions. Whether it's acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or receiving gifts, understanding and catering to each other's love language can deepen emotional connections and reignite intimacy. The book by Gary Chapman, The Five Love Languages, is a great resource. 2. Adventure Together: Step out of your comfort zone and try new experiences together. Whether it's exploring a new hobby, embarking on a spontaneous road trip, or taking a cooking class, shared adventures can create lasting memories and strengthen the bond between partners. 3. Gratitude Practice: Cultivate a habit of gratitude within your relationship. Take time each day to express appreciation for each other's efforts, qualities, and presence in your life. A gratitude journal, daily affirmations, or simply verbal expressions of thankfulness can foster a sense of mutual respect and admiration. 4. Couples Counseling: Consider seeking the guidance of a professional couples therapist to navigate through challenges and improve communication. Therapy sessions can provide a safe space for both partners to express their feelings, work through conflicts, and gain valuable insights into improving the relationship dynamics. 5. Physical Touch Rituals: Create rituals of physical touch that foster intimacy and connection. Whether it's holding hands during evening walks, cuddling before bed, or sharing regular hugs throughout the day, physical touch can communicate love and support non-verbally, strengthening the emotional bond between partners. 6. Surprise Gestures: Surprise your partner with thoughtful gestures that show your love and appreciation. It could be leaving a heartfelt note in their bag, preparing their favorite meal, or organizing a surprise date night. Small acts of kindness and thoughtfulness can make your partner feel valued and cherished. 7. Shared Goals and Dreams: Align your visions for the future and set shared goals as a couple. Whether it's planning a travel adventure, saving for a common financial goal, or pursuing a joint passion project, working together towards a shared vision can foster a sense of unity and purpose in your relationship. 8. Mindfulness Practice: Incorporate mindfulness practices into your daily routine as a couple. Whether it's meditating together, practicing deep breathing exercises, or simply being present in the moment during shared activities like eating dinner together, mindfulness can enhance emotional awareness, reduce stress, and improve communication within the relationship. Be creative in your marriage by approaching life's challenges in innovative ways. Think outside the box and do what works for you all as a couple and as a family. You can make it through these, what feels like, obtrusive seasons in your marriage, so long as you are intentional, kind, and serve with forgiveness. "Be present. Be incredible.

Love is a verb and requires you to choose daily. But what if you're not number one to your spouse? Life has cycles and seasons. Some are good and some are bad. But most are lived without intention unless it's required of you.<br /> <br /> We put out the fires of others, and the seasons prompt us to shift accordingly. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Life isn't supposed to be fair, but when it comes to your marriage, most hope they are number one and a priority.  However, let's be real. There are those times when you can't be number one. And you've gotta remember that it goes both ways. When life presents challenges and responsibilities, it's easy to lose sight of each other's needs and priorities. Plus,it may not be so much that your spouse doesn't care, but more so the responsibilities in the season. Consider the birth of a new child, building or changing your career, medical diagnoses, extended family situations, and the child's various stages of life. There are many variations of what can become a priority or a necessity to "make it through" difficult circumstances, but that doesn't mean your spouse, or even you, doesn't love you. But in reality, that's just what you feel. And it's important to honor and recognize those feelings; however, don't hang out with them in a manner that can foster bitterness and begin the downward spiral in your marriage. If you find yourself experiencing a lack of priority from your spouse, or maybe you are not prioritizing your spouse, then take a moment to intentionally turn things around. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn things around!   That's what you have to remember: you have a choice to make a decision about how you show up every day in your marriage. If you want to navigate these treacherous waters in your marriage, hang on, because you can turn things around. Here are three actionable steps to help turn things around when you're not feeling like you're number one in your spouse's life: 1. Love Language Exploration: Discover each other's love languages and actively incorporate them into your daily interactions. Whether it's acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or receiving gifts, understanding and catering to each other's love language can deepen emotional connections and reignite intimacy. The book by Gary Chapman, The Five Love Languages, is a great resource. 2. Adventure Together: Step out of your comfort zone and try new experiences together. Whether it's exploring a new hobby, embarking on a spontaneous road trip, or taking a cooking class, shared adventures can create lasting memories and strengthen the bond between partners. 3. Gratitude Practice: Cultivate a habit of gratitude within your relationship. Take time each day to express appreciation for each other's efforts, qualities, and presence in your life. A gratitude journal, daily affirmations, or simply verbal expressions of thankfulness can foster a sense of mutual respect and admiration. 4. Couples Counseling: Consider seeking the guidance of a professional couples therapist to navigate through challenges and improve communication. Therapy sessions can provide a safe space for both partners to express their feelings, work through conflicts, and gain valuable insights into improving the relationship dynamics. 5. Physical Touch Rituals: Create rituals of physical touch that foster intimacy and connection. Whether it's holding hands during evening walks, cuddling before bed, or sharing regular hugs throughout the day, physical touch can communicate love and support non-verbally, strengthening the emotional bond between partners. 6.

But when it comes to raising kids, there are no shortcuts. You have to be in the long game to get to the other side. Each step, each stumble, each small victory, all contribute to the complex tapestry of nurturing and guiding young minds towards adulthood. You want them to be productive adults ready to impact the world they touch. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You're exhausted before your feet even hit the floor. However, embracing the ethos of the long game and deliberately avoiding the allure of quick fixes is key to cultivating resilient, confident children. Stick to the long game. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stick to the long game!   Not sure if you know, but Round 1 of the NFL Draft was last night. Did you know that the kids who play high school football, only .023% make it to the NFL. Of college players, only 1.6% make it. It's a sliver of a sliver of a sliver. If you want to play in the NFL, there are no shortcuts, and same goes for parenting. It's a marathon and you have to be willing to run it day after day. There are no guarantees of success, but by staying committed to the long game, you are laying the groundwork for your kids' future success and well-being.  Here are three essential strategies to help parents stay the course and resist the temptation of rushing through the moments of growth and understanding:<br /> <br /> 1. Embrace Learning Moments: Just like a football player doesn't become a star overnight, children need time to develop and grow. Every mistake, every failure, and every triumph is a valuable learning opportunity. Encourage curiosity, exploration, and resilience in your children, knowing that these experiences are shaping their character and providing them with the tools they need to navigate life's challenges.<br /> <br /> 2. Nurture Consistency: Consistency is the cornerstone of effective parenting. Setting clear boundaries, enforcing rules, and offering a predictable routine can provide children with a sense of security and stability. By being consistent in your actions and expectations, you are building a foundation of trust and reliability that will carry your children through the ups and downs of life.<br /> <br /> 3. Celebrate Progress, Not Perfection: In a world where perfection is often glorified, it's important to remember that progress, no matter how small, is worth celebrating. Parenting is a journey filled with ebbs and flows, and it's essential to acknowledge and appreciate the incremental steps forward. By focusing on the growth and development of your children, rather than fixating on the end goal, you can instill in them a sense of resilience and determination that will serve them well in the long run. Remember, there are no shortcuts when it comes to raising kids, but the rewards of patience, perseverance, and love are immeasurable. That's what you want for your family! "Be present. Be incredible.

Our lives are consumed by busyness, and much is missed every day because of our lack of presence. Stillness is strength. We live in a world that glorifies busyness and constant movement; the concept of stillness is often overlooked. Living in a society where being busy is worn as a badge of honor and taking a moment to pause and breathe is seen as a luxury, it's vital to pay attention to what is really missing. We fail to realize that in the midst of our chaos, it is in stillness that true strength is found. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We rush through our days, ticking off tasks on never-ending to-do lists, without stopping to smell the roses and appreciate the beauty of the present.<br /> <br /> But what if you shifted your perspective and embraced the power of stillness? What if you allowed yourself the grace to slow down, to be fully present in each moment, and to savor the simple joys of life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Stillness is strength!   Stillness is not a sign of laziness or weakness, as some may believe. On the contrary, stillness is a source of immense power and resilience. It is in the moments of silence and reflection that we find clarity, creativity, and connectivity; it's peaceful inspiration. And in these moments of stillness, you recharge your mind, body, and spirit, enabling you to show up as your best selfie in everything you do.<br /> <br /> So, next time you feel overwhelmed by the demands of life, give yourself permission to pause. Take a deep breath, feel the ground beneath your feet, and reconnect with the present moment.

When your days are full of stress, self-doubt, and overwhelm, keep it sweet. It's essential to shift the focus from what you can't have to what you can do. Healthy living can be simple and sweet if approached with the right mindset. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Unfortunately, we don't always have the luxury of simple and sweet. We complicate everything. In my opinion, we are so busy that we can't see what's happening when it's happening, and we don't know how to slow down to speed up. We just keep running a crazy life like the Energizer Bunny™️.  How is that living? Maybe you're actually living a slow death instead of a vibrant life. Let's get real to make a change! You can't play small when you want to change it all! At some point, you have to admit the real struggles you face when trying to live a healthy life. Hiding behind your excuses only puts you deeper in the dark dungeon of bad habits. You might be experiencing stuff like:<br /> 1. Overwhelming Information: The abundance of health advice, diet trends, health trackers, fitness routines, and even ChatGPT can lead to confusion and decision fatigue. What do you do? 2. Social Pressures: Navigating social gatherings, peer influences, and societal norms that may not align with your health goals. 3. Time Constraints: Balancing work, family, and personal commitments can make it challenging to prioritize healthy habits and self-care.  Eventually, time and money can't be your go-to!! You've gotta bury the hatchet of excuses and rise up for what is possible. The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep it sweet and simple!   Keep it sweet— it makes it doable. No more hardcore restrictions to hold you back. Instead, do what you can because you can. And keep it sweet and simple. 1. Focus on Seasonal REAL Foods: Instead of fixating on restrictions and counting calories, prioritize nourishing your body with whole, nutrient-dense foods. Opt for colorful fruits and vegetables, whole grains, healthy fats, and lean proteins that add to your muscle mass, not your fat _**. Keep your meals simple yet flavorful by experimenting with herbs, spices, and wholesome ingredients. Flavor and presentation is everything.

When your days are full of stress, self-doubt, and overwhelm, keep it sweet. It's essential to shift the focus from what you can't have to what you can do. Healthy living can be simple and sweet if approached with the right mindset. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Unfortunately, we don't always have the luxury of simple and sweet. We complicate everything. In my opinion, we are so busy that we can't see what's happening when it's happening, and we don't know how to slow down to speed up. We just keep running a crazy life like the Energizer Bunny™️.  How is that living? Maybe you're actually living a slow death instead of a vibrant life. Let's get real to make a change! You can't play small when you want to change it all! At some point, you have to admit the real struggles you face when trying to live a healthy life. Hiding behind your excuses only puts you deeper in the dark dungeon of bad habits. You might be experiencing stuff like:<br /> 1. Overwhelming Information: The abundance of health advice, diet trends, health trackers, fitness routines, and even ChatGPT can lead to confusion and decision fatigue. What do you do? 2. Social Pressures: Navigating social gatherings, peer influences, and societal norms that may not align with your health goals. 3. Time Constraints: Balancing work, family, and personal commitments can make it challenging to prioritize healthy habits and self-care.  Eventually, time and money can't be your go-to!! You've gotta bury the hatchet of excuses and rise up for what is possible. The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep it sweet and simple!   Keep it sweet— it makes it doable. No more hardcore restrictions to hold you back. Instead, do what you can because you can. And keep it sweet and simple. 1. Focus on Seasonal REAL Foods: Instead of fixating on restrictions and counting calories, prioritize nourishing your body with whole, nutrient-dense foods. Opt for colorful fruits and vegetables, whole grains, healthy fats, and lean proteins that add to your muscle mass, not your fat _**. Keep your meals simple yet flavorful by experimenting with herbs, spices, and wholesome ingredients. Flavor and presentation is everything. Become your 5-star restaurant that favors your body's health. 2. Move Your Body Joyfully: Physical activity doesn't have to feel like a chore. Find activities that bring you joy, whether it's dancing, hiking, yoga, or simply taking a walk in nature. Incorporate movement into your daily routine in a way that feels sustainable and enjoyable, rather than forcing yourself into rigorous workouts that drain your energy. What brings your heartbeat to life? 3. Practice Presence: Manage stress and overwhelm by being present in your everyday. Don't jump to conclusion before the outcome occurs. Incorporating mindfulness practices like taking moments to pause, breathe, and check in with yourself. Truly, feel your heart beat. Prioritize adequate sleep, hydration, and self-care activities that rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit. When you lead with gratitude, compassion, and grace, it opens your heart to connect with your head, accepting what is and doing what you can control. <br /> <br /> Remember, healthy living is not about perfection but progress.

It's a common trap to fall into, but what happens when the lie is no longer the truth? This is the moment where the transformation meets opportunity.

If you wake up every day doing the same things and expecting different results, something must change. It may be time to shake things up and make a conscious effort to change your mindset and course of action. If you keep believing the lie you tell yourself, it will become the truth. Our perceived reality has a way of confusing our minds, making us think we are doing what we should be. Well, think again. What reality are you living in— the truth or the lies you keep telling yourself? Remember, if you continue to believe the lies you tell yourself, they will eventually become your reality. It's essential to differentiate between the truth and the stories you've woven to break free from the cycle of limiting beliefs and embrace a new, empowering story for your life. You get to write your story every day and create your now! The K.I.S.S. ~ Write your story!   Here are three key steps to help you break free from the cycle of complacency and embrace a new reality:<br /> <br /> 1. Challenge What You See: Take a critical look at the stories you tell yourself, what you believe, and question whether they are serving your best interests. Identify any limiting beliefs that may be holding you back and replace them with empowering thoughts that align with your goals and aspirations. Be specific in what you want. In other words, stop beating around the bush. Be a true truthteller!<br /> <br /> 2. Step Out of the Norm: Growth and transformation often occur outside of your comfort zone. You have permission to be abnormal! Embrace new experiences, take risks, and try things that scare you. By pushing past your self-imposed boundaries and your own limitations where you say you can't do something, that's when you open yourself up to a world of possibilities and opportunities for growth.<br /> <br /> 3. Set Clear Goals and Take A.I.M.: Define what you want to achieve and create a daily roadmap to get there. Break down your goals into daily bite-sized steps and take consistent action towards them. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Celebrate small wins along the way and stay focused on your vision for the future. and what God has divinely planned for you! Challenge yourself to live authentically, embrace change, and strive for a reality that aligns with your true desires and aspirations, the heart palpitation moments.  The moment you dare to question the lies you've accepted as truth is the moment you pave the way for a transformation that can lead to a fulfilling and purpose-driven life.

Here are three key steps to help you break free from the cycle of complacency and embrace a new reality:<br /> <br /> 1. Challenge What You See: Take a critical look at the stories you tell yourself, what you believe, and question whether they are serving your best interests. Identify any limiting beliefs that may be holding you back and replace them with empowering thoughts that align with your goals and aspirations. Be specific in what you want. In other words, stop beating around the bush. Be a true truthteller!<br /> <br /> 2. Step Out of the Norm: Growth and transformation often occur outside of your comfort zone. You have permission to be abnormal! Embrace new experiences, take risks, and try things that scare you. By pushing past your self-imposed boundaries and your own limitations where you say you can't do something, that's when you open yourself up to a world of possibilities and opportunities for growth.<br /> <br /> 3. Set Clear Goals and Take A.I.M.: Define what you want to achieve and create a daily roadmap to get there. Break down your goals into daily bite-sized steps and take consistent action towards them. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Celebrate small wins along the way and stay focused on your vision for the future. and what God has divinely planned for you! Challenge yourself to live authentically, embrace change, and strive for a reality that aligns with your true desires and aspirations, the heart palpitation moments.  The moment you dare to question the lies you've accepted as truth is the moment you pave the way for a transformation that can lead to a fulfilling and purpose-driven life. Go and create your now! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

He is risen, He is risen indeed. This. Changes. Everything. This brings hope and renewal to all who believe and to those who question. When Jesus was on the cross, He was not alone.

Come and see the place where he lay." This verse encapsulates the transformative power of Easter, showing that even in the face of death, there is resurrection and new life. Just as Jesus triumphed over the grave because of the Divine plan, we too can overcome our struggles and emerge stronger than before. You are not your sins. And that's why— This. Changes. Everything. The K.I.S.S. ~ This. Changes. Everything!   In times of uncertainty and despair, it can be easy to lose sight of God's plan for us. However, Romans 8:28 reminds us that "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."  We don't always see what God is doing in the meantime, but God's meantime is better than our darkest corner moment.<br /> <br /> The enemy may tempt us with doubt, fear, and despair, but we can take comfort in the promise of God's redemption. 1 Corinthians 10:13 assures us that "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." "Satan's temptations are never greater than God's redemption." ~ Kristianne Wargo Today, as we reflect on the significance of Easter, we have the opportunity to choose the direction of our lives. Whether we are facing challenges or celebrating victories, the resurrection of Jesus reminds us that this. changes. everything. Let us walk in faith, hope, and love, knowing that we are never alone on this journey of life. God never left Jesus alone on the cross.

You can have a vibrant marriage because the fresh and new has come.  It is super easy to be lazy in our marriages. We cling to old habits and pastimes, attempting to maintain the peace because it's too much work otherwise.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   The kids have us running all over the place, regardless of whether they are living with us or not. I have a good friend who schedules her time with her only daughter once a month to see her. I've wondered if she does the same, but on a more frequent basis, with her husband.  We take a lot for granted. We think tomorrow will be here and we'll do it then. But tomorrow is not guaranteed.  With Easter tomorrow, it brought to my attention how we need to love each other like God loved His Son and loves us! But we don't have time for that either. Or do we? I think we make time for what matters. They say if you were to look at your monthly bank statement, it would tell you exactly what you prioritize. For me, maybe food. I'm just joking. But seriously, how are you spending your time, money, energy, and emotions with your spouse? Are you creating a bond that is inseparable? Looking at Easter with Good Friday yesterday, God loved His Son through the end and through the beginning. That love endured throughout sunrises and sunsets.  But what about your love for your spouse?  We don't necessarily punish our spouses in the manner that Jesus took on our sins, but to a degree, we hold grudges and keep score as if they should be punished. At what point do you say, "I need to love the way God first loved me?" Because that changes everything!! The K.I.S.S. ~ Love changes everything!   And it's not about love in the manner of what the world says, but how God shows us. Unconditional love needs to be the root of our marriage.  1 Corinthians 13:4-7 - "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." How are you loving your spouse? Love changes everything!  And it did the night that Jesus was crucified for you and me. Thankfully, Jesus rose on the third day in which we celebrate as Easter!  Love changes everything.  How can you take what God has proven to be true love and establish that in your marriage? 1. Practice Forgiveness Daily: Let go of past grievances and embrace a spirit of forgiveness towards your partner. Just as God forgave us through Christ, extend grace and mercy to your spouse, fostering a sense of healing and reconciliation in your relationship. Ephesians 4:32 - "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." 2. Cultivate Kindness and Patience: Channel the love described in Corinthians by choosing to show kindness and patience in your interactions with your spouse. Small acts of kindness and understanding can go a long way in strengthening the bond between you and your partner. 3. Prioritize Quality Time: Make intentional efforts to talk openly and honestly with your spouse, creating a space for shared experiences and heartfelt conversations. That comes with quality time. Dedicate quality time to nurture your connection and deepen your understanding of each other's needs and desires. You get the opportunity to show your love as Christ loved you first. "Be present.

Because one of the toughest things we must do is bridge that gap.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   We need to find the happy medium that allows our children to face the truth in their lives so they can grow and be transformed into who they are becoming.  And that takes work! It's not something you just wake up to with all the tools in your toolbox and can renovate accordingly. It takes conversation after conversation after timeout after grounding after taking away the tablet or phone. This is not a quick fix "I got it" mom job!! This goes on and on and on. It never ends. You know with today being Good Friday, I can't help but think about Jesus and His conversation with God the Father.  Jesus expressed the concept of doing what He desired versus what His Father in Heaven desired. In Matthew 26:39, Jesus prays, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will." This verse highlights the internal conflict Jesus faced, ultimately choosing to align His will with that of His Father, demonstrating obedience, sacrifice, and love. Jesus concludes in Matthew 26:42— He went away a second time and prayed, "My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done." Jesus came back to His disciples and found them sleeping again. He left for the third time and after returning, told His disciples that "the hour has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners." (Matthew 26:45) Yet Jesus knew the outcome. God the Father prepared Him for such a time as this. And whether or not we want to believe it, this was real to Jesus. He felt the pain and the agony of what was to come.  Our children need to understand that there are consequences to what they do, good or bad, and they need to be ready to accept them accordingly. But that training comes from us as their parents.  We have to model the way God the Father modeled to God the Son (the Son of Man). Otherwise, our children will miss the boat. So we must sacrifice comfort for the betterment of our children. The K.I.S.S. ~ Sacrifice comfort!   Sacrificing comfort is more for us than for them. We have to do the hard stuff so they can live and impact with greater simplicity. Teaching them right from wrong every day keeps our children grounded.   To bridge the gap from confession to connection with their children, parents can incorporate the following practices:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Forgiveness: Just as Jesus forgave those who wronged Him, parents can embody forgiveness when their children make mistakes. By showing forgiveness, parents not only relieve their children of guilt but also pave the way for a deeper connection based on understanding and grace.<br /> <br /> 2. Offer Guidance with Love: Jesus's teachings were filled with love and compassion, even when delivering guidance or discipline. Parents can emulate this approach by providing constructive feedback and setting boundaries out of love, rather than out of anger or frustration. By offering guidance with empathy and understanding, parents can strengthen the bond with their children.<br /> <br /> 3. Foster Open Communication: Like the relationship between Jesus and His Father, parents and children can nurture their connection through open communication. Encouraging honest dialogues, active listening, and mutual respect creates a safe space for children to seek guidance, share their struggles, and grow through their mistakes.   The key is to build a foundation of trust and communication that enables parents to support their children's journey from confession to connection. What you are creating is the sacred space!<br /> <br /> Navigating the complexities of parenting requires a delicate harmony of discipline, forgiveness, and love. Drawing inspiration from the sacrificial love exemplified on Good Friday and the teachings of Jesus, parents can guide their children through their mistakes with empathy, understanding, and grace.   By embracing forgiveness, offering loving guidance, and fostering open communication, parents can move from moments of confession to deeper connections with their children, embodying the enduring bond of love and redemption.

Because one of the toughest things we must do is bridge that gap.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   We need to find the happy medium that allows our children to face the truth in their lives so they can grow and be transformed into who they are becoming.  And that takes work! It's not something you just wake up to with all the tools in your toolbox and can renovate accordingly. It takes conversation after conversation after timeout after grounding after taking away the tablet or phone. This is not a quick fix "I got it" mom job!! This goes on and on and on. It never ends. You know with today being Good Friday, I can't help but think about Jesus and His conversation with God the Father.  Jesus expressed the concept of doing what He desired versus what His Father in Heaven desired. In Matthew 26:39, Jesus prays, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will." This verse highlights the internal conflict Jesus faced, ultimately choosing to align His will with that of His Father, demonstrating obedience, sacrifice, and love. Jesus concludes in Matthew 26:42— He went away a second time and prayed, "My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done." Jesus came back to His disciples and found them sleeping again. He left for the third time and after returning, told His disciples that "the hour has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners." (Matthew 26:45) Yet Jesus knew the outcome. God the Father prepared Him for such a time as this. And whether or not we want to believe it, this was real to Jesus. He felt the pain and the agony of what was to come.  Our children need to understand that there are consequences to what they do, good or bad, and they need to be ready to accept them accordingly. But that training comes from us as their parents.  We have to model the way God the Father modeled to God the Son (the Son of Man). Otherwise, our children will miss the boat. So we must sacrifice comfort for the betterment of our children. The K.I.S.S. ~ Sacrifice comfort!   Sacrificing comfort is more for us than for them. We have to do the hard stuff so they can live and impact with greater simplicity. Teaching them right from wrong every day keeps our children grounded.   To bridge the gap from confession to connection with their children, parents can incorporate the following practices:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Forgiveness: Just as Jesus forgave those who wronged Him, parents can embody forgiveness when their children make mistakes.

In times of struggle and hardship, it is often our faith and connection to God that sustains us, helping us find our way back to the light.<br /> <br /> When we feel unseen and unheard, it can be tempting to retreat further into isolation, hiding our pain and struggles from the world. However, it is precisely in these moments of vulnerability that we need to reach out and connect with the divine presence that surrounds us. Oh God, do you hear me?

If only one could figure out how embracing divine fitness in a world of temptations could elevate their days, then life would definitely be lived differently.  In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, it is written, "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   This scripture serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of treating our bodies as sacred vessels entrusted to us by God. Now, let me also clarify that in the context here, the Apostle Paul is speaking about sexual immorality. However, just looking at the part where it questions, "Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you...", would you not want to treat your body, inside and out, with respect, love, and care? I remember one thing my husband said to me when I was really in a battle with my body, and it still is heart-stopping to this day. "God wants you pure!" ~ Kristianne's Husband We can never be perfect here on Earth, but we can choose to be pure in a manner that serves our heavenly Father well while here on Earth.  You get one mind, one body, and one spirit. How are you choosing to live for Christ every day with your body? If we treat our bodies with disrespect, how does that translate to how we are treating God if our bodies are the temple? In a world filled with temptations and distractions, how can we shift our perspective toward divine fitness and prioritize what truly matters? The shift comes when we nurture our bodies. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nurture your body!   The Shift:<br /> Our approach to fitness and well-being transforms when we view our bodies as temples of God. Instead of solely focusing on physical aesthetics or fleeting desires, we shift our mindset to honor our bodies as a gift from God, deserving of respect, care, and nourishment.   Divine fitness is not just about physical exercise; it encompasses holistic wellness—nurturing our bodies, minds, and spirits in alignment with our spiritual beliefs.   Three Ways to Embrace Divine Fitness and Escape Temptations: <br /> 1. Cultivate Mindful Movement: Engage in physical activities that not only strengthen your body but also elevate your spirit. Whether it's strength training, going for a nature walk, or dancing to uplifting music, choose activities that connect you with your inner being, bringing you closer to God.<br /> <br /> 2. Nourish with Intention: Fuel your body with wholesome, nourishing foods that support your overall well-being. Choose foods that energize you, nourish you, and honor your body's needs. Avoid succumbing to unhealthy temptations by mindfully selecting foods that align with your values and goals.<br /> <br /> 3. Connect with Community: Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share your commitment to divine fitness. Seek support and encouragement from a community that uplifts and inspires you on your wellness journey. By fostering meaningful connections with others on a similar path, you can navigate temptations together and stay focused on what truly matters.<br /> <br /> Embracing divine fitness is not just about physical exertion—it's a holistic lifestyle that honors our bodies as temples of God. When you shift your perspective, you can escape temptations and realign with what truly matters—honoring your mind, body, and spirit as sacred gifts from God.   As you walk this Holy Week, really give yourself the space to know what God desires for you so you can honor God with your mind, body, and spirit.  This is the day that the Lord has made; love yourself and create your now!

If only one could figure out how embracing divine fitness in a world of temptations could elevate their days, then life would definitely be lived differently.  In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, it is written, "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   This scripture serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of treating our bodies as sacred vessels entrusted to us by God. Now, let me also clarify that in the context here, the Apostle Paul is speaking about sexual immorality. However, just looking at the part where it questions, "Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you...", would you not want to treat your body, inside and out, with respect, love, and care? I remember one thing my husband said to me when I was really in a battle with my body, and it still is heart-stopping to this day. "God wants you pure!" ~ Kristianne's Husband We can never be perfect here on Earth, but we can choose to be pure in a manner that serves our heavenly Father well while here on Earth.  You get one mind, one body, and one spirit. How are you choosing to live for Christ every day with your body? If we treat our bodies with disrespect, how does that translate to how we are treating God if our bodies are the temple? In a world filled with temptations and distractions, how can we shift our perspective toward divine fitness and prioritize what truly matters? The shift comes when we nurture our bodies. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nurture your body!   The Shift:<br /> Our approach to fitness and well-being transforms when we view our bodies as temples of God. Instead of solely focusing on physical aesthetics or fleeting desires, we shift our mindset to honor our bodies as a gift from God, deserving of respect, care, and nourishment.   Divine fitness is not just about physical exercise; it encompasses holistic wellness—nurturing our bodies, minds, and spirits in alignment with our spiritual beliefs.   Three Ways to Embrace Divine Fitness and Escape Temptations: <br /> 1. Cultivate Mindful Movement: Engage in physical activities that not only strengthen your body but also elevate your spirit. Whether it's strength training, going for a nature walk, or dancing to uplifting music, choose activities that connect you with your inner being, bringing you closer to God.<br /> <br /> 2. Nourish with Intention: Fuel your body with wholesome, nourishing foods that support your overall well-being. Choose foods that energize you, nourish you, and honor your body's needs. Avoid succumbing to unhealthy temptations by mindfully selecting foods that align with your values and goals.<br /> <br /> 3. Connect with Community: Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share your commitment to divine fitness. Seek support and encouragement from a community that uplifts and inspires you on your wellness journey. By fostering meaningful connections with others on a similar path, you can navigate temptations together and stay focused on what truly matters.<br /> <br /> Embracing divine fitness is not just about physical exertion—it's a holistic lifestyle that honors our bodies as temples of God. When you shift your perspective, you can escape temptations and realign with what truly matters—honoring your mind, body, and spirit as sacred gifts from God.   As you walk this Holy Week, really give yourself the space to know what God desires for you so you can honor God with your mind, body, and spirit. ...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1253</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,fitness,forgiveness,gratitude,habits,happiness,health,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,nutrition,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,weightloss,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2236990719ca1d128a2355cc308a82b0.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3668 The Rise</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3668-the-rise--65577691</link><description><![CDATA[In pursuing our dreams and goals, we often face daunting challenges and setbacks that test our resilience and determination.

No matter what you do, they capture the present moment. So, as you take a peek, do you believe what you see in the mirror? Now, be kind to yourself as you answer that question, and also be very honest. No need to beat around the bush if you want something different.

And no matter where you turn, change will greet you. However, it's not worrying about the change, but how you will face it with eloquence and patience. See, that's where a lot of us mess up. We get impatient because we want what we want NOW! There's no time to wait. Can't you just order what you want and it appears? It's worked for Amazon. In life, it's not that easy. The reality is you have to be willing to stick with it longer than what it took to get where you are now.  Look at new businesses. You're not an overnight success racking in millions of dollars. It takes blood, sweat, and tears to get your business noticed and those willing to buy whatever you are selling. You have to build your customer base. The same goes for you. You have to build a solid foundation, one that you want. And if that foundation is unacceptable, you gotta make some changes with a sledgehammer or concrete jackhammer to make room for the changes.  Let's take it back to the mirror. If you are using the mirror as a tool to see what is happening, then you have to learn how to magnify what you want to see. The K.I.S.S. ~ Magnify what you want to see!   I don't know about you, but there are things I want to do better and some I would like to change. What about you?   What do you want to magnify so that who you are is captured within your reflection?   If you're looking to make changes and become the person you aspire to be, here are three things you can start doing today:<br /> <br /> 1. Seek Discomfort: Growth often lies outside of your comfort zone. Challenge yourself by trying new activities, learning a skill you've always wanted to master, or engaging in conversations that push your boundaries. Embracing discomfort can lead to personal breakthroughs and increased resilience.<br /> <br /> 2. Embrace Failure: Instead of fearing failure, view it as a stepping stone to success. Failure provides valuable lessons, feedback, and opportunities for growth. By reframing how you perceive failure, you can adopt a more resilient and growth-oriented mindset.<br /> <br /> 3. Engage in Lifelong Learning: Never stop learning and exploring new ideas. Whether it's reading books, taking online courses, attending workshops, or engaging in stimulating conversations, continuous learning can broaden your perspectives, enhance your skills, and keep your mind sharp.<br /> <br /> Here's a profound thought: Should we ever get comfortable with who we see in the mirror? While self-acceptance and self-love are important, it's equally crucial to strive for personal growth and development.   Embracing change and continuous improvement can lead to a more fulfilling and purposeful life. So, while it's essential to appreciate and honor who you are in the present moment, never stop aiming to become the best version of yourself.<br /> <br /> Remember, the mirror reflects more than just your appearance. It reflects your mindset, your actions, and your potential for growth. Believe in the power of change, and watch as the reflection transforms into the person you've always wanted to see. "Be present.

Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day." ~ 2 Corinthians 4:16 So much of Holy Week is in preparation for the jubilation that's to come after the shock and terror of Jesus' death on the cross.

The greeting so overwhelming and overwelcoming. That would be a monumental moment of hope and excitement. Think how you would feel? Recognized as someone who matters and people notice. Palm Sunday became a day to celebrate the promises Jesus brought and the hope of salvation to come. Even though life is not easy, and struggles and troubles can weigh us down, we are renewed day by day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Renewed Day By Day!   **Significance of Palms:** 1. **Victory and Triumph:** The waving of palm branches during Palm Sunday symbolizes victory, triumph, and honor. In biblical times, palm branches were often used as symbols of triumph and celebration, especially to welcome royalty or conquerors.<br />    <br /> 2. **Kingly Entry:** By spreading palm branches on the road as Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowds were acknowledging him as a king, fulfilling the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9 where the Messiah is described as entering Jerusalem on a donkey.<br />   <br /> 3. **Peace and Restoration:** Palms are also associated with peace and restoration in the Bible.

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who endured the cross for the joy set before Him, and let us find hope in the promise of resurrection and eternal life in Him.

The greeting so overwhelming and overwelcoming. That would be a monumental moment of hope and excitement. Think how you would feel? Recognized as someone who matters and people notice. Palm Sunday became a day to celebrate the promises Jesus brought and the hope of salvation to come.

There is no us without you. In truth, a relationship takes two to tango. But you first have to look at your contribution to the relationship. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Are you serving yourself only by pointing fingers at your spouse? Or are you searching deeper and starting by looking in the mirror? True growth in a relationship comes from self-reflection and personal development. Our egos appreciate the pointing of the fingers at our spouses. But the success of our marriage is dependent upon the reflection of our own head and heart first. Once when that clarity sets in and growth is gained for you, that's when the magic shows up in your marriage. Look in the mirror. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look in the mirror!   Here are three key strategies for spouses to consider before pointing the finger at their partner: 1. Cultivate Self-Awareness: Research shows that self-awareness is a critical skill for successful relationships. Before criticizing your spouse, take a moment to reflect on your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Ask yourself why certain things trigger you and how you can address those triggers within yourself. By understanding your own emotional reactions and patterns, you can approach conflicts with your partner from a place of self-awareness and empathy. 2. Understand Where "IT" Comes From: Once you know your patterns and triggers, the things you see in the mirror— you can begin to understand where they're coming from. It's vital to recognize and acknowledge what is happening so you can make decisions as to how to rectify the situation. How do you turn things around quickly? And then, in real-time, you can make shifts where you don't even experience the patterns or triggers any longer.  3. What is Your Contribution? Rather than trying to change your spouse, focus on where your contribution is in the marriage. Wherever you think you're pointing your fingers, look at yourself first. Make the changes, discuss them with your spouse, and see what happens. Then, you make further tweaks along the way, eventually creating new habits. Now, it's no longer about what your spouse is doing all wrong, but what you are doing better for your marriage. Connect your head and heart in this partnership called marriage. That's where you'll see hope and love root deeper, creating a stronger foundation for a beautiful marriage. "Be present. Be incredible.

As parents, it's crucial to understand the signs of stress and provide our children with ways to navigate these challenges, from stress to strength. Research suggests that prolonged exposure to stress in childhood can have detrimental effects on a child's development, affecting their psychological, relational, physical, and emotional well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   One of the challenging things in understanding stress and kids is that there are many causes. Sometimes we look more on the outside influences, but it can be internal within the family structure, too. That's what makes it tough. Who wants to say that you're causing your kiddos stress? No mama what's to admit to that, but there is truth to it. And it's vital to look at what is happening inside and outside the home in order to better help your child. And ultimately, that's where our focus should be. Don't take stress personally. Look at it from a factual perspective and come up with a plan to neutralize it.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Neutralize the stress!   I think of Mrs. Incredible from the movie The Incredibles with a zapper or a sting-ray to get rid of the stress.  Let's explore three effective ways parents can help their children handle stress and also discuss strategies for parents to manage their own stress effectively. 1. Build Emotional Resilience<br /> One of the most important ways parents can help their children handle stress is by building their emotional resilience. Encourage open communication with your child, create a safe space for them to express their feelings, and validate their emotions. Teach them coping mechanisms such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness techniques, or engaging in activities they enjoy. By fostering emotional resilience, children can learn to navigate stressors effectively and develop healthy coping strategies for the future.<br /> <br /> 2. Establish Healthy Routines<br /> Consistency and structure play a significant role in reducing stress for children. Establishing healthy routines such as regular sleep schedules, balanced nutrition, and dedicated time for homework, play, and relaxation can help children feel more secure and in control. Encourage physical activity and outdoor play to promote overall well-being and stress relief. By providing a stable environment, parents can support their children in managing stress more effectively.<br /> <br /> 3. Encourage Problem-Solving Skills<br /> Teaching children problem-solving skills from a young age can empower them to face challenges with confidence. Encourage critical thinking, creativity, and resilience when dealing with obstacles or stressful situations. Help your child break down problems into smaller, manageable tasks and guide them in finding solutions independently. By nurturing problem-solving skills, parents can equip their children with tools to navigate stress and adversity throughout their lives.<br /> <br /> Managing Parental Stress:<br /> Parenting can be overwhelming, and it's crucial for parents to take care of their own well-being to effectively support their children. Here are some strategies for parents to manage their stress:<br /> <br /> - Practice self-care: Prioritize self-care activities such as exercise, meditation, hobbies, or spending quality time with loved ones to recharge and reduce stress.<br /> - Seek support: Reach out to friends, family members, or mental health professionals for support and guidance when dealing with parental stress.<br /> - Set boundaries: Establish boundaries to manage workload, household responsibilities, and commitments effectively, allowing time for relaxation and self-care.<br /> <br /> Whether you want to admit it or not, parents play a vital role in helping their children handle stress in today's demanding world. You will make it through. Your hair might lose a little color. You might lose a little sleep. But you will make it through. You can take it from stress to strength. "Be present. Be incredible.

As parents, it's crucial to understand the signs of stress and provide our children with ways to navigate these challenges, from stress to strength. Research suggests that prolonged exposure to stress in childhood can have detrimental effects on a child's development, affecting their psychological, relational, physical, and emotional well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   One of the challenging things in understanding stress and kids is that there are many causes. Sometimes we look more on the outside influences, but it can be internal within the family structure, too. That's what makes it tough. Who wants to say that you're causing your kiddos stress? No mama what's to admit to that, but there is truth to it. And it's vital to look at what is happening inside and outside the home in order to better help your child. And ultimately, that's where our focus should be. Don't take stress personally. Look at it from a factual perspective and come up with a plan to neutralize it.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Neutralize the stress!   I think of Mrs. Incredible from the movie The Incredibles with a zapper or a sting-ray to get rid of the stress.  Let's explore three effective ways parents can help their children handle stress and also discuss strategies for parents to manage their own stress effectively. 1. Build Emotional Resilience<br /> One of the most important ways parents can help their children handle stress is by building their emotional resilience. Encourage open communication with your child, create a safe space for them to express their feelings, and validate their emotions. Teach them coping mechanisms such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness techniques, or engaging in activities they enjoy. By fostering emotional resilience, children can learn to navigate stressors effectively and develop healthy coping strategies for the future.<br /> <br /> 2. Establish Healthy Routines<br /> Consistency and structure play a significant role in reducing stress for children. Establishing healthy routines such as regular sleep schedules, balanced nutrition, and dedicated time for homework, play, and relaxation can help children feel more secure and in control. Encourage physical activity and outdoor play to promote overall well-being and stress relief. By providing a stable environment, parents can support their children in managing stress more effectively.<br /> <br /> 3. Encourage Problem-Solving Skills<br /> Teaching children problem-solving skills from a young age can empower them to face challenges with confidence. Encourage critical thinking, creativity, and resilience when dealing with obstacles or stressful situations. Help your child break down problems into smaller, manageable tasks and guide them in finding solutions independently. By nurturing problem-solving skills, parents can equip their children with tools to navigate stress and adversity throughout their lives.<br /> <br /> Managing Parental Stress:<br /> Parenting can be overwhelming, and it's crucial for parents to take care of their own well-being to effectively support their children. Here are some strategies for parents to manage their stress:<br /> <br /> - Practice self-care: Prioritize self-care activities such as exercise, meditation, hobbies, or spending quality time with loved ones to recharge and reduce stress.<br /> - Seek support: Reach out to friends, family members, or mental health professionals for support and guidance when dealing with parental stress.<br /> - Set boundaries: Establish boundaries to manage workload, household responsibilities, and commitments effectively, allowing...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1620</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,anxiety,dads,discipline,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,purpose,relationships,stress,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/e3437b19af1e325c567447798f27ea23.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3663 Dive a Little Deeper</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3663-dive-a-little-deeper--65530311</link><description><![CDATA[Are you tired of feeling like you're just skimming the surface of life, never quite reaching the depths of your true potential? Do you find yourself settling for mediocrity when you know you're capable of so much more? It's time to take a deep breath and dive a little deeper. Dive a little deeper into your passions, your goals, and ultimately, into yourself. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We go through the motions, ticking off our to-do lists and conforming to societal norms. But deep down, you know there's more to life than just going through the motions.<br /> <br /> Diving a little deeper means taking the time to explore what truly sets your soul on fire. It's about going beyond the superficial and uncovering the things that bring you joy, fulfillment, and purpose. Whether it's pursuing a long-buried passion, challenging yourself to step outside of your comfort zone, or simply taking the time to reflect on your values and beliefs, diving deeper can lead to a greater sense of satisfaction and meaning in your everyday life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dive a little deeper!   When you dive deeper, you open yourself up to new opportunities, experiences, and perspectives that can enrich your life in ways you never thought possible. You may discover hidden talents, forge deeper connections with others, or gain a newfound sense of confidence and self-assurance. When you embrace the courage to dive deeper, you allow yourself to break free from the constraints of complacency and embrace the limitless possibilities that await you beneath the surface.<br /> <br /> So, the next time you find yourself feeling stuck in a rut or settling for the status quo, remember to dive a little deeper. Challenge yourself to explore the unknown, push past your limitations, and uncover the untapped potential that lies within you. You have the power to create your now— a life that is rich, meaningful, and uniquely your own – all you have to do is take that leap of faith and dive into the depths of your true self.<br /> <br /> So today, are you ready to dive a little deeper? The journey may be challenging, but the rewards are immeasurable and unimaginable. Ready yourself to uncover the hidden depths of your greatness as you create your now. "Be present. Be incredible.

Not only does excess belly fat impact our self-esteem, but it also poses serious health risks. It's time to outsmart your belly fat. What would it mean to you to have your belly fat melt away, or at least decrease? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Research has shown that abdominal fat is more metabolically active and releases more harmful substances into the body compared to fat deposited in other areas, increasing the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic conditions.<br /> <br /> Despite the numerous diets, exercises, and weight loss programs available, shedding belly fat remains a significant challenge for many. Crash diets and excessive abdominal exercises often yield little to no sustainable results.  What have you tried in the past that has not worked well? If you want to make an impact on your health, it's time to outsmart your belly fat and take control of your health. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take back your health!   Here are three things you can do to begin your journey to better health. 1. Revamp Your Diet: Focus on consuming a well-balanced diet rich in whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid sugary drinks, processed foods, and trans fats, as they contribute to belly fat accumulation. Incorporating healthy fats like avocados, nuts, and olive oil can actually help reduce belly fat.<br /> <br /> 2. Prioritize Strength Training: While cardio is great for overall health, incorporating strength training into your fitness routine can help build muscle mass and increase your metabolism. Targeting the abdominal muscles with exercises like planks, crunches, and Russian twists can tone and tighten the midsection.<br /> <br /> 3. Prioritize Sleep and Stress Management: Lack of sleep and chronic stress can disrupt hormonal balance and promote weight gain, especially in the abdominal region. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night and practice relaxation techniques such as meditation or yoga to reduce stress levels.<br /> <br /> By adopting these strategies and staying consistent, you can outsmart your belly fat and take your health back. Remember, slow and steady wins the race to a better you! Progress is key to long-term success in your weight loss journey. So, don't rush what you can change one step at a time.    "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

We often find ourselves stuck in a cycle of expecting the worst and settling for less. Are you drowning on dry land? So much of our life is lived from a scarcity mindset. We think all the worse, but barely hope for the best. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Therefore, life is pretty negative and defeating every day. We become very petty about things that really don't matter. Quite frankly, we don't like who we see in the mirror, but have no reason why. We don't look for silver linings, only the ripped ones. We see what we are comfortable with because we know what to expect. But where does that get us? Drowning on dry land. How can we be the cream that rises to the top? How can we live out our purpose if all we see is what we think we are supposed to believe?<br /> <br /> Life is complicated. Life is beautiful. Yet, it is a life where you get to make some tough decisions. Stay where you are or move to higher ground.<br /> <br /> Are you drowning on dry land? What do your days look and feel like? Are you coping with what you know because that's where you're comfortable? Change turns everything upside down. And if you want something different, you must be willing to get on another roller coaster. That's life! Certainly, you can stay where you are. But let me ask you this: How has that been working for you lately? Is this the life you are meant to live? You can ask this in all circumstances and situations, from relationships to careers to school. All of life requires you to see it from either a scarcity mindset or an abundance mindset. You get to choose. You get to show up the way you fill up your cup, meaning your heart.  Where your head and heart connect is where you live. Are you living the way God desires for you? Or are you settling for less? It's time to rise above and embrace a mindset of abundance and possibility. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace a mindset of abundance and possibility!   Here are three powerful ways to break free from the thoughts that hold you back and open your mind to endless possibilities:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Gratitude: Start each day by focusing on what you are grateful for. By acknowledging the positives in your life, no matter how small, you shift your mindset from scarcity to abundance. Gratitude helps you see the silver linings and empowers you to approach challenges with a positive outlook.<br /> <br /> 2. Challenge Your Beliefs: Take a closer look at the beliefs that are limiting you. Are they based on fear or past experiences? Challenge these beliefs by asking yourself if they are serving your growth and happiness. Replace negative beliefs with empowering thoughts that align with your goals and aspirations.<br /> <br /> 3. Embrace Change and Growth: Life is a journey of constant evolution. Instead of staying in your comfort zone, be willing to embrace change and push yourself to grow. Step out of familiar patterns and explore new opportunities that can lead you to higher ground. Embracing change opens up a world of possibilities and helps you break free from the confines of a scarcity mindset.<br /> <br /> Remember, life is too short to stay stuck in a cycle of negativity and limitation. By practicing gratitude, challenging your beliefs, and embracing change, you can leave behind the thoughts that trap and restrict you, and open your mind to a world of endless possibilities. Nothing is impossible! Break free from the cycle of drowning on dry land and start living a life filled with purpose and passion all because of your presence. "Be present. Be incredible.

Natural disasters, financial struggles, and health issues are just a few of the ups and downs. But regardless, dribbling through life's challenges with faith is the only way to get to the other side.  And with faith, that's where your hope comes from. It's not what you can control or how you can change the situation. It truly is something bigger than you and me; it's God at the helm. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   God created you on purpose for a purpose. Do you think He will let His plans fizzle and fall to the wayside? Of course not! You literally mean the world to Him. God sent His only Son to die on the cross for your sins. Imagine for a moment what that would feel like to have to give up your only child to save the world. I don't think most of us would have the heart to do what God did. But that's why God is God!! John 3:16 ~ "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." Now, that doesn't mean that you will always get what you pray for or what you want in life.  Romans 8:28 ~ "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." God is in control. All the more reason to walk by faith, not by sight. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dribbling through life's challenges with faith!   2 Corinthians 5:7 ~ "For we live by faith, not by sight." How are you living your life? Are you working from a cup that is half empty, trying to figure out everything on your own? Or are you genuinely leaning on God and His strength? You will drive yourself into the ground if you don't always put your faith in God! Yes, you will have those moments where you yell at Him and give you a piece of your mind. You're human! God expects that. You need to be real with God, because that is what He desires most for you. He wants a relationship, not a transaction.  So, how are you leaning on God? Are you willing to let Him take the ball and make the basket, even if that means it's not what you want? I totally get it. You want the control because you think you can handle it...until you can't! Let God be more than a 911 moment. Let God love you the way He knows best. Let Him play in the game of life with you. I promise you, God's got you! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Natural disasters, financial struggles, and health issues are just a few of the ups and downs. But regardless, dribbling through life's challenges with faith is the only way to get to the other side.  And with faith, that's where your hope comes from. It's not what you can control or how you can change the situation. It truly is something bigger than you and me; it's God at the helm. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   God created you on purpose for a purpose. Do you think He will let His plans fizzle and fall to the wayside? Of course not! You literally mean the world to Him. God sent His only Son to die on the cross for your sins. Imagine for a moment what that would feel like to have to give up your only child to save the world. I don't think most of us would have the heart to do what God did. But that's why God is God!! John 3:16 ~ "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." Now, that doesn't mean that you will always get what you pray for or what you want in life.  Romans 8:28 ~ "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." God is in control. All the more reason to walk by faith, not by sight. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dribbling through life's challenges with faith!   2 Corinthians 5:7 ~ "For we live by faith, not by sight." How are you living your life? Are you working from a cup that is half empty, trying to figure out everything on your own? Or are you genuinely leaning on God and His strength? You will drive yourself into the ground if you don't always put your faith in God! Yes, you will have those moments where you yell at Him and give you a piece of your mind. You're human! God expects that. You need to be real with God, because that is what He desires most for you. He wants a relationship, not a transaction.  So, how are you leaning on God? Are you willing to let Him take the ball and make the basket, even if that means it's not what you want? I totally get it. You want the control because you think you can handle it...until you can't! Let God be more than a 911 moment. Let God love you the way He knows best. Let Him play in the game of life with you. I promise you, God's got you! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

In the game of love, marriage is not a competition but a connection. In the fast-paced game of relationships, it's easy to get caught up in the scorekeeping mentality – who did what, who's right or wrong. But what truly matters is the presence you bring to the table every day. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Because life does get in the way. And when it does, the game of love can be over before it really started. The arguments, the disagreements. The late nights for one who's the night owl, and the other who turns in early. Opposites do attract, but they shouldn't show up on a scoreboard. So what does your marriage look like? Does one of you keep score more than the other? Do you both do it equally?  Shifting the blame doesn't change the game. You have to decide if the scoreboard is where you should focus. And if you want something different and truly a gamechanger, you've gotta embrace connection over competition. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace connection over competition!   Here are three vital strategies to shift focus away from the scoreboard and toward the heart of the matter:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Gratitude: Instead of tallying up shortcomings or mistakes, make a conscious effort to appreciate and acknowledge the efforts and intentions of your spouse. Expressing gratitude fosters a positive and supportive environment, nurturing connection and understanding.<br /> <br /> 2. Cultivate Empathy: Put yourself in your spouse's shoes and seek to understand their perspective and emotions. By empathizing with their feelings and experiences, you can build a deeper level of emotional intimacy and strengthen your bond.<br /> <br /> 3. Prioritize Communication: Instead of keeping a mental scoreboard of grievances, prioritize open and honest communication with your spouse. Create a safe space for sharing thoughts, feelings, and concerns, fostering a sense of mutual respect and understanding.<br /> <br /> As the NCAA March Madness Tournament unfolds, remember that true champions are not determined by scores alone. It's the unwavering support, unity, and belief in each other that elevate a team to greatness. In your marriage, strive to always be the team at the top – united, resilient, and focused on the heart of the matter. Let your love be the victory that transcends all scores, leading you to a place of enduring connection and joy. At the Top of the Heart by Kristianne Wargo In the grand arena of hearts, where emotions swirl,  <br /> Beyond the confines of wins and losses, unfurl.  <br /> Let not the scores dictate our love's sweet dance,  <br /> But the depth of our connection, our enduring romance.   In the symphony of souls, let empathy play,  <br /> Understanding and compassion guiding our way.  <br /> For in acknowledging each other's highs and lows,  <br /> We foster a love that eternally grows.   Communication, the key to unlocking hearts' doors,  <br /> In its open embrace, understanding soars.  <br /> Speak truths, share fears, let vulnerabilities show,  <br /> In this sacred space, our love will glow.   As the March Madness tournament captivates the nation,  <br /> Let us be inspired by its jubilation.  <br /> For in the game of love, we are each other's team,  <br /> United in love, following a shared dream.   So let the scoreboard fade, the numbers blur,  <br /> In the realm of love, it's our connection that's pure.  <br /> Champions not by points, but by the heart,  <br /> Together we stand, never to part.   In the symphony of souls, in love's sweet art,  <br /> We'll always be the team at the top of the heart.

Just because your child makes a bad choice does not mean you're a terrible parent— another one bites the dust. As parents, we all want the best for our children. However, despite our best efforts, they may sometimes make decisions that leave us feeling helpless and worried. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

I know we like to think that we do. But in reality, we don't. No matter how we look at it. All we can do is take what's in front of us and deal with the situation accordingly to the severity or lack there of. What have you experienced with your children recently? Did you handle it with ease and little frustration? If only it were that simple. But it can be if you operate from the facts, not the feelings. The K.I.S.S. ~ Operate from facts, not feelings!   Here are three things you can do to maintain your sanity and personal peace while continuing to influence your child in a positive manner: 1. Nip it in the bud. While it's important to be understanding and supportive, it's also crucial to establish boundaries and consequences for your child's actions. By setting clear expectations and enforcing reasonable consequences that are age-appropriate, you can help your child understand the impact of their decisions and learn from their mistakes. 2. Facilitate opportunities for consistency. Consistency is key in parenting. Be consistent in your expectations, rules, and consequences to provide your child with a sense of stability and structure. 3. Encourage positive reinforcement. Focus on highlighting and praising your child's positive behaviors and decisions. By recognizing and rewarding their good choices, you can help build their self-esteem and reinforce positive behavior. No matter how you look at it, parenting takes work. It's exhausting one moment and exhilarating another moment. So, you get to choose how you approach raising your kids.  But here's the thing: I believe in your abilities. Don't give up. Ya got this!

While it's important to be understanding and supportive, it's also crucial to establish boundaries and consequences for your child's actions. By setting clear expectations and enforcing reasonable consequences that are age-appropriate, you can help your child understand the impact of their decisions and learn from their mistakes. 2. Facilitate opportunities for consistency. Consistency is key in parenting. Be consistent in your expectations, rules, and consequences to provide your child with a sense of stability and structure. 3. Encourage positive reinforcement. Focus on highlighting and praising your child's positive behaviors and decisions. By recognizing and rewarding their good choices, you can help build their self-esteem and reinforce positive behavior. No matter how you look at it, parenting takes work. It's exhausting one moment and exhilarating another moment. So, you get to choose how you approach raising your kids.  But here's the thing: I believe in your abilities. Don't give up. Ya got this!

While many individuals have good intentions, you still must break bad habits today for a healthier tomorrow. As you know, overcoming entrenched habits can be challenging. Research indicates that breaking bad habits is crucial for long-term health benefits, both physically and mentally. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Why don't we break bad habits? Not breaking bad habits can have detrimental effects on various aspects of one's life. Here are some reasons why one might hesitate to break bad habits: 1. Comfort Zone: Bad habits often provide comfort and familiarity, making it challenging to step out of the routine and embrace change. 2. Fear of Failure: Breaking bad habits can be daunting, and the fear of relapsing or not succeeding may discourage individuals from even trying. 3. Instant Gratification: Bad habits often offer immediate gratification or relief, outweighing the long-term consequences they may have on health and well-being. 4. Lack of Awareness: Some individuals may not fully understand or acknowledge the negative impact of their bad habits, leading to complacency. 5. Lack of Support: Breaking bad habits may require support from friends, family, or professionals. Without a support system, individuals may find it difficult to make sustainable changes. 6. Emotional Attachments: Some bad habits are deeply rooted in emotions or psychological triggers, making them harder to overcome without addressing underlying issues. Why Break Bad Habits: Studies have shown that bad habits, such as smoking, excessive sugar consumption, or a sedentary lifestyle, can have detrimental effects on overall health. For example, smoking is linked to various health issues, including lung cancer and heart disease, while excessive sugar intake can lead to obesity and diabetes. Breaking these habits can significantly reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases and improve quality of life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the old and create the new!   Three Strategies to Break Bad Habits and Replace Them with Good Ones:<br /> <br /> 1. Identify Triggers and Create a Plan:<br /> - Recognize the triggers that lead to engaging in the bad habit. For instance, if stress triggers the habit of unhealthy snacking, find alternative stress-relief activities like meditation or going for a walk.<br /> - Develop a detailed plan to address triggers. If late-night snacking is a problem, plan and prepare healthy snacks like cut-up veggies or fruit to curb cravings.<br /> <br /> 2. Start Small and Stay Consistent:<br /> - Break the habit into smaller manageable steps. For example, if the goal is to reduce soda intake, start by replacing one soda with a glass of water per day.<br /> - Consistency is key to forming new habits. Set specific, achievable goals and track progress. Celebrate small victories along the way to stay motivated.<br /> <br /> 3. Find Healthy Replacements:<br /> - Replace the bad habit with a healthier alternative. If mindless scrolling on social media is a habit, swap that time with reading a book or going for a workout.<br /> - Make healthy choices readily available. Stock up on nutritious foods, sign up for fitness classes, or join a support group to stay on track.<br /> <br /> Breaking bad habits requires commitment, determination, and resilience. By understanding the impact of unhealthy habits on overall health and implementing strategies to break them, you can have a better tomorrow.  Remember, it's never too late to make positive changes today for a healthier tomorrow.

You start off with grand plans and high ambitions, ready to conquer the world. But then life throws curveballs, and suddenly, your goals seem out of reach until— discipline is the difference! It's a common scenario - we start with enthusiasm, but as days pass, our motivation wanes. Soon, what once seemed like a burning desire is reduced to a mere afterthought. It's not a conscious decision to quit; it's a gradual drift into inaction. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   The danger of drifting is real. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months, and before you know it, years have slipped through your fingers. The culprit? Overreliance on motivation.<br /> <br /> Motivation is a fair-weather friend; it shows up when things are going well but vanishes when challenges arise. That's why those who consistently succeed don't rely on motivation alone; they rely on discipline and systems that keep them on track, regardless of how they feel.<br /> <br /> Winners understand that motivation is fleeting, but discipline is enduring. By establishing solid structures like habits, routines, and accountability measures, they create a framework that propels them forward, even on the toughest days. The K.I.S.S. ~ Discipline is the difference!   So, this week, I challenge you to ponder: What system or discipline can you implement today to make progress a habit? It's not about pushing harder than others; it's about setting yourself up for success so that falling behind becomes impossible.<br /> <br /> You have the power to create an environment where progress isn't a struggle but a natural outcome of your efforts. By prioritizing discipline over fleeting motivation, you pave the way for sustained success.<br /> <br /> Don't wait for motivation to strike. Instead, harness the transformative power of discipline and systems to propel you towards your goals. Today is the day to lay the foundation for your success. Embrace discipline, embrace progress, and watch as you soar to new heights.<br /> <br /> Remember, discipline is the difference between wishing for success and achieving it. Let today mark the beginning of your disciplined journey towards greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

You start off with grand plans and high ambitions, ready to conquer the world. But then life throws curveballs, and suddenly, your goals seem out of reach until— discipline is the difference! It's a common scenario - we start with enthusiasm, but as days pass, our motivation wanes. Soon, what once seemed like a burning desire is reduced to a mere afterthought. It's not a conscious decision to quit; it's a gradual drift into inaction. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   The danger of drifting is real. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months, and before you know it, years have slipped through your fingers. The culprit? Overreliance on motivation.<br /> <br /> Motivation is a fair-weather friend; it shows up when things are going well but vanishes when challenges arise. That's why those who consistently succeed don't rely on motivation alone; they rely on discipline and systems that keep them on track, regardless of how they feel.<br /> <br /> Winners understand that motivation is fleeting, but discipline is enduring. By establishing solid structures like habits, routines, and accountability measures, they create a framework that propels them forward, even on the toughest days. The K.I.S.S. ~ Discipline is the difference!   So, this week, I challenge you to ponder: What system or discipline can you implement today to make progress a habit? It's not about pushing harder than others; it's about setting yourself up for success so that falling behind becomes impossible.<br /> <br /> You have the power to create an environment where progress isn't a struggle but a natural outcome of your efforts. By prioritizing discipline over fleeting motivation, you pave the way for sustained success.<br /> <br /> Don't wait for motivation to strike. Instead, harness the transformative power of discipline and systems to propel you towards your goals. Today is the day to lay the foundation for your success. Embrace discipline, embrace progress, and watch as you soar to new heights.<br /> <br /> Remember, discipline is the difference between wishing for success and achieving it. Let today mark the beginning of your disciplined journey towards greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

If you focused more on your purpose, the passion would fuel your everyday presence, and then you would not be contemplating whether you're good enough. But how many of your days are lived in that manner? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Are you choosing to wake up with hope in your step to guide your actions with discipline? Or have you been hiding out with your excuses because you know them all too well? And if you're comfortable, there's no reason to change. But let's get real on this beautiful day! You are created for more, destined to create your now.  So, what's driving your excuses? What makes you feel stuck and keeps you settled in that chair of comfort? Causes for Feeling Stuck:<br /> <br /> 1. Fear of Failure: The fear of not succeeding or living up to expectations can be a powerful driver of excuses. This fear can paralyze us and prevent us from taking risks or stepping outside our comfort zones. 2. Lack of Clarity: Uncertainty about our purpose or direction in life can lead to indecision and inaction. Without a clear vision of where we want to go, it's easy to get caught up in excuses and distractions. 3. Negative Self-Talk: Negative beliefs about our capabilities or worthiness can undermine our confidence and fuel self-doubt. This negative self-talk can create a barrier to pursuing our purpose with conviction. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the chains of excuses!   You can break the chains of excuses when you decide to do it. Otherwise, you will keep doing what has not worked for you in the past. So what do you want? Ways to Break Free:<br /> <br /> 1. Challenge Your Limiting Beliefs: Identify and challenge the negative beliefs that are holding you back. Replace them with positive affirmations and reminders of your strengths and past achievements. 2. Set Small, Achievable Goals: Break down your larger purpose into smaller, manageable goals. By taking small steps towards your vision, you can build momentum and confidence, overcoming the inertia of excuses. 3. Cultivate and Celebrate with a Supportive Environment: Surround yourself with people who believe in your potential and encourage you to pursue your purpose. Seek out mentors, coaches, or like-minded individuals who can provide guidance and accountability. One way to look at what to do next is to ask yourself: What do I want to cuddle up with? What do I value? Where do I want to be tomorrow? Don't cloud your expectations with dreams that are too big to come true tomorrow. Take the next step and create your now.

What you want now takes time. Love did it again. And it does it again over and over because you commit every day. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Real life creeps in, and life takes over your schedule and sometimes your heart. But if we all were to buy into this thought, no one would stay married. Everyone would find a way or reason to divorce. Yet, just like fine wine, marriage gets better with time. So what if you could have that fine marriage you really want, are you willing to put in the work and the consistency? I guess that you most certainly are!  What would that take for you to commit? To actually say every day that this is the marriage you want and the way you will go? It's all in the decision! The K.I.S.S. ~ Decide!   Most of what we get doesn't come from a dream but an action. You have to decide and take AIM!   Here are three key strategies for couples to stay dedicated to each other and nurture their bond, knowing that love has the power to transform and grow:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Active Listening: Communication is the cornerstone of a strong and healthy marriage. Take the time to truly listen to your partner without interrupting or forming your response in your mind. Show empathy, understanding, and validation towards their thoughts and feelings. By actively listening, you demonstrate respect and care for your spouse, fostering a deeper connection and trust in the relationship.<br /> <br /> 2. Prioritize Quality Time Together: In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy for couples to become caught up in their individual responsibilities and neglect quality time together. Make a conscious effort to carve out moments for just the two of you to bond and connect. Whether it's a weekly date night, a weekend getaway, or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home, investing in shared experiences strengthens your emotional intimacy and reinforces your commitment to each other.<br /> <br /> 3. Celebrate Each Other and Your Growth: As individuals, we are constantly evolving and learning. In a marriage, it's important to support and celebrate each other's personal growth and achievements. Acknowledge and appreciate the efforts your partner makes towards self-improvement and encourage them to pursue their passions and goals. By cheering each other on and being each other's greatest cheerleader, you create a supportive and loving environment that nurtures the growth of your relationship.   Put on your big girl panties! Every day, show up filled up for your spouse. YES!!! Life is going to be crazy and chaotic. But if you do it together, it's much better than doing it alone and being hateful to each other.   Dish up a cup of love and bask in life together forever. "Be present. Be incredible.

Staying strong during tough times might be one of the most complicated and pivotal moments for you as a parent. It's natural to feel emotionally drained and overwhelmed while striving to provide the support and strength your child needs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   You give to them as much as ensuring everyone else in the family is cared for. It's a tightrope act no one wants to participate in, but one that every parent gets a taste of at some point in their life.  Parenting is not fair. However, you can help yourself and your child maneuver their way through the tough times and stay balanced on the tightrope of life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Balance the tightrope!    Now, there are some basics that most parents use to balance the tightrope: prioritize self-care, practice open communication, and seek professional help.   Indeed, there is SO much more. Here are a few other things to think about.   1. Practice Patience and Understanding: Emotions may run high during challenging periods, and tensions may escalate. Parents need to practice patience and understanding, both with their children and themselves. Recognize that everyone copes differently and that it's okay to experience a range of emotions. You can create a nurturing environment that fosters healing and growth by showing empathy and understanding. Extending a hand with your heart will reach a lot deeper.<br /> <br /> 2. Encourage Positive Coping Mechanisms: Help your child develop healthy coping mechanisms to navigate complex emotions and situations. Encourage activities that promote relaxation, such as meditation, journaling, art therapy, or exercise. By empowering your children to express themselves in positive ways, you can help them build resilience and emotional strength to face challenges head-on.<br /> <br /> 3. Establish Routine and Stability: During tumultuous times, establishing a sense of routine and stability can provide comfort and security for your child. Create a predictable schedule that includes time for relaxation, connection, and self-care. Consistency in daily routines can help your child feel grounded and supported, even amidst uncertainty. Also, fostering a stable home environment can offer your child a sense of security and safety during turbulent times.<br /> <br /> Mom (and Dad)— You can create a supportive and nurturing environment to help your child navigate tough times with resilience and strength. And when you put it all together, that's where the magic happens, empowering you and your child to thrive in the face of adversity.  "Be present. Be incredible.

Yet, deep within your heart, you know you are meant to break the mold. You are made for more! You have a purpose, a calling that God has placed within you, waiting to be unleashed; it's bubbling up and bubbling over. Despite the challenges and setbacks, it's time to break the mold and pursue your dreams with a determination that inspires your soul. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But I get it. Setbacks are real. However, setbacks are not roadblocks; they are merely detours on the path to your destiny. Remember, I've gotten ill a few times this year, but that hasn't deterred me from what I am doing here at Create Your Now. Yes, it has slowed some projects, but I still keep going. Instead of being discouraged by setbacks, see them as opportunities for your comebacks. Each setback is a stepping stone— think of it as a bouncing ball that propels you closer to where you want to be. A setback can put a spring in your step if you let it. So embrace the challenges. Look at them as what they are, nothing more or nothing less. "Don't attach your heart to the outcome of your failure." ~ Kristianne Wargo That's where your resilience muscle grows. <br /> <br /> While it may seem like all this is good and well, time still is not on your side. Yet, time is merely a tool in your hands. It's not a limitation but a resource to be managed wisely. You can make the most of every moment by prioritizing your tasks, setting boundaries, and focusing on what truly matters. Use time as a tool, not as an excuse, to break the mold. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the mold!   But here's the reality. When setbacks and delays test your patience, take a deep breath and recall that God's timing is perfect. You have got to remind yourself of God's watch, not yours.  Trust in His plan for your life, knowing that each delay is part of a greater design. Your dreams are not forgotten; they are simply unfolding according to His divine timing. Have faith, stay steadfast, and believe that everything will fall into place at the right moment.<br /> <br /> Despite the challenges and setbacks, never lose sight of the purpose burning within your heart. Your dreams are worth pursuing with unwavering passion and your presence. Let your passion be the fuel that propels your purpose forward, driving you to break the mold and reach new heavenly heights here on earth.<br /> <br /> As you navigate through the challenges and busyness of your day, remember that you are destined for greatness. Your watch is yelling at you that it's time to break the mold! "Be present. Be incredible.

Yet, deep within your heart, you know you are meant to break the mold. You are made for more! You have a purpose, a calling that God has placed within you, waiting to be unleashed; it's bubbling up and bubbling over. Despite the challenges and setbacks, it's time to break the mold and pursue your dreams with a determination that inspires your soul. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   But I get it. Setbacks are real. However, setbacks are not roadblocks; they are merely detours on the path to your destiny. Remember, I've gotten ill a few times this year, but that hasn't deterred me from what I am doing here at Create Your Now. Yes, it has slowed some projects, but I still keep going. Instead of being discouraged by setbacks, see them as opportunities for your comebacks. Each setback is a stepping stone— think of it as a bouncing ball that propels you closer to where you want to be. A setback can put a spring in your step if you let it. So embrace the challenges. Look at them as what they are, nothing more or nothing less. "Don't attach your heart to the outcome of your failure." ~ Kristianne Wargo That's where your resilience muscle grows. <br /> <br /> While it may seem like all this is good and well, time still is not on your side. Yet, time is merely a tool in your hands. It's not a limitation but a resource to be managed wisely. You can make the most of every moment by prioritizing your tasks, setting boundaries, and focusing on what truly matters. Use time as a tool, not as an excuse, to break the mold. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the mold!   But here's the reality. When setbacks and delays test your patience, take a deep breath and recall that God's timing is perfect. You have got to remind yourself of God's watch, not yours.  Trust in His plan for your life, knowing that each delay is part of a greater design. Your dreams are not forgotten; they are simply unfolding according to His divine timing. Have faith, stay steadfast, and believe that everything will fall into place at the right moment.<br /> <br /> Despite the challenges and setbacks, never lose sight of the purpose burning within your heart. Your dreams are worth pursuing with unwavering passion and your presence. Let your passion be the fuel that propels your purpose forward, driving you to break the mold and reach new heavenly heights here on earth.<br /> <br /> As you navigate through the challenges and busyness of your day, remember that you are destined for greatness. Your watch is yelling at you that it's time to break the mold! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

However, every new day presents a fresh opportunity— take it as a new season. Just like the changing seasons, you can view each day as a new beginning for healthy living.

Are you pressed for time? Are your finances holding you back? Do your excuses make it easier to not do what you know you need to do? Maybe the pain isn't significant enough and the status quo is okay for now.  But how are you going to feel 2 days from now, or 2 weeks, or 2 months? If you want to live healthy and enjoy life more, having boundaries and making yourself a priority this Spring is the best way to rock your new season! The K.I.S.S. ~ Rock your new season!   Here are three simple strategies to help prioritize healthy living even when life gets busy:<br /> <br /> 1. Set Realistic Goals: Begin by setting achievable and realistic goals for yourself. Whether it's committing to a 30-minute workout, preparing homemade meals instead of ordering takeout, or getting a good night's sleep, setting specific goals can help you stay on track even during hectic days.<br /> <br /> 2. Create a Routine: Establishing a daily routine that includes healthy habits can make it easier to prioritize your health. Schedule your workouts or meal prep sessions at the same time each day to create consistency. Having a routine can help you stay organized and ensure that healthy choices become a natural part of your day.<br /> <br /> 3. Practice Self-Care: Remember that taking care of yourself is essential for overall well-being. Incorporate self-care activities such as meditation, pilates, yoga, or simply taking a few moments to unwind and relax. By prioritizing self-care, you can reduce stress, improve your mental health, and make healthier choices throughout the day.<br /> <br /> By approaching each day as a new season and embracing the opportunity for growth and positive change, you can make healthy living a priority even when life gets busy.   Remember, every small choice you make contributes to your overall health and well-being. So, take it one day at a time.   "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo   Let your commitment this spring blossom into a healthier lifestyle. "Be present. Be incredible.

Better yet...How many times have you repeated what you told yourself in high school? Unfortunately, that's the life many people live every day. We get up with the same voice in our head, yet we're quick to complain about our spouse or the children. And sometimes, we get rid of the spouse. But how come we can't kick the voices in our heads that are destructive and dismantling our well-being? We sacrifice ourselves for the sake of others' lies?!? And for what? For their gain, and your loss? Life isn't fair, but you can play the game for yourself more fair. But you have to be willing to get in the game! The K.I.S.S. ~ Get in the game!

Cultivate Self-Compassion:<br /> - Practice mindfulness and self-awareness to recognize when self-doubt creeps in.<br /> - Replace self-criticism with self-compassion by speaking to yourself as you would to a friend in need.<br /> - Celebrate your victories, no matter how big or small, and acknowledge your worthiness.<br /> <br /> 2. Channel Your Passion:<br /> - Identify your passions and interests to fuel your drive and enthusiasm.<br /> - Set inspiring goals that align with your values and aspirations.<br /> - Surround yourself with supportive individuals who uplift and encourage your passions.<br /> <br /> 3. Take Purposeful Action:<br /> - Break down daunting tasks into smaller, manageable steps to prevent overwhelm.<br /> - Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and learning.<br /> - Stay committed to your goals by staying focused on your "why" and the positive impact you can make.

The mess that surrounds us can often cloud our vision, making it difficult to see beyond our current circumstances. Yet scripture tells us more— so that. As believers, we are reminded in the Bible that there is always a deeper purpose behind our trials and struggles - a "so that" pointing us toward hope and redemption. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   One of the most powerful verses encapsulating this concept is found in John 9:3, where Jesus says, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him." Here, we see that even in the midst of suffering, there is a greater purpose at play - one that is rooted in glorifying God and His work in our lives.<br /> <br /> Similarly, in Romans 8:28, we are reminded that "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." This verse serves as a beacon of hope for those feeling lost in the chaos, reassuring us that God is working in and through our struggles to bring about something good and transformative. The K.I.S.S. ~ So that!   So that you can move beyond the earthly failures and see the heavenly blessings here on earth. As we navigate the challenges and messiness of life, it is important to hold fast to the truth of 1 Peter 4:12-13, which says, "Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed." This passage reminds us that our suffering is not in vain but serves a greater purpose in revealing God's glory in our lives.<br /> <br /> So, to the one who finds themselves surrounded by chaos and disappointment, take heart in knowing that your mess is not the end of the story. There is a "so that" waiting to unfold, where God's glory will shine through and bring about beauty from ashes. Rest in the assurance that you are His beloved child, and He is faithfully working all things together for your good.<br /> <br /> In the words of 2 Corinthians 4:17, "For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all." Let this truth be a source of encouragement and strength as you journey through the chaos, knowing that the God of all comfort is with you every step of the way. "Be present. Be incredible.

Many spouses struggle to ask for help, feeling guilty or burdensome when they do. Asking takes courage, and it's a sign of strength, not weakness. So why don't we do it more often? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   There are so many reasons why we don't ask. <ul> <li>Fear of Rejection: Spouses may hesitate to ask for help or communicate their needs out of fear of being rejected or judged by their partner.</li> <li>Assumption of Mind-Reading: Some spouses may believe that their partner should intuitively know what they need without having to explicitly ask for it, leading to miscommunication and unmet expectations.</li> <li>Guilt or Shame: Feelings of guilt or shame can prevent spouses from reaching out for assistance, as they may perceive themselves as burdensome or inadequate for needing help.</li> <li>Lack of Prioritization: Balancing household responsibilities, work commitments, and other obligations can make it difficult for spouses to prioritize communication about their needs and seek the support they require.</li> <li>Communication Barriers: Poor communication skills or unresolved conflicts within the relationship can create barriers to effectively expressing needs and asking for help.</li> <li>Independence: Some spouses may have a strong sense of independence and struggle to show vulnerability or rely on others for assistance, leading to a reluctance to communicate their needs.</li> </ul> Do you identify with any of these? And maybe you have thought of others. Understanding these pain points can help you overcome barriers to effective communication and create a more open and supportive marriage built on trust, empathy, and mutual understanding. However, if you are going to get anywhere with communication, you've got to speak up and ask! The K.I.S.S. ~ Speak up and ask!   Don't assume that your spouse is going to read your mind. I've been married and together for over 35 years now, and he still cannot read my mind. Now, I can read his mind, LOL! But that doesn't change the fact that we still need to feel comfortable, safe, and secure in sharing our thoughts, feelings, and needs with the one we love most. Come on, let's be real! Here are three ways to cultivate the courage to speak up and ask for what you need:<br /> <br /> 1. Set Aside Time for Honest Conversations: Create a safe space where you and your spouse can have open and honest discussions about your needs and expectations. Schedule regular check-ins to address any concerns or requests for support. By establishing clear communication channels, you can build trust and understanding in your relationship.<br /> <br /> 2. Practice Self-Advocacy: Recognize that it's okay to prioritize your well-being and ask for help when necessary. Practice self-advocacy by acknowledging your own needs and vocalizing them to your partner. Remember that a healthy relationship is based on mutual support and cooperation, so don't hesitate to express your concerns or ask for assistance.<br /> <br /> 3. Frame Requests Positively: When asking for help, frame your requests in a positive and constructive manner. Instead of focusing on what your spouse isn't doing, highlight how their assistance would benefit both of you. By emphasizing the positive outcomes of their support, you can encourage a collaborative approach to problem-solving and strengthen your bond as a couple.<br /> <br /> By cultivating the courage to speak up and ask for help in your relationship, you can foster a deeper connection with your spouse and create a more supportive and harmonious partnership. Remember, it's not a sign of weakness to seek assistance – it's a testament to your strength and commitment to building a healthy and fulfilling marriage because you care about each other. Asking takes courage. So, go and do it! "Be present. Be incredible.

Asking takes courage, and it's a sign of strength, not weakness. So why don't we do it more often? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   There are so many reasons why we don't ask. <ul> <li>Fear of Rejection: Spouses may hesitate to ask for help or communicate their needs out of fear of being rejected or judged by their partner.</li> <li>Assumption of Mind-Reading: Some spouses may believe that their partner should intuitively know what they need without having to explicitly ask for it, leading to miscommunication and unmet expectations.</li> <li>Guilt or Shame: Feelings of guilt or shame can prevent spouses from reaching out for assistance, as they may perceive themselves as burdensome or inadequate for needing help.</li> <li>Lack of Prioritization: Balancing household responsibilities, work commitments, and other obligations can make it difficult for spouses to prioritize communication about their needs and seek the support they require.</li> <li>Communication Barriers: Poor communication skills or unresolved conflicts within the relationship can create barriers to effectively expressing needs and asking for help.</li> <li>Independence: Some spouses may have a strong sense of independence and struggle to show vulnerability or rely on others for assistance, leading to a reluctance to communicate their needs.</li> </ul> Do you identify with any of these? And maybe you have thought of others. Understanding these pain points can help you overcome barriers to effective communication and create a more open and supportive marriage built on trust, empathy, and mutual understanding. However, if you are going to get anywhere with communication, you've got to speak up and ask! The K.I.S.S. ~ Speak up and ask!   Don't assume that your spouse is going to read your mind. I've been married and together for over 35 years now, and he still cannot read my mind. Now, I can read his mind, LOL! But that doesn't change the fact that we still need to feel comfortable, safe, and secure in sharing our thoughts, feelings, and needs with the one we love most. Come on, let's be real! Here are three ways to cultivate the courage to speak up and ask for what you need:<br /> <br /> 1. Set Aside Time for Honest Conversations: Create a safe space where you and your spouse can have open and honest discussions about your needs and expectations. Schedule regular check-ins to address any concerns or requests for support. By establishing clear communication channels, you can build trust and understanding in your relationship.<br /> <br /> 2. Practice Self-Advocacy: Recognize that it's okay to prioritize your well-being and ask for help when necessary. Practice self-advocacy by acknowledging your own needs and vocalizing them to your partner. Remember that a healthy relationship is based on mutual support and cooperation, so don't hesitate to express your concerns or ask for assistance.<br /> <br /> 3. Frame Requests Positively: When asking for help, frame your requests in a positive and constructive manner. Instead of focusing on what your spouse isn't doing, highlight how their assistance would benefit both of you. By emphasizing the positive outcomes of their support, you can encourage a collaborative approach to problem-solving and strengthen your bond as a couple.<br /> <br /> By cultivating the courage to speak up and ask for help in your relationship, you can foster a deeper connection with your spouse and create a more supportive and harmonious partnership. Remember, it's not a sign of weakness to seek assistance – it's a testament to your strength and commitment to building a...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1283</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,inspiration,joy,leadership,marriage,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,reconciliation,relationship,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/ce403c8da312293d8465bb9b21bb33ad.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3643 It Takes What It Takes</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3643-it-takes-what-it-takes--65009283</link><description><![CDATA[Parenting is a journey full of ups and downs, laughter and tears, joys and challenges. While showering our children with love and affection is essential, sometimes it takes what it takes. There are times when tough love is required to teach important life lessons and instill values. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kairos FREE Online Community</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.com</a>   Now, it's not going to be easy. At times, you will lose sleep. But you have to understand that when it comes to raising kids, it takes what it takes. You will give up what you thought you would never have to. You will learn to shut your mouth even though you want to scream. You will experience more frustration than ever before. But you can't fret over what you can't control. If you were to worry about everything to come, you would never enjoy life and the stages your children go through.  So, instead of living frantically, do what it takes. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what it takes!   Here are three ways for parents to stay encouraged and confident when they have to do what it takes:<br /> <br /> 1. Trust Your Instincts: As a parent, you possess a deep intuition when it comes to understanding what is best for your child. Trust your gut feelings and convictions when making tough decisions, even if they seem difficult in the moment. Remember, tough love today can pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.<br /> <br /> 2. Stay Committed to Long-Term Goals: Parenting is a long-term investment in shaping the future of your children. Keep your eyes on the bigger picture and remind yourself that the challenges you tackle today are paving the way for your child’s growth and development. Maintain a balance between short-term discomfort and long-term benefits.<br /> <br /> 3. Seek Support and Guidance: Parenting is not a solitary journey. When faced with tough decisions, reach out to other parents, mentors, or professionals for advice and support. Sharing experiences and gaining insights from others can boost your confidence and help you stay committed to doing what it takes for your child’s well-being.<br /> <br /> Remember, being a parent is a journey of growth and learning, both for you and your child. Embracing tough love when necessary is a part of that journey, shaping resilient, responsible, and compassionate individuals. Trust yourself, stay focused on your goals, and seek support when needed to navigate the challenges of parenting with love and strength. "Be present. Be incredible.

Plan Ahead:<br /> - Create a weekly meal plan that balances nutritious meals and snacks.<br /> - Prepare healthy ingredients in advance to reduce the temptation of ordering takeout or grabbing processed foods.<br /> - Consider meal prepping on weekends to have healthy options readily available during busy weekdays.<br /> <br /> 2. Choose Mindfully:<br /> - Pay attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues to avoid overeating.<br /> - Opt for whole, unprocessed foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.<br /> - Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite, chewing slowly, and enjoying the flavors and textures of your food.<br /> <br /> 3. Stay Hydrated:<br /> - Drink an adequate amount of water throughout the day to support digestion and overall health.<br /> - Limit sugary drinks and opt for water, herbal teas, or infused water for hydration.<br /> - Incorporate hydrating foods like cucumber, watermelon, and leafy greens into your meals to increase your water intake. ***Try drinking a whole lemon every day. Drinking lemon water daily can offer several health benefits, including boosting your immune system with vitamin C, aiding digestion, and promoting hydration. It may also help prevent kidney stones and potentially support weight loss efforts.

Move past what you're complaining about and do something you can actually take action on.  It's not about having all the answers. That will NEVER happen!

He did not have luck until years later. As a matter of fact, it wasn't just luck but his ability to embrace change and growth. Oh, happy, happy St. Patrick's Day! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the 5th century, in the verdant hills of Roman Britain, a boy named Maewyn Succat was born. Little did he know that his life's path would lead him on a journey of faith, perseverance, and profound transformation, ultimately earning him the title of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. At the tender age of 16, Maewyn's world was turned upside down when he was captured by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to the rugged shores of Ireland. Amidst the hardship and toil of slavery, Maewyn found solace in his faith, turning to God for strength and guidance. It was during this time of captivity that he discovered the power of prayer and the resilience of the human spirit. After six years of servitude, a divine revelation inspired Maewyn to flee his captors and seek refuge in the land of his birth. Restored to freedom, he felt a calling, a purpose stirring within his heart. Guided by a vision, Maewyn embarked on a spiritual quest that would forever alter the course of his life. Taking on the name Patrick, meaning "noble" or "fatherly," he embraced his newfound identity and devoted himself to the Christian faith. Patrick's faith was unwavering, his fervor unyielding as he traveled back to Ireland, not as a captive, but as a missionary of God's word. "Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ within me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me." ~ St. Patrick In a land steeped in ancient traditions and pagan beliefs, Patrick fearlessly preached the message of Christianity, drawing crowds with his words of love, forgiveness, and redemption. Miracles were attributed to him, and hearts were transformed by his teachings. Through his evangelism, Patrick baptized thousands, establishing churches and monasteries across the Irish landscape. Symbols of Patrick's ministry abounded - from the iconic shamrock that he used to explain the concept of the Holy Trinity, to the legendary tale of banishing serpents from the land, symbolizing the eradication of pagan rituals. His legacy lived on in the hearts of the Irish people, who revered him as a beacon of faith and a symbol of unity. As the years passed, St. Patrick's story became woven into the fabric of Irish history, his name synonymous with the spread of Christianity and the enduring spirit of the Emerald Isle. His life, marked by challenges, successes, and unwavering devotion, serves as a testament to the power of faith, resilience, and the transformative impact one individual can have on the world. St. Patrick's legacy endures as a timeless tale of courage, redemption, and the boundless grace of God. The K.I.S.S. ~ Faith and works go hand in hand!   "Faith and works are like the light and heat of a candle. You need both to see by." ~ St. Patrick Here are three practical things you can do to embrace change and growth inspired by St. Patrick:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Adaptability:<br /> Just as St. Patrick navigated his journey from captivity to becoming a missionary, embrace changes in your life with an open mind. Be adaptable and willing to step out of your comfort zone to embrace new opportunities for growth.<br /> <br /> 2. Cultivate Resilience:<br /> Draw strength from challenges, just as St. Patrick found resilience through his faith. View setbacks as opportunities for learning and personal development. Remember that true growth often stems from overcoming obstacles.<br /> <br /> 3. Seek Support and Guidance:<br /> St. Patrick's unwavering faith was a source of guidance and strength for him.

As a matter of fact, it wasn't just luck but his ability to embrace change and growth. Oh, happy, happy St. Patrick's Day! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the 5th century, in the verdant hills of Roman Britain, a boy named Maewyn Succat was born. Little did he know that his life's path would lead him on a journey of faith, perseverance, and profound transformation, ultimately earning him the title of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. At the tender age of 16, Maewyn's world was turned upside down when he was captured by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to the rugged shores of Ireland. Amidst the hardship and toil of slavery, Maewyn found solace in his faith, turning to God for strength and guidance. It was during this time of captivity that he discovered the power of prayer and the resilience of the human spirit. After six years of servitude, a divine revelation inspired Maewyn to flee his captors and seek refuge in the land of his birth. Restored to freedom, he felt a calling, a purpose stirring within his heart. Guided by a vision, Maewyn embarked on a spiritual quest that would forever alter the course of his life. Taking on the name Patrick, meaning "noble" or "fatherly," he embraced his newfound identity and devoted himself to the Christian faith. Patrick's faith was unwavering, his fervor unyielding as he traveled back to Ireland, not as a captive, but as a missionary of God's word. "Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ within me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me." ~ St. Patrick In a land steeped in ancient traditions and pagan beliefs, Patrick fearlessly preached the message of Christianity, drawing crowds with his words of love, forgiveness, and redemption. Miracles were attributed to him, and hearts were transformed by his teachings. Through his evangelism, Patrick baptized thousands, establishing churches and monasteries across the Irish landscape. Symbols of Patrick's ministry abounded - from the iconic shamrock that he used to explain the concept of the Holy Trinity, to the legendary tale of banishing serpents from the land, symbolizing the eradication of pagan rituals. His legacy lived on in the hearts of the Irish people, who revered him as a beacon of faith and a symbol of unity. As the years passed, St. Patrick's story became woven into the fabric of Irish history, his name synonymous with the spread of Christianity and the enduring spirit of the Emerald Isle. His life, marked by challenges, successes, and unwavering devotion, serves as a testament to the power of faith, resilience, and the transformative impact one individual can have on the world. St. Patrick's legacy endures as a timeless tale of courage, redemption, and the boundless grace of God. The K.I.S.S. ~ Faith and works go hand in hand!   "Faith and works are like the light and heat of a candle. You need both to see by." ~ St. Patrick Here are three practical things you can do to embrace change and growth inspired by St. Patrick:<br /> <br /> 1. Practice Adaptability:<br /> Just as St. Patrick navigated his journey from captivity to becoming a missionary, embrace changes in your life with an open mind. Be adaptable and willing to step out of your comfort zone to embrace new opportunities for growth.<br /> <br /> 2. Cultivate Resilience:<br /> Draw strength from challenges, just as St. Patrick found resilience through his faith. View setbacks as opportunities for learning and personal development. Remember that true growth often stems from overcoming obstacles.<br /> <br /> 3. Seek Support and Guidance:<br /> St. Patrick's unwavering faith was a...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1283</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,change,dreams,entrepreneurs,faith,forgiveness,goals,gratitude,habits,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/229e77fdd20e2659835b55456a2ee90e.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3638 God Turns My Darkness Into Light</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3638-god-turns-my-darkness-into-light--64911848</link><description><![CDATA[How do you measure your days?

Deep down, married life isn't all roses and rainbows. If only we could uncover what is hidden. And what is hidden? Those feelings you never share: loneliness, failure, defeat, despair, frustration, anger, shame...all the ones that you think will disappear in a few days.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    "Surely, it will get better," you repeat to yourself. So, what does your reality look like? In fact, let me ask you a more challenging question. What does your night feel like? The darker the night, there's a flood of emotions and feelings. It's almost as if the night brings out the monster feelings we attempt to ignore during the day. With a restless sleep and a weary heart, it's so tough to make it. But somehow you do, and then the sun rises. You rinse and repeat because that's what you know. But married life is not intended to be something you hate and despise. It does require work connecting two hearts. And that doesn't come easy. However, it can be accomplished. You just have to be willing to uncover what is hidden. The K.I.S.S. ~ Uncover what is hidden!   And for the most part, what is hidden is you! Maybe you think it's better to stay quiet and reserved with your words instead of speaking up and letting your voice be heard.  I want you to keep in mind that marriage is a two-way street. It takes two to have a marriage where you grow together, encourage each other, and live life well. If anyone tells you differently, they are telling a fib! But you don't have to settle for where you are right now. If you want a marriage in which two people can do life together well, it can be you!! Yet, it comes with a cost. You must uncover what is hidden. <ol> <li>Acknowledge Your Hurt - This can be a particular situation that was a one and done. Or it might be a pattern of actions that repeat themselves quite frequently with your spouse. What matters is that if it is bothering you and thoughts pop up regularly, there is something there.</li> <li>Express Yourself with Care - If you choose to hold onto hurts, they will not only destroy your marriage but also you! So, share your thoughts and feelings with your spouse. If it is something that you believe will set your spouse off in the a negative direction, be sure you share with someone you feel safe with. You don't have to do it alone. *And if you are in physical danger, please seek help!</li> <li>Forgive to move forward - You can do all the stuff, but if you are not willing to forgive your spouse, then it will lead to bitterness for you! And bitterness truly sucks the life out of you. If you think you have it bad now, when you hit the rock bottom of bitterness, it can be so emotionally and psychologically destructive. It tears you up from the inside out! But you can overcome knowing that both of you are coming together and willing to work together.</li> </ol> If you can get professional help, I would highly encourage it. And gentlemen, if you are listening, be a man and go too! If you want this to work, remember it takes two! I want you to think about this episode as a way to change what you don't want so you can have what you dreamed of for your marriage. "Be present. Be incredible.

It takes two to have a marriage where you grow together, encourage each other, and live life well. If anyone tells you differently, they are telling a fib! But you don't have to settle for where you are right now. If you want a marriage in which two people can do life together well, it can be you!! Yet, it comes with a cost. You must uncover what is hidden. <ol> <li>Acknowledge Your Hurt - This can be a particular situation that was a one and done. Or it might be a pattern of actions that repeat themselves quite frequently with your spouse. What matters is that if it is bothering you and thoughts pop up regularly, there is something there.</li> <li>Express Yourself with Care - If you choose to hold onto hurts, they will not only destroy your marriage but also you! So, share your thoughts and feelings with your spouse. If it is something that you believe will set your spouse off in the a negative direction, be sure you share with someone you feel safe with. You don't have to do it alone. *And if you are in physical danger, please seek help!</li> <li>Forgive to move forward - You can do all the stuff, but if you are not willing to forgive your spouse, then it will lead to bitterness for you! And bitterness truly sucks the life out of you. If you think you have it bad now, when you hit the rock bottom of bitterness, it can be so emotionally and psychologically destructive. It tears you up from the inside out! But you can overcome knowing that both of you are coming together and willing to work together.</li> </ol> If you can get professional help, I would highly encourage it. And gentlemen, if you are listening, be a man and go too! If you want this to work, remember it takes two! I want you to think about this episode as a way to change what you don't want so you can have what you dreamed of for your marriage. "Be present. Be incredible.

We want to give our kids what we didn't have, but at what cost and to what extremes? At some point, you must embrace how to say no without guilt. Because can you really reason with a child, no matter their age?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Absolutely not!! Yet, because we want to be that endearing parent who gives our kids what we didn't have, we try to approach situations and circumstances with a reasonable twist. But they can't reason! Their brains have not fully developed.  And, of course, you have to consider the situation and the appropriate actions. Life is ridiculous for parents, and it doesn't get easier the older they get.  What I can tell you that works best is that you are the parent, so be the parent! The K.I.S.S. ~ Be the parent!   That means you have to be the adult in the situation. You have to look at how you need to respond based on the severity, or lack thereof, and determine your next steps, especially when it comes to discipline. There are consequences in life, good or bad. Raising your kids to understand that they can get away with whatever, and there are no consequences, only sets them up for future failures and greater falls. You were given your children to raise them up to be productive human beings, not to be their best friend. Plus, you're not grandma and grandpa. They've earned the right to spoil; you have the right to discipline! So, be the parent! 1. Examine the situation for what it is. There is nothing worse than overreacting! Instead of being overly dramatic or monstrous in your reaction, take a deep breath and see the situation. Don't read into the what-ifs. Gather the facts and know the potential fallout. So long as everyone is safe, that is what counts first. Then, take the next step. 2. Choose your words wisely. When we are pushed to the limits and stressed without preparation, it's easy to jump into survival mode. Yet, being a parent requires regulated and calculated conversations. If it can wait until morning (assuming the incident happens at night), then maybe that would be better for all involved. However, if the situation calls for a "911" response by you, then think before you open your mouth. Otherwise, it might end up being a foot-in-the-mouth moment. Not good. So, choose your words wisely. 3. Know the lesson they need to learn. If you can approach the circumstance with the knowledge of what they need to get out of the mess, that will bring a sense of balance to a stressful situation. And then, you can prepare how you want to lead them into making a wiser decision, so they don't make the same mistake again.  Certainly, you have to survey the situation. But also, don't be afraid to be firm. Life is precious and so are your children. Teaching them the way to go is one of the greatest responsibilities that we have as parents. Yes, we want to give our kiddos what we didn't have, but don't let them make the same mistakes you did. As parents, we get to break the generational mishaps and make life more meaningful. Who wants to continue stuff that isn't good? Our parents did their best, and as time goes on, we can also do better. Giving that incredible gift to your child allows you to say no without guilt.

Honesty is the name of the game, and it includes all the stuff you need to reach your goals. So the question is: Do fitness gadgets tell the truth?  Now, I'm sure you're thinking, how can they not? They are digital products running on an operating system that tracks health and fitness. There's no way where they can't work. What can be wrong? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In reality, fitness gadgets are only as honest as you are truthful with yourself. And that means your work happens first before they work. Imagine the Body Pod by Hume Health, the Oura Ring Gen 4, Fitbit or Apple watch, CGMs (continuous glucose monitors), workout apps, food trackers, fitness equipment, and everything in between. There is so much to choose from, but are the serving you well, or should you even invest in them? Some of the things to consider when using fitness gadgets: 1. Inaccurate Data: Fitness gadgets may not always provide entirely accurate data, leading to misinterpretation of your health and fitness progress. Depending solely on this data can result in false assumptions about your activity levels, calorie burn, and overall well-being. 2. Overreliance on Technology: Relying too heavily on fitness gadgets can potentially detach individuals from intuitive listening to their bodies. Ignoring internal cues and prioritizing external data can lead to unhealthy habits or exercise behaviors that are not sustainable in the long run. 3. False Sense of Achievement: Constantly chasing after step counts or calorie goals set by fitness gadgets can create a false sense of achievement. This mindset may overlook other essential aspects of healthy living, such as proper nutrition, rest, and mental well-being, leading to an imbalanced approach to overall health. 4. Dependency on Motivation: While fitness gadgets can provide motivation and accountability, solely relying on them for motivation can be risky. If the gadget malfunctions or if the novelty wears off, you may struggle to stay consistent with your healthy living habits without external prompts. 5. Privacy and Security Concerns: Fitness gadgets collect a vast amount of personal data, including activity levels, sleep patterns, and sometimes even location information. Relying on these gadgets means entrusting sensitive information to technology that might not always guarantee the highest level of privacy and security, posing potential risks to personal data protection. There's a ton of stuff with all the stuff. If you want to use the latest and greatest fitness gadgets, you need to separate fact from fiction. The K.I.S.S. ~ Separate fact from fiction!   You cannot believe everything you read, or you will not succeed. Your health takes personal ownership. Only you can do the work to ensure that what you're doing actually benefits you health-wise.  So what does it look like in real life? 1. Be Realistic with Expectations If you are solely dependent on fitness gadgets, set your goals accordingly. Keep in mind that the gadgets are constructed for the average person. And if you're not average, it won't work as well for you.  2. Know what you need Use your resources when it comes to your health. Talk to your medical provider, personal trainer, spouse, or coach. Get "live" interaction with what you're doing and the reason for doing so. Also, be sure to read the reviews if you are purchasing something. Research goes a long way. 3. Use what you purchase All the bells and whistles will not melt your problems away. You have to put in the work and use what you purchase to assist in the goals you set for yourself. Remember, you are the boss, not the fitness gadget. Personally, I do believe fitness gadgets are fabulous, but your mindset will get you farther than any latest fitness gadget. Be wise where you spend your money. Your mind and body don't see the money; they only respond to your actions. Time to take A.I.M.! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Honesty is the name of the game, and it includes all the stuff you need to reach your goals. So the question is: Do fitness gadgets tell the truth?  Now, I'm sure you're thinking, how can they not? They are digital products running on an operating system that tracks health and fitness. There's no way where they can't work. What can be wrong? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In reality, fitness gadgets are only as honest as you are truthful with yourself. And that means your work happens first before they work. Imagine the Body Pod by Hume Health, the Oura Ring Gen 4, Fitbit or Apple watch, CGMs (continuous glucose monitors), workout apps, food trackers, fitness equipment, and everything in between. There is so much to choose from, but are the serving you well, or should you even invest in them? Some of the things to consider when using fitness gadgets: 1. Inaccurate Data: Fitness gadgets may not always provide entirely accurate data, leading to misinterpretation of your health and fitness progress. Depending solely on this data can result in false assumptions about your activity levels, calorie burn, and overall well-being. 2. Overreliance on Technology: Relying too heavily on fitness gadgets can potentially detach individuals from intuitive listening to their bodies. Ignoring internal cues and prioritizing external data can lead to unhealthy habits or exercise behaviors that are not sustainable in the long run. 3. False Sense of Achievement: Constantly chasing after step counts or calorie goals set by fitness gadgets can create a false sense of achievement. This mindset may overlook other essential aspects of healthy living, such as proper nutrition, rest, and mental well-being, leading to an imbalanced approach to overall health. 4. Dependency on Motivation: While fitness gadgets can provide motivation and accountability, solely relying on them for motivation can be risky. If the gadget malfunctions or if the novelty wears off, you may struggle to stay consistent with your healthy living habits without external prompts. 5. Privacy and Security Concerns: Fitness gadgets collect a vast amount of personal data, including activity levels, sleep patterns, and sometimes even location information. Relying on these gadgets means entrusting sensitive information to technology that might not always guarantee the highest level of privacy and security, posing potential risks to personal data protection. There's a ton of stuff with all the stuff. If you want to use the latest and greatest fitness gadgets, you need to separate fact from fiction. The K.I.S.S. ~ Separate fact from fiction!   You cannot believe everything you read, or you will not succeed. Your health takes personal ownership. Only you can do the work to ensure that what you're doing actually benefits you health-wise.  So what does it look like in real life? 1. Be Realistic with Expectations If you are solely dependent on fitness gadgets, set your goals accordingly. Keep in mind that the gadgets are constructed for the average person. And if you're not average, it won't work as well for you.  2. Know what you need Use your resources when it comes to your health. Talk to your medical provider, personal trainer, spouse, or coach.

In doing so, you get closer to your goals. Otherwise, you will fight yourself for what isn't possible. Therefore, master your attitude with your mind. Some of the hardest things you and I must do in life is fight our own battles in the head. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Self-talk is a real thing. And let me just say, it has nothing to do with how crazy you are. What you think about yourself, you will live out. My good friend, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Self-Talk-Stories-Yourself-Overcome/dp/1636985602/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3MUSMHBVQOL7A&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ydfYRwqg0DZwnWIPadeHdA.diwp_brBAOITQNbBCJi4-ipE0ybzebxOABueoeuMlcM&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=self+talk+marianne+renner&amp;qid=1741574579&amp;sprefix=self+talk+marianne%2Caps%2C134&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Marianne Renner, has a brand new book coming out in May 2025 called "Self-Talk: 10 Stories You Tell Yourself that Hold You Back."</a> It's the real deal in life when we get in our own way. If we're up in our heads proclaiming that something is not going to work, you're not good enough, or some other hateful thought, if you keep repeating it, you keep believing it. And how unfair to you and your dreams!  You matter. Your dreams matter. Your purpose matters. But if you are not willing to do what it takes to make the change, you are going to stay right where you are. So, today, I will assume that you want something different in life. And in order to live that out, you have to master your attitude with your mind. The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your attitude with your mind!   Imagine a life where you can navigate challenges with grace, overcome obstacles with resilience, and approach each day with positivity. Now, it's not all about affirmations and declarations. This is not about foo-foo and woo-woo. This is the real deal to make a difference in your life so you can impact the world that you touch. And it all begins with mastering your attitude through the incredible power of your mind. As we know, research has shown that our attitudes and beliefs can rewire our brains. When we choose to adopt a positive attitude, our brain releases neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, promoting feelings of happiness and well-being. This neurological process reinforces the importance of cultivating a positive mindset. However, it doesn't stop there. You still have to do the work with the thoughts that are in your mind. They don't magically disappear. If only we could wave a magic wand. LOL 😂 How you speak to yourself internally plays a crucial role in shaping your attitudes. By practicing positive self-talk and affirmations, you can reprogram your mind to focus on solutions rather than problems. As Louise Hay famously said, "You have the power to heal your life, and you need to remember this power lies within you." 1. Embrace a Growth Mindset: Psychologist Carol Dweck's research on the growth mindset highlights the importance of viewing challenges as opportunities for growth. By embracing a growth mindset, we can shift our attitudes from fear of failure to embracing learning and development. Think of the type of mindset in the direction you want to go. You can stay "fixed" or you can transition to a "growth" mindset. Do you want to stay where you are or move forward? 2. Practice Gratitude: Cultivating an attitude of gratitude has been linked to improved mental health and overall well-being. By expressing gratitude for the present moment and the blessings in your life, you can shift your focus from scarcity to abundance. Gratitude stretches your attitude, for it's genuinely a fortitude. Your presence matters. Stay in the moment and see the possibilities, not the problems.<br /> <br /> 3. Set Intentions: When you set clear intentions, it aligns your thoughts and actions toward your goals. Dream a little bigger and then put some extra thoughts behind the dream. Visiualize what can be done in the season you are in. As you give yourself permission to see what's possible, you can set your next steps into action with intention. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo You can shape your reality and experience a life filled with purpose and passion because of your presence. Create your now!

Otherwise, you will fight yourself for what isn't possible. Therefore, master your attitude with your mind. Some of the hardest things you and I must do in life is fight our own battles in the head.

And let me just say, it has nothing to do with how crazy you are. What you think about yourself, you will live out. My good friend, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Self-Talk-Stories-Yourself-Overcome/dp/1636985602/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3MUSMHBVQOL7A&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ydfYRwqg0DZwnWIPadeHdA.diwp_brBAOITQNbBCJi4-ipE0ybzebxOABueoeuMlcM&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=self+talk+marianne+renner&amp;qid=1741574579&amp;sprefix=self+talk+marianne%2Caps%2C134&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Marianne Renner, has a brand new book coming out in May 2025 called "Self-Talk: 10 Stories You Tell Yourself that Hold You Back."</a> It's the real deal in life when we get in our own way. If we're up in our heads proclaiming that something is not going to work, you're not good enough, or some other hateful thought, if you keep repeating it, you keep believing it. And how unfair to you and your dreams!  You matter. Your dreams matter. Your purpose matters. But if you are not willing to do what it takes to make the change, you are going to stay right where you are. So, today, I will assume that you want something different in life. And in order to live that out, you have to master your attitude with your mind. The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your attitude with your mind!   Imagine a life where you can navigate challenges with grace, overcome obstacles with resilience, and approach each day with positivity. Now, it's not all about affirmations and declarations. This is not about foo-foo and woo-woo. This is the real deal to make a difference in your life so you can impact the world that you touch. And it all begins with mastering your attitude through the incredible power of your mind. As we know, research has shown that our attitudes and beliefs can rewire our brains. When we choose to adopt a positive attitude, our brain releases neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, promoting feelings of happiness and well-being. This neurological process reinforces the importance of cultivating a positive mindset. However, it doesn't stop there. You still have to do the work with the thoughts that are in your mind. They don't magically disappear. If only we could wave a magic wand. LOL 😂 How you speak to yourself internally plays a crucial role in shaping your attitudes. By practicing positive self-talk and affirmations, you can reprogram your mind to focus on solutions rather than problems. As Louise Hay famously said, "You have the power to heal your life, and you need to remember this power lies within you." 1. Embrace a Growth Mindset: Psychologist Carol Dweck's research on the growth mindset highlights the importance of viewing challenges as opportunities for growth. By embracing a growth mindset, we can shift our attitudes from fear of failure to embracing learning and development. Think of the type of mindset in the direction you want to go. You can stay "fixed" or you can transition to a "growth" mindset. Do you want to stay where you are or move forward? 2. Practice Gratitude: Cultivating an attitude of gratitude has been linked to improved mental health and overall well-being. By expressing gratitude for the present moment and the blessings in your life, you can shift your focus from scarcity to abundance. Gratitude stretches your attitude, for it's genuinely a fortitude. Your presence matters.

It says in  Psalm 46:1, "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Have you ever been in trouble? Have you ever thought you might be close to the end? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We have all experienced that feeling of living life on our own. So many things piling up around us that we feel like we are coming to a breaking point. However, I want to remind you that you are not alone.  He is there for you ALL the time. Now, you might say that you disagree because you don't have the answers you want. Yet, God is still there even when you don't get what you want. Sounds all too familiar when raising kids, right? We tell them no they can't do something or have something, and they whine, walk away mad, wishing they had a different parent. We can kind of be like that with God. But I want to encourage you today: "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." ~ Psalm 46:1 The K.I.S.S. ~ God is your refuge!   By now, you've probably heard about my diagnosis of double pneumonia after the first of the new year. It was not good, mainly because I had no energy. And for a woman who is always on the go, that was a kick in the pants. I get tired or exhausted because of what I do, but not because of an illness.  So unfair. Yet that was just the beginning.  In February, we had a cold spell that took our temperatures down to 10 degrees with a wind chill at times below zero. If you're in the south, that is not the temperature you want. Plus, stuff happens when it freezes.  Well, you know all about the forced renovations inside. But I get a call while at a conference that we are having troubles with the pool. Bubbles are happening outside. I am a day from arriving home, and all I can do is watch a video and see what's going on. I call my pool man, and he says, "You've got a leak!"  Can I just say I have PTSD from water?!?  We had the crew come out and emergently winterize our pool to protect any of the working lines. There was no guarantee what was wrong, but something was WRONG!! After arriving home, we had to keep the ice from getting too thick to keep the water lines open and free from a freeze. That required us to stick the ice on the top of the pool and keep it more in chunks rather than an ice skating rink. One day, I was working on the ice and the pool, and a struck the ice with a brief pause.... And then all of sudden I had an eighth of a milli-second to decide whether or not I was going with the fall, or would fight the fall in mid-air.  YES!!! I fell into the pool with ice about 2 inches thick. God is our refuge!! The short story is I'm alive to talk about it. The long story that early afternoon was I came close to not making it. God is our refuge!! In the moments of the water and ice hitting my body, and me being pulled under the ice was a little anerving. In a brief moment, I knew I had to get out of the pool or my son would walk down the stairs and find his mom floating dead in the pool. All I could do was constantly tell myself to get above the water, keep your head above the water. As I climbed the iceburgs of Alaska in the backyard of my Tennessee swimming pool, I prayed to God to get me out. With fingernails clawing the slabs of ice, my heavy sweater wrapped around my face strangling my neck as it caught the edges of the ice. The fight was real, but God was by refuge. Somehow, I was able to pull myself over two huge slabs of ice that were about as tall as me (5 feet). Finally, I got to the shallow sunning ledge and caught my breath. Making sure I wasn't dizzy and going to pass out, I continued the climb. The climb of life is real, and so is God!!

As two become one over the years, many things shift, including who loves more or less. How to love in a one-sided marriage. Let's be real. Neither of you loves the same way. Neither of you show up committed in the same way.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, you both love each other uniquely, and at times, it can feel like you are doing everything. Then the questions begin: Why can't he love me more? Why can't he see what he's doing wrong? Why do I have to do everything in this relationship? These questions are just a sprinkle of all the doubt you thought of years ago before walking down the aisle, but now seems a little too close to reality. Let me remind you that there are seasons in marriage. You will have the roller coasters that you conquer together, but then there will be those lines only for one person. Why does it have to be this way?  Relationships ebb and flow. When you bring two people together who want to do life together, it takes work, like swimming upstream in a downstream world.  Unfair? Yes. Leads to divorce? Only if you allow it. Marriage is work, and love takes action. You have to be willing to go above and beyond. The K.I.S.S. ~ Go above and beyond!   And let me say this: Just because you put in all the work doesn't make you better than your spouse. Yes, it requires more effort and energy, but please don't discount what your spouse is doing. Usually, they are executing only what they know or have been shown.  I can definitely remember times in our marriage when I felt I was married only to myself. I'm not saying that was good, yet it was reality. If you can look at things with clarity, then you can deal with the season you are in better and get out on the other side closer. So what does it look like in the real world of marriage? 1. Know the Season so You Show Up with Reason.  Just as Fall moves into Winter, you can prep your plants, trees, and grass for the cold that moving in. It's part of the growth cycle. Marriage is the same way. There will be times when it's going to take all of you. And if you're willing, then it becomes easier actually to live out with that clarity of knowing your position in getting through the season. You won't be there long, just hold on. 2. Give Grace in the Midst of Chaos Nothing is every going to be perfect. So, if you are going to go above and beyond, you've got to give grace. There's no other way around it. Otherwise, you will be the one hurt the most because your emotions that harbor the feelings of "why can't he do more," will turn into resentment and bitterness in your heart. And that's a whole other mountain to climb. Give grace. 3. Express What You Need at the Right Time. Timing is everything! In the digital space, a phrase is thrown around: "Content is king." In marriage, timing is king. If you have concerns about money, it probably is not a good idea to talk about it right before bed. Do it when you both are well-rested. If you feel like you're holding down the fort with no help, that's a fair concern. But don't bring it up in a discussion involving who's picking up the kids when. It's not the right time! And just because we have technology at our fingertips does not mean you can say anything anytime. Remember, timing is everything. "Marriage is work, and love takes action." ~ Kristianne Wargo Don't let the excuses of your personal wants get in the way of creating the best relationship between two people. The one-sided marriage will not last forever. Be patient. Express your concerns. And be willing to go above and beyond. You can have a beautiful marriage and love deeper every day. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As two become one over the years, many things shift, including who loves more or less. How to love in a one-sided marriage. Let's be real. Neither of you loves the same way. Neither of you show up committed in the same way.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, you both love each other uniquely, and at times, it can feel like you are doing everything. Then the questions begin: Why can't he love me more? Why can't he see what he's doing wrong? Why do I have to do everything in this relationship? These questions are just a sprinkle of all the doubt you thought of years ago before walking down the aisle, but now seems a little too close to reality. Let me remind you that there are seasons in marriage. You will have the roller coasters that you conquer together, but then there will be those lines only for one person. Why does it have to be this way?  Relationships ebb and flow. When you bring two people together who want to do life together, it takes work, like swimming upstream in a downstream world.  Unfair? Yes. Leads to divorce? Only if you allow it. Marriage is work, and love takes action. You have to be willing to go above and beyond. The K.I.S.S. ~ Go above and beyond!   And let me say this: Just because you put in all the work doesn't make you better than your spouse. Yes, it requires more effort and energy, but please don't discount what your spouse is doing. Usually, they are executing only what they know or have been shown.  I can definitely remember times in our marriage when I felt I was married only to myself. I'm not saying that was good, yet it was reality. If you can look at things with clarity, then you can deal with the season you are in better and get out on the other side closer. So what does it look like in the real world of marriage? 1. Know the Season so You Show Up with Reason.  Just as Fall moves into Winter, you can prep your plants, trees, and grass for the cold that moving in. It's part of the growth cycle. Marriage is the same way. There will be times when it's going to take all of you. And if you're willing, then it becomes easier actually to live out with that clarity of knowing your position in getting through the season. You won't be there long, just hold on. 2. Give Grace in the Midst of Chaos Nothing is every going to be perfect. So, if you are going to go above and beyond, you've got to give grace. There's no other way around it. Otherwise, you will be the one hurt the most because your emotions that harbor the feelings of "why can't he do more," will turn into resentment and bitterness in your heart. And that's a whole other mountain to climb. Give grace. 3. Express What You Need at the Right Time. Timing is everything! In the digital space, a phrase is thrown around: "Content is king." In marriage, timing is king. If you have concerns about money, it probably is not a good idea to talk about it right before bed. Do it when you both are well-rested. If you feel like you're holding down the fort with no help, that's a fair concern. But don't bring it up in a discussion involving who's picking up the kids when. It's not the right time! And just because we have technology at our fingertips does not mean you can say anything anytime. Remember, timing is everything. "Marriage is work, and love takes action." ~ Kristianne Wargo Don't let the excuses of your personal wants get in the way of creating the best relationship between two people. The one-sided marriage will not last forever. Be patient. Express your concerns. And be willing to go above and beyond. You can have a beautiful marriage and love deeper every day. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>805</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,reconciliation,relationships,togetherness,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2269912cf021b02f149bca0c776687d5.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3629 Stretch Them So You Don't Shrink Them</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3629-stretch-them-so-you-don-t-shrink-them--64744485</link><description><![CDATA[Raising kids can be the pits sometimes. You want to do everything for them, but they still don't get it. Why can't they do what we teach? Remember, as a parent, you are called to stretch them so you don't shrink them. How has your week gone with the kids? Or maybe you're without them, but you are never not a parent. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Do you get mad because that's the only way to get their attention? Or do you speak in whispers to draw them in closer? Parenting is super confusing. At one point, you think you have it all figured out. Yet, less than hours later, you are putting out a fire that you just told them not to do. Motherhood is a sham! Just kidding--LOL! Seriously, though, it is a TON of work that does not come with a manual. If there is one thing that I've learned from raising five kiddos is to stretch them so you don't shrink them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stretch them, not to shrink them!   The strength of children is found in the ceiling. First you want a firm foundation, but the ceiling is what determines how far they will go. This means that wherever you hold the expectation, they will either rise to it or shrink back because it's too easy. My Dad always dreamed BIG!! Nothing was too BIG for my dad. And that's probably why I had dreams of going to the Olympics, becoming Miss America, and being an OB/GYN physician. Oh, how small were my dreams. But let me tell you, I may not have achieved any of them for a variety of reasons (which really doesn't matter), the thought of going after them was well worth the dreams because of all the lessons learned had I not tried at all. How are you teaching your children? Do you make it easy for them to achieve, or do you raise the bar for them to attempt and maybe even succeed? If you want to be that parent who leads with love to serve them well, you want to stretch them, not to shrink them. <ol> <li>Raise the Bar: Your child is created for more, regardless of whether you can see it or not. When you give a gentle stretch to keep them reaching, you assist them in learning new life skills and training their mindset that nothing is impossible.</li> <li>Lower Your Goals: Your children are not living your life. So don't make what they are doing all about you! Instead, open their eyes to see what's possible and help them dream bigger.</li> <li>Dream the Impossible: With today's technology, dreaming has become less prevalent in our society. Have you heard of ChatGPT? Well, if it's the only thing that's dreaming, our children are in trouble. So, rip what holds your child back. Encourage them to dream the impossible.</li> </ol> Our minds have not changed, but our attitudes have. Don't let the sun go down on your children.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Life has had me in the swirls and twirls of everything.  And as much as I would like to say I didn't have control, I didn't! However, I did have control over how I responded.  I think that's something that we tend to forget when we are going about our every day. We just show up and keep doing what we think we know, hitting the brick walls and bouncing off of them. But when you experience enough knockouts, you figure a way to rise up. Because no matter what you think, you still get to choose! The K.I.S.S. ~ You still get to choose!   And really, it all comes from my craziness these past few months. I have been burning the candle at not two ends but twenty ends. Yep! Chop me up and light the torch; I'm melting.  It has been pretty much my life since probably about mid-year 2024. I was doing pretty well keeping everything melted and being able to have it settle down from time to time. But then right after the holidays, it all stopped. You know when your body says enough is enough, you have no choice but to listen. And that's what I did. I chose how I needed to respond to the chaos. What about you? Are you burning the candle at 10 ends, not just two? You don't have to live that way. In fact, I would tell you to stop and smell the roses before something drastic happens. There's nothing better than your mind and body telling you exactly what you need to do. Sometimes, it's by force, and other times it's a choice. What do you choose today? "Be present. Be incredible.

Life has had me in the swirls and twirls of everything.  And as much as I would like to say I didn't have control, I didn't! However, I did have control over how I responded.  I think that's something that we tend to forget when we are going about our every day. We just show up and keep doing what we think we know, hitting the brick walls and bouncing off of them. But when you experience enough knockouts, you figure a way to rise up. Because no matter what you think, you still get to choose! The K.I.S.S. ~ You still get to choose!   And really, it all comes from my craziness these past few months. I have been burning the candle at not two ends but twenty ends. Yep! Chop me up and light the torch; I'm melting.  It has been pretty much my life since probably about mid-year 2024. I was doing pretty well keeping everything melted and being able to have it settle down from time to time. But then right after the holidays, it all stopped. You know when your body says enough is enough, you have no choice but to listen. And that's what I did. I chose how I needed to respond to the chaos. What about you? Are you burning the candle at 10 ends, not just two? You don't have to live that way. In fact, I would tell you to stop and smell the roses before something drastic happens. There's nothing better than your mind and body telling you exactly what you need to do. Sometimes, it's by force, and other times it's a choice. What do you choose today? "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Just when you think you can enjoy the lemonade you made, you find yourself wrestling with lemons. There is no reason to fall into the trap of oh woes me. You can rebound after a reset.  How has 2025 started for you? Has it been everything you wanted it to be?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Well, if you are a regular, or maybe you've been listening for a few episodes, after Christmas, I took a brief holiday. We had planned a surprise visit for my mom in Kansas City, along with my sister and niece who flew in from Hawaii. No one knew what was happening except my brother and my family. We couldn't wait, and just as I tell you every day, presence matters. So I decided that break of about a week would be good. Oh-- we also got to celebrate my Aunt and Uncle's 50th <br /> Wedding Anniversary. That was a surprise for them, too. Between traveling for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and then, making a long trip to KC, all the craziness got the best of me. Right after the anniversary celebration, I go so sick. I laid in the hotel room and couldn't even visit with my family. Once we returned home, I still wasn't feeling myself. Tired all the time with no energy. And as you know, that is very unusual for me.  Finally, I decided to go to urgent care because I wasn't getting any better. When they listened to my lungs, the PA said, you most likely have pneumonia. Long story short, after the chest x-ray, I was diagnosed with double pneumonia. She was right, and I was exhausted.  I'm not one who gets sick very often; literally once in a blue moon. But this one was different. It was sort of a reset. Time I needed that I didn't make time for. Have you ever run into that. Your body just gives out because you've given so much? Our life cannot be filled to the brim all the time, because eventually you break. My dear friend, mentor, and coach - You name it, his presence was known-- Dan Miller. In fact, he went home exactly a year ago tomorrow. But he would say always, you can't lead from an empty cup. Your cup has to be full. He believed in investing in yourself, making sure your cup was filled so you in turn could fill others. What about you? Are you enjoying that lemonade or more like wrestling with the lemons? You can rebound after a reset; you just have to want to. The K.I.S.S. ~ You have to want it!   A reset doesn't just happen. It comes from a commitment within; consider it your internal dialogue with God, your divine rod. I had to make time to let my body heal. A lot of you reached out and asked where I was and if everything was okay. I so appreciate you, my extended family! Yet, you can bounce back to the rebound from the reset. But you have to want it. And that's my question to you today. How bad do you want what is missing? Maybe it's something you left behind. Maybe it's something within your career. Maybe it's something brand new. Whatever it is, you have to want it. It's not just going to come back from where you left off. In fact, it might morph into something different or even more special and unique.  The cool thing is that you get to decide. You get to show up. You get to accept the playbook the way you want to write it. So let me ask you again, how bad do you want it? It's time to rebound after a reset! God's got you. Don't be afraid.  "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

With hearts open and spirits light, We welcome the promise of a future bright.   As the old year gracefully takes its leave, We stand on the threshold of new dreams to weave. May hope be our guiding star, Leading us to destinations near and far.   In this moment of quiet reflection, We find strength in divine connection. Renewed, revitalized, and ready to soar, We step into the New Year, now and evermore.   Wishing you a joyous and blessed New Year filled with peace, prosperity, and purpose.

In the midst of the shopping frenzy and holiday chaos, let us take a moment to reflect on the profound miracle of the Incarnation and the fulfillment of God's promise to send a Savior into the world.

Luke 2:1-20 2 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register. 4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” 15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. Born in a stable, wrapped in swaddling clothes, and laid in a manger, the Son of God entered the world in unprecedented humility. This act of divine love and sacrifice is a powerful reminder of God's unwavering commitment to His people. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the true gift!   As we contemplate the significance of this event, we are also confronted with the reality that the arrival of Jesus Christ did not instantly solve all the world's problems. The gift of our Savior is a reminder that while we may still face struggles and imperfections in this life, we are not alone. Just as Mary and Joseph faced uncertainty and challenges, we, too, can find comfort and strength in knowing that God is with us. Imagine the emotions that Mary, the mother of Jesus, must have experienced as she cradled her newborn son in her arms. Despite being chosen for a profound purpose, Mary was undoubtedly filled with doubts and fears, just like many of us mothers today. Yet, in her obedience and faith, Mary embraced the gift of Jesus with open arms, trusting in God's plan for her life. Are you ready this season to embrace the true gift, trusting in God's plan for your life? "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 You are called to carry the gift of Jesus in your heart and share it with the world around you. Whether through acts of kindness, words of encouragement, or gestures of love, you can reflect the light of Christ to those you encounter. Like Mary, let us approach each day with faith and grace, knowing that we are called to be bearers of God's love and mercy. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ this Christmas season, let us remember the true meaning of this joyous occasion. May we take inspiration from Mary, who embraced the gift of her Son with courage and humility. And may we, too, carry this precious gift in our hearts and share it with all those we meet, spreading the message of hope and redemption to a world in need. In embracing the true gift of Jesus Christ, we find solace, strength, and salvation. May His birth serve as a reminder of God's infinite love for us and His promise of eternal life. Let us continue to carry this gift in our hearts, knowing that we are called to be ambassadors of His grace and bearers of His light to a world in darkness. Let His light shine through your heart while you embrace the true gift of Jesus Christ. From my family to yours, Merry Christmas! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #MerryChristmas 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Amidst the final touches and rushes of people grabbing last-minute dinner ingredients and gifts, let's take a moment to reflect on the power of your voice and the impact it can have on the world around you.

In the midst of the chaos and challenges that life throws our way, it can be easy to get bogged down by the negativity that surrounds us. From news stories highlighting the worst of humanity to personal struggles that weigh heavily on our minds, it's all too common to feel overwhelmed by the CRAP (Challenges, Rejections, Adversities or Problems -OR- Conflicts, Rejections, Anxieties, or Pressures) of life. However, what if you made a conscious effort to lift your voice and spread goodwill instead? What if you chose to focus on the good news, the stories of hope and kindness that often go unnoticed? By intentionally choosing to amplify positivity and goodness, you not only transform your own outlook on life but also have the potential to inspire and uplift others in ways you may never realize. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lift your voice!   The power of our voices is not to be underestimated. In the Bible, we are reminded of the importance of using our words for good. Proverbs 18:21 states, "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit." Our words have the ability to build others up or tear them down, to spread love or sow discord. By choosing to speak words of encouragement, kindness, and faith, you have the opportunity to make a lasting impact on those around you. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the ultimate example of love and selflessness, let us be inspired to follow in His footsteps and share that love with others. Just as His birth forever changed the world, imagine the difference you could make by choosing to change the world through your actions and words today. So, as you gather with loved ones this Christmas Eve and prepare for the joy of Christmas Day, remember the incredible power you hold in your voice. Lift it up with intention, spread positivity and hope, and watch as your words create ripples of change that reach far beyond what you could ever imagine. Let's make a difference, one word at a time.

Imagine what it would be like to approach the holidays with the reason for the season followed by your purpose and passion of the heart. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How would you feel if. you could enjoy the calm of a peaceful and joyful season with all the chaos that swirls around you. You would have thought a snownado, sometimes referred to as a snow devil, would be the only thing swirling around.  But you deserve to enjoy the holidays just as much as each fallen snowflake, because we all need a few Olafs in our lives. So instead of wondering your way to a quick drink to take the edge off, cheers to the holiday stress with less mess. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cheers to the Holiday Stress with Less Mess!   All of us need a little cheer that will prepare our hearts and minds for the joy, chaos, and meaningful moments this Christmas season, allowing us to embrace the holiday spirit with purpose, passion, and presence. Let's get ready to prepare your heart and mind; C.H.E.E.R.S.! C - Cultivate Gratitude Practicing gratitude during the holiday season can bring a sense of peace and contentment. By acknowledging the blessings in your life, big or small, you shift your focus from what's lacking to what's abundant. "Gratitude turns what we have into enough. ~ Kristianne Wargo"  H - Have Fun Amidst the hustle and bustle of the holidays, don't forget to have fun and enjoy the festive spirit. Engage in activities that bring you joy, whether it's baking cookies, decorating the house, or watching a classic holiday movie. Laughter and merriment are essential components of a memorable holiday season.  E - Embrace Imperfection Let go of the pressure to create a perfect holiday experience. Embrace imperfections and mishaps as opportunities for spontaneity and growth. Progress, not perfection.

Beyond the gifts and decorations, a story of how love came down was born. In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, amidst the twinkling lights and cheerful carols, it's all too easy to lose sight of the profound significance of Christmas. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This love came down from heaven as a tiny baby, born in a humble manger over two thousand years ago. John 3:16-17 captures the essence of this great love: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." This is truly the heart of Christmas, the birth of Jesus Christ. The incarnation of Jesus Christ is a mystery and a marvel if you let your human logic take over. But what about your faith? The Almighty God, the Creator of the universe, chose to enter into His creation as a vulnerable, helpless infant. This act of humility and sacrifice is beyond human comprehension, yet it speaks volumes about the depths of God's love for us. In Jesus, we see love in action: love made tangible, love reaching out to embrace a broken and hurting world. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love came down!   As we continue our journey through the season of Advent, it is a time to reflect on the divine love that came down to us in the form of a little baby. It is a love that knows no bounds, a love that is willing to go to any lengths to save and redeem humanity. It is a love that calls us to respond in kind—to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. So this Christmas, as we exchange gifts and share meals with loved ones, let us not forget the true reason for the season. Let us pause and ponder the miracle of the incarnation, the miracle of Love coming down from heaven to dwell among us. And may this wondrous love fill our hearts with joy, peace, and gratitude as we celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Love came down that first Christmas night, and it continues to shine brightly in our lives today. May you always be reminded of the incredible love that was demonstrated through the birth of Jesus Christ, and may it inspire us to love others with the same selfless, sacrificial love. This Christmas, let us rejoice in the love that came down for us. "Be present. Be incredible.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Think outside the holiday norm!   Here are some creative ideas for couples to spend meaningful time together this holiday season. 1. Candlelit Dinner Date: Set aside an evening for a cozy candlelit dinner at home or a favorite restaurant. Take the time to savor a delicious meal and engage in heartfelt conversations. 2. DIY Gift Exchange: Rather than getting swept up in extravagant gifts, challenge each other to create personalized DIY gifts. It's a thoughtful way to show your love and creativity. 3. Holiday Movie Marathon: Cozy up on the couch with some hot cocoa and indulge in a holiday movie marathon. It's a simple yet intimate way to unwind and enjoy each other's company. 4. Volunteer Together: Spread joy and kindness by volunteering at a local charity or community event. Doing good together can deepen your bond and create lasting memories. Remember, the moments we share with our loved ones are the true gifts of the season. Let's make this holiday one to cherish and remember for years to come. And now, a special rendition of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' for couples this Christmas (by Kristianne Wargo) Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas would soon be there.   But amidst all the presents and holiday cheer, Couples snuggled up, with their loved ones near. For the true magic of Christmas, they knew in their hearts, Was the love they shared, a bond never to part.   So this holiday season, remember the magic of togetherness, And cherish each moment, filled with love and gracefulness. May your days be merry, your hearts be light, And your love shine bright, throughout the silent night.   "In the midst of the holiday rush, let's pause to savor the gift of love we have in each other." ~ Kristianne Wargo Let's make this Christmas a truly special one, filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories with our beloved partners.

DIY Gift Exchange: Rather than getting swept up in extravagant gifts, challenge each other to create personalized DIY gifts. It's a thoughtful way to show your love and creativity. 3. Holiday Movie Marathon: Cozy up on the couch with some hot cocoa and indulge in a holiday movie marathon. It's a simple yet intimate way to unwind and enjoy each other's company. 4. Volunteer Together: Spread joy and kindness by volunteering at a local charity or community event. Doing good together can deepen your bond and create lasting memories. Remember, the moments we share with our loved ones are the true gifts of the season. Let's make this holiday one to cherish and remember for years to come. And now, a special rendition of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' for couples this Christmas (by Kristianne Wargo) Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas would soon be there.   But amidst all the presents and holiday cheer, Couples snuggled up, with their loved ones near. For the true magic of Christmas, they knew in their hearts, Was the love they shared, a bond never to part.   So this holiday season, remember the magic of togetherness, And cherish each moment, filled with love and gracefulness. May your days be merry, your hearts be light, And your love shine bright, throughout the silent night.   "In the midst of the holiday rush, let's pause to savor the gift of love we have in each other." ~ Kristianne Wargo Let's make this Christmas a truly special one, filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories with our beloved partners. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But what if you knew that it's good to be scared? Embracing fear can open up your heart to see more than what you think you see in the moment. It pushes and pulls you in all different directions.

It's in these moments of uncertainty and vulnerability that you get to choose how you want to grow and evolve as a parent. As I always say, "The right thing and the hard thing are the same thing." Now, that doesn't make it easier, yet it gives you a reality check as to where you are so you can make adjustments to where you need to go. Embracing fear allows you to confront the challenges head-on rather than shying away from them. "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it." - Nelson Mandela The K.I.S.S. ~ It's good to be scared!   I really want you to embrace that for yourself. Maybe that's the permission you need this holiday season to enjoy it more, to let your heart be present, not just your to-do list. Being a parent is undoubtedly one of the toughest jobs in the world. It requires patience, empathy, and a whole lot of courage. When faced with situations where our children push our buttons, test our limits, or make mistakes, it's easy to feel scared and overwhelmed. However, it's precisely in these moments that we have the chance to show up as the best version of ourselves. "Parenting is about growing up as much as it is about raising kids." ~ Kristianne Wargo Mom, it's time to embrace that fear because it's good to be scared. 1. Practice self-compassion: Remember that it's okay to feel scared and vulnerable as a parent. Be kind to yourself during challenging moments. 2. Seek support: Reach out to friends, family, or a therapist or coach for guidance and encouragement when you're feeling overwhelmed. 3. Embrace imperfection: Accept that parenting is a journey filled with ups and downs, and that making mistakes is a natural part of the process. As we navigate the holiday season and all the joys and challenges it brings, let's remember that it's good to be scared. But scared in a manner that serves! Embracing fear allows us to step into our power as parents, to grow, learn, and connect with our children in profound ways. So, this Christmas season, embrace your fears, lean into the discomfort, and give yourself permission to be immersed in growing as you emerge stronger and wiser with more hope than ever before.

Think about this: What if you were to reconnect with the essence of the season? The true essence of the holiday season lies not in the extravagance of decorations or the number of gifts under the tree, but in the joy of giving, the warmth of togetherness, and the spirit of love and compassion. This season is a time for reflection, gratitude, and spreading kindness to others. And what if you changed your perspective so you could change your experience? It's time to shift your perspective from one of stress and chaos to one of intention and mindfulness. Ask yourself, what does this season truly mean to you? How can you align your actions with your values and intentions to create a holiday experience that resonates with your heart? The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the magic of the season!   Just because the world wants you to feel out of sorts doesn't mean your heart has to. Choose presence over presents! Seeing all the packages wrapped under the tree is beautiful; it's the jewels that ground the tree. But why let a world filled with materialism and consumerism get you all caught up in the frenzy of holiday shopping and gift-giving? If you have the time and the resources to put all those gifts under the tree, then by all means. However, don't forget about your presence. That is the best thing to ground any holiday. Quality time spent with loved ones, heartfelt conversations, and acts of kindness can often be more meaningful than any material gift. As the days grow shorter and the nights longer, let your light shine brightly for all to see. Embrace the magic of the season by being true to yourself, doing what matters most to your heart, and spreading joy wherever you go. Your authentic presence and genuine connections with others are the true gifts of the season. The holiday season offers us a precious opportunity to slow down, reconnect with what truly matters, and embrace the magic of the season. "Be present. Be incredible.

You might want to be all snuggly and warm, but you should be dashing through the snow. I get it. The holiday season may be synonymous with cozy fires, warm blankets, and hot cocoa, but perhaps it's time to shift our perspective and see the beauty in the chill of winter. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From invigorating our minds to revitalizing our bodies and uplifting our spirits, the cold has much to offer those daring enough to venture out into its wintry wonderland. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dashing through the snow!   MIND 1. Clarity Amidst the Chill: The crisp, cold air has a way of sharpening our focus and clearing the mental fog that often clouds our thoughts. Breathing in the icy freshness can awaken our senses and invigorate our minds, providing a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. 2. Creativity in the Frost: There's something about the winter chill that sparks our creativity and inspires us to think outside the box. Whether it's sketching snowflakes on frost-covered windows or writing poetry as delicate as a snowflake, the cold can be a muse for our artistic endeavors. 3. Mindfulness in the Silence: As the world around us hunkers down under a blanket of snow, the stillness and serenity of winter can offer a moment of respite for our overworked minds. Embracing the quietude of the season can help us practice mindfulness and appreciate the simple beauty of the moment; be present! BODY 1. Energizing Cold Showers: While the thought of a cold shower may send shivers down your spine, the benefits are worth the initial shock. Cold showers have been shown to boost circulation, strengthen the immune system, and even improve mood, making them a refreshing way to kickstart your day. 2. Winter Workouts: Embrace the chill by taking your workout outdoors. Whether it's ice skating, snowshoeing, or even just building a snowman, getting active in the cold can burn more calories, improve endurance, and strengthen your body against the elements. 3. Spa-like Ice Treatments: Treat yourself to the invigorating benefits of cold therapy with an at-home ice facial or cryotherapy session. Cold treatments can reduce inflammation, tighten skin, and promote overall wellness, leaving you feeling refreshed and revitalized. SPIRIT 1. Resilience in the Frost: Just as winter tests the resilience of nature, the cold can help us discover our own inner strength and endurance. Facing the chill head-on can build resilience, courage, and a sense of accomplishment as we navigate the challenges of the season. 2. Connection Through Coziness: As the temperature drops, we often find solace in the warmth of home and hearth. The cold can be a catalyst for creating cozy moments with loved ones, from snuggling up by the fire to sharing stories over a steaming cup of tea, deepening our connections and fostering a sense of community. 3. Joy in Simple Pleasures: In the midst of the holiday rush, the cold can remind us to slow down, savor the moment, and find joy in simple pleasures. Whether it's the beauty of a snowflake or the warmth of a hug, embracing the cold can help us appreciate the little things that bring light to our lives. So this holiday season, instead of shying away from the chill, dare to dash through the snow with open arms and an open heart. Embrace the transformative power of cold, and let its frosty embrace awaken your mind, revitalize your body, and uplift your spirit in ways you never imagined possible. "Be present. Be incredible.

You might want to be all snuggly and warm, but you should be dashing through the snow. I get it. The holiday season may be synonymous with cozy fires, warm blankets, and hot cocoa, but perhaps it's time to shift our perspective and see the beauty in the chill of winter. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From invigorating our minds to revitalizing our bodies and uplifting our spirits, the cold has much to offer those daring enough to venture out into its wintry wonderland. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dashing through the snow!   MIND 1. Clarity Amidst the Chill: The crisp, cold air has a way of sharpening our focus and clearing the mental fog that often clouds our thoughts. Breathing in the icy freshness can awaken our senses and invigorate our minds, providing a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. 2. Creativity in the Frost: There's something about the winter chill that sparks our creativity and inspires us to think outside the box. Whether it's sketching snowflakes on frost-covered windows or writing poetry as delicate as a snowflake, the cold can be a muse for our artistic endeavors. 3. Mindfulness in the Silence: As the world around us hunkers down under a blanket of snow, the stillness and serenity of winter can offer a moment of respite for our overworked minds. Embracing the quietude of the season can help us practice mindfulness and appreciate the simple beauty of the moment; be present! BODY 1. Energizing Cold Showers: While the thought of a cold shower may send shivers down your spine, the benefits are worth the initial shock. Cold showers have been shown to boost circulation, strengthen the immune system, and even improve mood, making them a refreshing way to kickstart your day. 2. Winter Workouts: Embrace the chill by taking your workout outdoors. Whether it's ice skating, snowshoeing, or even just building a snowman, getting active in the cold can burn more calories, improve endurance, and strengthen your body against the elements. 3. Spa-like Ice Treatments: Treat yourself to the invigorating benefits of cold therapy with an at-home ice facial or cryotherapy session. Cold treatments can reduce inflammation, tighten skin, and promote overall wellness, leaving you feeling refreshed and revitalized. SPIRIT 1. Resilience in the Frost: Just as winter tests the resilience of nature, the cold can help us discover our own inner strength and endurance. Facing the chill head-on can build resilience, courage, and a sense of accomplishment as we navigate the challenges of the season. 2.

So this holiday season, instead of shying away from the chill, dare to dash through the snow with open arms and an open heart. Embrace the transformative power of cold, and let its frosty embrace awaken your mind, revitalize your body, and uplift your spirit in ways you never imagined possible. "Be present. Be incredible.

It is time to step into your greatness and showcase to yourself and to the world the true value you hold within. You can't let what you think about yourself hold you back. It's crucial to recognize your worth and acknowledge that you are created on purpose, for a purpose. And at times, you need to remind yourself that you are incredible! You are worthy of your dreams. You have talents that need to be shared.  "Don't hide yourself from the world because your shadow is bigger than your belief. Rise to the occasion and be who you are becoming." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Be who you are becoming!   Here are three actionable steps to start embracing your inner prize: 1. Believe in Yourself: The foundation of recognizing your worth starts with believing in yourself. Trust your abilities, talents, and passions. "How you show up in life does matter.” ~ Kristianne Wargo By believing in yourself, you pave the way for others to see your true potential. 2. Take A.I.M. (Inspired Action): Don't let fear or self-doubt hinder you from taking inspired action towards your goals. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and push yourself out of your comfort zone. "The reflection you see has a lasting effect on your confidence and how you believe." ~ Kristianne Wargo By taking inspired action, you reaffirm your belief in your worth as the prize. 3. Cultivate Self-Confidence: Building self-confidence is a journey that requires practice and self-love. Surround yourself with positivity, set achievable goals, and celebrate more failures than successes. "You must realize your greatness within so others can see it, too." ~ Kristianne Wargo By cultivating self-confidence, you exude the essence of being the prize in every aspect of your life. What all this does is allow you to handle the C.R.A.P. in life, so you can enjoy the successes along the way It's time to embrace your uniqueness, showcase your talents, and remember that you are the prize. Now, you get to show others. Believe in yourself and inspire others to do the same. You are the prize – it's time to shine! "Be present. Be incredible.

In the hustle and bustle of holiday preparations, let us pause and reflect on the abundance of joy. A joy that only Jesus Christ can bring into our lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the Gospel of Luke, we are reminded of the shepherds who received the good news of great joy from the angels: "And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.'" (Luke 2:8-11) Like the shepherds, we too can experience great joy in knowing that Jesus came into this world to bring us salvation and eternal life. In the midst of our busy lives, let us take a moment to count our blessings and reflect on the abundant joy that God has graciously bestowed upon us. The K.I.S.S. ~ The abundance of joy!   Think about the joy that fills your heart when you spend time with loved ones, when you witness acts of kindness and compassion, and when you feel the presence of God in your life. These moments of joy are reminders of God's faithfulness and love towards us. As we journey through this season of waiting and anticipating, let us cultivate an attitude of gratitude and thanksgiving. Let us be grateful for the gift of salvation, for the love of family and friends, and for the hope that Jesus brings into our lives. In the words of the apostle Paul, "Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) May our hearts overflow with joy and gratitude as we celebrate the birth of our Savior and experience the abundant blessings that come from knowing Him. Let us rejoice and be glad, for the joy of the Lord is our strength. May the light of Christ shine brightly in our lives this Christmas season and bring us peace, hope, and everlasting joy.  "Be present. Be incredible.

But for us parents, remove the stress of scheduling and lean into how holiday traditions become your child's routine. Amidst all the craziness, one way to find joy and create a sense of stability for your child is by turning holiday traditions into their routine. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    "When holiday traditions become your child's routine, it not only brings a sense of comfort and familiarity but also strengthens the family bond." ~ Kristianne Wargo If you want to add holiday traditions that help to stimulate your child's routine and keep them on point, all you need to do is build the calm in the comfort. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build the calm in the comfort!   Here are three creative ways parents can make holiday traditions a part of their child's routine: 1. Create a Holiday Routine Chart: Design a visually appealing chart that outlines the different holiday traditions and activities your family will participate in. Involve your child in decorating the chart and have them place stickers or checkmarks next to each completed task. For example, if baking cookies is a tradition, have a designated day each week for cookie baking and involve your child in the process. This not only creates a sense of anticipation but also gives them a sense of accomplishment. "By creating a holiday routine chart, you are providing structure and predictability for your child, which can help reduce anxiety and enhance their overall holiday experience." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Incorporate Daily Rituals: Infuse holiday traditions into your child's daily routine to make them feel special and festive throughout the season.

By incorporating holiday traditions into these rituals, you are weaving joy and connection into their everyday lives." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3.

"Personalizing family traditions fosters a sense of identity and belonging for your child. It reinforces the idea that traditions are not just activities but expressions of love and unity within the family." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing holiday traditions as part of your child's routine, you are not only creating magical moments but also instilling values of love, togetherness, and joy that will last a lifetime.

But for us parents, remove the stress of scheduling and lean into how holiday traditions become your child's routine. Amidst all the craziness, one way to find joy and create a sense of stability for your child is by turning holiday traditions into their routine. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The K.I.S.S. ~ Build the calm in the comfort!   Here are three creative ways parents can make holiday traditions a part of their child's routine: 1. Create a Holiday Routine Chart: Design a visually appealing chart that outlines the different holiday traditions and activities your family will participate in. Involve your child in decorating the chart and have them place stickers or checkmarks next to each completed task. For example, if baking cookies is a tradition, have a designated day each week for cookie baking and involve your child in the process. This not only creates a sense of anticipation but also gives them a sense of accomplishment. "By creating a holiday routine chart, you are providing structure and predictability for your child, which can help reduce anxiety and enhance their overall holiday experience." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Incorporate Daily Rituals: Infuse holiday traditions into your child's daily routine to make them feel special and festive throughout the season.

But why blend in when you were born to stand out, to shine brightly like a beacon in the night sky? The K.I.S.S. ~ Never settle for less!   As you bask in the holiday season, let it be a powerful reminder to embrace your uniqueness and never settle for anything less than what you deserve. Life is a continuous journey of growth and self-discovery. It's about breaking free from the chains of comfort and complacency to become the best version of yourself. While the familiar may seem safe and inviting, it is in stepping outside of your comfort zone that true magic happens. We all have a spark within us waiting to ignite a blaze of greatness. It's time to let that light shine as brightly as the holiday lights that adorn our homes and streets. Embrace your individuality, follow your passions, and strive for excellence in everything you do. You were not put on this earth merely to exist – you were created on purpose, for a purpose: a unique essence that sets you apart from the rest. As we gather with loved ones during the holiday season, give yourself the best gift by not settling for less. Encourage yourself to break free from the shackles of self-doubt and fear and embrace the limitless potential that resides within you. Remember, change is inevitable, and growth is optional. Choose to embrace the journey of who you are becoming and chasing your dreams with unwavering determination. Dare to be different, to be bold, to be unapologetically you! Never settle for less. So this holiday season, as you bask in the warmth of love and joy, remember to look within and unleash the full extent of your brilliance. Let your light illuminate the path ahead, guiding you toward a future filled with boundless possibilities. Embrace who you are becoming, for the world is waiting for the unique gift that only you can bring. "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't give in to the disruption during the holidays. Fast track your way to healthy living. All the hustle and bustle of your multiple lists can often throw a wrench in our health and wellness routines. That's assuming we have them. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's pretty easy to let some things go when you are stressed. However, it's crucial to remember that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is not about restriction but rather about finding a harmonious balance that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit. Why let the holidays disrupt your well-being when you can navigate the season with grace and intention? "Indulging in a few holiday treats shouldn't come at the expense of your health. It's all about enjoying the moments without compromising your well-being." ~ Kristianne Wargo So let me ask you: Are you compromising your health? What if you put yourself first this holiday season, yet still permitted yourself to enjoy the tantalizing treats? How would that change your perspective? How would that change your reflection? If you want to fast track your health, use what you already have. The K.I.S.S. ~ Use what's here!   Here are three fundamental strategies to help you fast track your way to health and vitality during the holidays by utilizing the resources already available to you. 1. Mindful Choices: Rather than viewing holiday treats as off-limits, practice mindful decision-making. Allow yourself to savor small portions of your favorite indulgences while being conscious of your body's hunger and satisfaction cues. By incorporating mindfulness into your eating habits, you can enjoy the flavors of the season without guilt or excess. "When you approach holiday eating with mindfulness, you can savor the experience without overindulging. It's about nourishing your memories." 2. Movement and Joy: Staying active during the holidays is key to supporting your overall well-being. Whether it's taking a winter walk, dancing to festive music, or engaging in a fun workout with loved ones, find ways to infuse joy into physical activity. Movement not only helps burn calories but also uplifts your spirit and enhances your sense of well-being. "When you move, you feel alive!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Self-Care Rituals: Amidst the holiday chaos, prioritize self-care rituals that nourish your mind, body, and spirit. Set aside time for relaxation, meditation, adequate sleep, and activities that replenish your energy reserves. By tending to your holistic well-being, you can approach the season with a sense of calm and vitality. "Self-care is the foundation of a thriving life. By honoring your needs and nurturing your well-being, you can navigate the holidays with grace and intention." In essence, healthy living during the holidays is not about deprivation or perfection but about cultivating a sense of balance, joy, and self-care. By using the tools and resources available to you, you can fast track your journey to health and well-being, even amidst the festive celebrations. "Healthy living is a reflection of self-love and empowerment. Embrace the abundance of the season by utilizing what's here – your inner strength, mindful choices, and self-care practices – to create a holiday season that nourishes both your mind, body, and spirit." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember that the holidays are a time for celebration and joy – and that includes celebrating your health and vitality. With a mindset of balance and moderation, you can savor the season while staying true to your well-being goals. "Be present. Be incredible.

All the hustle and bustle of your multiple lists can often throw a wrench in our health and wellness routines. That's assuming we have them. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's pretty easy to let some things go when you are stressed. However, it's crucial to remember that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is not about restriction but rather about finding a harmonious balance that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit. Why let the holidays disrupt your well-being when you can navigate the season with grace and intention? "Indulging in a few holiday treats shouldn't come at the expense of your health. It's all about enjoying the moments without compromising your well-being." ~ Kristianne Wargo So let me ask you: Are you compromising your health? What if you put yourself first this holiday season, yet still permitted yourself to enjoy the tantalizing treats? How would that change your perspective? How would that change your reflection? If you want to fast track your health, use what you already have. The K.I.S.S. ~ Use what's here!   Here are three fundamental strategies to help you fast track your way to health and vitality during the holidays by utilizing the resources already available to you. 1. Mindful Choices: Rather than viewing holiday treats as off-limits, practice mindful decision-making. Allow yourself to savor small portions of your favorite indulgences while being conscious of your body's hunger and satisfaction cues. By incorporating mindfulness into your eating habits, you can enjoy the flavors of the season without guilt or excess. "When you approach holiday eating with mindfulness, you can savor the experience without overindulging. It's about nourishing your memories." 2. Movement and Joy: Staying active during the holidays is key to supporting your overall well-being. Whether it's taking a winter walk, dancing to festive music, or engaging in a fun workout with loved ones, find ways to infuse joy into physical activity. Movement not only helps burn calories but also uplifts your spirit and enhances your sense of well-being. "When you move, you feel alive!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Self-Care Rituals: Amidst the holiday chaos, prioritize self-care rituals that nourish your mind, body, and spirit. Set aside time for relaxation, meditation, adequate sleep, and activities that replenish your energy reserves. By tending to your holistic well-being, you can approach the season with a sense of calm and vitality. "Self-care is the foundation of a thriving life. By honoring your needs and nurturing your well-being, you can navigate the holidays with grace and intention." In essence, healthy living during the holidays is not about deprivation or perfection but about cultivating a sense of balance, joy, and self-care. By using the tools and resources available to you, you can fast track your journey to health and well-being, even amidst the festive celebrations. "Healthy living is a reflection of self-love and empowerment. Embrace the abundance of the season by utilizing what's here – your inner strength, mindful choices, and self-care practices – to create a holiday season that nourishes both your mind, body, and spirit." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember that the holidays are a time for celebration and joy – and that includes celebrating your health and vitality. With a mindset of balance and moderation, you can savor the season while staying true to your well-being goals. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>950</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,health,holidays,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,relationships,stress,transformation,weightloss,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/e32c84b84235afa5f5c3d136345c3deb.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3607 Skip the Lines</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3607-skip-the-lines--63254236</link><description><![CDATA[During the holiday season, you can go from one place to the next, and all you find are lines. Don't let complicated, winding lines of life predict where you will go; skip the lines. You see this all during the holiday hustle and bustle, which often brings you face to face with that one common frustration - waiting in lines. Even when you're online, you are technically waiting in line, you just don't feel it as much. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Whether it's those lines at the grocery store, the post office, or the mall, standing in line can feel like a never-ending journey. But why let your destination be dictated by the length of a line? It's time to embrace a new mindset: skip the lines. The K.I.S.S. ~ Skip the lines!   Let's face it, who really enjoys waiting in line? While it's a necessary part of our daily interactions, it doesn't have to define our direction or experiences. Instead of letting queues determine your pace, take control and chart your own course. "For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." ~ Ephesians 2:10 You have been uniquely created by God with a specific purpose to fulfill in this world. Every time you rise up in the morning, you get to choose how you accept or reject God's calling, His handiwork on your life. So, instead of focusing on what everyone else is doing, walk in step with Him. Pursue good works and fulfill your divine calling. Just as "skipping the lines" metaphorically signifies breaking free from societal norms and embracing your true purpose, Ephesians 2:10 reminds us of the importance of living out our God-given potential and following the path that leads to a heavenly impact here on earth. Life is full of unexpected twists and turns. Don't let a "line" detour you from your purpose and passion with your presence. It's time to break free from the confines of queues and pursue what truly matters to you. As you navigate the holiday season, remember that your journey is defined by your choices, not the lines you stand in. So get ready and skip the lines. "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you shifted your perspective and chose to focus on the good within yourself? What if you chose not to forget what truly matters? "Leave the criticism behind, and don't forget to remember the good in all you do." ~ Kristianne Wargo There is power when you open yourself up to evaluating how you see your journey up until this point and where you are in this season. Instead of dwelling on your shortcomings, celebrate your progress and resilience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate your progress!   To keep a level head and inspire your creative spirit, it's vital to embrace who you are and who you are becoming. 1. Practice Daily Reflection: Take a few moments each day to reflect on your achievements, no matter how small they may seem. Celebrate the obstacles you've overcome and the lessons you've learned. "Choose to show up in a manner that serves your heart well." ~ Kristianne Wargo By acknowledging your growth, you pave the way and set the beauty to inspire yourself. That's self-empowerment. 2. Cultivate a Gratitude Journal: Start a gratitude journal where you can jot down things you are thankful for each day. This simple practice can shift your focus from what's lacking to what's abundant in your life. "Don't forget what needs to be remembered." ~ Kristianne Wargo Expressing gratitude opens the door to sincerity, authenticity, and contentment. 3. Surround Yourself with Positivity: Surround yourself with uplifting quotes, affirmations, and people who support your journey. Read books that lift you up. Create a positive environment that nurtures your creative spirit and encourages self-love. "Choose not to forget the good within you." ~ Kristianne Wargo By fostering a positive mindset, you get to grow and experience transformation. So, where are you willing to put the words to your mind to think what needs to happen so you can live the life God is creating for you here on earth? Don't forget to remember!

Yet, during Advent, we're reminded of a glimmer of hope that emerges: peace be still. In Luke 2:14, we are reminded of the profound promise of peace that transcends circumstances and brings a sense of calm even in the midst of life's storms. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The verse in Luke 2:14 (NIV) reads, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” This proclamation heralded the birth of Jesus Christ, whose very presence ushered in a new era of peace and hope for all humanity. In John 14:27 (NIV), Jesus assures us, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." In a world rife with conflict, division, and uncertainty, it can be easy to succumb to fear and anxiety. However, the peace that Jesus offers is unlike any other. It is a peace that surpasses all understanding, a calm in the midst of the storm, a beacon of hope in the darkness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Peace be still!   Philippians 4:4-7 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. During this Advent season, with all the hustle and bustle of holiday preparations, take a moment to pause and reflect on the true meaning of peace.

Yet, during Advent, we're reminded of a glimmer of hope that emerges: peace be still. In Luke 2:14, we are reminded of the profound promise of peace that transcends circumstances and brings a sense of calm even in the midst of life's storms. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The verse in Luke 2:14 (NIV) reads, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” This proclamation heralded the birth of Jesus Christ, whose very presence ushered in a new era of peace and hope for all humanity. In John 14:27 (NIV), Jesus assures us, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." In a world rife with conflict, division, and uncertainty, it can be easy to succumb to fear and anxiety. However, the peace that Jesus offers is unlike any other. It is a peace that surpasses all understanding, a calm in the midst of the storm, a beacon of hope in the darkness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Peace be still!   Philippians 4:4-7 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. During this Advent season, with all the hustle and bustle of holiday preparations, take a moment to pause and reflect on the true meaning of peace.

In a time when love is in the air, stress less and connect more! As the holiday season approaches, the air fills with the scent of freshly baked goods, twinkling lights adorn the streets, and the anticipation of joyous celebrations looms in the air.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yet during this time, it's essential to prioritize nurturing the bond between husband and wife. It's time to stress less and connect more. "During the holiday chaos, it's crucial to remember that the heart of the season lies in the love shared." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's a magical time meant to be shared with loved ones. However, for many married couples, it can also bring about a whirlwind of stress and distractions that hinder the true connection between partners. Instead of getting bogged down by endless to-do lists and family obligations, it's time to shift the focus back to what truly matters - nurturing the bond between husband and wife. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nurture the bond!   QUESTION: What are you currently doing in your marriage now? Are you making time, or are you just getting by day to day? Here are three simple yet impactful ways for couples to stress less and connect more during the Christmas holidays: 1. Unplug and Unwind Together: In the midst of holiday chaos, it's crucial for couples to carve out quality time for each other. Put away the smartphones, turn off the TV, and create a cozy ambiance where you can truly connect. Whether it's enjoying a quiet evening by the fireplace, taking a leisurely stroll through a winter wonderland, or simply snuggling up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa, these moments of undivided attention can reignite the spark in your relationship. "In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it's easy to get caught up in the external noise. Unplugging and unwinding together, creating a sacred space for a genuine connection to flourish." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Share Gratitude and Affection: Amidst the flurry of gift-giving and party planning, don't forget to express gratitude and affection towards your spouse. Take time to acknowledge the little things they do that often go unnoticed. Write a heartfelt love note, prepare their favorite meal, or simply offer a warm embrace filled with love and appreciation. These gestures of kindness strengthen the bond between husband and wife, fostering a sense of connectedness that transcends the holiday season. "Expressing gratitude and affection towards your partner is a powerful way to nurture your relationship. Small acts of kindness speak volumes and deepen the emotional connection between couples." ~ Krisitanne Wargo 3. Create Meaningful Traditions Together: One of the most beautiful aspects of the holiday season is the opportunity to create lasting memories with your loved ones. Instead of getting caught up in the materialistic aspects of Christmas, focus on cultivating meaningful traditions as a couple. Whether it's decorating the tree together, baking festive treats, reading a book together, or binge-watching your favorite holiday movies, these shared experiences can strengthen your bond and infuse your relationship with joy and togetherness. "Creating meaningful traditions together allows couples to build a foundation of shared experiences that strengthen their connection. These rituals become a source of comfort and joy, nurturing the emotional bond between husband and wife." ~ Kristianne Wargo Amidst the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it's essential for married couples to prioritize their relationship above all else. You get to create your now as a couple and create meaningful traditions during this festive season. Stress less, connect more - because love is truly the greatest gift of all. "Be present.

Just as God selflessly gave the greatest gift of His Son, Jesus Christ, to the world, we, as parents, can teach our children the transformative power of generosity and service. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the spirit of Christmas and the teachings of God, let us guide our children on a journey from being takers to becoming givers, mirroring the ultimate act of love and sacrifice demonstrated by Jesus. "Christmas is a time to celebrate the gift of love through giving. By nurturing a spirit of generosity in our children, we not only honor the true meaning of this season but also embody the selfless nature of God's love." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Give the gift of giving!   1. Lead by Christ's Example The story of Christmas begins with the humble birth of Jesus, God's unconditional love for humanity. As parents, we can emulate Christ's teachings by embodying compassion, kindness, and generosity in our daily lives. "Just as God gave us His greatest gift, we can teach our children to give selflessly to others." ~ Kristianne Wargo Invite your children to participate in acts of service, such as volunteering at a local shelter, donating toys to underprivileged children, or helping an elderly neighbor decorate for Christmas. Through these actions, children learn to share Christ's love through their deeds. 2. Cultivate the Fruit of the Spirit Christmas is a season of faith, hope, and love, as highlighted in the fruits of the Spirit described in the Bible. Encouraging children to embody these virtues—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—enables them to become vessels of God's grace. "Teach your children to bear the fruit of the Spirit in their interactions with others, spreading the light of Christ." ~ Kristianne Wargo Engage your children in crafting handmade cards for the elderly, singing carols at a nursing home, or baking treats for frontline workers. Encourage them to embody the virtues of love, kindness, and joy as they share God's blessings with those around them. 3. Spread the Light of Christ Just as candles illuminate the darkness, our acts of kindness and generosity can bring hope and warmth to those in need. Inspire your children to be beacons of Christ's light by extending grace, mercy, and love to others. "Let your children shine brightly with the love of Christ, bringing warmth and comfort to those around them." ~ Kristianne Wargo Create a family tradition of performing random acts of kindness throughout the Christmas season, such as donating to a charitable cause, delivering meals to the homeless, or expressing gratitude to essential workers. Encourage your children to be channels of God's love and light in a world that needs it most. Helping children go from takers to givers is a gradual process that requires nurturing, guidance, and continuous reinforcement. In other words, it's not going to happen overnight. So keep repeating the selfless gifts of giving. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and the gift of salvation, may we reflect His love by nurturing a spirit of generosity and service in our children. By following Christ's example, cultivating the fruits of the Spirit, and spreading His light to others, we empower our children to embrace the true meaning of Christmas and embody God's love in all they do.

Just as God selflessly gave the greatest gift of His Son, Jesus Christ, to the world, we, as parents, can teach our children the transformative power of generosity and service. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the spirit of Christmas and the teachings of God, let us guide our children on a journey from being takers to becoming givers, mirroring the ultimate act of love and sacrifice demonstrated by Jesus. "Christmas is a time to celebrate the gift of love through giving. By nurturing a spirit of generosity in our children, we not only honor the true meaning of this season but also embody the selfless nature of God's love." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Give the gift of giving!   1. Lead by Christ's Example The story of Christmas begins with the humble birth of Jesus, God's unconditional love for humanity. As parents, we can emulate Christ's teachings by embodying compassion, kindness, and generosity in our daily lives. "Just as God gave us His greatest gift, we can teach our children to give selflessly to others." ~ Kristianne Wargo Invite your children to participate in acts of service, such as volunteering at a local shelter, donating toys to underprivileged children, or helping an elderly neighbor decorate for Christmas. Through these actions, children learn to share Christ's love through their deeds. 2. Cultivate the Fruit of the Spirit Christmas is a season of faith, hope, and love, as highlighted in the fruits of the Spirit described in the Bible. Encouraging children to embody these virtues—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—enables them to become vessels of God's grace. "Teach your children to bear the fruit of the Spirit in their interactions with others, spreading the light of Christ." ~ Kristianne Wargo Engage your children in crafting handmade cards for the elderly, singing carols at a nursing home, or baking treats for frontline workers. Encourage them to embody the virtues of love, kindness, and joy as they share God's blessings with those around them. 3. Spread the Light of Christ Just as candles illuminate the darkness, our acts of kindness and generosity can bring hope and warmth to those in need. Inspire your children to be beacons of Christ's light by extending grace, mercy, and love to others. "Let your children shine brightly with the love of Christ, bringing warmth and comfort to those around them." ~ Kristianne Wargo Create a family tradition of performing random acts of kindness throughout the Christmas season, such as donating to a charitable cause, delivering meals to the homeless, or expressing gratitude to essential workers. Encourage your children to be channels of God's love and light in a world that needs it most. Helping children go from takers to givers is a gradual process that requires nurturing, guidance, and continuous reinforcement. In other words, it's not going to happen overnight. So keep repeating the selfless gifts of giving. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and the gift of salvation, may we reflect His love by nurturing a spirit of generosity and service in our children. By following Christ's example, cultivating the fruits of the Spirit, and spreading His light to others, we empower our children to embrace the true meaning of Christmas and embody God's love in all they do.

The darkness seeps in, enveloping us in its icy grip, whispering doubts and fears, threatening to drown out the light. So, illuminate your shadows. Just as the night gives way to the dawn, so too can we banish the shadows that haunt us, casting them aside to let the brightness shine through.

When we find ourselves in a season of cold and darkness, it can be easy to succumb to the gloom, letting it seep into our bones and cloud our vision. But we must remember that we hold the power to choose how we show up in the world. We have the strength within us to push back against the darkness and let our inner light shine through. Doubt and fear, those twin specters that haunt your waking hours and whisper in the silence of the night, have no power over you when you choose to illuminate your shadows. When you confront your fears head-on, when you shine a light into the darkest corners of your soul, you find that there is nothing to be afraid of. The doubt that once held you in its thrall dissipates like mist in the morning sun, leaving only clarity and confidence in its wake. The K.I.S.S. ~ Illuminate your shadows!   So, how do we go about illuminating our shadows? How do we banish the darkness and let our light shine through? It starts with awareness, with a willingness to confront the darkness within and acknowledge its presence. Only then can we begin to take the steps necessary to cast aside the shadows that hold us back. One powerful tool in illuminating our shadows is self-reflection. By turning inward and examining your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs with honesty and compassion, you can begin to uncover the sources of your doubts and fears. Through this process of self-exploration, you can shine a light on the hidden corners of your mind, bringing to light what has been lurking in the shadows. And don't forget self-compassion. It is important to remember that you are only human, and that doubt and fear are natural parts of the human experience. By treating yourself with kindness and understanding, you can begin to soften the harsh edges of your self-criticism and make room for your light to shine brightly. Ultimately, to illuminate your shadows is to embrace your own inner light, to recognize the strength and resilience that resides within you. When you choose to confront your fears, banish your doubts, and let your light shine through, you open yourself up to a world of possibility and growth. The darkness may come, but it is in your power to cast it aside and let your light shine bright. So, dear reader, the next time you find yourself in a season of cold and darkness, remember that you hold the power to illuminate your shadows. The darkness may be strong, but your passion within is a much brighter spark. Embrace it, nurture it, and let it guide you through the darkest of nights to the brightest of dawns. "Be present.

Set Boundaries: Learn to say no to commitments that drain you and make time for activities that bring you joy and fulfillment.  As I like to say, "Setting boundaries is not a sign of selfishness; it's a sign of self-care. You can only love as deep as you love yourself." By establishing clear boundaries, you can create space for meaningful self-care practices. 2. Prioritize Mental Health: Take time to check in with your thoughts and emotions regularly. Engage in activities that promote mental well-being, such as meditation, journaling, or therapy. Remember, "Your mental health should never be compromised for the sake of others." Prioritizing your mental health is essential for overall well-being. 3. Invest in Self-Development: Dedicate time and resources to personal growth and self-improvement.

Even though it's comforting to some degree, nothing beats the feeling of hope in motion.

True hope is found in motion - in the pursuit of dreams, the persistence of effort, and the patience to be courageous by moving forward despite the challenges that may arise. In the tapestry of our lives, hope in motion is the vibrant thread that weaves through our darkest moments, illuminating a path forward even in the midst of uncertainty.

Hope in motion empowers us to transcend our limitations, defy our doubts, and embrace the boundless possibilities that lie on the horizon. It calls us to action, challenges us to push beyond our comfort zones, and invites us to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and growth. In a world that often feels fraught with obstacles and uncertainties, hope in motion serves as a beacon of light, guiding us through the shadows of fear and doubt toward a brighter tomorrow. It is the spark that ignites the flames of passion within us, driving us to pursue our goals with unwavering determination and unwavering faith in our own capacity for greatness. So, let us not be content to merely hope for a better future. Instead, embody hope in motion - a dynamic force that propels you to strive for your dreams, overcome your challenges, and transform your aspirations into reality. For it is in the journey of hope in motion that you discover the true depth of your strength, the limitless potential of your spirit, and the boundless possibilities that await you on the horizon. Today, let hope in motion be a guiding principle in your life, a source of inspiration and motivation that empowers you to take the next step, no matter how daunting the path may seem. For in the relentless pursuit of your dreams, in the unwavering commitment to your goals, you unlock the transformative power of hope in motion - a force that knows no bounds and defies all limitations. Hope in motion - a celebration of the resilience of the human heart, and a reminder that true greatness lies not in what we hope for, but in what we dare to do to bring our hopes to life.

The question then arises: do our circumstances dictate our next steps? While it may seem daunting to confront this reality, it is essential to consider how we can navigate these uncharted waters and continue moving forward toward our goals.

Unfortunately, that applies to life; the only guarantee in life is change. Change is a constant. Therefore, if you cannot control it, then do your circumstances dictate your next steps?" ~ Kristianne Wargo In the face of adversity, life is unpredictable. And that's all the more reason for the importance of resilience and determination. While circumstances may present obstacles, they should not dictate our path forward. You've gotta fall toward your dreams! The K.I.S.S. ~ Fall toward your dreams!   Here are three actionable steps to shift your focus towards your goals, rather than allowing circumstances to dictate your next steps: 1. Cultivate a Positive Mindset: Embrace a mindset of resilience and optimism, viewing challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. "Our mindset plays a crucial role in determining our response to challenges. By maintaining a positive outlook, we can overcome obstacles with grace and determination." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Clear Goals and Prioritize: Define your goals and priorities, breaking them down into manageable steps. "Setting clear goals empowers us to stay focused on our objectives, regardless of external circumstances. By prioritizing tasks and actions, we can make steady progress towards our aspirations." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Seek Support and Guidance: Surround yourself with a supportive network of friends, mentors, and resources to help you navigate challenging times. "We are not meant to face challenges alone. Reach out to trusted individuals who can provide encouragement, advice, and perspective during difficult times." ~ Kristianne Wargo While life's circumstances may pose obstacles, it is essential to maintain focus on your goals and aspirations. Your dreams matter! "Do not let your circumstances define your future. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and keep falling toward your dreams." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present.

And it’s not about Black Friday finds; it’s about your relationship with your Heavenly Father. Regardless of what you're going through, there's hope in the darkness. I think about how God wants to connect with us. He wants a relationship with you. He wants to hold your hand. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And maybe you're coming off the holidays and you're kind of a doom-and-gloom position right now. <ul> <li>Maybe you had a fight husband and you just tried to make it through but it didn't work.</li> <li>The kids were all riled up. In fact, they didn't want to be around you.</li> <li>Maybe you had some grown kids who didn't show up on your doorstep.</li> <li>Maybe you're in the middle of a medical crisis and you don't know if this is going to be your last holiday season.</li> </ul> Sometimes you just don't feel like there's much there. But I'm here to tell you my friends, there's hope in the darkness The K.I.S.S. ~ Hope in the darkness!   As we move from the season of gratitude into the Advent season, the day is shortened and the darkness descends. There's this a glimmer of hope that shines brightly through the shadows, the promise of a Savior foretold centuries before his birth. In Isaiah 9:6-7, we read, "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." These words speak of a hope beyond all comprehension – a hope that transcends the trials and tribulations of this world. In the darkness of uncertainty, fear, and despair, the promise of the Messiah brings reassurance and comfort. The Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace – these titles evoke a sense of security and serenity, beckoning us to trust in the One who brings hope to a world in turmoil. As we journey through the Advent season, let us reflect on the profound significance of this prophecy. Let us ponder the immense love and grace that led to the fulfillment of this promise in the birth of Jesus Christ. In Him, we find hope that defies all logic and reason, a hope that sustains us through the darkest of times. May we cling to this hope as we navigate the trials and uncertainties of life. May we find solace in the knowledge that we are not alone, that a Savior has come to bring light to our darkness. And may we share this hope with others, spreading the message of salvation and redemption to a world in need. In the words of Isaiah 9:6-7, let us hold fast to the promise of hope: "The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this." Let us trust in the faithfulness of God to fulfill His promises and bring light to the darkest of places. As we await the celebration of the birth of our Savior, let us embrace the hope that He brings and shine His light into a world in desperate need of His love and grace. Hope is not lost in the darkness – it is found in the promise of Christ, our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. "Be present. Be incredible.

And it’s not about Black Friday finds; it’s about your relationship with your Heavenly Father. Regardless of what you're going through, there's hope in the darkness. I think about how God wants to connect with us. He wants a relationship with you. He wants to hold your hand. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And maybe you're coming off the holidays and you're kind of a doom-and-gloom position right now. <ul> <li>Maybe you had a fight husband and you just tried to make it through but it didn't work.</li> <li>The kids were all riled up. In fact, they didn't want to be around you.</li> <li>Maybe you had some grown kids who didn't show up on your doorstep.</li> <li>Maybe you're in the middle of a medical crisis and you don't know if this is going to be your last holiday season.</li> </ul> Sometimes you just don't feel like there's much there. But I'm here to tell you my friends, there's hope in the darkness The K.I.S.S. ~ Hope in the darkness!   As we move from the season of gratitude into the Advent season, the day is shortened and the darkness descends. There's this a glimmer of hope that shines brightly through the shadows, the promise of a Savior foretold centuries before his birth. In Isaiah 9:6-7, we read, "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." These words speak of a hope beyond all comprehension – a hope that transcends the trials and tribulations of this world. In the darkness of uncertainty, fear, and despair, the promise of the Messiah brings reassurance and comfort. The Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace – these titles evoke a sense of security and serenity, beckoning us to trust in the One who brings hope to a world in turmoil. As we journey through the Advent season, let us reflect on the profound significance of this prophecy. Let us ponder the immense love and grace that led to the fulfillment of this promise in the birth of Jesus Christ. In Him, we find hope that defies all logic and reason, a hope that sustains us through the darkest of times. May we cling to this hope as we navigate the trials and uncertainties of life. May we find solace in the knowledge that we are not alone, that a Savior has come to bring light to our darkness. And may we share this hope with others, spreading the message of salvation and redemption to a world in need. In the words of Isaiah 9:6-7, let us hold fast to the promise of hope: "The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this." Let us trust in the faithfulness of God to fulfill His promises and bring light to the darkest of places. As we await the celebration of the birth of our Savior, let us embrace the hope that He brings and shine His light into a world in desperate need of His love and grace. Hope is not lost in the darkness – it is found in the promise of Christ, our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. "Be present. Be incredible.

But the problem when you're looking at your marriage and keeping score, who wins? No one. Therefore, you must love beyond the season. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In this episode, Kristianne Wargo discusses how to love beyond the season, not just during the holiday season but everyday. The importance of being present in your relationship, removing the habit of keeping score, and forgiving quickly is critical. At some point you must draw a distinction between merely living in a house and creating a home with your spouse. Maintaining a relationship involves seeing, understanding, and valuing each other's hearts.  It’s time to examine your roles in your relationship and find areas where you can show up differently and serve beyond the season. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build your house to make it a home!   1. Loving beyond the season is about making every day count in your relationship, not just during the holidays. 2. Keeping score in your relationship only leads to losers, not winners. 3. Love changes you and it's important to nurture that change in a healthy manner. 4. To build a home, your heart needs to be centered on the right thing. 5. Understanding and valuing your spouse's heart is crucial for maintaining a healthy relationship. 6.

What if you were to live well by knowing how to rest and party, making room for memories to last a lifetime, balancing health and celebration during the holidays?

No matter how crazy the temptations get, you can savor the joys of Thanksgiving while staying true to your health commitments. Establishing a Sustainable Holiday Routine: 1. Prioritize Self-Care: Amidst the hustle and bustle of the holidays, remember to make time for yourself. Whether it's through mindfulness practices, a leisurely walk in nature, or a relaxing bubble bath, self-care is non-negotiable. "Take care of yourself so you can care for others more." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Stay Active: Incorporating physical activity into your holiday routine is crucial for both physical and mental well-being. Whether it's a morning yoga session, a brisk walk after dinner, or a dance party with loved ones, find ways to keep moving. "Movement is medicine for the body, mind, and spirit." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Mind Your Indulgence: Enjoying the flavors of the season doesn't have to derail your healthy habits. Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite, listening to your body's hunger cues, and opting for nourishing choices whenever possible. "Savor the special treats in moderation, knowing that balance is the key to long-term wellness." ~ Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the holiday season, remember that taking care of yourself is a gift that keeps on giving. Embrace the joy of rest and partying in harmony, creating unforgettable memories that nourish both mind, body, and spirit. "Be present. Be incredible.

When you jump before you fall, that's where the magic of hope meets the heart. Uncertainty and doubt can truly lead your day, but in a way that distracts you from exactly where you need to be. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Why is it that we often wait until we face failure before taking action on what we already knew deep down? Sometimes, embracing the unknown and taking that leap of faith can lead to extraordinary growth and unexpected opportunities. That's when your heart ignites with passion! The K.I.S.S. ~ Jump before you fall!   Imagine teetering on the edge of a decision, clutching onto the fears and excuses with a white-knuckled grip. Instead of succumbing to self-doubt and hesitation, you can relinquish your insecurities and lean into your inherent strengths, leaving behind the barriers and embracing the possibilities that await. During this season of gratitude and reflection, I want you to recognize and celebrate your unique talents and capabilities. By shedding the weight of what does not serve you and embracing your true potential, you open yourself up to a world of wonder and greatness. Life is a journey best experienced when we are willing to step outside of your comfort zones and take risks that challenge you to grow. Every small step forward leads you closer to greatness, paving the way for extraordinary achievements and personal triumphs. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, grab your belief torch and let your courage stretch your jump -- leap into the unknown. By jumping before you fall, you free yourself from the constraints of fear and doubt, paving the way to a newfound freedom: freedom in who you are and who you are becoming! Your journey toward greatness begins when you dare to take that leap of faith. Jump before you fall, and discover the incredible heights you are destined to reach. "Be present. Be incredible.

When you jump before you fall, that's where the magic of hope meets the heart. Uncertainty and doubt can truly lead your day, but in a way that distracts you from exactly where you need to be.

Sometimes, embracing the unknown and taking that leap of faith can lead to extraordinary growth and unexpected opportunities. That's when your heart ignites with passion! The K.I.S.S. ~ Jump before you fall!   Imagine teetering on the edge of a decision, clutching onto the fears and excuses with a white-knuckled grip. Instead of succumbing to self-doubt and hesitation, you can relinquish your insecurities and lean into your inherent strengths, leaving behind the barriers and embracing the possibilities that await. During this season of gratitude and reflection, I want you to recognize and celebrate your unique talents and capabilities. By shedding the weight of what does not serve you and embracing your true potential, you open yourself up to a world of wonder and greatness. Life is a journey best experienced when we are willing to step outside of your comfort zones and take risks that challenge you to grow. Every small step forward leads you closer to greatness, paving the way for extraordinary achievements and personal triumphs. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, grab your belief torch and let your courage stretch your jump -- leap into the unknown. By jumping before you fall, you free yourself from the constraints of fear and doubt, paving the way to a newfound freedom: freedom in who you are and who you are becoming! Your journey toward greatness begins when you dare to take that leap of faith. Jump before you fall, and discover the incredible heights you are destined to reach. "Be present. Be incredible.

They are formed from your surroundings, experience, and influence. However, it does not give you an excuse to ignore them. Thoughts are meant to be formed; master your mind. In a world filled with distractions and constant noise, mastering your mind can be the key to unlocking your full potential and achieving personal growth. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It can take you from being average to becoming who God created you to be. Thoughts are not mere fleeting occurrences; they have the power to shape our reality and influence our actions. If you want to master your mind, then you want to harness the power of your thoughts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Harness the power of your thoughts!   The importance of harnessing the power of your thoughts with the guidance of biblical wisdom can change your perspective and the lenses in which you see the world. Here are three actionable steps to help you master your mind. 1. Rewire Your Mind: Just as we can train our bodies to become stronger through consistent exercise, we can rewire our minds to think more positively and productively. Romans 12:2 reminds us, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." By aligning our thought patterns with God's truth, we can experience a renewed perspective on life and make choices that honor Him and us. This involves consciously replacing negative thought patterns with empowering ones. For example, instead of saying, "I can't do this," shift your mindset to "I am capable of overcoming any challenge." By practicing mindfulness and self-awareness, you can reprogram your brain to default to positive thinking in everyday situations. "Our thoughts have the power to shape our reality. By rewiring our minds to focus on the positive, we can create a life filled with abundance and joy through God." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Renew Your Mind: Renewing your mind involves engaging in activities that stimulate creativity, critical thinking, and growth. Philippians 4:8 encourages us, "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." By immersing yourself in God-honoring content and surrounding yourself with positive influences, you can elevate your thoughts and actions. This can include reading inspiring books, attending personal development seminars, or surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who challenge and uplift you. By exposing yourself to new ideas and perspectives, you can broaden your mental horizons and expand your capacity for innovative thinking. This makes way for you to think outside yourself and challenge your thoughts. "Renewing your mind is like watering a garden; only with nurturing and care can it flourish and bear fruit." - Kristianne Wargo 3. Reset Your Mind: Just as a computer occasionally needs to be rebooted to function optimally, our minds also benefit from periodic resets. Psalm 46:10 reminds us, "Be still, and know that I am God." Take time to reset your mind through practices such as meditation, journaling, or simply taking a break from the busyness of daily life to reflect and recharge. It allows you to clear the mental clutter and align your thoughts with God's purpose and gain clarity amidst life's busyness. "In the stillness of reflection, we find clarity and purpose. Resetting our minds is not a luxury but a necessity for sustainable growth and well-being." - Kristianne Wargo In order to master your mind, it becomes a lifelong journey that requires dedication, self-awareness, and a willingness to challenge your existing beliefs. By taking proactive steps to rewire, renew, and reset your mind, you can unleash the full potential of your thoughts and create your now. Remember, thoughts are not mere happenings; they are the building blocks of your reality. Master your mind, and you master your life. "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, amidst the chaos, there is a beautiful light of hope that shines brightly in the darkness. Yet, are you drawn to the right bright light? It is super easy to get so bogged down with everything the world says we must follow. And why not? Everyone else is doing it. It comes easier. You don't have to mull it over much. You just do it. Isn't that what Nike promotes? Just do it! Or does that give you what God really wants for your heart? The K.I.S.S. ~ Overflow with hope!   It reminds me of Joseph, a powerful Biblical story that exemplifies the concept of overflowing with hope. Despite facing betrayal, false accusations, and years of imprisonment, Joseph never lost hope in God's plan for his life. In the end, Joseph's unwavering faith and trust in God's promises led him to a position of power and influence in Egypt, where he was able to save his family and fulfill God's purpose for his life. Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Joseph's story reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we can find hope in the unchanging promises of God. When we trust in Him and lean on His strength, we can experience a peace that surpasses all understanding and a joy that overflows our hearts. Psalm 31:24 – “Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!” During the holiday season, it's essential to hold fast to the hope that sustains you through life's trials and tribulations. Whether you're facing financial difficulties, loneliness, health challenges, or the loss of a loved one, remember that you are not alone. The God of hope is with you, ready to fill you with joy, peace, and an abundance of hope that overflows from within. As you trust in Him and surrender your worries and fears, may you experience the transforming power of the Holy Spirit, filling your heart with hope that transcends circumstances. May this holiday season be a time of renewal, restoration, and rejuvenation, with overflowing hope, knowing that God's promises are true and His love is never-ending. Overflow with hope, for you are deeply loved and cherished by the One who holds the universe in His hands. Trust in His plan, lean on His strength, and bask in the overflowing hope that comes from a faith rooted in the God of all creation. "Be present. Be incredible.

You don't have to mull it over much. You just do it. Isn't that what Nike promotes? Just do it! Or does that give you what God really wants for your heart? The K.I.S.S. ~ Overflow with hope!   It reminds me of Joseph, a powerful Biblical story that exemplifies the concept of overflowing with hope. Despite facing betrayal, false accusations, and years of imprisonment, Joseph never lost hope in God's plan for his life. In the end, Joseph's unwavering faith and trust in God's promises led him to a position of power and influence in Egypt, where he was able to save his family and fulfill God's purpose for his life. Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Joseph's story reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we can find hope in the unchanging promises of God. When we trust in Him and lean on His strength, we can experience a peace that surpasses all understanding and a joy that overflows our hearts. Psalm 31:24 – “Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!” During the holiday season, it's essential to hold fast to the hope that sustains you through life's trials and tribulations. Whether you're facing financial difficulties, loneliness, health challenges, or the loss of a loved one, remember that you are not alone. The God of hope is with you, ready to fill you with joy, peace, and an abundance of hope that overflows from within. As you trust in Him and surrender your worries and fears, may you experience the transforming power of the Holy Spirit, filling your heart with hope that transcends circumstances. May this holiday season be a time of renewal, restoration, and rejuvenation, with overflowing hope, knowing that God's promises are true and His love is never-ending. Overflow with hope, for you are deeply loved and cherished by the One who holds the universe in His hands. Trust in His plan, lean on His strength, and bask in the overflowing hope that comes from a faith rooted in the God of all creation. "Be present. Be incredible.

Isn't life all about the sizzle? So, create a haven of peace in order to find love in the middle of stress. Life can often feel like a whirlwind of stress, challenges, and responsibilities, leaving little room for nurturing our relationships. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What have your days looked like recently? In fact, have you even spoken to your spouse with kind words and no inferences of demands, wink-wink? You dictating what must happen in the home, does not bring warm, fuzzy moments to the heart. You need to extend your hand by expanding your heart. Amidst the chaos, it's crucial to prioritize and maintain love and connection with your spouse. After all, isn't love supposed to be a sanctuary in the midst of life's storms? So, anchor away. Create your sanctuary today. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your sanctuary today!   Here are three practical ways couples can continue to foster love even in the face of stress: 1. Communication is Key: When stress levels are high, communication tends to break down, leading to misunderstandings and conflict. To keep the love alive, it's essential for couples to communicate openly and honestly. Take the time to sit down with your partner, actively listen to their concerns, and express your own feelings without judgment. "Don't always talk while in action. Let your words speak first, and then follow-up with your actions next." ~ Kristianne Wargo Example: Instead of bottling up frustrations from work, share them with your partner over a cup of coffee. By expressing your emotions and concerns, you invite your partner into your world and strengthen the bond between you. 2. Quality Time Together: In the midst of hectic schedules and endless to-do lists, carving out quality time for each other can easily fall by the wayside. However, making time for shared experiences and bonding activities is vital for sustaining a loving relationship. Plan date nights, weekend getaways, or even simple activities like cooking together or going for a walk. "Quality time spent together today is an investment in your relationship's tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo Example: Unplug from technology and distractions for an evening and enjoy a candlelit dinner with your partner. Focus on each other's company and create lasting memories that will strengthen your emotional connection. 3. Support and Encouragement: During stressful times, having a supportive partner by your side can make all the difference. Show love and support to your significant other by being there for them, offering a listening ear, and providing words of encouragement. "In times of stress, unconditional love and support are the pillars that hold relationships together." ~ Kristianne Wargo Example: If your partner is facing a challenging situation at work, be their cheerleader and source of strength. Offer words of encouragement, lend a helping hand, and remind them that you are in this together. You can navigate the ups and downs of life's stressors while keeping the flame of love burning bright. Remember, love is not just a feeling. Love is a verb; it's a conscious choice to prioritize your partner and nurture your bond, even in the midst of chaos. "Love is the anchor that keeps couples grounded amidst life's storms." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

Who doesn't want to be seen and heard by millions? Unfortunately, our kids are the ones whose hearts are hurting, but you can get your kids out of the gutter. It's all about how you see them, how you recognize them, and how you hear them. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Now, most of us parents are not sitting around debating what we need to do to keep our kids' attention so they are not lost in a world of lies and hopelessness. Think about it: How important is it for you to make sure your child is seen and heard? Or maybe that's not really something that you've given a lot of thought to. No worries! Think about it now.  <ul> <li>How do you communicate with your child so they are not so tied up in the "reactions" on social media?</li> <li>How do you interact with them so they feel seen and heard?</li> <li>What makes your child stand out to you? Think about the gifts that they have; their own personality.</li> <li>When do you make time to see your child without interruption?</li> <li>Where do you go with your child so they know they're number one in your heart?</li> <li>Why does all this matter to your kids?</li> </ul> Because we live in a society where going viral and seeking validation from strangers can overshadow authentic connections. That's why it's crucial to ensure our children are not lost in the noise. As parents, it's our responsibility to see, recognize, and hear our kids, nurturing their hearts with love, joy, and hope. And in order to do that, you gotta see them first! The K.I.S.S. ~ See them F.I.R.S.T.!   Here are three actionable steps parents can take to elevate their interactions with their children: 1. FOCUS: When parents focus on creating a loving and supportive environment for their children, they prioritize their child's well-being and emotional development. When you actively tune into your child's needs and feelings, then you get to demonstrate an unwavering commitment to nurturing a strong parent-child bond. "When we focus on creating a supportive environment, we empower our children to thrive." ~ Kristianne Wargo This is when you set aside distractions and actively listen to your child's concerns, showing them they are valued and understood. 2. INTERACT: Engaging actively with your child through conversation and activities fosters a sense of connection and communication. By spending quality time together and participating in shared interests, parents strengthen their relationship with their children. "Interacting with your child builds a bridge of trust and understanding." ~ Kristianne Wargo For instance, play, play, play: playing games, going for walks, or participating in creative projects together can create bonding moments, the trust moments that facilitate open dialogue between you and your child. 3. RECOGNIZE: Acknowledging and validating a child's emotions and experiences is crucial for their emotional well-being. When parents recognize their child's feelings, they demonstrate empathy and understanding, creating a safe space for emotional expression. "Acknowledging their feelings validates their experiences and connects your heart with theirs." ~ Kristianne Wargo In times of distress or worry, you can show recognition by responding sensitively to your child's emotions and offering comfort and support. 4. SUPPORT: Providing encouragement and emotional support for your child nurtures their confidence and resilience. We're talking about their self-esteem. When you offer consistent support, you help your child navigate challenges and setbacks with greater resilience and determination. "Supporting our children builds a foundation of strength, courage, and compassion." ~ Kristianne Wargo This can be demonstrated when a parent encourages their child to pursue their interests, celebrate their achievements, and offer reassurance during difficult times. 5. TALK: Having open and honest conversations with your child fosters trust, understanding, and communication. Through meaningful dialogue, you can gain insight into your child's thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. Because if you are not paying attention, someone else will take your place. "Talking with our children opens the door to deeper connections, creating a foundation of mutual respect and trust." ~ Kristianne Wargo Parents can engage in conversations with their child about their day, interests, worries, and aspirations, creating a space for mutual sharing and building a strong parent-child bond. "Your child must see you alive in action and thorough in thought." ~ Kristianne Wargo YOU have the power to lift them out of the gutter of "hey, look at me," and instill in them a foundation of love, joy, and hope. Remember, as a parent, you hold the key to shaping your children's emotional well-being and nurturing them from the inside out. So, let's commit to seeing and hearing our kids. "Be present.

But, and it's the big BUTT that we begin to panic and see all that's wrong with what we see in the mirror. You can overcome a body image meltdown. The pressure to look a certain way for holiday parties, family photos, and social gatherings can often lead to what I call a "body image meltdown." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Suddenly, you go into your closet, and you have nothing to wear. You don't like anything you try on. And it's stuff you've worn before. Yet, now, there is absolutely nothing. You see twenty-two more wrinkles on your face and body. Plus, you feel bloated and plump. So, what do you see for yourself? Fear not; there are ways to avoid falling into this trap. Instead, embrace your true beauty and confidence during this festive time. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace your true beauty!   1. Practice Self-Compassion: One of the most powerful tools in combating body image meltdowns is self-compassion. Instead of criticizing yourself for not meeting unrealistic standards, practice kindness and understanding towards yourself. Take time each day to affirm yourself and focus on what makes you unique and beautiful. For example, when you catch yourself in a negative thought spiral, try replacing it with a positive affirmation like, "I am strong, capable, and worthy of love." Remember, perfection is an illusion, and true beauty comes from self-acceptance. "Embrace your uniqueness and focus on your strengths rather than your perceived flaws. Your beauty shines from within when you cultivate self-love and self-acceptance. Compassion grows your heart for who you see in the mirror." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Prioritize Self-Care: During the hectic holiday season, it's easy to neglect self-care in favor of attending to others' needs. However, taking care of yourself is crucial in maintaining a healthy body image and overall well-being. Make time for activities that nourish your body, mind, and soul, whether it's a relaxing bath, a yoga session, or a walk in nature. Additionally, prioritize healthy eating habits, regular exercise, and adequate rest to feel your best both inside and out. "Self-care is not selfish; it is essential for your well-being. Prioritize activities that bring you joy and replenish your energy reserves to rejuvenate your spirit." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Surround Yourself with Supportive People: The holidays can be a time of intense social interactions, which may exacerbate feelings of self-doubt and insecurity. Surround yourself with friends and family members who uplift and encourage you, rather than those who bring negativity or judgment. Seek out supportive communities, online or offline, where you feel accepted and understood for who you are. Remember, you are not alone in your struggles, and sharing your feelings with trusted individuals can help alleviate the burden of body image issues. "Choose to spend time with people who celebrate your uniqueness and empower you to be your authentic self. Building a community of support is essential in navigating difficult moments." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: How do you proactively address and prevent body image meltdowns? Remember, your worth is not defined by your appearance, but by the kindness, strength, and resilience you embody. Embrace your true beauty this holiday season and celebrate the unique masterpiece that you are. "You are a work of art, a masterpiece constantly evolving and growing. Embrace the journey of greatness you're on, and extend the grace, love, and compassion you deserve." "Be present. Be incredible.

Whether it's a missed opportunity, a failed endeavor, or a setback, these moments are tricky to navigate. So, persist through challenges.

Each obstacle that comes your way is an opportunity for growth and transformation. Remember, the path to success is often paved with setbacks and challenges.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Persist through challenges!   When you're feeling discouraged, remember that you possess the strength, resilience, and determination to overcome any obstacle in your path. Don't let self-doubt or fear hold you back from pursuing your goals. Trust in your abilities and believe that you are capable of achieving greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo You know this. Take it to heart! Hold your head up high and carry the torch of belief in yourself and your aspirations and abilities. Embrace the journey, embrace the challenges, and most importantly, embrace the growth that comes from persevering through difficult times. You deserve better, and the only way to reach your greatness is by never giving up on your dreams. Walk in step with God. So, if you're feeling defeated or uncertain, remember this: Don't stop when you can choose to keep going. You've got this. Keep pushing forward, keep believing in yourself, and keep thriving because you are created for greatness. Your journey is just beginning, and the best is yet to come. "Be present. Be incredible.

Whether it's a missed opportunity, a failed endeavor, or a setback, these moments are tricky to navigate. So, persist through challenges.

Each obstacle that comes your way is an opportunity for growth and transformation. Remember, the path to success is often paved with setbacks and challenges. It's how we choose to respond to these hurdles that truly defines our comeback. Instead of viewing failures as roadblocks, see them as stepping stones towards something greater.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Persist through challenges!   When you're feeling discouraged, remember that you possess the strength, resilience, and determination to overcome any obstacle in your path. Don't let self-doubt or fear hold you back from pursuing your goals. Trust in your abilities and believe that you are capable of achieving greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo You know this. Take it to heart! Hold your head up high and carry the torch of belief in yourself and your aspirations and abilities.

Yes, we don't have all the answers. Yes, there are tons of challenges. But if we continue to focus on all the negative stuff, that's all we'll see. Memorize what matters. In our journey through life, we often find ourselves caught up in the chaos of day-to-day challenges, forgetting to focus on what truly matters. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's easy to get bogged down by negativity and bad habits, but it's essential to break free from these patterns and memorize what truly matters. Habits fuel our actions for good or bad. Unfortunately, though, it's usually our bad habits that win over our good ones. How do habits form? What does it take to erase one habit for another?  Habits are formed through a process in our brains called the habit loop, which consists of three key components: 1. Cue: The first step in forming a habit is the cue, which triggers a specific behavior. This could be a certain time of day, a particular emotion, a location, or even a specific event that prompts the habit. 2. Routine: Once the cue is triggered, we engage in a routine or behavior that follows the cue. This is the action that we take in response to the cue, whether it's positive or negative. 3. Reward: The final component of the habit loop is the reward. After completing the routine, our brains release a surge of neurotransmitters that make us feel good. This reinforces the behavior and encourages us to repeat it in the future. Over time, as we continue to repeat the same cue-routine-reward cycle, the habit becomes more ingrained in our brains, making it automatic and requiring less conscious effort to perform. By understanding this process, we can work towards breaking bad habits and forming new, positive ones by intentionally choosing the cues, routines, and rewards in our daily lives. Imagine if you were an eraser in your life? What bad habits would you like to get rid of, reduce, or redeem? You don't have to keep doing the same ole things the same ole ways. Habits play a significant role in shaping our lives, dictating our actions and behaviors. You can change your bad habits and create your now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Memorize what matters!   "Memorizing what matters means consciously choosing to prioritize the things that bring joy, purpose, and meaning to our lives." ~ Kristianne Wargo Here are three actionable steps to help you change your habits for the better: 1. Identify Your Triggers: Take some time to reflect on what triggers your bad habits. Is it stress, boredom, or a particular environment? Once you understand the root cause, you can begin to address it. For example, if you tend to stress-eat, find alternative coping mechanisms such as going for a walk or practicing mindfulness. 2. Create a Routine: Replace your bad habits with positive ones by establishing a routine that supports your goals. For instance, if you want to improve your physical fitness, commit to a daily workout schedule or join a fitness class. Consistency is key to forming new, healthy habits. 3. Stay Accountable: Enlist the support of a friend, coach, or mentor to hold you accountable on your journey to change. Share your goals with someone you trust and regularly check in with them to track your progress. Having someone to support and encourage you can make a significant difference in staying motivated. It's crucial to break free from the shackles of our old habits and embrace a new way of living that aligns with our values and aspirations. By consciously choosing to memorize what matters, we can pave the way for a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life. Let go of the past, embrace the present, and create a future that resonates with your purpose. CHALLENGE: What are you doing today to memorize what matters? "Our habits reflect our innermost desires, the passion that is palpable in our hearts. Choose wisely what you choose to memorize." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's time to erase the negative and focus on what truly matters – your happiness, growth, and passion. Take the first step toward what God desires for you, leaving behind what clutters your heart. Memorize What Matters. "Be present. Be incredible.

We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” ~ 2 Corinthians 5:20 We have a responsibility to show up the way God has called us. So why are we running in the other direction? Come back to God! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In a day that consumes our hearts and distracts our minds to lessen our connection to God, He still waits for you. But we keep plowing through our to-do lists, cleaning the house, cooking dinner, yelling at the kids, screaming at our sweethearts, and scrolling faster through our reels that we forget what is most important. Come back to God! God wants to work miracles in you and through you. But you have to ready your mind, body, and spirit for how He wants you to show up every day. Do life with God living authentically His way, not yours. The K.I.S.S. ~ Come back to God!   As the world spins faster and faster, pulling us in every direction imaginable, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. In the midst of chaos, stress, and distractions, the gentle whisper of God calling us back to Him can easily be drowned out. In a society that glorifies busyness and self-sufficiency, it’s all too common to let our connection with God fall by the wayside. We get caught up in the never-ending cycle of responsibilities – work, chores, relationships, social media – and we push aside the one relationship that should take priority above all else. But amidst the noise and chaos, God’s voice remains constant, beckoning us to return to Him. So why do we resist? Why do we run? Perhaps it’s the fear of surrendering control, the discomfort of facing our shortcomings, or simply the allure of worldly distractions. But in truth, God’s call to “Come back to God!” is not a demand for perfection, but an invitation to experience His grace, forgiveness, and transformative power. When you align your lives with God’s will and surrender your plans to His divine purpose, you open the door for miracles to unfold. It’s in the moments of quiet surrender, heartfelt prayer, and intentional presence that you allow God to work wonders in and through you. By choosing to walk in authenticity and obedience to HIm, His Word, and His commandments, you pave the way for His light to shine brightly in your life. So, let us heed the call. Come back to God! Prioritize your relationship with Him above all else, seeking His presence in the midst of your daily chaos and challenges. As you draw near to God with a humble heart and an open mind, you will find the strength, peace, and guidance we need to navigate life’s ups and downs with faith and assurance. Tap into God's Positioning System designed just for you (iGPS). Today, don't hesitate. Be still and feel His presence. Embrace the truth and embrace your role as an ambassador of Christ, boldly proclaiming His message of love, redemption, and salvation to a world in desperate need of hope. Come back to God, and let His light shine through you today and always. "Be present. Be incredible.

But we keep plowing through our to-do lists, cleaning the house, cooking dinner, yelling at the kids, screaming at our sweethearts, and scrolling faster through our reels that we forget what is most important. Come back to God! God wants to work miracles in you and through you. But you have to ready your mind, body, and spirit for how He wants you to show up every day. Do life with God living authentically His way, not yours. The K.I.S.S. ~ Come back to God!   As the world spins faster and faster, pulling us in every direction imaginable, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. In the midst of chaos, stress, and distractions, the gentle whisper of God calling us back to Him can easily be drowned out. In a society that glorifies busyness and self-sufficiency, it’s all too common to let our connection with God fall by the wayside. We get caught up in the never-ending cycle of responsibilities – work, chores, relationships, social media – and we push aside the one relationship that should take priority above all else. But amidst the noise and chaos, God’s voice remains constant, beckoning us to return to Him. So why do we resist? Why do we run? Perhaps it’s the fear of surrendering control, the discomfort of facing our shortcomings, or simply the allure of worldly distractions. But in truth, God’s call to “Come back to God!” is not a demand for perfection, but an invitation to experience His grace, forgiveness, and transformative power. When you align your lives with God’s will and surrender your plans to His divine purpose, you open the door for miracles to unfold. It’s in the moments of quiet surrender, heartfelt prayer, and intentional presence that you allow God to work wonders in and through you. By choosing to walk in authenticity and obedience to HIm, His Word, and His commandments, you pave the way for His light to shine brightly in your life. So, let us heed the call. Come back to God! Prioritize your relationship with Him above all else, seeking His presence in the midst of your daily chaos and challenges. As you draw near to God with a humble heart and an open mind, you will find the strength, peace, and guidance we need to navigate life’s ups and downs with faith and assurance. Tap into God's Positioning System designed just for you (iGPS). Today, don't hesitate. Be still and feel His presence. Embrace the truth and embrace your role as an ambassador of Christ, boldly proclaiming His message of love, redemption, and salvation to a world in desperate need of hope. Come back to God, and let His light shine through you today and always. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Don't let yourself stay trapped in the status quo; transform your marriage one thank you at a time. In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy to overlook the significance of expressing appreciation towards our partners. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We want to get what is needed done and hit the hay, so we can start another day. What have your days looked like lately? Are they fairytale ones that have you all googly eyes and heart-pounding moments? Probably not! You are spinning your wheels, running around like a chicken with your head cut off, or simply sitting in a corner giving yourself an "oh woes me" party. What if you slowed down to actually see and hear your spouse? What if you made a point every day to express your appreciation for their presence? Taking the time to cultivate a spirit of gratitude within a marriage works wonders in strengthening the bond between spouses, fostering mutual respect, and nurturing a lasting love that can weather any storm. You will be amazed at what gratitude does for your marriage. "Gratitude is the cornerstone of a fulfilling and joyful relationship. It's like watering a garden; when you nourish it with appreciation, love blooms and grows stronger." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, if you want a stronger marriage, nourish it with appreciation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nourish your marriage with appreciation!   To facilitate the growth of gratitude and fortify the foundation of love in your marriage, here are three actionable steps that Kristianne Wargo recommends: 1. RENEW - Start Each Day with a Thank You: Embrace the power of mornings by setting the tone for the day ahead with a sincere expression of gratitude towards your spouse. Whether it's a simple "Thank you for making breakfast" or a heartfelt acknowledgment of their support, starting the day on a positive note can create a ripple effect of warmth and appreciation throughout the day. "A grateful heart sets the stage for a harmonious day. By beginning each morning with a genuine thank you, you lay the groundwork for a day filled with love and connection." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. RESTORE - Celebrate Small Moments: In the journey of marriage, it's often the little things that matter the most. Take the time to celebrate small moments of joy and kindness shared between you and your spouse. Whether it's a spontaneous hug, a shared laughter over a cup of coffee, a text, or a thoughtful gesture, acknowledging and appreciating these fleeting moments can strengthen the emotional connection between partners. "Celebrating small moments of love and joy enriches the tapestry of your marriage. When you notice and appreciate these moments, you weave a bond of gratitude that sustains your marriage through ups and downs." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. REVIVE - Express Gratitude Through Actions: While words have the power to uplift and inspire, actions speak volumes in the language of love. Show your appreciation for your spouse through thoughtful gestures, acts of service, and loving deeds that convey your gratitude in tangible ways. Whether it's preparing their favorite meal, surprising them with a handwritten note, or lending a helping hand without being asked, actions rooted in gratitude speak louder than words. "Actions fueled by gratitude demonstrate the depth of your love and appreciation for your partner. When you strive to show gratitude through your deeds, you create a bond that is resilient and unwavering." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Embracing a spirit of gratitude within your marriage not only enriches your relationship but also nourishes your soul with love and blessings. Learn to love deep and well; it only takes one thank you at a time. "Be present. Be incredible.

It is a journey where we strive to make the best decisions for our children, to protect them from harm, and to nurture them into strong, compassionate individuals. But in a world filled with uncertainties and struggles, how can we ensure that our children grow up to be resilient and successful? Where do we draw the line for ourselves and for them? Do you have a promise to keep? I think we do as parents: to raise up our kids with the abilities to impact the world they touch. And we just can't sit back and pretend that it's going to be easy.

As parents, it is essential to model the values and behaviors we wish to instill in our children. Whether it is showing kindness to others, demonstrating resilience in the face of adversity, or pursuing our passions with determination, our actions speak louder than words. "Children are great imitators. So give them something great to imitate." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Encourage Independence: While it is natural to want to protect our children from failure and disappointment, it is equally important to allow them the freedom to make mistakes and learn from them. By encouraging independence and decision-making skills, we empower our children to develop critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. "Empower your children to take ownership of their actions and decisions. Let them learn from their mistakes and grow stronger." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Foster Resilience: Life is not always smooth sailing, and challenges are inevitable. By teaching our children to embrace failures as opportunities for growth, we equip them with the resilience to navigate life's ups and downs with grace and courage. "Resilience is not about avoiding struggles but about facing them head-on and emerging stronger and wiser." ~ Kristianne Wargo In the journey of parenthood, we carry a promise in our hearts - a promise to nurture, support, and guide our children towards a bright and adventurous future.

If you continue to live with the obligations, to-do lists, and distractions leading your day, your joy will fade quickly. Simplify the complicated. Why is it that we keep allowing ourselves to drown in the busyness of life? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's a bit ridiculous! And I'm not just talking to you! By golly, I do the same thing. We rush from one place to another, ticking off tasks, yet feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and lacking in joy. And you wonder why everyone is crabby. Here's the thing, you don't have to live a live from rush. As my friend,, Teresa McCloy says, "You can live a life from rest, not rush." Your craziness and chaos will only simmer down, if you are willing to calm down, too. And that means you gotta simplify the complicated. The K.I.S.S. ~ Simplify the complicated!   Reclaim Your Peace through Presence When we're lost in the whirlwind of tasks and obligations, it's easy to lose touch with the present moment. By embracing presence, we can ground ourselves in the here and now, releasing worries about the past and anxieties about the future. Through simple mindfulness practices like deep breathing and mindful awareness, we can cultivate a sense of calm and clarity in the midst of chaos. Slow Down to Savour Life In a world that values speed and efficiency, slowing down can feel counterintuitive. However, it's in these moments of pause that we can truly savor life's beauty and richness. By simplifying our schedules, focusing on one task at a time, and embracing moments of rest and relaxation, we can rediscover the joy of being present in the moment. Release the Burden of Perfectionism Perfectionism can be a heavy weight to carry, causing stress, anxiety, and a sense of never being 'enough.' By letting go of the need for everything to be perfect, we can free ourselves from self-imposed constraints and embrace the beauty of imperfection. Accepting our flaws and limitations allows us to cultivate self-compassion and find joy in the journey, rather than fixating on the destination. Align with Your True Priorities When we're overwhelmed with commitments and responsibilities, it can be challenging to discern what truly matters to us. By clarifying our values, setting boundaries, and aligning our actions with our priorities, we can create a more meaningful and purposeful life. Simplifying our focus allows us to let go of distractions and hone in on what brings us true joy and fulfillment. Rediscover the Beauty of Simple Pleasures In a world that bombards us with stimuli and distractions, it's easy to overlook the beauty of simplicity. By embracing small moments of joy – a sunrise, a warm cup of tea, a heartfelt conversation – we can reconnect with the essence of life. Simplifying our surroundings, decluttering our minds, and making space for moments of quiet reflection can help us appreciate the richness and depth of the present moment. As you navigate the overwhelm and busyness of life, remember that simplicity is not a destination but a daily practice. By embracing the path of simplicity, you can find peace, joy, and fulfillment amidst the chaos. Take a deep breath, slow down, and embrace the beauty of simplicity.

And I'm not just talking to you! By golly, I do the same thing. We rush from one place to another, ticking off tasks, yet feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and lacking in joy. And you wonder why everyone is crabby. Here's the thing, you don't have to live a live from rush. As my friend,, Teresa McCloy says, "You can live a life from rest, not rush." Your craziness and chaos will only simmer down, if you are willing to calm down, too. And that means you gotta simplify the complicated. The K.I.S.S. ~ Simplify the complicated!   Reclaim Your Peace through Presence When we're lost in the whirlwind of tasks and obligations, it's easy to lose touch with the present moment. By embracing presence, we can ground ourselves in the here and now, releasing worries about the past and anxieties about the future. Through simple mindfulness practices like deep breathing and mindful awareness, we can cultivate a sense of calm and clarity in the midst of chaos.

Does healthy living win, or does your gut lose? Whether you want a change or not, remember how you feel. Because honestly, that is what matters. When you eat the wrong things, stop doing what lubricates your body, and inhale stress like you do candy, the only thing that might help you escape is your feelings.

The mind, body, and spirit collect data that creates a living equation for you every day. You either have the tools to enjoy and thrive. Or you are sent on a mission to figure out a way to survive. What are you doing when it comes to healthy living? Are you relying on what you know, or lingering on what works for the average? Oh, my friend, your body is not average!

Your body knows what it needs; all you have to do is listen. So, how can you tune in to your body's wisdom and honor your feelings for a more balanced, fulfilling life? 1. Practice Mindful Eating: Next time you sit down to a meal, slow down and savor each bite. Pay attention to how different foods make you feel physically and emotionally. Take the time to nurture your holistic well-being. 2. Recharge Yourself: Carve out time in your busy schedule for self-care practices. Whether it's a walk in nature, a relaxing bath, or a few moments of meditation, prioritize activities that nourish your mind, body, and spirit. "There is no way you can fool what your body knows to be true. Embrace your feelings as valuable messenger." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Honor Your Emotional Landscape &amp; Language: Your emotions are a vital part of your internal guidance positioning system (iGPS). Instead of numbing them with distractions, allow yourself to feel and process your emotions in a healthy manner. Listen to the words you repeat in your head or out loud. They matter, too. Remember that your feelings are there to guide you towards a life of authenticity and well-being. This is your presence! Your body is not average; it is a unique vessel with its own individual needs and preferences. By pausing to acknowledge and honor your feelings, you can embark on a journey of self-discovery and holistic wellness. Let go of the habits that no longer serve you.

If you find yourself hesitating to pursue your dreams or to take a leap of faith, sometimes, you must walk through the fire.

Your heart's passion is not a coincidence – it is a calling waiting to be answered. The K.I.S.S. ~ Walk through the fire!   Iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17). What are you doing to walk through the fire? Or are you doing everything to avoid it? Let go of your fears and doubts. Take that first step into the flames and watch as you are transformed. It's about jumping in. It's about feeling the heat. Embrace the fire, knowing that on the other side lies a more refined, more radiant version of who you are becoming. Walk through the fire, not because it is easy, but because it is necessary for you to grow, to be stretched, to be changed, to be moved, to be YOU!!! Embrace the challenges, trust in your abilities, and emerge stronger, wiser, and more intentional than ever before. You are capable of greatness – all you have to do is take that next step.

What are you doing to walk through the fire? Or are you doing everything to avoid it? Let go of your fears and doubts. Take that first step into the flames and watch as you are transformed. It's about jumping in. It's about feeling the heat. Embrace the fire, knowing that on the other side lies a more refined, more radiant version of who you are becoming. Walk through the fire, not because it is easy, but because it is necessary for you to grow, to be stretched, to be changed, to be moved, to be YOU!!! Embrace the challenges, trust in your abilities, and emerge stronger, wiser, and more intentional than ever before. You are capable of greatness – all you have to do is take that next step.

It's time to break the silent assumption. This silent expectation can lead to a host of problems, including miscommunication, unmet expectations, and emotional distance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Pitfalls of Mind-Reading Assumptions in Marriages: Assuming your partner can read your mind sets the stage for misunderstanding and frustration. "Mind-reading in marriage can lead to feelings of neglect and resentment. It's essential to communicate openly to avoid these pitfalls." ~ Kristianne Wargo Expressing Love Amidst Assumptions: To demonstrate love effectively in a relationship marred by assumptions, open and candid communication becomes paramount. Love not only thrives on understanding but also on verbalizing desires, needs, and thoughts to bridge any gaps. "Love is about being vulnerable and transparent. Assuming your spouse knows what you need, only builds walls, not bridges." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Build the bridges!   Three Strategies to Avoid Mind-Reading Assumptions: 1. Practice Active Communication: Make a conscious effort to communicate your thoughts and emotions directly, rather than expecting your partner to discern them implicitly.  Instead of assuming your spouse knows you're upset because of a stressful day at work, express your feelings by saying, "I had a tough day today, and I could use some support." 2. Establish Clear Expectations: Clearly outline your expectations and desires to prevent misunderstandings and unmet needs. If you prefer a phone call when your partner is running late, communicate this preference ahead of time to avoid assumptions. 3. Seek Clarification: Instead of jumping to conclusions or assuming your partner's intentions, ask for clarification when in doubt to foster open dialogue and mutual understanding. Instead of assuming your partner's reason for a certain action, ask them directly, "Can you help me understand why you did that?"

It's time to break the silent assumption. This silent expectation can lead to a host of problems, including miscommunication, unmet expectations, and emotional distance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Pitfalls of Mind-Reading Assumptions in Marriages: Assuming your partner can read your mind sets the stage for misunderstanding and frustration. "Mind-reading in marriage can lead to feelings of neglect and resentment. It's essential to communicate openly to avoid these pitfalls." ~ Kristianne Wargo Expressing Love Amidst Assumptions: To demonstrate love effectively in a relationship marred by assumptions, open and candid communication becomes paramount. Love not only thrives on understanding but also on verbalizing desires, needs, and thoughts to bridge any gaps. "Love is about being vulnerable and transparent. Assuming your spouse knows what you need, only builds walls, not bridges." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Build the bridges!   Three Strategies to Avoid Mind-Reading Assumptions: 1. Practice Active Communication: Make a conscious effort to communicate your thoughts and emotions directly, rather than expecting your partner to discern them implicitly.  Instead of assuming your spouse knows you're upset because of a stressful day at work, express your feelings by saying, "I had a tough day today, and I could use some support." 2. Establish Clear Expectations: Clearly outline your expectations and desires to prevent misunderstandings and unmet needs. If you prefer a phone call when your partner is running late, communicate this preference ahead of time to avoid assumptions. 3. Seek Clarification: Instead of jumping to conclusions or assuming your partner's intentions, ask for clarification when in doubt to foster open dialogue and mutual understanding. Instead of assuming your partner's reason for a certain action, ask them directly, "Can you help me understand why you did that?" By proactively engaging in honest conversations, setting clear boundaries, and seeking clarity when needed, couples can sidestep the dangers of mind-reading assumptions and cultivate a relationship grounded in trust, respect, and genuine communication.

However, as parents, we can be hyper-focused on all the activities and lose sight of our own children and who they are becoming. It's the battle of To Do vs. To Be. This is what a day in a life as a parent looks like. Our days are often filled with endless to-do lists and bustling activities, leaving little room to pause and truly connect with our children on a deeper level. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the midst of the chaos, it's crucial to strike a balance between the tasks we need to accomplish and the essence of who our children are meant to be. And that's where you have the battle of "To Do vs. To Be." What is it like in your home? Depending on the stages and ages of your children, you could be looking at temper tantrums to back talk to fiesty four-letter words to just being ignored. It's a whirlwind of tornados that stretch in ways you never thought you would be stretched.  But you show up for your kids every day! And that's the key! "Parenting is not just about what we do for our children; it's about guiding them to embrace their unique essence and fulfill their divine destiny." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, from what side of the battle are you fighting? Is it that you are too busy and don't make time for heart to heart conversations? Is it that you are in a season that too much is happening and you don't have the stamina and stability to extend yourself further? To Do vs. To Be What can you do to nurture your child not in their outward skills, what everyone sees, but in their inward skills, what everyone feels? The K.I.S.S. ~ Engage more than you direct!   Here are three essential strategies for mothers to nurture their children's authentic selves and support them in becoming who God created them to be: 1. Cultivate Meaningful Connections: In the hectic pace of modern life, it's essential to prioritize genuine connections with your children. "Building strong bonds with your child lays the foundation for them to feel seen, heard, and valued." ~ Kristianne Wargo Real Life Example: Dedicate quality time each day for one-on-one conversations with your child, free from distractions. Engage in activities they enjoy, such as baking together, taking walks, or simply sitting down to share stories and laughter. 2. Empower Self-Discovery: Encourage your child to explore their passions, talents, and inner truths. "Facilitating self-discovery allows children to uncover their unique gifts and purpose in life." ~ Kristianne Wargo Real Life Example: Create a "treasure chest" with your child, where they can fill it with items that represent their dreams, aspirations, and interests. Support them in trying new experiences and hobbies, fostering a sense of exploration and self-expression. 3. Embrace Moments of Stillness: Amidst the chaos of daily responsibilities, make space for quiet moments of reflection and connection with your child.  "Silent moments allow for deeper connections and insights to emerge, fostering a sense of peace and clarity." ~ Kristianne Wargo Real Life Example: Establish a daily ritual of gratitude and mindfulness with your child, where you can share what you're thankful for and reflect on the beauty of life together. These moments of stillness can strengthen your bond and nurture your child's spiritual growth. "Parenting is a sacred journey of nurturing your child's heart and soul, guiding them to embrace their true essence and shine brightly in the world." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing the delicate harmony of "To Do vs. To Be" in your daily interactions with your children, you can create a nurturing environment where they thrive as the unique individuals they were destined to be. "It's not about the busy; it's about the being!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

Resting does not equate to giving up or being lazy. Instead, it is a strategic pause that allows your mind, body, and spirit to recharge, rejuvenate, and refocus.

Resting allows our minds to unwind and process the vast amount of information we encounter daily. It gives us the clarity and perspective needed to tackle challenges with renewed energy and creativity. Moreover, rest plays a crucial role in our physical health, helping to reduce stress, improve immune function, and prevent burnout. In a world that values constant motion and endless productivity, it’s time to redefine success and prioritize our well-being.

The struggle to resist the temptation of junk is real; try to humanize your goals and live healthily. This is where the concept of humanizing your goals comes into play - making your health aspirations relatable and achievable where you are in your life.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yes, you need a challenge, but it shouldn't be something that is so far-fetched that you don't even want to go after it 2 weeks later. I want to emphasize the importance of aligning your goals with your everyday life. You need to come down to earth with your ambitions, and create a sustainable path towards a healthier lifestyle; create your now! So, if you want to live a different lifestyle, you gotta humanize your goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Humanize your goals!   Here are three practical steps to humanize your goals for healthy living: 1. Personalize Your Approach Instead of setting broad, impersonal goals like "lose weight" or "eat clean", try to tailor your aspirations to suit your individual preferences and lifestyle. For example, if you enjoy dancing, set a goal to incorporate dance workouts into your weekly routine. This way, you're not forcing yourself to do something you dread, but rather integrating an activity that brings you joy. "Your health goals should reflect who you are, not who you think you should be. Embrace activities that align with your passions." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Make Room for Oopsies These are your indulgences. Depriving yourself of your favorite treats can lead to feelings of restriction and eventual burnout. Instead of banning all indulgences, practice moderation and mindfulness in your eating habits. Allow yourself to savor a small serving of your favorite dessert occasionally without any guilt attached. "Healthy living is about harmony, not perfection. Enjoying a treat now and then can actually contribute to your overall well-being by satisfying your cravings in a controlled manner." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Celebrate Small Wins Break down your ultimate health goals into smaller, tangible milestones that you can celebrate along the way. Whether it's completing a week of consistent workouts or trying a new vegetable recipe, acknowledge and reward yourself for each achievement. This positive reinforcement will keep you motivated and engaged in your healthy living journey. "Success is not just reaching the finish line; it's about embracing the journey and applauding yourself for every step forward. Each small victory brings you closer to your larger goal of holistic well-being. This is honoring who you are and who you are becoming." ~ Kristianne Wargo By humanizing your health goals and infusing them with personalization, harmony, and recognition of progress, you can transform your outlook on healthy living. Embrace the process, be kind to yourself, and remember that small steps taken consistently lead to significant results. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Your health goals are a reflection of your self-care journey. Treat yourself with the same compassion you would offer to anyone." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As the 2024 United States Presidential election approaches, the air is thick with uncertainty and anticipation. Many wonder about the implications of who will lead the country and what impact it will have on their lives. However, amidst the whirlwind of political debates and promises, there is a powerful notion that often goes overlooked – the ability to make decisions that shape your own future, regardless of who sits in the Oval Office. In a world where political landscapes can shift overnight, one thing remains constant – your power to choose. By embracing this mindset, you can unlock a new level of agency and control over your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cast a vote for yourself!   Here are some key points to consider when it comes to making decisions that align with your dreams, regardless of who wins at the election box: 1. Define Your Dreams: Take the time to reflect on what truly matters to you. What are your long-term goals, aspirations, and values? By clarifying your vision for the future, you can make decisions that are in alignment with your authentic self. 2. Embrace Personal Responsibility: While external factors may influence our circumstances, ultimately, we are the masters of our own destiny. By taking ownership of your choices and actions, you can steer your life in the direction of your dreams. 3. Cultivate a Growth Mindset: Approach challenges and setbacks as opportunities for comebacks, growth, and learning. By adopting a growth mindset, you can overcome obstacles with resilience and determination, moving closer to your goals with each decision you make. 4. Take Inspired Action: Rather than waiting for the "perfect" moment or external validation, take inspired action toward your dreams. Each small step you take brings you closer to the reality you envision for yourself. 5. Stay Committed to Your Vision: In the face of uncertainty and change, hold steadfast to your dreams. By staying true to your vision and values, you can navigate life's twists and turns with integrity and purpose. As the 2024 election draws near, remember that the power to shape your future lies within you. By making decisions that reflect your dreams and values, you can create a life that is truly your own, regardless of who emerges victorious at the ballot box. So, dare to cast a vote for yourself – your dreams are waiting for you to make them a reality. "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if we shifted our perspective and embraced the idea that adventure starts in the heart? I want to encourage you on how to champion your approach to pursuing your dreams. At the core of every great adventure lies the courage and passion in our hearts. By tapping into this inner fire and letting go of fear and doubt, you can unlock your greatness.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the heartbeat of your soul!   Here are three actionable steps to guide you on your path to living a life of purpose and adventure: 1. Cultivate Self-Confidence: Believe in Yourself Believe in the power within you. Trust your instincts and capabilities to guide you towards your dreams. "Confidence is not a destination, it's a decision." ~ Kristianne Wargo Make the conscious choice to believe in yourself, even in the face of adversity. 2. Embrace Imperfection: Progress Over Perfection It's okay to stumble and make mistakes along the way. Embrace the journey, flaws and all, as it is part of the adventure. "Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself. Create your now!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Focus on progress and growth, rather than striving for unattainable perfection. 3. Take A.I.M.: Seize the Day Don't wait for the perfect moment; create it. Seize every opportunity to follow your heart and pursue your passions. "Shine bright and be the light you're called to be." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace each day as a chance to take bold action toward your dreams. It's time to let go of what you can't control and ignite the spark within you.  Adventure starts in the heart. "Be present. Be incredible.

What if you left fear and doubt out of the equation and embraced the idea that adventure starts in the heart? In a world filled with distractions and obstacles, it's easy to lose sight of our dreams and aspirations. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We often find ourselves waiting for the perfect moment, the right opportunity, or the approval of others before taking the first step toward our goals. But what if we shifted our perspective and embraced the idea that adventure starts in the heart? I want to encourage you on how to champion your approach to pursuing your dreams. At the core of every great adventure lies the courage and passion in our hearts. By tapping into this inner fire and letting go of fear and doubt, you can unlock your greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, how can we silence the voices of uncertainty and embrace the rhythm of our hearts? The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the heartbeat of your soul!   Here are three actionable steps to guide you on your path to living a life of purpose and adventure: 1. Cultivate Self-Confidence: Believe in Yourself Believe in the power within you. Trust your instincts and capabilities to guide you towards your dreams. "Confidence is not a destination, it's a decision." ~ Kristianne Wargo Make the conscious choice to believe in yourself, even in the face of adversity. 2. Embrace Imperfection: Progress Over Perfection It's okay to stumble and make mistakes along the way. Embrace the journey, flaws and all, as it is part of the adventure. "Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself. Create your now!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Focus on progress and growth, rather than striving for unattainable perfection. 3. Take A.I.M.: Seize the Day Don't wait for the perfect moment; create it. Seize every opportunity to follow your heart and pursue your passions. "Shine bright and be the light you're called to be." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace each day as a chance to take bold action toward your dreams. It's time to let go of what you can't control and ignite the spark within you.  Adventure starts in the heart. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But as believers, we have access to a love that surpasses all understanding – a love found in Jesus Christ, a secure love. The Bible is filled with verses that remind us of the secure love we have in our Savior. In Psalm 36:7, we are assured that, "How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What a beautiful picture that's painted of God's protective love surrounding us, providing us with a safe haven in the midst of life's storms. In 1 John 4:16, we are reminded that, "So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him." This is an inseparable bond between God and His children, emphasizing the security that comes from resting in His love. As humans, we often try to find security in our own strengths and abilities. However, Proverbs 3:5-6 urges us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding. By acknowledging God's sovereignty and entrusting our lives to Him, we can experience a sense of peace and security that cannot be shaken by the uncertainties of this world. The K.I.S.S. ~ Secure love!   In Matthew 11:28, Jesus extends an invitation to all who are weary and burdened, saying, "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." This promise of rest in Him is a reminder that we do not have to carry our burdens alone, but can find solace in the loving arms of our Savior. So, sweet friend, if you find yourself searching for a love that is secure and unwavering, look no further than Jesus Christ. Lean on Him, rest in His presence, and allow His love to be the anchor that holds you steady in the midst of life's storms. May you find peace and security in the arms of the One who loves you more than you can ever imagine. "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." - 1 Peter 5:7 "Be present. Be incredible.

So, unveil the power of respect in your marriage. Without respect, what remains in the sanctity of matrimony? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Respect in marriage begins with a profound journey of self-discovery. A lot of marriages suffer or have problems because the two individuals committed to one another doesn't know the person they see in the mirror. Before extending admiration and consideration to your partner, it is imperative to first honor and respect yourself; love your reflection. "The essence of respecting your significant other stems from acknowledging your own worth and value. Only by nurturing self-respect can we authentically radiate respect towards our beloved." By embracing self-love and self-respect, you pave the way for a deeper connection with your spouse. So, who do you see in the mirror? Are you mad at yourself most of the time? Are you kind to those eyes and that heart? If you want to cultivate respect, you've gotta live it so you can be it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live it so you can be it!   You are the only one you control. You can't look to your spouse and tell them they need to respect you more. You get to create your now and show that you respect yourself, and that will translate to your spouse as they need to do the same with you. Three Pillars of Respect: Actions to Strengthen Your Foundation in your marriage. 1. Practice Active Listening Truly listening to your partner without interruptions or distractions demonstrates a deep level of respect. "Listening is more than hearing words; it is understanding the emotions behind them. When we listen actively, we show our partner that their thoughts and feelings matter." "Communication transcends mere words; it embodies the art of active listening – listening not to respond, but to understand. Genuine respect flourishes when we honor and value our partner's voice." 2. Express Appreciation and Gratitude Regularly acknowledging and appreciating your partner's efforts and qualities cultivates an atmosphere of respect and admiration. "Gratitude is the language of respect in marriage. By expressing appreciation, we not only lift our partner's spirits but also strengthen the foundation of our relationship." 3. Set Boundaries and Honor Differences Respecting your partner's boundaries and accepting their individuality is crucial for fostering mutual respect. "Respect thrives in a space where boundaries are respected, and differences are honored. Embracing each other's uniqueness strengthens the fabric of your bond." What you are doing is crafting a symphony of unconditional love that has the rhythms of respect, forgiveness, and confidence. Let the melody of your daily dance of empathy and compassion be the thread that binds you together. Respect in marriage is not a static principle, but a dynamic practice that demands intentional effort and devotion. "Be present. Be incredible.

You get to create your now and show that you respect yourself, and that will translate to your spouse as they need to do the same with you. Three Pillars of Respect: Actions to Strengthen Your Foundation in your marriage. 1. Practice Active Listening Truly listening to your partner without interruptions or distractions demonstrates a deep level of respect. "Listening is more than hearing words; it is understanding the emotions behind them. When we listen actively, we show our partner that their thoughts and feelings matter." "Communication transcends mere words; it embodies the art of active listening – listening not to respond, but to understand. Genuine respect flourishes when we honor and value our partner's voice." 2. Express Appreciation and Gratitude Regularly acknowledging and appreciating your partner's efforts and qualities cultivates an atmosphere of respect and admiration. "Gratitude is the language of respect in marriage. By expressing appreciation, we not only lift our partner's spirits but also strengthen the foundation of our relationship." 3. Set Boundaries and Honor Differences Respecting your partner's boundaries and accepting their individuality is crucial for fostering mutual respect. "Respect thrives in a space where boundaries are respected, and differences are honored. Embracing each other's uniqueness strengthens the fabric of your bond." What you are doing is crafting a symphony of unconditional love that has the rhythms of respect, forgiveness, and confidence. Let the melody of your daily dance of empathy and compassion be the thread that binds you together. Respect in marriage is not a static principle, but a dynamic practice that demands intentional effort and devotion. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As parents, we must make adjustments to keep the routine. Change the time; don't change the routine. As a parent, it's essential to empower your child to establish and stick to their routines to really champion productivity and success in their everyday lives.

How does it vary, and on what days? Change the time; don't change the routine. Empower the magic routines. The K.I.S.S. ~ Empower the magic routines!   Here are three key things you can do to support them in this journey: 1. Set Clear Expectations with Consistency: Communicate openly with your child about the importance of routines and how they contribute to their overall well-being and success. Encourage them to participate in creating their schedules, making them feel invested in the process. "Clarity breeds consistency. Consistency ignites productivity." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Lead by Example: Children learn by observing their parents, so it's crucial to exemplify good habits and routines in your own life. Show them the benefits of structure and organization through your actions. "Your children see you. Be the example. Let consistency be the guiding light for their childhood success." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Provide Support and Flexibility: While routines are essential, it's also crucial to be understanding and flexible when necessary. Life can be unpredictable, and teaching your child to adapt to changes while maintaining their core routines will equip them with valuable life skills. "Routines provide a solid foundation, but it's the flexibility within them that cultivates resilience." ~ Kristianne Wargo By implementing these strategies and fostering a supportive environment, you can help your child navigate time zone changes without letting them become obstacles to their success. Remember, never let the ticking clock dictate your child's potential. Empower them to own their time and routines. "Be present. Be incredible.

At some point, you need to be reasonable and honest with yourself. Maybe you don't do what you know works. The world we live in has constant innovation and change dominating the wellness industry; sometimes, we overlook the simple truths we already know.

It's time to break the cycle of self-sabotage and embrace the power of doing what works for us. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the cycle of self-sabotage!   1. Establish a Routine of Self-Care Start your day with a glass of water and a brief meditation session to center yourself. Incorporate a 20-minute walk during lunchtime to recharge your energy and clear your mind. Before bed, unwind with a calming herbal tea and a good book to promote restful sleep. "Consistency is the key to lasting change. By turning healthy actions into daily rituals, we get to create your now." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Prioritize Nutritious Eating Habits Prepare balanced meals ahead of time to avoid impulse junk food choices. Incorporate a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables into your daily diet. Avoid processed foods high in sugar and sodium, opting for whole foods that nourish your body from within. "Nutrition is the cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle. By fueling our bodies with high-quality foods, you can unlock your full potential." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Embrace Intentional Movement Find physical activities that bring you joy, whether it's dancing, yoga, or weightlifting. Schedule regular workout sessions in your calendar to hold yourself accountable. Mix up your routine to prevent boredom and plateaus, ensuring long-term commitment to fitness goals. "Movement is medicine for both the body and the mind. Challenge yourself to stay active and discover the transformative power of exercise." ~ Kristianne Wargo Incorporating these simple yet powerful habits into your daily life can lead to profound changes in your overall well-being. By committing to what works and maintaining consistency, you empower yourself to live a healthier and happier life. Remember, the key lies in taking action and prioritizing your health each day.

At some point, you need to be reasonable and honest with yourself. Maybe you don't do what you know works. The world we live in has constant innovation and change dominating the wellness industry; sometimes, we overlook the simple truths we already know.

It's time to break the cycle of self-sabotage and embrace the power of doing what works for us. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the cycle of self-sabotage!   1. Establish a Routine of Self-Care Start your day with a glass of water and a brief meditation session to center yourself. Incorporate a 20-minute walk during lunchtime to recharge your energy and clear your mind. Before bed, unwind with a calming herbal tea and a good book to promote restful sleep. "Consistency is the key to lasting change. By turning healthy actions into daily rituals, we get to create your now." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Prioritize Nutritious Eating Habits Prepare balanced meals ahead of time to avoid impulse junk food choices. Incorporate a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables into your daily diet. Avoid processed foods high in sugar and sodium, opting for whole foods that nourish your body from within. "Nutrition is the cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle. By fueling our bodies with high-quality foods, you can unlock your full potential." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Embrace Intentional Movement Find physical activities that bring you joy, whether it's dancing, yoga, or weightlifting. Schedule regular workout sessions in your calendar to hold yourself accountable. Mix up your routine to prevent boredom and plateaus, ensuring long-term commitment to fitness goals. "Movement is medicine for both the body and the mind. Challenge yourself to stay active and discover the transformative power of exercise." ~ Kristianne Wargo Incorporating these simple yet powerful habits into your daily life can lead to profound changes in your overall well-being. By committing to what works and maintaining consistency, you empower yourself to live a healthier and happier life. Remember, the key lies in taking action and prioritizing your health each day.

Acknowledge your own feelings, power, and capabilities. Embrace the challenges as opportunities for growth and transformation. There is no need to run and hide unless you are giving up. Turn on some good music and dance your way to happiness. When your body moves, you increase your endorphin rush, which means you feel better. So, surround yourself with positivity and inspiration.

Whether seeking guidance from God or from within, finding clarity on life's path is essential for a fulfilling life. Who doesn't want to live out their purpose? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But we can get lost in the noise and lose sight of the path we're meant to be on. We do what we think is best, sometimes missing the most fragile pivot because of the chaos around us. We're too busy!! What else is there to say? Think about how you are living out your purpose. In fact, do you know your purpose? Now, I do believe that as you grow older and wiser, your purpose can shift. Yet, how do you get from where you are to where you know you should be headed, if you don't know. Ya know? Confused yet?!? Who isn't? Life is complicated. Life is beautiful. Life is chaotic. Life is ever-changing. Life is frustrating. Life is life. However, life becomes more meaningful when you know the path. Get ready to find the pulse on life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the P.U.L.S.E.!   And that P.U.L.S.E. is the Path to Understanding Life's Spiritual Essence. Let's dive into the spiritual aspect of this conundrum, using wisdom from the Bible to guide us along the way. P - Pause for Reflection "Be still, and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10 Take moments throughout your day to pause, breathe, and reflect on your thoughts and emotions. This practice of mindfulness allows you to tune into your inner guidance and align with your true purpose. U - Unite with Positive Influences "Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm." - Proverbs 13:20 Surround yourself with people who uplift and inspire you on your journey. Connect with individuals who share your values and support your growth, fostering a positive environment for personal development. L - Listen to Your Inner Voice "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me." - John 10:27 Tune into your intuition and inner wisdom to gain insights into the direction you should be heading. Trust the whispers of your soul and let your inner guidance lead you toward clarity and alignment. S - Set Clear Intentions "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." - Proverbs 16:3 Define your goals and aspirations with clarity, breaking them down into actionable steps. By setting specific intentions and working towards them diligently, you can navigate your path with purpose and direction. E - Embrace the Journey "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." - Proverbs 3:5 Embrace each moment of your journey with gratitude and openness. Life's path may have twists and turns, but by embracing the experience and staying true to your values, you can find clarity and fulfillment along the way. Finding certainty in the path you're on is a journey of self-discovery and spiritual alignment. By incorporating these steps into your daily life, you can navigate with confidence and purpose. "The path may not always be clear, but with faith and determination, you can walk it with grace." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Yet, how do you get from where you are to where you know you should be headed, if you don't know. Ya know? Confused yet?!? Who isn't? Life is complicated. Life is beautiful. Life is chaotic. Life is ever-changing. Life is frustrating. Life is life. However, life becomes more meaningful when you know the path. Get ready to find the pulse on life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the P.U.L.S.E.!   And that P.U.L.S.E. is the Path to Understanding Life's Spiritual Essence. Let's dive into the spiritual aspect of this conundrum, using wisdom from the Bible to guide us along the way. P - Pause for Reflection "Be still, and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10 Take moments throughout your day to pause, breathe, and reflect on your thoughts and emotions. This practice of mindfulness allows you to tune into your inner guidance and align with your true purpose. U - Unite with Positive Influences "Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm." - Proverbs 13:20 Surround yourself with people who uplift and inspire you on your journey. Connect with individuals who share your values and support your growth, fostering a positive environment for personal development. L - Listen to Your Inner Voice "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me." - John 10:27 Tune into your intuition and inner wisdom to gain insights into the direction you should be heading. Trust the whispers of your soul and let your inner guidance lead you toward clarity and alignment. S - Set Clear Intentions "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." - Proverbs 16:3 Define your goals and aspirations with clarity, breaking them down into actionable steps. By setting specific intentions and working towards them diligently, you can navigate your path with purpose and direction. E - Embrace the Journey "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." - Proverbs 3:5 Embrace each moment of your journey with gratitude and openness. Life's path may have twists and turns, but by embracing the experience and staying true to your values, you can find clarity and fulfillment along the way. Finding certainty in the path you're on is a journey of self-discovery and spiritual alignment. By incorporating these steps into your daily life, you can navigate with confidence and purpose. "The path may not always be clear, but with faith and determination, you can walk it with grace." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Recognizing and addressing destructive patterns such as this is crucial in your marriage. "When you constantly feel like nothing you do is good enough for your partner, it's time to take a step back and reassess your priorities. You are worthy of love and acceptance just as you are, flaws and all." ~ Kristianne Wargo REFLECTION: Where are you when it comes to feeling like nothing you do is good enough? And be honest with yourself. Maybe you are struggling personally or as a couple. Maybe it applies to you only in certain situations. Regardless, if you want a change, you have to know what needs to change. You've got to acknowledge the hidden secrets. The K.I.S.S. ~ Acknowledge the hidden secrets!   And it's not the hidden secrets that you might be thinking of (i.e., affairs, gambling, drinking, drugs, etc.). But you have to be willing to bring out what's hiding in the dark into the light. Then, you can make changes accordingly. The first step in breaking free from the mindset that nothing you do is good enough is to CHALLENGE THE BELIEF. Your worth is not defined by your ability to meet unrealistic standards or assumptions; rather, it lies in your inherent value as a person. Instead of seeking validation from external sources, focus on cultivating self-compassion and self-acceptance. "You have to love yourself first before someone can love you." ~ Kristianne Wargo COMMUNICATION is key in any relationship, and addressing these feelings of inadequacy with your spouse is crucial. Express your concerns openly and honestly, allowing room for vulnerability and understanding. Remember, your partner is your ally, not your adversary. Together, you can work towards a healthier, more balanced dynamic based on mutual respect and support. In overcoming the cycle of perfectionism, you need to consider the importance of SELF-REFLECTION AND PERSONAL GROWTH. "Take the time to reconnect with yourself and rediscover your passions and strengths. Embrace the journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance, and watch as your relationships transform." ~ Kristianne Wargo By prioritizing your own well-being and self-worth, you can break free from the suffocating grip of perfectionism and rediscover the joy and authenticity in your marriage. Remember, you are enough, just as you are. "The love that binds comes from two hearts; one you know and the other you connect with." ~ Kristianne Wargo "True love begins with loving your reflection. Embrace your imperfections and let your light shine bright in the darkness of doubt." ~ Kristianne Wargo Overcoming the belief that nothing you do is good enough requires a shift in your mindset and a commitment to saying, "I need to do what I can control first and then reach beyond my own reflection."

But what happens when your child disappoints you? As parents, we invest our hearts and souls into raising children. We dream big dreams for them and hope for nothing but the best. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yet, sometimes our children fall short of our expectations, leaving us feeling disappointed and unsure of how to navigate through this challenging situation. But are you defined by your child's actions? What do you think? If you want to rise above the disappointments of your children, you gotta live life with your flare. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live life with YOUR flare!   Here are three things parents can do to rise above the disappointments of their children: 1. Self-Reflection and Self-Care: Take time for self-reflection to process your emotions and thoughts about the situation. Engage in activities that bring you peace and joy, whether it's meditation, exercise, or hobbies. Remember, you can only support your child effectively when you take care of yourself first. 2. Seek Support from Other Parents or a Therapist: It can be beneficial to seek support from fellow parents who may have experienced similar situations. Sharing your feelings and seeking advice from a trusted community can provide you with valuable insights and perspectives. Consider consulting a therapist or counselor to navigate through your emotions in a safe and confidential environment. 3. Set Boundaries and Practice Patience: Establish clear boundaries to protect your emotional well-being and maintain a healthy relationship with your child. Communicate your expectations calmly and assertively, and practice patience as you work through the challenges. Remember that it's okay to prioritize your mental health and set limits to ensure a harmonious environment for yourself and your family. Your child's disappointments have nothing to do with you!  They have to own their actions. Now, I will say that you do have an extreme influence on your children. So, depending on the age, it is important to look at how you can be a better parent.  However, if the kiddo is of age, they bear the responsibilities.

But what happens when your child disappoints you? As parents, we invest our hearts and souls into raising children. We dream big dreams for them and hope for nothing but the best. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yet, sometimes our children fall short of our expectations, leaving us feeling disappointed and unsure of how to navigate through this challenging situation. But are you defined by your child's actions? What do you think? If you want to rise above the disappointments of your children, you gotta live life with your flare. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live life with YOUR flare!   Here are three things parents can do to rise above the disappointments of their children: 1. Self-Reflection and Self-Care: Take time for self-reflection to process your emotions and thoughts about the situation. Engage in activities that bring you peace and joy, whether it's meditation, exercise, or hobbies. Remember, you can only support your child effectively when you take care of yourself first. 2. Seek Support from Other Parents or a Therapist: It can be beneficial to seek support from fellow parents who may have experienced similar situations. Sharing your feelings and seeking advice from a trusted community can provide you with valuable insights and perspectives. Consider consulting a therapist or counselor to navigate through your emotions in a safe and confidential environment. 3. Set Boundaries and Practice Patience: Establish clear boundaries to protect your emotional well-being and maintain a healthy relationship with your child. Communicate your expectations calmly and assertively, and practice patience as you work through the challenges. Remember that it's okay to prioritize your mental health and set limits to ensure a harmonious environment for yourself and your family. Your child's disappointments have nothing to do with you!  They have to own their actions. Now, I will say that you do have an extreme influence on your children. So, depending on the age, it is important to look at how you can be a better parent.  However, if the kiddo is of age, they bear the responsibilities. You don't have to like what they did, but you can still love your child. "Be present. Be incredible.

In a world where multitasking is praised and busyness is glorified, it's easy to fall into the trap of trying to be everything for everyone. The result? Overwhelm, stress, and a sense of constantly chasing your tail. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if there was a different way to approach your day, a way that not only eliminates overwhelm but also inspires and motivates you to pursue what truly matters? This is where leading with focus comes in. Leading with focus is about honing in on what truly matters to you, focusing your energy and attention on those things, and letting go of the rest. It's about prioritizing your tasks, setting clear goals, and taking intentional action toward achieving them. It's about turning overwhelm into opportunity and using it as a catalyst for growth and success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead with focus!   When you lead with focus, you create space for clarity and purpose in your life. You start each day with intention, knowing exactly what you want to achieve and how you're going to get there. You no longer waste time on tasks that don't align with your goals or values; instead, you channel your energy into activities that move you closer to your dreams. Leading with focus also allows you to overcome setbacks and challenges with resilience and determination. Instead of letting failures and shortcomings derail you, you see them as learning opportunities and stepping stones to success. You dust yourself off, learn from your mistakes, and keep moving forward with unwavering confidence. So, if overwhelm is weakening your day and holding you back from reaching your greatness and feeling alive, it's time to shift your mindset and lead with focus. There's no time like the present to take control of your life, prioritize what's important to you, and pursue it with passion and purpose. Start today, and watch as you transform overwhelm into opportunity, one focused step at a time. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

With busyness leading your day, are you tired of starting over? Don't let failure be associated with your healthy living anymore. Whether it's committing to a new workout routine, attempting a fad diet, or vowing to prioritize self-care, setbacks are all too common on the road to wellness. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But fear not, for there are ways to break this cycle and persist in reaching your goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what works now!   Here are three strategies to keep moving forward and avoid the trap of constantly beginning again: 1. Celebrate Small Wins: Instead of focusing solely on the end goal, acknowledge and celebrate the small victories along the way. As I often say, "Progress, no matter how small, is still progress." Whether it's choosing a salad over fast food or squeezing in a quick workout, every positive choice counts. By recognizing and appreciating these incremental achievements, you can stay motivated and continue making strides toward your ultimate objective. 2. Embrace Consistency Over Perfection: It's essential to prioritize consistency in your efforts rather than striving for perfection. I believe that "Consistency beats perfection every time." Establishing sustainable habits, even if they're not flawless, is key to long-term success. Remember, it's better to consistently eat well and exercise moderately than to sporadically dive into extreme routines that are unsustainable. By consistently making healthier choices, you'll build momentum and avoid the cycle of constantly starting over. 3. Reflect and Adjust: Regularly assess your progress and adjust your approach as needed. Reflecting on what's working and what's not can help you course-correct and stay on track. My motto is, "Reflection is the compass that points you in the right direction." If certain strategies haven't yielded the desired results, don't be afraid to pivot and try new tactics. Learning from setbacks and adapting your plan accordingly is a powerful way to break the cycle of starting over and achieving lasting lifestyle changes. It's understandable to feel worn out by the prospect of repeatedly beginning anew on your journey to a healthier lifestyle. However, by celebrating small wins, prioritizing consistency over perfection, and being willing to reflect and adjust, you can escape the cycle of starting over and move closer to your wellness goals one step at a time. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, it's not about perfection; it's about progress. So, are you ready to break free from the endless loop of starting over and commit to sustained growth and improvement? The power to change lies within you. "Be present. Be incredible.

My motto is, "Reflection is the compass that points you in the right direction." If certain strategies haven't yielded the desired results, don't be afraid to pivot and try new tactics. Learning from setbacks and adapting your plan accordingly is a powerful way to break the cycle of starting over and achieving lasting lifestyle changes. It's understandable to feel worn out by the prospect of repeatedly beginning anew on your journey to a healthier lifestyle. However, by celebrating small wins, prioritizing consistency over perfection, and being willing to reflect and adjust, you can escape the cycle of starting over and move closer to your wellness goals one step at a time. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, it's not about perfection; it's about progress. So, are you ready to break free from the endless loop of starting over and commit to sustained growth and improvement? The power to change lies within you. "Be present. Be incredible.

But what happens next? After getting to the destination, there are no plans for the next steps. At some point, you have to be willing to go back to the drawing board. Who would have thought? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Dreams are not meant to have to go back to the beginning. But at every finish line, there is a starting point. Unfortunately, many people get stuck in reaching their dreams, because they are caught in what happens next.  🌟Congratulations, you've reached your goal! 🌟 The sense of accomplishment washes over you, but then a wave of uncertainty hits - what happens next? While achieving your dreams is a major milestone, it's crucial to have a plan for the next steps. It's not unusual for many individuals to find themselves stuck at this juncture, unsure of how to move forward. So, what happens next? The K.I.S.S. ~ Navigate the next steps!   Here are three key strategies to help you navigate the post-success phase and chart a course for further growth: 1. Reflect and Reassess After reaching a goal, take some time to reflect on your journey. Consider what went well, what challenges you faced, and what you learned along the way. This introspection can provide valuable insights and pave the way for setting new objectives. "Self-reflection is the compass that guides us towards our next destination." ~ Kristianne Wargo Example: You've successfully completed a marathon. Take a moment to analyze your training routine, nutrition plan, and mental strategies. Identify areas for improvement and set new fitness targets to continue pushing your boundaries. 2. Set New Goals Rather than getting complacent after achieving one milestone, use it as a springboard to set new, captivating goals. Having a clear vision of what you want to accomplish next can reignite your passion and drive. "Goals are not just a destination but a journey towards continuous growth. By setting your goals, you are setting your rhythm." ~ Kristianne Wargo Example: You've published your first book. Now, aim to write a series or explore a different genre. Setting specific objectives, like completing a certain number of chapters per month, can keep you focused and motivated. 3. Seek Guidance and Support Don't be afraid to reach out for help when navigating uncharted territories. Surround yourself with mentors, peers, or coaches who can provide valuable advice and support. Collaboration and feedback from others can offer fresh perspectives and propel you towards new opportunities. "In seeking guidance, you show strength, not weakness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Example: You've expanded your small business successfully. Connect with industry experts or join networking events to gather insights on scaling up operations. Learning from experienced entrepreneurs can help you avoid pitfalls and accelerate your business growth. Think "Shark Tank." Reaching a goal is just the beginning of a new chapter in your journey. By reflecting on your achievements, setting ambitious goals, and seeking support, you can gracefully transition to the next phase of success.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present.

As I have loved you, so you must love one another." But what does it really mean to embody this divine love in our relationships with others? How can we love one another authentically and wholeheartedly, mirroring the boundless love that God has bestowed upon us? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    At the heart of this commandment lies the cornerstone of compassion, empathy, and kindness. To love one another as God loves us means to embrace one another's flaws and imperfections with grace and understanding, just as the Lord extends His mercy to each and every one of us. In 1 John 4:7-8, we are reminded that "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love." This profound truth underscores the interconnectedness between our capacity to love one another and our spiritual relationship with God. The K.I.S.S. ~ As I have loved you!   Yet, amidst our efforts to extend love outwardly to others, we often neglect an essential aspect of this commandment: the importance of self-love. In Mark 12:31, Jesus instructs us to "Love your neighbor as yourself." This suggests that loving others is intricately linked to loving ourselves, recognizing our inherent worthiness, and embracing our own humanity with compassion. It is crucial to remember that self-love is not synonymous with selfishness or narcissism but rather a profound acceptance of ourselves as beloved children of God. In Psalm 139:14, we are reminded, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Embracing this divine truth enables us to love others from a place of wholeness and authenticity, nurturing relationships rooted in mutual respect and understanding. As we navigate the complexities of human relationships, let us heed the words of Romans 12:10: "Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves." By cultivating a spirit of love and humility in our interactions with others, we bear witness to the transformative power of God's love working through us. May we seek to embody the essence of God's love in our daily lives, extending grace, forgiveness, and compassion to all those we encounter. Let us embrace the profound truth that loving one another as God loves us begins with a deep and abiding love for ourselves, fostering a ripple effect of kindness and unity in our communities. Embrace God's love within your heart, and let it illuminate the world around you with its radiant beauty. You are worthy. You are loved. And in the words of 1 Corinthians 13:13, "And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love."

As I have loved you, so you must love one another." But what does it really mean to embody this divine love in our relationships with others? How can we love one another authentically and wholeheartedly, mirroring the boundless love that God has bestowed upon us? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    At the heart of this commandment lies the cornerstone of compassion, empathy, and kindness. To love one another as God loves us means to embrace one another's flaws and imperfections with grace and understanding, just as the Lord extends His mercy to each and every one of us. In 1 John 4:7-8, we are reminded that "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love." This profound truth underscores the interconnectedness between our capacity to love one another and our spiritual relationship with God. The K.I.S.S. ~ As I have loved you!   Yet, amidst our efforts to extend love outwardly to others, we often neglect an essential aspect of this commandment: the importance of self-love. In Mark 12:31, Jesus instructs us to "Love your neighbor as yourself." This suggests that loving others is intricately linked to loving ourselves, recognizing our inherent worthiness, and embracing our own humanity with compassion. It is crucial to remember that self-love is not synonymous with selfishness or narcissism but rather a profound acceptance of ourselves as beloved children of God. In Psalm 139:14, we are reminded, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Embracing this divine truth enables us to love others from a place of wholeness and authenticity, nurturing relationships rooted in mutual respect and understanding. As we navigate the complexities of human relationships, let us heed the words of Romans 12:10: "Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves." By cultivating a spirit of love and humility in our interactions with others, we bear witness to the transformative power of God's love working through us. May we seek to embody the essence of God's love in our daily lives, extending grace, forgiveness, and compassion to all those we encounter. Let us embrace the profound truth that loving one another as God loves us begins with a deep and abiding love for ourselves, fostering a ripple effect of kindness and unity in our communities. Embrace God's love within your heart, and let it illuminate the world around you with its radiant beauty. You are worthy. You are loved. And in the words of 1 Corinthians 13:13, "And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love." May you walk in the light of God's love, sharing its boundless grace with all whom you meet. "Be present. Be incredible.

In marriage, there are times when you need to cut to the chase and say it like it is. In the world of marriage, communication is key. Knowing when to speak up and when to hold back can make a world of difference in a successful relationship. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    With divorce rates showing that around 40-50% of marriages end in divorce, mastering the art of communication is more important than ever. REFLECTION: How do you communicate with your spouse when arguments are on the horizon? If you want to have an incredible marriage, you must have strong communication skills. The K.I.S.S. ~ Enhance your communication skills!   Here are three tips for spouses to navigate communication effectively: 1. Timing is Everything: Knowing when to share your thoughts and feelings is crucial. If a hot topic arises and emotions are running high, it might be better to wait until both parties have cooled down before discussing it further. This allows for a more productive and constructive conversation rather than a heated argument. "Timing is everything in communication. It's important to choose the right moment to address important issues to ensure they are received well." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Choose Your Battles Wisely: Not every disagreement needs to turn into a full-blown argument. Sometimes it's better to let minor issues go in order to maintain peace in the relationship. Save your energy for the things that truly matter and can impact the health of your marriage in the long run. "Pick your battles wisely. Not every disagreement needs to be turned into a fight. Focus on what truly matters to you both." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Practice Active Listening: You cannot communicate or say you are communicating if you do not listen! Communication is a two-way street. It's important not only to express your own thoughts and feelings but also to listen actively to your partner. Show empathy, ask questions, and truly try to understand where they're coming from. This can help prevent misunderstandings and show that you value their perspective in the relationship. "Active listening is key in every conversation. Make sure to give your partner the space to express themselves fully and listen with an open mind." ~ Kristianne Wargo Research shows that couples who communicate effectively are more likely to have successful and long-lasting relationships. By implementing these strategies, you can navigate disagreements and strengthen their bond through open and honest communication. Remember, in the journey of marriage, cutting to the chase with kindness and respect can lead to deeper understanding and connection between partners. So, don't hold back - speak your truth, but do it with love. "Communication is not just about talking; it's about understanding and being understood in the most authentic way possible. Communicating is holding the heart while listening to their words." ~ Kristianne Wargo So what do you think? Time to cut to the chase? "Be present. Be incredible.

However, it is crucial to remember that instilling a sense of security during difficult times can help children develop resilience. It can also help them develop coping mechanisms to face adversity in the future. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life is not ever going to be easy. You might be able to find times of simplicity, but that doesn't make it easy. Hard decisions will be made. No will be said. Yes will be wished. And then there are the tears. Don't you just want to be a parent? It is the best thing in the world, but oh so challenging. The K.I.S.S. ~ Set the foundation with love!   Early Childhood (Ages 0-5) 1. Create a Safe Haven: For young children, feeling safe and secure is paramount. Establishing routines, such as consistent bedtime rituals and mealtime schedules, can provide a sense of predictability and stability. Additionally, offering physical affection and validation of emotions can reassure children that they are loved and supported. - Kristianne Wargo: "In the chaos of life, consistency is key. Children thrive when they know what to expect and can rely on your unwavering love." 2. Encourage Emotional Expression: Young children may not have the vocabulary to articulate their feelings verbally. Encourage the use of art, play, or storytelling as tools for self-expression. Creating a safe space for them to share their emotions without judgment fosters trust and emotional resilience. 3. Model Resilience: Children learn by example, and witnessing how parents navigate challenges can shape their own resilience. Demonstrate problem-solving skills, adaptability, and positive coping strategies when facing difficulties. Showcasing a growth mindset can empower children to view setbacks as opportunities for growth. - Kristianne Wargo: "Life is full of ups and downs. It's not about avoiding challenges but about how you bounce back from them that matters." Childhood (Ages 6-12) 1. Open Communication: Encourage open discussions with your child about their fears, concerns, and challenges. Actively listen to their perspective and validate their feelings. By fostering a safe environment for dialogue, you help build trust and strengthen your bond. 2. Empower Problem-Solving Skills: Teach your child problem-solving techniques and encourage autonomy in decision-making. By empowering them to tackle challenges independently, you boost their confidence and resilience. Celebrate their successes and provide guidance if they face setbacks. - Kristianne Wargo: "Empower your child to believe in their ability to overcome obstacles. Building problem-solving skills early on prepares them for life's complexities." 3. Establish Support Networks: Nurture relationships with teachers, mentors, and peers to create a supportive community for your child. Encourage participation in extracurricular activities that foster social connections and a sense of belonging. Knowing they have a network of caring individuals reinforces their sense of security. Adolescence (Ages 13-18) 1. Encourage Independence: Adolescents crave independence and autonomy. Allow them to make decisions and take on responsibilities gradually. By respecting their growing autonomy, you show trust in their judgment and capabilities, enhancing their self-esteem. - Kristianne Wargo: "Empower your teenager with choices that respect their maturity level. Guiding them while granting independence fosters a sense of security and self-assurance." 2. Promote Self-Care: Adolescence is a period of significant personal growth and potential stress. Encourage healthy habits such as regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, and sufficient sleep. Teach them coping mechanisms like mindfulness and relaxation techniques to manage stress effectively. 3. Discuss Future Plans: Engage in conversations about their future aspirations and offer guidance in setting realistic goals. Support their academic pursuits and career interests while acknowledging their individual passions. By aligning their future plans with their values, you help them feel grounded and secure in their journey. - Kristianne Wargo: "Navigating adolescence can be overwhelming for teens. By discussing their future plans and aspirations, you provide them with a roadmap that instills confidence and security." Supporting Adult Children (Ages 18+) 1. Respect Their Autonomy: Acknowledge and respect your adult child's independence and decision-making abilities. Avoid imposing your opinions or hovering over their choices. Trust that they have the skills and judgment to navigate their own paths, while offering guidance when requested. - Kristianne Wargo: "Empower your adult child by respecting their independence and autonomy. Letting go doesn't mean disconnecting; it means trusting their capabilities and choices." 2. Encourage Open Communication: Maintain open lines of communication with your adult child, fostering a relationship built on mutual respect and understanding. Create a safe space for them to share their experiences, challenges, and achievements without fear of judgment. Listen actively and offer support where needed. - Kristianne Wargo: "Communication remains vital, even as children become adults. Encourage open dialogue to strengthen your bond and provide a sense of security." 3. Offer Emotional Support: Adult children may face various life transitions, such as career changes, relationships, or parenthood. Be a supportive presence during their triumphs and setbacks, offering encouragement, empathy, and practical guidance. Let them know you are there as a source of unwavering love and support. - Kristianne Wargo: "Providing emotional support to adult children reassures them of your continued presence and care, bolstering their confidence and sense of security." 4. Respect Their Boundaries: Recognize and respect your adult child's boundaries and personal space. Avoid crossing emotional or physical boundaries without their consent, and be mindful of their need for independence. Demonstrating respect for their autonomy reinforces their sense of security in the relationship. - Kristianne Wargo: "Respecting boundaries shows your adult child that you value their autonomy and trust them to navigate their lives, fostering a sense of security and mutual respect." Tailoring your approach to the specific needs and developmental stages of your child ensures that they feel secure, supported, and empowered to navigate life's challenges with resilience and confidence. Remember, your unwavering love and guidance are the pillars of strength that create a foundation of security for your child at every age. "Be present. Be incredible.

However, it is crucial to remember that instilling a sense of security during difficult times can help children develop resilience. It can also help them develop coping mechanisms to face adversity in the future. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life is not ever going to be easy. You might be able to find times of simplicity, but that doesn't make it easy. Hard decisions will be made. No will be said. Yes will be wished. And then there are the tears. Don't you just want to be a parent? It is the best thing in the world, but oh so challenging. The K.I.S.S. ~ Set the foundation with love!   Early Childhood (Ages 0-5) 1. Create a Safe Haven: For young children, feeling safe and secure is paramount. Establishing routines, such as consistent bedtime rituals and mealtime schedules, can provide a sense of predictability and stability. Additionally, offering physical affection and validation of emotions can reassure children that they are loved and supported. - Kristianne Wargo: "In the chaos of life, consistency is key. Children thrive when they know what to expect and can rely on your unwavering love." 2. Encourage Emotional Expression: Young children may not have the vocabulary to articulate their feelings verbally. Encourage the use of art, play, or storytelling as tools for self-expression. Creating a safe space for them to share their emotions without judgment fosters trust and emotional resilience. 3. Model Resilience: Children learn by example, and witnessing how parents navigate challenges can shape their own resilience. Demonstrate problem-solving skills, adaptability, and positive coping strategies when facing difficulties. Showcasing a growth mindset can empower children to view setbacks as opportunities for growth. - Kristianne Wargo: "Life is full of ups and downs. It's not about avoiding challenges but about how you bounce back from them that matters." Childhood (Ages 6-12) 1. Open Communication: Encourage open discussions with your child about their fears, concerns, and challenges. Actively listen to their perspective and validate their feelings. By fostering a safe environment for dialogue, you help build trust and strengthen your bond. 2. Empower Problem-Solving Skills: Teach your child problem-solving techniques and encourage autonomy in decision-making. By empowering them to tackle challenges independently, you boost their confidence and resilience. Celebrate their successes and provide guidance if they face setbacks. - Kristianne Wargo: "Empower your child to believe in their ability to overcome obstacles. Building problem-solving skills early on prepares them for life's complexities." 3. Establish Support Networks: Nurture relationships with teachers, mentors, and peers to create a supportive community for your child. Encourage participation in extracurricular activities that foster social connections and a sense of belonging. Knowing they have a network of caring individuals reinforces their sense of security. Adolescence (Ages 13-18) 1. Encourage Independence: Adolescents crave independence and autonomy. Allow them to make decisions and take on responsibilities gradually. By respecting their growing autonomy, you show trust in their judgment and capabilities, enhancing their self-esteem. - Kristianne Wargo: "Empower your teenager with choices that respect their maturity level. Guiding them while granting independence fosters a sense of security and self-assurance." 2. Promote Self-Care: Adolescence is a period of significant personal growth and potential stress. Encourage healthy habits such as regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, and sufficient...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1260</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,dads,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,purpose,relationships,routines,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/37b32f3a59b83926adf5d0bbd452deb2.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3553 Say Yes!</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3553-say-yes--62393408</link><description><![CDATA[There is no way to keep up with everything in life and think that you can when all that does happen is the unexpected. Imagine how it would feel to go beyond what you can see. Say 'Yes', and see what happens. You don't have to know everything, but you do have to be willing to take a chance when the opportunity arises. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In a world that moves at lightning speed, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the constant barrage of choices and challenges. By embracing the unexpected and being open to new possibilities, we can unlock doors we never knew existed. Every day presents us with opportunities - some big, some small - and it's up to us to seize them. Saying "Yes" is not just about blindly accepting everything that comes our way; it's about having the courage to step outside our comfort zone and explore uncharted territories. Saying "Yes" is saying yes to growth, yes to learning, and yes to a life filled with endless possibilities. The K.I.S.S. ~ Say Yes!   But what about those moments when fear and doubt start to cloud our judgment? It's normal to feel hesitant when faced with uncertainty, but it's how we choose to respond that truly matters. By managing your thoughts and redirecting your focus, you can push past your insecurities and take bold steps toward your dreams. Here's the thing...we are so used to criticizing our own gifts and talents, it's no wonder that fear and doubt interject themselves into our every day. You gotta be BOLD and get ready to be TOLD--Say YES!! It's time to embrace your own superpower. By cultivating a mindset of positivity and resilience, we can transform challenges into opportunities and setbacks into stepping stones toward success. John Maxwell said, "I am only going to teach what I live." What are you teaching the people in your life, but you're not willing to live by the same rules of life.  Think about it! So, the next time life presents you with a choice, remember the power of "Yes." Embrace the unknown, conquer your fears, and watch as new doors open before you. Say "Yes" to life, and see where the journey takes you. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

But the reality is that true transformation often happens in the quiet moments. Those quiet moments of self-reflection and personal commitment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    When it comes to healthy living, finding the balance between public accountability and private dedication is key to long-term success. "Healthy living is not just about what others see, but how you behave when no one is watching." ~ Kristianne Wargo The habits we cultivate in private, away from the eyes of social scrutiny, ultimately shape our overall well-being. Think about what you do in private vs. what you do in public. How are they the same, or maybe how different are they? Are you careful what you eat so people think you are really an active health nut? Or when you close your doors, do you run for the ice cream and potato chips? What does your every day look like now? If you want to live a healthy lifestyle, you get to thrive behind closed doors. The K.I.S.S. ~ Thrive behind closed doors!   Here are three essential strategies to thrive behind closed doors and build a strong foundation for a healthier lifestyle: 1. Set Realistic Goals: Establishing clear, achievable goals is crucial when it comes to maintaining healthy habits in private. I can't emphasize enough the importance of setting intentions that resonate with your personal values and motivations. Whether it's committing to regular exercise, mindful eating, or stress management techniques, having specific goals helps to guide your actions when no one else is around to witness them. What goal do you need to set? 2. Create a Supportive Environment: Building a supportive environment within your home and personal space is essential for sustaining healthy habits behind closed doors. Surround yourself with positive influences, such as nutritious foods, fitness equipment, and motivational reminders. "Your environment plays a significant role in shaping your behaviors. Make sure your surroundings encourage and support your wellness journey."~ Kristianne Wargo What do you need to dust off and bring out into the open? 3. Practice Self-Compassion: Above all, practicing self-compassion is key to thriving behind closed doors. I must stress the importance of being kind to yourself, especially during moments of struggle or setbacks. Cultivate a mindset of self-acceptance and forgiveness, giving yourself that grace, realizing that progress is a journey with ups and downs. Remember, healthy living is not about perfection but about consistency and self-care. What kind and compassionate phrase can you repeat to yourself today? Research shows that individuals who prioritize their well-being in private are more likely to experience long-lasting results compared to those solely focused on external validation. According to a study published in the Journal of Behavioral Medicine, self-regulation and intrinsic motivation play vital roles in sustaining healthy behaviors over time. It is important to cultivate a strong inner foundation for healthy living behind closed doors. By setting realistic goals, creating a supportive environment, and practicing self-compassion, you can achieve sustainable wellness outcomes even when no one is watching. Remember, your personal commitment to health is what truly matters, both on display and behind closed doors. "Be present. Be incredible.

According to a study published in the Journal of Behavioral Medicine, self-regulation and intrinsic motivation play vital roles in sustaining healthy behaviors over time. It is important to cultivate a strong inner foundation for healthy living behind closed doors. By setting realistic goals, creating a supportive environment, and practicing self-compassion, you can achieve sustainable wellness outcomes even when no one is watching. Remember, your personal commitment to health is what truly matters, both on display and behind closed doors. "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if what you need requires you to be a bear, do it scared? Would you be willing? In the wild, bears are revered for their strength, resilience, and fearlessness.

Being a bear means tapping into your inner reservoir of courage and determination, even when every fiber of your being is screaming at you to run in the opposite direction. It means standing tall in the face of adversity, knowing that you have the strength and resilience to overcome whatever obstacles life throws your way. So, the next time you find yourself hesitating to take that leap of faith, remember the bear. Be bold, be fearless, and most importantly, be willing to do it scared.    Be A Bear, Do It Scared! (by Kristianne Wargo) In the shadows where the brave ones tread, A mighty bear with courage led. Through the forest, through the night, Fearless heart, eyes burning bright.   "Do it scared," the whispers say, Embrace the challenge, come what may. For strength lies deep within your soul, Emboldened by your fears, you'll reach the goal.   Be a bear, stand tall and strong, Facing fears, where you belong. Roar with might, against the tide, Embrace the fear, let your spirit guide.   In the darkness, find your light, Be a bear, fearless in your fight. With trembling hands and beating heart, You'll find the courage to make a start.   So heed the call, do it scared, Embrace your fears, be unimpaired. For in your heart, the bear resides, Courageous spirit, never hides.   Embrace the wild within your core, Be a bear, forever more. Roar with power, face the dare, For in your fear, you'll find you're rare.   Be a bear, do it scared, Embrace the challenge, be prepared. For in your bravery, you'll find the key, To unlock the greatness that's meant to be. "Be present. Be incredible.

Why can't You answer my prayer the way I ask? Trusting God is hard sometimes; but it remains the greatest blessing here on earth. Where have you found yourself talking with God? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Begging for what He hasn't given you or thanking Him for what He has given you? Life can leave us perplexed living in a swirling attitude of entitlement that we deserve something different than what we've got. Lord, why don't You answer the way I want? Why don't You hear me the first time? As a mom, I can understand why God doesn't hear us. Because the way we want to be heard is not always what's best. Yet, we wrestle with the idea that His answers are better than ours. How can you trust God when He doesn't answer your prayers the way you want? The K.I.S.S. ~ Trusting God is hard sometimes!   In the quiet moments of our lives, when we find ourselves alone with our thoughts, the hope is that we find the guidance, comfort, and understanding that we specifically want. We pray, we plead, we question. Why does it seem like our prayers go unanswered? Why doesn't God respond in the way we hope He would? We believe that we deserve a different path, a better outcome. In the corner of the shower, our tears release the hurt and pain in our hearts out to God, asking for specific answers, yearning for solutions that align with our desires. But what if His silence is a response in itself? Perhaps His plan for us is beyond what our limited vision can comprehend. As a mother, I've come to realize that sometimes not giving my children what they want is the perfect act of love. I see the bigger picture, the long-term implications, the greater good. Could this be the same for our Heavenly Father? Could His seeming silence be a way of gently guiding you toward a path that leads to your ultimate fulfillment and purpose? Proverbs 3:5-6 ~ "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." This verse serves as a reminder that our own comprehension is limited, but God's wisdom knows no bounds. By surrendering ourselves to His will, we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities that we could never have imagined. Trusting God is a journey, not a destination. It requires faith, patience, and a willingness to let go of our preconceived notions of what is best for us. It's called surrender! And that surrender involves a deep-seated belief that God's plan for you is far greater than anything you could dream of. So, in those moments of doubt and confusion, remember to listen, to discern, and to trust that God has your best interests at heart. Don't lose what God has put right in front of you! Stay entangled in His will and leave yours at the door. Find the heavenly comfort right here and right now in the knowledge that even when trusting God is hard, it is ultimately the greatest blessing you'll ever receive here on earth. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Trusting God is hard sometimes; but it remains the greatest blessing here on earth. Where have you found yourself talking with God? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Begging for what He hasn't given you or thanking Him for what He has given you? Life can leave us perplexed living in a swirling attitude of entitlement that we deserve something different than what we've got. Lord, why don't You answer the way I want? Why don't You hear me the first time? As a mom, I can understand why God doesn't hear us. Because the way we want to be heard is not always what's best. Yet, we wrestle with the idea that His answers are better than ours. How can you trust God when He doesn't answer your prayers the way you want? The K.I.S.S. ~ Trusting God is hard sometimes!   In the quiet moments of our lives, when we find ourselves alone with our thoughts, the hope is that we find the guidance, comfort, and understanding that we specifically want. We pray, we plead, we question. Why does it seem like our prayers go unanswered? Why doesn't God respond in the way we hope He would? We believe that we deserve a different path, a better outcome. In the corner of the shower, our tears release the hurt and pain in our hearts out to God, asking for specific answers, yearning for solutions that align with our desires. But what if His silence is a response in itself? Perhaps His plan for us is beyond what our limited vision can comprehend. As a mother, I've come to realize that sometimes not giving my children what they want is the perfect act of love. I see the bigger picture, the long-term implications, the greater good. Could this be the same for our Heavenly Father? Could His seeming silence be a way of gently guiding you toward a path that leads to your ultimate fulfillment and purpose? Proverbs 3:5-6 ~ "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." This verse serves as a reminder that our own comprehension is limited, but God's wisdom knows no bounds. By surrendering ourselves to His will, we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities that we could never have imagined. Trusting God is a journey, not a destination. It requires faith, patience, and a willingness to let go of our preconceived notions of what is best for us. It's called surrender! And that surrender involves a deep-seated belief that God's plan for you is far greater than anything you could dream of. So, in those moments of doubt and confusion, remember to listen, to discern, and to trust that God has your best interests at heart. Don't lose what God has put right in front of you! Stay entangled in His will and leave yours at the door. Find the heavenly comfort right here and right now in the knowledge that even when trusting God is hard, it is ultimately the greatest blessing you'll ever receive here on earth. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But when assumptions lead the heart, that's one of the first breaks that occurs. If you want your marriage to last, how much do you really love your spouse? And does your spouse know it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Remember, assumptions can wreck your heart, destroying precious moments and memories leaving only a pile of dust. No marriage should suffer with dust bunnies, unless it's the ones you swept under the bed. Marriage takes work, and more work than one thinks. Life is too precious, and so is your marriage. So it's about time you really love your spouse the way they deserve. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love the way your spouse deserves!   1. SHARE more than you TATTLE Communication is the bedrock of any healthy relationship. Take the time to express your feelings and thoughts to your spouse, ensuring that they know how much you value and care for them. "Being open about your feelings and thoughts allows your spouse to truly understand the depth of your love." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. SHOW more than you ASK It's easy to take our spouses for granted in the hustle and bustle of daily life. Make a conscious effort to show appreciation for even the smallest gestures. A simple 'thank you' or a surprise gesture can go a long way in making your spouse feel loved and valued. "Appreciation is the language of love that your spouse needs to hear daily." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. SPEND more than you SAVE In today's fast-paced world, quality time with our loved ones is often overlooked. Set aside dedicated time each day to connect with your spouse, whether it's sharing a meal, going for a walk, or simply sitting together and talking. Quality time strengthens the bond between partners and reinforces the foundation of love in a marriage. "Investing quality time in your marriage is like watering a plant – it thrives and grows with care and attention." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, loving your spouse is a continuous journey that requires effort and dedication.

There is so much to teach in a few years that lasts a lifetime. Your children leave footprints on your heart. It's the indelible marks that shape who we are as parents. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From the moment they come into our lives, they begin teaching us lessons that we never knew we needed to learn. Like I said, "Children leave a mark on your heart and a hole in your mind." They leave that impression, right, on the heart, but how we come around them and support them requires more brain power than running the International Space Center. However, as we navigate the journey of parenthood, it's essential to strike a balance between being the parent our child needs and loving them right where they're at. This challenge is real. And it's not like we only have to deal with it once in a season, like Hurricane Helene or Milton. As I'm sure you're well aware, kid's hurricanes come daily. But at the same time, your heart screams out to not "punish" or "discipline" them. Yet, what does your child really need? What if you could write your younger child-self a letter, what would tell yourself? <ul> <li>Hugs all the time. </li> <li>Consistency with commitment.</li> <li>Boundaries that are enforced.</li> <li>Less digital and more physical.</li> <li>Your presence is required.</li> </ul> So much of our lives are forced into what we should or should not do based on public opinion. What about what is right for your child? What if you led with loving the way your child needs to be loved? The K.I.S.S. ~ Love the way your child needs!   And that means you have to know your child and know what is required for their success, not based on how you feel or what others say about how you parent or how you are as a parent. Your kiddos come first! Why would you settle for what doesn't matter? Your children, your family matter. You've got to find that balance between your head and your heart. How can you achieve this delicate equilibrium, since we're going all science today? 1. Embrace Imperfection: Parenting is a journey filled with twists, turns, and unexpected detours. Instead of striving for unattainable perfection, allow yourself to be imperfect. "No matter what you do, your children leave footprints on your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo By accepting your flaws and mistakes, you set an invaluable example for your child – one that emphasizes resilience, self-compassion, and the beauty of imperfection. 2. Prioritize Self-Care: In the whirlwind of parenting responsibilities, it's easy to overlook our own needs. Yet, nurturing your mind, body, and spirit is crucial for maintaining a strong and loving connection with your child. "How can you be the parent your child needs without losing your heart in the process?" ~ Kristianne Wargo Whether it's carving out moments of solitude, engaging in activities that bring you joy, or seeking support from loved ones, prioritizing self-care enables you to show up for your child with a full and open heart. Yep--your heart is going to get stepped on. But the indelible mark you leave with them, will be greater than the initial shock. 3. Cultivate Connection Through Communication: Effective communication forms the bedrock of any relationship, including the one between parent and child. Take the time to truly listen to your child's thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment or interruption. "Remember, there is so much to teach in only a few years to last a lifetime." ~ Kristianne Wargo By fostering open and honest communication, you create a safe space where your child feels seen, heard, and valued – strengthening the bond between you and leaving space for those timeless footprints on your heart. Parenthood is a dance between guiding, nurturing, and learning from our children. It's truly about wanting to be the parents our children need while cherishing the love that they so richly deserve. "No matter what you do, your children leave footprints on your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace those footprints, cherish the journey, and let unconditional love be the light that leaves an indelible mark on their hearts.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From the moment they come into our lives, they begin teaching us lessons that we never knew we needed to learn. Like I said, "Children leave a mark on your heart and a hole in your mind." They leave that impression, right, on the heart, but how we come around them and support them requires more brain power than running the International Space Center. However, as we navigate the journey of parenthood, it's essential to strike a balance between being the parent our child needs and loving them right where they're at. This challenge is real. And it's not like we only have to deal with it once in a season, like Hurricane Helene or Milton. As I'm sure you're well aware, kid's hurricanes come daily. But at the same time, your heart screams out to not "punish" or "discipline" them. Yet, what does your child really need? What if you could write your younger child-self a letter, what would tell yourself? <ul> <li>Hugs all the time. </li> <li>Consistency with commitment.</li> <li>Boundaries that are enforced.</li> <li>Less digital and more physical.</li> <li>Your presence is required.</li> </ul> So much of our lives are forced into what we should or should not do based on public opinion. What about what is right for your child? What if you led with loving the way your child needs to be loved? The K.I.S.S. ~ Love the way your child needs!   And that means you have to know your child and know what is required for their success, not based on how you feel or what others say about how you parent or how you are as a parent. Your kiddos come first! Why would you settle for what doesn't matter? Your children, your family matter. You've got to find that balance between your head and your heart. How can you achieve this delicate equilibrium, since we're going all science today? 1. Embrace Imperfection: Parenting is a journey filled with twists, turns, and unexpected detours. Instead of striving for unattainable perfection, allow yourself to be imperfect. "No matter what you do, your children leave footprints on your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo By accepting your flaws and mistakes, you set an invaluable example for your child – one that emphasizes resilience, self-compassion, and the beauty of imperfection. 2. Prioritize Self-Care: In the whirlwind of parenting responsibilities, it's easy to overlook our own needs. Yet, nurturing your mind, body, and spirit is crucial for maintaining a strong and loving connection with your child. "How can you be the parent your child needs without losing your heart in the process?" ~ Kristianne Wargo Whether it's carving out moments of solitude, engaging in activities that bring you joy, or seeking support from loved ones, prioritizing self-care enables you to show up for your child with a full and open heart. Yep--your heart is going to get stepped on. But the indelible mark you leave with them, will be greater than the initial shock. 3. Cultivate Connection Through Communication: Effective communication forms the bedrock of any relationship, including the one between parent and child. Take the time to truly listen to your child's thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment or interruption. "Remember, there is so much to teach in only a few years to last a lifetime." ~ Kristianne Wargo By fostering open and honest communication, you create a safe space where your child feels seen, heard, and valued – strengthening the bond between you and leaving space for...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1452</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,dads,discipline,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,purpose,relationships,routines,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/4b13acf1fca9da3b78a694302f62b218.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3546 Permission Granted</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3546-permission-granted--62309872</link><description><![CDATA[Are you giving yourself the space to do what you want to do?

We miss the whole idea of looking at our lifestyle from a holistic point of view. What we think about we bring about. What we eat we become. What we drink, we hydrate or dilute. How we sleep affects our energy. It's no wonder that we are exhausted when it comes to healthy living because we are doing it all wrong.

We have to do what we know is best and cut out the "ease" of wants and stick to the "needs" of our bodies. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cut out the ease and stick to the needs!   1.

"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, success is not defined by the absence of obstacles but by the resilience shown in overcoming them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Never give up!   So, in these next few minutes, where are you thinking of giving up? Where are you considering throwing in the towel? Where are thinking of letting something go because you can't handle it anymore? <ul> <li>Marriage</li> <li>Career </li> <li>Dreams</li> <li>Finances</li> <li>Retirement</li> </ul> In life, we will face countless challenges and obstacles along the way. And when we are caught between a rock and a hard place, if we're honest, giving up might be the easiest way to let go. Who wants to carry worry for the rest of their life? (Listen to Episode 3543) When you are in the midst of the C.R.A.P. of life (challenge, rejections, adversities, or problems), you need to hold onto hope and know this is temporary! This, too, shall pass. You are capable of achieving greatness beyond your wildest dreams.  As you navigate the ups and downs of life, remember to stay true to who you are and who you are becoming. Stay grounded in your values and never lose sight of your dreams. Embrace the journey, stay positive, and most importantly, never give up. The strength, resilience, and determination within you are far greater than any obstacle that may come your way. "Life is a journey filled with twists and turns, but it is in the moments of adversity that we discover our true strength and resilience.

Instead of viewing challenges as roadblocks, see them as stepping stones toward your ultimate goals and aspirations. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, success is not defined by the absence of obstacles but by the resilience shown in overcoming them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Never give up!   So, in these next few minutes, where are you thinking of giving up? Where are you considering throwing in the towel? Where are thinking of letting something go because you can't handle it anymore? <ul> <li>Marriage</li> <li>Career </li> <li>Dreams</li> <li>Finances</li> <li>Retirement</li> </ul> In life, we will face countless challenges and obstacles along the way. And when we are caught between a rock and a hard place, if we're honest, giving up might be the easiest way to let go. Who wants to carry worry for the rest of their life? (Listen to Episode 3543) When you are in the midst of the C.R.A.P. of life (challenge, rejections, adversities, or problems), you need to hold onto hope and know this is temporary! This, too, shall pass. You are capable of achieving greatness beyond your wildest dreams.  As you navigate the ups and downs of life, remember to stay true to who you are and who you are becoming. Stay grounded in your values and never lose sight of your dreams. Embrace the journey, stay positive, and most importantly, never give up. The strength, resilience, and determination within you are far greater than any obstacle that may come your way. "Life is a journey filled with twists and turns, but it is in the moments of adversity that we discover our true strength and resilience. Embrace the CRAP of life, face them head-on, and never give up!" "Be present. Be incredible.

Life is still not what you expected. But how you choose to respond to life as it comes at you grants you peace, a freedom that gives you permission to smile even in the depths of struggles and troubles. Worry is a formidable foe that robs us of joy, peace, and the ability to fully embrace life's goodness. Living in a constant state of worry is like carrying an unnecessary burden that weighs us down. Living a life consumed by worry can have profound effects on our mental, emotional, and physical well-being, as well as on our relationships and overall quality of life.  1. Mental and Emotional Strain: - Constant rumination: Worrying individuals often find themselves caught in a cycle of overthinking and dwelling on worst-case scenarios, leading to heightened anxiety and stress. - Lack of peace: Worry can create a persistent sense of unease and restlessness, making it difficult to experience moments of tranquility and contentment. - Negative thought patterns: Worry tends to fuel negative thought patterns, fostering a pessimistic outlook on life and undermining one's self-confidence. 2. Physical Symptoms: - Insomnia and fatigue: Excessive worry can disrupt sleep patterns, leading to insomnia and fatigue, which further exacerbate stress levels and impact overall energy levels. - Muscle tension and headaches: Chronic worry can manifest physically through muscle tension, headaches, and other somatic symptoms, as the body responds to prolonged stress. - Digestive issues: The gut-brain connection means that worry can contribute to digestive issues such as stomach pain, diarrhea, or acid reflux, as stress impacts the gastrointestinal system. 3. Impaired Decision-Making: - Analysis paralysis: Worry can paralyze individuals from making decisions, as they become overly focused on potential risks and outcomes, leading to indecision and missed opportunities. - Overly cautious behavior: Worrying individuals may adopt a hyper-vigilant approach in an attempt to mitigate perceived threats, which can result in avoidance behavior and limit personal growth. 4. Strained Relationships: - Lack of presence: When consumed by worry, individuals may struggle to be fully present in their interactions, leading to strained relationships and feelings of disconnect with loved ones. - Need for reassurance: Constant reassurance-seeking behavior can strain relationships, as individuals rely on others to alleviate their worries rather than developing internal coping mechanisms. - Communication challenges: Worry can impact communication patterns, leading to misunderstandings, misinterpretations, and difficulty expressing thoughts and emotions clearly. 5. Social Isolation: - Withdrawal from activities: Worry can lead individuals to withdraw from social gatherings, hobbies, or experiences that might trigger anxiety, resulting in isolation and a sense of disconnection from the world. - Fear of judgment: Worrying individuals may avoid social interactions due to a fear of judgment or criticism, further reinforcing feelings of loneliness and isolation. - Limited growth opportunities: Social isolation resulting from worry can hinder personal growth, as it restricts exposure to new perspectives, experiences, and relationships that facilitate learning and development. Overall, living a life consumed by worry can manifest in various ways, impacting not only our mental and emotional well-being but also our physical health, decision-making abilities, relationships, and social connections. How does worry show up in your life? Recognizing the signs of excessive worry and implementing strategies to address and overcome it is vital in cultivating a life of peace, resilience, and fulfillment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Wipeout worry!   1. TRUST IN GOD'S PLAN Scripture: Proverbs 3:5-6 - "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." Worry often stems from a lack of trust in God's plan for our lives. By surrendering our fears and anxieties to Him, we can find comfort in knowing that He holds our future in His hands. Trusting in God's wisdom and timing allows us to release the need for control and embrace the peace that comes from knowing that He is in control. Real-Life Example: When faced with uncertainties about the future, instead of allowing worry to consume us, we can choose to trust in God's faithfulness. By seeking His guidance through prayer and meditating on His promises, we can find reassurance that He has a perfect plan for our lives. "Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows; it empties today of its strength." - Corrie ten Boom 2. PRACTICE GRATITUDE 1 Thessalonians 5:18 - "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." Gratitude is a powerful antidote to worry, as it shifts our focus from what we lack to the abundance of blessings that surround us. By cultivating a heart of thankfulness, we can find joy in the present moment and trust that God will provide for our needs. Real-Life Example: Keeping a gratitude journal and reflecting on the ways God has been faithful in the past can help us maintain a positive perspective, even in the face of challenges. By counting our blessings and acknowledging God's goodness, we can cultivate a spirit of contentment that diminishes worry. "Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained." - Arthur Somers Roche 3. SEEK SUPPORT &amp; COMMUNITY Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 - "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up." God designed us for community, knowing that we thrive in fellowship with others who can support and encourage us. When facing worries and struggles, seeking the companionship of fellow believers can provide strength and comfort. Real-Life Example: Engaging in a small group or seeking wise counsel from a mentor can offer perspective and guidance during times of uncertainty. Sharing our burdens with trusted friends who can offer prayer and support can lighten the load of worry and remind us that we are not alone. "Don't let worry rent space in your mind when it was meant to be filled with peace and joy." - Kristianne Wargo Wiping out worry requires a conscious effort to trust in God's plan, practice gratitude, and seek support from a loving community. By anchoring our hearts in faith, cultivating thankfulness, and embracing the strength of unity, we can overcome the grip of worry and step into the abundant life that God has promised us. Life is still not what you expected, but how you choose to respond to life as it comes at you grants you peace, a freedom that gives you permission to smile even in the depths of struggles and troubles. Wipeout worry and embrace the fullness of God's grace and love. "Be present. Be incredible.

The weight of our struggles can often make us feel as though we're carrying that burden alone, with very little support to lean on. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Luke 24:38 -- He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Do you really think God wants you to suffer? Be honest when you answer this. Your honesty will bring about your freedom. You don't want to hide things. You don't want to struggle in silence.  In times like these, it can be challenging to rely on our faith and trust that God is watching over us. A lot of times, we revert to our own vices to "deal" with the fear we're facing. But take heart, for you are not alone in your struggles. The Bible reminds us of God’s unwavering presence and promise to be by our side through thick and thin. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fear not!   In Isaiah 41:10, we are reminded, "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." These words serve as a powerful assurance that God is always there, ready to provide us with the strength and support we need to weather life's challenges. Psalm 23:4 ~ "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." God walks beside you through your darkest moments, offering you comfort and guidance along the way. "Fear may fill our world, but it does not need to fill your heart!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "God has not given us the spirit of fear." ~ 2 Timothy 1:7 It's important to remember that leaning on God doesn't mean we won't face difficulties or hardships. Instead, it means placing our trust in Him and knowing that regardless of our circumstances, God has already gone before us and has a plan for our lives. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed and alone in your struggles, take comfort in knowing that God is with you always. Lean on His strength, trust in His plan, and know that you are never truly alone. Fear not, for you are loved, protected, and guided by God, who will never leave you nor forsake you. As Max Lucado said, "The promise of Christ is simple: we can fear less tomorrow than we do today!" Oh, my friend, do life with God today! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The weight of our struggles can often make us feel as though we're carrying that burden alone, with very little support to lean on. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Luke 24:38 -- He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Do you really think God wants you to suffer? Be honest when you answer this. Your honesty will bring about your freedom. You don't want to hide things. You don't want to struggle in silence.  In times like these, it can be challenging to rely on our faith and trust that God is watching over us. A lot of times, we revert to our own vices to "deal" with the fear we're facing. But take heart, for you are not alone in your struggles. The Bible reminds us of God’s unwavering presence and promise to be by our side through thick and thin. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fear not!   In Isaiah 41:10, we are reminded, "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." These words serve as a powerful assurance that God is always there, ready to provide us with the strength and support we need to weather life's challenges. Psalm 23:4 ~ "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." God walks beside you through your darkest moments, offering you comfort and guidance along the way. "Fear may fill our world, but it does not need to fill your heart!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "God has not given us the spirit of fear." ~ 2 Timothy 1:7 It's important to remember that leaning on God doesn't mean we won't face difficulties or hardships. Instead, it means placing our trust in Him and knowing that regardless of our circumstances, God has already gone before us and has a plan for our lives. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed and alone in your struggles, take comfort in knowing that God is with you always. Lean on His strength, trust in His plan, and know that you are never truly alone. Fear not, for you are loved, protected, and guided by God, who will never leave you nor forsake you. As Max Lucado said, "The promise of Christ is simple: we can fear less tomorrow than we do today!" Oh, my friend, do life with God today! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

If couples understand how building a love that endures will strengthen their marriage, then they will be able to rise stronger together through tough times. Why is it that our relationships take tension to be strengthened? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Tension in relationships is like a crucible in which love is forged and tested. Without challenges, there can be no growth. Embracing tension can lead to deeper understanding and appreciation for one another. What can couples do to become better together with the tension so it can strengthen their marriage and not derail it? When faced with tension, couples can choose to communicate openly and honestly, practice empathy and understanding, and work as a team to overcome obstacles. By viewing challenges as opportunities for growth, couples can turn tension into a catalyst for building a love that endures. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn tension into a catalyst for building a love that endures!   Do you remember the science experiment with Mentos? You put the mentos into a Coca-cola bottle and watched it what? Erupt!!  Think about the tension as being the mentos. The more you put in, the greater the explosion. Which, as a science experiment, that's FABULOUS!! But as a relationship to stick, hmmmm-- not so much! So, what can you do to turn tension into a catalyst that builds up? 1. Communication and Transparency: As a couple, you can strengthen your bond by prioritizing open and honest communication, even when discussing difficult topics. For example, instead of avoiding a disagreement about household responsibilities, partners can openly express their feelings and viewpoints, actively listen to each other, and work together to find a mutually beneficial solution. Sharing fears, dreams, and vulnerabilities can deepen emotional intimacy and build trust in the relationship. "Love is not just about the good times; it's about weathering the storms together and emerging stronger as a couple." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Empathy and Understanding: Empathy plays a pivotal role in navigating tensions within a relationship. Couples can practice putting themselves in their partner's shoes to better understand their perspective, feelings, and needs. For instance, when one partner is stressed due to work pressures, the other can empathize by offering support, listening without judgment, and offering to help with tasks. By showing empathy and understanding, you can strengthen your emotional connection and foster a sense of unity amidst challenges. "In the midst of challenges, couples have a unique opportunity to deepen their connection and reinforce their commitment to each other." - Kristianne Wargo 3. Collaboration and Growth Mindset: Viewing tension as an opportunity for growth and collaboration can empower couples to overcome obstacles together. Rather than placing blame or becoming defensive during conflicts, couples can approach challenges with a growth mindset. For instance, if financial struggles arise, partners can work together to create a budget, set financial goals, and support each other in making necessary adjustments. By embracing challenges as a chance to learn, adapt, and grow as a team, couples can cultivate resilience and fortify their love for the long haul.  "True strength in a relationship comes from facing challenges head-on and choosing to grow together rather than apart." - Kristianne Wargo By incorporating these practices into their relationship, couples can navigate tensions, strengthen their connection, and build a love that endures through all of life's trials and triumphs. "Embrace the tension in your relationship as an opportunity for growth and connection; it's not a distraction, but an attraction that can strengthen your love beyond measure." - Kristianne Wargo "Be present.

But amidst the chaos, there lies a sense of serenity in the storm. A peaceful reassurance that being a parent is truly a gift, despite the challenges it brings. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yes, life is hard, especially if you're a parent. Anything and everything goes through your mind. And if you're a grandparent, hang on! That's all I've gotta say. But there are some things we can do to find the serenity in the storm. 1. Embrace Imperfection: Parenting is messy, unpredictable, and often imperfect - and that's okay. "In the midst of imperfection, lies the beauty of authenticity." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace the chaos and imperfections that come with parenthood, understanding that it's all part of the journey. Allow yourself to let go of the need for perfection and instead focus on being present and creating meaningful moments with your children. 2. Practice Self-Care: It's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of parenting and forget to take care of yourself. "Self-care is not selfish, it's self-preservation." ~ Kristianne Wargo Make time for yourself amidst the busyness of parenting, whether it's through meditation, exercise, a hobby you enjoy, or simply taking a moment to breathe. Prioritize your own well-being so you can better navigate the challenges that come your way. [Secret shared.] 3. Seek Support and Connection: Parenting can feel isolating at times, but you're not alone in this journey. Reach out to friends, family, or a support group to share your struggles, seek advice, and offer support to others. "Strength lies in our vulnerability when shared with others." ~ Kristianne Wargo Building a support network can help you feel more grounded, understood, and resilient in the face of parenting challenges. Now this is all great, and pretty much the norm. But let's take it to another level to tame the chaos. The K.I.S.S. ~ Tame the chaos!   4. Mindfulness Practices: Incorporate mindfulness techniques into your daily routine to help you stay present and grounded amidst the busyness of parenting. Meditation, deep breathing exercises, and mindful walks can all help reduce stress and bring a sense of calmness to your day. "In the chaos of life, find solace in the simplicity of the present moment." - Kristianne Wargo 5. Establish Boundaries: Setting boundaries and learning to say no when necessary can help prevent burnout and overwhelm. Prioritize tasks, delegate responsibilities when possible, and carve out time for yourself to recharge and reset. "Boundaries are not walls but bridges to your inner peace." - Kristianne Wargo 6. Gratitude Journaling/Reflection: Take a moment each day to reflect on the things you're grateful for, no matter how small. Keeping a gratitude journal can shift your focus towards the positive aspects of your life, helping you maintain a sense of perspective and appreciation even during challenging times. "Gratitude is the compass that points us towards the abundance in our lives." - Kristianne Wargo 7. Create Routine and Structure: Establishing a daily routine and structure can provide a sense of stability and predictability for both you and your children. Having consistent meal times, bedtime routines, and designated family time can help create a sense of calm and order in your household. "Routine nurtures the roots of stability, grounding us amidst life's storms." - Kristianne Wargo 8. Prioritize Quality Time: Make it a point to prioritize quality time with your children, engaging in activities that bring you joy and create lasting memories. Whether it's reading a book together, going for a walk, or simply having a heartfelt conversation, investing in these moments can help strengthen your bond and bring a sense of serenity to your family life. "Quality time is not measured by the clock, but by the depth of connection and love shared." - Kristianne Wargo 9. Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion during challenging moments. Remember that it's okay to make mistakes, to feel overwhelmed, and to seek help when needed. Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding that you would offer to a friend in a similar situation. "Self-compassion is the greatest gift you can give yourself during moments of struggle." - Kristianne Wargo By incorporating these strategies into your daily life, you can cultivate a sense of calm and balance amidst the chaos of parenting. Remember, finding moments of serenity in the storm is possible, and taking small steps toward self-care and mindfulness can make a big difference in your overall well-being. In the midst of the storm of parenthood, finding serenity is possible. By embracing imperfection, prioritizing self-compassion, and seeking support, you can navigate the chaos with grace and find moments of peace and joy along the way. "In the storm of life, embrace the rain. For in the driest seasons, your roots will remain." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

But amidst the chaos, there lies a sense of serenity in the storm. A peaceful reassurance that being a parent is truly a gift, despite the challenges it brings. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yes, life is hard, especially if you're a parent. Anything and everything goes through your mind. And if you're a grandparent, hang on! That's all I've gotta say. But there are some things we can do to find the serenity in the storm. 1. Embrace Imperfection: Parenting is messy, unpredictable, and often imperfect - and that's okay. "In the midst of imperfection, lies the beauty of authenticity." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace the chaos and imperfections that come with parenthood, understanding that it's all part of the journey. Allow yourself to let go of the need for perfection and instead focus on being present and creating meaningful moments with your children. 2. Practice Self-Care: It's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of parenting and forget to take care of yourself. "Self-care is not selfish, it's self-preservation." ~ Kristianne Wargo Make time for yourself amidst the busyness of parenting, whether it's through meditation, exercise, a hobby you enjoy, or simply taking a moment to breathe. Prioritize your own well-being so you can better navigate the challenges that come your way. [Secret shared.] 3. Seek Support and Connection: Parenting can feel isolating at times, but you're not alone in this journey. Reach out to friends, family, or a support group to share your struggles, seek advice, and offer support to others. "Strength lies in our vulnerability when shared with others." ~ Kristianne Wargo Building a support network can help you feel more grounded, understood, and resilient in the face of parenting challenges. Now this is all great, and pretty much the norm. But let's take it to another level to tame the chaos. The K.I.S.S. ~ Tame the chaos!   4. Mindfulness Practices: Incorporate mindfulness techniques into your daily routine to help you stay present and grounded amidst the busyness of parenting. Meditation, deep breathing exercises, and mindful walks can all help reduce stress and bring a sense of calmness to your day. "In the chaos of life, find solace in the simplicity of the present moment." - Kristianne Wargo 5. Establish Boundaries: Setting boundaries and learning to say no when necessary can help prevent burnout and overwhelm. Prioritize tasks, delegate responsibilities when possible, and carve out time for yourself to recharge and reset. "Boundaries are not walls but bridges to your inner peace." - Kristianne Wargo 6. Gratitude Journaling/Reflection: Take a moment each day to reflect on the things you're grateful for, no matter how small. Keeping a gratitude journal can shift your focus towards the positive aspects of your life, helping you maintain a sense of perspective and appreciation even during challenging times. "Gratitude is the compass that points us towards the abundance in our lives." - Kristianne Wargo 7. Create Routine and Structure: Establishing a daily routine and structure can provide a sense of stability and predictability for both you and your children. Having consistent meal times, bedtime routines, and designated family time can help create a sense of calm and order in your household. "Routine nurtures the roots of stability, grounding us amidst life's storms." - Kristianne Wargo 8. Prioritize Quality Time: Make it a point to prioritize quality time with your children, engaging in activities that bring you joy and create lasting memories.

But you matter! What you do counts, not for nothing, but for something.  In your field of dreams, seeds have been planted. Just imagine the possibilities that lie in the smallest of actions – be it a kind word, a moment of courage, or a step toward a long-held dream. These seeds, once sown with care, confidence, compassion, and consistency, have the extraordinary ability to grow into vibrant realities that stand out from the crowd. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stand out from the crowd!   In the journey of nurturing these seeds, challenges and setbacks are inevitable. A bad day, a moment of self-doubt, or a stumble along the way can all seem like insurmountable barriers. But remember, just as a seed needs sunlight and water to blossom, so do our dreams require perseverance and resilience to flourish. It's in these moments of adversity that our true strength and character are tested. It's when we must dig deep, find that wellspring of inner courage, and press onward. For it's during these times that the potential for growth and transformation is the greatest. So, ask yourself, how are you watering your days? Are you tending to your dreams with the dedication they deserve? Or are you letting them wither away in the shadows of doubt and fear? Remember, each day presents a new opportunity to breathe life into your aspirations, and to take one step closer to realizing your full greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Stand out from the crowd by embodying the qualities of care, confidence, compassion, and consistency in all that you do. Be the gardener of your own destiny, nurturing your dreams with unwavering belief and unwavering dedication. And watch as those seeds of greatness in the making blossom into a magnificent garden of accomplishments that set you apart as extraordinary in a world full of ordinary.

Because what we think, we believe, and that's all we can achieve. So if your health is lacking, why not eat your own excuses? Healthy living is not the easiest thing in the world to do. You've got magnificent processed food that tickles your tastebuds and crushes your confidence. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's the confidence to stay away from those tantalizing boxed foods. In the chaotic dance of modern life, it's all too easy to fall into the trap of making excuses. Excuses for not exercising, excuses for choosing fast food over a nutritious meal, excuses for skipping self-care. But what if we could shift our mindset and start devouring those excuses, turning them into fuel for a healthier, more vibrant life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Eat your excuses!   Let's explore three ways in which you can embrace the mantra of "eating your own excuses" and lead the charge toward a healthier lifestyle. 1. Embrace Accountability: Accountability is the cornerstone of transformation. It's about taking ownership of your choices and actions. "Excuses may comfort you momentarily, but accountability empowers you eternally." ~ Kristianne Wargo Start by keeping a food diary or scheduling regular workout sessions with a friend. By being accountable to yourself and others, you'll find it harder to make excuses and easier to stay on track toward your health goals. 2. Shift Your Mindset: Excuses often stem from a negative mindset rooted in self-doubt and fear. It's time to challenge those limiting beliefs and cultivate a positive outlook. "Your beliefs shape your reality. Change your mindset, change your life." ~ Unknown Practice positive affirmations, visualize your success, and surround yourself with supportive and inspiring individuals. By reshaping your mindset, you'll silence the excuses and pave the way for a healthier lifestyle. Think about this: What are you repeating to yourself? 3. Find Creative Solutions: Instead of dwelling on obstacles, focus on finding creative solutions to overcome them. "Don't let challenges derail you. Let them inspire you to innovate." ~ Kristianne Wargo If time is a barrier to cooking nutritious meals, meal prepping on weekends can be a game-changer. If the gym seems intimidating, explore alternative workouts like pilates or dancing. By thinking outside the box and adapting to challenges, you'll break free from the cycle of excuses and discover a world of possibilities for a healthier lifestyle. In the journey towards a healthier life, remember that excuses are simply roadblocks waiting to be demolished. Be the fearless toddler!! By embracing accountability, shifting your mindset, and finding creative solutions, you can transform your excuses into catalysts for positive change.

Don't look back! Fix your gaze ahead, embracing the unknown with courage and conviction. Think about it—Your eyes are on the front of your face. If you were supposed to look behind you, your eyes would be on the back of your head.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Now, I know that mom always told you that she has eyes on the back of her head. But you know that isn't true, and good thing. Because you probably would have gotten into more trouble than you did. Your past teaches you lessons so you know what to repeat, change, or forgive. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't look back!   Amidst the chaos of daily life, it's crucial to remember that dwelling on the past only serves to obscure the brilliance of the present moment. By resisting the temptation to look back, you open yourself up to a world of untapped potential and boundless opportunities that await you on the path ahead. So, why are you dragging your feet? Why are you letting what you can't change constrict what is possible? As the week unfolds and obstacles arise, remember this: "The distractions of the past may seem insurmountable, but don't let them overshadow the limitless possibilities that lie ahead. Awaken your presence and keep your gaze fixed on the future, for that is where your brightest days await." ~ Kristianne Wargo In the symphony of life, each chord—whether major or minor—contributes to the melody of your unique journey.

Don't look back! Fix your gaze ahead, embracing the unknown with courage and conviction. Think about it—Your eyes are on the front of your face. If you were supposed to look behind you, your eyes would be on the back of your head.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But you know that isn't true, and good thing. Because you probably would have gotten into more trouble than you did. Your past teaches you lessons so you know what to repeat, change, or forgive. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't look back!   Amidst the chaos of daily life, it's crucial to remember that dwelling on the past only serves to obscure the brilliance of the present moment. By resisting the temptation to look back, you open yourself up to a world of untapped potential and boundless opportunities that await you on the path ahead. So, why are you dragging your feet? Why are you letting what you can't change constrict what is possible? As the week unfolds and obstacles arise, remember this: "The distractions of the past may seem insurmountable, but don't let them overshadow the limitless possibilities that lie ahead.

Fear holds us back and becomes our daily heartbeat. Are you playing not to lose? Because if you are, you just might be leaving behind your dreams. You might be burying the hope that God desires for your life. But you don't see it the same. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You rise in the morning to prove that your way is the only way. Your persistence is directed AT people instead of looking at it from a team perspective WITH people.  Are you holding yourself back in life without even realizing it? Are you settling for less than you deserve because you're afraid to chase your dreams? Now, you know I love football. And more importantly, the stories that come with the players.  Did you know that only 0.023% of high school football players make it to the NFL? That means only about 1.6% of NCAA football players make it to the NFL. In other words, it's a rarity! When I was watching Georgia play Alabama two nights ago, you could tell who was ready and who was sitting back in their comfort chair.  At half-time, it was 30 - 7, Alabama. Who would have thought? But you see, the Alabama players were willing to go the extra mile! The K.I.S.S. ~ Go the extra M.I.L.E.!   You have got to put in what you want to get out of the game of life. If you are sitting on the sidelines, you're gonna get the leftovers. You're gonna have to give up a few or most of your dreams.  So, how can you go the extra M.I.L.E. in real life? MINDSET: Shift your thoughts towards positivity and possibility. Believe in yourself and your capabilities. "Your mindset is the foundation of your success. Choose thoughts that empower you to reach your full potential, your possibility." ~ Kristianne Wargo How can you reach your dream if you don't dream? How can you get through the craziness if you don't have the recipe of possibility - What does this make possible (Dan Miller)? INTENTION: Take intentional actions toward your goals. Set clear objectives and work towards them with determination.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo During the first half of the football game, there was a player wearing #2 on offense (Williams). He is 17 years old playing in his first night televised SEC game. No pressure. But what you didn't know was that he started on team 3 at practices. The quarterback, Milroe of Alabama, started to notice him and talked to the coaches. Over weeks of hard, intentional practice, #2 became a part of team #1.  LIFESTYLE: Cultivate a winning attitude in every aspect of your life. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. "Your lifestyle is a reflection of your mindset. For every setback, you have the opportunity for a comeback. Choose habits that align with your vision for success." ~ Kristianne Wargo Are you living the life that can lead to your dreams? ENERGY: Show up with positive energy and enthusiasm. Your presence and attitude can impact your outcomes significantly. Radiate confidence and passion in everything you do. "Your energy is contagious and so is your presence. Be a light that inspires others to shine." ~ Kristianne Wargo At half-time, there was no doubt that Alabama was going to win. However, Beck #15, the Georiga quarterback, threw 3 consecutive touchdowns to put the Georgia Bulldogs ahead 34 - 33. How could this be? Where was the team that fought so hard during the first half? Well, all it took was a little determination and energy for Milroe to throw the 75-yard pass to none other than #2 Williams. Going for 2 it was now 41 - 34 Alabama.  The intensity of the charge down the field grew, putting pressure on all 22 players out there. Beck had the ball, goes to throw it in the endzone only for it to be intercepted by #2 on Alabama defense, Brown, a true freshman. HIGHLIGHT -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84hBdihR0Mo Do you think Williams or Brown ever second-guessed themselves? Of course, they did. But they were always willing to go the extra M.I.L.E.! And two nights ago, they got to celebrate because their skills, their habits, their thoughts, their actions paid off because they went the extra mile. It's time to stop playing it safe and start playing full out. Go the extra M.I.L.E. and transform your life. "Life is a journey meant to be well lived, not watched from the sidelines. Get in the game and play to win!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Maybe if we used Jeremiah 33:3 - "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." Maybe it's time to call on God. Imagine the shift in your perspective if God was the first to hear your every call. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Your reactions to the world around you would evolve, as you open yourself up to boundless wisdom and insight beyond human comprehension. Emotions would find clarity in divine guidance. The grip of hurt and anguish would loosen its hold on your heart as you surrender your fears, hopes, and dreams to your Heavenly Father. In relinquishing control and placing your trust in God's hands, you open yourself up to a world of possibilities beyond your wildest imagination. Proverbs 3:5-6 - "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." What if, instead of seeking validation from those around you, you turned to God with your deepest fears and desires? "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." ~ Matthew 7:7 By presenting your requests to God, you invite a level of intimacy and understanding that transcends human connection. The K.I.S.S. ~ Who you gonna call?   Through prayer and reflection, you embark on a journey of self-discovery and revelation, finding peace in the presence of God, who truly knows and cares for you, your purpose, and your passion. He created you on purpose for a purpose. Philippians 4:6-7 - "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Take a moment today to seek God, to call upon Him and to lay bare your heart with the assurance of being heard and loved.  Psalm 46:10 - "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." CHALLENGE: What are you going to talk to God about? In this act of faith and surrender, you may just find the answers you seek and the peace your heart craves. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Maybe if we used Jeremiah 33:3 - "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." Maybe it's time to call on God. Imagine the shift in your perspective if God was the first to hear your every call. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Emotions would find clarity in divine guidance. The grip of hurt and anguish would loosen its hold on your heart as you surrender your fears, hopes, and dreams to your Heavenly Father. In relinquishing control and placing your trust in God's hands, you open yourself up to a world of possibilities beyond your wildest imagination. Proverbs 3:5-6 - "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." What if, instead of seeking validation from those around you, you turned to God with your deepest fears and desires? "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." ~ Matthew 7:7 By presenting your requests to God, you invite a level of intimacy and understanding that transcends human connection. The K.I.S.S. ~ Who you gonna call?   Through prayer and reflection, you embark on a journey of self-discovery and revelation, finding peace in the presence of God, who truly knows and cares for you, your purpose, and your passion. He created you on purpose for a purpose. Philippians 4:6-7 - "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Take a moment today to seek God, to call upon Him and to lay bare your heart with the assurance of being heard and loved.  Psalm 46:10 - "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." CHALLENGE: What are you going to talk to God about? In this act of faith and surrender, you may just find the answers you seek and the peace your heart craves. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But because life happens, it's easy to forget that there are two people in the marriage, more than 'I do.' Yet, amidst the whirlwind of daily routines and responsibilities, it's easy to fall into the trap of assuming that taking care of one's spouse means taking charge of every situation. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The person who believes they are looking out for their partner by constantly stepping in may unknowingly be creating barriers to true unity and connection in their relationship. Where are you on this? Does it hit a little too close to home? Maybe you haven't given it any thought. No problem. Today, let's pay attention to what this brings up within you. The struggle lies in the misguided notion that one's actions, decisions, and interventions are solely for the benefit of their spouse, without considering the importance of collaboration and shared decision-making. By always assuming the role of the caretaker or the problem-solver, if you are this person, you are inadvertently robbing your partner of the opportunity to contribute, take the initiative, and feel valued as an equal participant in the marriage. In this dynamic, the relationship becomes skewed, with one partner shouldering the burden of responsibility while the other is relegated to a passive role. The person in charge, it may be you, might believe they are being selfless and protective, but in reality, you are denying your spouse the chance to express themselves, showcase their strengths, and actively engage in shaping your alls shared future. Let's take it a step further. By constantly swooping in to "save the day," you could be communicating a lack of trust in your partner's abilities, undermining their confidence and sense of agency. The imbalance created by this dynamic can breed resentment, frustration, and a sense of disconnection, leading to simmering tensions and unspoken grievances that erode the foundation of the marriage. Let the bitterness build! Ultimately, the person who believes they are caring for their spouse by shouldering all responsibilities is missing out on the beauty and richness of true partnership. A healthy marriage thrives on mutual respect, reciprocity, and shared decision-making, where both of you are empowered to contribute your unique perspectives, strengths, and voices to the marriage. So, how do you make the shift from "I" to "we" to rid the selfishness within the sacred soil of matrimony? Rid the weeds so you can protect the roots! The K.I.S.S. ~ Protect the R.O.O.T.S.!   It is only by creating space for both partners to step up, to collaborate, and to co-create their shared journey that a marriage can truly flourish. By letting go of control, embracing vulnerability, and fostering a spirit of teamwork, you can pave the way for a deeper, more authentic connection with your spouse based on trust, mutual support, and a shared sense of purpose. ROOTS: Respect, Openness, Observation, Nourishment, Time, Support 1. RESPECT: Just as roots anchor and support a plant, respect forms the foundation of a healthy relationship. Respect your partner's thoughts, feelings, and boundaries, nurturing a sense of mutual appreciation and understanding. "Respect is the cornerstone of every healthy relationship, fostering trust, understanding, and mutual admiration." - Kristianne Wargo 2. OPENNESS: Cultivate openness in your relationship, allowing emotions, communication, and vulnerability to flow freely like water nourishing the roots. Be receptive to your partner's needs and perspectives, fostering an environment of trust and transparency. "In the garden of love, openness is the sunlight that nourishes growth, vulnerability, and authentic connection." - Kristianne Wargo 3. OBSERVATION: Practice active listening and observation, like the leaves of a plant absorbing sunlight for growth. Pay attention to verbal and non-verbal cues, empathetically tuning into your partner's emotions and experiences. "Through attentive observation, we hear not only the words spoken but the emotions left unsaid, creating a deeper bond in our relationships." - Kristianne Wargo 4. TIME: Just as a plant needs time to grow and flourish, relationships require patience, effort, and dedication. Invest time in your partnership, allowing it to deepen and strengthen over time, like roots growing deeper into the ground. "Time is the silent gardener of love, tending to the roots of our relationship, allowing it to grow stronger with each passing moment." - Kristianne Wargo 5. SUPPORT: Offer support to your partner, like a trellis supporting a climbing vine. Create space for them to flourish, grow, and thrive, while also seeking support and collaboration in return. "Like a sturdy trellis, support in a relationship provides space for growth, stability in times of need, and a foundation of unwavering love." - Kristianne Wargo By tending to the R.O.O.T.S. – Respect, Openness, Observation, Time, Support – of your relationship, you can foster a deep, lasting connection rooted in mutual respect, empathy, and growth. Just as a plant flourishes with strong roots, your partnership will bloom and thrive when nourished, as plants receive fertilization with kindness, gratitude, and unconditional love. Marriage is not just about saying "I do" but about living out the daily commitment to "we get to." By practicing active listening, empathy, and gratitude, you can shift the focus from "I" to "we" in your relationship, creating a harmonious and fulfilling union based on mutual respect, understanding, and love. In the end, true love is not about fixing, rescuing, or controlling – it's about standing side by side, hand in hand, and embracing the beautiful messiness of life together, as equal partners in a dance of love, growth, and mutual respect.

Are your emotions victorious? As you strive to meet the needs of your children, manage household tasks, and keep up with life's demands, it's easy to feel like you're constantly treading water, struggling to stay afloat amidst a sea of never-ending obligations. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The pressure to be everything to everyone can take a toll on your emotional well-being, leaving you feeling exhausted, frazzled, and, at times, on the verge of emotional burnout. Despite your best efforts, it can seem like there's always more to do, more to give, and less time to focus on your own emotional needs. Balancing the role of caregiver, nurturer, and provider can be a daunting task, leaving you longing for a moment of peace and a sense of emotional stability in the midst of life's chaos. But it doesn't have to be this way. You are made for more than the hostility of long days and short nights. So, instead of focusing on the chaos, let your emotions become a harmony of appreciation regardless of the season.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a harmony of appreciation!   With a few simple strategies, you can learn to prioritize your emotional health and create a more balanced and fulfilling experience for both you and your children. 1. Practice Self-Care: Taking care of yourself is not a luxury, it's a necessity. Make self-care a priority in your daily routine, even if it's just for a few minutes each day. Find activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or enjoying a hot bath. By prioritizing self-care, you'll have more energy and emotional resilience to handle the challenges of parenting. "Self-care is not selfish—it's appreciating who you are and who you are becoming in mind, body, and spirit." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Practice Thoughtfulness: Your presence is required. Thoughtfulness forces you to stop, slow down, and smell the roses. By interweaving thoughtfulness into your daily life, you can reduce stress and anxiety, improve your focus and concentration, and enhance your overall emotional well-being. Take a few moments each day to simply breathe and be present with your thoughts and feelings. This simple practice can have a profound impact on your emotional health. "Thoughtfulness allows you to connect with your inner self and find peace amidst the chaos of parenting. Embrace the presence and let go of worries about the future or regrets about the past." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Practice ASKing: Parenting is not a solo endeavor. Don't be afraid to reach out for help and support when you need it. Whether it's talking to a friend, joining a parenting group, or seeking professional counseling, having a support system in place can make a world of difference in how you navigate the challenges of parenthood. "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. ~ Matthew 7:7 (NIV) Remember, it's okay to ask for help—it doesn't make you any less of a good parent. "You don't have to do it all alone. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Even Jesus asked for help." ~ Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the highs and lows of parenting, remember that your emotions matter. You can stay emotionally grounded and create a harmonious environment for yourself and your children. Choose to let your emotions be victorious. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Are your emotions victorious? As you strive to meet the needs of your children, manage household tasks, and keep up with life's demands, it's easy to feel like you're constantly treading water, struggling to stay afloat amidst a sea of never-ending obligations. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The pressure to be everything to everyone can take a toll on your emotional well-being, leaving you feeling exhausted, frazzled, and, at times, on the verge of emotional burnout. Despite your best efforts, it can seem like there's always more to do, more to give, and less time to focus on your own emotional needs. Balancing the role of caregiver, nurturer, and provider can be a daunting task, leaving you longing for a moment of peace and a sense of emotional stability in the midst of life's chaos. But it doesn't have to be this way. You are made for more than the hostility of long days and short nights. So, instead of focusing on the chaos, let your emotions become a harmony of appreciation regardless of the season.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a harmony of appreciation!   With a few simple strategies, you can learn to prioritize your emotional health and create a more balanced and fulfilling experience for both you and your children. 1. Practice Self-Care: Taking care of yourself is not a luxury, it's a necessity. Make self-care a priority in your daily routine, even if it's just for a few minutes each day. Find activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or enjoying a hot bath. By prioritizing self-care, you'll have more energy and emotional resilience to handle the challenges of parenting. "Self-care is not selfish—it's appreciating who you are and who you are becoming in mind, body, and spirit." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Practice Thoughtfulness: Your presence is required. Thoughtfulness forces you to stop, slow down, and smell the roses. By interweaving thoughtfulness into your daily life, you can reduce stress and anxiety, improve your focus and concentration, and enhance your overall emotional well-being. Take a few moments each day to simply breathe and be present with your thoughts and feelings. This simple practice can have a profound impact on your emotional health. "Thoughtfulness allows you to connect with your inner self and find peace amidst the chaos of parenting. Embrace the presence and let go of worries about the future or regrets about the past." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Practice ASKing: Parenting is not a solo endeavor. Don't be afraid to reach out for help and support when you need it. Whether it's talking to a friend, joining a parenting group, or seeking professional counseling, having a support system in place can make a world of difference in how you navigate the challenges of parenthood. "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. ~ Matthew 7:7 (NIV) Remember, it's okay to ask for help—it doesn't make you any less of a good parent. "You don't have to do it all alone. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Even Jesus asked for help." ~ Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the highs and lows of parenting, remember that your emotions matter. You can stay emotionally grounded and create a harmonious environment for yourself and your children. Choose to let your emotions be victorious. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Here are three transformative practices that can elevate your well-being into a realm of extraordinary fulfillment: 1. Conscious Nutrition: Let go of the notion of food as mere sustenance; instead, embrace it as a harmonious dance between your body and the nourishment it craves. "Every bite you take should be a love letter to your body." ~ Kristianne Wargo. By mindfully selecting whole, nutrient-rich foods and relishing each mouthful with gratitude, you not only fuel your body but also nourish your soul. Through conscious eating, you can forge a profound connection with the sustenance that sustains you, flooding your body with goodness. 2. Empowered Movement: Shift your perspective on exercise from a chore to a celebration of your body's innate strength and resilience. Move your body with purpose and joy, honoring the magnificent vessel that carries you through life's adventures. "Make every step, stretch, and squat a testament to your body's resilience; it's movement that inspires." ~ Kristianne Wargo Whether it's invigorating Pilates, energizing strength training sessions, or serene nature walks, let movement be a form of self-expression and empowerment. Embrace the transformative power of physical activity to sculpt not only your physique but also your mindset and spirit. 3. Soulful Revitalization: In a world that glorifies the "hustle," the art of rest and rejuvenation often gets overlooked. Yet, true wellness encompasses a delicate harmony between activity and repose. "Rest is not a luxury; it is a necessity for your mind, body, and spirit to thrive." ~ Kristianne Wargo Prioritize moments of stillness, whether through restorative sleep, mindfulness practices, or indulgent self-care rituals. Allow yourself the space to recharge your batteries, replenish your energy, and reconnect with your inner wisdom. In honoring the rhythm of rest, you honor the rhythm of life itself. "Be present.

Allow yourself the space to recharge your batteries, replenish your energy, and reconnect with your inner wisdom. In honoring the rhythm of rest, you honor the rhythm of life itself. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Therefore, fuel your dreams with emotional resilience. As you navigate through life with aspirations and ambitions, it becomes crucial to manage your emotions and feelings effectively. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    These internal factors can either fuel your journey towards success or become obstacles that hinder your progress. If you allow your emotions to overpower your rational thinking, your dreams may fade into the background while you focus on extinguishing the fire ignited by your feelings. To stay committed to your goals without losing sight of your emotions, you must take intentional steps to maintain a healthy balance in your life. This requires ongoing effort and dedication to self-awareness, self-improvement, and emotional regulation. It's a continuous process of understanding who you are, envisioning who you want to become, and ensuring that your emotions do not derail you from your path to success. So, how do you gain control over your emotions so your dreams can rise? You have got to stay grounded in the pursuit of your dreams. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay grounded in the pursuit of your dreams!   As we discuss what this looks like in real life, think about how you handle things, good or bad, and where you see yourself right now. This is not about beating yourself up, but looking at it with a compassionate microscope so you can stay grounded in pursuing your dreams. PRACTICE MINDFULNESS AND SELF-REFLECTION One way to stay grounded in the pursuit of our dreams is to practice mindfulness and self-reflection. By cultivating a habit of introspection, we can better understand our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This self-awareness enables us to identify triggers that may lead to emotional upheaval and respond to challenges with clarity and composure. In both personal and professional settings, mindfulness allows us to navigate complex situations with grace and resilience. "Mindfulness is the compass that guides us through turbulent waters, helping us navigate our emotions with grace and clarity." - Kristianne Wargo SET REALISTIC GOALS AND CREATE A STRATEGIC PLAN Setting realistic goals and creating a strategic plan is another effective way to stay committed to our aspirations while managing our emotions. By breaking down our overarching objectives into manageable tasks and milestones, we can track our progress and celebrate small victories along the way. This structured approach not only keeps us focused on our goals but also prevents overwhelming emotions from derailing our momentum. In the words of renowned author and motivational speaker Tony Robbins, "Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible." "Setting goals is not just about reaching the destination; it's about embracing the journey and celebrating every step forward. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" - Kristianne Wargo SURROUND YOURSELF WITH A SUPPORTIVE NETWORK Moreover, surrounding ourselves with a supportive network of mentors, friends, and colleagues can provide invaluable guidance and encouragement on our journey toward success. By seeking advice from experienced individuals who have faced similar challenges, we can gain new perspectives and insights that help us navigate obstacles with confidence and determination. Building a strong support system not only strengthens our resolve but also reinforces our belief in our capabilities and potential. "In the tapestry of life, a supportive network weaves threads of strength and encouragement, fortifying our belief in ourselves and our potential." - Kristianne Wargo In the words of mindset and focus experts, the importance of self-belief cannot be overstated. "Believing in yourself is the cornerstone of achieving your dreams. Trust in your abilities and never underestimate the power of your potential." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: Where are you unsettled in your emotional resilience? What gets under your skin where it's hard to bounce back quickly? How can you make a change to redirect yourself in your everyday journey? By nurturing a positive mindset, practicing self-care, and embracing resilience, you can overcome self-doubt and fear, and unlock your true potential to reach new heights of success. Remember, your belief in yourself is the guiding light that illuminates the path to your dreams. Trust yourself with each decision you make so the journey is well-lived. Stay committed to your goals, and let your unwavering self-belief propel you toward the future you envision. "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This verse encourages believers to find joy in the midst of trials and challenges, recognizing that these difficulties can strengthen their faith and character, leading to maturity and wholeness. It emphasizes the importance of perseverance and trust in God's plan for their lives. Life is a beautiful paradox, a delicate balance of sorrow and joy, challenges and victories. In the midst of adversity, there is hope; in times of sorrow, there is joy awaiting us. It's the ebb and flow of life that shapes us and teaches us to appreciate the blessings that come our way. Amidst the chaos and uncertainties of this world, it's easy to fall into the trap of negative patterns and lose sight of the bigger picture. However, it's essential to remember that there is always a glimmer of light in the darkness, a reason to hope even in the face of despair. The K.I.S.S. ~ Faith produces perseverance!   While suffering and disappointments may be inevitable, there is comfort in knowing that each day presents new opportunities and blessings. "For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning." ~ Psalm 30:5 Tears and joy can coexist, painting a vivid tapestry of emotions that remind us of the complexity and beauty of life. Our faith and belief in a greater purpose allow us to find strength and consolation, knowing that we are cherished and loved unconditionally. You are not alone in your journey. God is with you! "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." ~ Romans 15:13 Today, find comfort in the assurance that you are not defined by your circumstances but by the unwavering love and grace given to you. Embrace the paradox of life with faith, knowing that you are deeply cherished and cared for by your heavenly Father. God takes care of your heart; it's not your accomplishments that fill your heart. Stay encouraged, for you are a beloved child of God, deserving of all the blessings and miracles that await you. Yes, there are going to be ups and downs, and all around, but embrace each moment with gratitude and faith, believing that you are guided and protected by a divine presence that surrounds you with love, God himself. "For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison." ~ 2 Corinthians 4:17 May your day be filled with the peace and joy that comes from knowing that you are loved beyond measure.  "Be present.

It emphasizes the importance of perseverance and trust in God's plan for their lives. Life is a beautiful paradox, a delicate balance of sorrow and joy, challenges and victories. In the midst of adversity, there is hope; in times of sorrow, there is joy awaiting us. It's the ebb and flow of life that shapes us and teaches us to appreciate the blessings that come our way. Amidst the chaos and uncertainties of this world, it's easy to fall into the trap of negative patterns and lose sight of the bigger picture. However, it's essential to remember that there is always a glimmer of light in the darkness, a reason to hope even in the face of despair. The K.I.S.S. ~ Faith produces perseverance!   While suffering and disappointments may be inevitable, there is comfort in knowing that each day presents new opportunities and blessings. "For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning." ~ Psalm 30:5 Tears and joy can coexist, painting a vivid tapestry of emotions that remind us of the complexity and beauty of life. Our faith and belief in a greater purpose allow us to find strength and consolation, knowing that we are cherished and loved unconditionally. You are not alone in your journey. God is with you! "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." ~ Romans 15:13 Today, find comfort in the assurance that you are not defined by your circumstances but by the unwavering love and grace given to you. Embrace the paradox of life with faith, knowing that you are deeply cherished and cared for by your heavenly Father. God takes care of your heart; it's not your accomplishments that fill your heart. Stay encouraged, for you are a beloved child of God, deserving of all the blessings and miracles that await you. Yes, there are going to be ups and downs, and all around, but embrace each moment with gratitude and faith, believing that you are guided and protected by a divine presence that surrounds you with love, God himself. "For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison." ~ 2 Corinthians 4:17 May your day be filled with the peace and joy that comes from knowing that you are loved beyond measure.  "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But what if, instead of keeping score, you choose to find freedom in forgiveness? As you know, it's all too easy to find ourselves mentally tallying up who did the dishes last, who took out the trash, who planned the last date night, or whose turn it is to get the kiddos ready for bed.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What if you let go of the need to constantly measure your spouse's actions against your own and instead focus on fostering a deeper, more loving connection? How would that make you feel? You know I'm all about a good football game. But in this case, the score of your game needs to remain zero to zero. Let me ask you-- What is the score?  If you have to think twice, you are keeping score. In marriage, give 'n take is all a part of unconditional love. But once you allow yourself to keep score and lean more toward what's not happening, you know that maybe the game is a little more serious than you thought. So, how do you keep score to not keep score? You must connect to the heart, not the scoreboard. The K.I.S.S. ~ Connect to the heart!   Now, understand that words and actions have power. Yet, if everything is done because one of you wants the "win," you are married for the wrong reasons. You don't see the person you are sleeping with.  1. Practice Empathy and Understanding One of the most powerful ways to let go of scorekeeping in a marriage is to practice empathy and understanding. Put yourself in your partner's shoes, try to see things from their perspective, and approach disagreements with compassion. When you let go of the need to be right (that "win") and instead seek to understand, you create a foundation of trust and emotional intimacy. For example, instead of getting upset when your partner forgets to do something you asked, take a moment to consider what might be going on in their world that led to the oversight. By approaching the situation with empathy, you open the door to forgiveness and deeper connection. "In the game of love, the score that truly matters is the one where both partners feel seen, heard, and loved." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Communicate Openly and Honestly Another key to breaking free from the cycle of scorekeeping is open and honest communication, not demands or hints of "this is right." Create a safe space for both you and your partner to express your thoughts, feelings, and needs without fear of judgment. By fostering a culture of open communication, you can address issues as they arise instead of letting them fester and lead to resentment. For instance, if you feel like your partner isn't pulling their weight in certain aspects of the relationship, have a candid conversation about your expectations and how you can support each other better. By communicating openly, you pave the way for understanding and forgiveness to flourish. "True love thrives in the vulnerability of honest communication." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Cultivate Gratitude and Appreciation Lastly, to shift away from keeping score and moving toward a more loving and forgiving mindset, cultivate a practice of gratitude and appreciation. Take time each day to reflect on the qualities and actions of your partner that you are grateful for. Show appreciation for the little things they do, whether it's making you a cup of coffee in the morning or leaving a sweet note on your desk. By focusing on the positive aspects of your relationship and expressing gratitude regularly, you create a sense of mutual respect and admiration that transcends petty grievances. For example, make it a habit to express gratitude to your partner for their contributions to your shared life, no matter how small. Remember, you're in this together. And this will help you both feel valued and loved, strengthening your bond and fostering forgiveness. "In the dance of marriage, gratitude is the music that keeps the rhythm of love alive." ~ Kristianne Wargo In marriage, finding freedom in forgiveness requires a shift in mindset from keeping score to embracing empathy, communication, and gratitude. By letting go of the need to tally up perceived slights and instead choosing to forgive and love unconditionally, you, as a couple, can deepen your connection and create a relationship rooted in understanding and compassion. As you navigate the challenges of everyday life with your spouse, remember that the true victory lies not in winning imaginary competitions but in building a foundation of love that transcends scorekeeping and flourishes in forgiveness.

Even as hard as parents try, love can get lost in the message if parents don't learn how to nurture parent-child connections. As you know, parenting is an intricate dance. Just as each child is unique, so too are the ways they give and receive love. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    While parents may pour their hearts into demonstrating affection, sometimes it's not received well, if at all. This can lead to misunderstandings, miscommunications, and, ultimately, a disconnect in the parent-child relationship. Gary Chapman, renowned author and counselor, pioneered the concept of the Five Love Languages - Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch. By understanding and speaking a child's specific love language, parents can bridge the gap and nurture a deeper connection with their little ones. Words of Affirmation  Words of affirmation like "Your hair looks amazing today!" or "You played an incredible game tonight!" hold significant value for children who thrive on praise. Whether complimenting their personality, achievements, appearance, or anything that validates them, these words can have a lasting impact. It's important to note that offering a monetary reward to a child who craves affirmation will ultimately leave them feeling unfulfilled. Acts of Service During the formative years, we care for our children by fulfilling tasks they are unable to do independently. As they grow, our love manifests through guiding them in learning how to navigate life on their own. For a child who resonates with acts of service as their primary love language, understanding which specific acts hold significance is crucial. Does assisting with homework or teaching them a new skill like throwing a ball make them feel loved and valued? Gifts Children who resonate with this love language cherish gifts as a physical expression of love and care. However, they may also perceive a scarcity of gifts as a scarcity of love. It's essential to understand that the value of the gift lies not in its cost but in the sentiment behind it. Acknowledging that a child may feel more appreciated with a small token like a pack of gum than with a hug is key to fostering effective communication and connection. Quality Time Children who communicate through this love language crave dedicated and uninterrupted attention. From playful interactions on the floor during infancy to engaging in conversations, reading bedtime stories, or enjoying outdoor activities as they grow older, the essence of quality time lies in the bond created through shared experiences. While the specific activity may vary, the shared moments hold the utmost importance. In families with multiple children, it can be challenging for a child to secure one-on-one time with a parent. It's essential for them to feel valued and reassured that they deserve and are worthy of receiving undivided attention. Physical Touch The profound impact of physical touch on emotional well-being has been recognized for ages. From the early stages of development where held infants thrive compared to those left alone, to older children who continue to yearn for physical closeness, the significance of simple gestures like a touch on the arm, a reassuring pat on the back, or a warm hug cannot be overstated. These acts of physical affection hold special importance for children fluent in this love language, as they seek to tangibly feel the depth of your love and care. So how do you discover your child's love language? The only way you can do that is to learn to read your child. The K.I.S.S. ~ Learn to read your child!   Discovering a child's love language requires a mindful approach and a willingness to adapt. Here are three practical steps parents can take to understand and speak their child's unique love language: 1. Observe and Listen: Pay close attention to how your child expresses affection towards others and what they request or appreciate in return. For example, if your child often seeks hugs and physical closeness, their primary love language might be Physical Touch. In this case, offering frequent hugs, cuddles, and high-fives can make them feel cherished and understood. 2. Experiment and Engage: Try expressing love to your child through each of the Five Love Languages and observe their reactions. For a child whose love language is Receiving Gifts, surprising them with a small token of appreciation like a handmade card or a favorite treat can speak volumes. Alternatively, engaging in shared activities such as playing a board game or going for a nature walk caters to a child who values Quality Time. 3. Communicate and Validate: Open communication is key to understanding your child's emotional needs. Encourage them to express how they feel loved and appreciated, and validate their feelings even if they differ from your own. Using Words of Affirmation to acknowledge their efforts, strengths, and unique qualities can boost their self-esteem and reinforce a positive parent-child bond. By actively learning and speaking your child's love language, you can foster a nurturing and supportive environment where love flows freely and authentically. Just as a flower needs the right conditions to bloom, children thrive when their emotional needs are met in a language they understand. So, let's embrace the journey of discovery and celebrate the beauty of loving our children the way they receive love. "Be present. Be incredible.

Even as hard as parents try, love can get lost in the message if parents don't learn how to nurture parent-child connections. As you know, parenting is an intricate dance. Just as each child is unique, so too are the ways they give and receive love. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    While parents may pour their hearts into demonstrating affection, sometimes it's not received well, if at all. This can lead to misunderstandings, miscommunications, and, ultimately, a disconnect in the parent-child relationship. Gary Chapman, renowned author and counselor, pioneered the concept of the Five Love Languages - Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch. By understanding and speaking a child's specific love language, parents can bridge the gap and nurture a deeper connection with their little ones. Words of Affirmation  Words of affirmation like "Your hair looks amazing today!" or "You played an incredible game tonight!" hold significant value for children who thrive on praise. Whether complimenting their personality, achievements, appearance, or anything that validates them, these words can have a lasting impact. It's important to note that offering a monetary reward to a child who craves affirmation will ultimately leave them feeling unfulfilled. Acts of Service During the formative years, we care for our children by fulfilling tasks they are unable to do independently. As they grow, our love manifests through guiding them in learning how to navigate life on their own. For a child who resonates with acts of service as their primary love language, understanding which specific acts hold significance is crucial. Does assisting with homework or teaching them a new skill like throwing a ball make them feel loved and valued? Gifts Children who resonate with this love language cherish gifts as a physical expression of love and care. However, they may also perceive a scarcity of gifts as a scarcity of love. It's essential to understand that the value of the gift lies not in its cost but in the sentiment behind it. Acknowledging that a child may feel more appreciated with a small token like a pack of gum than with a hug is key to fostering effective communication and connection. Quality Time Children who communicate through this love language crave dedicated and uninterrupted attention. From playful interactions on the floor during infancy to engaging in conversations, reading bedtime stories, or enjoying outdoor activities as they grow older, the essence of quality time lies in the bond created through shared experiences. While the specific activity may vary, the shared moments hold the utmost importance. In families with multiple children, it can be challenging for a child to secure one-on-one time with a parent. It's essential for them to feel valued and reassured that they deserve and are worthy of receiving undivided attention. Physical Touch The profound impact of physical touch on emotional well-being has been recognized for ages. From the early stages of development where held infants thrive compared to those left alone, to older children who continue to yearn for physical closeness, the significance of simple gestures like a touch on the arm, a reassuring pat on the back, or a warm hug cannot be overstated. These acts of physical affection hold special importance for children fluent in this love language, as they seek to tangibly feel the depth of your love and care. So how do you discover your child's love language? The only way you can do that is to learn to read your child. The K.I.S.S. ~ Learn to read your child!

It's during these challenging moments that you need to remind yourself of a simple but powerful truth: You can do this! In the face of adversity, it's easy to feel defeated and hopeless. It's easy to let doubt and fear creep in, clouding our judgment and making us question our abilities. But deep down, beneath the layers of uncertainty and fear, lies a reservoir of inner strength waiting to be tapped into. Do you feel that sometimes, but maybe not today? When the road ahead seems daunting and the odds are stacked against you, it's important to remember that resilience is not about avoiding challenges, but about facing them head-on. It's about acknowledging your fears and doubts, yet refusing to let them dictate your actions. It's about accepting that mistakes and setbacks are part of the journey, not the end of it. The K.I.S.S. ~ You can do this!   So, if you are the one feeling tired and frustrated with life, know this: You are capable of overcoming whatever obstacles come your way.

It's not about waiting for the perfect moment or the right conditions; it's about seizing the present and making the most of every opportunity that comes your way. Your dreams are worth pursuing, and your goals are worth chasing. So, keep pushing forward, keep pushing through. You may not see the light at the end of the tunnel yet, but trust that it's there, guiding you towards a brighter tomorrow.

Usually, there are more temptations and troubles before there is success and strength.

Amidst the chaos of our fast-paced lifestyles, it's easy to get caught up in unhealthy habits and neglect our well-being. But what if it's time to break free from this cycle, take a step back, and focus on creating a healthier version of yourself? "Healthy living is not something that comes with ease. Usually, there are more temptations and troubles before there is success and strength," says Kristianne Wargo. This sentiment rings true for many of us who struggle to prioritize our health in the midst of daily demands. It's time to make the changes needed for you to be healthy. This involves breaking free from old patterns and habits that no longer serve you. Instead of adhering to the status quo, it's essential to carve out a path that aligns with your well-being goals. "In this season of life, you have the opportunity to erase what hasn't worked and focus on what can be done now to create your now in healthy living." ~ Kristianne Wargo. Your health and well-being are paramount, and it's crucial to prioritize self-care without making excuses. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prioritize YOU!!!   Now, you can look at the normal stuff that everyone talks about. 1. Mindful Eating: Instead of mindlessly consuming food, take the time to savor each bite. Listen to your body's hunger cues and opt for nourishing, whole foods that fuel your body. 2. Prioritize Movement: Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine, whether it's a brisk walk, yoga session, or dance class. Movement not only benefits your physical health but also boosts your mood and energy levels. 3. Practice Self-Care: Carve out time for activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading a book, taking a bubble bath, or meditating. Prioritizing self-care is essential for maintaining overall well-being. Certainly, there are some other actions that we don't think of immediately to prioritize your health and well-being. 1. Hydration Habits - Small Step: Start your day with a glass of water before consuming any other beverages or food. - Small Step: Carry a reusable water bottle with you throughout the day to ensure you stay hydrated. - Small Step: Set a goal to drink a certain amount of water each day and track your intake using a water tracker app. 2. Sleep Quality Improvement - Small Step: Establish a bedtime routine that includes winding down activities such as reading or meditating. - Small Step: Create a cool, dark, and quiet sleep environment to promote optimal rest. - Small Step: Limit screen time before bed and consider implementing a digital curfew to improve sleep quality. 3. Stress Management Strategies - Small Step: Incorporate daily mindfulness practices such as deep breathing exercises or meditation. - Small Step: Identify stress triggers and develop coping mechanisms such as journaling or talking to a trusted friend. - Small Step: Prioritize self-care activities that help reduce stress levels, such as taking a nature walk or engaging in a hobby you enjoy. As you embark on this journey towards a healthier you, remember this. "You matter. Stop making excuses and rise to the top of caring for yourself." ~ Kristianne Wargo By taking proactive steps to nurture your well-being, you can retreat from the ripple effect of unhealthy habits and create a positive ripple effect of wellness in your life.

Your health and well-being are paramount, and it's crucial to prioritize self-care without making excuses. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prioritize YOU!!!   Now, you can look at the normal stuff that everyone talks about. 1. Mindful Eating: Instead of mindlessly consuming food, take the time to savor each bite. Listen to your body's hunger cues and opt for nourishing, whole foods that fuel your body. 2. Prioritize Movement: Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine, whether it's a brisk walk, yoga session, or dance class. Movement not only benefits your physical health but also boosts your mood and energy levels. 3. Practice Self-Care: Carve out time for activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading a book, taking a bubble bath, or meditating. Prioritizing self-care is essential for maintaining overall well-being. Certainly, there are some other actions that we don't think of immediately to prioritize your health and well-being. 1. Hydration Habits - Small Step: Start your day with a glass of water before consuming any other beverages or food. - Small Step: Carry a reusable water bottle with you throughout the day to ensure you stay hydrated. - Small Step: Set a goal to drink a certain amount of water each day and track your intake using a water tracker app. 2. Sleep Quality Improvement - Small Step: Establish a bedtime routine that includes winding down activities such as reading or meditating. - Small Step: Create a cool, dark, and quiet sleep environment to promote optimal rest. - Small Step: Limit screen time before bed and consider implementing a digital curfew to improve sleep quality. 3. Stress Management Strategies - Small Step: Incorporate daily mindfulness practices such as deep breathing exercises or meditation. - Small Step: Identify stress triggers and develop coping mechanisms such as journaling or talking to a trusted friend. - Small Step: Prioritize self-care activities that help reduce stress levels, such as taking a nature walk or engaging in a hobby you enjoy. As you embark on this journey towards a healthier you, remember this. "You matter. Stop making excuses and rise to the top of caring for yourself." ~ Kristianne Wargo By taking proactive steps to nurture your well-being, you can retreat from the ripple effect of unhealthy habits and create a positive ripple effect of wellness in your life.

Goals and change take time. Celebrate the small victories and learn from the big mishaps. It's all an adventure, so trust the journey. In the hustle and bustle of our modern lives, it's easy to fall into the trap of rushing from one task to another, one goal to the next, without pausing to appreciate the beauty of the present moment.

But what if we shifted our perspective and learned to trust the journey? In this fast-paced world, patience can feel like a lost virtue. We want instant results, immediate gratification, and swift success. But true growth, meaningful change, and lasting achievements take time. The K.I.S.S. ~ Trust the journey!   Every step, every stumble, every detour is part of the grand adventure of life. Instead of rushing through it, let's savor each moment, each experience, each lesson learned. Author and motivational speaker, Steve Maraboli, once said, "Life is a journey that must be traveled no matter how bad the roads and accommodations." Embrace the bumps and bruises along the way, for they are what shape us and mold us into the resilient beings we are meant to be. Celebrate the small victories – the milestones reached, the obstacles overcome, the lessons absorbed – for they pave the way for the grand triumphs that lie ahead. As we navigate the twists and turns of our individual paths, let us remember the words of poet, Rainer Maria Rilke, who said, "Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final." Trust that the highs and lows, the joys and sorrows, the victories and defeats are all part of the tapestry of life that makes your journey uniquely yours. It is in the quiet moments of reflection, the tough challenges that test our resolve, and the unexpected turns that lead us to new horizons that we discover our true strength, courage, and resilience. Believe in the power of your dreams, in the impact you are destined to create, and in the limitless possibilities that await you.

Well, is it? We are bombarded with images of seemingly perfect lives on social media, tempting us to chase after what we don't have rather than appreciating what we do. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if the key to a fulfilling life isn't in constantly seeking novelty, but rather in cultivating contentment with what we already have? "It's easy to chase what you don't have. But what about going after what really works and not all the new shiny objects? You don't need everything to have a life well lived. But you do have to live in order to have a life," says Kristianne Wargo, a life coach and motivational speaker. <ul> <li>What are you doing to go after your dreams? </li> <li>Are you constantly chasing new things? </li> <li>Are you trying to fit everything into one box? </li> <li>Are you saying yes to things that don't matter? </li> <li>Are you forgetting that you have the power to say no? </li> </ul> These are questions worth pondering as we navigate the temptations of comparison and envy. Most people come to realize, perhaps a little too late, that the grass is not always greener on the other side. It's often a mirage, a perception of what we lack rather than a true reflection of what we gain. "No matter which side of grass you take, it all requires work." ~ Kristianne Wargo True happiness and fulfillment come from within, not from external circumstances or possessions. So, how do you see the green grass on your side, even if it's not really green? The K.I.S.S. ~ Treat your obstacles as opportunities!   To resist the allure of the greener grass and stay focused on what truly matters, here are three things you can do: 1. Practice Gratitude: Take time each day to reflect on the things you are grateful for in your life. This simple practice can shift your focus from what you lack to what you have. For example, keeping a gratitude journal or starting each day with a gratitude meditation can help cultivate a sense of abundance and contentment. Use a JOY Jar to start your day with enthusiasm. 2. Set Clear Priorities: Define what is truly important to you and align your actions with your values. By setting clear priorities, you can avoid getting caught up in chasing after fleeting desires and stay focused on what ignites your passion. For instance, if spending quality time with your loved ones is a top priority, make sure to schedule regular family activities and protect that time from distractions. 3. Cultivate Mindfulness: Practice being present in the moment and appreciating the beauty of your current surroundings. Mindfulness can help you avoid getting caught up in comparison and worrying about what others have. Instead, it allows you to fully experience and enjoy the richness of your own life. Try incorporating mindfulness practices such as deep breathing exercises or mindful walks into your daily routine. As Kristianne Wargo aptly puts it, "It's more of a perception of what you can't have, rather than what you actually get." "Stay grounded in the reality of your own life and appreciate the true beauty of the grass beneath your feet. Remember, the grass is greener where you water it." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, next time you find yourself lured by the idea of greener pastures, take a moment to pause and appreciate the lushness of your own lawn. After all, true abundance is found not in constantly seeking more, but in embracing and nurturing what you already have. "Be present. Be incredible.

But is your mind, body, and spirit ready for it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes, we set the table for what we expect or know, leaving the possibilities buried deep within our own doubts and insecurities. But with God, anything is possible (Matthew 19:26). In a world where uncertainty seems to reign supreme, finding that  comfort and confidence do not come from what you know, yet whose you are.  "Walk by faith, not by sight" ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7 The K.I.S.S. ~ Put your YES on the table!   In Jeremiah 29:11, it is written, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." This is your reminder that God has a divine plan for you, His GPS (God's Positioning System) serving as a compass, guiding you toward a path filled with promise, purpose, passion, and presence. Walking by faith, not by sight, requires a leap of trust—a willingness to let go of our fears and doubts in exchange for God's divine guidance. Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us to, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." Choosing to put your YES on the table is an act of unwavering trust in God's plan for your life. It is an acknowledgment that His design far surpasses your own limitations and that by surrendering to His will, you open yourself up to blessings beyond measure. In a world filled with distractions and temptations, it can be easy to lose sight of the path set before us. Romans 12:2 reminds us, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." Choosing to say YES to God's plan for our lives requires courage, faith, and a deep-rooted belief that His intentions for us are far greater than we could ever imagine.

But is your mind, body, and spirit ready for it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes, we set the table for what we expect or know, leaving the possibilities buried deep within our own doubts and insecurities. But with God, anything is possible (Matthew 19:26). In a world where uncertainty seems to reign supreme, finding that  comfort and confidence do not come from what you know, yet whose you are.  "Walk by faith, not by sight" ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7 The K.I.S.S. ~ Put your YES on the table!   In Jeremiah 29:11, it is written, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." This is your reminder that God has a divine plan for you, His GPS (God's Positioning System) serving as a compass, guiding you toward a path filled with promise, purpose, passion, and presence. Walking by faith, not by sight, requires a leap of trust—a willingness to let go of our fears and doubts in exchange for God's divine guidance. Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us to, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." Choosing to put your YES on the table is an act of unwavering trust in God's plan for your life. It is an acknowledgment that His design far surpasses your own limitations and that by surrendering to His will, you open yourself up to blessings beyond measure. In a world filled with distractions and temptations, it can be easy to lose sight of the path set before us. Romans 12:2 reminds us, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." Choosing to say YES to God's plan for our lives requires courage, faith, and a deep-rooted belief that His intentions for us are far greater than we could ever imagine. So, why not put your YES on the table? Show up for what God has divinely designed for you, and watch as He leads you toward a future filled with hope, purpose, and unending grace. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Being present and connected in a marriage requires intentional effort and prioritizing each other. Daily is better than weekly. "You can't build a loving relationship without being present." ~ Kristianne Wargo Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But somehow, for some reason, couples think a great marriage just happens.  You and I both know that's not the case. In fact, a great marriage always requires good work. So, what can you do to build a strong marriage? The K.I.S.S. ~ Strengthen your attraction!   Here are three actionable steps to enhance your marriage and strengthen your connection on a daily basis. 1. Communicate Openly and Honestly Effective communication is key to a healthy marriage. Take time each day to talk to your spouse, sharing your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This could include discussing your day, your dreams, or even your fears. Listening attentively and empathetically to your partner is equally important. For example, make it a point to have a 'check-in' conversation every evening before bed. Share one highlight of your day and one challenge you faced. This simple practice fosters communication and emotional intimacy. Additionally, schedule regular 'date nights' where you can focus solely on each other without distractions from work or technology. "Honest communication builds trust and intimacy in a marriage. It's the foundation of a strong relationship." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Prioritize Quality Time Together Spending quality time together strengthens the bond between spouses and creates lasting memories. Find activities that you both enjoy and make time for them regularly. This could be as simple as cooking a meal together, going for a walk, or watching a movie snuggled on the couch. Plan spontaneous gestures of love and appreciation to keep the romance alive. Surprise your partner with a heartfelt note, a small gift, or a spontaneous picnic in the park. These thoughtful acts show your spouse that they are valued and cherished. "Quality time is not about the quantity but the quality of moments shared together. It's in these moments that connections are deepened and love is nurtured." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Show Gratitude and Affection Expressing gratitude and affection towards your spouse reinforces the love and appreciation you have for each other. Regularly acknowledge the little things that your partner does and express gratitude for their presence in your life. Small gestures like saying "I love you," giving a hug, or holding hands can go a long way in affirming your bond. Create a gratitude journal where you both write down things you are grateful for about each other. This practice encourages a positive outlook and cultivates a spirit of thankfulness within the relationship. Remember to celebrate milestones, anniversaries, and achievements together to honor your journey as a couple. "Gratitude and affection are the fuel that keeps the flame of love burning in a marriage. Expressing love in words and actions strengthens the foundation of your relationship." ~ Kristianne Wargo Ultimately, daily investments in your marriage yield greater rewards than occasional grand gestures. By incorporating these practices into your daily routine, you can deepen your connection with your spouse, build a thriving relationship, and create a lasting legacy of love and happiness.

It's about being present in your child's life. Yes, I'm talking to you, Mom and Dad. You have a crucial role in shaping your child's future, and it's time to step up and take responsibility.

They need you to be there, not just physically but emotionally as well. So, when life throws curveballs, don't be caught off guard. Be prepared, be present, and be proactive. Remember, actions speak louder than words. Your child is watching and learning from you every day. So, it's essential to practice what you preach. Be the role model your child deserves.

Tap into those memories and use them to connect with your own child. Here are three simple things you can do to stay connected with your child and keep them in the loop: 1. Spend Quality Time: Spend dedicated one-on-one time with your child regularly. Engage in activities they enjoy and use this time to bond and communicate openly. 2. Actively Listen: Pay attention to your child's thoughts, feelings, and concerns. Show genuine interest and empathy when they talk to you. Your child needs to feel heard and understood. 3. Consistent Communication: Keep the lines of communication open. Encourage your child to share their day with you, both the good and the bad. Be a safe space for them to express themselves without judgment. "It's your responsibility to pay attention to what is happening in your child's life. So when life happens, don't be shocked." ~ Kristianne Wargo Take charge, be proactive, and be the parent your child needs. Remember, being a parent is an honor and a responsibility.

Actively Listen: Pay attention to your child's thoughts, feelings, and concerns. Show genuine interest and empathy when they talk to you. Your child needs to feel heard and understood. 3. Consistent Communication: Keep the lines of communication open. Encourage your child to share their day with you, both the good and the bad. Be a safe space for them to express themselves without judgment. "It's your responsibility to pay attention to what is happening in your child's life. So when life happens, don't be shocked." ~ Kristianne Wargo Take charge, be proactive, and be the parent your child needs. Remember, being a parent is an honor and a responsibility. Embrace it wholeheartedly and watch your relationship with your child blossom. Here's to being present, being engaged, and most importantly, being there for your child. Don't be shocked, be prepared! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Life doesn't have to be filled with question marks, fear, and intimidation. However, it does require you to engage your day. Show up or be shipped out.  As you fill your life with endless distractions and relentless demands, it's easy to feel like you're merely a passenger on the rollercoaster of life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if you could shift gears and seize control of your day, instead of letting it control you? The key lies in one simple yet profound concept: engage your day! Each morning, as the sun peeks over the horizon and the day stretches out before you like a blank canvas, you have a choice. You can either passively drift through the hours, reacting to whatever comes your way, or you can actively engage with every moment, shaping your own story. Engaging your day isn't about having a rigid schedule or a detailed plan for every minute. It's about cultivating a mindset of intention and presence. It's about approaching each task, each interaction, each challenge with a sense of purpose and curiosity. It's about being fully present in the here and now to create your now, rather than getting lost in thoughts of the past or worries about the future. The K.I.S.S. ~ Engage your day!   When you engage your day, you take ownership of your time and your energy. You no longer allow external circumstances or other people's priorities to dictate your agenda. Instead, you tune into your own inner compass, making conscious choices that align with your values and goals. Engagement breeds empowerment. As you become more attuned to the rhythm of your day, you'll start to notice opportunities that were previously hidden in plain sight. You'll discover moments of joy and connection that might have passed you by if you were simply going through the motions. You'll feel a sense of aliveness that can only come from living intentionally. CHALLENGE: How can you start engaging your day? Begin by setting an intention each morning. Take a few moments to reflect on what you want to create, experience, or learn during the hours ahead. It could be as simple as "I want to approach today with curiosity and openness" or as specific as "I want to complete that project I've been putting off." Throughout the day, check in with yourself regularly. Are you being mindful of your choices and actions, or are you on autopilot? Are you fully present in your conversations and tasks, or are you distracted by the chatter of your mind? By bringing awareness to your thoughts and behaviors, you can course-correct in real time and stay aligned with your intention. Engaging your day is a practice, not a destination. Some days will flow effortlessly, while others will present unexpected challenges. The key is to meet each moment with an open heart and a curious mind, knowing that you have the power to shape your experience in ways big and small. As you engage your day, you'll discover a newfound sense of vitality. Your days will be infused with purpose and passion, and you'll no longer be a bystander in your own life. So, what are you waiting for? It's time to engage your day and watch as the magic unfolds. "Be present. Be incredible.

It's time to stop kicking yourself and hit the brakes on self-sabotage. You are made for more. And in order to start valuing your health, you have to break free from your own misery. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Self-sabotage can be insidious, creeping into our lives in subtle ways that hinder our growth and well-being. It's the voice in our heads that whispers doubt, the inertia that keeps us stuck in familiar but unfulfilling patterns. When you engage in self-sabotaging behaviors, you undermine your own progress and sabotage your chances of reaching your full potential. But why do we do this to ourselves? One reason for self-sabotage is a fear of change. Stepping out of our comfort zones and taking risks can be intimidating, even if those changes are positive. We may worry about failure, rejection, or the unknown, leading us to resist opportunities for growth. It's easier to stay in familiar, albeit unfulfilling, circumstances than to face the uncertainty of change. Another factor that contributes to self-sabotage is low self-esteem. When we don't believe in our own worth or capabilities, we may subconsciously sabotage our efforts to avoid confronting our insecurities. We undermine our own success because deep down, we may not feel deserving of happiness or achievement. Moreover, self-sabotage can stem from a lack of self-awareness. Without recognizing the patterns and behaviors that hold us back, we continue to repeat them, unaware of the negative impact they have on our lives. It's essential to cultivate mindfulness and reflection to identify self-sabotaging tendencies and work towards breaking free from them. Continuing to kick yourself through self-sabotage only leads to a cycle of misery and stagnation. You rob yourself of the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive, keeping you locked in patterns that prevent you from reaching your full potential. To break free from this destructive cycle, you must choose to stop kicking yourself and start championing your well-being. The K.I.S.S. ~ Champion your well-being!   If you're searching for transformation, and if you're still reading, it's clear change is on your mind. So, let's cut to the chase and make a conscious choice to prioritize progress over procrastination, starting with being 1% better today than you were yesterday. Let's delve into actionable steps to help you stop kicking yourself and begin thriving in your journey toward a healthier lifestyle. 1. Mindful Nutrition Choices When it comes to eating healthily, it's not just about what you eat but how you eat it. Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite, focusing on the flavors and textures of your food. Avoid distractions like screens or work during meals to better tune into your body's hunger and fullness cues. Remember, it's not just about the food on your plate but the experience of nourishing your body. "Don't eat junk food alone." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Prioritize Physical Movement Exercise shouldn't feel like a punishment but a celebration of what your body can do. Find an activity that brings you joy, whether it's dancing, hiking, or yoga. Instead of focusing on intense workouts for hours on end, aim for consistency and enjoyment in your movement routine. Schedule regular breaks during your workday for a quick stretching session or a brisk walk around the block. "Small bursts of activity can add up to significant health benefits." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Cultivate a Positive Mindset Take your thoughts captive. Your thoughts can shape your reality, so why not choose to uplift yourself with affirmations and gratitude? Start each day with positive intentions and affirmations to set the tone for a fulfilling day ahead. Now, don't lie to yourself; be honest. Practice self-compassion, though, and acknowledge your accomplishments, no matter how small they may seem. Surround yourself with a supportive community that encourages your growth and celebrates your progress. "Choose hard over easy, because when you're stretched, you're strengthened." ~ Kristianne Wargo True growth often lies outside our comfort zones. By embracing challenges and committing to small, consistent intentional improvements, you make a way for a healthier and happier you. So, stop kicking yourself and start championing your well-being today. "Be present. Be incredible.

Why do you keep burning the candle at both ends? At some point, you need to slow the hustle. How do you really feel when you wake up in the morning? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Are you finding that what everyone else wants gets more attention than what you need? Life doesn't have to be an "all-in" effect. The hustle and bustle really should be left to Christmas. You know, the last-minute shopping for gifts and food, and prepping for the visit of family and friends. However, that's the life we live every day!!  We are being programmed to be busy, even if it's mindless. Think about social media and reels. Then, you've got YouTube.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Slow the hustle!   You have got to put the brakes on, and use your head. Stop letting technology and everyone else tell you what's right for you! At some point, when you wake up, ya gotta put on your big girl panties and set the stage for the life you want to live.  Yes, you have to live responsibly. You have to pay your bills, take care of the family, and make a legitimate income. But that doesn't mean you allow yourself to be walked all over. That doesn't mean that you don't have boundaries. That doesn't mean that you don't have goals and dreams. You were created on purpose, for a heavenly and earthly purpose. Don't let others tell you differently. You get to decide.  However, in order for you to decide, you have to slow the hustle. Or you will miss what's right in front of you! Picture this: you wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and energized, ready to take on the day. Instead of immediately reaching for your phone to check emails and social media notifications, you take a few moments to breathe deeply, savoring the stillness and quiet of the early morning. You set an intention for the day ahead, focusing on what truly matters to you and what will bring a smile to your heart. As you go about your day, you approach each task with mindfulness and presence. Instead of multitasking and rushing through your to-do list, you give each activity your full attention, savoring the process and finding joy in the journey. You prioritize self-care and mental well-being, making time for rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation for your mind, body, and spirit.

Are you finding that what everyone else wants gets more attention than what you need? Life doesn't have to be an "all-in" effect. The hustle and bustle really should be left to Christmas. You know, the last-minute shopping for gifts and food, and prepping for the visit of family and friends. However, that's the life we live every day!!  We are being programmed to be busy, even if it's mindless. Think about social media and reels. Then, you've got YouTube.

And fear holds you back from living your dream. What if you could learn how to overcome what you don't know, so you can do what you're meant to do? You are made for more! People fight fear daily.

No overthinking or overwhelming my thoughts. Simply looking at what needs to be done next. That breeds clarity in the to-do list, because there isn't one. It's simply doing what's next, and then rinse and repeat.

Don't try to make things worse than they are. Don't try to make things more complicated. Don't try to over-dramatize life. Do what's next! 2. CLARITY Know where you are going. Clarity is your internal battery for your GPS system. If you know what you want, then you know what's next. And that gives you a simple next step. No complications. Just clarity. 3. ACTION Take A.I.M on what's next. Action ignites motivation. This is what keeps you going. Instead of fussing over how much you have to do, go do it! There are no excuses or thoughts to bog you down.

In a world full of distractions and uncertainties, it can be easy to get caught up in the past, letting it dictate today which affects our tomorrow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Bible verse Philippians 3:13-14 serves as a powerful reminder to keep moving forward, focusing on the journey ahead rather than being stuck in what has already transpired. "If you're always focusing on what transpired yesterday, there won't be any transactions tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo The apostle Paul's words resonate with a timeless truth that applies to people from all walks of life. He acknowledges that he has not yet reached his ultimate goal, but he remains steadfast in his pursuit, determined to win the prize that God has set before him. His mindset of resilience, perseverance, and unwavering faith is the lighthouse for those seeking to navigate the challenges of life. Be encouraged to let go of past regrets, failures, and disappointments that may hinder your progress. Instead, fix your gaze on the future, embracing the divine purpose here on earth that awaits you. The call to "press on toward the goal" is a call to action, a call to step out in faith and trust that God is leading us toward something more significant. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Win the prize!   For many, the idea of letting go of the past can seem impossible. It requires a willingness to confront your fears, insecurities, and doubts head-on. It demands that you set aside your excuses and take ownership of your journey. But in doing so, you open yourself up to a world of Heavenly possibilities, where God's plan unfolds in ways you could have never imagined. So, as we reflect on what Paul wrote, be inspired to break free from the chains of yesterday and embrace the promise of a better tomorrow. Seize each new day as an opportunity to grow, learn, and evolve. Trust in God's divine timing and guidance, knowing that He has a purpose for you that is waiting to be fulfilled. May you find the courage to leave what isn't yours to take today, so you can take A.I.M. on what comes, Lord willing, tomorrow, and courageously accept God's adventure for you. There, in the journey ahead, win the prize for which God has called you heavenward in Christ Jesus – a life lived in alignment with His will and a soul at peace in His loving embrace. "Be present.

In a world full of distractions and uncertainties, it can be easy to get caught up in the past, letting it dictate today which affects our tomorrow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Bible verse Philippians 3:13-14 serves as a powerful reminder to keep moving forward, focusing on the journey ahead rather than being stuck in what has already transpired. "If you're always focusing on what transpired yesterday, there won't be any transactions tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo The apostle Paul's words resonate with a timeless truth that applies to people from all walks of life. He acknowledges that he has not yet reached his ultimate goal, but he remains steadfast in his pursuit, determined to win the prize that God has set before him. His mindset of resilience, perseverance, and unwavering faith is the lighthouse for those seeking to navigate the challenges of life. Be encouraged to let go of past regrets, failures, and disappointments that may hinder your progress. Instead, fix your gaze on the future, embracing the divine purpose here on earth that awaits you. The call to "press on toward the goal" is a call to action, a call to step out in faith and trust that God is leading us toward something more significant. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Win the prize!   For many, the idea of letting go of the past can seem impossible. It requires a willingness to confront your fears, insecurities, and doubts head-on. It demands that you set aside your excuses and take ownership of your journey. But in doing so, you open yourself up to a world of Heavenly possibilities, where God's plan unfolds in ways you could have never imagined. So, as we reflect on what Paul wrote, be inspired to break free from the chains of yesterday and embrace the promise of a better tomorrow. Seize each new day as an opportunity to grow, learn, and evolve. Trust in God's divine timing and guidance, knowing that He has a purpose for you that is waiting to be fulfilled. May you find the courage to leave what isn't yours to take today, so you can take A.I.M. on what comes, Lord willing, tomorrow, and courageously accept God's adventure for you. There, in the journey ahead, win the prize for which God has called you heavenward in Christ Jesus – a life lived in alignment with His will and a soul at peace in His loving embrace. "Be present.

While you might say 'sorry,' a whisper screams loudly in your head, "Sorry, not sorry."  But what toll does this subtle scoreboard mentality take on a relationship? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And how can we shift this paradigm to foster growth and authentic connection within our unions? How do you say you're sorry? "Sorry is not just a word; it's an action!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Make 'sorry' an action!   Here are three vital steps a spouse can take to truly understand the essence of saying sorry, and to align actions with intentions: 1. Embrace Vulnerability: Rather than viewing apologies as a sign of weakness or surrender, consider them as the ultimate display of vulnerability and strength within a relationship. "Apologies pave the way for genuine communication and connection between spouses." ~ Kristianne Wargo For instance, when addressing a past mistake, instead of offering a generic apology, delve deeper into the emotions behind the action. By articulating feelings and acknowledging their impact on your partner, you can lay the foundation for authentic reconciliation. 2. Practice Active Listening: Apologies lose their efficacy when NOT accompanied by active listening. Mirroring your partner's sentiments and validating their feelings can transform a superficial apology into a meaningful exchange. "Listening is the bridge that connects two hearts." ~ Kristianne Wargo Take the time to sincerely listen to your partner's perspective without interruptions or defensiveness. By demonstrating empathy and understanding, you can enhance the healing power of your apology and establish a mutual sense of respect within the relationship. 3. Cultivate Forgiveness: True apologies and forgiveness are intertwined in the intricate tapestry of relationships. In the context of marital conflicts, forgiveness plays a pivotal role in moving beyond grievances and building a foundation of trust. By actively practicing forgiveness, both spouses can liberate themselves from the shackles of resentment and foster a climate of empathy and grace in their relationship. "Forgiveness is not a one-time act, but a continuous choice to release resentment, embrace reconciliation, and build trust." ~ Kristianne Wargo The art of saying sorry transcends mere words; it embodies a profound commitment to vulnerability, empathy, and forgiveness. By embracing these principles in our interactions with our spouses, we get to escape the confines of keeping score and cultivate a marriage grounded in mutual understanding and growth. "Authentic apologies are not merely spoken – they are felt, understood, and lived well." Strive to embody the essence of real apologies in your marriage, where saying sorry is not a mere phrase but a heartfelt expression of love and respect. "Be present. Be incredible.

In today's society, there seems to be a shift towards being more of a friend to your child rather than a responsible parent. Is tough love still relevant? Is tough love really effective in shaping a child's character and future? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    "It's natural for parents to want to be their child's friend, but tough love means guiding them towards becoming who they were created to be." ~ Kristianne Wargo  It's striking that balance between showing love and providing discipline. Tough love is not about being harsh or unkind to your child. It is about setting boundaries, instilling values, and teaching important life lessons. "Children need structure and guidance to thrive in the world. Tough love helps them develop resilience and character." ~ Kristianne Wargo Parenting with tough love involves showing compassion, grace, and discipline in equal measures. Compassion allows you to connect with your child on an emotional level, understanding their struggles and joys. Grace provides forgiveness and acceptance, creating a safe space for growth. Discipline sets boundaries and expectations, teaching responsibility and accountability. "Walking the fine line between being a friend and a parent can be challenging, but it is essential for your child's development." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Walk the fine line!   And that fine line is the balance between love and discipline, tough love--And that's where parents can raise children who are confident, resilient, and compassionate individuals. 1. STRONG VALUES Teaching them the importance of honesty, respect, and empathy builds a foundation for ethical decision-making. Instill moral principles and ethics in children from a young age. Parents can lead by example and reinforce these values through daily interactions and activities. Example: Encouraging a child to apologize when they have done something wrong teaches them the value of accountability and respect for others. Praise them when they show kindness to a classmate or share their toys, reinforcing the importance of empathy and generosity. 2. EXCEPTIONAL CONFIDENCE Encouraging them to believe in themselves and their abilities fosters self-assurance and ambition, which gives them reassurance when they question themselves between their two ears. Parents can help boost their child's self-esteem by providing encouragement, celebrating their achievements, and offering constructive feedback. Encouraging them to try new things and embrace challenges can help develop a growth mindset and resilience. Example: If a child expresses interest in joining a sports team but feels nervous about trying out, parents can support them by attending practices, cheering them on, and reminding them of their strengths. By empowering them to face their fears and take risks, parents can help build their confidence and courage. 3. RIGOROUS RHYTHMS  Establishing routines and boundaries creates a sense of security, structure, and stability, nurturing a sense of discipline and responsibility. Example: Creating a daily routine that includes designated study time, outdoor playtime, family meals, and bedtime rituals can help children feel secure and grounded. Consistency in these rhythms allows children to anticipate and prepare for each part of their day, reducing stress and promoting a sense of order in their lives. "Parenting is a journey that requires patience, understanding, and unwavering love. Tough love may not always be easy, but it is a powerful tool in shaping your child's future." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing tough love with compassion and discipline, parents can empower their children to become who they are created to be and thrive in a complex world. Tough love remains a valuable and effective parenting strategy in nurturing well-rounded and resilient children. By blending love, discipline, and guidance, parents can cultivate a strong foundation for their child's future success and happiness. Embrace tough love with an open heart and a clear vision for your child's growth and development. "Parenting with tough love means guiding your child with a firm hand and a gentle heart." - Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

Instill moral principles and ethics in children from a young age. Parents can lead by example and reinforce these values through daily interactions and activities. Example: Encouraging a child to apologize when they have done something wrong teaches them the value of accountability and respect for others. Praise them when they show kindness to a classmate or share their toys, reinforcing the importance of empathy and generosity. 2. EXCEPTIONAL CONFIDENCE Encouraging them to believe in themselves and their abilities fosters self-assurance and ambition, which gives them reassurance when they question themselves between their two ears. Parents can help boost their child's self-esteem by providing encouragement, celebrating their achievements, and offering constructive feedback. Encouraging them to try new things and embrace challenges can help develop a growth mindset and resilience. Example: If a child expresses interest in joining a sports team but feels nervous about trying out, parents can support them by attending practices, cheering them on, and reminding them of their strengths. By empowering them to face their fears and take risks, parents can help build their confidence and courage. 3. RIGOROUS RHYTHMS  Establishing routines and boundaries creates a sense of security, structure, and stability, nurturing a sense of discipline and responsibility. Example: Creating a daily routine that includes designated study time, outdoor playtime, family meals, and bedtime rituals can help children feel secure and grounded. Consistency in these rhythms allows children to anticipate and prepare for each part of their day, reducing stress and promoting a sense of order in their lives. "Parenting is a journey that requires patience, understanding, and unwavering love. Tough love may not always be easy, but it is a powerful tool in shaping your child's future." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing tough love with compassion and discipline, parents can empower their children to become who they are...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1051</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,confessions,dads,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,relationships,routines,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/7a1e503f6e42bc80ee093e32f1a397d5.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3411 Think Inside the Box</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3411-think-inside-the-box--61270360</link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes, we can get entangled with all the shiny new objects: the squirrel syndrome.

Well, what about what your body needs? Take the time to research and renew because your body needs it. Living a healthy lifestyle is a journey that many aspire to embark on, yet the abundance of information available can often lead to confusion and overwhelm. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Picture this: you've tried countless diets, workout plans, and wellness trends, only to find yourself back at square one, unsure of what step to take next. The cycle of trial and error can be discouraging, leaving you feeling defeated and uncertain about how to proceed on your path to better health. But what if I told you that there is a way to break free from this cycle and discover a sustainable approach to healthy living that is personalized to your needs? Would you be willing? It's time for some R 'n R! The K.I.S.S. ~ Research and renew!   1. Self-Reflection   Take a moment to reflect on your past health and wellness endeavors. What has worked for you in the past? What hasn't? By analyzing your successes and failures, you can tailor your future approach to better suit your needs. Perhaps you discovered that certain dietary restrictions left you feeling deprived and unmotivated, or that high-intensity workouts caused more harm than good to your body. These reflections are not meant to dwell on past failures but rather to learn from them and use that knowledge to shape a more effective plan moving forward. For example, if you found that meal prepping worked well for you in the past, consider incorporating it back into your routine.  "Self-reflection is key to understanding what truly works for your body and mind." - Kristianne Wargo. 2. Explore New Options    Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and explore new avenues for health and wellness. Research different exercise routines, diets, medical advancements, naturopath programs, or mindfulness practices that you may have never considered before. Trying something new can reignite your passion for living a healthy life. Imagine delving deep into your journey and uncovering hidden gems of wisdom that have the power to transform your health for the better. Through introspection and analysis, you can tailor your approach to healthy living in a way that resonates with your unique lifestyle and preferences. For instance, if you've always been curious about Pilates but have never tried it, sign up for a class or watch tutorials online. "Your body is a reflection of your choices, and by understanding what truly nourishes and uplifts it, you can pave the way for lasting vitality and well-being." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Personalized Approach    Remember that everyone's body is unique, and what works for one person may not work for another. Focus on creating a personalized plan that is tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Whether it's working with a nutritionist, naturopath, personal trainer, or wellness coach, seeking professional guidance can help you develop a customized health regimen. "Your health journey should be as unique as you are. Embrace your individuality and tailor your approach accordingly." - Kristianne Wargo. So, I invite you to pause, take a breath, and dive into the depths of your health journey with a renewed sense of purpose and determination. Your quest for optimal health is not just about following the latest trends or conforming to societal norms; it's about honoring your mind, body, and spirit in a way that is authentic and sustainable. Embrace who you are and who you are becoming. Because you matter, it's time to create your now! "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you reframe this as an essential part of who you are and who you are becoming? Embracing the idea of doing what you want isn't about disregarding responsibilities or consequences.

Life is too short to limit ourselves to what is expected of us. By daring to do what you want, you open yourself up to a multitude of possibilities and experiences that can enrich your life in ways you never imagined. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what you want!   It takes courage to break free from the status quo and chart your own path. It requires stepping out of your comfort zone and embracing uncertainty. But in doing so, you give yourself the opportunity to discover your true potential and create a life that is fulfilling and authentic. So, dare to dream big. Dare to take risks. Dare to listen to your heart and follow your passions. Because when you do what you want, you not only honor yourself, but you also inspire others to do the same. And in that ripple effect, lies the beauty of living a life that is truly yours. "Be present. Be incredible.

It's not going to happen crying in the shower. It's not going to happen complaining about all you have to do. It's not going to happen cursing at the drivers. It's not going to happen cringing about what you can't do. Why not take it little by little? You've got what it takes. But just as excuses lead you in one direction, so does choosing actions to go in another direction. You get to decide, little by little! The K.I.S.S. ~ Little by little!   What do you want out of life? What are you wanting less of? What are you wanting more of? 1. Create a Clear Vision Define your dream with clarity, painting a detailed picture of where you want to go and what you want to achieve. "Dream big but start small. Break down your vision into achievable steps." ~ Kristianne Wargo By setting a clear goal, you can better define the necessary actions needed to turn your dreams into reality. 2. Develop Consistent Habits Success is not just about making grand gestures; it's about the daily grind and grit, and the commitment to progress. "It's the little daily wins that lead to the big victories." ~ Kristianne Wargo Establishing positive habits and routines that align with your goals can significantly contribute to your success journey. Whether it's dedicating time each day to work on your dream or taking proactive steps toward self-improvement, consistency is key. 3. Embrace Resilience Chasing your dreams is not always smooth sailing. There will be setbacks, challenges, and moments of doubt along the way. However, resilience is the key to overcoming these obstacles. "Embrace the setbacks as opportunities for a comeback, to learn and grow. Your resilience will determine your success." ~ Kristianne Wargo By staying resilient in the face of adversity, you can navigate through life's uncertainties and emerge stronger on the other side. When you're stretched, you're strengthened. Remember, success is not a destination but a journey. As you work towards your dreams, keep this in mind.

The whispers of inadequacy can become deafening, drowning out the faint voice within that knows the truth – You are enough. Life's challenges may leave us feeling lost and disconnected from our purpose, but it is in these moments of deep struggle that our faith is truly tested. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The book of Psalms reminds us that "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble" (Psalm 46:1). In the midst of chaos, when hope seems like a distant memory, it is important to hold on to this truth – God is with you, guiding you through the storm. The Apostle Paul's words in Romans 8:38-39 offer a powerful reminder of God's unconditional love for us: "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." You may feel separated, but you need to know and hear that you are not! The K.I.S.S. ~ You are enough!   Because God is enough! He chose you, and chooses you every day! It is essential to remember that our worth is not defined by our circumstances or by the world's standards. Our worth is rooted in God's unchanging love and grace. As the prophet Isaiah writes, "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10). When discouragement creeps in and despair threatens to overwhelm us, let us cling to the promise that God's love is greater than our shortcomings and failures. Embrace the truth that you are enough, not because of what you do or achieve, but because of whose you are in the eyes of your Creator. As you navigate through the valleys of life, hold on to the knowledge that you are a beloved child of God, worthy of love and belonging. May this truth anchor your soul in the midst of life's storms. May you be rooted in His truth that He loves you so much that He sent His one and only Son to die on the cross for you (John 3:16). And may the peace that passes all understanding be the assurance that you are indeed enough, because God is enough! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It is essential to remember that our worth is not defined by our circumstances or by the world's standards. Our worth is rooted in God's unchanging love and grace. As the prophet Isaiah writes, "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10). When discouragement creeps in and despair threatens to overwhelm us, let us cling to the promise that God's love is greater than our shortcomings and failures. Embrace the truth that you are enough, not because of what you do or achieve, but because of whose you are in the eyes of your Creator. As you navigate through the valleys of life, hold on to the knowledge that you are a beloved child of God, worthy of love and belonging. May this truth anchor your soul in the midst of life's storms. May you be rooted in His truth that He loves you so much that He sent His one and only Son to die on the cross for you (John 3:16). And may the peace that passes all understanding be the assurance that you are indeed enough, because God is enough! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

There is love, but it doesn't feel the same. The spark is so-so. The kisses are little pecks. The time in bed is just alright. It's time to choose love over numbness.

And when you are in the moment, you are exhausted and flustered because the day hasn't gone as well as it should have. Why do you let the results of your day influence the intimacy of your marriage? It's understandable that life gets in the way. But life will always be life. There will be issues with the kids, bills to pay, and responsibilities at home and in your community. There will be times in your career that interfere with what you want to do. Vacation may not always be an option. Health will challenge you at some point, whether weight or illness.  However, that doesn't mean you leave behind your spouse. Your vows were for better or worse. It makes absolutely no sense to numb out because life happens to you. Take life and run with conviction to choose love regardless of the life's results. So what can you do to choose love over numbness? Reignite the flames of love. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reignite the flames of love!   The once fiery passion may dwindle into a little more than routine pecks and lukewarm embraces. Yet, you can break free from the numbness and reignite the flames of love. The complacency does not have to continue. You get to champion your marriage. Don't settle. When you fell in love, you didn't settle. So why start now? In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's all too easy for exhaustion and frustration to seep into the cracks of a marriage, dampening the flame that once burned brightly between two hearts. But why should the challenges of the day dictate the level of intimacy between partners? What does it look like to reignite the flames of love? 1. SHAKE UP THE NUMBNESS Prioritize Quality Time Make a conscious effort to carve out dedicated quality time for each other amidst the chaos of everyday life. Whether it's a weekly date night, a spontaneous weekend getaway, or simply snuggling on the couch without distractions, prioritizing quality time together strengthens the bond between partners. "Love is a choice. Love is a verb. It's choosing to prioritize and take action in  your relationship above all else, even when life gets chaotic." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. INFUSE WITH KINDNESS Communicate Openly and Honestly Effective communication lies at the heart of any successful relationship. Take the time to truly actively listen to each other, express your feelings openly, and address any issues that may be causing distance between you. Honest communication fosters understanding and allows both of you to feel heard and valued. "Don't let silence breed space. Speak your heart, listen intently, and let love bridge the gap." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. INTENTIONALLY LIGHT THE FLAME Reignite the Passion Don't let the flame of passion flicker out in your marriage. Find creative ways to reignite the spark, whether it's through spontaneous gestures, heartfelt gestures of love, or exploring new experiences together. Keep the element of surprise alive and nurture the physical and emotional intimacy between you. "Passion fuels love. Let spontaneity and romance breathe life into your marriage, keeping the flames burning bright." ~ Kristianne Wargo When you choose love over numbness, it will require intention, effort, and a willingness to prioritize your marriage above all else. As you take the time to be together, that's where the numbness fades, and you get to play! "Be present. Be incredible.

In fact, you have probably thought more than once this week, "Am I good enough?", or "Why should I be the one to do this?" This is real life, and know that you do not have to run from real life. You can embrace it with bravery because you are willing to do what needs to be done now, so you can create your now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Luck follows the brave!   So, where are your challenges? What are your hang-ups? Where do you need to say NO, so your YES can be definitive? Life doesn't have to derail you. In fact, you get to put the rails on life and lead according to your dreams, values, beliefs; your mission and vision for life! I hope you hearing this excites your heart. Luck follows the brave! Why not show up courageous every day? Be the one who you are becoming every day. "You set the tone of your day. You set the rules on how you play. You catch the wind to feel its sway. You are the one who must show up today!" ~ Kristianne Wargo If you want something different than where you are right now, then know the work must happen with consistency, compassion, and conviction, igniting the flame within.

Getting stuck in what comes easy can derail us from what needs to happen today. Rise up! Luck follows the brave!! Why do we always play the second-guessing game. It's so easy to bamboozle yourself in overthinking to the point of overwhelming what to do next. When really all that needs to be done is the next thing.

In fact, you have probably thought more than once this week, "Am I good enough?", or "Why should I be the one to do this?" This is real life, and know that you do not have to run from real life. You can embrace it with bravery because you are willing to do what needs to be done now, so you can create your now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Luck follows the brave!   So, where are your challenges? What are your hang-ups? Where do you need to say NO, so your YES can be definitive? Life doesn't have to derail you. In fact, you get to put the rails on life and lead according to your dreams, values, beliefs; your mission and vision for life! I hope you hearing this excites your heart. Luck follows the brave! Why not show up courageous every day? Be the one who you are becoming every day. "You set the tone of your day. You set the rules on how you play. You catch the wind to feel its sway. You are the one who must show up today!" ~ Kristianne Wargo If you want something different than where you are right now, then know the work must happen with consistency, compassion, and conviction, igniting the flame within.

But in the moments where you stray from your healthy living, is it something that you quickly recover from or do you remain stuck? What are you dwelling on? Here's the thing--You can dwell on the good, bad, or ugly. Any of it can lead you in one direction or another. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's 3 PM on a Wednesday, and you're eyeing that chocolate bar in your drawer. You've been eating clean for weeks, but today, the stress got to you. In the split second when you decide to indulge, what goes through your mind? Is it guilt, self-loathing, or acceptance? What are you dwelling on in that moment of weakness? In the journey of healthy living, it's not always smooth sailing. There are bumps, detours, and sometimes full-blown roadblocks. But it's not about the slip-ups; it's about what you do next. Do you wallow in self-pity or use it as a learning experience to propel yourself forward? You have to understand what you are dwelling on in order to move in a different direction. If that is you, then you have got to break the silence! The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the silence!   Break the silence on what you're hiding from yourself or others. And it doesn't have to be bad.  You have got to own what is good, bad, and ugly. What is serving you and what isn't. This is the only way change can occur. But it doesn't come without a cost. Right? <ul> <li>Sometimes, you have to hit a brick wall.</li> <li>Sometimes, you have to fail more than you succeed.</li> <li>Sometimes, you have to see it to believe it.</li> <li>Sometimes, you have to try it before you buy it.</li> <li>Sometimes, you just have to own it.</li> </ul> Whatever you are dwelling on, break the silence. 1. Reflect and Pivot: Take a moment to reflect on your actions without judgment. Understand the triggers that led to your deviation from healthy habits. "It's not about the mistake; it's about the recovery." ~ Kristianne Wargo Use this setback as an opportunity to pivot towards a more mindful approach to wellness. 2. Create Tiny Habits: Shift your focus from dwelling on the negative and look to something that inhabits your healthy living. What can you do that's easy. Set yourself up for success by allowing yourself to have more wins than losses.  3. Set Clear Intentions: Define your goals by being honest and set clear intentions for your health and well-being. Whether it's committing to regular exercise, mindful eating, or self-care practices, clarity in your intentions can guide you towards sustainable lifestyle changes. "You have to understand what you are dwelling on in order to move in a different direction." ~ Kristianne Wargo In the realm of healthy living, it's not about perfection but progress. By breaking the silence, it gives you permission to know who you are and where you are right now, so you have clear direction on who you are becoming and where you are going. You get to empower yourself! "Don't let a moment define you. Let it refine you." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, the next time you reach for that chocolate bar, pause, reflect, and choose to dwell on the path that aligns with your well-being. "Be present.

How can you go from "I'm not good enough" to no matter what happens next? Moments of defeat can easily eclipse our enthusiasm and drown out our ambitions.

Where are you normally? In fact, what has been a pivotable point where you shut down instead of rising up? Did you notice that football is back?!? Just like pre-season football--the team thinks they are ready, only to find themselves up against a team they should win against, but lost miserably to. No matter what happens next. Or is it the next that we think--the "next" out of defeat, or the "next" as in, let's do this, next! It's not about the setback that truly matters, but how you come back and approach what comes next. "No matter what happens next, it is your response that defines your direction." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Define your direction!   "You get to decide your direction by your decision." ~ Kristianne Wargo And your decision is comprised of many actions. Depending on what you do, depends on the direction you will go. 1. Embrace the Power of Resilience: Resilience is the cornerstone of coming back from setbacks. Instead of dwelling on past failures, shift your focus to how you can learn and grow from them. As Thomas Edison once said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." "Every setback is an opportunity for a comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Cultivate a Positive Mindset: Your outlook on life plays a significant role in shaping your experiences. By maintaining a positive mindset, you can navigate through challenges with grace and optimism. In the words of Winston Churchill, "The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty." Focus on the possibilities that lie ahead, no matter what the current circumstances may be. 3. Set Goals and Take A.I.M.: Channel your energy and enthusiasm into setting specific, achievable goals that align with your aspirations. Break down your goals into manageable steps and take consistent action towards achieving them. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo We live in a world filled with uncertainties and obstacles, but your determination and perseverance pave the way for a brighter future. Remember, no matter what happens next, it's the NEXT that counts!! In other words, no matter what happens .... next!!! So, embrace the challenges, cultivate resilience, maintain a positive mindset, and take proactive steps toward your goals. Your journey is defined by how you navigate through the twists and turns of life, with the unwavering belief that no matter what happens ... next! "Be present. Be incredible.

The patterns of this world become our focus. What if we stopped the worry and looked to God for the answers? May hope begin to rise. In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to get caught up in a whirlwind of worries and uncertainties. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From looming deadlines to unexpected challenges, the weight of the world can often feel like a heavy burden on our shoulders. But what if, instead of succumbing to the overwhelming tide of anxiety, we turned our eyes towards a beacon of hope that transcends all earthly fears? There is a wellspring of wisdom and comfort in the Bible that reminds us of the power of faith over fear. In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus himself speaks of the futility of worry, urging His followers to, "33  But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." The verse emphasizes the importance of turning our concerns over to God, who knows our needs and cares for us deeply. The K.I.S.S. ~ May hope begin to rise!   The book of Psalms is also a treasure trove of hope-filled verses that remind us of God's faithfulness in the midst of chaos. Psalm 46:1 declares, "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." This passage serves as a poignant reminder that we can find solace and strength in the unwavering presence of God, even when the world around us seems to be in turmoil. So, how can we let hope rise in the midst of chaos? By anchoring our hearts in the promises of God's Word and leaning into the unshakeable truth of God's love for us. Through prayer and meditation on God's Word, we can cultivate a sense of peace that surpasses all understanding, allowing hope to bloom even in the darkest of times. As you navigate the uncertainties of life, may you cling to the words of Jesus in John 16:33, "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." Let these words be a guiding light in your every day towards embracing hope, trusting in the One who holds the whole world in His hands, including holding you!!  May hope begin to rise! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But unfortunately, our minds and actions don't always equate to accomplishing what is needed; when later becomes never. Think about all those honey to-dos that never seem to get done. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    All the excuses that give you a reason not to, because you don't have to feel guilty. But in reality, those to-dos just keep getting longer, and the list can become a wedge in the cracks that were created because of another incident. Being married means there are always instances or incidents. However, you don't have to live in the pretenses of not doing or holding out for the excuses. Instead, you can double down. The K.I.S.S. ~ Double D.O.W.N.!   It's easy to let things slide, especially in the realm of marriage. Procrastination can quickly become the norm, and before you know it, what was meant to turn into a "later" task has transformed into a permanent "never." Let's break this cycle with a strategic approach, where later becomes now, and never becomes a thing of the past. Hence, you get to double D.O.W.N.! D - Delegate "Two heads are better than one." - Unknown Delegate tasks between spouses to avoid the overwhelming feeling of having to do everything alone.

But unfortunately, our minds and actions don't always equate to accomplishing what is needed; when later becomes never. Think about all those honey to-dos that never seem to get done. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    All the excuses that give you a reason not to, because you don't have to feel guilty. But in reality, those to-dos just keep getting longer, and the list can become a wedge in the cracks that were created because of another incident. Being married means there are always instances or incidents. However, you don't have to live in the pretenses of not doing or holding out for the excuses. Instead, you can double down. The K.I.S.S. ~ Double D.O.W.N.!   It's easy to let things slide, especially in the realm of marriage. Procrastination can quickly become the norm, and before you know it, what was meant to turn into a "later" task has transformed into a permanent "never." Let's break this cycle with a strategic approach, where later becomes now, and never becomes a thing of the past. Hence, you get to double D.O.W.N.! D - Delegate "Two heads are better than one." - Unknown Delegate tasks between spouses to avoid the overwhelming feeling of having to do everything alone. From household chores to planning date nights, sharing responsibilities fosters teamwork and strengthens your bond.

But the crazy thing is parents get sucked in, too. At some point, you must love like you mean it. In a society dominated by social media and instant gratification, the role of parents in nurturing and guiding their children has become increasingly challenging. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The constant pressure to perform, be seen, and seek validation through likes and comments can easily lead us as parents astray as well. However, amidst this digital chaos, there remains a timeless truth: the importance of how to love like you mean it. As you navigate this ever-evolving landscape, it becomes crucial to resist the allure of superficial appearances and instead focus on cultivating genuine connections with your children. In a world where everything is on display, nurturing authentic relationships based on love, understanding, and respect is the most valuable gift you can offer. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nurture authentically!   "To effectively compete against the relentless technology and provide children with the emotional nourishment they need, parents must prioritize presence over presents and sincerity over screen time." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embodying values rooted in empathy, communication, and genuine affection, you can instill in your children a solid foundation of emotional intelligence and resilience. 1. Unplug and Connect: Take intentional breaks from technology to engage in meaningful interactions with your children. Create opportunities for quality time, whether it's playing a game together, sharing a meal, or simply having a heartfelt conversation. "In a world full of distractions, true love is found in the moments of undivided attention." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Lead by Example: Show your children the importance of authenticity and integrity by living out these values in your everyday life. Be transparent about your own struggles and successes, and encourage open communication within the family. By demonstrating vulnerability and empathy, then you can teach your children the power of genuine connections. 3. Empower Through Empathy: Foster a nurturing environment where emotions are acknowledged, discussed, and validated. Help your children develop emotional intelligence by teaching them to identify and express their feelings in a healthy way. "Love like you mean it begins with understanding and embracing the uniqueness of each individual in your family. Love them where they're at." ~ Kristianne Wargo Parenting in the digital age requires a conscious effort to prioritize authentic relationships and meaningful connections over superficial validation. By choosing to love like you mean it, you can empower your children to navigate the complexities of the modern world with grace, resilience, and a deep sense of self-worth. "In a world that demands perfection, let your love be the imperfect masterpiece that shapes a beautiful future." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

Take your thoughts captive, and don't let them stray to the point of being rude, disrespectful, and unkind. Condescending voices are muted.   What you have to say matters, whether it's in your own head, to the ones you love, or to those who cross your path. Speak the truth in love! CHALLENGE: What is one thing today you need to hear, but spoken in a manner that echoes so clear, with words of love and hope, that leave you inspired? Take your thoughts, write them down, and speak the truth in love! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's not fair that you've got this body. It's not fair that you have to work harder than others. It's not fair that the scale is not your friend. It's not fair. But that's not the life to live. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yes, life is unfair. Who really wants to have to work hard at things? But in reality, that is how it is. Life is hard. Life is not fair. YET--life can be AH-MAZING if you make the choice, and decide to take the next step, whatever that is. So how's that working for you? Have you actually decided on moving forward toward healthy living? Or are you putting it off until another Monday? Be honest! When you hear the echoes of "It's not fair," those are the moments of frustration, disappointment, and even defeat. Failure does not need to happen before you even try. Things may not always go your way, but how you respond to these perceived injustices in your head can define your path forward. So, how can we shift our mindset from dwelling on what's unfair to embracing the possibilities ahead? The K.I.S.S. ~ Shift your mindset!   You have gotta shift your mindset in order for your thoughts to direct your behaviors, which then become your actions, eventually turning into your habits. Healthy living habits are possible even when you think it's not fair! Here are three actionable steps to conquer the "it's not fair" scenario lingering in our minds: DO WHAT IT TAKES 1. Embrace Resilience: Instead of having these pity parties, build up your resilience to navigate through life's ups and downs. Understand that setbacks are not roadblocks; setbacks are detours for comebacks and opportunities. For instance, if you didn't lose those two pounds that week, instead of dwelling on what didn't work, recognize what did, and start from there. "Giving yourself constructive direction in the decision of your detour will expand your conviction to move forward with consistency." ~ Kristianne Wargo BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT IS 2. Practice Gratitude: You have to love your reflection. When you have moments of discontentment, you have to practice gratitude, which can shift your perspective toward positivity. Take time to appreciate the blessings in your life, no matter how small they may seem. It's not about what you don't have; it's about what you DO have! BE PRESENT IN YOUR ACTIONS 3. Take A.I.M. Rather than being paralyzed by the notion of unfairness, take proactive steps towards creating that healthy lifestyle you desire. Refine your goals, create a plan of action, and take incremental steps toward achieving them. Remember, progress is often born out of perseverance and determination. "Life can be AH-MAZING if you make the choice, and decide to take the next step, whatever that is. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When you look at the heartbeat of your life, the ability to adapt, grow, and create your now helps you face the challenges that will come every day. But when the echoes of "It's not fair" ring in the air, then you get to decide how you live your life and try. It's not fair, but here is why change begins with YOU! "Be present. Be incredible.

But what you believe matters more. When you believe, then you see. It's hard to go after what you want in life when your belief is less than. How can you do what you were created to do if you don't believe? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Belief is the foundation upon which dreams are built. It is the unwavering faith in yourself and your abilities that propels you forward, even in the face of adversity. As author Napoleon Hill once said, "What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve." Your belief sets the course for your actions and ultimately determines your success. How do you go after your dreams with the vigor and resolve when you fail or the results are not what you expected? Failure is not the opposite of success; it is a stepping stone on the path to success. Every setback, every disappointment is an opportunity to learn and grow. As motivational speaker Les Brown famously said, "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss it you will land among the stars." Believing in your dreams means believing in your ability to overcome obstacles and persevere in the face of adversity. Dreams come true when you take action on your thoughts. So what are you thinking? Are you believing you can do this? And what if it takes you not months but years to decades to accomplish? Patience and persistence are the keys to achieving your dreams. The road to success is not always easy, and there will be detours and roadblocks along the way. But if you stay true to your beliefs and keep moving forward, no goal is out of reach. "Believe in yourself and all that you are. You are capable of achieving greatness beyond your wildest dreams. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo At some point, your belief must be stronger than the feelings when you fail. Nothing can hold you back, at least not for more than a few hours or a day. So ready yourself to take the next step. The K.I.S.S. ~Take the next step!   Now understand: the way you chase your dreams will look different from the way I pursue mine. Think about what you do now, if anything. And what could you do differently? To deepen your belief, act smarter, and see what's possible, consider these three key steps: DEEPEN YOUR BELIEF 1. Surround yourself with positivity: Your environment plays a crucial role in shaping your beliefs. Surround yourself with people who support and uplift you, read inspiring books, and listen to motivational speeches. "You are the sum of the five people you hang out with." ~ Jim Rohn. Rohn emphasized the importance of surrounding yourself with positive influences and like-minded individuals who can inspire and support your personal growth and success. The people you choose to associate with have a significant impact on your mindset, behavior, and, ultimately, your achievements/failures. Keep in mind, positive influences will reinforce your belief in yourself and your dreams. ACT SMARTER 2. Take consistent A.I.M.: Belief without action is merely wishful thinking. Break down your goals into manageable steps and take consistent action towards them. Celebrate small victories along the way and use them as fuel to keep pushing forward. Action ignites motivation. Action breeds belief. And belief fuels action in a continuous cycle of growth and progress. SEE WHAT'S POSSIBLE 3. Visualize your success: Take time each day to visualize yourself achieving your goals. See yourself living the life of your dreams, feel the emotions of success, and believe in the reality of your vision. Visualization is a powerful tool that can strengthen your belief and keep you focused on your objectives. "When you believe, then you see." ~ Kristianne Wargo Your beliefs shape your reality, and with unwavering faith in yourself and your dreams, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Remember, the power of belief lies within you. Embrace it, nurture it, and watch as your dreams come true. "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It is the unwavering faith in yourself and your abilities that propels you forward, even in the face of adversity. As author Napoleon Hill once said, "What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve." Your belief sets the course for your actions and ultimately determines your success. How do you go after your dreams with the vigor and resolve when you fail or the results are not what you expected? Failure is not the opposite of success; it is a stepping stone on the path to success. Every setback, every disappointment is an opportunity to learn and grow. As motivational speaker Les Brown famously said, "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss it you will land among the stars." Believing in your dreams means believing in your ability to overcome obstacles and persevere in the face of adversity. Dreams come true when you take action on your thoughts. So what are you thinking? Are you believing you can do this? And what if it takes you not months but years to decades to accomplish? Patience and persistence are the keys to achieving your dreams. The road to success is not always easy, and there will be detours and roadblocks along the way. But if you stay true to your beliefs and keep moving forward, no goal is out of reach. "Believe in yourself and all that you are. You are capable of achieving greatness beyond your wildest dreams. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo At some point, your belief must be stronger than the feelings when you fail. Nothing can hold you back, at least not for more than a few hours or a day. So ready yourself to take the next step. The K.I.S.S. ~Take the next step!

Doing life is more than walking by faith, because we have to take steps daily and that gets in the way of our earthly emotions and feelings that linger. However, when you're experiencing chaos, challenges, or celebrations, what smooths out the rough edges is walking by faith, knowing that God does have your back.

How can you stay true to your promise of spending time together? How much time are you spending with your spouse? Is it as much as your first three years? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    For the majority of couples, this is not the case. You spend less time every year you remain married. However, in order to stay happily married (with work), you need to spend time together. We have been married now 31 years, been together for 34 1/2 years. That's a LONG time! But how much of that time has been spent together? That is really the question that we need to be asking ourselves. Because there is no way you can have a strong foundation in your marriage if you don't spend time together. So let's first look at some reasons why our time together is limited. The initial excitement and romance may dwindle amidst the responsibilities of life. A. Busy Schedules: Juggling work commitments, household responsibilities, children's activities, and social engagements can leave couples with little time for each other. Long work hours and demanding schedules can make it challenging to find moments of togetherness amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. B. Technology Distractions: In today's digital age, constant connectivity through smartphones, tablets, and social media can detract from quality time spent with a partner. As couples get absorbed in their screens, meaningful face-to-face interactions and bonding experiences may be put on the back burner. C. Different Priorities: Each partner may have their own individual priorities, interests, and goals, which can sometimes lead to conflicting schedules and diverging paths. Balancing personal ambitions with shared time as a couple requires compromise, understanding, and a willingness to prioritize the relationship. D. Lack of Communication: Poor communication or misaligned expectations can hinder couples from effectively planning and coordinating their time together. Assumptions about each other's needs and preferences can lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities for connection. E. Financial Constraints: Financial pressures and concerns about budgeting can limit the opportunities for couples to engage in activities that require spending money, such as dining out, attending events, or going on vacations. Strained finances can create added stress and barriers to quality time together. F. Parenting Responsibilities: Raising children adds another layer of complexity to spending time together as a couple. Parenting duties, childcare logistics, and the demands of nurturing a family can consume much of parents' time and energy, leaving little room for romantic or leisure activities. G. Relationship Struggles: Underlying issues within the relationship, such as unresolved conflicts, emotional distance, or lack of intimacy, can make it challenging for couples to prioritize spending time together. Relationship discord can create barriers to fostering connection and closeness. H. External Pressures: External stressors such as job insecurity, health concerns, family dynamics, or societal expectations can impact couples' ability to focus on their relationship and make time for shared experiences. These outside pressures can overshadow the importance of nurturing the marital bond. Navigating these challenges requires compassion, communication, and a mutual commitment to overcoming obstacles as a team. By acknowledging the various factors that can impede quality time together, couples can proactively address these issues and strengthen their relationship bonds. The K.I.S.S. ~ Just do it!   In the midst of the chaos, how can spouses hold true to their promise of spending meaningful time together? 1. Prioritize Chats: Effective communication is key to navigating the complexities of marriage. Psychologist Dr. John Gottman once said, "Staying connected and feeling close is important for marital satisfaction." Regularly check in with your spouse about your schedules, feelings, and needs. Make time for open and honest conversations to ensure that you are on the same page about your priorities and commitments. 2. Schedule Quality Time: Life can get busy, but it is essential to carve out dedicated time for each other. Relationship expert Esther Perel emphasizes the importance of quality over quantity, stating, "It's not the amount of time spent together, but the quality of the interactions that truly matters." Plan date nights, weekend getaways, or simple activities like cooking together or taking a walk in the park. By intentionally setting aside time for each other, you can nurture your connection and strengthen your bond. 3. Show Appreciation and Affection: Small gestures of love and appreciation can go a long way in reaffirming your commitment to each other. "In the busyness of life, don't forget to pause and show gratitude for your partner." ~ Kristianne Wargo Express your love through kind words, thoughtful gestures, and physical touch. Acts of kindness and affection can reignite the spark in your relationship and remind your spouse that they are cherished. In the midst of life's challenges, staying true to your promise of spending time together requires effort, intentionality, and a genuine commitment to nurturing your relationship. By prioritizing communication, scheduling quality time, and showing appreciation and affection, you can strengthen your bond and weather any storm that comes your way. Remember, marriage is a journey that requires both partners to actively invest in each other's happiness and well-being. "Be present. Be incredible.

How can you stay true to your promise of spending time together? How much time are you spending with your spouse? Is it as much as your first three years? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    For the majority of couples, this is not the case. You spend less time every year you remain married. However, in order to stay happily married (with work), you need to spend time together. We have been married now 31 years, been together for 34 1/2 years. That's a LONG time! But how much of that time has been spent together? That is really the question that we need to be asking ourselves. Because there is no way you can have a strong foundation in your marriage if you don't spend time together. So let's first look at some reasons why our time together is limited. The initial excitement and romance may dwindle amidst the responsibilities of life. A. Busy Schedules: Juggling work commitments, household responsibilities, children's activities, and social engagements can leave couples with little time for each other. Long work hours and demanding schedules can make it challenging to find moments of togetherness amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. B. Technology Distractions: In today's digital age, constant connectivity through smartphones, tablets, and social media can detract from quality time spent with a partner. As couples get absorbed in their screens, meaningful face-to-face interactions and bonding experiences may be put on the back burner. C. Different Priorities: Each partner may have their own individual priorities, interests, and goals, which can sometimes lead to conflicting schedules and diverging paths. Balancing personal ambitions with shared time as a couple requires compromise, understanding, and a willingness to prioritize the relationship. D. Lack of Communication: Poor communication or misaligned expectations can hinder couples from effectively planning and coordinating their time together. Assumptions about each other's needs and preferences can lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities for connection. E. Financial Constraints: Financial pressures and concerns about budgeting can limit the opportunities for couples to engage in activities that require spending money, such as dining out, attending events, or going on vacations. Strained finances can create added stress and barriers to quality time together. F. Parenting Responsibilities: Raising children adds another layer of complexity to spending time together as a couple. Parenting duties, childcare logistics, and the demands of nurturing a family can consume much of parents' time and energy, leaving little room for romantic or leisure activities. G. Relationship Struggles: Underlying issues within the relationship, such as unresolved conflicts, emotional distance, or lack of intimacy, can make it challenging for couples to prioritize spending time together. Relationship discord can create barriers to fostering connection and closeness. H. External Pressures: External stressors such as job insecurity, health concerns, family dynamics, or societal expectations can impact couples' ability to focus on their relationship and make time for shared experiences. These outside pressures can overshadow the importance of nurturing the marital bond. Navigating these challenges requires compassion, communication, and a mutual commitment to overcoming obstacles as a team. By acknowledging the various factors that can impede quality time together, couples can proactively address these issues and strengthen their relationship bonds. The K.I.S.S. ~ Just do it!

Dreams are forgotten, tempers are heightened, and change becomes the norm. But remember, your best days are ahead.  Parenting is a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows, laughter and tears, and victories and setbacks. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's a journey that tests your patience, resilience, and tenacity on a daily basis. As children grow and evolve, so do the challenges that come with each stage of their development. Just when you think you have figured it all out, a new curveball is thrown your way. It's during these moments of uncertainty and frustration that parents often find themselves questioning their abilities and wondering if they're on the right path. The key to surviving parenting lies in embracing the journey, staying true to yourself, and believing that your best days are ahead. So, what can parents do to navigate the ups and downs of parenting while maintaining their sanity and holding onto hope for brighter tomorrows? Embrace the parenting journey. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the parenting journey!   Here are three essential strategies to help you weather the storms and emerge stronger than ever when it comes to parenting: 1. Embrace Imperfection: Parenting is not about being perfect; it's about being present. Allow yourself the grace to make mistakes, learn from them, and grow alongside your children. Celebrate the small victories, laugh at the inevitable mishaps, and remember that imperfection is what makes your family unique and beautiful. 2. Prioritize Self-Care: Amidst the chaos of daily life, it's crucial for parents to prioritize self-care and carve out moments of rest and rejuvenation. Take time for yourself, whether it's indulging in a hobby, going for a walk, or simply enjoying a quiet cup of coffee in the morning. By nurturing your own well-being, you'll be better equipped to handle the demands of parenting with grace and resilience. 3. Cultivate Resilience: Parenting is a marathon, not a sprint. It's a journey filled with unexpected twists and turns, but it's also a testament to your strength and resilience as a parent. When faced with challenges, instead of giving up, dig deep, lean on your support system, and remind yourself that you have the power to overcome any obstacle that comes your way. "Resilience is not about never falling, but about rising every time you fall, knowing that your best days are ahead." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, dear parents, in the midst of the chaos and uncertainties, remember that your best days are indeed ahead. Embrace the imperfections, prioritize self-care, and cultivate resilience – for the journey of parenting is paved with challenges, but also with boundless opportunities for growth, love, and joy.

Unfortunately, this is something that can't be controlled by you, working hard to shine in the darkness--But there is hope!

Life's challenges can be overwhelming, pushing us to our limits and testing our resilience. But even in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, we have the power to rise above, to brightly shine in the darkness. How does one rediscover hope within when life is nothing but lemons? Finding that lemonade in the bowels of despair is so challenging. In fact, it can be debilitating. It's easy to feel defeated, to question your worth and capabilities.

It's about shifting your perspective, seeing beyond the darkness to the light in front of you. "Sometimes the boundaries may seem fuzzy, but it's in those moments of uncertainty that we discover the possibilities." - Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Shine in the darkness!   Life is a roller coaster with twists and turns, ups and downs, backwards and forwards. However, you don't have to let your feelings dictate your actions or behaviors. Keep your mind focused on what matters. Make sure you have a confidant you can speak with to get it off your chest if need be. Then, show up like you know how to shine in the darkness. Navigating that roller coaster of life requires resilience, determination, and unwavering faith in yourself. You must learn to trust in your own abilities, to embrace the twists and turns with courage and grace. Even when the path ahead seems impossible, you have what it takes to choose your response, to show up and shine in the darkness. "Your true strength shines through when you refuse to let your feelings dictate your actions." - Kristianne Wargo Shine in the Darkness by Kristianne Wargo In the chaos and the clutter, where darkness reigns supreme, I find myself lost in the mess, a mere fragment of a dream. Life's twists and turns have led me astray, But deep within, a flicker of hope still lights the way.   Boundaries blurred, uncertainties loom, Yet within me, a strength begins to bloom. I refuse to be defined by the chaos around, For in the heart of the storm, resilience is found.   When life hands me lemons, sour to the taste, I choose to rise above with unwavering grace. Through the twists and turns, I navigate with might, Embracing the challenges, basking in the light.   In the depths of despair, I uncover a spark, A beacon of hope that pierces through the dark. I let my light shine, radiant and true, Guiding me forward, illuminating the view.   So in the midst of the mess, I stand tall and bright, Rediscovering myself in the depths of the night. With courage and faith, I reclaim my own way, Finding strength in the chaos, where I choose to stay. "Be present. Be incredible.

Even when the path ahead seems impossible, you have what it takes to choose your response, to show up and shine in the darkness. "Your true strength shines through when you refuse to let your feelings dictate your actions." - Kristianne Wargo Shine in the Darkness by Kristianne Wargo In the chaos and the clutter, where darkness reigns supreme, I find myself lost in the mess, a mere fragment of a dream. Life's twists and turns have led me astray, But deep within, a flicker of hope still lights the way.   Boundaries blurred, uncertainties loom, Yet within me, a strength begins to bloom. I refuse to be defined by the chaos around, For in the heart of the storm, resilience is found.   When life hands me lemons, sour to the taste, I choose to rise above with unwavering grace. Through the twists and turns, I navigate with might, Embracing the challenges, basking in the light.   In the depths of despair, I uncover a spark, A beacon of hope that pierces through the dark. I let my light shine, radiant and true, Guiding me forward, illuminating the view.   So in the midst of the mess, I stand tall and bright, Rediscovering myself in the depths of the night. With courage and faith, I reclaim my own way, Finding strength in the chaos, where I choose to stay. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

While it’s tempting to compare your progress, the key to success lies in running your own race.  And when you do, you get the unexpected win. "Healthy living is not a competition against others, but a journey towards your best self." ~ Kristianne Wargo Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    So let's talk a little about that comparison. Why do you get caught up in all the stuff of everyone else? Mostly, it can be curiosity. But when the desire to be better than someone, that's when the gloves come out. That's when the competition is on. And that's when you lose. You also can't forget that rampage of getting everything done quickly. Looking for that quick fix is a real deal. Or is it? One must think how long it took for you to get to where you are. Therefore, it's going to be a journey for sure. Don't get lost in someone else's journey. Stay the course designed for you. There, you will create your now and experience the unexpected win. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't get lost!   I am still having flashbacks of an incredible Olympics in Paris. And when I think about the <a href="https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/40752125/cole-hocker-upset-1500-josh-kerr-jakob-ingebrigtsen" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> 1500 Men's Race</a>, it's one of those races that truly highlights in real life how not getting lost is the key to success. Cole Hocker came out ready to utilize his training and strategy to run the best race for him. It wasn't about the current world and olympic champion. This Olympic 1500m race was for him to go and show up and do what he trained to do. So let's take a page out of Cole Hocker's training manual. #1. Run Your Own Race: The Men’s 1500 race serves as a poignant reminder that success is not dictated by external factors, but by our internal drive and dedication. The gold medalist didn’t focus on outshining his competitors; instead, he devoted himself to rigorous training and staying true to his race strategy. Similarly, in the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle, it's essential to set personal goals, listen to your body, and stay committed to your wellness journey. Remember, the only person you should strive to be better than is the person you were yesterday. #2. Don’t Be Intimidated by the Hype: In a world saturated with trends and influencers, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the noise and pressure to conform. However, true success in healthy living comes from authenticity and self-assurance. Just like the underdog runner, Cole Hocker, who clinched the gold medal victory in the Men’s 1500 race, don’t be swayed by external validation or comparisons. Stay focused on your health goals, block out the distractions, and trust in your own capabilities. Your journey is unique, and your accomplishments are worth celebrating, regardless of the spotlight. #3. Expect the Unexpected: Life has a way of surprising us when we least expect it. The unexpected victory in the Men’s 1500 race serves as a testament to the power of resilience and faith. Similarly, in the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle, be open to the possibility of unexpected breakthroughs. Sometimes, the most significant transformations come from unlikely sources or unforeseen circumstances. Embrace the unknown, trust in your journey, and believe in the potential for growth and positive change. CHALLENGE: Where are you in your health journey? Where are the struggles? Where are your celebrations? See what's possible because you're looking at your lane. Don't get lost in someone else's journey. Stay the course designed for you. There, you will create your now and experience the unexpected win! "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you could keep the doors open and pivot in a way that changes everything? Change your thoughts, change your mind—leave no stone unturned. Giving up and quitting can feel like a weight lifted off your shoulders in the moment. It's a tempting escape from the challenges, setbacks, and uncertainties that come with pursuing your dreams. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, what is often overlooked is the aftermath of that decision - the lingering sense of unfulfilled potential, regret, and wondering "what if." The journey to success is rarely a straight path, and it's natural to encounter moments of doubt, fatigue, and frustration along the way. You can get yourself wrapped up in this cyclone of chaos. Acknowledging these feelings and the difficulties that come with persevering is essential in understanding the true value of not giving up. It requires a deep, introspective look at your motivations, fears, and aspirations. "Acknowledging your feelings is the first step towards transformation." ~ Kristianne Wargo By allowing yourself to sit with discomfort, uncertainty, and vulnerability, you pave the way for personal growth and resilience. Quitting may offer temporary relief, but it robs you of the opportunity to witness your own strength, resilience, and capacity for growth. It also denies the world the chance to experience the unique gifts and talents you have to offer. "Quitting shrinks your world, while persistence expands your horizons." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Expand your horizons!   Success leaves clues, and dreams leave an impression. Don't let what isn't working shut you out. 1. Face Challenges Head-On: To move past the urge of giving up, it's crucial to confront your fears and doubts head-on. Rather than avoiding obstacles, confront them with courage and determination. "Obstacles are opportunities in disguise." ~ Kristianne Wargo By reframing challenges as chances for growth and learning, you can navigate them more effectively and emerge stronger on the other side. Embrace discomfort as a sign of progress and push through difficulties. You must forge ahead.   Remember, the most significant growth often occurs outside your comfort zone. 2. Cultivate a Growth Mindset: Adopting a growth mindset is crucial in leaving no stone unturned. Rather than viewing your abilities and intelligence as fixed traits, recognize that they can be developed through dedication and effort.   "Success begins with a single thought." ~ Kristianne Wargo By believing in your capacity for improvement and embracing lifelong learning, you open yourself up to endless possibilities. As you navigate the ups and downs of your journey, remember that setbacks are not signs of failure but lessons in disguise. Every obstacle you encounter, every moment of doubt you confront, is an opportunity to strengthen your resolve, sharpen your skills, and deepen your understanding of yourself. By embracing the discomfort and choosing to persevere, you not only unlock your full potential but also inspire others to do the same. 3. Seek Support and Accountability: Surround yourself with a supportive community that encourages your journey toward success. Share your goals and aspirations with trusted friends, mentors, or coaches who can provide guidance, motivation, and accountability. "Strength in numbers is not just a statistic, it's a reality." ~ Kristianne Wargo By forming connections with individuals and a community that uplifts and inspires you, you create a network of allies who can help you stay focused, motivated, and committed to your path. As you and I both know, quitting may seem like an easy way out, but the true test of character lies in your ability to push through adversity, rise above challenges, and emerge stronger on the other side. So, when faced with the temptation to give up, remember that acknowledging your feelings and embracing the discomfort is the first step to leave no stone unturned. "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you could keep the doors open and pivot in a way that changes everything? Change your thoughts, change your mind—leave no stone unturned. Giving up and quitting can feel like a weight lifted off your shoulders in the moment. It's a tempting escape from the challenges, setbacks, and uncertainties that come with pursuing your dreams. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, what is often overlooked is the aftermath of that decision - the lingering sense of unfulfilled potential, regret, and wondering "what if." The journey to success is rarely a straight path, and it's natural to encounter moments of doubt, fatigue, and frustration along the way. You can get yourself wrapped up in this cyclone of chaos. Acknowledging these feelings and the difficulties that come with persevering is essential in understanding the true value of not giving up. It requires a deep, introspective look at your motivations, fears, and aspirations. "Acknowledging your feelings is the first step towards transformation." ~ Kristianne Wargo By allowing yourself to sit with discomfort, uncertainty, and vulnerability, you pave the way for personal growth and resilience. Quitting may offer temporary relief, but it robs you of the opportunity to witness your own strength, resilience, and capacity for growth. It also denies the world the chance to experience the unique gifts and talents you have to offer. "Quitting shrinks your world, while persistence expands your horizons." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Expand your horizons!   Success leaves clues, and dreams leave an impression. Don't let what isn't working shut you out. 1. Face Challenges Head-On: To move past the urge of giving up, it's crucial to confront your fears and doubts head-on. Rather than avoiding obstacles, confront them with courage and determination. "Obstacles are opportunities in disguise." ~ Kristianne Wargo By reframing challenges as chances for growth and learning, you can navigate them more effectively and emerge stronger on the other side. Embrace discomfort as a sign of progress and push through difficulties. You must forge ahead.   Remember, the most significant growth often occurs outside your comfort zone. 2. Cultivate a Growth Mindset: Adopting a growth mindset is crucial in leaving no stone unturned. Rather than viewing your abilities and intelligence as fixed traits, recognize that they can be developed through dedication and effort.   "Success begins with a single thought." ~ Kristianne Wargo By believing in your capacity for improvement and embracing lifelong learning, you open yourself up to endless possibilities. As you navigate the ups and downs of your journey, remember that setbacks are not signs of failure but lessons in disguise. Every obstacle you encounter, every moment of doubt you confront, is an opportunity to strengthen your resolve, sharpen your skills, and deepen your understanding of yourself. By embracing the discomfort and choosing to persevere, you not only unlock your full potential but also inspire others to do the same. 3. Seek Support and Accountability: Surround yourself with a supportive community that encourages your journey toward success. Share your goals and aspirations with trusted friends, mentors, or coaches who can provide guidance, motivation, and accountability. "Strength in numbers is not just a statistic, it's a reality." ~ Kristianne Wargo By forming connections with individuals and a community that uplifts and inspires you, you create a network of allies who can help you stay focused, motivated, and committed to your path.

The joy beyond your circumstances doesn't happen as a result of your control. Because God loves you, it's a party every day! Are you familiar with the parable of the prodigal son told by Jesus? (Luke 15:11-32) Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    There lived a wealthy man with two sons. The younger son, full of restlessness and ambition, approached his father one day and demanded his share of the inheritance. Despite his father's sorrow, the inheritance was divided, and the young man set off to a distant country where he squandered his wealth on wild living. As misfortune befell him, the young son found himself destitute and hungry, yearning for the comfort of his father's home. With a heavy heart and tattered clothes, he journeyed back, rehearsing his apology and hoping for a place even as a servant in his father's house. But as he approached, his father saw him from afar and ran to meet him. With tears in his eyes and love in his heart, the father embraced his wayward son, showering him with forgiveness and grace. "Welcome home, my child," he proclaimed, "for you were lost, but now you are found." The older son, watching from a distance, harbored resentment towards his brother's return and the father's lavish welcome. But the father, in his wisdom, reminded him of the joy in redemption and the power of forgiveness. "All that I have is yours," he assured, "but today, let us celebrate the return of your brother, for he was lost and now is found." The K.I.S.S. ~ It's a party every day!   God loves you! But for whatever reason, we want to control our own lives to the depths of screwing it up even more. In reading this parable, the Greek word used that talks about dividing up the property is "βίος" (pronounced as "baiyos"), and it means the sustenance of life or livelihood. It wasn't just material things. That's not the wealth Jesus was referring to. It literally was the sustenance that gives you life (food, clothing, shelter). The story of the Prodigal Son mirrors God's desire for us – to forgive those who have wronged us, to welcome back those who have strayed, and to show compassion and empathy to all, regardless of their past actions. God asks us to see it differently because He sees it differently. So maybe you're more lost than you thought you were. Maybe you need to look and see how tight your fists are holding on and trying to control everything. Are you screaming in your mind, "I can find myself. I can save myself."? Just Come Home. It's a party every day. God will be waiting to celebrate you! Give up what you can't control and let love multiply. It's a party every day! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

When the path becomes rocky and the future seems uncertain, many couples find themselves asking, "Is it really over?" The truth is that the end of a marriage is not a sudden event that occurs out of the blue. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life doesn't stop on a dime unless it's death. Therefore, your marriage doesn't die overnight. It takes days, weeks, months, and years for the unraveling to appear--that gradual unraveling of the bond that once held two people together. But amidst the turmoil, there is always a glimmer of hope, a flicker of light that suggests all may not be lost. You have to go beyond the hurt. The K.I.S.S. ~ Go beyond the hurt!   One crucial thing to remember is that marriage is not a static entity. It is a living, breathing entity that evolves over time. What once seemed insurmountable challenges may, in fact, be opportunities for growth and transformation. As relationships shift and change, so too can the dynamics within a marriage. It's important to recognize that things can change. Communication breakdowns, unresolved conflicts, and feelings of disconnect are not insurmountable obstacles. With commitment, effort, and a willingness to work through difficulties, couples can overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges and emerge stronger on the other side. However, change takes time. Healing old wounds, rebuilding trust, and rekindling intimacy requires patience, dedication, and perseverance. There are no quick fixes or easy solutions when it comes to repairing a fractured marriage. It is a process that unfolds gradually, requiring ongoing effort and a shared commitment to the relationship. "In the darkest moments of a marriage, there is always a glimmer of hope waiting to be nurtured and embraced." ~ Kristianne Wargo This sentiment encapsulates the essence of resilience, determination, and unwavering faith in the possibility of renewal and regeneration within a marriage. When faced with the uncertainty of a troubled marriage, remember that it is never truly over until both parties have exhausted every possible avenue for reconciliation. By acknowledging that marriage is a dynamic, ever-evolving entity, by believing that change is possible, and by committing to the long and often arduous journey of rebuilding a fractured relationship, couples can discover that there is indeed hope for a brighter tomorrow.

Healing old wounds, rebuilding trust, and rekindling intimacy requires patience, dedication, and perseverance. There are no quick fixes or easy solutions when it comes to repairing a fractured marriage. It is a process that unfolds gradually, requiring ongoing effort and a shared commitment to the relationship. "In the darkest moments of a marriage, there is always a glimmer of hope waiting to be nurtured and embraced." ~ Kristianne Wargo This sentiment encapsulates the essence of resilience, determination, and unwavering faith in the possibility of renewal and regeneration within a marriage. When faced with the uncertainty of a troubled marriage, remember that it is never truly over until both parties have exhausted every possible avenue for reconciliation. By acknowledging that marriage is a dynamic, ever-evolving entity, by believing that change is possible, and by committing to the long and often arduous journey of rebuilding a fractured relationship, couples can discover that there is indeed hope for a brighter tomorrow.

It doesn't matter if you have kids or not, life is disrupted all around. So, instead of driving yourself crazy, know that you can tame the back-to-school chaos. Transitioning from the laid-back days of summer to the hustle and bustle of a new school year can be a chaotic time for families. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Whether you're a parent trying to juggle schedules or a student bracing for new challenges, the back-to-school season can feel overwhelming. But fear not, there are ways to tame the back-to-school chaos and make this transition smoother for everyone involved. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fear not!   1. RUN A ROUTINE--Establishing a routine is one key strategy for parents to stay organized during the back-to-school madness. Creating a consistent schedule helps children feel secure and prepares them for what to expect each day. By setting regular bedtimes, meal times, and study times, parents can help their children adjust to the new school year with less stress. 2. FEEL THE FEARS--Another effective way to tackle the back-to-school chaos is to communicate openly with your child about their fears and concerns. You want to encourage your child to share their feelings about school openly. Validate their emotions and offer reassurance that you are there to support them every step of the way. When you have this open dialogue, it can help your child feel heard and understood, easing their anxieties about the upcoming school year. 3. REST IN THE RUSH--Finally, one of the most powerful tools for taming the back-to-school chaos is to take care of yourself. Take time to relax and recharge, whether it's through exercise, meditation, or enjoying a hobby. "Remember that you can't pour from an empty cup. Taking care of yourself is not selfish, it's necessary for your well-being and the well-being of your family." ~ Kristianne Wargo The back-to-school season doesn't have to be synonymous with chaos and stress. By establishing routines, fostering open communication with your child, and prioritizing self-care, parents can navigate this busy time with greater ease and effectiveness. Remember, a little preparation and self-care can go a long way in taming the back-to-school chaos for a smoother transition into the new school year. "Be present. Be incredible.

Each decision, whether big or small or even the ones we avoid, carries its own set of consequences. Healthy living is hard no matter how you live. Choose your hard.  As you know, the decisions you avoid have repercussions that impact your health and well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life, in essence, is a series of trade-offs. We must navigate between various "hards" to determine our ultimate reality. Marriage, a bond built on love and commitment, requires effort and dedication. But so does divorce, with its own set of challenges and emotional toll. The decision between working on a relationship or walking away is a choice of two "hards" that individuals must confront. Financial stability is another aspect of life where choices impact our well-being. The burden of debt can be overwhelming, leading to stress and anxiety. Alternatively, practicing financial discipline and smart money management may seem challenging initially but paves the way for a secure and stable future. Choosing between the struggles of debt and the empowerment of financial freedom is a pivotal decision individuals face. Which hard would you rather have? Effective communication, a cornerstone of relationships and personal growth, often poses its own challenges. Confronting difficult conversations and expressing oneself authentically can be tough. However, the repercussions of not communicating effectively, such as misunderstandings and unaddressed issues, can lead to a different form of hardship. Selecting between the discomfort of communicating openly or the consequences of silence is a choice individuals must make. Similarly, the battle against obesity demands discipline, hard work, and self-control. Conversely, the journey to being fit and healthy requires dedication, perseverance, and a commitment to self-improvement. The choice between living with the consequences of being overweight or embracing a lifestyle of wellness presents itself as a significant "hard" to confront. In the journey of life, hardships are inevitable. Every path requires effort and resilience. The key lies in recognizing the power of choice and understanding that while life may not be easy, we have the agency to "choose our hard." By embracing the challenges that serve our well-being and lead us toward growth, we can shape a reality aligned with our values and aspirations. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose your hard!   "What do you need to consider doing because the pain of not doing it is greater than doing the same thing now?" ~ Kristianne Wargo The key here to advocate for yourself. You matter! And so does your health! So be willing to take control of your decisions that will impact and influence your entire life. Three Actions to Transform Your Health: 1. Prioritize Physical Activity: Incorporate regular exercise into your routine, whether it's walking, running, yoga, or strength training. Physical movement not only boosts your physical health but also enhances mental well-being. 2. Mindful Eating: Pay attention to what you consume and opt for nourishing, whole foods that fuel your body. Mindful eating promotes awareness of your eating habits and helps you make healthier choices. 3. Prioritize Self-Care: Take time for self-care activities that rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit. Whether it's meditation, journaling, or spending time in nature, self-care plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and balance. You need to lift 5 pounds before you can lift 100 pounds. 1. Define Your Goals: Clearly outline your objectives and align them with your values and aspirations. Understand what you aim to achieve and why it matters to you. Setting specific, measurable goals provides a roadmap for the steps needed to move forward. 2. Seek Support and Guidance: Don't hesitate to reach out to mentors, coaches, or trusted individuals who can offer guidance and perspective. Surround yourself with a supportive network that can provide insights, advice, and encouragement as you navigate through challenging decisions. Collaboration and support can make the journey less daunting. 3. Break It Down: Break down the intimidating next steps into smaller, manageable tasks. By dividing the process into actionable steps, you can create a sense of accomplishment with each milestone achieved. Focus on one task at a time, maintain momentum, and celebrate progress along the way. Remember, even the hardest journey begins with a single step. Embracing these strategies can empower you to navigate challenging next steps with clarity, confidence, and purpose. "Life is a series of choices.

Each decision, whether big or small or even the ones we avoid, carries its own set of consequences. Healthy living is hard no matter how you live. Choose your hard.  As you know, the decisions you avoid have repercussions that impact your health and well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life, in essence, is a series of trade-offs. We must navigate between various "hards" to determine our ultimate reality. Marriage, a bond built on love and commitment, requires effort and dedication. But so does divorce, with its own set of challenges and emotional toll. The decision between working on a relationship or walking away is a choice of two "hards" that individuals must confront. Financial stability is another aspect of life where choices impact our well-being. The burden of debt can be overwhelming, leading to stress and anxiety. Alternatively, practicing financial discipline and smart money management may seem challenging initially but paves the way for a secure and stable future. Choosing between the struggles of debt and the empowerment of financial freedom is a pivotal decision individuals face. Which hard would you rather have? Effective communication, a cornerstone of relationships and personal growth, often poses its own challenges. Confronting difficult conversations and expressing oneself authentically can be tough. However, the repercussions of not communicating effectively, such as misunderstandings and unaddressed issues, can lead to a different form of hardship. Selecting between the discomfort of communicating openly or the consequences of silence is a choice individuals must make. Similarly, the battle against obesity demands discipline, hard work, and self-control. Conversely, the journey to being fit and healthy requires dedication, perseverance, and a commitment to self-improvement. The choice between living with the consequences of being overweight or embracing a lifestyle of wellness presents itself as a significant "hard" to confront. In the journey of life, hardships are inevitable. Every path requires effort and resilience. The key lies in recognizing the power of choice and understanding that while life may not be easy, we have the agency to "choose our hard." By embracing the challenges that serve our well-being and lead us toward growth, we can shape a reality aligned with our values and aspirations. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose your hard!   "What do you need to consider doing because the pain of not doing it is greater than doing the same thing now?" ~ Kristianne Wargo The key here to advocate for yourself. You matter! And so does your health! So be willing to take control of your decisions that will impact and influence your entire life. Three Actions to Transform Your Health: 1. Prioritize Physical Activity: Incorporate regular exercise into your routine, whether it's walking, running, yoga, or strength training. Physical movement not only boosts your physical health but also enhances mental well-being. 2. Mindful Eating: Pay attention to what you consume and opt for nourishing, whole foods that fuel your body. Mindful eating promotes awareness of your eating habits and helps you make healthier choices. 3. Prioritize Self-Care: Take time for self-care activities that rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit. Whether it's meditation, journaling, or spending time in nature, self-care plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and balance. You need to lift 5 pounds before you can lift 100 pounds. 1.

There are more downs than ups. It's like the wind seems more like a hurricane on steroids. If only you could take that extreme energy and position it to rebuild, turning breakdowns into breakthroughs. Life can be a whirlwind of chaos, where breakdowns seem to outnumber breakthroughs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's during these turbulent times that the opportunity for transformation lies, allowing us to harness that powerful energy to rebuild and emerge stronger than before. When life hits rock bottom, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and defeated. But amidst the rubble, there is a glimmer of hope waiting to be discovered. Yet, you have to be the one to grab ahold of the obstacles and turn them into opportunities.  And that's turning breakdowns into breakthroughs. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turning breakdowns into breakthroughs!   Think of a time when life didn't go your way. How did you respond?  Was it more about defending your position? Or were you open to exploring how you got there? We often jump to defend, mainly because of our egos. Who wants to be wrong? However, if you want more out of life, it needs to be more about transformation than position.  Here are three essential steps to turn breakdowns into breakthroughs. 1. PRACTICE SELF-REFLECTION: Take a moment to pause and reflect on the circumstances that led to the breakdown. By understanding the root cause of the challenges faced, one can gain clarity and insight into how to move forward. "In the stillness of reflection, the answers appear when we seek." ~ Kristianne Wargo For example, after a sudden job loss, instead of spiraling into despair, one can use this time to reflect on their career goals and aspirations, paving the way for a new and exciting direction. Where do you need to spend some time in self-reflection? 2. EMBRACE RESILIENCE: Cultivate resilience in the face of adversity, knowing that setbacks are merely stepping stones to success. When faced with obstacles, instead of giving up, face them head-on with courage and determination. "Resilience is not the absence of pain, but the courage to rebuild." ~ Kristianne Wargo A personal example could be overcoming a health crisis by staying resilient and committing to a healthier lifestyle, ultimately turning a breakdown in health into a breakthrough in well-being. Where do you need to embrace resilience? 3. SEEK SUPPORT: Reach out to loved ones, mentors, or professionals for guidance and support during challenging times. Surrounding yourself with a strong support system can provide encouragement, perspective, and practical advice. "Community is the cornerstone of resilience." ~ Kristianne Wargo For instance, navigating a difficult relationship breakdown becomes more manageable with the support of a therapist or a close friend, paving the way for personal growth and healing. Where can you find community? When faced with life's inevitable breakdowns, remember that every setback is an opportunity for a comeback. This means you have room for growth and transformation. "So no matter how you find life, in the depths of breakdowns, you can have a breakthrough and discover the resilience to rise and rebuild." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's during these turbulent times that the opportunity for transformation lies, allowing us to harness that powerful energy to rebuild and emerge stronger than before. When life hits rock bottom, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and defeated. But amidst the rubble, there is a glimmer of hope waiting to be discovered. Yet, you have to be the one to grab ahold of the obstacles and turn them into opportunities.  And that's turning breakdowns into breakthroughs. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turning breakdowns into breakthroughs!   Think of a time when life didn't go your way. How did you respond?  Was it more about defending your position? Or were you open to exploring how you got there? We often jump to defend, mainly because of our egos. Who wants to be wrong? However, if you want more out of life, it needs to be more about transformation than position.  Here are three essential steps to turn breakdowns into breakthroughs. 1. PRACTICE SELF-REFLECTION: Take a moment to pause and reflect on the circumstances that led to the breakdown. By understanding the root cause of the challenges faced, one can gain clarity and insight into how to move forward. "In the stillness of reflection, the answers appear when we seek." ~ Kristianne Wargo For example, after a sudden job loss, instead of spiraling into despair, one can use this time to reflect on their career goals and aspirations, paving the way for a new and exciting direction. Where do you need to spend some time in self-reflection? 2. EMBRACE RESILIENCE: Cultivate resilience in the face of adversity, knowing that setbacks are merely stepping stones to success. When faced with obstacles, instead of giving up, face them head-on with courage and determination. "Resilience is not the absence of pain, but the courage to rebuild." ~ Kristianne Wargo A personal example could be overcoming a health crisis by staying resilient and committing to a healthier lifestyle, ultimately turning a breakdown in health into a breakthrough in well-being. Where do you need to embrace resilience? 3. SEEK SUPPORT: Reach out to loved ones, mentors, or professionals for guidance and support during challenging times. Surrounding yourself with a strong support system can provide encouragement, perspective, and practical advice. "Community is the cornerstone of resilience." ~ Kristianne Wargo For instance, navigating a difficult relationship breakdown becomes more manageable with the support of a therapist or a close friend, paving the way for personal growth and healing. Where can you find community? When faced with life's inevitable breakdowns, remember that every setback is an opportunity for a comeback. This means you have room for growth and transformation. "So no matter how you find life, in the depths of breakdowns, you can have a breakthrough and discover the resilience to rise and rebuild." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Just because it's a good and noble thing to press on, it's helpful to be motivated by the prize. What prize does God have for you? In the midst of the exhilarating competitions at the Olympics, we are reminded of the timeless wisdom found in 1 Corinthians 9:27. The verse speaks to the idea of pressing on, not just for the sake of duty, but with a clear goal in mind — a prize worth every ounce of effort put forth.

From the ancient wrestling matches to the grandeur of the Olympic Games, the spirit of pushing oneself to the limit has captivated hearts and minds. Just as athletes train rigorously to claim a coveted medal, so too are you called to run the race of life with perseverance and purpose. We can look in the Bible and get glimpses of the ultimate prize that awaits those who remain steadfast in their faith. "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." ~ Hebrews 12:1-2 Hebrews 12:1-2 encourages us to run with endurance, keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author, and perfecter of our faith. It is in this unwavering focus on our Savior that we find the strength to overcome obstacles and reach our divine reward. The K.I.S.S. ~ What prize does God have for you?   In a world filled with distractions and challenges, it can be easy to lose sight of the eternal significance of our actions. So why not align your will with God's and strive for excellence in all that you do? There, you pave the way with God. As we watch the athletes compete with unwavering determination at the Olympics, let us draw inspiration from their dedication and commitment. Just as they aim for gold, may we set our sights on the imperishable reward promised to us by our Lord and Savior. So, as you face each day's trials and triumphs, remember the words of Philippians 3:14: "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." Embrace the journey, stay steadfast in your faith, and rest assured that your efforts are leading you closer to the ultimate victory — an eternity in the presence of the One who loves you unconditionally.

To build a strong foundation in your marriage, you need to know how to be best friends with your spouse. Friendship in marriage is the unique blend of companionship, trust, understanding, and support shared between partners. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It goes beyond mere romantic love and encompasses a deep connection built on mutual respect, open communication, and empathy.  Friendship in marriage involves laughter, shared experiences, and a sense of unity that forms the foundation for a strong and enduring relationship. It is about being best friends with your spouse, walking hand in hand through life's joys and challenges, and creating a bond that withstands the test of time. Friendship is the glue of a strong and lasting marriage. It transcends mere companionship and forms the backbone of trust, support, and understanding between spouses. So, if you want an absolutely incredible marriage, you gotta be friends first. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be F.R.I.E.N.D.S. first!   Becoming best friends with your spouse is a crucial aspect of the marriage journey that can enhance the depth and quality of your relationship. To achieve this level of companionship and closeness, you gotta be "F.R.I.E.N.D.S." first. F – FACILITATE OPEN and HONEST COMMUNICATION: Effective communication is the cornerstone of any friendship, including the one with your spouse. Be honest, listen actively, and express your thoughts and feelings openly. As the writer Shannon L. Alder once said, "When you stop talking, you've lost your best friend." R – RESPECT EACH OTHER: Respect lays the foundation for a strong friendship. Treat your spouse with kindness, consideration, and appreciation. Acknowledge their opinions, boundaries, and individuality. A relationship built on respect is bound to thrive. I – INVEST TIME and EFFORT: Just like any friendship, your relationship with your spouse requires time and effort to flourish. Make it a priority to spend quality time together, engage in activities you both enjoy, and create memorable experiences. Show up for each other consistently. E – EMPATHY and UNDERSTANDING: Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. Cultivate empathy toward your spouse by putting yourself in their shoes, validating their emotions, and being compassionate. Understand that you are a team working towards common goals. N – NURTURE TRUST: Trust is the bedrock of any friendship, including the one with your spouse. Build trust through honesty, reliability, and accountability. Trusting each other creates a safe space for vulnerability and intimacy to thrive. D – DEMONSTRATE LOVE and APPRECIATION: Love is the glue that holds a friendship together. Show your spouse love through acts of kindness, affection, and gratitude. Appreciate their strengths, celebrate their successes, and support them through challenges. Love is the language of the heart. S – SUPPORT EACH OTHER'S DREAMS and ASPIRATIONS: Supporting your spouse in pursuing their dreams and aspirations is a crucial aspect of being best friends. Encourage their growth, cheer them on in their endeavors, and be their biggest fan. A supportive spouse creates a nurturing environment for both personal and shared goals to thrive. By taking on the responsibility of being "F.R.I.E.N.D.S.", you can foster a deep, meaningful connection with your spouse and cultivate a friendship that withstands the test of time. Remember, the journey to becoming best friends with your spouse is a beautiful adventure worth embarking on together. "Be present. Be incredible.

But if we, as parents, are bombarded with responsibilities, what is left to give? Your child needs your voice. Moms--we play a pivotal role in shaping our children's lives through the power of their words. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    A mother's voice should resound with love, grace, hope, compassion, patience, and wisdom - it's a beacon of light in a sometimes tumultuous world. In essence, it's a voice of reason for every season. Life's challenges can often drown out our voices. Distractions, expectations, failures, and successes can silence the very words our children need to hear. It's crucial to remember that no matter how life treats you, your child still needs your voice. So, if you're ready to rise to the occasion, let's speak life into our children. The K.I.S.S. ~ Speak L.I.F.E. to your child!   Parents need to embody life—love, grace, hope, compassion, patience, and wisdom. Through these virtues, we can nurture and inspire our little ones to become the best selfies. "Love is the anchor that keeps us rooted in kindness and compassion." - Kristianne Wargo L - LISTEN actively: Take the time to truly listen to your child, understand their feelings, thoughts, and emotions without judgment. Active listening builds trust and strengthens your bond with your little one.

In essence, it's a voice of reason for every season. Life's challenges can often drown out our voices. Distractions, expectations, failures, and successes can silence the very words our children need to hear. It's crucial to remember that no matter how life treats you, your child still needs your voice. So, if you're ready to rise to the occasion, let's speak life into our children. The K.I.S.S. ~ Speak L.I.F.E. to your child!   Parents need to embody life—love, grace, hope, compassion, patience, and wisdom. Through these virtues, we can nurture and inspire our little ones to become the best selfies. "Love is the anchor that keeps us rooted in kindness and compassion." - Kristianne Wargo L - LISTEN actively: Take the time to truly listen to your child, understand their feelings, thoughts, and emotions without judgment. Active listening builds trust and strengthens your bond with your little one.

But what about when success comes? Is it a time in your life that lasts forever, or is it a fleeting moment? Sometimes you have to learn to rise above your success.   Success is not a straight line, it's a journey with peaks and valleys. When faced with failure, it's crucial to remember that it's not the end but rather a stepping stone towards greater achievements. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Failure is a natural part of the process, and often, it is through these failures that we learn the most valuable lessons. Each setback provides us with an opportunity to reassess our approach, refine our strategies, and ultimately grow stronger and more resilient. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above your success!   Yet what happens when you are successful? It's important to acknowledge that even the most successful individuals have faced numerous failures on their path to greatness. Thomas Edison famously said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." But isn't that success; the ability to see failure as a temporary obstacle rather than a defining outcome? Remember, success is not a destination but a continuous journey of growth and self-improvement. So does that mean when you succeed, you stop doing life?  "Success is not the finale!" ~ Kristianne Wargo As you navigate through the ups and downs of your success story, keep in mind that every setback is an opportunity for you to rise above and reach new heights.

Then why not change your healthy living habits? Transforming your lifestyle can be challenging, but with determination and consistency, you can achieve your goals. Remember, it's not about being perfect, but about adapting and staying focused on your journey towards a healthier you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Most of the time when we want everything to be just right, we start on a Monday, fail on a Friday, and repeat the process again. And then, you wonder why you are still where you are. Common sense will give you your answer. However, no one wants to be overshadowed by how many times they fail. Right? You want to succeed. So why not now? Why not create your now with the direction to refocus your goals and the way in which you implement them. You gotta see it to believe it. The K.I.S.S. ~ S.E.E. it to believe it!   "Why not give yourself the opportunity to see it? When you see it, you believe it, which in turn encourages you to repeat it." ~ Kristianne Wargo To refocus your goals and kickstart your healthy living journey, try implementing the S.E.E. it to believe it method. 1. SET Clear Goals: Define what you want to achieve and why it's important to you. Having clear goals gives you a sense of direction and motivation to stay on track. Don't wait a year from now when you may be wishing you started today. 2. ESTABLISH a Routine: Create a daily schedule that includes time for exercise, meal planning, and self-care. Building a routine helps to make healthy habits a natural part of your day-to-day life. Author John C. Maxwell once said, "You'll never change your life until you change something you do daily." 3. EMBRACE Progress, Not Perfection: Celebrate small victories along the way and learn from setbacks. Remember that it's okay to stumble as long as you get back up and keep moving forward. As I always say, "Life isn't about perfection, but learning to pivot with imperfection which makes every day a perfect day for your presence." By following the S.E.E. method and staying committed to your goals, you can create lasting changes in your lifestyle and experience the benefits of a healthier and happier you.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present.

When you see it, you believe it, which in turn encourages you to repeat it." ~ Kristianne Wargo To refocus your goals and kickstart your healthy living journey, try implementing the S.E.E. it to believe it method. 1. SET Clear Goals: Define what you want to achieve and why it's important to you. Having clear goals gives you a sense of direction and motivation to stay on track. Don't wait a year from now when you may be wishing you started today. 2. ESTABLISH a Routine: Create a daily schedule that includes time for exercise, meal planning, and self-care. Building a routine helps to make healthy habits a natural part of your day-to-day life. Author John C. Maxwell once said, "You'll never change your life until you change something you do daily." 3. EMBRACE Progress, Not Perfection: Celebrate small victories along the way and learn from setbacks. Remember that it's okay to stumble as long as you get back up and keep moving forward. As I always say, "Life isn't about perfection, but learning to pivot with imperfection which makes every day a perfect day for your presence." By following the S.E.E. method and staying committed to your goals, you can create lasting changes in your lifestyle and experience the benefits of a healthier and happier you.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As you find yourself at a crossroads, don't lean too much into the shadows of hesitation and insecurity. When in doubt, step out! In a world where self-doubt often infiltrates our minds and holds us back, the concept of taking action becomes a beacon of hope and a pathway to progress.   Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Taking that one step helps you to break free from self-doubt while propelling yourself toward your dreams. The journey of overcoming doubt and embracing moving forward begins with a simple yet profound shift in your thoughts, which leads to your behaviors defined by your mindset. It's time you take A.I.M.! The K.I.S.S. ~ Take A.I.M.! Stop bending to the feeling that you can't do something. Frozen is great for the movies, but not for your life! Take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation. And that motivation is fuel to your thoughts which leads to your behaviors defined by your mindset. Do you see how all of this is intertwined? 1. Acknowledge Your Fears and Doubts--By confronting and acknowledging your self-doubt, you strip it of its power. As author and entrepreneur Brendon Burchard once said, "The only way to get unstuck is to start moving." Action, regardless of how small, initiates a ripple effect that can dismantle the barriers of doubt. 2. Set Achievable Goals--Break down your aspirations into manageable tasks and milestones. By setting realistic and attainable goals, you not only create a roadmap for progress but also provide yourself with a sense of accomplishment with each step forward. As motivational speaker Tony Robbins famously remarked, "Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible." 3. See the Bright Side--Seek out individuals who uplift and encourage you on your journey. And when you fall, look at what you gained. Building your bright side network who believe in your capabilities. Flip the coin to the other side to see what you have achieved. All of this can serve as a powerful antidote to self-doubt.   "Take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation." ~ Kristianne Wargo The battle against self-doubt is won through intentional action and a steadfast commitment to your dreams.

Yet, in the craziness of your daily life, are you truly engaging with God? Or, are you just praying? When we approach God in prayer, it's essential to remember that He desires authenticity and honesty. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Philippians 4:6-7 ~ "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." It's not about just reciting words; it's about opening our hearts and minds to God, laying bare our fears, hopes, and dreams before Him. Too often, the word "just" creeps into our prayers, diminishing the power and reverence we should have for our Heavenly Father. The K.I.S.S. ~ Are you just praying! You must remember that prayer is a sacred conversation with your Lord and Savior, a direct line to the source of all comfort and wisdom. James 5:16 ~  "Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." Our prayers should be bold and heartfelt, not merely an afterthought or a routine task. "Prayer is not just about speaking words; it's about revealing your heart to the One who knows you best, your Lord and Savior." ~ Kristianne Wargo When we approach God with sincerity and openness, we invite His presence into our lives, creating a space for miracles to unfold and blessings to abound. So, take a moment to reflect on your prayer life. Are you truly connecting with God, or are you just going through the motions? Let your prayers be a reflection of your innermost thoughts and feelings, a genuine dialogue with God. Matthew 6:6 ~ "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Let your prayers be a beacon of hope, a source of strength, and a testament to your unwavering faith in God.

Yet, in the craziness of your daily life, are you truly engaging with God? Or, are you just praying? When we approach God in prayer, it's essential to remember that He desires authenticity and honesty. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Philippians 4:6-7 ~ "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." It's not about just reciting words; it's about opening our hearts and minds to God, laying bare our fears, hopes, and dreams before Him. Too often, the word "just" creeps into our prayers, diminishing the power and reverence we should have for our Heavenly Father. The K.I.S.S. ~ Are you just praying! You must remember that prayer is a sacred conversation with your Lord and Savior, a direct line to the source of all comfort and wisdom. James 5:16 ~  "Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." Our prayers should be bold and heartfelt, not merely an afterthought or a routine task. "Prayer is not just about speaking words; it's about revealing your heart to the One who knows you best, your Lord and Savior." ~ Kristianne Wargo When we approach God with sincerity and openness, we invite His presence into our lives, creating a space for miracles to unfold and blessings to abound. So, take a moment to reflect on your prayer life. Are you truly connecting with God, or are you just going through the motions? Let your prayers be a reflection of your innermost thoughts and feelings, a genuine dialogue with God. Matthew 6:6 ~ "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Let your prayers be a beacon of hope, a source of strength, and a testament to your unwavering faith in God. As you bow your head in prayer, remember: you are not just praying; you are communing with the One who holds the whole world in His hands.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Somewhere where failure is appreciated, where challenges are expected, where success is celebrated, and where two believe in one another. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Often, it's the sparkles of excitement and joy from the beginning of marriage. But after the honeymoon wears off, the reality of work sets in--the true commitment. Marriage is a road to somewhere where you can behold each other and learn to elevate one another. But it doesn't come easy. In fact, it comes at a cost. One has to give a little more at times, and the other must be open to receiving when not always wanting. It's a path that demands effort, understanding, and patience. The give 'n take, back 'n forth, and all arounds can leave you feeling dizzy, disillusioned, and desperate. However, you don't have to live in a world that scorns you for every failure in life; forgiveness does exist. Yet are you ready to extend it to your spouse? If you want to build your marriage on a strong foundation, your cracks have to be filled with forgiveness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fill the cracks with forgiveness! When you look at your foundation and see a crack, you have to fix it with concrete, something hard to hold it together, so it will stop spreading.  "Forgiveness is just that—the glue that repairs the failures of human actions that usually aren't intended to hurt, but still aims directly at the heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo So how can you fill the cracks with forgiveness? 1. LISTEN UNCONDITIONALLY—Honest and open communication is key to resolving conflicts and fostering forgiveness. Take the time to listen to your partner's perspective and share your own feelings constructively. "Talking should not be a war! Remember, communication is not just about speaking, but also about truly understanding each other's hearts." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY—Put yourself in your partner's shoes and try to see things from their point of view. When you love unconditionally, you don't set pre-assumed expectations. Let empathy be the heartbeat of your love, allowing you to connect on a deeper level, fostering compassion and forgiveness. Being able to understand and relate to each other's emotions can strengthen the bond between partners. 3. LET GO UNCONDITIONALLY—Holding onto past resentments can hinder the path to forgiveness. Learn to release grudges and move forward with a clean slate. It's your presence that matters. If you carry around all your sweetheart's trash every day, you will miss the blessing right in front of you, because all you see is the past. Focus on the present moment and the future you want to build together rather than dwelling on past mistakes. Today, I challenge you to embrace forgiveness as a gift you give, not only to your partner, but also to yourself. Forgiveness will expand your love and lead you on a road to somewhere.   "Be present.

However, simply being physically present is not always enough; it is the art of showing up. Parents may think they are always there for their child, but upon closer inspection, they realize that true presence requires more than just physical proximity. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How much of your day is truly dedicated to being fully engaged with your child? How often do you set aside distractions, put away your devices, and focus all your attention on your little one? We live in a world filled with constant stimuli and distractions, so it can be challenging to carve out moments of undivided attention for our children. We think we're present, but most of the time we're absent. But fear not! There are ways to cultivate genuine presence and connection with your child. To truly show up in your child's life, you must be not only physically present, but also emotionally engaged and attuned to their needs.  You've gotta create a deeper connection through emotional engagement. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a deeper connection through emotional engagement! Which means that it's not all about being physically present in the room. You need to be invested in your WHOLE child (emotionally, physically, spiritually, psychologically, and relationally). You want to be able to hit all five senses of your child so they know you are present. "The more senses you stimulate, the greater the engagement." ~ Kristianne Wargo Here are three key strategies to help parents nurture a deeper connection with their children: 1. Practice ACTIVE Listening: Take the time to truly listen to your child without any distractions. Put away your phone, make eye contact, and show genuine interest in what they have to say.  "Listening is an act of love that speaks louder than words." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Create PHYSICAL Connection: It's not about the amount of time you spend with your child, but the quality of that time. Make meaningful connections by engaging in activities that both you and your child enjoy. That means you are intentional as a parent, looking for opportunities to connect on a physical level.  3. Be Present with UNSPOKEN Love: In this case, you use actions, not words. Maybe it's a kiss on the cheek or a hug as they leave the house. It might be a sweet note written on the bathroom mirror or a note in their lunchbox. "Let your actions match your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo Showing up for your child goes beyond mere physical presence. It requires a conscious effort to be emotionally available, attentive, and engaged. What are you doing to engage with your child? What can you do more to engage with your child? Decide on one thing and go in that direction. Mom--you can deepen your connection with your children. Spread your love by showing up!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

To truly show up in your child's life, you must be not only physically present, but also emotionally engaged and attuned to their needs.  You've gotta create a deeper connection through emotional engagement. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a deeper connection through emotional engagement! Which means that it's not all about being physically present in the room. You need to be invested in your WHOLE child (emotionally, physically, spiritually, psychologically, and relationally). You want to be able to hit all five senses of your child so they know you are present. "The more senses you stimulate, the greater the engagement." ~ Kristianne Wargo Here are three key strategies to help parents nurture a deeper connection with their children: 1. Practice ACTIVE Listening: Take the time to truly listen to your child without any distractions. Put away your phone, make eye contact, and show genuine interest in what they have to say.  "Listening is an act of love that speaks louder than words." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Create PHYSICAL Connection: It's not about the amount of time you spend with your child, but the quality of that time. Make meaningful connections by engaging in activities that both you and your child enjoy. That means you are intentional as a parent, looking for opportunities to connect on a physical level.  3. Be Present with UNSPOKEN Love: In this case, you use actions, not words. Maybe it's a kiss on the cheek or a hug as they leave the house. It might be a sweet note written on the bathroom mirror or a note in their lunchbox. "Let your actions match your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo Showing up for your child goes beyond mere physical presence. It requires a conscious effort to be emotionally available, attentive, and engaged. What are you doing to engage with your child? What can you do more to engage with your child? Decide on one thing and go in that direction. Mom--you can deepen your connection with your children. Spread your love by showing up!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Don't relinquish your dreams and aspirations. Go beyond the noise! You could consider this noise the symphony of skepticism, and it can lead us into a maze, this labyrinth, of questions that echo through the chambers of our hearts: "Can I really do what I am created to do? Does my purpose truly matter? Do I, in the grand scheme of things, really matter?" Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    These questions, like unseen shadows in the night, can haunt us to the point of casting doubt upon the once-bright flames of passion that once flickered within. Yet, amidst the shroud of uncertainty, there remains a small, steadfast voice whispering in the recesses of our minds, urging us to press on, to seek out the embers of our purpose that still glow within. The K.I.S.S. ~ Go beyond the noise! In the silence that envelops us, where the noise of the world fades into an indistinct hum, lies the key to rediscovering our passion. It is in this quiet space that we have the opportunity to listen not to the shouts of external influences, but to the gentle murmur of our own hearts. Here, in this presence, you can sift through the clutter of doubts and fears, and really get to the core of your being, the essence of who you are and who you are becoming.  "In a world that silences the whispers of our dreams, may we find the courage to speak words of wisdom that echo through the corridors of our souls." ~ Kristianne Wargo This serves as a beacon of hope, a reminder that though the world may seek to drown out our voices, our dreams, and our value, we possess within us the power to rise above the clamor and make our voices heard. So, how do we keep moving forward, even when the road ahead is shrouded in darkness? How do we reignite the flames of passion that have been dimmed by the winds of uncertainty? The answer lies not in society's loud proclamations but in the quiet strength of your own convictions, the unwavering belief in your intrinsic worth and purpose; your reflection of who you are and who you are becoming. In the hush of solitude, find the courage to listen to the whispers of your heart, to heed the call of your deepest desires, and to step boldly into the light of your own potential. For it is in these moments of stillness that you uncover the truest, most authentic self, unburdened by the expectations of others and unrestrained by the chains of doubt. In a world that may seek to silence us, let us be the ones who speak words of wisdom, who sing the songs of our souls, and who dance to the rhythm of our own beating hearts. For it is in these harmonious songs of hope that you find not only your purpose, but also the unshakable conviction that you matter, that your dreams matter, and that your voice matters.

You have to want it bad enough to be dedicated to it more than enough. How do you navigate through the noise of doubt and uncertainty to be confident in what you do every day? What does your world look like? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Maybe it is a world filled with endless choices; it's no surprise that decision-making can be challenging, especially when striving to live a healthy life. The struggle with confidence and stamina can hinder our ability to make choices that align with our well-being. How do you navigate through the noise of doubt and uncertainty to create your now?  The K.I.S.S. ~ Build up your art of confidence! "Confidence is not about knowing all the answers but trusting yourself enough to make the best choices for your well-being." ~ Kristianne Wargo Here are three key steps to help you gain confidence in your decision-making process and embrace a healthier way of living: 1. WHO ARE YOU? Take the time to reflect on your values, goals, and desires. By understanding what truly matters to you, decision-making becomes clearer and more aligned with your authentic self. Psychologist Dr. Sarah Anderson emphasizes, "Self-reflection allows you to tune into your inner voice and make choices that resonate with your core values." 2. WHO CAN HELP YOU? Don't be afraid to reach out to mentors, friends, or professionals for advice and guidance. Surround yourself with a supportive network that encourages your growth and provides valuable insights. Seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. 3. WHO IS IN YOUR HEAD? Cultivate mindfulness practices such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises to stay grounded and focused. Building resilience in the face of challenges allows you to bounce back from setbacks and approach decision-making with clarity and composure. Kristianne Wargo stresses, "Mindfulness is the key to unlocking your inner strength and resilience. Embrace each moment with gratitude and awareness." Confidence in decision-making is a journey that requires self-awareness, support, and resilience. Ultimately, you have to believe in yourself! By incorporating these strategies into your daily routine, you can build the confidence needed to navigate life's uncertainties and embrace a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle.   "Confidence is not about having all the answers, but believing in your ability to make the right choices for a healthier, happier you." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present.

What if you slowed down in order to speed up? As Sam Levenson once said, "Don't watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going." Perseverance elevates progress regardless of the pace. In the journey towards achieving our dreams and goals, it's easy to become disheartened by the passing of time. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The monotony of daily routines can leave us feeling stagnant, questioning if our efforts are truly leading us closer to where we want to be. Yet, during these moments of doubt and weariness, the importance of perseverance and unwavering dedication shines the brightest. "The passion for your dream can't be realized until the push becomes your presence." ~ Kristianne Wargo When faced with the temptation to watch the clock and wish for time to move faster, it's crucial to remember that progress is not always measured by monumental leaps, but by the consistent steps taken each day. It's the accumulation of these small actions, done with purpose and determination, that propels you forward toward your aspirations. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo It's about nurturing that resilience within ourselves, refusing to be deterred by setbacks or delays, and finding fulfillment in the journey itself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't watch the clock! Building the "consistency muscle" is not about complacency or idleness; it's about embracing the power of incremental progress.  Each day presents an opportunity to inch closer to your goals, to refine your skills, and to cultivate the perseverance that will sustain you through challenges and obstacles. It's in the dedication to showing up, even on the days when motivation wanes, that we truly embody the commitment to our dreams. So, the next time you feel tempted to watch the clock and yearn for a faster pace, remember that true growth lies in the steady rhythm of persistent effort. Embrace the journey, no matter how long or winding the path may seem, for it is in the daily pursuit of your passions that you will find the strength to reach new heights. "The passion for your dream can't be realized until the push becomes your presence. In other words, you have to build that consistency muscle.

As Sam Levenson once said, "Don't watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going." Perseverance elevates progress regardless of the pace. In the journey towards achieving our dreams and goals, it's easy to become disheartened by the passing of time. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The monotony of daily routines can leave us feeling stagnant, questioning if our efforts are truly leading us closer to where we want to be. Yet, during these moments of doubt and weariness, the importance of perseverance and unwavering dedication shines the brightest. "The passion for your dream can't be realized until the push becomes your presence." ~ Kristianne Wargo When faced with the temptation to watch the clock and wish for time to move faster, it's crucial to remember that progress is not always measured by monumental leaps, but by the consistent steps taken each day. It's the accumulation of these small actions, done with purpose and determination, that propels you forward toward your aspirations. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo It's about nurturing that resilience within ourselves, refusing to be deterred by setbacks or delays, and finding fulfillment in the journey itself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't watch the clock! Building the "consistency muscle" is not about complacency or idleness; it's about embracing the power of incremental progress.  Each day presents an opportunity to inch closer to your goals, to refine your skills, and to cultivate the perseverance that will sustain you through challenges and obstacles. It's in the dedication to showing up, even on the days when motivation wanes, that we truly embody the commitment to our dreams. So, the next time you feel tempted to watch the clock and yearn for a faster pace, remember that true growth lies in the steady rhythm of persistent effort. Embrace the journey, no matter how long or winding the path may seem, for it is in the daily pursuit of your passions that you will find the strength to reach new heights. "The passion for your dream can't be realized until the push becomes your presence. In other words, you have to build that consistency muscle. It's not about doing nothing, but doing something every day!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Greatness cannot be reached until you embrace what paralyzes you; when failure becomes your success, you are living your life well. In a world obsessed with perfection, the fear of failure often paralyzes us, preventing us from reaching our full potential. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, it is essential to understand that failure is not the end but a stepping stone towards success. What have you been putting off lately? What do you need to let go of and just do something? Don't go through one more day expecting magic when what you need is movement. Take A.I.M. - action ignites motivation! The K.I.S.S. ~ Take A.I.M.! "To excel in life well, you must take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation. Stop letting what you can't control; control what you can control." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embracing imperfection and taking action are key elements to propel us forward in life. Here are three ways to let go of perfection and embrace taking AIM. 1. EMBRACE EXCELLENCE: Rather than striving for unattainable perfection, embrace your excellence, your imperfections, as unique qualities that make you who you are. "Perfection is an illusion that keeps you chasing the wind. Embrace imperfection, and you'll find freedom in authenticity." ~ Kristianne Wargo By accepting your flaws, you allow yourself the freedom to grow and learn from your mistakes. You give yourself permission to experience life in a manner that serves you well. It's not about getting it all perfect, but doing it to the best of your ability at the time of the season you are in. 2. OPEN YOUR FISTS: Trying to control every aspect of your life can lead to stress and anxiety. Instead, focus on what you can control and let go of the rest. "Life cannot be lived well if you are closed-fisted. Your heart slowly becomes hardened, fading to rest, flatlining to doubt." ~ Kristianne Wargo By releasing the need for control, you open yourself up to new possibilities and experiences. Letting go of control and not holding onto the results with tight fists makes room for opportunities. 3. TAKE A.I.M. - Action Ignites Motivation: A.I.M. is the antidote to perfectionism. By taking small steps toward your goals, you ignite motivation and build momentum. "Stop waiting for perfect conditions. Take imperfect action and watch your progress follow." ~ Kristianne Wargo Procrastination only hinders progress, so seize the moment and start moving toward your dreams. As you embark on the journey of letting go of perfection and embracing taking AIM, remember that failure is not the opposite of success but a part of the process. By shifting your perspective and mindset, you can turn setbacks into comebacks, walking on the stepping stones toward your success. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, "Action ignites motivation. Stop letting what you can't control, control what you can control. It's time to break free from the shackles of perfection and live a life filled with passion and purpose because of your presence." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Our priorities shift, our perspectives broaden, and our hearts open to the countless blessings that surround us. We see differently! Let us heed the call of Psalm 42:1-2, allowing our souls to thirst for the living God. Let us take intentional steps towards deepening our relationship with God, knowing that in doing so, we not only enrich our own lives but also become beacons of light for those around us. As we walk in God's footsteps, may we find solace, strength, sincerity, and serenity, knowing that we are always guided by an agape love, an unconditional love that is palpable.   "Be present.

Our priorities shift, our perspectives broaden, and our hearts open to the countless blessings that surround us. We see differently! Let us heed the call of Psalm 42:1-2, allowing our souls to thirst for the living God. Let us take intentional steps towards deepening our relationship with God, knowing that in doing so, we not only enrich our own lives but also become beacons of light for those around us. As we walk in God's footsteps, may we find solace, strength, sincerity, and serenity, knowing that we are always guided by an agape love, an unconditional love that is palpable.   "Be present.

One common dilemma that many couples face is whether to go to bed angry or resolve their issues. Are you sleeping with anger? According to recent surveys, nearly 65% of married couples admit to going to bed angry at least once a month. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    On the flip side, couples who make an effort to resolve their conflicts before bedtime tend to report higher levels of satisfaction and intimacy in their relationship. So, where do you fall? The age-old advice of never going to bed angry holds some truth, but is it always realistic? Psychologists suggest that burying emotions and pretending everything is fine just to avoid bedtime conflicts can actually harm your marriage in the long run. Sometimes, taking a break and allowing emotions to cool off before addressing the issue can be a healthy approach. If you find yourself boiling with anger and feel that having a conversation before bed might escalate the situation, maybe you should calm the sizzle. The K.I.S.S. ~ Calm the sizzle! Here are three strategies couples can implement to overcome their anger and find resolution: 1. LOWER THE TEMPERATURE -- Reflect on the facts and feelings. When you can separate the two, it allows you to gather perspectives that can help you decipher the situation at hand. This has nothing to do with your spouse, but everything to do with you. 2. CRACK THE CONVERSATION -- This is where you open the door and see if your spouse is ready to discuss the situation using active listening skills and seeking common ground. There is no room for "I'm right!" in this discussion. Truly hearing and understanding your partner's perspective can go a long way in diffusing anger. Communication expert John Gottman advises, "Listen with the intent to understand, not to reply." This is an opportunity to clear the air. 3. SEEK COMMON GROUND -- Find areas of agreement and focus on shared values to bridge the gap between conflicting viewpoints. You might need to consider a "both/and". "In the midst of anger, remember the love that brought you together." ~ Kristianne Wargo Navigating bedtime conflicts in marriage requires a delicate balance of addressing issues and respecting emotions. While resolving conflicts before bed is ideal, it's equally important to recognize when emotions are running high and taking a pause can be beneficial. As a couple, you can bridge the gap of anger and move towards a path of understanding and affection. Remember, in the dance of marriage, sometimes a pause can lead to a more harmonious rhythm.

Sometimes, you have to figure out how to live when life feels out of control. Sometimes, you have to lead when all you feel like you can do is retreat.  That's parenting for you! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But that doesn't mean you have to give up because it's hard. In fact, you have to buckle down and understand you're strong enough to continue. You have to realize that raising kids is not ever going to be easy, regardless of their ages.  So, what do you do when life feels out of control when it comes to your family? You gotta build from the ground up. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build from the ground up! The lemons keep coming; so you have to keep making lemonade the best you know how. Imagine your lemonade stand on the side of the road. For a simple 10¢, you can give a cup of crushed lemons that taste sweeter than the lemons you crushed. That's what you're doing with raising kids. You have gotta crush a few lemons that are thrown at you, season by season, stage by stage. And then, you get to taste a little greatness in the making. Oh, how sweet!! 1. SAVOR THE MOMENT -- Embrace the Unknown: When life doesn't make sense, it's essential to embrace the unknown and surrender to the uncertainty. Instead of trying to control the uncontrollable, focus on accepting the situation for what it is. "Sometimes the pieces won't make sense until you step back and look at the whole picture." ~ Kristianne Wargo Trust that clarity will come with time and patience. 2. LEAD WITH KINDNESS -- Practice Self-Compassion: During times of confusion, it's easy to be harsh on ourselves and fall into a cycle of self-doubt. Remember to show yourself compassion and kindness as you navigate through the challenges life throws your way. "Life may not make sense now, but be kind to yourself as you figure it out." ~ Kristianne Wargo Treat yourself with the same understanding and compassion you would offer to a friend in need, and then extend it to your children. 3. STAY THE COURSE -- Stay Consistent: Consistency is key when it comes to parenting. Stick to your values, rules, and expectations, even when it's challenging. By providing a stable and predictable environment for your child, you are helping them feel secure and confident. "Consistency may not be glamorous, but it is the key to success in parenting." ~ Kristianne Wargo When life feels out of control, that doesn't mean that you are. Take a deep breath. See what you can control and change what matters in the moment. You are a great parent in the making. Celebrate the lemonade as you honor the lemons, because this, too, shall pass.   "Be present.

The moment you are in is a moment. Accept that—this too shall pass, and seek comfort in the chaos. In swirling uncertainties and unexpected challenges, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the chaos surrounding us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The road ahead may seem daunting, but the finish line is a distant speck on the horizon. However, it is precisely in these moments of chaos and confusion that we have the opportunity to seek comfort, to find solace in the midst of the storm. Life throws us curveballs when we least expect it, tests our resolve, and pushes us beyond our limits. During these times, we must dig deep, tapping into reservoirs of strength and resilience we never knew we possessed. It's in these moments that you find out what you're truly made of, discovering depths of courage and fortitude you never imagined possible. The K.I.S.S. ~ Seek comfort in the chaos! Yes, the chaos may be overwhelming, the challenges insurmountable, but it is in these moments that we have the chance to redefine ourselves, to rise above our circumstances, and emerge stronger, wiser, and more resilient than ever before. Iron sharpens iron! Your character is forged, and your spirit is tempered by the fires of adversity. So, take heart, and do not lose faith. Remember that this too shall pass, that the storm will eventually give way to calm seas and clear skies. Embrace the chaos, for within it lies the seeds of transformation and growth. Embrace the discomfort, for it is in the struggle that we find our true strength. Batton down the hatches and hang on tight. Brace yourself for the ride of a lifetime. Embrace the chaos, for it is in the midst of turmoil that you will find what you're really made of. And remember, it is not the challenges we face that define us, but how we respond to them.

The moment you are in is a moment. Accept that—this too shall pass, and seek comfort in the chaos. In swirling uncertainties and unexpected challenges, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the chaos surrounding us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The road ahead may seem daunting, but the finish line is a distant speck on the horizon. However, it is precisely in these moments of chaos and confusion that we have the opportunity to seek comfort, to find solace in the midst of the storm. Life throws us curveballs when we least expect it, tests our resolve, and pushes us beyond our limits. During these times, we must dig deep, tapping into reservoirs of strength and resilience we never knew we possessed. It's in these moments that you find out what you're truly made of, discovering depths of courage and fortitude you never imagined possible. The K.I.S.S. ~ Seek comfort in the chaos! Yes, the chaos may be overwhelming, the challenges insurmountable, but it is in these moments that we have the chance to redefine ourselves, to rise above our circumstances, and emerge stronger, wiser, and more resilient than ever before. Iron sharpens iron! Your character is forged, and your spirit is tempered by the fires of adversity. So, take heart, and do not lose faith. Remember that this too shall pass, that the storm will eventually give way to calm seas and clear skies. Embrace the chaos, for within it lies the seeds of transformation and growth. Embrace the discomfort, for it is in the struggle that we find our true strength. Batton down the hatches and hang on tight. Brace yourself for the ride of a lifetime. Embrace the chaos, for it is in the midst of turmoil that you will find what you're really made of. And remember, it is not the challenges we face that define us, but how we respond to them. So, stand tall, face the storm head-on, and emerge victorious on the other side. Seek comfort in the chaos, and discover the strength that lies within you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Be cautious about what you believe; build your life on truth. In a world filled with misinformation and deception, building a life on truth has become paramount for holistic well-being.

When individuals commit to living authentically and aligning their actions with their inner truths, profound transformations occur on both personal and interpersonal levels. Imagine what would happen for you if you embraced truth, real truth. A. Fulfillment and Inner Peace: Living a life based on truth breeds a deep sense of fulfillment and inner peace. When individuals are no longer bound by deceit or pretense, they experience a profound sense of alignment with their values and beliefs. This congruence between inner convictions and external actions cultivates a lasting sense of contentment and harmony within oneself. B. Authentic Relationships: Authenticity is magnetic. By embodying truth in all aspects of life, individuals naturally attract genuine connections with others who value and respect their real selves. Authentic relationships built on trust, transparency, and honesty foster deep emotional connections and mutual support, creating a rich tapestry of meaningful interactions that enrich life experiences. C. Resilience and Empowerment: Embracing truth equips individuals with a resilient mindset and a sense of empowerment. When faced with challenges or adversities, those who have built their lives on truth draw upon their inner strength and integrity to navigate difficult situations with grace and courage. The unwavering commitment to truth instills a sense of self-assurance and confidence that propels individuals to overcome obstacles and pursue their aspirations fearlessly. D. Personal Growth and Evolution: Building a life on truth catalyzes personal growth and evolution. By confronting uncomfortable truths, acknowledging vulnerabilities, and embracing authenticity, individuals embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and self-actualization. This continuous process of growth leads to a deepening understanding of oneself, fostering resilience, adaptability, and a greater capacity for compassion and empathy towards others. E. Legacy and Impact: Living a life grounded in truth leaves a lasting legacy and impact on the world. Individuals who prioritize honesty, integrity, and authenticity inspire others through their words and actions, leaving a positive imprint on their communities and future generations. By embodying their values and truths, these individuals create a ripple effect of authenticity and empowerment that transcends personal boundaries and influences positive change in the world. In essence, building a life on truth is not merely a personal choice but a transformative journey toward an extraordinary life. Embracing truth in all its forms empowers individuals to lead purpose-driven lives, cultivate authentic relationships, and have a living legacy that echoes the profound impact of living with integrity and authenticity. From the food we eat to the thoughts we entertain, separating fact from fiction can enlighten your transformative journey. The K.I.S.S. ~ Separate fact from fiction! In essence, building a life on truth is not merely a personal choice but a transformative journey toward an extraordinary life. Embracing truth in all its forms empowers individuals to lead purpose-driven lives, cultivate authentic relationships, and have a living legacy that echoes the profound impact of living with integrity and authenticity. Get your stories straight. Stop thinking that all you need to do is listen to yourself. What if you were to talk to yourself with love and compassion sprinkled with some grit and grace? 1. KNOW WHO YOU SEE -- Cultivate Self-Awareness: The first step towards building a life on truth is to develop self-awareness. By taking the time to introspect and understand our beliefs, actions, and their underlying motivations, we can start discerning between what is true and what is merely self-imposed or societal conditioning. As author Marianne Williamson aptly said, "In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it." 2. KNOW WHAT YOU SEE -- Question Everything: To unravel the layers of falsehood that cloak our reality, one must be willing to question everything. Whether it's the information we consume, the relationships we maintain, or the choices we make, critical thinking and a curious mind are essential tools for discerning truth from illusion. As Socrates famously said, "The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." 3. KNOW WHO YOU WANT TO BECOME -- Embrace Authenticity: Building a life on truth also entails embracing authenticity in all aspects of our existence. You create a solid foundation rooted in sincerity and integrity by being true to yourself, honoring your values, and aligning with your innermost convictions. "Authenticity is the cornerstone of a life built on truth." ~ Kristianne Wargo As you continue to embark on the quest to uncover your truths and build your life upon them, remember that the journey may be challenging, but the rewards of living authentically far surpass the comfort of illusions, the lies you've embraced over your lifetime. Embrace the discomfort of growth, shed the layers of deceit, and emerge as the architect of your reality, built on the solid foundation of truth and authenticity. Build your life on truth!

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

In the journey of life, there comes a time when the wind of change whispers gently in our ears, nudging us to break free from the familiar and embrace the unknown. It's in those moments of uncertainty and doubt that we find our truest selves, rising above the expectations and limitations society tries to impose on us. As author C. JoyBell C. once said, "The only way that we can live is if we grow. The only way that we can grow is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn." Each challenge we face, each obstacle we overcome, is an opportunity for growth and transformation. It's through embracing change that we discover the depth of our resilience and the power of our spirit. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the wind! Breaking the wind isn't about tearing through life at full speed, leaving chaos in your wake. It's about forging a path that aligns with your values, your dreams, and your essence. It's about mustering the courage to step outside of your comfort zone and into the realm of endless possibilities. "Believe in the power of your journey. Embrace the winds of change and let them carry you to places you've only dreamt of." ~ Kristianne Wargo Each setback is a lesson in disguise, and each failure is a stepping stone towards success. It's the willingness to keep pushing forward, even when the road ahead seems treacherous, that separates the ordinary from the extraordinary. So, when you find yourself at a crossroads, unsure of which path to take, remember this: you hold the key to your destiny. Trust in your intuition, listen to the whispers of your heart, and have faith that the winds of change will carry you towards your purpose. Let your passions guide you, let your dreams inspire you, and let your soul be the compass that leads you toward a life filled with meaning and fulfillment. Embrace the unknown and break the wind. And always remember, as Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "In the dance of life, let your heart be the lead. With each step, with each breath, break the wind and soar beyond limits unknown."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life is about living in a manner that serves your heart and those you love most well. In the journey of life, there comes a time when the wind of change whispers gently in our ears, nudging us to break free from the familiar and embrace the unknown. It's in those moments of uncertainty and doubt that we find our truest selves, rising above the expectations and limitations society tries to impose on us. As author C. JoyBell C. once said, "The only way that we can live is if we grow. The only way that we can grow is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn." Each challenge we face, each obstacle we overcome, is an opportunity for growth and transformation. It's through embracing change that we discover the depth of our resilience and the power of our spirit. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the wind! Breaking the wind isn't about tearing through life at full speed, leaving chaos in your wake. It's about forging a path that aligns with your values, your dreams, and your essence. It's about mustering the courage to step outside of your comfort zone and into the realm of endless possibilities. "Believe in the power of your journey. Embrace the winds of change and let them carry you to places you've only dreamt of." ~ Kristianne Wargo Each setback is a lesson in disguise, and each failure is a stepping stone towards success. It's the willingness to keep pushing forward, even when the road ahead seems treacherous, that separates the ordinary from the extraordinary. So, when you find yourself at a crossroads, unsure of which path to take, remember this: you hold the key to your destiny. Trust in your intuition, listen to the whispers of your heart, and have faith that the winds of change will carry you towards your purpose. Let your passions guide you, let your dreams inspire you, and let your soul be the compass that leads you toward a life filled with meaning and fulfillment. Embrace the unknown and break the wind. And always remember, as Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "In the dance of life, let your heart be the lead. With each step, with each breath, break the wind and soar beyond limits unknown."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But what if you could understand their correlation; how do love and respect lead to success? Because the truth remains that love and respect, when practiced authentically and consistently, can pave the way for unparalleled personal growth and achievement. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    By understanding the profound impact of these values, individuals can not only strengthen their own resolve but also cultivate meaningful and lasting relationships that fuel their journey toward success. How do you manage your lifestyle when it comes to love and respect? Are you one who is quick to spout off four-letter words when you don't get your own way? Are you calm in stressful situations? Do you try to find common ground instead of always leaning toward, "I've gotta be right?" The foundation of success starts with love and respect for oneself. Self-love is not about vanity or arrogance but about acknowledging one's worth, embracing imperfections, and prioritizing mental and emotional well-being. "Self-love is a fundamental building block that shapes our attitudes, decisions, and interactions with the world. It's the key that unlocks the door to a fulfilling and successful life." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead with love and respect! When individuals lead with love and respect, they emanate a sense of authenticity and sincerity that draws others towards them. In building relationships based on these values, trust flourishes, communication deepens, and collaboration thrives. Respect for others' perspectives, experiences, and boundaries fosters a culture of inclusivity and understanding, creating a supportive environment where everyone has the opportunity to grow and succeed. To lead with love and respect, individuals can start by practicing the following: 1. WEAR SOMEONE ELSE'S SHOES -- Practice Empathy: Put yourself in others' shoes, listen attentively, and seek to understand their perspectives. As Maya Angelou once said, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."  What if you were to make sure that the people around you knew that you would do your best to see and hear them? Do you think that would change your journey to miles of greatness? 2. LEARN HOW TO BUILD A BRIDGE -- Set Healthy Boundaries: Honor your own needs and boundaries while respecting those of others. Boundaries are not walls but bridges that allow for mutual respect and understanding in relationships. "Respect yourself enough to set boundaries. Your relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have." ~ Kristianne Wargo What walls or bridges are you building? What ones need to be torn down? What ones need to be built and emphasized? 3. SHARE THE FRUIT OF GRATITUDE -- Express Gratitude: Acknowledge and appreciate the contributions of others, however small they may seem. Gratitude cultivates a positive and supportive atmosphere, fostering stronger connections and mutual respect. In the words of William Arthur Ward, "Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it." How are you wrapping your sentences when you speak with people? By embracing love and respect as guiding principles in both personal growth and relationship-building, you can unlock your true potential and create a ripple effect of success that extends far beyond yourself. "May the tone of your heart match the construction of your words to weld together the steel of success." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze." - Isaiah 43:2 In the midst of life's trials and tribulations, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and consumed by the challenging waters and fires that we face.

Yet, in the midst of it all, there is a powerful promise that brings light in the darkness. In these words, we find solace and strength in knowing that we are not alone in our struggles. God promises to walk beside us through deep waters that threaten to overwhelm us and raging fires that seek to consume us.

May you find peace in knowing that He has already conquered every trial and tribulation that you may face, and through Him, you can emerge victoriously.

Your spouse may comment that baths are the best. And now, you find yourself defending something that doesn't even make sense. It's just a bathtub! But the reality is that to us, it's not just a bathtub. It is feelings and emotions attached to tangible things that create our environment the way we know it.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    When someone comes in, even with a simple comment or remark, taking it personally is the real deal. It's like -- "Don't mess with my shower!" Where in your marriage have you gone to the extreme? Be honest-- you know where you have. Over time, this can really get into the crevices of the foundation in your marriage. These little jabs and pokes make you appear as if your game is the only game. That kind of attitude is going to get you in the doghouse or, worse, out on the curb. So, if you want to build a strong foundation, you have to remember that it's just a bathtub. See it for what it is. The K.I.S.S. ~ See it for what it is! 1. UNTANGLE YOUR THOUGHTS -- Don't vomit all over your partner if you haven't given much thought to your response. That can get you into a lot of trouble. 2. LOVE RESPECTFULLY -- It's easy to say you love someone, but what do your words and actions show? That is key. Be careful not to attack just because. Kindness goes a long way. 3. BE WHO YOU WANT TO SEE -- If you are quick to jump, then expect only the same with your spouse. It's important to have that personal check-in. Because it takes two to tango. It's essential for spouses to recognize that seemingly trivial matters can hold deeper meanings and emotions in the context of a relationship.

And now, you find yourself defending something that doesn't even make sense. It's just a bathtub! But the reality is that to us, it's not just a bathtub. It is feelings and emotions attached to tangible things that create our environment the way we know it.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    When someone comes in, even with a simple comment or remark, taking it personally is the real deal. It's like -- "Don't mess with my shower!" Where in your marriage have you gone to the extreme? Be honest-- you know where you have. Over time, this can really get into the crevices of the foundation in your marriage. These little jabs and pokes make you appear as if your game is the only game. That kind of attitude is going to get you in the doghouse or, worse, out on the curb. So, if you want to build a strong foundation, you have to remember that it's just a bathtub. See it for what it is. The K.I.S.S. ~ See it for what it is! 1. UNTANGLE YOUR THOUGHTS -- Don't vomit all over your partner if you haven't given much thought to your response. That can get you into a lot of trouble. 2. LOVE RESPECTFULLY -- It's easy to say you love someone, but what do your words and actions show? That is key. Be careful not to attack just because. Kindness goes a long way. 3. BE WHO YOU WANT TO SEE -- If you are quick to jump, then expect only the same with your spouse. It's important to have that personal check-in. Because it takes two to tango. It's essential for spouses to recognize that seemingly trivial matters can hold deeper meanings and emotions in the context of a relationship. You can build a stronger foundation based on understanding and mutual respect. Remember, it's just a bathtub. After all, a strong marriage is built on understanding and empathy, not just surface-level interactions.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Yet, it's important to keep it together. Hold on, for the rides get better. Don't give up; family is forever! As parents, finding the delicate balance between work, family, and personal growth can often feel like riding a rollercoaster with unpredictable twists and turns.

When the chaos threatens to overwhelm you, it's essential to remember one thing: family is forever, and it's worth holding on tight for the ride. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hold on tight for the ride! "Family is not an important thing, it's everything." - Michael J. Fox In the whirlwind of responsibilities and commitments, mothers often find themselves pulled in multiple directions. From managing schedules to nurturing interests, it can be challenging to create a harmonious household. To facilitate peace in the midst of chaos, here are three things parents can do: 1. GET CHATTY -- Embrace the Power of Communication: Create open lines of communication within the family. Encourage each family member to share their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. By fostering an environment where everyone's voice is heard, conflicts can be resolved more effectively. 2. TIME TOGETHER -- Prioritize Quality Time: Set aside dedicated time each day to connect with each family member individually. Whether it's a shared meal, a family game night, or a simple conversation before bedtime, cherish these moments of togetherness. Quality time strengthens bonds and creates lasting memories. 3. CARE TOGETHER -- Practice Self-Care: Remember that you can't pour from an empty cup. As parents, it's crucial to prioritize self-care and recharge your own batteries. Whether it's a quiet moment alone, a walk in nature, or pursuing a hobby, taking care of yourself is essential to being a present and patient parent. "Being a parent means sacrifice, but it also means growth." - Kristianne Wargo Fathers play a vital role in supporting the family structure, but they too can feel overwhelmed by their responsibilities. To support one another during challenging times, it's essential to communicate openly, lean on each other for support, and remember that together, you can weather any storm. In the midst of the whirlwind of parenting, remember to keep it together. Hold onto each other, cherish the moments, and keep moving forward, knowing that the toughest seasons of growth often yield the most beautiful blooms.

It's not time to cut corners. Time is given back when you do it right in the beginning. Build something to last!

But what if, instead of seeking the easy way out, you chose to build something to last? The K.I.S.S. ~ Build something to last! The true essence of success lies in embracing the fundamentals of life - the deep-rooted values, principles, and habits that withstand the test of time. "The fundamentals of life are not flashy; fundamentals are fireproof." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's in these foundational elements that our character, relationships, and endeavors find strength and resilience. When we prioritize doing things the right way, even when it's not the fastest or easiest option, we invest in our future selves. Each choice you make to act with integrity, to work diligently, and to cultivate meaningful connections is a building block in the construction of a life built, your blueprint, the divine design, to withstand challenges and stand the test of time. Rushing through life may offer momentary satisfaction, but it often comes at the cost of missed opportunities, unstable foundations, and unfulfilled potential. Your greatness may be left behind! Why settle for short-term gains when you can sow seeds today that will yield a bountiful harvest tomorrow? As author James Clear aptly puts it, "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become." So, let your choices be a testament to your commitment to building something to last—a legacy of integrity, perseverance, and purpose that transcends fleeting trends and momentary pleasures. Stay away from quick fixes and instant results; be the exception. Choose to embrace the journey, honor the process, and build something that endures long after the buzz of immediacy fades. Because in the end, the true measure of success is not how fast you go, but how far you can go with a foundation built to last.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Rushing through life may offer momentary satisfaction, but it often comes at the cost of missed opportunities, unstable foundations, and unfulfilled potential. Your greatness may be left behind! Why settle for short-term gains when you can sow seeds today that will yield a bountiful harvest tomorrow? As author James Clear aptly puts it, "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become." So, let your choices be a testament to your commitment to building something to last—a legacy of integrity, perseverance, and purpose that transcends fleeting trends and momentary pleasures. Stay away from quick fixes and instant results; be the exception. Choose to embrace the journey, honor the process, and build something that endures long after the buzz of immediacy fades. Because in the end, the true measure of success is not how fast you go, but how far you can go with a foundation built to last.   "Be present. Be incredible.

If you find yourself feeling stuck or in need of a fresh start, remember you're made for more.   Do you think of yourself in that manner? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

So why not consider a routine reboot? The K.I.S.S. ~ Routine reboot! If you're wondering when it's time for a routine reboot, consider the following signs: a lack of motivation, feeling stagnant or stuck in a rut, or noticing that your current routine is no longer serving your goals or needs. Changing your routine to align with the season and your personal growth is essential for your overall well-being. Each season brings unique opportunities for nourishing our bodies and minds. In the summer, for example, you might focus on outdoor activities, hydration, and light, refreshing meals. By adapting your routine to work with the season, you can enhance your connection to nature and support your body's natural rhythms. To sustain a routine reboot, consistency and self-awareness are key. By setting realistic goals, checking in with yourself regularly, and being open to adjustments, you can create a routine that works best for you. Remember, it's okay to start small and build momentum gradually. "Change begins with the willingness to try something new." ~ Kristianne Wargo To begin a routine reboot, start by reflecting on your current habits and identifying areas for improvement. Consider what aspects of your routine no longer serve you and where you'd like to see positive changes. Whether it's incorporating more movement, improving your sleep hygiene, or dedicating time for self-care, taking that first step is crucial in initiating a successful reboot. It's important to consider a routine reboot as a way to prioritize your well-being and personal growth. By embracing change and listening to your body's signals, you can set yourself on a path towards a healthier and more fulfilling lifestyle. Remember, routines are meant to evolve and adapt to our ever-changing needs and circumstances. Three things you can do to reboot your routine include: 1. Start your day with intention: Begin each morning by setting positive intentions for the day ahead. Whether it's through meditation, journaling, or affirmations, this practice can help you stay focused and motivated. As Kristianne Wargo suggests, "Setting intentions helps guide your actions with purpose and clarity." 2. Incorporate movement breaks: Break up long periods of sitting with short bursts of physical activity throughout the day. Whether it's a quick walk outside, stretching at your desk, or a mini workout session, these movement breaks can boost your energy and productivity. 3. Prioritize self-care rituals: Dedicate time each day to nurturing your mind, body, and soul. Whether it's through reading a book, taking a relaxing bath, or practicing mindfulness, self-care rituals are essential in maintaining balance and well-being. As Kristianne Wargo emphasizes, "Self-care is not selfish; it's a necessary investment in yourself." By implementing these strategies and embracing a routine reboot mindset, you can cultivate a healthier, more balanced lifestyle that aligns with your goals and values.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The possibilities lay in the mind; trust yourself. The mind has this powerful ability to both inspire and hinder, often playing tricks on us, convincing us to stay within the confines of our comfort zones. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if you could see beyond these self-imposed limitations and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead? What if you could silence the thoughts of fear and doubt, and explode into a nature of calm and consistent adventure? Now, that might seem like a paradox-- but sometimes what is magnificent comes from what appears muted or opposite. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unmute the greatness within! It's time to challenge the status quo and embark on a journey of stretching and growing. Here are three ways to face your fears head-on and step out of your own way: 1. JUMP IN NOW -- Embrace Fear: Instead of avoiding or suppressing your fears, confront them head-on. Feel the fear and just do it! Acknowledge the discomfort, but don't let it hold you back from pursuing your dreams. By embracing fear as a natural part of the growth process, you empower yourself to take bold steps toward the unknown. 2. LIGHT YOUR BELIEF TORCH -- Cultivate Self-Trust: Trust your instincts and believe in your abilities. As Mark Twain famously said, "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do." By trusting in yourself and your decisions, you open yourself up to a world of endless possibilities and opportunities for personal and professional growth. You get to see what is possible in the present. 3. TAKE A.I.M. -- Action Ignites Motivation: Break free from analysis paralysis and take decisive action towards your goals. As motivational speaker Tony Robbins once said, "The only impossible journey is the one you never begin." Make a commitment to yourself to push past your self-imposed limitations and take tangible steps toward the life you desire. Whether it's signing up for a new class, starting a passion project, or embarking on a new adventure, the key is to take that first step and keep moving forward. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Break free from the chains of your mind and embrace the limitless possibilities that await you." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's time to silence the voices of doubt and fear and step boldly into the unknown. "The path to your growth is paved with challenges and uncertainties, but it is in overcoming these obstacles that you experience your miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo So are you ready?

The possibilities lay in the mind; trust yourself. The mind has this powerful ability to both inspire and hinder, often playing tricks on us, convincing us to stay within the confines of our comfort zones. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if you could see beyond these self-imposed limitations and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead? What if you could silence the thoughts of fear and doubt, and explode into a nature of calm and consistent adventure? Now, that might seem like a paradox-- but sometimes what is magnificent comes from what appears muted or opposite. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unmute the greatness within! It's time to challenge the status quo and embark on a journey of stretching and growing. Here are three ways to face your fears head-on and step out of your own way: 1. JUMP IN NOW -- Embrace Fear: Instead of avoiding or suppressing your fears, confront them head-on. Feel the fear and just do it! Acknowledge the discomfort, but don't let it hold you back from pursuing your dreams. By embracing fear as a natural part of the growth process, you empower yourself to take bold steps toward the unknown. 2. LIGHT YOUR BELIEF TORCH -- Cultivate Self-Trust: Trust your instincts and believe in your abilities. As Mark Twain famously said, "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do." By trusting in yourself and your decisions, you open yourself up to a world of endless possibilities and opportunities for personal and professional growth. You get to see what is possible in the present. 3. TAKE A.I.M. -- Action Ignites Motivation: Break free from analysis paralysis and take decisive action towards your goals. As motivational speaker Tony Robbins once said, "The only impossible journey is the one you never begin." Make a commitment to yourself to push past your self-imposed limitations and take tangible steps toward the life you desire. Whether it's signing up for a new class, starting a passion project, or embarking on a new adventure, the key is to take that first step and keep moving forward. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Break free from the chains of your mind and embrace the limitless possibilities that await you." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's time to silence the voices of doubt and fear and step boldly into the unknown. "The path to your growth is paved with challenges and uncertainties, but it is in overcoming these obstacles that you experience your miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo So are you ready? Dare to dream. Fare to take action. Dare to believe in yourself. The possibilities lay not outside of you, but within your own mind. Embrace the journey ahead and watch as your life transforms before your very eyes. What you see, you can receive!   "Be present. Be incredible.

It comes from an open invitation, but have you RSVP'd? In a world where routine can become comfort, change can often seem daunting. We find ourselves content in the familiar, hesitant to step into the unknown. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if the path less traveled is where we are truly meant to be? What if, like Paul in the Bible, we too can undergo a transformation that leads us to our purpose, our destiny? In Acts 9:1-19, we see the incredible story of Saul, a man who once persecuted Christians, only to be struck down and blinded by a great light on the road to Damascus. Saul's encounter with God transformed him into Paul, a devoted follower of Christ whose life's work would shape the early Christian church. Like Saul, many of us may find ourselves stuck in our own ways, blinded by our own perceptions and fears. We resist change, clinging to what is comfortable and familiar. But God's plans for us may require a shift in perspective, a willingness to step out in faith and embrace the unknown. The K.I.S.S. ~ But have you RSVP'd? Payne Stewart was a professional golfer known for his distinctive fashion sense and remarkable skills on the course. However, his legacy goes far beyond his achievements in golf. Leading up to his tragic death in a plane crash in 1999, many believe that Payne Stewart experienced a profound spiritual awakening that transformed his life. Stewart had always been known for his fiery temperament and competitive spirit on the golf course. But as he journeyed deeper into his faith, he began to exhibit a newfound sense of peace and humility. Friends and fellow golfers noticed a change in him, as he became more focused on his relationships with others and less on his own success. In the weeks leading up to the plane crash that claimed his life, Stewart reportedly spent more time with his family, cherishing moments with his wife and children. He also made a point to reach out to friends and colleagues, expressing his gratitude and love for them in a way he hadn't before. Tragically, Payne Stewart's life was cut short in the prime of his golfing career. However, his newfound faith and the impact he had on those around him endured long after his passing. Many believe that his spiritual transformation in the final days of his life was a testament to the profound impact faith can have on a person, even in the face of tragedy. In the end, Payne Stewart's story serves as a reminder that true fulfillment and purpose can be found not just in success and fame, but in the relationships we cultivate and the faith we hold dear. His legacy lives on as a beacon of inspiration for those who seek to live a life of meaning and depth, grounded in faith and love. Have you RSVP'd? "Change is not something we should fear, but rather embrace as an opportunity for growth and transformation." ~ Kristianne Wargo Just as Paul's encounter with God changed the course of his life- just as Payne Stewart was changed too- you too have the opportunity to answer the call.  So, I ask you, have you RSVP'd to God's call for change in your life? Are you willing to step out in faith, like Paul did, and embrace the transformation that awaits you? The journey may not always be easy, but who waits for you is worth it. God is calling you today!

In every relationship, especially in marriage, there comes a point where the usual bickering and misunderstandings can take a toll. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The idea of "forever" suddenly feels heavy, and the once-bright future ahead can start to look dim. For many couples, finding themselves in a cycle of blame and frustration is not uncommon. You've got bills, responsibilities, kids, a career, pets, and the in-laws -- that's just to name a few. The pressure is real. And the thing is with us being so connected through technology, there is no mental break. Everything is always in your face, especially if you use social media. and are not just on it for entertainment. That's when the waters get murky, the comparison jumps out often, and second-guessing becomes your go-to. "Why did I even get myself into the situation?" Yet, in the midst of these challenges, there lies a simple but powerful shift that can change everything - a shift from pointing fingers to saying "I will." The K.I.S.S. ~ I will! Navigating the rough waters of a troubled marriage can be daunting, but it's essential to remember that change starts within. Look at who you are in the relationship. Instead of focusing on what your partner isn't doing, try to shift the narrative to what you can do to make things better. It's a small shift in perspective that can lead to significant transformations in a relationship. But it takes... <ul> <li>Work</li> <li>Energy</li> <li>Effort</li> <li>Consistency</li> <li>Vulnerability</li> <li>Openness</li> <li>Gratitude</li> <li>Unconditional love</li> <li>Forgiveness</li> <li>Reflection</li> <li>Determination</li> <li>Empathy</li> <li>Humility</li> <li>Kindness</li> </ul> It takes you wanting to become better than who you think you are. That means you are putting yourself in your place. You are now in timeout, as we would tell the kiddos. You have got to focus on the person you control. WARNING: Be careful who you talk to when asking for their opinions. If you have people who can't see all sides, then they are more likely to say, "There's nothing wrong with you." That naturally leads you to think you have nothing to change. And I'm here to tell you-- everyone has things that need to change! 1. BE KIND BEFORE OPENING YOUR MOUTH -- Practice Empathy: Before reacting to a situation, take a moment to step into your partner's shoes. Understanding where they are coming from can help you approach conflicts with a more compassionate mindset.  2. SHUT UP -- Listen Intently: One of the most common pitfalls in a struggling marriage is the breakdown of communication. Make a conscious effort to listen actively to your partner without judgment. Effective communication involves not just talking but truly hearing each other's feelings and needs. A lot of times, when our spouse is talking, we finish the sentences in our minds, which means we do not hear what is actually being said. And then you wonder who is mudding up the water? 3. BE WHO YOU ARE BECOMING -- Commit to Personal Development: Building a strong marriage requires individual growth and self-awareness. Work on becoming the best version of yourself, both for your sake and for the sake of your relationship.  By embracing the mindset of "I will," couples can take proactive steps towards rebuilding their connection and creating a more harmonious partnership. It's not about waiting for the other person to change but taking responsibility for your own actions and choices. You can only control YOU! "When you are married, it's not about doing life one way, but coming together to create a way." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, every journey has its bumps and detours, but with a willingness to shift from blame to action, couples can navigate through the storm and emerge stronger on the other side.

In every relationship, especially in marriage, there comes a point where the usual bickering and misunderstandings can take a toll. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The idea of "forever" suddenly feels heavy, and the once-bright future ahead can start to look dim. For many couples, finding themselves in a cycle of blame and frustration is not uncommon. You've got bills, responsibilities, kids, a career, pets, and the in-laws -- that's just to name a few. The pressure is real. And the thing is with us being so connected through technology, there is no mental break. Everything is always in your face, especially if you use social media. and are not just on it for entertainment. That's when the waters get murky, the comparison jumps out often, and second-guessing becomes your go-to. "Why did I even get myself into the situation?" Yet, in the midst of these challenges, there lies a simple but powerful shift that can change everything - a shift from pointing fingers to saying "I will." The K.I.S.S. ~ I will! Navigating the rough waters of a troubled marriage can be daunting, but it's essential to remember that change starts within. Look at who you are in the relationship. Instead of focusing on what your partner isn't doing, try to shift the narrative to what you can do to make things better. It's a small shift in perspective that can lead to significant transformations in a relationship. But it takes... <ul> <li>Work</li> <li>Energy</li> <li>Effort</li> <li>Consistency</li> <li>Vulnerability</li> <li>Openness</li> <li>Gratitude</li> <li>Unconditional love</li> <li>Forgiveness</li> <li>Reflection</li> <li>Determination</li> <li>Empathy</li> <li>Humility</li> <li>Kindness</li> </ul> It takes you wanting to become better than who you think you are. That means you are putting yourself in your place. You are now in timeout, as we would tell the kiddos. You have got to focus on the person you control. WARNING: Be careful who you talk to when asking for their opinions. If you have people who can't see all sides, then they are more likely to say, "There's nothing wrong with you." That naturally leads you to think you have nothing to change. And I'm here to tell you-- everyone has things that need to change! 1. BE KIND BEFORE OPENING YOUR MOUTH -- Practice Empathy: Before reacting to a situation, take a moment to step into your partner's shoes. Understanding where they are coming from can help you approach conflicts with a more compassionate mindset.  2. SHUT UP -- Listen Intently: One of the most common pitfalls in a struggling marriage is the breakdown of communication. Make a conscious effort to listen actively to your partner without judgment. Effective communication involves not just talking but truly hearing each other's feelings and needs. A lot of times, when our spouse is talking, we finish the sentences in our minds, which means we do not hear what is actually being said. And then you wonder who is mudding up the water? 3. BE WHO YOU ARE BECOMING -- Commit to Personal Development: Building a strong marriage requires individual growth and self-awareness. Work on becoming the best version of yourself, both for your sake and for the sake of your relationship.  By embracing the mindset of "I will," couples can take proactive steps towards rebuilding their connection and creating a more harmonious partnership. It's not about waiting for the other person to change but taking responsibility for your own actions and choices. You can only control YOU!

Who wants to be told what to do all the time? So, raise your kids with a smile in your heart by showing them that happiness lies in your actions. There is nothing better than being a role model for our children. The more they see, the more they imitate. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Now, that can be good or bad, depending on what they see. As parents, the way we behave and carry ourselves significantly influences the behavior and outlook of our children. It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of daily life and forget that our actions speak louder than words. Instead of constantly instructing our children on how to behave, why not lead by example and show them that true happiness lies in our actions? The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead by example! So, how are you modeling the behavior you want to see in your children? 1. SMILE MORE THAN YOU COMPLAIN -- Practice Gratitude: Teach your children the importance of gratitude by expressing thankfulness in your daily life. When you show appreciation for the little things, your children will learn to do the same. For example, say "thank you" to the barista at the coffee shop, or express gratitude for a beautiful sunset during a family walk. By practicing gratitude yourself, you set a positive example for your children to follow. "Gratitude turns what we have into enough." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. BE KIND IN SPITE OF -- Practice Kindness: Show your children the power of kindness through your actions. Whether it's helping a neighbor with their groceries or volunteering at a local charity, demonstrating acts of kindness teaches children the value of compassion and empathy. Simple gestures like holding the door for someone or offering a smile to a stranger can make a big impact. By practicing kindness in your daily interactions, you inspire your children to spread love and positivity in the world. "Kindness is free; sprinkle that stuff everywhere." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. LOVE YOURSELF SO YOU CAN LOVE OTHERS -- Practice Self-Care: Prioritize self-care and well-being to show your children the importance of taking care of oneself. Whether it's setting aside time for a hobby you enjoy, going for a walk in nature, or practicing mindfulness, self-care is essential for overall happiness and fulfillment. When your children see how you love yourself, they learn the value of self-love and nurturing their own well-being. Remember, you cannot pour from an empty cup, so taking care of yourself benefits not only you but also your children. "Self-care is giving the world the best of you, instead of what's left of you." ~ Kristianne Wargo As parents, we have the incredible opportunity to shape our children's worldview through our actions. Take what you've got and put it into action, Show them what values are and how to act with ethics and morals. Happiness lies in your actions. Now go spread the word!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Healthy living takes more than a plan. It's a daily lifestyle decision to live with purpose and presence intentionally. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the chaos of everyday life, which can often lead to feelings of overload. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From juggling work responsibilities to maintaining relationships and taking care of yourself, the demands can feel never-ending. However, to achieve a balanced and healthy lifestyle, it's essential to take a step back and evaluate what changes need to be made. This process goes beyond just focusing on the number on the scale; it's about taking a holistic approach to well-being. The K.I.S.S. ~ See beyond the scale! When it comes to overhauling overload, looking at the bigger picture is crucial. Here are three actionable steps to help you navigate your journey toward a healthier lifestyle: 1. THINK ABOUT YOUR WHY -- Practice Mindfulness: Take the time to tune in to your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. By being present in the moment, you can better understand your triggers for stress or unhealthy habits. As mindfulness expert Jon Kabat-Zinn once said, "Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way; on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally." 2. WHAT MATTERS TO YOU? -- Prioritize Self-Care: Self-care is not selfish; it's a necessary component of maintaining overall well-being. Whether it's carving out time for a relaxing bath, engaging in physical activity you enjoy, or nourishing your body with nutritious foods, self-care plays a crucial role in combating overload. 3. WHO CAN LOVE YOU IN THE MOMENT? -- Seek Support: Don't be afraid to reach out for help when needed. Whether it's talking to a trusted friend, seeking guidance from a therapist, or joining a supportive community, surrounding yourself with a positive support system can make all the difference in managing overload. As Brené Brown wisely stated, "Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it's having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome." "In the journey of holistic health, true transformation begins with self-awareness and the courage to take the first step." ~ Kristianne Wargo By adopting these strategies and embracing a holistic approach to healthy living, you can begin to overhaul your overload one step at a time. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, small changes can lead to significant transformations in your overall well-being. Start today and pave the way for a healthier, happier you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How do you formulate your thoughts to position your words to control your actions so you can have behaviors that, over time, give way to your habits that can change the world you touch? Why does life have to be so complicated? Why can't we dream what we want in our minds and execute with our hearts? Stumbling blocks are just a part of life. And sometimes, you just have to do what you gotta do to get the right things done. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get the right things done! In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's easy to get caught up in negative thought patterns that hinder our progress. You have got to learn how to shift your mindset with these three powerful techniques: 1. Practice Gratitude: Start your day by listing three things you are grateful for. This simple practice can help reframe your thoughts to focus on the positive aspects of your life and goals. "Gratitude softens your failures, removing the sting of the fall and giving hope for the comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Clear Intentions: Instead of dwelling on what you can't do, set clear intentions for what you want to achieve. You've gotta be intentional! Write down your goals and visualize yourself accomplishing them to create a pathway for success. 3. Embrace Failure as Growth: Understand that failure is a natural part of the journey towards success. Instead of seeing setbacks as obstacles, view them as opportunities for the comebacks to learn and grow stronger.  "Failure helps to build a stronger foundation!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, as Kristianne Wargo says, "Changing your mindset is the first step towards achieving your dreams and getting the right things done." But it takes one step, the first step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Get the right things done!   "Be present. Be incredible.

And sometimes, you just have to do what you gotta do to get the right things done. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get the right things done! In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's easy to get caught up in negative thought patterns that hinder our progress. You have got to learn how to shift your mindset with these three powerful techniques: 1. Practice Gratitude: Start your day by listing three things you are grateful for. This simple practice can help reframe your thoughts to focus on the positive aspects of your life and goals. "Gratitude softens your failures, removing the sting of the fall and giving hope for the comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Clear Intentions: Instead of dwelling on what you can't do, set clear intentions for what you want to achieve. You've gotta be intentional! Write down your goals and visualize yourself accomplishing them to create a pathway for success. 3. Embrace Failure as Growth: Understand that failure is a natural part of the journey towards success. Instead of seeing setbacks as obstacles, view them as opportunities for the comebacks to learn and grow stronger.  "Failure helps to build a stronger foundation!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, as Kristianne Wargo says, "Changing your mindset is the first step towards achieving your dreams and getting the right things done." But it takes one step, the first step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Get the right things done!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

What if you could have a sugar that feeds your heart and soul? In the meantime of life, rely on God's presence and the strength of patience. You're busy. The feelings of overwhelm drain you and cause you to become weary. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We crave instant results, instant gratification, and instant relief from our stresses. We want everything to happen quickly, seamlessly, and effortlessly. But what if I told you that the key to finding true strength, peace, and resilience lies not in the rush to the finish line, but in the gentle art of patience? The K.I.S.S. ~ The strength of patience! Patience is not about idly sitting by, waiting for life to happen. It's about actively trusting in God's timing, surrendering our impatience and worries to Him, and embracing the journey with grace and humility. In the words of the prophet Isaiah, "But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." ~ Isaiah 40:31 This is a great reminder that true strength comes from placing our trust in God's plan, even when we can't see the road ahead. Life's challenges may test our patience, push us to our limits, and leave us feeling exhausted and defeated. But in those moments of struggle, it is our unwavering faith and patience that sustain us, lift us up, and carry us through the storm. As we navigate the twists and turns of our journey, we must remember that the path to true peace and contentment is paved with moments of waiting, trusting, and believing. So, take a deep breath, dear friend, and lean into the strength of patience. Embrace the unknown with an open heart, knowing that every delay, setback, and obstacle is a stepping stone on the path to your journey of greatness. Allow patience to be your guiding light, your source of inner peace, and your wellspring of resilience. Remember, as I always say, "In the quiet space of waiting, you find the strength to soar." May your heart be filled with faith, your spirit be lifted by hope, and your soul be anchored in patience. Trust in the journey, trust in yourself, and trust in the divine timing of it all. The strength of patience will carry you through; one step at a time leads to miles of greatness!   "Be present. Be incredible.

How involved and invested are you emotionally in your spouse, or are you more absent than present? Unfortunately, after we get done dating and we've locked the relationship with wedding bells and rings, it seems that all the effort of investing in the marriage is tossed out the window.

Doesn't that sound like a marriage you want to be in? Probably not. And that's why we need to chat. Marriage takes two and requires effort from both parties. However, if you are getting what you want, why would you try harder? This is what happens when you have one spouse who is physically present, but emotionally absent. They do everything to keep you close enough without giving you everything you need. Literally, they are stringing you along.  They think they are providing for you, working hard for the family, and all you do is complain. They flip it on you making it your fault. They don't want to give anymore, but they want more from you.  It's when a partner like that is emotionally lazy. They're done. Now, it's all up to you to hold the marriage together. That is not a marriage! If you are in this position, you can't withstand this over time. Your marriage is dying. So what do you do if you are in this situation? The K.I.S.S. ~ Confront this dynamic in your marriage! In moments of emotional absence from a spouse, taking proactive steps can help bridge the gap and nurture emotional intimacy. Here are three strategies that can be implemented: 1. Set Clear Expectations: Establishing clear expectations for emotional availability and support can provide a roadmap for both partners. Communicate openly about your needs and boundaries to foster a deeper emotional connection. 2. Avoid Over Functioning: Rather than repeatedly pleading with your spouse for emotional engagement, focus on setting boundaries and expressing your needs assertively. Over-functioning can lead to feelings of frustration and resentment. 3. Accountability: Encourage open and honest communication about feelings and experiences. Holding each other accountable for emotional responsiveness can promote understanding and connection. In the ebb and flow of marriage, emotional stability acts as a cornerstone for navigating challenges and celebrating milestones together. It is essential for partners to be attuned to each other's emotional needs, dreams, and aspirations. "Emotional stability is the catalyst that fuels the journey of two souls intertwined in love and commitment." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embracing emotional presence in marriage means prioritizing understanding, empathy, and mutual support.

Imagine the impact if you embraced the power of celebration for your child. This is in a manner in which they feel cherished and valued for who they are and who they are becoming, not just because they are your "child." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As parents, we can bury ourselves in the busyness of life - juggling work, household chores, and countless responsibilities. Amidst this chaos, it's vital to pause and reflect on the importance of celebrating our children. Think about this-- What if you celebrated your child to the point that it went viral? We're all worried about getting noticed and getting one step ahead of our competition (whoever you deem as such). But we don't do anything to raise up our kids to be strong, independent individuals that will mightily impact the world they touch. We're just caught in our own CRAP of life. Yet, even when days get crazy, we still will go get those cookies or pizza just for the excuse to celebrate. What if you were to celebrate your child? The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate your child! So, how can we celebrate our children in a meaningful way? Here are three simple yet powerful ideas: 1. Notice and Acknowledge Their Efforts: Take the time to recognize your child's achievements, big or small. It could be congratulating them on finishing a challenging puzzle, scoring well on a test, or even showing kindness to a friend. By acknowledging their efforts, you are reinforcing the value of hard work and perseverance. For instance, praise your child for their creativity by saying, "I love the way you used different colors in your artwork. It shows how imaginative you are!" 2. Quality Time Together: In today's fast-paced world, spending quality time with our children is a precious gift, but we all take it for granted. Set aside dedicated moments to engage in activities that your child enjoys, whether it's playing a board game, gardening, or simply going for a walk together. This undivided attention strengthens your bond and creates lasting memories.

Imagine the impact if you embraced the power of celebration for your child. This is in a manner in which they feel cherished and valued for who they are and who they are becoming, not just because they are your "child." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As parents, we can bury ourselves in the busyness of life - juggling work, household chores, and countless responsibilities. Amidst this chaos, it's vital to pause and reflect on the importance of celebrating our children. Think about this-- What if you celebrated your child to the point that it went viral? We're all worried about getting noticed and getting one step ahead of our competition (whoever you deem as such). But we don't do anything to raise up our kids to be strong, independent individuals that will mightily impact the world they touch. We're just caught in our own CRAP of life. Yet, even when days get crazy, we still will go get those cookies or pizza just for the excuse to celebrate. What if you were to celebrate your child? The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate your child! So, how can we celebrate our children in a meaningful way? Here are three simple yet powerful ideas: 1. Notice and Acknowledge Their Efforts: Take the time to recognize your child's achievements, big or small. It could be congratulating them on finishing a challenging puzzle, scoring well on a test, or even showing kindness to a friend. By acknowledging their efforts, you are reinforcing the value of hard work and perseverance. For instance, praise your child for their creativity by saying, "I love the way you used different colors in your artwork. It shows how imaginative you are!" 2. Quality Time Together: In today's fast-paced world, spending quality time with our children is a precious gift, but we all take it for granted. Set aside dedicated moments to engage in activities that your child enjoys, whether it's playing a board game, gardening, or simply going for a walk together. This undivided attention strengthens your bond and creates lasting memories. "In a world full of distractions, choosing to be present is the greatest gift we can give our children." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Create a Positive Environment: Encourage a positive and nurturing environment at home that fosters your child's growth and self-esteem. Celebrate their uniqueness and encourage them to embrace their individuality. Teach them the value of kindness, empathy, and resilience. Empower your child to believe in themselves and their capabilities. Supporting your child in their journey of self-discovery nurtures their confidence and fuels their potential. In conclusion, celebrating our children goes beyond the superficial. It's about nurturing their souls, acknowledging their efforts, and empowering them to shine bright in this world. As parents, let's embrace the power of celebration and watch our children bloom into their full potential. "In celebrating our children, we celebrate the future." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present.

So fear not your circumstances, but embrace the hurdles as pebbles of hope. Challenges often overshadow our aspirations and crush our dreams. Our days seem more like the dark nights where hope can't be seen as easily.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's important to remember that every struggle is a stepping stone on the journey to greatness.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Life's challenges are not meant to break you, but to mold you into a warrior of resilience and a believer in the power of our own spirit. When the storm clouds gather above, casting shadows on your dreams, remember these wise words from the legendary Maya Angelou: "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated."  Each setback is an opportunity for a comeback, a chance to rise stronger and more determined than before. Embrace the hurdles that come your way, for they are the sparks that ignite the fire within you each and every day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the hurdles! So, when you are experiencing moments of doubt and despair, and the road ahead seems long and arduous, take comfort in the words of the esteemed Helen Keller: "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it." You are not alone in your struggles; you are a beacon of light in a world that sometimes feels covered by the shadows of darkness. "In the silence of your soul lies the strength to conquer any struggle." ~ Kristianne Wargo Your inner reservoir of courage and determination knows no bounds; tap into it, draw from it, and let it guide you through even the stormiest of seas. When the weight of the world threatens to overwhelm you, stand tall and face it head-on. With each new day comes a fresh opportunity to embrace the challenges, rise above the obstacles, and greet the world with a smile that speaks volumes of your indomitable spirit. The journey may be tough, but the destination is worth every uphill battle. Remember, the brightest stars shine in the darkest skies. Let your light illuminate the path ahead, and let your heart be the compass that guides you toward a future filled with endless possibilities. Embrace the hurdles, for they are the stepping stones on the path to your greatness.   "Be present. Be incredible.

From traveling to life's challenges to unexplainable situations, who wants to do anything different but hang out in the rhythm of comfort?  And then you wonder why. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You know-- the allure of comfort can be irresistibly tempting. Whether it's indulging in familiar foods, staying within our routine, or avoiding challenges that push us out of our cozy bubble, the rhythm of comfort often dictates our choices. But is this reliance on comfort hindering our pursuit of a healthier lifestyle? Because the rhythm of comfort is something that does just that-- it provides comfort when nothing else does. Why do you think you eat certain things or drink certain liquids? Most of it comes from comfort. "Comfort is like a warm blanket on a cold night—it soothes us and provides a sense of security. However, true transformation lies beyond the confines of our comfort zone." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Wrap yourself up in the blanket of change! To break free from the seductive grasp of comfort, consider these three actionable steps: 1. Embrace Change: Stepping out of your comfort zone often means embracing change, no matter how daunting it may seem. Instead of sticking to the same workout routine, challenge yourself to try a new fitness class or outdoor activity. For instance, swapping your morning jog for a pilates session can introduce a fresh element of excitement and wellness into your routine. "Change is the catalyst for growth. Embrace it, and watch yourself bloom." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Cultivate Mindful Eating Habits: Many of our food choices are driven by comfort, seeking solace in familiar flavors and textures. To break free from this cycle, practice mindful eating. Take a moment to savor each bite, paying attention to the colors, tastes, and textures of your meal. By being present during meals, you can cultivate a healthier relationship with food and make conscious choices that nourish your body. "Food is not just fuel—it's a reflection of how we care for ourselves." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Seek Support and Accountability: Stepping out of your comfort zone can be challenging, but having a support system can make all the difference. Surround yourself with friends, family, or a coach who can encourage and hold you accountable on your wellness journey. By sharing your goals and progress with others, you'll create a network of support that motivates you to strive for better. "Together, we are stronger. Lean on your tribe and let them uplift and guide you." ~ Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the delicate balance between comfort and growth, remember that transformation begins when you dare to step outside your comfort zone. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace change, cultivate mindful habits, and seek support to propel yourself towards a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle. "True growth lies in the discomfort of change. Embrace it, and watch yourself thrive." ~ Kristianne Wargo When you are ready to escape the rhythm of comfort, that's when you reflect the comfort of change." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

However, true transformation lies beyond the confines of our comfort zone." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Wrap yourself up in the blanket of change! To break free from the seductive grasp of comfort, consider these three actionable steps: 1. Embrace Change: Stepping out of your comfort zone often means embracing change, no matter how daunting it may seem. Instead of sticking to the same workout routine, challenge yourself to try a new fitness class or outdoor activity. For instance, swapping your morning jog for a pilates session can introduce a fresh element of excitement and wellness into your routine. "Change is the catalyst for growth. Embrace it, and watch yourself bloom." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Cultivate Mindful Eating Habits: Many of our food choices are driven by comfort, seeking solace in familiar flavors and textures. To break free from this cycle, practice mindful eating. Take a moment to savor each bite, paying attention to the colors, tastes, and textures of your meal. By being present during meals, you can cultivate a healthier relationship with food and make conscious choices that nourish your body. "Food is not just fuel—it's a reflection of how we care for ourselves." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Seek Support and Accountability: Stepping out of your comfort zone can be challenging, but having a support system can make all the difference. Surround yourself with friends, family, or a coach who can encourage and hold you accountable on your wellness journey. By sharing your goals and progress with others, you'll create a network of support that motivates you to strive for better. "Together, we are stronger. Lean on your tribe and let them uplift and guide you." ~ Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the delicate balance between comfort and growth, remember that transformation begins when you dare to step outside your comfort zone. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace change, cultivate mindful habits, and seek support to propel yourself towards a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle. "True growth lies in the discomfort of change. Embrace it, and watch yourself thrive." ~ Kristianne Wargo When you are ready to escape the rhythm of comfort, that's when you reflect the comfort of change." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

That feeling of being stuck, caught in a rut, or uninspired is real for many of us.  Maybe you're wanting a change of pace. Maybe you're yearning for more excitement or want to feel your heart come alive. But here's the thing—oftentimes, we settle. We settle for mediocrity. However, I'm here to remind you that it's time to shake things up. It's time to break free from the mundane and do something radical. "Don't let the fear of the unknown keep you from exploring the possibilities." ~ Kristianne Wargo Step outside of your comfort zone.

So what if you were to take those risks and follow your heart? Do you think it could stir up the passion and create your now that would have you smiling?

So, the next time you feel the tug of complacency creeping in or you feel stuck and uninspired, remember that you have the power to change your story. "Be the change for yourself!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Challenge yourself to do something radical, something that sets your soul on fire and lights up your spirit. Embrace the unknown, step out of your comfort zone, and feel the magic within. So go ahead, break free from the ordinary, and dare to do something radical. "Life is too short to play it safe.

Or are you hanging out with your self-doubt, your lack of confidence and enthusiasm because of what the rumble under others' breaths is telling you? Getting real with yourself is the first step to understanding where the hangup is. What if you shift your perspective and focus on what you can do right now? What if you embrace the power of choice and take a step forward, no matter how small it may seem? If you find yourself grappling with uncertainty and doubt about your current circumstances, it's time to reevaluate your mindset. What are you telling yourself? Instead of dwelling on what you can't do, let's explore what you can do to pave a new path. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what you can now! Create your now!!   But it's unfortunate that our dreams and goals get tossed aside to make room for complaints and the continuity of excuses. <ul> <li>Where did your age play a part in your success? </li> <li>Where did your money make you more successful?</li> <li>When did an excuse propel you forward?</li> </ul> The list goes on and on. You get to make a choice to move forward. You get to rise up to the challenge that you are made for more. So what's stopping you? Once you can grab ahold of that excuse, then you can take the next step. 1. Embrace Gratitude: Take a moment to reflect on what you already have and express gratitude for the blessings in your life. By shifting your focus to what you are grateful for, you can cultivate a positive mindset that empowers you to make bold decisions. For example, instead of lamenting about your long work hours, appreciate the opportunity to learn and grow in your career. "Gratitude turns what we have into enough." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Clear Goals: Define your aspirations and establish tangible goals that align with your values and ambitions. Break down your goals into achievable steps and create a concrete plan to make progress towards them. For instance, if you dream of starting your own business, outline specific milestones such as researching your target market, developing a business plan, and launching a marketing strategy.  "Goals give direction to our dreams." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Cultivate a Support System: Surround yourself with individuals who uplift, inspire, and encourage you to pursue your dreams. Seek guidance from mentors, friends, or family members who believe in your potential and provide constructive feedback. Connect with like-minded individuals who share your passions and can offer valuable insights. "Your circle should want to see you win. Your circle should clap the loudest when you have good news." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's essential to break free from the confines of "you can't stay here" and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead. By practicing gratitude, setting clear goals, and nurturing a supportive network, you can make the conscious choice to move forward and create a life filled with purpose and fulfillment.

(Exodus 3:6) Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How many times have you been in the presence of God and hid your face? How many times have you heard from God what you're supposed to do, but you hesitate with every possible excuse (i.e., too old, not enough time, not enough energy, not the right person, etc.)? Excuses can lead our day in the wrong way, especially away from God. And I don't think most of us really think of it as running away from God. But if we're honest, it's just that. The story of Moses serves as a poignant reminder that God's plans transcend age and expectation. At 80 years old, Moses received a divine call to lead the Israelites out of Egypt; it's never too late to answer when God calls. For many believers, discerning God's call can be a daunting task, it can be exhausting and confusing. The busyness of everyday life can drown out the divine whispers, leaving us questioning if we are truly aligned with God's will. It is during these moments of uncertainty that we must turn to prayer, seeking clarity and guidance in our journey.  "God's call may not always make sense to us, but it is our faith and trust in Him where the journey continues forward." ~ Kristianne Wargo These words remind us that sometimes the most profound callings are the ones that challenge our assumptions and push us beyond our comfort zones. As believers, it is our duty to remain receptive to God's voice, even when the path ahead seems unclear. The K.I.S.S. ~ Answer God's call! Reflecting on your own life, when was the last time you felt called to something greater? How did you respond? Did you embrace the opportunity with open arms, or did you shrink back in fear and self-doubt? God's call is not always convenient or easily understandable, but it is up to us to have the faith and courage to answer when He speaks. Through the story of Moses, we are reminded that God's timing is perfect, and His plans for us are beyond our comprehension. Whether we are young or old, experienced or inexperienced, God can use us in remarkable ways if we are willing to trust in His will. As you navigate your own journey of faith, remember the example set by Moses. Let us be open to God's call, even when it defies our expectations. For it is in answering His call that we truly find purpose and fulfillment in our lives. Why not step out in obedience and trust God, just as Moses answered the call at 80 years old, knowing that God's plans for us are greater than we can imagine. Don't miss your burning bush. If God is willing to take a chance on you, don't you think you should take a chance on yourself? Answer God's call.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How many times have you heard from God what you're supposed to do, but you hesitate with every possible excuse (i.e., too old, not enough time, not enough energy, not the right person, etc.)? Excuses can lead our day in the wrong way, especially away from God. And I don't think most of us really think of it as running away from God. But if we're honest, it's just that. The story of Moses serves as a poignant reminder that God's plans transcend age and expectation. At 80 years old, Moses received a divine call to lead the Israelites out of Egypt; it's never too late to answer when God calls. For many believers, discerning God's call can be a daunting task, it can be exhausting and confusing. The busyness of everyday life can drown out the divine whispers, leaving us questioning if we are truly aligned with God's will.

If you ever thought breaking up was in your cards, never accept the odds. As you know, relationships require effort, dedication, and a willingness to beat the odds.

Rather than accepting defeat, it’s crucial to take proactive steps to strengthen the foundation of your relationship and increase its security. You can beat the odds! The K.I.S.S. ~ Beat the odds! One way to beat the odds is by actively listening to your partner. Communication is key in any relationship, and truly hearing what your spouse has to say can foster understanding and empathy. For example, setting aside dedicated time each day to have meaningful conversations can deepen your connection and prevent misunderstandings. As Kristianne Wargo notes, "Listening is more than hearing words; it’s understanding the heart behind them." Another essential component of a successful marriage is prioritizing quality time together. In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy to let precious moments slip away. By scheduling regular date nights or engaging in shared activities, couples can reignite the spark and reinforce their bond. Simple gestures, such as preparing a surprise dinner or planning a weekend getaway, can demonstrate your commitment to nurturing the relationship. Moreover, practicing forgiveness and letting go of grudges is essential for overcoming challenges in a marriage. Holding onto past resentments can create barriers to true intimacy and prevent healing. By acknowledging mistakes, expressing remorse, and offering forgiveness, couples can move forward with a clean slate and a renewed sense of purpose. As Kristianne Wargo wisely puts it, "Forgiveness is not a weakness, but a strength that mends hearts and restores love." In conclusion, never accepting the odds means taking proactive steps to strengthen your relationship and build a secure foundation for the future. By actively listening, prioritizing quality time, and practicing forgiveness, couples can overcome obstacles and create a lasting, fulfilling partnership. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo reminds us, "Love is not a destination; it is a journey that requires dedication, effort, and unwavering commitment." So, the next time you feel the odds are stacked against you, choose to rewrite your story and create a love that defies statistics.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But if you don't allow yourself to fail, you will never see the other side, love. Let go of blame! As parents, we often find ourselves walking a fine line between supporting our children and losing ourselves in the process of raising them. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The pressure to be perfect can be overwhelming, and when things don't go as planned, it's easy to fall into the trap of blame. But what if you shifted your perspective and embraced the idea that it's okay to fail? By letting go of blame, we open ourselves up to new possibilities and deeper connections with our children. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Failure is not the end, but the beginning of love." Embracing this mindset can help parents navigate the challenges of raising children without losing sight of themselves in the process. The K.I.S.S. ~ Let go of blame! Here are three things parents can do to support their child without losing themselves in the journey of parenting: 1. Practice Self-Care: It's essential for parents to prioritize their well-being and mental health. Taking time for self-care activities such as meditation, exercise, or hobbies can help parents recharge and show up as their best selves for their children. What if you gave the world, and specifically your family, the best of you instead of what's left of you? 2. Set Boundaries: Establishing clear boundaries with your children allows you to maintain a sense of self while still supporting them. Boundaries help create a healthy dynamic and teach children about respect and understanding. Psychologist Dr. Brené Brown emphasizes, "Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves even when we risk disappointing others." 3. Seek Support: Parenting is a journey best shared with others. Reach out to friends, family, or a therapist for support and guidance. Connecting with other parents can provide a sense of community and validation that you're not alone in your struggles. In the words of author Brene Brown, "Connection is why we're here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives." In conclusion, letting go of blame can be a transformative step in the journey of parenting. By embracing the ups and downs, practicing self-care, setting boundaries, and seeking support, parents can support their children while staying true to themselves. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo says, "Failure is not the end, but the beginning of love."   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The pressure to be perfect can be overwhelming, and when things don't go as planned, it's easy to fall into the trap of blame. But what if you shifted your perspective and embraced the idea that it's okay to fail? By letting go of blame, we open ourselves up to new possibilities and deeper connections with our children. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Failure is not the end, but the beginning of love." Embracing this mindset can help parents navigate the challenges of raising children without losing sight of themselves in the process. The K.I.S.S. ~ Let go of blame! Here are three things parents can do to support their child without losing themselves in the journey of parenting: 1. Practice Self-Care: It's essential for parents to prioritize their well-being and mental health. Taking time for self-care activities such as meditation, exercise, or hobbies can help parents recharge and show up as their best selves for their children. What if you gave the world, and specifically your family, the best of you instead of what's left of you? 2. Set Boundaries: Establishing clear boundaries with your children allows you to maintain a sense of self while still supporting them. Boundaries help create a healthy dynamic and teach children about respect and understanding. Psychologist Dr. Brené Brown emphasizes, "Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves even when we risk disappointing others." 3. Seek Support: Parenting is a journey best shared with others. Reach out to friends, family, or a therapist for support and guidance. Connecting with other parents can provide a sense of community and validation that you're not alone in your struggles. In the words of author Brene Brown, "Connection is why we're here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives." In conclusion, letting go of blame can be a transformative step in the journey of parenting. By embracing the ups and downs, practicing self-care, setting boundaries, and seeking support, parents can support their children while staying true to themselves. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo says, "Failure is not the end, but the beginning of love."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Healthy bodies are the result of healthy living." ~ Dr. Mark Hyman The K.I.S.S. ~ Mind your margins! To truly mind your margins and cultivate a lifestyle that nurtures your health, consider incorporating these three key practices into your daily routine: <ol> <li>Nourish Your Body: Focus on consuming whole, nutrient-dense foods that fuel your body and provide essential vitamins and minerals. Incorporate plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats into your meals. As Dr. Hyman advises, "Food is medicine. What you eat can either harm you or heal you."</li> <li>Move Your Body: Regular physical activity is vital for both your physical and mental well-being. Find activities that you enjoy, whether it's dancing, hiking, yoga, or simply taking a brisk walk. Exercise not only helps you stay fit but also boosts your mood and reduces stress.</li> <li>Prioritize Sleep: Adequate rest is often overlooked but is crucial for overall health. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night to allow your body to repair and rejuvenate. Creating a bedtime routine, minimizing screen time before bed, and ensuring your sleep environment is comfortable can all contribute to better sleep quality.</li> </ol> Remember, living a healthy lifestyle is a journey, not a destination.

This holistic approach to health, encompassing diet, exercise, and sleep, doesn't just transform your body; it nourishes your mind and spirit, too.  "Mind your margins embracing the journey of nourishing your body, mind, and spirit.

The impossible standards and endlessly tweaking your work and goals become a life of ideals. Shift your perspective; done is better than perfect. What are you waiting for? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The perfect day. The perfect weather. The perfect marriage. The perfect house. The perfect bank account. The perfect kids. The perfect career. The perfect life! But what if we shifted our perspective and embraced the beauty of imperfection? What if we let go of the need for everything to be perfect and instead focused on simply getting things done? "Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence." - Vince Lombardi We live in a culture that often equates success with flawless execution. However, the reality is that perfection is an illusion – an unattainable goal that can leave us feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. In our quest for perfection, we may lose sight of the joy of creation and the satisfaction of completion. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! "Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it." - Salvador Dali As we navigate the ups and downs of life, it's important to remember that perfection is not the ultimate goal. Instead, focusing on progress, growth, and perseverance can lead to greater fulfillment and satisfaction. By embracing the mantra "done is better than perfect," we can free ourselves from the shackles of perfectionism and allow ourselves to simply do our best in the moment. "Progress, not perfection." - Unknown That's what we're headed for. Are you? Life is a journey filled with twists and turns, successes and failures. Rather than fixating on achieving perfection, choose to celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how small. Each step forward, no matter how imperfect, brings you closer to your goals and dreams. Done is better than perfect. Create your now! Remember, the creative process is inherently messy. "Art is never finished, only abandoned," said Leonardo da Vinci. This notion can free you from the prison of perfection. Accepting that there will always be a few rough edges allows you to release your work into the world, where its value transcends its imperfections.  As Kristianne Wargo once said, "Embrace the journey, celebrate the progress, and remember that done is better than perfect." So, the next time you find yourself hesitating, paralyzed by the fear of imperfection, remember that getting things done – even if they're not flawless – is an achievement in itself. Embrace the process, trust in your abilities, and take pride in what you have accomplished. Because in the end, done is better than perfect.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The perfect weather. The perfect marriage. The perfect house. The perfect bank account. The perfect kids. The perfect career. The perfect life! But what if we shifted our perspective and embraced the beauty of imperfection? What if we let go of the need for everything to be perfect and instead focused on simply getting things done? "Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence." - Vince Lombardi We live in a culture that often equates success with flawless execution. However, the reality is that perfection is an illusion – an unattainable goal that can leave us feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. In our quest for perfection, we may lose sight of the joy of creation and the satisfaction of completion. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! "Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it." - Salvador Dali As we navigate the ups and downs of life, it's important to remember that perfection is not the ultimate goal. Instead, focusing on progress, growth, and perseverance can lead to greater fulfillment and satisfaction. By embracing the mantra "done is better than perfect," we can free ourselves from the shackles of perfectionism and allow ourselves to simply do our best in the moment.

Instead, you embrace your current reality and hold on to the seeds you already planted. Begin where you stand. Whatever journey you're on with personal growth and self-improvement, the idea of starting from scratch can feel daunting. You become exhausted or overwhelmed before you even begin. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    With so much advice on radical transformations and overnight successes, it's easy to overlook the power of beginning right where you are. The key is understanding sustainable progress and lasting change. In shorter terms-- Create your now! As renowned philosopher Dr. John Demartini once said, "The foundation for everything you do in life is based on relationships. Begin with the relationship you have with yourself." This sentiment beautifully encapsulates the essence of starting from where you stand – acknowledging and nurturing the resources and opportunities that are already present in your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Focus on what is right before you! To focus on what is right before you, consider these three simple yet impactful steps: 1. Practice Gratitude: Take a moment each day to appreciate the blessings and lessons in your current situation. Gratitude helps shift your perspective towards abundance and allows you to see opportunities where you might have seen challenges. What do you know? What can you use and extend based on what you have? Gratitude helps to set your barometer to see what's possible in the work you're already doing. 2. Set Realistic Goals: Instead of aiming for drastic changes or unattainable outcomes, set small, achievable goals that align with your current circumstances. Incremental progress builds momentum and keeps you motivated along the way. You may be a big dreamer. But dreams take time. So, set those goals that help you gain momentum every day. 3. Embrace Your Journey: Accept that growth is a continuous process and that setbacks and obstacles are part of the path to success. Don't accept shortcuts. Embrace every experience as a valuable lesson that contributes to your growth and resilience. As you learn and grow, you are gaining territory that leads you closer to your dreams. "In a world obsessed with reinvention, remember that true growth often comes from nurturing the seeds already planted." ~ Kristianne Wargo This mindset shift can transform how you approach challenges and opportunities, empowering you to make sustained progress towards your goals. It's flexing that consistency component. Remember, you are not re-starting; you are beginning where you stand. By focusing on what is right in front of you, you can cultivate a mindset of gratitude, set realistic goals, and embrace your journey with authenticity and resilience.   "Be present. Be incredible.

When all hope seems lost, don't let the world pin you down–My God, the rock on which I stand. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety. ~ Psalm 18:2 NLT Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

In the tumultuous waters of life, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and lost. The waves of despair and temptation can get the best of you. Yet, in the midst of chaos, there is a steadfast Rock on which we can stand—God. Through faith and devotion, we can draw near to Him and allow Him to be the foundation upon which we build our lives. The K.I.S.S. ~ The Rock on which I stand! Finding solace in God's arms requires a conscious effort to stay close to Him. How do you stay connected to God every day? Regular prayer, meditation on His word, devotionals, Bible studies? God desires you to include Him in your everyday life. By cultivating a spirit of gratitude and humility, we can invite God to be the rock of our existence, guiding us through the storms and illuminating our path. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "In the embrace of God's love, we find strength to weather any storm and grace to rise above the sinking waves." Where are you placing your hope? Is it misplaced? Are you trying to fit God in a box to work for you? By centering our lives on God and allowing Him to be our rock, we can find peace in the midst of uncertainty, strength in times of weakness, and hope in moments of despair. As we deepen our connection to God, we discover a source of unwavering support and comfort that transcends all earthly concerns. May we take refuge in the Rock of our salvation, knowing that in His presence, we stand firm and unshakable, no matter what trials may come our way.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The K.I.S.S. ~ The Rock on which I stand! Finding solace in God's arms requires a conscious effort to stay close to Him. How do you stay connected to God every day? Regular prayer, meditation on His word, devotionals, Bible studies? God desires you to include Him in your everyday life. By cultivating a spirit of gratitude and humility, we can invite God to be the rock of our existence, guiding us through the storms and illuminating our path. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "In the embrace of God's love, we find strength to weather any storm and grace to rise above the sinking waves." Where are you placing your hope? Is it misplaced? Are you trying to fit God in a box to work for you? By centering our lives on God and allowing Him to be our rock, we can find peace in the midst of uncertainty, strength in times of weakness, and hope in moments of despair. As we deepen our connection to God, we discover a source of unwavering support and comfort that transcends all earthly concerns. May we take refuge in the Rock of our salvation, knowing that in His presence, we stand firm and unshakable, no matter what trials may come our way.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But the art of romance in marriage goes beyond these clichés in maintaining a strong and loving bond. Think about how you define romance, specifically romance in your marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    To define romance in the context of marriage, we can look at it as the intentional nurturing of love, intimacy, and connection between spouses. It involves making each other feel special, appreciated, and cherished on a regular basis. In marriage, romance is not just about sparks and butterflies; it's about building a deep and enduring emotional connection with your partner. Also, think about how you see romance now versus how you saw it before you were married. Was it different? What has changed? Romancing your spouse doesn't have to be extravagant or expensive; it's the thought and effort that counts the most. It's about building your romance on a daily basis! The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead with vision! Small, meaningful gestures done consistently can keep the flame of romance alive in a marriage. Here are three simple yet effective ways to romance your spouse: 1. Surprise Them: Whether it's a spontaneous love note left on the mirror or a surprise breakfast in bed, unexpected gestures can reignite the spark in your relationship. As relationship coach John Gottman puts it, "It's the small, everyday acts of kindness and affection that make a marriage strong." 2. Quality Time: In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy to let quality time with your spouse fall by the wayside. Make a conscious effort to spend uninterrupted time together, whether it's watching a movie, taking a walk, or having a heartfelt conversation. As marriage expert Dr. Gary Chapman advises, "Quality time is essential in keeping the love alive." 3. Physical Touch: Physical intimacy is a crucial aspect of romance in marriage. Simple gestures like holding hands, hugging, or snuggling on the couch can communicate love and affection in a powerful way. As renowned author Maya Angelou once said, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." How do you make your spouse feel? Extra thoughts: 1. Be aware of your environment.  2. Stay committed to your relationship so your passion doesn’t turn somewhere else. 3. Don't pressure your spouse to be everything. Find other ways to feel whole. 4. What you put into your marriage is what you will get out of it. "Romance is the heart's way of saying 'I see you, I cherish you, and I choose you every day.'" ~ Kristianne Wargo By prioritizing romance in marriage through thoughtful gestures, quality time, and physical touch, couples can strengthen their bond and create a love that stands the test of time.

The selflessness ingrained in motherhood often leads to neglecting yourself. However, there comes a moment when you matter more than your child. There comes a moment when you must recognize that taking care of yourself is not an act of selfishness, but a necessity for effective parenting. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the journey of motherhood, when you matter more than your child, you comprehend that nurturing yourself is crucial for providing the best care for your little ones. It's about understanding that your self-love directly impacts your ability to love and support your children unconditionally. "Self-care is not selfish; you cannot serve from an empty vessel." - Eleanor Brown The K.I.S.S. ~ What does your reflection say about you? Here are three things mothers can do to pay attention to who they are and who they are becoming: 1. Prioritize 'Me' Time: Carve out moments in your day for self-care activities that rejuvenate your spirit. It could be reading a book, going for a walk, practicing yoga, or simply enjoying a quiet cup of tea. Allocating time for yourself allows you to recharge, regroup, and show up as the best version of yourself for your children. 2. Seek Personal Growth: Engage in activities that stimulate your mind and nurture your passions. Whether it's taking up a new hobby, pursuing further education, or attending workshops, investing in your personal development not only enriches your life but also sets a positive example for your children on the significance of continuous learning and growth. 3. Connect with Support Systems: Surround yourself with a community of like-minded individuals who uplift and inspire you. Whether it's joining moms' groups, seeking therapy, or establishing strong friendships, having a support system is essential for your emotional well-being. Sharing experiences with others can offer valuable perspectives and remind you that you are not alone in your journey. "Nurture yourself so you can nurture your children with a full heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, being a mother is a significant role, but it doesn't mean sacrificing your own needs entirely. By recognizing the importance of self-care, personal growth, and a supportive community, you can cultivate a harmonious balance between caring for yourself and caring for your children, creating a nurturing environment where everyone thrives.

We try to reason out why it went wrong and what should have been done differently. But what if you chose to magnify what matters? In a world where negativity seems to loom in every corner, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of what goes wrong. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From missed opportunities to failed expectations, it's human nature to dissect every detail of our setbacks. But what if? What if you chose to magnify what truly matters? Embracing this pivot in your mind opens up the space to a world filled with gratitude, joy, and fulfillment. It's like "Yea-- nothing is impossible!" Instead of dwelling on the cracks in the pavement, focus on the blossoming flowers that peek through. Rather than fixating on the stormy skies, marvel at the vibrant hues of the rainbow that follows. As Albert Einstein famously said, "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle." What miracle do you want to see today? What will you let light up your heart? The K.I.S.S. ~ Magnify what matters! "In the tapestry of life, focus on the vibrant threads that weave your masterpiece." By choosing to magnify what matters, you cultivate a mindset rooted in positivity and resilience. It's that determination that keeps you going. Every challenge becomes a stepping stone, every setback a lesson learned. As Melody Beattie aptly puts it, "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough and more." So, as you navigate through the ebb and flow of life, remember to magnify what truly matters. Find solace in the small moments of joy, embrace the beauty of imperfection, and revel in the wonder of simply being alive. You have breath! So celebrate life. No, it's not going to be perfect but you have a life to live. That's a blessing! In the wise words of Kristianne Wargo, "Amidst the chaos, find your calm. In the darkness, be the light.

We try to reason out why it went wrong and what should have been done differently. But what if you chose to magnify what matters? In a world where negativity seems to loom in every corner, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of what goes wrong. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From missed opportunities to failed expectations, it's human nature to dissect every detail of our setbacks. But what if? What if you chose to magnify what truly matters? Embracing this pivot in your mind opens up the space to a world filled with gratitude, joy, and fulfillment. It's like "Yea-- nothing is impossible!" Instead of dwelling on the cracks in the pavement, focus on the blossoming flowers that peek through. Rather than fixating on the stormy skies, marvel at the vibrant hues of the rainbow that follows. As Albert Einstein famously said, "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle." What miracle do you want to see today? What will you let light up your heart? The K.I.S.S. ~ Magnify what matters! "In the tapestry of life, focus on the vibrant threads that weave your masterpiece." By choosing to magnify what matters, you cultivate a mindset rooted in positivity and resilience. It's that determination that keeps you going. Every challenge becomes a stepping stone, every setback a lesson learned. As Melody Beattie aptly puts it, "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough and more." So, as you navigate through the ebb and flow of life, remember to magnify what truly matters. Find solace in the small moments of joy, embrace the beauty of imperfection, and revel in the wonder of simply being alive. You have breath! So celebrate life. No, it's not going to be perfect but you have a life to live. That's a blessing! In the wise words of Kristianne Wargo, "Amidst the chaos, find your calm. In the darkness, be the light. Magnify what matters, for there is where you gain true sight."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Imagine, though, how quickly you create another habit, good or bad, when it comes to healthy living. This is not a good day to start a new addiction. When you make the commitment to change the way you live, it takes work.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

And within those goals, you had to make some changes that weren't working for you before.  But just as you make changes for the bad, you then assume to make new changes for the good. However, what if your "good" is more "bad"? Confused? Yes, that's why healthy living is not an easy feat. Just when you have cured one habit, you have to check the new ones. So what do you do? Well, you do your best to stay on track! The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay on T.R.A.C.K.! This is not a good day to start a new addiction! 1. Trim the excess - What is not working for you? Get rid of it. Do away with the activities or actions that don't work. 2. Release the guilt - Stop holding on to all your mistakes and failures. Who cares if this is the 14th time you've tried to get healthier? Look at this as your first time. 3. Acquire the hope - Do what works right now! You've gotta figure out what works in this season of life. 4. Commit to change - Change is a constant. Don't get stuck in trying to be perfect. Do what works for YOU! 5. Know freedom - You have to look at what you have to gain. What are you adding to your life?

Listen and Lead - Where are you going? If you don't know where you are, it's hard to shift your direction. So keep an open mind. Listen intentionally, and then lead with a determined response. 3. Launch and Lift - Why do you want to go? When you attach the reason you do what you do, that's when your secret sauce is found. So attach yourself to your why, not the outcomes or results.

Be careful not to let the world distract you. Be careful not to let what is happening around you distract you from God. We can be so consumed by the craziness and busyness that we forget to connect with God. Get on your knees and ask God for direction. Lean in to discern what God desires for you.

Imagine enjoying food without all the guilt. Or is there such a thing as guilt-free eating? What if you could enjoy food while still maintaining a healthy lifestyle? Maybe guilt-free eating is the answer – the secret to savoring every bite without compromising your well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Gone are the days of restrictive diets and constant calorie counting. Guilt-free eating is all about finding balance, making mindful choices, and treating yourself in a way that aligns with your health goals. It's about nourishing your body and soul without any feelings of regret or deprivation. But does it really work? The answer is a resounding yes. By embracing guilt-free eating, you not only free yourself from the shackles of guilt and shame surrounding food, but also cultivate a positive relationship with eating. This mindset shift can have a profound impact on your overall health and well-being. Imagine enjoying a piece of chocolate cake without the mental tally of calories consumed. Picture savoring a slice of pizza with friends without worrying about how it will affect your weight. With guilt-free eating, these scenarios can become a reality, allowing you to truly relish in the joy of food without the burden of guilt. So how can you start incorporating guilt-free eating into your life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Eat without the guilt! Let's look at what you can do to eat without the guilt. Now there is a concern. You have to be willing to get to know your body and listen intentionally to the cues it gives you. If you can do that, you can eat without the guilt. MINDFULNESS 1. Start with gratitude: Before each meal, take a moment to appreciate the food in front of you. Consider where it came from, how it nourishes your body, and the effort that went into preparing it. 2. Engage your senses: As you eat, pay attention to the colors, textures, flavors, and smells of your food. Chew slowly, savoring each bite, and fully experiencing the sensory pleasure of eating. 3. Practice mindful eating: Take the time to sit down at a table and focus solely on your meal. Avoid distractions like screens or multitasking, allowing yourself to truly be present and enjoy the experience of eating. MODERATION 1. Portion control: Use smaller plates and bowls to help control portion sizes. Be mindful of serving sizes and listen to your body's hunger cues to prevent overeating. 2. Plan indulgences: Enjoy your favorite treats in moderation by scheduling them into your week. This allows you to look forward to and fully appreciate these indulgences without guilt. 3. Create balanced meals: Aim to include a variety of food groups in each meal, such as lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats. Balancing your plate can help you feel satisfied and nourished without overeating. SELF-COMPASSION 1. Challenge negative self-talk: Replace self-critical thoughts with kind and compassionate statements. Remind yourself that it's okay to indulge occasionally and that your worth is not defined by your food choices. 2. Practice forgiveness: If you find yourself feeling guilty about a meal or snack, forgive yourself and move on. Remember that everyone has moments of indulgence, and it's important to show yourself grace and understanding. 3. Focus on progress, not perfection: Recognize that establishing a healthy relationship with food is a journey. Celebrate small victories along the way and acknowledge the positive changes you're making in your eating habits. When you incorporate mindfulness, moderation, and self-compassion into your daily routine, you can cultivate a positive and sustainable approach to eating. Remember that guilt-free eating is about nourishing your body, enjoying food without guilt, and treating yourself with kindness and understanding. With practice and patience, you can embrace a healthier relationship with food that supports your overall well-being. Isn't that ultimately what you want? Don't let guilt dictate your relationship with food any longer. Embrace guilt-free eating as the key to unlocking a healthier lifestyle filled with joy, satisfaction, and balance. It's time to indulge in the foods you love without the weight of guilt; that's one number you don't want to focus on. And your body and mind will thank you for it.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Every stumble, setback, and moment of defeat can serve as a valuable lesson that propels you forward. Anchor your stepping stones. In life, setbacks and failures can often shake us to our core, leaving us feeling lost and unsure of our next steps. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You've probably experienced failure, and maybe all too recently, that knocked you off your feet. Instead of giving in to defeat, choose to rise up, dust yourself off, and appreciate the valuable lessons that failure offers.  Now, in the moment, failure doesn't seem positive. In fact, it's devastating most of the time. But put a twist on life. Set your feelings free to see that there is more to life than defeat. "You can succeed when you fail!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Anchor your stepping stones! But it comes to how you lead with your mind, how you anchor your stepping stones. You can walk the river on top of the rocks that peak just above the water. But if you go too fast, you might slip and fall on the moss that has grown on it over the years. In the face of failure, anchoring ourselves to the lessons learned along the way is crucial. These lessons act as guiding lights; it's like you can see the path more clearly. This makes room in your mind to experience hope, when standing in the middle of despair. So why not embrace failure as a teacher so you can empower yourself to grow, learn, and ultimately thrive? Remember, the journey from failure to success is not linear; it is a winding road filled with twists, turns, and unexpected challenges. Anchoring yourself to the wisdom gained from failure enables you to navigate this unpredictable terrain with grace and resilience. With each setback, you have the opportunity to anchor another stepping stone in your path, building a foundation of experience, knowledge, and fortitude that will carry you forward. Don't allow yourself to flounder in the face of failure. Don't give in to doubt. Don't let your enthusiasm fall because something didn't go your way. Failure may stir up uncertainty. "When you don't have a clear answer, remain strong because you have anchored your stepping stones. Nothing is impossible until you quit." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, the next time you face failure, embrace the lessons learned, stay steadfast in your resolve, and trust in your ability to rise up.

Many people impress upon us what we can and cannot do. Don't let life's score get you down. However, that's exactly what we do. We surf our reels and discover how much we lack and what we need more of. We scroll through our Facebook feeds only to wish we were in a different position in life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How unfair is life? Or is it? Maybe it's simply our perspective on how we choose to show up in our lives. What if you knew who you are and who you are becoming?  You get to set the stage and show up the way God created you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! Stop relying on other people's opinions and allowing them to dictate what you are capable of. Your abilities, gifts, and talents are yours to determine and discover. So unbury what you thought wasn't possible, and look for the opportunity to try again. This is your life to live. Life's score does not get the final number. You got this! What can you do to create your now and not get rattled by what others think and how they score your life: 1. **Believe in Yourself**: Your self-worth is not determined by others' opinions. Trust in your abilities and let your inner voice guide you towards your goals. 2. **Focus on Your Journey**: Comparison is the thief of joy. Instead of worrying about how others perceive your life's score, concentrate on your progress, growth, and personal development. 3. **Surround Yourself with Positivity**: Surround yourself with individuals who uplift and support you.

Many people impress upon us what we can and cannot do. Don't let life's score get you down. However, that's exactly what we do. We surf our reels and discover how much we lack and what we need more of. We scroll through our Facebook feeds only to wish we were in a different position in life.

Or is it? Maybe it's simply our perspective on how we choose to show up in our lives. What if you knew who you are and who you are becoming?  You get to set the stage and show up the way God created you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! Stop relying on other people's opinions and allowing them to dictate what you are capable of. Your abilities, gifts, and talents are yours to determine and discover. So unbury what you thought wasn't possible, and look for the opportunity to try again. This is your life to live. Life's score does not get the final number. You got this! What can you do to create your now and not get rattled by what others think and how they score your life: 1. **Believe in Yourself**: Your self-worth is not determined by others' opinions. Trust in your abilities and let your inner voice guide you towards your goals. 2. **Focus on Your Journey**: Comparison is the thief of joy. Instead of worrying about how others perceive your life's score, concentrate on your progress, growth, and personal development. 3. **Surround Yourself with Positivity**: Surround yourself with individuals who uplift and support you. Seek out constructive feedback and perspectives that align with your values and aspirations. “Life's score does not define you; it empowers you to create a new melody of possibilities.” ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: What score is ruling your day?

What you say flows from what is in your heart. ~ Luke 6:45 NLT In the depth of our being lies the essence of who we are - our heart, the very source of our thoughts, emotions, and intentions. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's days like this that we set aside time to look within, to reflect on what you are doing well and what needs to change.  <ul> <li>Maybe you have noticed you are a little more agitated and short with your family. </li> <li>Maybe you are more fussy than optimistic. </li> <li>Maybe you are feeling drained and just want to challenge people with your words because you can.</li> </ul> When we come to the realization that our hearts may be inclined towards negativity or weakness, why do we keep trying to do life by ourselves. This is a reminder of the transformative work that can be done through Jesus Christ if we let Him. It takes courage to confront our shortcomings and acknowledge the areas where we need growth and renewal. But when we have the courage to be real and raw with ourselves, then that's the first step towards healing and restoration. Scripture reminds us in Ezekiel 36:26, "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh." This promise signifies the profound change that is possible when we surrender our hearts to God and invite His grace to work within us. But here's the thing-- You have to want to surrender. You have to want God's grace. You have to want God to work within you. The K.I.S.S. ~ What is in your heart! In times of struggle and moments of weakness, it is vital to lean on God's promises and draw strength from His Word. Romans 12:2 encourages us, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."  "In the journey of faith, our hearts may falter, but in Christ, we find the strength to rise again, renewed and restored." ~ Kristianne Wargo This journey is not one of perfection but of perseverance, trusting that God's work within us is continuous and life-transforming. What is in your heart? Do you need to call on God to change the things that come out of your mouth? If you do believe that you are stuck in a place of disbelief and wondering what God can do, don't hesitate to ask Him. Ask. Seek. And knock. 7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened." ~ Matthew 7:7 God does care about your vocabulary. God does care about your perspective. God does care about your heart. But do you? Do you really want to make the shift and change what is not working? Only you know the real truth.  May you take comfort in the fact that your weaknesses are opportunities for God's strength to shine through. Embrace the journey of growth and restoration, knowing that your heart, when surrendered to God, can bear fruits of love, and grace-- transformation beyond measure.   "Be present. Be incredible.

For couples juggling the demands of life, the connection that once felt unbreakable can start to falter. So nurture what matters. You understand the demands of raising children, pursuing careers, focusing on others, and growing their finances are some of the few things that can distract couples from each other. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Here you said "I do," with the hopes of building a life together, but now the reality is that you are building a life, just not together (or so it seems). These feelings are real and can affect your growth as a couple.  In fact, many find themselves asking, "Are we better together?" I think most of us at the beginning of the honeymoon phase of marriage are enthusiastic about what it holds for us. Yet, when life happens, those enthusiastic dreams fade over time, eventually leaving them muted and sometimes permanently buried. <ul> <li>Why would you want the spark in your marriage to decline? </li> <li>Why would you not give your best for your spouse? </li> <li>Why would you give more to others than to the one you pledge to spend the rest of your life with?</li> </ul> If you find yourself feeling distant from your spouse, it may be time to refocus on what truly matters in your relationship. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rediscover your connection! When the closeness you once shared with your partner seems to be slipping away, it’s important to take proactive steps to nurture what truly matters. So first, I want you to ask yourself, "What am I doing or NOT doing for my spouse?" Keep everything in perspective and be real and raw. No more "well maybe"; it's YES or NO enthusiastically. If you want to reignite the spark and nurture what matters, your enthusiasm to rediscover must be off the charts. So prepare your heart to do your part. Here are three things you can do to reignite the flame: 1. Prioritize Quality Time Find moments in your busy schedule to dedicate to each other without distractions. Schedule regular date nights or mini getaways to reconnect and strengthen your bond. Even simple gestures like cooking a meal together or taking a leisurely walk can help you feel more connected. Example: “Let's make time each week for an evening walk, just the two of us, to talk and unwind from our hectic days,” suggests marriage expert Jimmy Evans. 2. Communicate Openly and Honestly Set aside time to have meaningful conversations with your spouse. Share your feelings, concerns, and dreams with each other. Listening actively and empathetically can help bridge any emotional distance between you both. Example: “Let's commit to having a weekly check-in where we share one thing we appreciate about each other and one thing we’d like to improve on in our marriage,” advises marriage coach Kristianne Wargo. 3. Show Appreciation and Gratitude Expressing gratitude for your partner (in words and actions) and showing appreciation for the little things they do can go a long way in nurturing a loving relationship. Small gestures like leaving a heartfelt note, surprising them with their favorite treat, or simply saying “I love you” can make a big impact. Example: “Let's make a conscious effort to show gratitude towards each other daily, whether through words, actions, or thoughtful gestures,” recommends relationship advisor Jimmy Evans. Remember, where you invest your time and actions reflects what you value in your marriage. By nurturing what truly matters, you can reignite the flame and strengthen the foundation of your relationship.  "In the garden of marriage, the seeds of love must be nurtured daily to bloom into a flourishing partnership." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, it’s never too late to prioritize your relationship and nurture what matters most!

For couples juggling the demands of life, the connection that once felt unbreakable can start to falter. So nurture what matters. You understand the demands of raising children, pursuing careers, focusing on others, and growing their finances are some of the few things that can distract couples from each other. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Here you said "I do," with the hopes of building a life together, but now the reality is that you are building a life, just not together (or so it seems). These feelings are real and can affect your growth as a couple.  In fact, many find themselves asking, "Are we better together?" I think most of us at the beginning of the honeymoon phase of marriage are enthusiastic about what it holds for us. Yet, when life happens, those enthusiastic dreams fade over time, eventually leaving them muted and sometimes permanently buried. <ul> <li>Why would you want the spark in your marriage to decline? </li> <li>Why would you not give your best for your spouse? </li> <li>Why would you give more to others than to the one you pledge to spend the rest of your life with?</li> </ul> If you find yourself feeling distant from your spouse, it may be time to refocus on what truly matters in your relationship. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rediscover your connection! When the closeness you once shared with your partner seems to be slipping away, it’s important to take proactive steps to nurture what truly matters. So first, I want you to ask yourself, "What am I doing or NOT doing for my spouse?" Keep everything in perspective and be real and raw. No more "well maybe"; it's YES or NO enthusiastically. If you want to reignite the spark and nurture what matters, your enthusiasm to rediscover must be off the charts. So prepare your heart to do your part. Here are three things you can do to reignite the flame: 1. Prioritize Quality Time Find moments in your busy schedule to dedicate to each other without distractions. Schedule regular date nights or mini getaways to reconnect and strengthen your bond. Even simple gestures like cooking a meal together or taking a leisurely walk can help you feel more connected. Example: “Let's make time each week for an evening walk, just the two of us, to talk and unwind from our hectic days,” suggests marriage expert Jimmy Evans. 2. Communicate Openly and Honestly Set aside time to have meaningful conversations with your spouse. Share your feelings, concerns, and dreams with each other. Listening actively and empathetically can help bridge any emotional distance between you both. Example: “Let's commit to having a weekly check-in where we share one thing we appreciate about each other and one thing we’d like to improve on in our marriage,” advises marriage coach Kristianne Wargo. 3. Show Appreciation and Gratitude Expressing gratitude for your partner (in words and actions) and showing appreciation for the little things they do can go a long way in nurturing a loving relationship. Small gestures like leaving a heartfelt note, surprising them with their favorite treat, or simply saying “I love you” can make a big impact. Example: “Let's make a conscious effort to show gratitude towards each other daily, whether through words, actions, or thoughtful gestures,” recommends relationship advisor Jimmy Evans. Remember, where you invest your time and actions reflects what you value in your marriage. By nurturing what truly matters, you can reignite the flame and strengthen the foundation of your relationship.  "In the garden of marriage, the seeds of love must be nurtured daily to bloom into a flourishing partnership." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, it’s...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1019</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,couples,forgiveness,foundation,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,lifestyle,love,marriage,mindset,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/c35282382451f772138764b232fa07ab.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3414 What Habits Are You Encouraging For Your Child?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3414-what-habits-are-you-encouraging-for-your-child--60232021</link><description><![CDATA[As parents, we can be too quick to assume that our actions have no lasting impact. However, what you teach your kids, through words or actions, leaves a lasting impression. What habits are you encouraging for your child? Dr. Kevin Leman said, "Don’t start habits that you don’t want to have continue throughout your child’s college and graduate years." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How do you lead your children, regardless of age? <ul> <li>Are you one who teases more than praises?</li> <li>Are you one who puts down rather than lifts up?</li> <li>Are you one who plays hardball more than lending an ear?</li> <li>Are you one who puts yourself first instead of your child's best interest?</li> <li>Are you one who the worst before you expect the best?</li> </ul> Parenting is not easy. And neither is living. But you have to step up to the plate if you are going to do both well. Now, maybe you're thinking that the goal here with children is to create a happy child. Dr. Leman says, "If you’re a young parent today and your goal is to create a happy child, we should all bow our heads and pray for you now, because it’s gonna be disastrous." There are many times during your child's rearing years that they need to feel unhappy; they need to lose and come in second. They need to fail at something they worked hard for. They need to understand the consequences or their actions and words, whether good or bad. And if that means feeling unhappy, let those bells ring. One thing parents try and do is to "make" your child do something. A lot of people might use the word "control". Quite frankly, you cannot make your child do anything. If you are grocery shopping, and all of a sudden your child asks for something and you respond with a, "No, put it back.", you might feel the wrath of your child not getting their own way. Let the meltdown occur. Instead of looking at raising kids from a "control" aspect, think of it as training. You are training up a child to become a productive adult. All the more reason to encourage habits you want your child to continue through college and graduate years. So how can we as parents encourage positive habits that will guide our children? The K.I.S.S. ~ Train them up! 1. Lead By Example Children are like sponges, absorbing everything around them. It is essential for parents to exemplify the values and behaviors they wish to instill in their children. Whether it's demonstrating kindness, perseverance, or a strong work ethic, children learn best through observation. Dr. Kevin Leman emphasizes the importance of parental modeling, stating, "Your kids are watching you - and learning from you." 2. Encourage a Growth Mindset Teach your children the power of positivity and resilience through fostering a growth mindset. Encourage them to embrace challenges, learn from failures, and persist in the face of obstacles. By praising effort and progress rather than just results, you can help cultivate a mindset that sets your child up for success in all areas of their lives.  "Encouraging a growth mindset in your child will empower them to conquer challenges and pursue their dreams with unwavering determination." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Establish Consistent Routines Consistency is key when it comes to forming habits. By establishing regular routines, such as bedtime rituals, study schedules, or family meal times, parents can create a sense of stability and security for their children. These routines promote discipline, strengthen family bonds, and provide a sense of belonging. Dr. Kevin Leman affirms the significance of routines, "Routines give children the security of knowing what to expect and help them feel safe and grounded." "The habits you encourage in your children today will shape the adults they become tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo By leading by example, promoting a growth mindset, and establishing consistent routines, parents can empower their children to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience. Remember, the little seeds of habits we sow today will blossom into the future our children inherit.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It is about feeling alive, vibrant, and purposeful in everything you do. When you have vitality, you have the energy and enthusiasm to tackle challenges, pursue your passions, and live life to the fullest. **Giving Up to Gain** To achieve vitality, one must be willing to give up unhealthy habits and mindsets that hinder overall well-being. This might include letting go of processed foods, negative self-talk, and sedentary lifestyles. By making conscious choices to prioritize your health, you pave the way for a vibrant and vital existence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Eat for vitality! **3 Ways to Eat for Vitality** 1. Prioritize Whole Foods: "The food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison." - Dr. Mark Hyman. Focus on consuming nutrient-dense whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains to fuel your body with essential vitamins and minerals. 2. Stay Hydrated: "Water is essential for carrying nutrients to your cells, flushing out toxins, and maintaining overall well-being." - Dr. Mark Hyman. Drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day supports digestion, circulation, and detoxification processes, promoting vitality from within. 3. Mindful Eating: "Eating is not just about fueling your body; it's a practice in self-care and nourishment." - Kristianne Wargo.<br /> <br /> Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite, listening to your body's hunger cues, and choosing foods that truly nourish you. By being present with your meals, you cultivate a deeper connection to your body and its needs. CHALLENGE: What do your eating patterns look like?

But amidst the chaos and the clamor, there lies a gentle reminder to keep the flame of passion flickering.

It's not always about the big wins or the grand victories; sometimes, it's about taking that small step, about moving forward inch by inch, even when the journey feels arduous. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep the flame of passion flickering! Passion, like a well-fed flame, can burn brightly, illuminating the darkest of paths. Yet, there are moments when that flame wavers, when the shadows of doubt loom large. It is during these times that the true test of character emerges. Will you succumb to the darkness, or will you stoke the embers of determination within you, reigniting the fire that propels you forward? The road to success is not always paved with smooth stones; there are bumps, twists, and turns along the way. Setbacks, failures, and challenges are not signs of defeat but rather stepping stones towards growth and self-discovery. What are you discovering about this season of life you're in? Embrace the obstacles, learn from them, and use them as fuel to propel you even further towards your dreams. When the heartbeat of your passion begins to fade, remember why you started this journey in the first place. Recall the excitement, the drive, the sheer determination that fueled your initial steps. Let that energy flow through you once more, infusing every fiber of your being with the relentless pursuit of your goals. You are capable of achieving greatness, of surpassing the limits you once thought impossible. Trust in your journey, have faith in your abilities, and above all, believe in the power of resilience that resides within you. Keep moving forward, keep pushing through the challenges, for on the other side lies a version of yourself you never thought possible. So, to all the dreamers, the believers, the doers – remember, it's not about the destination, but the journey itself. Embrace the setbacks, be present in the moment, celebrate the victories, and never lose sight of the fire burning brightly within you. You got this!   "Be present. Be incredible.

As we navigate our own paths, it is crucial to pause, listen, and heed the lessons imparted by those who have fearlessly defended our freedoms.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As we celebrate Memorial Day, a day of remembrance and gratitude, we are called to reflect on the sacrifices made by the courageous men and women who have served our country. At its core, Memorial Day is a time to honor the memory of those who gave their lives in defense of our freedoms and to learn from their selfless acts of service. So as you go about your day, take time to reflect on the blessings you have because of the service and sacrifice of others you most likely will never meet. The K.I.S.S. ~ Echoes of valor! Remembrance: One poignant example of sacrifice and service is the story of Sergeant First Class Paul Smith, a U.S. Army soldier who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroism during the Iraq War by President George W. Bush in a ceremony at the White House on April 4, 2005. On April 4, 2003, Smith's unit came under attack from enemy forces in Baghdad. Despite being outnumbered and under fire, Smith took charge of his men, manned a machine gun on an exposed position, and fought valiantly to protect his fellow soldiers. He made the ultimate sacrifice that day, saving countless lives through his courageous actions. A Lesson Learned: Smith's story serves as a powerful reminder of the bravery and valor displayed by our service members in the face of danger. Sergeant Smith's selfless act of putting others before himself exemplifies the values of honor, duty, and sacrifice that define our military heroes. Through his example, we learn the importance of standing up for what is right, of protecting those in need, and of never backing down in the face of adversity. Gratitude: In the words of President John F. Kennedy, "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." This Memorial Day, let us not only pay tribute to the fallen, but also express our gratitude through our actions. We can honor their memory by volunteering at veterans' organizations, supporting military families, and advocating for policies that benefit our servicemen and women. In the spirit of continuing the impact of Memorial Day, here are three things we can do to honor this day: 1. Attend a Memorial Day ceremony or parade in your community to pay respects to those who have served. 2. Visit a local veteran's memorial or cemetery and leave flowers or flags to honor the fallen. 3. Support organizations that provide assistance to veterans and their families, such as the Wounded Warrior Project or Fisher House Foundation. Let us remember, "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it." ~ Kristianne Wargo On this Memorial Day, may we honor the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice, learn from their example, and live with courage and gratitude in their memory.

As we navigate our own paths, it is crucial to pause, listen, and heed the lessons imparted by those who have fearlessly defended our freedoms.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As we celebrate Memorial Day, a day of remembrance and gratitude, we are called to reflect on the sacrifices made by the courageous men and women who have served our country. At its core, Memorial Day is a time to honor the memory of those who gave their lives in defense of our freedoms and to learn from their selfless acts of service. So as you go about your day, take time to reflect on the blessings you have because of the service and sacrifice of others you most likely will never meet. The K.I.S.S. ~ Echoes of valor! Remembrance: One poignant example of sacrifice and service is the story of Sergeant First Class Paul Smith, a U.S. Army soldier who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroism during the Iraq War by President George W. Bush in a ceremony at the White House on April 4, 2005. On April 4, 2003, Smith's unit came under attack from enemy forces in Baghdad. Despite being outnumbered and under fire, Smith took charge of his men, manned a machine gun on an exposed position, and fought valiantly to protect his fellow soldiers. He made the ultimate sacrifice that day, saving countless lives through his courageous actions. A Lesson Learned: Smith's story serves as a powerful reminder of the bravery and valor displayed by our service members in the face of danger. Sergeant Smith's selfless act of putting others before himself exemplifies the values of honor, duty, and sacrifice that define our military heroes. Through his example, we learn the importance of standing up for what is right, of protecting those in need, and of never backing down in the face of adversity. Gratitude: In the words of President John F. Kennedy, "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." This Memorial Day, let us not only pay tribute to the fallen, but also express our gratitude through our actions. We can honor their memory by volunteering at veterans' organizations, supporting military families, and advocating for policies that benefit our servicemen and women. In the spirit of continuing the impact of Memorial Day, here are three things we can do to honor this day: 1. Attend a Memorial Day ceremony or parade in your community to pay respects to those who have served. 2. Visit a local veteran's memorial or cemetery and leave flowers or flags to honor the fallen. 3. Support organizations that provide assistance to veterans and their families, such as the Wounded Warrior Project or Fisher House Foundation. Let us remember, "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it." ~ Kristianne Wargo On this Memorial Day, may we honor the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice, learn from their example, and live with courage and gratitude in their memory. For those who are still with us and those currently serving, we salute YOU-- your service and sacrifice. And to the families behind the soldiers, we honor you, too. May this Memorial Day not go unnoticed by those who gave you the opportunity to have the freedoms we so frequently take for granted. Our freedoms come at a cost both in life and death.  Have a blessed Memorial Day!   "Be present. Be incredible.

The wise words of Amy Carmichael remind us that "Our feelings do not affect God's facts." Surrender to God's plan. Your emotions, though valid and real, do not change the unchanging reality of God's purpose and presence in your life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Despite your best intentions, your feelings can cloud your judgment and steer you away from the truth that God sees things in a way that you may miss or dismiss. The K.I.S.S. ~ Surrender to God's plan! To be grounded in God and not in our feelings is to surrender our will to His divine plan. In the Bible, Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV) says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight." CHALLENGE: Are you placing your trust in God's wisdom above your own understanding and willing to submit your ways to His will? When we anchor our lives in faith and trust in God's promises, we can find peace beyond our feelings and navigate life with a sense of purpose and direction. As Kristianne Wargo once said, "Letting go of your need for control is where you find the freedom to embrace God's plan." Let us remember that our feelings, though powerful, are fleeting. God's love and purpose for us endure forever. May we strive to live not by our emotions, but by the unchanging truths of God's word. May we rest in His presence!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But should you tell your spouse everything? What happens when one spouse feels the need to be brutally honest about every aspect of their life while the other struggles to handle the weight of these revelations? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The question of whether to tell your spouse everything is a complex one, as finding the right balance in a relationship can be challenging. It's essential to understand that your spouse cannot be your sole source of support and understanding, nor can they erase the pain and disappointments of your past. So how do you know if you should tell your spouse? You might need to consider the positioning of your spouse. The K.I.S.S. ~ Consider the positioning of your spouse! 1. Choose Your Timing Wisely: Instead of bombarding your spouse with every detail of your past or present struggles all at once, consider discussing sensitive topics when both of you are in a calm and receptive state. Setting aside dedicated time for open and honest conversations can prevent overwhelming your partner. Gary Chapman, author of "The Five Love Languages" ~ "Communication is the key to a vibrant relationship. When we understand and speak each other's love language, we're telling our spouse that they matter." 2. Practice Active Listening: Encourage your spouse to share their feelings and concerns about the information you're disclosing. Showing empathy and understanding towards their reactions can create a safe space for both of you to communicate effectively without judgment. Also, when you are actively listening, your spouse will leave clues as to what they can and cannot handle. Think about this: Why would you share something that cannot be handled in a delicate manner? Shaunti Feldhahn, author of "For Women Only" ~ "Men and women may experience love differently, but the need for communication, understanding, and connection is universal. Taking the time to truly listen to your partner can strengthen your bond." 3. Seek Professional Guidance: If the topics you wish to discuss are particularly challenging or triggering for either you or your spouse, consider seeking the help of a licensed therapist or counselor or certified coach. Professional guidance can facilitate productive discussions and provide tools to navigate sensitive conversations.  Leslie Vernick, author of "The Emotionally Destructive Marriage," ~ "Healthy relationships require boundaries and respect. It's important to communicate openly and honestly while also honoring each other's emotional well-being." "Marriage is a journey of two individuals walking together, not a destination where all problems disappear. Finding a balance between honesty and sensitivity is key to fostering a healthy and thriving relationship." ~ Kristianne Wargo In the end, navigating the delicate balance of transparency and discretion in marriage requires mutual respect, understanding, and a willingness to support each other through life's challenges.

Also, when you are actively listening, your spouse will leave clues as to what they can and cannot handle. Think about this: Why would you share something that cannot be handled in a delicate manner? Shaunti Feldhahn, author of "For Women Only" ~ "Men and women may experience love differently, but the need for communication, understanding, and connection is universal. Taking the time to truly listen to your partner can strengthen your bond." 3. Seek Professional Guidance: If the topics you wish to discuss are particularly challenging or triggering for either you or your spouse, consider seeking the help of a licensed therapist or counselor or certified coach. Professional guidance can facilitate productive discussions and provide tools to navigate sensitive conversations.  Leslie Vernick, author of "The Emotionally Destructive Marriage," ~ "Healthy relationships require boundaries and respect. It's important to communicate openly and honestly while also honoring each other's emotional well-being." "Marriage is a journey of two individuals walking together, not a destination where all problems disappear. Finding a balance between honesty and sensitivity is key to fostering a healthy and thriving relationship." ~ Kristianne Wargo In the end, navigating the delicate balance of transparency and discretion in marriage requires mutual respect, understanding, and a willingness to support each other through life's challenges. CHALLENGE: How do you share? Do you tell your spouse everything? Do you think you should tell your spouse everything? How do you tell your spouse everything?   "Be present. Be incredible.

If the virtual world continues to take hold of our children's minds, how will they understand reality? Take a stand and embrace the joy of digital detox. Rather than engaging with the tangible world around them, they are more often immersed in a virtual realm that offers instant gratification and constant stimulation.

Girls are often lured by the promise of social connections, where relationships are curated and maintained through screens. The fear of missing out (FOMO) drives them to stay constantly plugged in, fearing the isolation that may come with disconnecting. On the other hand, boys are frequently enticed by sports and video games, only to find themselves inadvertently exposed to harmful content like pornography. This constant pull towards screens can have profound effects on our children, both physically and mentally. To combat this trend and promote a healthier balance, parents can take proactive steps to limit phone usage and encourage activities that stimulate creativity and imagination. The K.I.S.S. ~ Encourage free play! Free play is not just about playing with toys. Free play is about being present in the moment, using their motor skills and mental development. 1. One effective strategy is to implement designated tech-free times or zones within the home. By setting boundaries around phone usage, parents can create space for uninterrupted free play, allowing children to engage with the physical world and exercise their creativity. 2. Encouraging activities and hobbies that do not involve screens is another way to help children rewire their behavior. Whether it's exploring nature, arts and crafts, or sports, these pursuits can provide a much-needed break from the digital noise and foster a sense of presence in the moment. 3. Parents can also lead by example and model healthy tech habits. By demonstrating the value of face-to-face interactions and genuine human connection, they can instill in their children a deeper appreciation for the real world beyond the screen.

The idea of indulging in chocolate for breakfast may sound too good to be true, but why not have a sweet start to your day? Because what if I told you that it could actually be beneficial for your health and well-being? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Power of Chocolate Contrary to popular belief, chocolate can be more than just a sinful indulgence; it can also be a source of antioxidants and nutrients that promote overall health. Dark chocolate, in particular, is known for its heart-healthy properties and mood-enhancing benefits. Benefits of Dark Chocolate for Morning Consumption 1. Boost of Energy: Dark chocolate contains natural stimulants like caffeine and theobromine, which can provide a gentle energy boost to kickstart your day without the jittery effects of coffee. 2. Mood Enhancement: Dark chocolate stimulates the production of endorphins and serotonin, known as "feel-good" hormones, which can improve mood and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety early in the morning. 3. Antioxidant Power: Dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids and polyphenols, which help combat oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. Consuming antioxidants in the morning can support overall health and immunity. 4. Improved Brain Function: The flavonoids in dark chocolate have been linked to enhanced cognitive function, including improved focus, memory, and problem-solving skills. Starting your day with dark chocolate may help boost brain health and productivity. 5. Heart Health: Dark chocolate has been shown to support heart health by improving blood flow, reducing blood pressure, and lowering cholesterol levels. Incorporating dark chocolate into your morning routine can contribute to a healthy cardiovascular system. 6. Appetite Control: The rich taste of dark chocolate can satisfy sweet cravings and help curb unnecessary snacking throughout the day. Consuming a small amount of dark chocolate in the morning may help regulate appetite and prevent overeating later on. By incorporating a moderate amount of dark chocolate into your morning routine, you can kickstart your day on a positive note while reaping the rewards of its nutritional value. The K.I.S.S. ~ Kickstart with a sweet heart! Morning Rituals for a Healthier You Establishing a morning routine sets the tone for the rest of your day and can significantly impact your health and productivity.

The idea of indulging in chocolate for breakfast may sound too good to be true, but why not have a sweet start to your day? Because what if I told you that it could actually be beneficial for your health and well-being? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Power of Chocolate Contrary to popular belief, chocolate can be more than just a sinful indulgence; it can also be a source of antioxidants and nutrients that promote overall health. Dark chocolate, in particular, is known for its heart-healthy properties and mood-enhancing benefits. Benefits of Dark Chocolate for Morning Consumption 1. Boost of Energy: Dark chocolate contains natural stimulants like caffeine and theobromine, which can provide a gentle energy boost to kickstart your day without the jittery effects of coffee. 2. Mood Enhancement: Dark chocolate stimulates the production of endorphins and serotonin, known as "feel-good" hormones, which can improve mood and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety early in the morning. 3. Antioxidant Power: Dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids and polyphenols, which help combat oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. Consuming antioxidants in the morning can support overall health and immunity. 4. Improved Brain Function: The flavonoids in dark chocolate have been linked to enhanced cognitive function, including improved focus, memory, and problem-solving skills. Starting your day with dark chocolate may help boost brain health and productivity. 5. Heart Health: Dark chocolate has been shown to support heart health by improving blood flow, reducing blood pressure, and lowering cholesterol levels. Incorporating dark chocolate into your morning routine can contribute to a healthy cardiovascular system. 6. Appetite Control: The rich taste of dark chocolate can satisfy sweet cravings and help curb unnecessary snacking throughout the day. Consuming a small amount of dark chocolate in the morning may help regulate appetite and prevent overeating later on. By incorporating a moderate amount of dark chocolate into your morning routine, you can kickstart your day on a positive note while reaping the rewards of its nutritional value. The K.I.S.S. ~ Kickstart with a sweet heart! Morning Rituals for a Healthier You Establishing a morning routine sets the tone for the rest of your day and can significantly impact your health and productivity. By incorporating chocolate into your morning ritual, you can experience a boost of energy and focus that will carry you through the day.

Let the frustration go and live while you wait. During these moments of stillness and waiting, we are often presented with an opportunity to slow down, reflect, and appreciate the beauty of the present moment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Just as the growth of an oak tree takes time, patience, and resilience, so too does the process of personal growth and realizing one's full potential. The journey of an oak tree from a small acorn to a majestic oak serves as a powerful metaphor for our own paths towards greatness. When an acorn is planted, it doesn't immediately sprout into a towering tree overnight. It requires nurturing, sunlight, water, and time to develop strong roots and sturdy branches. Similarly, our dreams and aspirations need time to take root, grow, and flourish. During the early stages of growth, the oak tree may not appear remarkable or grand, but beneath the surface, it is establishing a strong foundation that will support its future growth. In the same way, when we feel like nothing is happening in our lives, it's essential to remember that growth often occurs unseen, in the depths of our being. As the oak tree matures and faces challenges such as harsh weather, pests, and obstacles, it adapts and strengthens itself, becoming more resilient and enduring. Likewise, in our own lives, challenges and setbacks may slow our progress, but they also provide opportunities for learning, growth, and character development. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live while you wait! "Patience is not about waiting, but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing the process of waiting and trusting in the journey, we allow ourselves the space to develop our strengths, cultivate resilience, and prepare for the greatness that lies ahead. Just as the oak tree doesn't rush its growth but flourishes at its own pace, so too can we learn to live fully in the present moment, appreciating the beauty and lessons that come with the waiting. In essence, living while you wait for your greatness in the making is about embracing the journey, finding joy in the process, and trusting that every moment of stillness and growth is leading you closer to realizing your full potential and the greatness within you. So, if you find yourself in a season of slow motion, remember that every moment has its purpose. Embrace the stillness, savor the present, and trust that you are precisely where you need to be. Live fully, love deeply, and let your dreams take root and flourish in their own time.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"Just as a gardener tends to their garden with care and attention, nurturing each plant through watering and tending, so too must we cultivate our dreams. What we water grows, not just in the soil of our ambitions, but in the depths of our hearts and minds. Each drop of dedication, each moment of perseverance, acts as a nourishing elixir, fueling the growth of our aspirations." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As Spring rolls around, the world outside begins to bloom and flourish - a perfect opportunity to draw parallels between nurturing plants and fostering personal growth. Just like a gardener tends to their garden with water, fertilizer, and good soil, individuals have the power to cultivate their dreams, increase self-awareness, and keep the flames of their ambitions burning bright.  "Just as plants need care to bloom, so do our dreams need nurturing to grow." ~ Kristianne Wargo Every decision you make, every action you take, has the potential to either feed or hinder your personal development. During this season of blooming, cultivate your dreams. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cultivate your dreams! 1. Water: Set specific and achievable goals for yourself. Just as plants need a steady supply of water to thrive, individuals need clear objectives to work towards. Regularly revisiting and adjusting these goals ensures that you stay on track and stay motivated.  It's not enough to just plant the seed; regular attention and effort are essential to see it grow into something beautiful.  2. Fertilize: Invest in your personal development through learning and self-improvement. Similar to how plants benefit from nutrient-rich fertilizer, individuals can grow and strengthen by seeking out new knowledge, skills, and experiences. Whether it's through books, courses, or workshops, feeding your mind helps you flourish. Think of it as strengthening your roots and promoting growth. Surrounding oneself with positivity and investing in personal development acts as the fertilizer that nourishes ambitions and propels them forward. 3. Soil: Cultivate a positive mindset and resilience. Just as plants rely on good soil for stability and nourishment, individuals need a strong foundation of optimism, self-belief, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks. Building mental resilience ensures that you can weather life's challenges and continue to grow towards your greatness. Jim Rohn said, "You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself." With each small step toward your goals, you are sowing the seeds of your future success. Like a delicate flower reaching toward the sun, your dreams unfurl and blossom when given the right conditions to thrive. So, water them with determination, fertilize them with knowledge and experience, and plant them in the rich soil of belief and resilience. For what you water grows, and with dedication and patience, you'll witness the incredible transformation of your dreams into reality." In conclusion, remember these words from Kristianne Wargo: "Just as plants need care to bloom, so do our dreams need nurturing to grow."  You can create the fertile ground for personal growth and success to take root and blossom. As you tend to your plants this Spring, take a moment to reflect on how you are nurturing your own growth and greatness. Just as what you water grows in the garden, so too will your efforts shape and grow the direction of your life's path.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"Just as a gardener tends to their garden with care and attention, nurturing each plant through watering and tending, so too must we cultivate our dreams. What we water grows, not just in the soil of our ambitions, but in the depths of our hearts and minds. Each drop of dedication, each moment of perseverance, acts as a nourishing elixir, fueling the growth of our aspirations." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As Spring rolls around, the world outside begins to bloom and flourish - a perfect opportunity to draw parallels between nurturing plants and fostering personal growth. Just like a gardener tends to their garden with water, fertilizer, and good soil, individuals have the power to cultivate their dreams, increase self-awareness, and keep the flames of their ambitions burning bright.  "Just as plants need care to bloom, so do our dreams need nurturing to grow." ~ Kristianne Wargo Every decision you make, every action you take, has the potential to either feed or hinder your personal development. During this season of blooming, cultivate your dreams. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cultivate your dreams! 1. Water: Set specific and achievable goals for yourself. Just as plants need a steady supply of water to thrive, individuals need clear objectives to work towards. Regularly revisiting and adjusting these goals ensures that you stay on track and stay motivated.  It's not enough to just plant the seed; regular attention and effort are essential to see it grow into something beautiful.  2. Fertilize: Invest in your personal development through learning and self-improvement. Similar to how plants benefit from nutrient-rich fertilizer, individuals can grow and strengthen by seeking out new knowledge, skills, and experiences. Whether it's through books, courses, or workshops, feeding your mind helps you flourish. Think of it as strengthening your roots and promoting growth. Surrounding oneself with positivity and investing in personal development acts as the fertilizer that nourishes ambitions and propels them forward. 3. Soil: Cultivate a positive mindset and resilience. Just as plants rely on good soil for stability and nourishment, individuals need a strong foundation of optimism, self-belief, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks. Building mental resilience ensures that you can weather life's challenges and continue to grow towards your greatness. Jim Rohn said, "You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself." With each small step toward your goals, you are sowing the seeds of your future success. Like a delicate flower reaching toward the sun, your dreams unfurl and blossom when given the right conditions to thrive. So, water them with determination, fertilize them with knowledge and experience, and plant them in the rich soil of belief and resilience. For what you water grows, and with dedication and patience, you'll witness the incredible transformation of your dreams into reality." In conclusion, remember these words from Kristianne Wargo: "Just as plants need care to bloom, so do our dreams need nurturing to grow."  You can create the fertile ground for personal growth and success to take root and blossom. As you tend to your plants this Spring, take a moment to reflect on how you are nurturing your own growth and greatness. Just as what you water grows in the garden, so too will your efforts shape and grow the direction of your life's path.   "Be present. Be incredible.

As you write your story, be sure to trust God with everything. In the midst of life's chaos and tranquility, there lies a steadfast anchor - God, Himself. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And even when the world is upside down, embracing God's guiding hand brings a profound peace that transcends understanding. The Book of Jeremiah speaks of God's reassuring words, "For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)" With this promise echoing through the corridors of doubt, one finds solace in relinquishing control and placing faith in God's divine timing. It is in surrendering your limited understanding that you pave the way for God's miraculous intervention. The K.I.S.S. ~ Trust God with everything! In the tapestry of life, we often seek to micromanage every thread, clinging to a sense of control that is a mere illusion. However, the beauty of trusting God with everything lies in the liberation it brings. As Corrie ten Boom wisely said, "Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God." In cultivating a heart of trust, we release the burdens of anxiety and fear, allowing God's grace to weave a masterpiece of redemption and restoration. The journey of faith is not always easy, for it requires a surrender of self and a relinquishment of pride. In Proverbs 3:5-6, we are reminded to "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." This profound truth invites us to lay down our burdens at the feet of the cross, embracing a faith that transcends human comprehension. As you navigate the ebbs and flows of life, remember that the key to true freedom lies when you trust God with everything. Whether you find yourself in the throes of adversity or the embrace of blessings, let faith be your guiding light. For in the surrender of self, you will discover a peace that surpasses all understanding, a peace that can only come from entrusting your life into the hands of a loving and sovereign God.

Be with the one that loves you consistently, not conveniently. The art of loving well. Love is often portrayed as a fairy tale, filled with grand gestures and effortless passion. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, those who have experienced true love understand that love requires steadfast commitment and unwavering loyalty. In the pursuit of loving well, deeper, and more genuinely, individuals must embody the essence of selflessness, patience, and understanding. As the famous quote from 1 Corinthians 13 states, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud." These timeless words encapsulate the essence of true love, emphasizing the importance of generosity, humility, and compassion in nurturing meaningful relationships. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love well! One of the fundamental aspects of loving well is the ability to prioritize the needs and happiness of your partner above your own. By embracing a selfless attitude, individuals can create a nurturing environment where love can flourish organically.   "True love is not about what you can gain, but what you can give." ~ Kristianne Wargo Furthermore, cultivating patience in relationships is essential for fostering deeper connections and mutual understanding. As British poet William Wordsworth once said, "With gentle hand, touch - for there is a spirit in the woods." Patience allows individuals to navigate through challenges and conflicts with grace, leading to greater empathy and emotional intimacy. Lastly, genuine love thrives on authentic communication and a willingness to truly listen and understand your partner's perspective. American poet Maya Angelou beautifully captured this sentiment when she said, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." By actively engaging in open and honest dialogues, individuals can forge a deep emotional connection built on trust and mutual respect. In conclusion, loving well, deeper, and more genuinely requires a conscious effort to embody selflessness, patience, and authentic communication. As individuals strive to cultivate these qualities in their relationships, they will undoubtedly experience the transformative power of true love, transcending mere convenience and embracing the profound joy of unwavering commitment. Love is not about convenience, but consistency, dedication, and a deep-rooted connection that withstands the test of time.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It may not be encouraged depending on how you were brought up or the influencers around you. So, is NO a bad word? Think about it. This seemingly straightforward inquiry delves deep into the realms of communication, respect, and understanding within families. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The concept of saying no to a parent can evoke a myriad of emotions and opinions. Traditional views may assert that children should always obey their parents, a notion deeply rooted in generations of parenting practices. However, as society evolves and the understanding of child psychology grows, the idea of children having a voice in their interactions with parents has gained traction. Respecting a child's boundaries and allowing them to express their autonomy is essential for their emotional development. Encouraging open communication and listening to a child's concerns can foster a sense of trust and respect within the parent-child relationship. Setting healthy boundaries teaches children that their opinions and feelings are valid, helping to build their self-esteem and confidence. Moreover, recognizing a child's right to say no can also serve as a valuable lesson in consent and personal agency. Teaching children to assert their boundaries early in life can empower them to navigate relationships, peer pressure, and potential risks as they grow older. However, the question of whether a child can say no to a parent is not without its complexities. Balancing a child's autonomy with parental authority requires a delicate approach. Parents must strike a balance between setting boundaries and allowing room for expression, guiding their children with empathy and understanding. Ultimately, the ability for a child to say no to a parent is a sign of a healthy, communicative relationship. It speaks to a dynamic where both parties feel heard and respected, fostering mutual understanding and emotional growth. The K.I.S.S. ~ Explore boundaries! In order for a child to understand how NO can be used in a respectful manner, the parent needs to model it.  And unfortunately, that doesn't come easy, especially if you were raised that children are to be seen and not heard.  But then, how do they have a voice? How does their self-esteem grow if they are not seen and heard? Muting children for the ease of your life does not serve them well. And as a parent, we are called to love and serve our children well, to love them unconditionally, and to raise them to be productive adults who impact the world that they touch. 1. Active Listening: Encourage the child to actively listen to the other person's perspective before expressing their own thoughts. This teaches the importance of understanding different viewpoints and promotes respectful dialogue. 2. Use "I" Statements: Encourage the child to use "I" statements when expressing their feelings or opinions. For example, "I feel frustrated when..." or "I would prefer if...". This helps the child take ownership of their emotions and communicate assertively yet respectfully. 3. Practice Empathy: Encourage the child to consider the other person's feelings and perspectives when expressing themselves. By fostering empathy, children learn to communicate with sensitivity and understanding, promoting respectful interactions with others. As you navigate the nuances of parent-child dynamics, remember that healthy relationships are built on trust, respect, and open communication. Encouraging children to express their boundaries and opinions establishes a foundation for strong, resilient connections that can withstand the tests of time. In the journey of parenting, embracing the concept of a child saying no to a parent can lead to deeper connections and a greater sense of harmony within the family unit. By nurturing a space for open dialogue and mutual respect, we can empower our children to navigate the world with confidence and compassion.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What if you looked at your day with the tune of aging gratefully? What if, instead of approaching health with a mindset of scarcity and lack, you viewed aging as an opportunity to be embraced with gratitude? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In a society obsessed with perfection and eternal youth, it's easy to fall into the trap of constantly feeling like you're not good enough. Whether it's your weight, your appearance, or your fitness level, the pressure to measure up to impossible standards can feel relentless. How are you handling that now? But what if you took a page out of a senior manual - age gratefully? The K.I.S.S. ~ Age gratefully! Because if you shifted your perspective and learned to age gratefully, don't you think that would have a profound impact on what you think, which would directly affect your behaviors and actions? 1. Practice Self-Compassion: Instead of beating yourself up for every perceived flaw or shortcoming, try practicing self-compassion. Research shows that individuals who are kind to themselves are more likely to adopt healthy habits and stick to them long-term. Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding you would offer a loved one. 2. Focus on Mindful Movement: Rather than viewing exercise as a punishment for your body, reframe it as a form of self-care and self-love. Engage in activities that bring you joy and make you feel good, whether it's dancing, hiking, yoga, or simply taking a leisurely stroll in nature. Research indicates that incorporating movement into your daily routine not only improves physical health but also boosts mood and mental well-being. 3. Cultivate Gratitude: Gratitude has been linked to numerous health benefits, including reduced stress, improved sleep, and enhanced overall well-being. Take time each day to reflect on the things you're grateful for, whether it's a beautiful sunset, a kind gesture from a friend, or simply the gift of good health. By cultivating a mindset of gratitude, you can shift your focus from what's lacking to what's abundant in your life. "It's not about striving for an unattainable ideal of perfection, but rather embracing the journey of aging with gratitude and grace." - Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the ups and downs of life, remember that aging gratefully is not about achieving a flawless existence but rather finding contentment and joy in the present moment. Treating yourself with kindness. Move your body mindfully. Cultivating gratitude. That's when you can enhance your overall health and well-being as you gracefully navigate the journey of aging.

What if you looked at your day with the tune of aging gratefully? What if, instead of approaching health with a mindset of scarcity and lack, you viewed aging as an opportunity to be embraced with gratitude? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In a society obsessed with perfection and eternal youth, it's easy to fall into the trap of constantly feeling like you're not good enough. Whether it's your weight, your appearance, or your fitness level, the pressure to measure up to impossible standards can feel relentless. How are you handling that now? But what if you took a page out of a senior manual - age gratefully? The K.I.S.S. ~ Age gratefully! Because if you shifted your perspective and learned to age gratefully, don't you think that would have a profound impact on what you think, which would directly affect your behaviors and actions? 1. Practice Self-Compassion: Instead of beating yourself up for every perceived flaw or shortcoming, try practicing self-compassion. Research shows that individuals who are kind to themselves are more likely to adopt healthy habits and stick to them long-term. Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding you would offer a loved one. 2. Focus on Mindful Movement: Rather than viewing exercise as a punishment for your body, reframe it as a form of self-care and self-love. Engage in activities that bring you joy and make you feel good, whether it's dancing, hiking, yoga, or simply taking a leisurely stroll in nature. Research indicates that incorporating movement into your daily routine not only improves physical health but also boosts mood and mental well-being. 3. Cultivate Gratitude: Gratitude has been linked to numerous health benefits, including reduced stress, improved sleep, and enhanced overall well-being. Take time each day to reflect on the things you're grateful for, whether it's a beautiful sunset, a kind gesture from a friend, or simply the gift of good health. By cultivating a mindset of gratitude, you can shift your focus from what's lacking to what's abundant in your life. "It's not about striving for an unattainable ideal of perfection, but rather embracing the journey of aging with gratitude and grace." - Kristianne Wargo As you navigate the ups and downs of life, remember that aging gratefully is not about achieving a flawless existence but rather finding contentment and joy in the present moment. Treating yourself with kindness. Move your body mindfully. Cultivating gratitude. That's when you can enhance your overall health and well-being as you gracefully navigate the journey of aging.

We end up leaving what we thought was important behind for something less fulfilling. Don't lose yourself; lead with vision.

Or is it? When you wake up, which side of the bed do you wake up on? Too often, we let the world influence our thoughts, which affect our actions and eventually snowball into our habits. But what if you got up with the attitude of "It's a good morning!" Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Experts around the world agree that shifting our mindset can have a profound impact on our day-to-day lives. Dr. Caroline Leaf, a cognitive neuroscientist and communication pathologist, emphasizes the power of our thoughts in shaping our lives. She asserts that changing our thoughts can rewire our brains and ultimately transform our behaviors and habits. Dr. Leaf advocates for a proactive approach toward mental well-being, promoting practices such as mindfulness, positive thinking, and gratitude to optimize brain function and overall mental health. My grandson is at the age where he learns one thing and then overuses it. Oh, so sweet! And his latest saying is, "Good morning!" It doesn't matter what time of day. Whether he's getting up from his nap, rising in the morning, or greeting you in the store, he says, "Good morning!" If only we could wake up from the beginning and all throughout our day with that same attitude. According to Dr. Leaf, our thoughts have the power to impact every aspect of our lives, making it essential to cultivate a positive and healthy mindset for a fulfilling and successful existence.  "Every morning is a new opportunity to set the tone for the present." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Set the tone! Here are three things you can do to change your thoughts: 1. Practice Gratitude: Take a moment each morning to reflect on what you are grateful for. Research shows that practicing gratitude can improve mental health and overall well-being. According to Dr. Robert Emmons, a leading gratitude researcher, "Gratitude effectively increases happiness and reduces depression." 2. Positive Affirmations: Start your day by saying positive affirmations to yourself. Affirmations can help rewire your brain for positivity and success. As Louise Hay famously said, "Every thought we think is creating our future." 3. Mindfulness Meditation: Incorporate mindfulness meditation into your morning routine. Mindfulness helps you stay present and focused, reducing stress and anxiety. Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, the founder of mindfulness-based stress reduction, emphasizes, "Wherever you go, there you are." Remember, "Every morning is a new opportunity to set the tone for the day ahead. Start rising to your day with the attitude my grandson carries, "It's a good morning!"   "Be present. Be incredible.

Positive Affirmations: Start your day by saying positive affirmations to yourself. Affirmations can help rewire your brain for positivity and success. As Louise Hay famously said, "Every thought we think is creating our future." 3. Mindfulness Meditation: Incorporate mindfulness meditation into your morning routine. Mindfulness helps you stay present and focused, reducing stress and anxiety. Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, the founder of mindfulness-based stress reduction, emphasizes, "Wherever you go, there you are." Remember, "Every morning is a new opportunity to set the tone for the day ahead. Start rising to your day with the attitude my grandson carries, "It's a good morning!"   "Be present. Be incredible.

Finding a balance is essential to maintaining a healthy marriage. The K.I.S.S. ~ Find a balance! Setting boundaries is crucial when it comes to navigating social media within a marriage. By establishing guidelines together, couples can prevent potential issues from arising. Dr. John Gottman, a renowned marriage expert, emphasizes, "Transparency and open communication are key in setting healthy boundaries around social media use in a marriage." Ensuring both partners are on the same page can help prevent misunderstandings. Spending quality time together without the distractions of social media is another significant step couples can take to strengthen their bond. Dr. Sue Johnson, a psychologist specializing in couples therapy, notes, "Unplugging from social media and focusing on each other fosters deeper emotional connections and intimacy within a marriage." These tech-free moments allow couples to nurture their relationship without external interferences. Expressing appreciation and love offline is equally important in reinforcing the marital relationship. Dr. Gary Chapman, author of "The 5 Love Languages," suggests, "Regularly affirming your partner's worth and expressing love through words and actions can help mitigate the negative effects of social media on marriage." Taking the time to show affection and gratitude can build a strong foundation of trust and understanding within the relationship. As we navigate the digital landscape, let us remember that while social media can enhance our lives, it is essential to prioritize our relationships above virtual connections. By establishing boundaries, spending quality time together, and expressing love offline, couples can safeguard their marriage from the potential pitfalls of social media.   "Be present.

And those who think that nothing will change are fooling themselves. Wise up. Kids change you! Parenthood is a transformational journey that alters your life in ways you never thought possible. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Amidst the chaos of raising children, there are profound moments that shape you into a better version of yourself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Evolve with your child! With change being a constant, you must consider how it affects you and the family.  Here are three ways parents can positively evolve alongside their children. 1. Embrace Flexibility: Children are unpredictable and have a knack for throwing curveballs when you least expect it. Embracing flexibility allows parents to navigate the ups and downs of parenting with grace. Dr. Sarah Roberts, child psychologist, emphasizes, "Flexibility is key in parenting. Adapting to your child's ever-changing needs fosters a strong parent-child bond." 2. Practice Patience: Parenting tests your patience like nothing else. Learning to pause, breathe, and respond instead of react is a skill that benefits both parents and children. Dr. Mark Johnson, family therapist, notes, "Patience is not about waiting; it's about how you act while you're waiting. Cultivating patience leads to a more harmonious family dynamic." 3. Embody Empathy: Understanding your child's perspective is crucial for effective communication and connection. By practicing empathy, parents can create a safe space for their children to express themselves openly. Author and parenting coach, Dr. Emily Collins, states, "Empathy is the bridge that connects hearts. When parents empathize with their children, they build a foundation of trust and understanding." What are you doing to foster an environment of change that doesn't penalize you or your child? In the whirlwind of parenthood, remember, "Just as children grow and change, so do parents. Embrace the journey of change together." - Kristianne Wargo Unlock the transformative power of parenthood by embracing flexibility, practicing patience, and embodying empathy. As you adapt and grow alongside your children, you'll discover a deeper connection and a richer experience of parenting.   "Be present. Be incredible.

And those who think that nothing will change are fooling themselves. Wise up. Kids change you! Parenthood is a transformational journey that alters your life in ways you never thought possible. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Amidst the chaos of raising children, there are profound moments that shape you into a better version of yourself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Evolve with your child! With change being a constant, you must consider how it affects you and the family.  Here are three ways parents can positively evolve alongside their children. 1. Embrace Flexibility: Children are unpredictable and have a knack for throwing curveballs when you least expect it. Embracing flexibility allows parents to navigate the ups and downs of parenting with grace. Dr. Sarah Roberts, child psychologist, emphasizes, "Flexibility is key in parenting. Adapting to your child's ever-changing needs fosters a strong parent-child bond." 2. Practice Patience: Parenting tests your patience like nothing else. Learning to pause, breathe, and respond instead of react is a skill that benefits both parents and children. Dr. Mark Johnson, family therapist, notes, "Patience is not about waiting; it's about how you act while you're waiting. Cultivating patience leads to a more harmonious family dynamic." 3. Embody Empathy: Understanding your child's perspective is crucial for effective communication and connection. By practicing empathy, parents can create a safe space for their children to express themselves openly. Author and parenting coach, Dr. Emily Collins, states, "Empathy is the bridge that connects hearts. When parents empathize with their children, they build a foundation of trust and understanding." What are you doing to foster an environment of change that doesn't penalize you or your child? In the whirlwind of parenthood, remember, "Just as children grow and change, so do parents. Embrace the journey of change together." - Kristianne Wargo Unlock the transformative power of parenthood by embracing flexibility, practicing patience, and embodying empathy. As you adapt and grow alongside your children, you'll discover a deeper connection and a richer experience of parenting.   "Be present. Be incredible.

That's why free is not always better." ~ Kristianne Wargo Think back to what you have last spent money on. Did you follow through with using it? It's time to make a commitment to yourself and your well-being. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make a commitment! Here are three things you can do to truly invest in your health: 1. Invest in Quality Nutrition: Instead of falling for fad diets or quick fixes, invest in high-quality, nutrient-dense foods that nourish your body from the inside out. As renowned nutritionist, Joy Bauer, advises, "Your body is your most priceless possession; you've got to take care of it!" 2. Prioritize Regular Exercise: Rather than collecting dust-covered gym memberships or unused fitness equipment, invest in activities that you enjoy and look forward to. Fitness expert, Jillian Michaels, emphasizes, "Your health is an investment, not an expense. It's important to make sure you are investing in yourself." 3. Embrace Mental Wellness: Beyond physical health, prioritize mental and emotional well-being. Invest in practices such as meditation, therapy, or self-care routines that support your mental health. As Dr. Deepak Chopra reminds us, "To make the right choices in life, you have to get in touch with your soul. To do this, you need to experience solitude, which most people are afraid of, because in the silence you hear the truth and know the solutions." What truth are you telling yourself? And is it the truth? Honesty is the best policy when it comes to who you see in the mirror. And we're not just talking about weight and where the wrinkles are. We are talking about being kind to yourself with a genuine interest to know the reality you see, but having a heart to know you are not going to stay there. In a world filled with endless options and distractions, it's time to prioritize what truly matters – your health and well-being. Put your money where your mouth is and create your now.

In a world filled with endless options and distractions, it's time to prioritize what truly matters – your health and well-being. Put your money where your mouth is and create your now.

This sentiment echoes through time, reminding us that progress is achieved not solely through giant leaps, but through consistent, determined steps forward. In a world that glorifies overnight success and instant gratification, it is essential to remember that greatness is cultivated over time. Each small action we take, no matter how insignificant it may seem, contributes to the overall tapestry of our lives.

The power of consistency and dedication propels you toward your aspirations. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the power of small steps! At times, you may feel discouraged by the magnitude of your dreams, questioning whether your efforts are truly making a difference.

Kristianne Wargo said, "In the seed of your tomorrow lies the fruit of your future, which requires your presence." This profound insight urges us to trust in the process and have faith in the potential of our endeavors, no matter how modest they may appear. Embracing the power of small steps allows you to appreciate the significance of incremental progress. It invites you to savor the journey, relishing each small victory along the way. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day, and the greatest achievements often stem from humble beginnings. So, take that first step, no matter how small.

But what happens when life happens? Your life is not a list! Let's look at our reality. We prioritize our dreams based on the items neatly listed on a page, convinced that ticking off each task will lead us to fulfillment and success. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yet what happens when life throws us a curveball, disrupting our carefully curated lists and challenging our rigid schedules? Life ebbs and flows without regard for our lists and plans. It has its ups and downs, plus all around. It has a way of surprising us, pushing us out of our comfort zones, and teaching us valuable lessons in resilience and adaptability. At what point do you look at yourself and see if what you are doing that you think should be helping might actually be hurting you in a different manner, one you had not yet considered? Break free from the confines of a list-full life and embrace the unpredictable beauty of living in the moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the unpredictable beauty of living in the moment; your presence! 1. Knowing where you are and where you are NOT headed: Sometimes, we get so caught up in chasing our goals that we lose sight of the bigger picture. Take a moment to reassess your path and consider whether your current trajectory aligns with your true desires and values. 2. The position of adaptability: Life is unpredictable, and plans often go awry. Instead of resisting change, learn to adapt and flow with the twists and turns that come your way. Embrace uncertainty as an opportunity for growth and discovery. 3. Flex your "I got this!" muscles: Cultivate a mindset of resilience and determination. Don't be deterred by past failures when faced with challenges or setbacks. Here is where you jump in. Forge ahead with confidence, knowing you have the strength and tenacity to overcome any obstacle.  Your presence will awaken your day bringing in the colorful details that you missed when you were caught in the list. True joy and fulfillment are not found in checking off the boxes, but in savoring the colorful details of life that unfold when you let go of your need for control. Yes, be mindful of what you need to get done, but don't miss what's right in front of you. So, the next time you find yourself overwhelmed by the weight of your lists, take a deep breath and remind yourself that your life is not a checklist to be completed, but a journey to be experienced fully and authentically. Embrace the unexpected, savor the present moment, and watch as the beauty of life unfolds before you in ways you never imagined possible.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Why do relaxed days bring recreational chaos? If you're a parent, you know the challenge of transitioning from structured routines to the more relaxed days of summer fun. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the busyness of the season and lose yourself in the chaos. However, with a few simple strategies, you can maintain a sense of balance and structure during the summer months while still enjoying the spontaneity and freedom that the season brings. For many parents, the lack of a set schedule can be daunting. Without the structure of school days and extracurricular activities, it can feel like anything goes. However, maintaining a loose routine can help keep everyone on track while still allowing for flexibility and fun. "Summer is a time for adventure and making memories with your kids, but it's also crucial to maintain some semblance of routine to avoid feeling overwhelmed." ~ Kristianne Wargo If you want your summer fun to be just that, FUN-- You've got to find the balance between structure and spontaneity during the summer months.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the happy medium between structure and spontaneity!   To wrangle in your summer schedule and keep things running smoothly, here are three things parents can do: 1. Create a flexible daily routine: While it's important to allow for spontaneity and relaxation during the summer, having a basic routine can help provide structure and stability for both parents and children. Set aside specific times for meals, activities, and bedtime, but allow for flexibility and adjustments as needed. 2. Plan ahead and prioritize activities: Sit down with your family and discuss what activities and outings are important to each member. By planning ahead and prioritizing key events, you can ensure that everyone gets to participate in the things they enjoy most without feeling overwhelmed by too many commitments. 3. Rest and Recover: Amidst the whirlwind of summer activities and family fun, it's essential for parents to prioritize rest and recovery. Make time for activities that recharge you, whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or having a quiet moment to yourself. Making time for doing nothing but resting helps to unwind and allows you to soak in the fun! As you navigate the transition from school year routines to summer fun, remember to embrace the spontaneity of the season while also finding ways to maintain a sense of structure and balance. By incorporating a loose routine, planning ahead, and resting, you can wrangle in your summer schedule and make the most of this special time with your family. "Be present. Be incredible.

Set aside specific times for meals, activities, and bedtime, but allow for flexibility and adjustments as needed. 2. Plan ahead and prioritize activities: Sit down with your family and discuss what activities and outings are important to each member. By planning ahead and prioritizing key events, you can ensure that everyone gets to participate in the things they enjoy most without feeling overwhelmed by too many commitments. 3. Rest and Recover: Amidst the whirlwind of summer activities and family fun, it's essential for parents to prioritize rest and recovery. Make time for activities that recharge you, whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or having a quiet moment to yourself. Making time for doing nothing but resting helps to unwind and allows you to soak in the fun! As you navigate the transition from school year routines to summer fun, remember to embrace the spontaneity of the season while also finding ways to maintain a sense of structure and balance. By incorporating a loose routine, planning ahead, and resting, you can wrangle in your summer schedule and make the most of this special time with your family. "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you shifted your perspective and realized that what you see is NOT what you get?

Renowned author Kristianne Wargo once said, "Don't let your current circumstances define your future possibilities." These words hold a profound truth - just because you see limitations or challenges in front of you does not mean you are bound to them. You have the ability to shape your own destiny, to mold your reality into something that fulfills you and brings joy to your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ What you see is NOT what you get! So, how can you harness the power within you to turn what you see into a stepping stone toward greatness? Start by acknowledging the present moment, accepting where you are, but refusing to settle for anything less than your best. Embrace the opportunity for growth, for change. Consider this: What aspects of your life are no longer serving you? What beliefs or patterns are holding you back from reaching your full potential? It's time to prune away the dead branches, to clear the path for new growth and new opportunities. Your circumstances do not define you - they are simply the starting point for your next chapter. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, you have the choice to shape your reality, to craft a life that aligns with your values and aspirations. Embrace the journey of growth, of transformation, of becoming the best version of yourself. What you see is not the end, but the beginning of a beautiful, awe-inspiring story waiting to unfold. It's time to grow where you are planted. It's time to prune what isn't working. It's time to understand the place you stand, but know you have a choice not to stay there. Your future is bright, and tomorrow is limitless. So go forth with courage, with determination, and with the unwavering belief that what you see is NOT what you get.

You are destined for greatness, but first, you must be honest with yourself. What is it that you truly desire to accomplish? What dreams are waiting to be realized once you wholeheartedly believe in yourself? Where are you right now? It's crucial to acknowledge that you are your only limitation. There is no way you will ever overcome your own limitations. Stop doubting and believe! The moment you shed your doubts and embrace belief in your abilities, you pave the way for unimaginable growth and greatness. Because if you keep drowning in your failures and past, you will never rise to see what's possible. So, let go of the weight of past failures and self-imposed limitations. Embrace the power of belief, and watch as your dreams transform into reality. The journey will be long, but the twists and turns will be a beautiful adventure.

You are destined for greatness, but first, you must be honest with yourself. What is it that you truly desire to accomplish? What dreams are waiting to be realized once you wholeheartedly believe in yourself? Where are you right now? It's crucial to acknowledge that you are your only limitation. There is no way you will ever overcome your own limitations. Stop doubting and believe! The moment you shed your doubts and embrace belief in your abilities, you pave the way for unimaginable growth and greatness. Because if you keep drowning in your failures and past, you will never rise to see what's possible. So, let go of the weight of past failures and self-imposed limitations. Embrace the power of belief, and watch as your dreams transform into reality. The journey will be long, but the twists and turns will be a beautiful adventure. As you journey towards your aspirations, remember that the key to unlocking your full potential lies in your unwavering belief in yourself.   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, lingering too long on past mistakes or holding onto past traumas can hinder our progress. Don't stumble on things behind you. Because when you do, you prevent yourself from moving forward. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's important to acknowledge the past, learn from it, and then actively work towards a brighter future. However, don't be too quick to dismiss your past. Your past has lessons that need to be understood and situations that need to be addressed. Deal with the past so you can be present in your everyday.  According to a study conducted by the American Psychological Association, individuals who dwell excessively on past events are more likely to experience higher levels of stress, anxiety, and depression. This constant rumination can lead to a cycle of negative thinking that inhibits personal growth and happiness. Once you have the past dealt with in the best way possible that points you in the direction of well-being, then you can take steps to move forward. Dr. Rebecca Ray, a psychologist specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy, explains, "Our past can provide valuable lessons for the future, but when we fixate on it, we risk missing out on the opportunities and experiences that await us in the present moment. It's essential to strike a balance between reflecting on the past and actively engaging with the present." Maintaining a healthy perspective on the past involves letting go of negative self-talk and reframing past experiences in a more positive light. Psychologist Dr. Amanda Jones adds, "By practicing mindfulness and staying grounded in the present, individuals can cultivate resilience and pave the way for a more fulfilling future." "Embrace your past as a stepping stone, not a stumbling block." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace your past as a stepping stone, not a stumbling block! It would be great if we could go into our memories and press "delete". Yet, even if we could do that, we would not be able to appreciate all that we've been through. To break free from the shackles of the past and move towards a brighter future, here are three actionable steps individuals can take: 1. Practice Self-Compassion: Treat yourself with kindness and understanding, recognizing that everyone makes mistakes and experiences setbacks. Self-compassion allows for forgiveness and promotes a healthier self-image. 2. Set Current Goals: Define your aspirations and create a roadmap for achieving them. By setting specific, attainable goals, you can focus your energy on progress and growth rather than dwelling on past failures. 3. Seek Support: Reach out to trusted friends, family members, or mental health professionals, counselors, and coaches for guidance and encouragement. Building a support system can provide valuable insights and help individuals gain perspective on their past experiences. As Dr. Brene Brown says, "Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we'll ever do." Are you willing to do what it takes to understand the past, knowing that the present and future will be much brighter because you did the work, and now you'll be excited for what's to come, not angry about what happened? "The past is a teacher, not a life sentence." ~ Kristianne Wargo By taking proactive steps to break free from its grip, you can unlock your full potential and embrace the possibilities ahead.

But amidst the chaos and struggles, there is a beacon of light that offers unwavering hope – a hope that transcends circumstances and fills the heart with peace and joy. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Romans 15:13 beautifully captures this essence of hope, reminding us that it is not merely a fleeting feeling but a deep-seated belief that transcends our understanding. "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." These words serve as a reminder that our hope is not grounded in temporary solutions or quick fixes but in a steadfast faith in God, who is the ultimate source of hope. In the midst of everyday misery and challenges, finding hope can feel like an uphill battle. Whether it's facing financial struggles, health issues, relationship problems, or any other form of adversity, the road to hope may seem long and arduous. However, Romans 15:13 offers a powerful reminder that true hope is not dependent on our circumstances but on our unwavering belief in God's faithfulness and promises. The K.I.S.S. ~ All joy and peace in believing! So, where can we find hope in the midst of our everyday misery? The answer lies in turning our gaze towards the God of hope, who promises to fill us with joy and peace as we trust in Him. By anchoring our hope in His unchanging character and promises, we can find solace in the midst of life's storms and challenges. As we allow the power of the Holy Spirit to work in our hearts and minds, we can experience a transformation that enables us to abound in hope, even in the face of adversity. It is this divine hope that sustains us, uplifts us, and fills our hearts with a joy that surpasses all understanding. So today, as you navigate the ups and downs of life, remember that your hope is not found in temporary solutions or fleeting moments of happiness. Instead, it is anchored in a faith that transcends circumstances and fills your soul with a peace that surpasses all understanding. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, Romans 15:13 offers a powerful reminder that true hope is not dependent on our circumstances but on our unwavering belief in God's faithfulness and promises. The K.I.S.S. ~ All joy and peace in believing! So, where can we find hope in the midst of our everyday misery? The answer lies in turning our gaze towards the God of hope, who promises to fill us with joy and peace as we trust in Him. By anchoring our hope in His unchanging character and promises, we can find solace in the midst of life's storms and challenges. As we allow the power of the Holy Spirit to work in our hearts and minds, we can experience a transformation that enables us to abound in hope, even in the face of adversity. It is this divine hope that sustains us, uplifts us, and fills our hearts with a joy that surpasses all understanding. So today, as you navigate the ups and downs of life, remember that your hope is not found in temporary solutions or fleeting moments of happiness. Instead, it is anchored in a faith that transcends circumstances and fills your soul with a peace that surpasses all understanding. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Do you feel like your light shines bright for the one closest to you; do you feel seen? For those who feel unseen in their marriage, the repercussions can be profound, touching on issues of self-worth, communication breakdowns, and a sense of loneliness within the union. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Relationship experts emphasize the importance of feeling validated and acknowledged within the context of a partnership. Dr. John Gottman, renowned for his work on marital stability and divorce prediction, notes that "Feeling understood and appreciated are key components of a healthy relationship."  When one partner feels unseen, it can lead to a breakdown in these essential elements, creating a rift that deepens over time. Psychotherapist Esther Perel underscores the impact of feeling unnoticed, stating, "In marriage, one often feels like they are cruising through the motions, silently screaming for attention and connection."  This silent plea for recognition can manifest in various ways, from emotional distancing to engaging in behaviors that seek validation outside the relationship. The consequences of feeling unseen in a marriage are far-reaching. Lack of validation can erode self-esteem, leading to feelings of inadequacy and unworthiness. Communication breakdowns often follow suit, as the unheard partner may withdraw or become resentful, further widening the gap between them. Over time, the emotional disconnection can culminate in a sense of loneliness, even within the confines of a committed relationship. "In marriage, the invisible wounds of feeling unseen can leave lasting scars on the heart, dimming even the brightest of love's light." - Kristianne Wargo What can be done if you are the one who feels unseen? The K.I.S.S. ~ Shine a light on what isn't seen!   Whatever stays in the dark will be unresolved in the shadows of your every day. At some point, you have to be willing to shine a light on what isn't seen. 1. Initiate Open and Honest Communication: Expressing your feelings of being unseen to your partner is the first step towards resolving the issue. Schedule a time to have a calm, open conversation about how you've been feeling and what you need from them to feel more acknowledged in the relationship. And if you are not heard, you have bigger problems. 2. Seek Couples Therapy: Sometimes, having a neutral third party guide your discussions can be incredibly beneficial. Consider seeking couples therapy to explore deeper-rooted issues, improve communication, and learn strategies to ensure both partners feel seen and heard within the marriage. 3. Focus on Self-Care and Individual Growth: While working on your relationship dynamics, prioritize self-care and personal development; who you are and who you are becoming. Engage in activities that bring you joy, pursue hobbies that fulfill you, and prioritize your emotional well-being. By investing in yourself, you can cultivate a stronger sense of self-worth and resilience, irrespective of external validation. However, this is not about you fluffing your ego. This is about you becoming a better person regardless of the circumstances you find yourself in. Building a marriage where both partners feel truly seen requires a conscious effort to listen, validate, and appreciate one another. By acknowledging our partner's presence, celebrating their uniqueness, and fostering open communication, we can cultivate a relationship that thrives on mutual recognition and understanding. So, take a moment to ask yourself: Do you feel seen in your marriage? And if the answer is no, it may be time to shine a light on the unseen parts of your partnership, illuminating the path towards a deeper, more connected bond. Remember, a marriage where both partners feel truly seen is a marriage worth fighting for. "Be present. Be incredible.

Oh, how we pressurize our parenting lives, expecting ourselves to be everything and go everywhere; don't miss a moment! That ever-pressing demand to be present for every moment of your child's life might initially start as a desire, but is it sustainable? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In today's fast-paced world, being a parent can feel like being in a whirlwind of trying to be everywhere and go anywhere with your children, all while juggling work, household chores, and personal time.  The pressure to not miss a single moment of your child's life can be overwhelming at times. But is it really necessary to be constantly on the go and present for every single moment? Or is it about finding a balance and cherishing quality time with your children? Parenting experts like Dr. Shefali Tsabary, author of "The Conscious Parent," emphasize the importance of finding self-care and maintaining your own identity as a parent. It's crucial not to lose yourself in the chaos of raising a family. Remember, taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of your children. Yes, that's true. But on the other side, if you have littles, they solely depend upon you. And that means you might be losing sleep if they need to be fed in the middle of the night. There is no clear-cut answer to this dilemma. This truly is dependent ton the season and stage of life. Honestly, it becomes circumstantial. However, in saying that, you can't say that when you have children, nothing will change.  Now that is a lie! Children change you!! You can't keep doing life the same way before you had children. Can you imagine what it would be like to take your child to work and have them sit in with you on business meetings and negotiations? To some degree, kids can go to work. But then your accessibility is limited.  So in looking at this, don't miss a moment of what you can control in the season and stage of life that you're in. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't miss a moment that matters!   That means you have gotta release the pressure of not missing a moment, because there might be other moments that you are needed more. Again, you have to look at this from what you can control. Here are three things parents can do to avoid losing themselves in the midst of feeling the pressure to not miss a moment: 1. Schedule "Me Time" - Make it a priority to schedule time for yourself, whether it's a relaxing bubble bath, a walk in the park, or indulging in a hobby you love. Setting aside time for self-care can help you recharge and be a better parent. The ME TIME is not to ignore the children, but to rejuvenate your heart in serving your family. 2. Delegate Responsibilities — It's okay not to do everything. Ask for help! Delegate tasks to your partner, family members, or a trusted babysitter. Pay someone to do the jobs that other people can do so you can do the jobs only YOU can do.  3. Be Present in the Moment - While it's important to create lasting memories with your children, it's also essential to be present in the moment and not just physically there. Put away distractions like phones and work emails, and truly engage with your children during quality time together. You hanging out in the bleachers, taking up space so your child sees your face? That is NOT being present. That is merely making a statement that you are a super mom or super dad. But really, where does that land at the end of the day? It might be great if you're Mr. and Mrs. Incredible. But otherwise, it falls flat.  Be careful not to fall into the trap that busyness puts you in because all you have are seconds cause you didn't want to schedule minutes. Slow down to speed up! Your day is not a marathon even though it feels that way. So take a step back and decide what really matters from the situation. Maybe your child would be okay with you missing the play, but they really want you there when for their first prom. Communicate with your children and the ones you are raising your kids with. Figure out how you can parent well without driving yourself into the ground. Don't miss a moment. Or better yet - don't miss a moment that matters to your child. "Be present. Be incredible.

In those moments when it seems like the world is moving a million miles an hour, find strength in exhaustion. In the hustle and bustle of our busy lives, it's not uncommon to hit that wall of exhaustion that makes everything seem insurmountable; barely able to lift a finger, sapping our motivation and leaving us feeling stagnant.

Yet, it's during these times of deep fatigue and weariness that our true resilience shines through.  It's easy to keep going when the sun is shining and the wind is at our backs, but it's during the storms of exhaustion that our grit and determination are truly tested. When every step feels like a herculean effort, when even a simple smile feels like a heavy burden, it's important to remember that this too shall pass.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Find strength in exhaustion! As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "In the midst of exhaustion, we find our strength."  It's in those moments of deep fatigue that we discover reservoirs of inner strength we never knew we had. It's when we feel like we're drowning that we learn to swim.  So, how do we keep going when every fiber of our being screams for rest?  Instead of looking at the mountain of responsibilities ahead, focus on taking one step at a time. As Lao Tzu said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."  By breaking down your tasks into smaller, more achievable goals, you'll find that the seemingly impossible becomes possible.  And don't forget to see when you're running on empty. You can't get anywhere if you don't have fuel.  It's crucial to maintain the energy and motivation needed to keep going. As Audre Lorde famously said, "Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation." Whether it's taking a hot bath, going for a walk in nature, or simply taking a few moments to breathe deeply, self-care is essential to replenishing your energy stores.  Simply BREATHE!! Remember, you are stronger than you think.  "When the weight of the world feels too heavy to bear, remember that you have the power to rise above it." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, take a deep breath, gather your strength, and keep moving forward. In the midst of exhaustion, you will find your resilience, your determination, and your true strength.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Innovative approaches to health and fitness are emerging, offering new ways to achieve optimal results.

Renowned health expert Jonathan Bailor emphasizes the importance of sustainable habits and personalized approaches to health.  He advocates for a holistic view of wellness that encompasses, not only physical, but also mental and emotional well-being.

It's never too late to start afresh and embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation. Embrace the change, and watch as your body and mind flourish in ways you never thought possible.

Why should our obstacles triumph over our aspirations? Rise above the shadows. Why should we surrender to the limitations that life presents to us? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    I loved this year's motto, "You are created for more, so embrace 2024."  Now that all sounds good and great. But do you believe it? Do you really think beyond what you see? Can you imagine how your life can be different based on your choices? "Rise up! Stand up! Stop hiding in the midst of the chaos. Stop playing the victim when you can choose to change your direction." The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above the shadows! Shed the cloak of victimhood. Stand tall amidst the chaos and boldly step forward into the light of empowerment and self-determination. It requires a conscious decision to confront and overcome the challenges that attempt to dim your light. In the words of the legendary Maya Angelou, "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it." Our lives are a canvas waiting to be painted with intentionality and purpose.  Every thought, every action, every response shapes the masterpiece you are becoming. As you move forward with determination and mindfulness, honor the potential that resides within you and leads to greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, as you journey through this year of endless possibilities, carry within you the belief that you can conquer any obstacle, overcome any adversity, and realize your most audacious dreams. Choose to change your direction. Rise above the shadows, for you are indeed created for more.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    I loved this year's motto, "You are created for more, so embrace 2024."  Now that all sounds good and great. But do you believe it? Do you really think beyond what you see? Can you imagine how your life can be different based on your choices? "Rise up! Stand up! Stop hiding in the midst of the chaos. Stop playing the victim when you can choose to change your direction." The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above the shadows! Shed the cloak of victimhood. Stand tall amidst the chaos and boldly step forward into the light of empowerment and self-determination. It requires a conscious decision to confront and overcome the challenges that attempt to dim your light. In the words of the legendary Maya Angelou, "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it." Our lives are a canvas waiting to be painted with intentionality and purpose.  Every thought, every action, every response shapes the masterpiece you are becoming. As you move forward with determination and mindfulness, honor the potential that resides within you and leads to greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, as you journey through this year of endless possibilities, carry within you the belief that you can conquer any obstacle, overcome any adversity, and realize your most audacious dreams. Choose to change your direction. Rise above the shadows, for you are indeed created for more.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🎥 Karen Kingsbury Productions Presents <a href="https://someonelikeyou.movie" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone Like You.movie</a> 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's as if we're stuck in a rut, unable to break free from the heaviness of our surroundings. Even when the chaos has nothing to do with us personally, its impact can still weigh heavily on our spirits. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Amidst the chaos and uncertainty, it's crucial to remember that we have the power to navigate through the storm and emerge stronger on the other side.  Regardless of what is happening, stay the course! The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay the course! Now if you choose to stay the course, it's not going to be easy. You are accepting a challenge that you have no control over EXCEPT your own responses to the situation or circumstances. Here are three actions individuals can take to stay the course, reinforced by insights from experts in resilience and mental well-being. 1. Cultivate Grit As renowned psychologist Dr. Angela Duckworth emphasizes, cultivating grit is essential in weathering tough times. Grit is the tenacity and resilience to persevere in the face of challenges, setbacks, and failures. By developing a mindset focused on long-term goals and staying committed to them, individuals can summon the inner strength needed to overcome adversity. 2. Stay Resilient with Self-Care Another key aspect of staying resilient during difficult times is practicing self-care. Dr. Vivek Murthy, former Surgeon General of the United States, underscores the importance of maintaining physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Engaging in activities that bring joy, seeking support from loved ones, and prioritizing rest are vital components of self-care that can replenish our energy reserves and fortify us to face life's storms. 3. Be Vulnerable Furthermore, Dr. Brene Brown, a research professor who specializes in resilience, highlights the significance of vulnerability in building emotional resilience. Acknowledging and processing our feelings, sharing our struggles with trusted individuals, and seeking help when needed are courageous acts that can foster connection and resilience. "Vulnerability wins the heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Just as a tree needs support to weather a storm, your dreams require nurturing and protection to flourish amidst chaos and uncertainty." By tending to your dreams with care and taking proactive steps to safeguard them, you can sustain your momentum even in challenging times. Remember, like the determined dog digging around the tree, you have the power to secure your dream, replace the shaky ground with firm support, and continue growing towards your aspirations. Stay rooted in your purpose, stay connected with your support system, and stay resilient in the face of adversity. Your growth is unstoppable, even when the world around you may seem to be crumbling.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But how can you live life if you don't pause for the cause of refreshment? Instead of giving your power away to another day, reclaim the Sabbath. In today's fast-paced world, where hustle culture often takes center stage, the concept of Sabbath may seem outdated or impractical. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But how is rest outdated or impractical? However, delving into the true essence of the Sabbath from a biblical perspective sheds light on its profound significance. Sabbath, originating from the Hebrew word "Shabbat," means to cease or rest. In the book of Genesis, we read that God rested on the seventh day after creating the heavens and the earth, establishing a rhythm of work and rest. We are consistently encouraged to find rest in the Lord throughout the Bible. Psalm 62:1 reminds us, "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him." Peace and security are found when you entrust your life to God.  The Greek term "sabbaton" signifies a day of sacred assembly and rest. In Matthew 11:28, Jesus extends a powerful invitation, saying, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." This invitation serves as a comforting reminder that in our moments of exhaustion and overwhelm, we can find comfort and renewal in the presence of the Lord. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim the Sabbath! Renowned evangelist Dr. Robert Schuler emphasized the importance of the Sabbath, stating, "Sunday is the perfect day to refuel your soul and to be grateful for each and every one of your blessings." This sentiment is echoed throughout the Bible, underscoring the divine recognition of rest as a vital component of our well-being. Hebrews 4:9-10 further emphasizes the significance of entering into God's rest, stating, "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This passage underscores the spiritual rest that transcends physical relaxation, inviting us to release our burdens and find peace in God's unchanging presence. In a world constantly vying for our attention and productivity, reclaiming the Sabbath is not merely a matter of convenience but a reflection of honoring God's design for holistic living. Kristianne Wargo aptly says, "In the stillness of the Sabbath, we find restoration for our souls and realign our priorities with what truly matters." The Bible consistently portrays rest as a foundational aspect of our faith journey, reminding us of the restorative power of surrendering to God's care and provision. As we realign our perspective on Sabbath, let us embrace the divine invitation to rest, reflect, and rejuvenate, recognizing that true fulfillment transcends the relentless pursuit of productivity.

How can a marriage survive if you don't stop being a doormat? When one spouse feels like they are constantly being walked over, it changes the dynamic of the marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Marriage is no longer a partnership; it becomes a one-person show. Dreams and goals are no longer considered. And maybe you're not sure if you are in a marriage where you are the doormat, or treating your partner as such. The "walking all over" effect can manifest itself in various subtle or overt ways that erode one's sense of self-worth and the value you add as an individual. Marriage, yes, is a partnership where 2 become 1; however, the individual is not lose themselves because of another person. Some examples of being a doormat in marriage is: 1. Lack of Communication: Your spouse consistently dismisses or belittles your opinions, feelings, and needs. Your voice is silenced and you feel unheard in important discussions or decision-making processes. 2. Unequal Power Dynamics: One partner consistently exerts control over the other, making unilateral decisions without considering the other's input or feelings. This imbalance of power can lead to a sense of helplessness and lack of autonomy. 3. Emotional Neglect: Your emotional well-being is neglected, and your spouse fails to show empathy or support during challenging times. You may feel isolated and unsupported in dealing with your emotions or struggles. 4. Constant Criticism or Blame: You are frequently criticized, blamed, or made to feel responsible for issues in the relationship, even when they are not entirely your fault. This pattern of negativity can erode your self-esteem and confidence over time. 5. Lack of Appreciation: Your efforts, contributions, and sacrifices go unnoticed or unappreciated by your spouse. Your value in the relationship is overshadowed, leaving you feeling unacknowledged and unvalued. Signs that you might be feeling walked all over in your marriage include: 1. Feeling like your needs and opinions are consistently ignored or devalued. 2. Always giving in to your partner's demands or desires at the expense of your own. 3. Constantly feeling drained, unfulfilled, or unappreciated in the relationship. 4. Having a sense of powerlessness or helplessness in influencing decisions or dynamics within the marriage. 5. Experiencing a lack of emotional support, empathy, or understanding from your spouse. Recognizing these signs is the first step towards reclaiming who you are and who you are becoming, your self-worth within the marriage. If you want to have a healthier, more harmonious relationship dynamic, you need to address these patterns and reclaim your voice. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim your voice!   As you consider this for yourself, be careful to make sure you look at it from both perspectives. Being in a marriage means you do need to take into consideration both you and your spouse. Because if you are quick to point fingers and not look at the totality of the marriage and what you bring to the relationship, then your actions, or lack there of,  can be just as bad as what is being done to you. Here are three essential steps to reclaim your voice and stop being a doormat in your relationship. 1. Set Boundaries: Marriage counselor Leslie Vernick emphasizes the importance of setting healthy boundaries in a relationship. Communicate assertively with your spouse about your needs and limits. Dr. Gary Chapman, author of "The Five Love Languages," suggests that understanding and expressing your needs can help create a more balanced dynamic in the marriage. 2. Practice Self-Care: Make self-care a priority in your life. Jimmy Evans, founder of MarriageToday and XO Conference, stresses that taking care of yourself emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually can strengthen your sense of self-worth. Remember, it's essential to fill your own cup before you can pour into your relationship. 3. Seek Counseling: If you feel consistently unheard and undervalued in your marriage, seek the support of a professional counselor. A trained therapist can help you and your spouse improve communication, address underlying issues, and work towards a healthier relationship dynamic. As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "You can stop being a doormat, but it first starts with who you are and who you are becoming." Remember, reclaiming your self-worth is a journey that begins with prioritizing your own well-being and setting boundaries that honor your value in the relationship. By taking these proactive steps, you can begin to shift the dynamic in your marriage and foster a more respectful and equitable partnership. It's time to stop being a doormat and start valuing yourself within your relationship. "Be present. Be incredible.

How can a marriage survive if you don't stop being a doormat? When one spouse feels like they are constantly being walked over, it changes the dynamic of the marriage.

Dreams and goals are no longer considered. And maybe you're not sure if you are in a marriage where you are the doormat, or treating your partner as such. The "walking all over" effect can manifest itself in various subtle or overt ways that erode one's sense of self-worth and the value you add as an individual. Marriage, yes, is a partnership where 2 become 1; however, the individual is not lose themselves because of another person. Some examples of being a doormat in marriage is: 1. Lack of Communication: Your spouse consistently dismisses or belittles your opinions, feelings, and needs. Your voice is silenced and you feel unheard in important discussions or decision-making processes. 2. Unequal Power Dynamics: One partner consistently exerts control over the other, making unilateral decisions without considering the other's input or feelings. This imbalance of power can lead to a sense of helplessness and lack of autonomy. 3. Emotional Neglect: Your emotional well-being is neglected, and your spouse fails to show empathy or support during challenging times. You may feel isolated and unsupported in dealing with your emotions or struggles. 4. Constant Criticism or Blame: You are frequently criticized, blamed, or made to feel responsible for issues in the relationship, even when they are not entirely your fault.

We may hope they excel in areas we value, whether academically, athletically, or artistically. However, do you nurture their potential or their dreams?  In a world where societal pressure can influence parental decisions, it's essential to remember that a child's happiness and fulfillment should always come first. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Nurturing a child's potential involves recognizing and developing their inherent abilities, talents, and strengths. This can include providing opportunities for growth, education, and skill development in areas where the child naturally excels. However, it can encourage more of your desires regardless of what the child states. On the other hand, supporting the child's own dreams entails encouraging and empowering them to pursue their passions, interests, and aspirations, even if they may differ from what parents initially envisioned for their child. It involves listening to the child's desires, understanding their goals, and providing the necessary support and guidance to help them achieve their dreams. While nurturing a child's potential may involve identifying areas of strength and talent to foster growth, supporting the child's dreams is about acknowledging their individuality and allowing them to explore their unique path to fulfillment. Both approaches are valuable in shaping a child's future, as they encompass a balance of encouragement, empowerment, and personalized support tailored to the child's needs and aspirations. But you must always keep the interest of the child first! Dr. Meg Meeker, a renowned pediatrician and author, emphasizes the importance of guiding children toward their own passions and dreams. "Every child is unique, with their own set of gifts and talents," she explains. "It's crucial for parents to listen to their children, understand their aspirations, and support them wholeheartedly." Parenting expert Dr. Laura Markham echoes this sentiment, stating, "Children thrive when they are allowed to explore their interests and pursue what brings them joy. Our role as parents is to provide guidance and encouragement, not to impose our own agenda." Ultimately, you've got to guide to provide. The K.I.S.S. ~ Guide to provide! If we are always chasing what we "think" is going to be good for the kiddos, when will we ever see the truth as to what "is" good for the children? "Our eyes and ears need to be open so our heart can see what inspires our children to be." ~ Kristianne Wargo Three Ways to Support Your Child's Dreams: 1. Listen Actively: Take the time to engage in meaningful conversations with your child. Encourage them to share their thoughts, dreams, and aspirations. You'll gain insights into what truly matters to them by actively listening. 2. Provide Freedom: Offer your child the freedom to explore different interests and hobbies. Avoid imposing rigid expectations and allow them to discover what truly resonates with their heart. 3. Celebrate Their Unique Qualities: Recognize and celebrate your child's individuality. Encourage them to embrace their strengths and passions, even if they differ from your own preferences. Kristianne Wargo wisely reminds us, "A parent's love and support should serve as a guiding light, illuminating the path for our children to follow their own dreams." In a world where external pressures can cloud our judgment, it's essential to prioritize our children's happiness and well-being. By embracing their uniqueness, celebrating their passions, and providing unwavering support, we empower them to soar toward success on their own terms. Remember, the greatest gift we can give our children is the freedom to be themselves.

Yet, amidst the chaos and uncertainty, there lies an opportunity to shift our perspective and turn the tables on bad news. Renowned psychologist and author, Martin Seligman, once said, "Learned helplessness is the giving-up reaction that follows from the belief that whatever you do doesn't matter." These words ring true in the face of adversity.

By reframing our thoughts and beliefs, we can empower ourselves to overcome challenges and find the silver linings in any situation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn the tables on bad news! Psychologist Carol S. Dweck, known for her research on the growth mindset, emphasizes the importance of cultivating a resilient attitude toward setbacks. She states, "The view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life." This notion highlights the transformative power of mindset in shaping our responses to adversity. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Don't let the chaos of the world bury the blessings that are right in front of you." This powerful reminder serves as a beacon of hope in times of darkness. By acknowledging the blessings amidst the storm, we can find strength and courage to navigate life's challenges. As you navigate the ups and downs of life, it's crucial to remember that bad news does not define us. "Your setback is an opportunity for a comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing a positive mindset and focusing on gratitude, you can turn the tables on bad news and pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.

Yet, amidst the chaos and uncertainty, there lies an opportunity to shift our perspective and turn the tables on bad news. Renowned psychologist and author, Martin Seligman, once said, "Learned helplessness is the giving-up reaction that follows from the belief that whatever you do doesn't matter." These words ring true in the face of adversity. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's essential to recognize that our mindset plays a significant role in how we perceive and respond to bad news. By reframing our thoughts and beliefs, we can empower ourselves to overcome challenges and find the silver linings in any situation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn the tables on bad news! Psychologist Carol S. Dweck, known for her research on the growth mindset, emphasizes the importance of cultivating a resilient attitude toward setbacks. She states, "The view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life." This notion highlights the transformative power of mindset in shaping our responses to adversity. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Don't let the chaos of the world bury the blessings that are right in front of you." This powerful reminder serves as a beacon of hope in times of darkness. By acknowledging the blessings amidst the storm, we can find strength and courage to navigate life's challenges. As you navigate the ups and downs of life, it's crucial to remember that bad news does not define us. "Your setback is an opportunity for a comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing a positive mindset and focusing on gratitude, you can turn the tables on bad news and pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.

Why not stay true to who you are becoming and define success for yourself? Because defining success in terms of taking care of our bodies is a deeply personal journey. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    With many diets, exercise regimens, and well-meaning opinions from experts, the path to health and fitness can seem overwhelmingly complex. However, true success lies in tailoring our lifestyle choices to suit our individual needs and goals. Renowned health professionals stress the importance of customization when it comes to achieving optimal health. As Dr. Mark Hyman, a New York Times bestselling author and physician, aptly puts it, "There is no one-size-fits-all approach to health. Each person is unique, requiring a personalized plan." This sentiment underscores the significance of self-discovery and individualized strategies in the pursuit of wellness. So, how can one navigate this sea of information and determine what truly works best for them? The K.I.S.S. ~ Define success for yourself! Here are three essential steps to help define success in your personal health journey: 1. Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to how different foods make you feel, observe the impact of various workout routines on your energy levels, and prioritize activities that promote mental well-being. Your body holds valuable insights that can guide you toward choices that align with your goals. 2. Set Realistic Goals: Establish clear and achievable objectives that are tailored to your preferences and lifestyle. Avoid comparing yourself to others and focus on incremental progress that is sustainable in the long run. As fitness expert Jillian Michaels advises, "Your goals should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound to ensure success." 3. Embrace Consistency Over Perfection: Consistent effort over time yields lasting results, whereas striving for perfection can lead to burnout and frustration. Find a balance that allows for flexibility and enjoyment in your health pursuits. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Success is not about perfection, but about progress and persistence." Ultimately, defining success for yourself in the realm of healthy living involves honoring your individuality, staying attuned to your body's signals, and adopting a balanced and sustainable approach. By embracing this personalized journey, you can create a lifestyle that nurtures your well-being and empowers you to thrive.   "Be present. Be incredible.

As we navigate the responsibilities and pressures of adulthood, reintegrating play into our daily lives can have transformative effects on our outlook, mindset, thoughts, and actions.

How would it feel to be a carefree child with the freedom to live? To learn to play again, consider these three practical strategies: 1. Schedule Unstructured Time: Set aside dedicated periods each day for free play without any specific goals or agendas. This could involve engaging in activities like drawing, playing with puzzles, or simply allowing yourself to daydream. Unstructured play encourages creativity and fosters a sense of exploration. 2. Embrace Playful Movement: Explore physical activities that bring out your inner child, such as dancing, hula hooping, or jumping on a trampoline. Physical play not only helps to release endorphins but also improves coordination and flexibility. Remember, it's not about perfection but about embracing the joy of movement. 3. Engage in Social Play: Organize game nights with friends, join a recreational sports team, or participate in community events that involve cooperative play. Social play promotes bonding, communication skills, and a sense of camaraderie that can positively impact your relationships and mental well-being. "Play is not just for children; it is the elixir of youth that nourishes our souls and rejuvenates our spirits." ~ Kristianne Wargo Ultimately, embracing playtime as adults is not just a luxury but a necessity for leading fulfilling and balanced lives.

However, how couples manage different and diverse perspectives in marriage can make all the difference in maintaining a strong and healthy relationship. Rather than placing blame on their spouse, each spouse can take proactive steps to manage themselves and foster understanding and compromise within the marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Then, you have to consider that when couples constantly hound each other on what they believe is right without looking at their spouse's position or opinion, it can lead to a breakdown in communication and trust within the marriage.  This behavior often stems from a place of ego and a desire to be seen as right or superior, rather than valuing the perspectives and feelings of their partner. This dynamic creates a power struggle within the relationship, where each person is more focused on proving their own point rather than understanding and respecting the other's viewpoint. Furthermore, when couples engage in constant hounding and dismissiveness towards their partner's opinions, it can create a toxic environment of resentment and frustration. Over time, this can erode the emotional connection between spouses, leading to feelings of alienation and isolation within the marriage.  It becomes challenging to build a foundation of mutual respect and support when one or both partners are unwilling to listen and consider each other's perspectives. Additionally, whether you're hounding or harassing or just choosing to be difficult, these cycles of wanting to be right can escalate conflicts and disagreements, turning small issues into larger, more contentious battles. This can create a pattern of communication breakdowns and emotional distance, making it difficult for couples to find common ground and work together as a team. Without open and respectful communication, couples may struggle to navigate challenges and differences in a healthy and constructive way, ultimately putting their marriage at risk. If you want to avoid falling into the trap of being a hound dog, which can be detrimental to your marriage, then you want to step up your game. The K.I.S.S. ~ Step up your game! It is essential for couples to practice empathy, active listening, and mutual respect in order to foster a harmonious and supportive relationship built on understanding and cooperation. 1. Consciousness vs. Carelessness Firstly, consciousness refers to being aware of one's thoughts, feelings, and surroundings, like being self-aware. Individuals can better control their reactions during conflicts by recognizing and understanding their triggers and emotional responses. Who wants to be careless? Your lack of attention, awareness, or concern is not going to win you any brownie points. Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, John Gottman, emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, stating, "Taking responsibility for our own emotional reactions can significantly impact how we navigate disagreements with our partners." But again, you have to be willing to look at yourself and engage in self-examination. And that consciousness is going to take the energy of a full-time job. So prepare your mind for the hard work ahead. 2. Compassion vs. Callousness Secondly, cultivating empathy towards their spouse's point of view is crucial. Hello, compassion! Empathy lets you see things from your spouse's perspective, fostering understanding and connection. Research by psychologist Sara Konrath supports this, highlighting that empathy is essential for building strong and meaningful relationships. As Kristianne Wargo, a relationship coach, wisely states, "Empathy is the bridge that connects differences in marriage and paves the way for mutual understanding." And if you want to bat a thousand, then continue your callousness—the lack of compassion, empathy, or sensitivity towards others, which indicates a cold and indifferent attitude that contrasts with the warmth and understanding associated with compassion. 3. Collaborate vs. Compete Lastly, adopting a collaborative mindset is key. Instead of viewing conflicts as a battle to be won, approaching disagreements as opportunities for growth and compromise can lead to more constructive resolutions. Marriage researcher Dr. Sue Johnson affirms this approach, emphasizing that collaboration and teamwork are vital for resolving conflicts in a marriage. Otherwise, you will find yourself keeping score, and then it will be a win-or-lose event every time you come together. Who really wants to play in the Super Bowl every day? Managing differences and diverse perspectives in marriage requires a proactive and introspective approach. By practicing consciousness (self-awareness), compassion (empathy), and collaboration (better together), you'll be able to navigate conflicts with grace and understanding, strengthening your bond with your spouse.

However, how couples manage different and diverse perspectives in marriage can make all the difference in maintaining a strong and healthy relationship. Rather than placing blame on their spouse, each spouse can take proactive steps to manage themselves and foster understanding and compromise within the marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Then, you have to consider that when couples constantly hound each other on what they believe is right without looking at their spouse's position or opinion, it can lead to a breakdown in communication and trust within the marriage.  This behavior often stems from a place of ego and a desire to be seen as right or superior, rather than valuing the perspectives and feelings of their partner. This dynamic creates a power struggle within the relationship, where each person is more focused on proving their own point rather than understanding and respecting the other's viewpoint. Furthermore, when couples engage in constant hounding and dismissiveness towards their partner's opinions, it can create a toxic environment of resentment and frustration. Over time, this can erode the emotional connection between spouses, leading to feelings of alienation and isolation within the marriage.  It becomes challenging to build a foundation of mutual respect and support when one or both partners are unwilling to listen and consider each other's perspectives. Additionally, whether you're hounding or harassing or just choosing to be difficult, these cycles of wanting to be right can escalate conflicts and disagreements, turning small issues into larger, more contentious battles. This can create a pattern of communication breakdowns and emotional distance, making it difficult for couples to find common ground and work together as a team. Without open and respectful communication, couples may struggle to navigate challenges and differences in a healthy and constructive way, ultimately putting their marriage at risk. If you want to avoid falling into the trap of being a hound dog, which can be detrimental to your marriage, then you want to step up your game. The K.I.S.S. ~ Step up your game! It is essential for couples to practice empathy, active listening, and mutual respect in order to foster a harmonious and supportive relationship built on understanding and cooperation. 1. Consciousness vs. Carelessness Firstly, consciousness refers to being aware of one's thoughts, feelings, and surroundings, like being self-aware. Individuals can better control their reactions during conflicts by recognizing and understanding their triggers and emotional responses. Who wants to be careless? Your lack of attention, awareness, or concern is not going to win you any brownie points. Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, John Gottman, emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, stating, "Taking responsibility for our own emotional reactions can significantly impact how we navigate disagreements with our partners." But again, you have to be willing to look at yourself and engage in self-examination. And that consciousness is going to take the energy of a full-time job. So prepare your mind for the hard work ahead. 2. Compassion vs. Callousness Secondly, cultivating empathy towards their spouse's point of view is crucial. Hello, compassion! Empathy lets you see things from your spouse's perspective, fostering understanding and connection. Research by psychologist Sara Konrath supports this, highlighting that empathy is essential for building strong and meaningful relationships. As Kristianne Wargo, a relationship coach, wisely states, "Empathy is the bridge that connects differences in marriage and paves the way...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>879</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,conflicts,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,intimacy,joy,leadership,love,mindset,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/1d3688ecb19c5b8811c1fd9bf2192721.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3365 Do Worst-Case Scenarios Serve A Purpose For Parents?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3365-do-worst-case-scenarios-serve-a-purpose-for-parents--59434037</link><description><![CDATA[Parenting is a rollercoaster ride, one with unexpected twists, turns, and loop-de-loops. Keeping it real– Parenting is hard. However, in the midst of it all, do worst-case scenarios serve a purpose for parents? As parents, we often find ourselves teetering on the edge of worst-case scenarios, contemplating the what-ifs and how-tos of numerous situations. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But do these dire thoughts truly serve a purpose in guiding our parental instincts, or do they merely add unnecessary stress to an already demanding role? In the chaotic world of parenting, optimism and pessimism often collide, each offering its own unique perspective on handling challenging situations.  Do we focus on the bright side, ignoring potential pitfalls? Or do we prepare for the worst, readying ourselves for any adversity that may come our way?  The answer may not be clear-cut, as every parent navigates the parenting journey in their own unique way. When faced with a potential worst-case scenario, parents can benefit from adopting a balanced approach to ensure their well-being and sanity remain intact.  Yet, it takes a deliberate and conscious effort to distinctly know what you are looking at in regard to the situation your child is facing.  If you want to make sure you don't lose yourself in fear and anxiety, consider playing the optimistic game of reality. The K.I.S.S. ~ Play the optimistic game of reality! What are some situations you've experienced where you have found yourself spinning out of control in your mind? <ul> <li>Constantly failing</li> <li>Getting into trouble</li> <li>Language used</li> <li>Friends or lack of friends</li> <li>Social media addiction</li> <li>Other addictions</li> <li>Withdrawal</li> </ul> Through the lifetime of your parenting, you might encounter a few of these: <ul> <li>Sleepless nights and establishing routines</li> <li>Dealing with tantrums and behavioral issues</li> <li>Navigating school transitions and academic challenges- Managing sibling rivalry and conflicts</li> <li>Addressing emotional and mental health concerns</li> <li>Handling peer pressure and social dynamics</li> <li>Promoting healthy habits and balanced nutrition</li> <li>Supporting special needs and individual differences</li> <li>Coping with separation anxiety and attachment</li> <li>Balancing work and family responsibilities</li> <li>Teaching values and instilling discipline</li> <li>Guiding through adolescence and identity formation</li> <li>Preparing for milestone events and transitions</li> <li>Handling emergencies and unexpected crises</li> <li>Cultivating independence and life skills</li> <li>Fostering open communication and trust</li> <li>Encouraging creativity and exploration</li> <li>Addressing financial constraints and planning for the future</li> </ul> Here are three strategies to help parents view worst-case scenarios as hypothetical without succumbing to overwhelming fear and anxiety: 1. Acknowledge the possibility without fixating on it: Recognize the worst-case scenario as a potential outcome, but do not let it consume your thoughts. By acknowledging its existence without dwelling on it excessively, you can maintain a realistic perspective while focusing on practical solutions. 2. Seek support from trusted sources: Talk to other parents, seek advice from professionals, or join parenting groups to gain insight and perspective on challenging situations. Sharing your concerns with others can provide reassurance and valuable guidance when navigating uncertain territory. 3. Practice self-care and mindfulness: Amidst the chaos of parenting, remember you can't lose yourself if all of what's happening. And that means you need to prioritize your well-being. Engage in activities that bring you joy, practice mindfulness techniques to stay present, and seek moments of relaxation to recharge your energy. Taking care of yourself empowers you to face potential worst-case scenarios with a clear and focused mind. Also, make sure you eat, sleep, and hydrate well during tough times (and good times, too). In a study conducted by the Journal of Child and Family Studies, researchers found that parents who maintained a balanced perspective on worst-case scenarios exhibited lower levels of stress and anxiety compared to those who fixated on negative outcomes. By approaching challenging situations with a realistic yet optimistic mindset, parents can effectively navigate the ups and downs of parenting while safeguarding their mental health. As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "In the realm of parenting, worst-case scenarios are merely hypothetical detours on the road to knowing and understanding the present truth." Embracing the uncertainties of parenthood with an open heart and a rational mind allows us to weather any storm that comes our way, emerging stronger and more resilient on the other side.

Embrace the symphony of your life, for it is in embracing the lows that you truly appreciate the highs." ~ Kristianne Wargo When the sky seems gray and the winds howl, remind yourself that storms are temporary. The sun lurks behind the clouds, painting a masterpiece of hope and possibility. Keep your chin up, for brighter days are just around the corner. You are stronger than you know, and this storm shall pass, leaving you with a renewed sense of purpose and resilience. So, my friend, hold on to faith, raise your spirits high, and know that after every storm, the rainbow of possibilities awaits you.

The road may be rocky, but with each step forward, you are closer to the summit of your dreams. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo As Kristianne Wargo wisely puts it, "In the dance of life, even the missteps add rhythm to our soul." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Every stumble, every fall, every tear shed is a part of your unique melody. Embrace the symphony of your life, for it is in embracing the lows that you truly appreciate the highs." ~ Kristianne Wargo When the sky seems gray and the winds howl, remind yourself that storms are temporary. The sun lurks behind the clouds, painting a masterpiece of hope and possibility. Keep your chin up, for brighter days are just around the corner. You are stronger than you know, and this storm shall pass, leaving you with a renewed sense of purpose and resilience. So, my friend, hold on to faith, raise your spirits high, and know that after every storm, the rainbow of possibilities awaits you. Let the rain cleanse your spirit, let the thunder awaken your courage, and let the winds carry you towards the sunshine of a brand new day. Stay strong, stay hopeful, and remember, this too shall pass.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What do you do if striving for balance is not working for you? For most people, it's fun to talk at the cooler about how great life is and how well put together they are. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But are they really? Is living a balanced life a real thing or a myth? For some, it seems like it's working. But for others, they get lost in the mess of life and don't even know if it's real or not simply because of a lack of time. Tim Grover, a renowned coach who has worked with legendary athletes like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, boldly claims, "Athletes like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant didn't achieve unparalleled success by striving for balance. They understood that excellence requires an unrelenting focus and dedication that goes beyond what is considered balanced." That's where the water gets a little murky. You have to know the definition of what you define as balanced. What does that even mean? Unfortunately, life is not about balance. It's more about how you ebb and flow in your life. The key here lies in embracing the concept of harmony rather than balance. Achieving a life that serves you well doesn’t necessarily mean achieving perfect balance in every aspect. It's about your presence in each moment and where your focus is in that moment. So if balance is what you think you are wanting, consider discovering the world of presence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be present! Here are three actionable steps to help you live a fulfilled life that aligns with your values and priorities, even if it’s not perfectly balanced. It's all about harmony and your presence. 1. Prioritize Self-Care Over Perfection Rather than chasing after the elusive ideal of balance, focus on prioritizing self-care and self-compassion. Take the time to assess your needs and boundaries, and don’t be afraid to say no to things that drain your energy. Remember, self-care isn’t selfish; it’s essential for your overall well-being. As Tim Grover aptly puts it, "Avoid the trap of living on autopilot and instead take charge of your destiny. Kobe, like all true champions, understood that living a life on purpose requires intentional choices and a relentless commitment to excellence." 2. Embrace Flexibility and Adaptability In a world that is constantly changing and evolving, rigidly adhering to a strict notion of balance can lead to frustration and burnout. Instead, cultivate a mindset of flexibility and adaptability. Allow yourself to ebb and flow with the natural rhythms of life, adjusting your priorities and commitments as needed. As Kristianne Wargo wisely states, "Life is a beautiful dance of highs and lows, twists and turns. Embrace the fluidity of your journey and remember that growth often occurs in moments of imbalance." 3. Cultivate Meaningful Connections and Community While the idea of balance may imply an equal distribution of time and energy across all areas of your life, true fulfillment often comes from nurturing meaningful relationships and connections. Invest in building a supportive community of friends, family, and mentors who uplift and inspire you. Tim Grover echoes this sentiment, saying, "Surround yourself with a team of mentors, supporters, and like-minded individuals who share your passion for living on purpose. Building a strong support system will fuel your motivation and drive you towards your goals, just as it did for Kobe." In conclusion, living a life that serves you well is not about achieving perfect balance in all areas, but rather about finding harmony and alignment with your values and priorities. Embrace self-care, flexibility, and meaningful connections, and remember that true fulfillment comes from honoring your unique journey, imperfections and all. "Balance works when you are present in your every day, giving yourself the opportunity to be flexible in every way." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Embrace the total eclipse of the heart. Yesterday, we witnessed the total solar eclipse, where the moon momentarily totally obscured the sun, casting a veil of darkness. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How much of our own lives are overshadowed by darkness, by self-doubt and negative thoughts that plague our minds? "I'm not enough."  "I'll never amount to anything." "Why me?" Do these phrases sound familiar? Do they hit too close to home, perhaps even bringing tears to your eyes? But amidst the darkness, we must remember – at the end of each eclipse, there is light. What is your light in the darkness? Who is your beacon of hope when all seems lost? As we search for answers, we must remember that even in the darkest moments, there is a glimmer of light waiting to break through. In the midst of cloudy skies and rain, I stood waiting for the solar eclipse to reveal itself. Despite the obstacles, when the time came, the clouds shifted, the wind intensified, and the rain fell harder. It was a reminder that even when we can't see the light, it is there, waiting to shine through. Just as the total solar eclipse was a celestial event beyond our control, so too is the transformation of our hearts not solely our doing, but a divine work. We long for a different life, a new self, a soul on fire – and that journey begins with a total eclipse of the heart. "Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." (Psalm 51:10) With faith and belief, we can invite God to provide that total eclipse of the heart, to shine His light into the darkest corners of our souls, reminding us that with Him, all things are possible. It's time to embrace the total eclipse of your heart and let the light in. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the total eclipse of the heart! In the cosmic ballet of sun and moon,<br /> A dance of shadows, a mystical tune.<br /> The solar eclipse, a celestial show,<br /> Revealing mysteries we may never know. Just as the moon cloaks the sun’s bright light,<br /> In life’s shadows, we find insight.<br />  For in every person, a story unfolds,<br />A tapestry of wonders waiting to be told. Like the eclipse unveils a hidden view,<br /> In each soul, there's magic too.<br /> A brilliance that shines, obscured at times,<br />  But waiting to burst through life's confines. Through the darkness, a glimmer shines,<br /> A spark of hope in troubled times.<br /> In every heart, a light does gleam,<br /> A beacon of strength, a radiant beam. So marvel at the eclipse, marvel at the sight,<br /> But remember, within you burns a light.<br /> A light that shines uniquely bright,<br /> Illuminating your path through day and night. As the universe aligns in perfect grace,<br /> Know that within you, greatness takes place.<br />  The solar eclipse a mirror to behold,<br />Reflecting the wonders within your soul.   "Be present.

What has got you moving differently? Has it been thinking more about what you're thinking about? Have you found yourself not really caring and still doing the same thing? Maybe you are trying to make changes, but flustered with the success up until now. Life is unfair. Yet life is beautiful. Life is full of joy, but it's also destructible. How can you go from one extreme to the other—from a win to a loss, a victory to a setback, or success to failure? If you want to see the wins and losses as equals, break the cycle! The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the cycle! A basketball player can draw valuable lessons from both wins and losses on the court, just as individuals can learn from success and setbacks in life. Here's how they compare: 1. Win - Celebrate and Learn: - In Basketball: Celebrate victories, acknowledge hard work and teamwork that led to success, and analyze what worked well to replicate in future games. - In Life: Similarly, celebrate personal achievements, recognize efforts that contributed to success, and extract lessons to apply to future endeavors. 2. Lose - Reflect and Improve: - In Basketball: Reflect on the reasons for the loss, identify areas of improvement, learn from mistakes, and use the defeat as motivation to train harder for the next game. - In Life: Reflect on failures, analyze what went wrong, identify opportunities for growth and self-improvement, and use setbacks as a comeback—stepping stones towards future success. 3. Humbling Experiences (Humility): - In Basketball: A loss can humble a player, reminding them of the importance of resilience, perseverance, and continuous self-improvement to bounce back stronger. - In Life: Adversity in life similarly serves as a humbling experience, fostering resilience, empathy, and a growth mindset to navigate through challenges with grit and determination. 4. Character Building: - In Basketball: Wins and losses mold a player's character, shaping attributes like sportsmanship, leadership, and mental toughness that are essential on and off the court. - In Life: Successes and failures contribute to personal growth, fortifying characteristics such as resilience, adaptability, and determination that are vital for navigating life's highs and lows. 5. Perseverance and Resilience: - In Basketball: Facing ups and downs in games instills perseverance and resilience in players, teaching them to push through challenges and setbacks with unwavering determination. - In Life: Overcoming obstacles builds a foundation of resilience, teaching individuals to stay strong, adapt, and persist in the face of adversity to achieve their goals and aspirations. Whether you're playing on the court or dribbling between your items on the to-do list, you can cultivate a mindset of continuous growth, adaptability, and determination in pursuing personal and professional success.

As we navigate the complexities of daily living, be sure you have the heart of faithful living. It's essential to explore the ways in which we can honor God through our obedience. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Most of the time, we are doing our own thing, fighting our own battles with our to-do lists.  And how far has that gotten you? When you look at scripture, it is full of guidance on obedience, emphasizing its importance in our relationship with God. John 14:15 ~ "If you love me, keep my commands." This clear directive from Jesus underscores the connection between our love for God and our obedience to His word, which is to Him! Obeying God involves more than just following a set of rules; it requires a heart fully surrendered to His guidance. 1 Samuel 15:22 ~ "To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams." This passage highlights the significance of our obedience as an expression of our deep-seated faith and devotion to God. The K.I.S.S. ~ The heart of faithful living! Practicing obedience means aligning your will with God's divine plan, even when it contradicts your desires or understanding. Proverbs 3:6 urges us to "in all your ways acknowledge Him," emphasizing the importance of trusting God's wisdom and guidance in every aspect of our lives. Walking in obedience is a continual journey of faith, requiring humility, perseverance, and a willingness to surrender our own desires for the sake of God's greater purpose. 1 John 5:3 ~ "In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome." This reassures us that obedience stems from a heart filled with love and reverence for God, making His commands a joy to follow. In the tapestry of our faith, obedience forms the thread that weaves our lives into a beautiful testimony of God's grace and guidance. As believers, our obedience is not a rigid adherence to rules but a vibrant expression of our love for the One who first loved us. Let our actions, our words, and our choices be a symphony of obedience to the God who calls us His own. So, let us approach obedience with humility, reverence, and gratitude, allowing it to shape our character and draw us closer to the heart of our Heavenly Father. May our lives be a living testimony of obedience, reflecting the transformative power of faith in action.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How do you handle jealousy in your marriage? While jealousy is a common experience in relationships, couples can conquer this challenge through empathy, effective communication, and a willingness to understand each other's needs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Leslie Vernick, a renowned marriage counselor, emphasizes the importance of addressing jealousy in a healthy way. She says, "Jealousy in a marriage stems from insecurities and unmet needs. It's crucial to communicate openly and empathetically to build trust and mutual understanding." Have you ever experienced jealousy in your marriage? Sometimes jealousy rears its head in unexpected ways, such as feeling envious of the attention your spouse gives to others or even to your children.  If you want to get to the bottom of jealousy, ask curious questions. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ask curious questions! When you want to be curious, then it's going to take courage to say something.  There is a link between the words "curious" and "courage." Both words stem from the Latin word "cor," which means heart. "Curious" originally meant eager to know, and it can take courage to delve into the unknown or to seek answers to questions. Similarly, "courage" refers to the ability to face difficulties and challenges with bravery, which often requires a curious and open mindset to explore new possibilities and overcome fears. In essence, curiosity can fuel the courage needed to step into the unknown and grow personally and professionally. To handle jealousy effectively, consider the following strategies: 1. Communicate openly and honestly: You can do this by asking questions that put things in perspective. Expressing your feelings of jealousy to your partner can help them understand your perspective. Talk about your insecurities and fears in a non-confrontational manner to foster a supportive environment for mutual growth and understanding. 2. Establish boundaries and reassurance: Setting clear boundaries in your marriage can help alleviate jealousy triggers. Reassure your spouse of your commitment and love regularly, reinforcing the emotional connection and trust between you both. Come at it with an empathetic ear. This will open the possibility of your spouse hearing what is happening. Be compassionate and kind for your spouse's  3. Self-reflect to check where you are: If jealousy in your marriage becomes overwhelming or leads to constant conflicts, don't hesitate to seek support from a counselor or therapist. Professional guidance can offer valuable insights and tools to navigate through challenging emotions. You can get support with groups, journaling, coach, therapist. This will give you the opportunity to self-reflect and a place to land when you are trying to figure things out. Kristianne Wargo aptly points out, "Jealousy can make one feel like an object, rather than a cherished partner. Addressing it promptly and constructively is essential to nurture a healthy, loving relationship." Remember, a sprinkle of jealousy is normal in relationships, but when left unchecked, it can turn toxic. By fostering open communication, setting boundaries, and seeking assistance when needed, couples can strengthen their bond and conquer jealousy together.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How do you handle jealousy in your marriage? While jealousy is a common experience in relationships, couples can conquer this challenge through empathy, effective communication, and a willingness to understand each other's needs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Leslie Vernick, a renowned marriage counselor, emphasizes the importance of addressing jealousy in a healthy way. She says, "Jealousy in a marriage stems from insecurities and unmet needs. It's crucial to communicate openly and empathetically to build trust and mutual understanding." Have you ever experienced jealousy in your marriage? Sometimes jealousy rears its head in unexpected ways, such as feeling envious of the attention your spouse gives to others or even to your children.  If you want to get to the bottom of jealousy, ask curious questions. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ask curious questions! When you want to be curious, then it's going to take courage to say something.  There is a link between the words "curious" and "courage." Both words stem from the Latin word "cor," which means heart. "Curious" originally meant eager to know, and it can take courage to delve into the unknown or to seek answers to questions. Similarly, "courage" refers to the ability to face difficulties and challenges with bravery, which often requires a curious and open mindset to explore new possibilities and overcome fears. In essence, curiosity can fuel the courage needed to step into the unknown and grow personally and professionally. To handle jealousy effectively, consider the following strategies: 1. Communicate openly and honestly: You can do this by asking questions that put things in perspective. Expressing your feelings of jealousy to your partner can help them understand your perspective. Talk about your insecurities and fears in a non-confrontational manner to foster a supportive environment for mutual growth and understanding. 2. Establish boundaries and reassurance: Setting clear boundaries in your marriage can help alleviate jealousy triggers. Reassure your spouse of your commitment and love regularly, reinforcing the emotional connection and trust between you both. Come at it with an empathetic ear. This will open the possibility of your spouse hearing what is happening. Be compassionate and kind for your spouse's  3. Self-reflect to check where you are: If jealousy in your marriage becomes overwhelming or leads to constant conflicts, don't hesitate to seek support from a counselor or therapist. Professional guidance can offer valuable insights and tools to navigate through challenging emotions. You can get support with groups, journaling, coach, therapist. This will give you the opportunity to self-reflect and a place to land when you are trying to figure things out. Kristianne Wargo aptly points out, "Jealousy can make one feel like an object, rather than a cherished partner. Addressing it promptly and constructively is essential to nurture a healthy, loving relationship." Remember, a sprinkle of jealousy is normal in relationships, but when left unchecked, it can turn toxic. By fostering open communication, setting boundaries, and seeking assistance when needed, couples can strengthen their bond and conquer jealousy together.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Between work demands, school schedules, extracurricular activities, and personal commitments, you must check the chaos at the door. Because, with a little intentionality and some strategic planning, it is possible to create a harmonious family dynamic where everyone finds their space in the middle of competing demands.

Are things calm, or is it more of a roller coaster of feelings with everyone walking on eggshells? The K.I.S.S. ~ Check the chaos at the door! Balancing competing demands and finding harmony as a family can be challenging, but here are some strategies to help: 1. Establish Priorities: Identify what matters most to your family and allocate time and attention accordingly. As author Stephen Covey once said, "The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities." 2. Set Boundaries: Establish boundaries for work, school, and personal time to ensure each family member gets the attention they need.  3. Communicate Openly: Regular family meetings can help address concerns, share schedules, and ensure everyone's needs are considered. Family therapist Virginia Satir remarked, "We need 4 hugs a day for survival. We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. We need 12 hugs a day for growth." 4. Quality Time: Make the most of your time together by engaging in meaningful activities and creating lasting memories. Dr. Seuss poignantly captured the essence of quality time with family, "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." 5. Self-Care: Encourage each family member to prioritize self-care activities that rejuvenate and re-energize them.  You know how the flight attendant says, "Put on your oxygen mask first before assisting others." Taking care of yourself allows you to better care for your loved ones. 6. Delegate Responsibility: Distribute household chores and responsibilities among family members to lighten the load and promote teamwork. 7. Tech-Free Time: Designate periods without screens to focus on connecting and bonding as a family without distractions. 8. Flexibility: Be adaptable and willing to adjust schedules and plans as needed to accommodate unforeseen circumstances or individual needs. American film producer, screenwriter, and actor Michael Arndt noted, "Be so good they can't ignore you." Adaptability in the face of change helps to maintain equilibrium within the family. 9. Support System: Lean on extended family, friends, or support groups for assistance and guidance during busy or challenging times. Renowned educator and author Maria Montessori emphasized the importance of community support, "The greatest sign of success for a teacher... is to be able to say, 'The children are now working as if I did not exist.'" 10. Celebrate Achievements: Acknowledge and celebrate each other’s accomplishments, no matter how big or small, to foster a positive and supportive family dynamic. In the intricate tapestry of family dynamics, each thread plays a crucial role in weaving together a harmonious and colorful life. Remember, finding your calm center amidst the chaos is not about achieving perfection, it's not about things being all in there place and everyone happy. But more about embracing the journey and the growth that comes with it. When you are part of a family, you will be changed.  So check the chaos at the door and invite harmony to take its place in the heart of your family.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Spring is the perfect time to refresh your eating habits and incorporate seasonal produce that supports overall health and well-being. Spring clean your diet. This allows you to embrace the flavors of spring, not only to improve your nutrition, but also to add variety and freshness to your meals.

Chef Jamie Lee shares, "Spring is a time for renewal, and what better way to rejuvenate your body than with the vibrant flavors of seasonal produce." The K.I.S.S. ~ Spring clean your diet! Here are some tips on how to spring clean your diet, eat to the season, save money, and a delicious recipe to enjoy guilt-free. 1. Incorporate Seasonal Produce: Opt for fresh fruits and vegetables that are in season during spring, such as strawberries, asparagus, leafy greens, and peas. These nutrient-dense foods not only provide essential vitamins and minerals but also add variety and freshness to your meals. Nutritionist Sarah Smith emphasizes, "Eating seasonal foods not only supports your overall health but also helps the environment by reducing food miles and supporting local farmers." Eating to the Season: - Choose seasonal fruits and vegetables like strawberries, asparagus, arugula, and peas. - Incorporate fresh herbs like mint, basil, and cilantro for added flavor. - Opt for lighter meals with salads, smoothies, and grilled dishes to align with the brighter days and warmer weather. 2. Meal Prep and Plan Ahead: Spend some time planning your meals for the week, including snacks and lunches. By prepping ingredients and having healthy meals ready to go, you can avoid making impulsive, less nutritious food choices. This will also help reduce food waste and save time during busy weekdays. Saving Money While Eating Healthy: - Shop at local farmer's markets for fresh, affordable produce. - Buy in bulk and freeze or preserve seasonal fruits and veggies for later use. - Plan meals ahead to avoid food waste and unnecessary spending. 3. Hydrate with Infused Water: Stay hydrated by infusing your water with fresh fruits, herbs, and vegetables like sliced cucumbers, mint leaves, or berries. This adds natural flavor without extra sugars or calories, making it a refreshing and healthier alternative to sugary beverages. Proper hydration is essential for overall well-being and supports a healthy metabolism. **Spring Recipe: Lemon Berry Chia Pudding** - Ingredients: <ul> <li>1/4 cup chia seeds </li> <li>1 cup almond milk</li> <li>1 tsp lemon zest</li> <li>Mixed berries for topping</li> </ul> - Directions: 1. In a bowl, mix chia seeds, almond milk, and lemon zest. Stir well and let it sit in the fridge overnight. 2. Top with fresh mixed berries before serving.

Let your food choices reflect this renewal, nourishing your body with foods that empower your health and well-being." ~ Kristianne Wargo Spring clean your diet this season, embrace the bounties of nature, and savor the flavors of fresh, healthy eating.

Break away from the past. A quarter of our year is gone. Many of us find ourselves longing for something more, something different than the familiar tunes and routines that have defined the first few months. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We've got that stirring within us. That desire beckoning us to explore uncharted territories and break away from the past. Transitioning from the comfort of what you know to the uncertainty of what could be is a journey fraught with both trepidation and excitement.  As author C. JoyBell C. once said, "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you."  This untold story, this yearning for something different, is a whisper from your soul, the nudge in your gut, urging you to step out of your comfort zone and embrace the unknown. It is in these moments of reflection that you find the courage to take a leap of faith, to pursue a path that may be unconventional yet ultimately fulfilling.  As Kristianne Wargo wisely puts it, "Embrace the unknown, for it is in the journey towards the unfamiliar that we discover our true selves."  Embracing change, even when it appears daunting and overwhelming, opens doors to new possibilities and opportunities you may have never considered before. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break away from the past! To inspire oneself to move in a different direction requires a deep sense of self-awareness and a willingness to let go of preconceived notions of what our lives should look like. And a lot of that comes from our past.  If we are going to elevate where we are headed, then it demands that we listen to the whispers of our hearts and trust in our intuition to guide us toward the path we are meant to tread. Who you are becoming. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!! "This isn't about living in the past. This is being present in the presence of today to create your now." ~ Kristianne Wargo The only constant in life is change. Embracing change is not about erasing the past, but about acknowledging its presence while paving the way for a brighter, more fulfilling future.  What would happen if you honored yourself by breaking away from the past, meaning letting it go, and moving into what is happening in the NOW?  In the midst of uncertainty, remember these words of wisdom from American poet Robert Frost: "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I – I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." Choosing to forge a new path, to embrace the unfamiliar, may be intimidating, but it is in this boldness that you find freedom and truth. You get to become who you are becoming! As you stand at the crossroads of familiarity and change, remember that the journey toward something different is not just about reaching a destination but about the transformation that occurs along the way. What's old may indeed become new again, but it is in the exploration of the uncharted that we discover the depth of your greatness.

How you handle your emotions will determine where your thoughts go. Slam dunk your thoughts by controlling your emotions. Emotional regulation is a real thing. <a href="https://mb345.infusionsoft.app/app/form/request-thought-madness-bracket-podcast" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Thought Madness Bracket:</a><a href="https://mb345.infusionsoft.app/app/form/request-thought-madness-bracket-podcast" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Click here to get your bracket!</a> Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

And you wonder why you find yourself where you are. We've been going through this "Thought Madness" in conjunction with March Madness. There are so many plot twists as to who makes it to the Sweet 16, Elite 8, and the Final Four.  But now we know-- UConn, Alabama, Purdue, and NC State. If you watched any of those Elite 8 games, at times, the opponent was ahead of the ones who actually moved on to the Final Four. But the difference maker in the games was their thoughts.  Their thoughts had to get them to the other side of the points being less than and thinking they were more than. At one point in the game between Duke and NC State, Burns (the NC State player) was seen dancing during a review. He present in what he was doing. He didn't lose control when everything seemed out of his control. He struck HIS beat and danced until the next step. How are you regulating your emotions so you can manage your thoughts? Because when you are facing the full-court press of overwhelming emotions, just like in basketball, you have got to slam dunk those unruly thoughts and emotions together! The K.I.S.S. ~ Slam dunk those unruly thoughts and emotions together! That means you control what you control.  Don't let the excuses that you can't do something or change something. You control YOU!!! So step up to the free throw line, and hit the shot! Be deliberate. Be present. Be incredible. Be who you are becoming! 1. Awareness: Emotional regulation begins with self-awareness, acknowledging and understanding your emotions and their triggers. By recognizing how you feel, you can identify potential emotional responses. 2. Identify: Once you are aware of your emotions, you can identify whether they are helping or hindering your thoughts. This step involves labeling your emotions and understanding their impact on your thoughts and actions. 3. Evaluation: Emotional regulation requires evaluating the intensity of your emotions and deciding on an appropriate response. This involves considering the context of the situation and the potential consequences of different reactions. 4. Response: Effective emotional regulation involves choosing a response that aligns with your goals and values rather than reacting impulsively. This may involve techniques such as deep breathing, positive self-talk, or taking a moment to pause and reflect. 5. Adapt: Emotional regulation also involves adapting your responses based on feedback and outcomes. If a particular response proves ineffective, you can adjust your approach and learn from your experiences. 6. Practice: Like any skill, emotional regulation improves with practice. By consistently practicing techniques to manage your emotions, you can enhance your ability to regulate your feelings and navigate challenging situations effectively. Overall, emotional regulation empowers you to maintain composure, make informed decisions, foster positive relationships, and cope with stress more effectively, and have thoughts that serve you well in your every day.

And you wonder why you find yourself where you are. We've been going through this "Thought Madness" in conjunction with March Madness. There are so many plot twists as to who makes it to the Sweet 16, Elite 8, and the Final Four.  But now we know-- UConn, Alabama, Purdue, and NC State. If you watched any of those Elite 8 games, at times, the opponent was ahead of the ones who actually moved on to the Final Four. But the difference maker in the games was their thoughts.  Their thoughts had to get them to the other side of the points being less than and thinking they were more than. At one point in the game between Duke and NC State, Burns (the NC State player) was seen dancing during a review. He present in what he was doing. He didn't lose control when everything seemed out of his control. He struck HIS beat and danced until the next step. How are you regulating your emotions so you can manage your thoughts? Because when you are facing the full-court press of overwhelming emotions, just like in basketball, you have got to slam dunk those unruly thoughts and emotions together! The K.I.S.S. ~ Slam dunk those unruly thoughts and emotions together! That means you control what you control.  Don't let the excuses that you can't do something or change something. You control YOU!!! So step up to the free throw line, and hit the shot! Be deliberate. Be present. Be incredible. Be who you are becoming! 1. Awareness: Emotional regulation begins with self-awareness, acknowledging and understanding your emotions and their triggers. By recognizing how you feel, you can identify potential emotional responses. 2. Identify: Once you are aware of your emotions, you can identify whether they are helping or hindering your thoughts. This step involves labeling your emotions and understanding their impact on your thoughts and actions. 3. Evaluation: Emotional regulation requires evaluating the intensity of your emotions and deciding on an appropriate response. This involves considering the context of the situation and the potential consequences of different reactions. 4. Response: Effective emotional regulation involves choosing a response that aligns with your goals and values rather than reacting impulsively. This may involve techniques such as deep breathing, positive self-talk, or taking a moment to pause and reflect. 5. Adapt: Emotional regulation also involves adapting your responses based on feedback and outcomes. If a particular response proves ineffective, you can adjust your approach and learn from your experiences. 6. Practice: Like any skill, emotional regulation improves with practice. By consistently practicing techniques to manage your emotions, you can enhance your ability to regulate your feelings and navigate challenging situations effectively.

The power of forgiveness is truly a transformative act that cultivates harmony.  If you use forgiveness in your marriage, it can strengthen bonds and mend wounds.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The act of forgiving not only heals wounds but also cultivates a deeper connection between a couple, fostering a sense of renewal and grace. It's this energy that keeps engaging the heart to expand wider and deeper.  As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "Forgiveness changes you! You can't forgive and not be changed yourself." When you are considering forgiveness, you must look at the resentment meter. Resentment is a complex emotion that arises from feelings of unfairness, bitterness, or anger towards someone, often stemming from past grievances or perceived injustices. It can slowly erode a marriage and create barriers to communication and emotional intimacy.  Letting go of resentment is crucial for healing and restoring harmony in marriage. And that's all in the process of forgiveness. "If you forgive, resentment can't be borrowed." ~ Kristianne Wargo You can't go to your heart and withdraw resentment. It won't exist because you forgave. Now, as you may know, this week is Holy Week. And today, we are in between the stage of the crucifixion and the resurrection. And so I want to take a more direct approach to challenge our thinking on how we can understand the depth of forgiveness and why it's so powerful in marriage. The concept of forgiveness in the context of Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross for our sins holds profound parallels to marriage and sacrificial love.  Just as Christ demonstrated the ultimate act of forgiveness and sacrificial love through His crucifixion and resurrection, couples can draw inspiration from His example to cultivate forgiveness and selfless love within their marital relationships. And if you are going to do this, you've gotta ready your heart God's way. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ready your heart God's Way! 1. Unconditional Love: Just as Jesus showed limitless love and forgiveness towards humanity by sacrificing Himself for our sins, you can aspire to embody a similar spirit of unconditional love in your marriage. Sacrificial love entails putting aside personal desires and ego-driven needs to prioritize the well-being and happiness of one's sweetheart. You can nurture a deep and enduring bond built on grace, compassion, and empathy by choosing to forgive readily and love sacrificially. 2. Redemption and Renewal: The resurrection of Jesus symbolizes the victory over sin and death, offering a path to redemption and spiritual renewal for all believers. In a marital context, forgiveness serves as a catalyst for redemption and transformation within the relationship. By extending forgiveness and seeking reconciliation, you both can experience a renewal of trust, harmony, and intimacy, allowing for growth and healing to take place. This process of renewal through forgiveness paves the way for a strengthened and revitalized marriage.  "Forgiveness changes you! You can't forgive and not be changed yourself." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Servant Leadership: Jesus didn't come to earth to be served, but to serve! He exemplified servant leadership through His acts of compassion, humility, and sacrifice, setting a model for believers to follow in their interactions with others. In marriage, practicing forgiveness and sacrificial love involves adopting a servant-hearted approach towards one's spouse. By seeking to serve rather than be served, spouses can create a culture of mutual respect, support, and understanding within their relationship. Can you imagine how different marriages would be if you married to serve instead of expecting to be served? Through acts of selflessness and forgiveness, you can emulate Christ's example of servant leadership and cultivate a harmonious and fulfilling marriage centered on sacrificial love. In essence, the power of forgiveness in the context of Jesus Christ's sacrifice and resurrection underscores the transformative impact of forgiveness, sacrificial love, and redemption in marriage. By drawing parallels between Christ's example of forgiveness and sacrificial love and applying these principles to your marriage, you, as a couple, can create a deep sense of compassion, grace, and unity, building a bond that reflects the divine love and forgiveness demonstrated through Christ's sacrifice on the cross.

The power of forgiveness is truly a transformative act that cultivates harmony.  If you use forgiveness in your marriage, it can strengthen bonds and mend wounds.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The act of forgiving not only heals wounds but also cultivates a deeper connection between a couple, fostering a sense of renewal and grace. It's this energy that keeps engaging the heart to expand wider and deeper.  As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "Forgiveness changes you! You can't forgive and not be changed yourself." When you are considering forgiveness, you must look at the resentment meter. Resentment is a complex emotion that arises from feelings of unfairness, bitterness, or anger towards someone, often stemming from past grievances or perceived injustices. It can slowly erode a marriage and create barriers to communication and emotional intimacy.  Letting go of resentment is crucial for healing and restoring harmony in marriage. And that's all in the process of forgiveness. "If you forgive, resentment can't be borrowed." ~ Kristianne Wargo You can't go to your heart and withdraw resentment. It won't exist because you forgave. Now, as you may know, this week is Holy Week. And today, we are in between the stage of the crucifixion and the resurrection. And so I want to take a more direct approach to challenge our thinking on how we can understand the depth of forgiveness and why it's so powerful in marriage. The concept of forgiveness in the context of Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross for our sins holds profound parallels to marriage and sacrificial love.  Just as Christ demonstrated the ultimate act of forgiveness and sacrificial love through His crucifixion and resurrection, couples can draw inspiration from His example to cultivate forgiveness and selfless love within their marital relationships. And if you are going to do this, you've gotta ready your heart God's way. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ready your heart God's Way! 1. Unconditional Love: Just as Jesus showed limitless love and forgiveness towards humanity by sacrificing Himself for our sins, you can aspire to embody a similar spirit of unconditional love in your marriage. Sacrificial love entails putting aside personal desires and ego-driven needs to prioritize the well-being and happiness of one's sweetheart. You can nurture a deep and enduring bond built on grace, compassion, and empathy by choosing to forgive readily and love sacrificially. 2. Redemption and Renewal: The resurrection of Jesus symbolizes the victory over sin and death, offering a path to redemption and spiritual renewal for all believers. In a marital context, forgiveness serves as a catalyst for redemption and transformation within the relationship. By extending forgiveness and seeking reconciliation, you both can experience a renewal of trust, harmony, and intimacy, allowing for growth and healing to take place. This process of renewal through forgiveness paves the way for a strengthened and revitalized marriage.  "Forgiveness changes you! You can't forgive and not be changed yourself." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Servant Leadership: Jesus didn't come to earth to be served, but to serve! He exemplified servant leadership through His acts of compassion, humility, and sacrifice, setting a model for believers to follow in their interactions with others. In marriage, practicing forgiveness and sacrificial love involves adopting a servant-hearted approach towards one's spouse. By seeking to serve rather than be served, spouses can create a culture of mutual respect, support, and understanding within their relationship.

However, change doesn't always appear beneficial on the surface. Don't get frustrated—frustration is not the enemy. Life doesn't have to be all crazy and chaotic. Yes, there are times when CRAP is thrown at you, and it's all you can do to stay afloat. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But don't jump ship! Don't let your feelings and emotions get the best of you. As you know, today is Good Friday. Good Friday signifies an end of what was of the world with the hope of sending His Son, Jesus Christ, who walked the earth and then was crucified on the cross for our sins so that we might be saved. I can only imagine what God saw when the world He created was in turmoil. What He created as beauty turned to ashes. Yet, God is God, and He made a way for good to shine through the bad.   Good Friday signifies an end to making way for new beginnings. a newfound hope.  You see, parenthood mirrors this cycle; you lose what was familiar to you, yet excited for the birth of something new.  Kids change you, and they change your reality.  Just as God's sending of His Son transformed the world, raising children transforms parents. How can we harness the frustrations that accompany change and the unknown adventure ahead, and put the emphasis on what is good and holy? You gotta focus on what is good and holy. The K.I.S.S. ~ Focus on what is good and holy! That's hard to do. You work hard, have long days, and then are expected to come home and raise your kids with smiles on your faces. As my grandson says to me, "I've had a hard day!" This is echoed with a long sigh. Where do you think he hears that? His dad and mom. It's imperative that we raise our kids with grace, not only for them but for ourselves. And being realistic in what we can do, and know we are doing it to the best of our ability. Focus on what is good and holy. How can you be the mama or dada who holds their child close with their heart in mind? 1. Practice Patience: In moments of frustration, choose patience. Understand that change takes time and that growth often comes from navigating challenges with resilience. Allow yourself grace in the process, recognizing that transformation is gradual. 2. Cultivate Gratitude: Amidst the chaos of parenting, pause to count your blessings. Gratitude shifts your focus from what you lack to what you have, fostering a mindset of abundance. By appreciating the small moments of joy, you magnify the beauty of life's journey. Don't always look at the ashes; see the beauty in the ashes. 3. Seek Support: Parenthood is a shared experience. Reach out to fellow parents, mentors, or faith communities for guidance and comfort. Building a support network equips you with the tools to navigate the complexities of raising children while fostering a sense of community. Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV): "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." "Life is beautiful. Life is hard. Life is manageable when you see the blessings in the messes." - Kristianne Wargo God gave that to us. As we journey through the ebb and flow of life, let us not view frustration as an obstacle but as an opportunity for growth. By embracing change with patience, gratitude, and support, you become a living legacy that transcends generations. Just as Good Friday heralded a new dawn, let us approach parenthood with a sense of purpose, knowing that our actions today shape the future for our children tomorrow.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You've heard about the importance of core muscles for a toned physique.  But did you know that a strong core can also improve your posture, decrease the risk of back pain, prevent injuries, and enhance your balance and stability?  It's time to rethink your approach to core workouts and discover effective exercises that don't require hitting the floor. You might as well R.I.S.E.! The K.I.S.S. ~ R.I.S.E.! Rise to the notation that you need to do the work to gain a strong core that will help you in everything you do. Your body matters. If you celebrate Holy Week, you know that your body is the temple of God. Don't take for granted what your body can do for you. Do something for your body so you can do what you were created to do. So, what are some alternative exercises that can help you achieve a strong core? 1. Resistance Band Workouts: Incorporating resistance bands into your workout routine can effectively target your core muscles while standing. Research from the Journal of Human Kinetics indicates that resistance band exercises not only engage core muscles but also improve muscular strength and endurance without the need for floor exercises (Source: Journal of Human Kinetics, Vol. 56, 2017). 2. Intentional Bodyweight Resistance Training: Performing bodyweight exercises like planks, mountain climbers, or standing leg raises can effectively engage your core muscles without the need to lay on the floor. A study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research reveals that bodyweight exercises can enhance core stability and strength, promoting functional fitness and overall health (Source: J Strength Cond Res. 2021 Sep 1;35(9):2421-2427). 3. Stability Ball Movements: Utilizing a stability ball can provide an unstable surface, forcing your core muscles to work harder to maintain balance and stability. Research from the International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy shows that incorporating stability ball exercises can help activate core muscles and improve core stability, making it a great alternative to traditional floor exercises (Source: Int J Sports Phys Ther. 2012 Dec; 7(6): 665–675). 4. Engage and Reach: This exercise involves standing upright and engaging your core muscles while reaching your arms overhead or to the side. By maintaining proper posture and engaging your core, you can effectively work on strengthening your abdominal muscles without the need to lay down on the floor. Kristianne Wargo says, "Building a strong core doesn't have to be a pain on the floor. Embrace innovative exercises that can help you achieve a toned midsection without ever needing a mat." By incorporating these alternative methods to strengthen your core, you can achieve a toned midsection and reap the benefits of improved posture, reduced back pain, enhanced stability, and injury prevention. Say goodbye to the conventional sit-ups and crunches and welcome a new era of core strengthening without hitting the floor!   "Be present. Be incredible.

You go from being on top of your game to wallowing in misery and what-ifs. How will your thoughts fail you? How you shoot those thoughts in your head determines whether or not you will propel yourself to success or slam you into the wall of another failure. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    With March Madness in full swing, the Sweet 16 has been decided. Did your teams make it? But you know, it didn't come with ease. The players had to overcome many obstacles, especially the ones between their ears. Lots of decisions are made on the court. And the game moves so swiftly that if you linger too long on one thought, you lose the advantage. You get left behind. Research shows that our brains have a negativity bias, meaning we tend to remember and focus more on negative experiences rather than positive ones. I'm sure you've found yourself a time or two swimming with negative thoughts that won't go away. And for a moment, it's not a big deal. It's like swimming in paradise, all too familiar. But then, the water (those thoughts) get heavier and begin to weigh you down. Now, you're no longer in paradise, but struggling in sinking sand. What is that inner dialogue that you have with yourself every day? What keeps coming back up for you-- at home, at work, at play? Because you do realize that your thoughts control your day, especially your reactions. Right? It would be great if you would respond, but at the time, you didn't have it together, and all you felt was the pressure to react. There you go, spiraling downhill. <ul> <li>"I'm not good enough," screams in your mind. </li> <li>"You'll never be able to do that," echoes through the valleys in your head.</li> <li>"You'll never amount to anything" is the heartbeat of your sigh.</li> </ul> Negative self-talk can spiral into self-doubt, leading to a lack of confidence and poor performance. "Your thoughts can become your worst enemy if you allow them to control your actions," says sports psychologist Dr. Sarah Johnson. But how can you take control of your thoughts and prevent them from sabotaging your success? How do you rise above the mental attack within yourself, within your mind? How will you overcome the thoughts so your thoughts don't overcome you? Establish your "thought clock"! The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish your "thought clock"! This reminds me of the shot clock for basketball. The shot clock is a crucial component of the game that ensures fast-paced and exciting gameplay.  So let's take our Thought Madness a little further and impose the Thought Clock, a shot clock for your thoughts to keep your game of life moving in the right direction. 1. Prevent Stalling - Don't run out your time on kicking your negative thoughts to the curb. It's time those negative thoughts are put in their place, allowing for more skillful and intentional thoughts to shine through, the positive ones that are a gamechanger. When you prevent stalling, you can move faster than the negative thoughts. 2. Promote Fairness - Unfortunately, negative thoughts always have the upper hand. This changes when you have the Thought Clock. Imagine if you gave as much time to positive thoughts as you do negative thoughts, how would that influence the outcome? This element of fairness gives you permission to shut down what isn't working for you.  Go back and look at your Thought Madness Bracket. Which teams of thoughts are ahead? Hopefully, you are giving yourself a chance to walk your miles of greatness by more positive thoughts winning. Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Your thoughts are the seeds you plant in the garden of your mind – choose wisely." As basketball coach Phil Jackson once said, "The mind is the most important muscle in the body. It's not about what you can do, but what your mind allows you to do." 3. Increase Action - Take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation! ~ Kristianne Wargo It's all about offensive skill, taking shots within a reasonable amount of time. You have got to silence the thoughts that weigh you down and reframe the thoughts that are in hiding. If you don't use the skills you have, the talents and gifts you possess, how will that help you in the game of life. Get back on the court and decide that great things are possible. As renowned basketball player Michael Jordan said, "You must expect great things of yourself before you can do them." You must challenge yourself to be a participant in your thoughts. If you want to be ALL IN in the game of your life, you have got to use the Thought Clock, it's like the shot clock. Did you know the shot clock is a fundamental rule in basketball that enhances the competitiveness and excitement of the sport by promoting active gameplay, preventing stalling tactics, and ensuring a fair and dynamic playing field. "Don't let your season end with negative thoughts. Fight for you!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Your thoughts can be powerful allies or formidable opponents. Who do you want to win every day? Take your thoughts captive. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo reminds us, "Your thoughts create your now – choose them wisely."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🎥 Karen Kingsbury Productions Presents <a href="https://someonelikeyou.movie" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone Like You.movie</a> 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You go from being on top of your game to wallowing in misery and what-ifs. How will your thoughts fail you? How you shoot those thoughts in your head determines whether or not you will propel yourself to success or slam you into the wall of another failure. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    With March Madness in full swing, the Sweet 16 has been decided. Did your teams make it? But you know, it didn't come with ease. The players had to overcome many obstacles, especially the ones between their ears. Lots of decisions are made on the court. And the game moves so swiftly that if you linger too long on one thought, you lose the advantage. You get left behind. Research shows that our brains have a negativity bias, meaning we tend to remember and focus more on negative experiences rather than positive ones. I'm sure you've found yourself a time or two swimming with negative thoughts that won't go away. And for a moment, it's not a big deal. It's like swimming in paradise, all too familiar. But then, the water (those thoughts) get heavier and begin to weigh you down. Now, you're no longer in paradise, but struggling in sinking sand. What is that inner dialogue that you have with yourself every day? What keeps coming back up for you-- at home, at work, at play? Because you do realize that your thoughts control your day, especially your reactions. Right? It would be great if you would respond, but at the time, you didn't have it together, and all you felt was the pressure to react. There you go, spiraling downhill. <ul> <li>"I'm not good enough," screams in your mind. </li> <li>"You'll never be able to do that," echoes through the valleys in your head.</li> <li>"You'll never amount to anything" is the heartbeat of your sigh.</li> </ul> Negative self-talk can spiral into self-doubt, leading to a lack of confidence and poor performance. "Your thoughts can become your worst enemy if you allow them to control your actions," says sports psychologist Dr. Sarah Johnson. But how can you take control of your thoughts and prevent them from sabotaging your success? How do you rise above the mental attack within yourself, within your mind? How will you overcome the thoughts so your thoughts don't overcome you? Establish your "thought clock"! The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish your "thought clock"! This reminds me of the shot clock for basketball. The shot clock is a crucial component of the game that ensures fast-paced and exciting gameplay.  So let's take our Thought Madness a little further and impose the Thought Clock, a shot clock for your thoughts to keep your game of life moving in the right direction. 1. Prevent Stalling - Don't run out your time on kicking your negative thoughts to the curb. It's time those negative thoughts are put in their place, allowing for more skillful and intentional thoughts to shine through, the positive ones that are a gamechanger. When you prevent stalling, you can move faster than the negative thoughts. 2. Promote Fairness - Unfortunately, negative thoughts always have the upper hand. This changes when you have the Thought Clock. Imagine if you gave as much time to positive thoughts as you do negative thoughts, how would that influence the outcome? This element of fairness gives you permission to shut down what isn't working for you.  Go back and look at your Thought Madness Bracket. Which teams of thoughts are ahead? Hopefully, you are giving yourself a chance to walk your miles of greatness by more positive thoughts winning. Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Your thoughts are the seeds you plant in the garden of your mind – choose wisely."

Triumphs to tribulations; a blessing in disguise for you and me. Despite the jubilant reception and praises of the crowd, Jesus knew that within the walls of the city, betrayal, suffering, and the ultimate sacrifice awaited Him.

With unwavering resolve and unwavering faith, Jesus moved forward, embracing his destiny even as it led him to the city where he would be betrayed by one of his own. His entry into Jerusalem symbolized the paradox of triumph and tribulation, as the cries of "Hosanna" mingled with the shadows of the cross that awaited Him. Do you ever feel like you have reached the pinnacle, only to find a deeper plunge into the unknown on the other side? The K.I.S.S. ~ A blessing in disguise! Life has a way of twisting and turning, from trials and tribulations to triumphs. And then, it repeats itself again. However, the key I noticed was that Jesus had faith. He knew His purpose and was more than willing to follow through. Would you be willing to do the same? Are you willing to do the same? In the face of impending betrayal, Jesus' courage and conviction shone brightly, illuminating the path for all who would follow. His journey into Jerusalem serves as a poignant reminder that true strength lies not in avoiding adversity, but in facing it head-on with steadfast faith and unwavering purpose. As we contemplate Jesus's entry into the city where betrayal awaited Him, let us be inspired by his example of enduring faith and sacrificial love. May we carry the spirit of "Hosanna in the highest" in our hearts, acknowledging that even in the darkest moments, the light of redemption and salvation shines brightest.   "Be present.

However, many couples struggle because the past is still present. You must stop the madness in your marriage if you want to live happily ever after. The lingering remnants of our past can cast a long shadow over the present, shaping our relationships in unexpected ways. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Unaddressed traumas, unresolved conflicts, and buried emotions can morph into a looming Mount Everest. As Kristianne Wargo wisely puts it, "The trash of your past needs to be taken out or it becomes an overwhelming mountain of C.R.A.P. It stinks, it smells, it shackles the heart."  In order to break free from the chains of the past and pave the way for a thriving marriage, it is imperative to confront the buried burdens head-on.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Confront the buried burdens head-on! If you choose to hide from the past, it will haunt you down and destroy your marriage. Put on your big girl panties! I know you have the courage to face your past. I understand it won't be easy and you might even uncover some things you didn't think was a big deal. But the key is to know and understand to the best of your ability, so you can move forward with confidence that your past is simply that-- your past! Here are three actionable steps that spouses can take to navigate the complexities of their past and cultivate a healthier present for their marriage: 1. Acknowledge and Accept the Past Self-awareness serves as the first step towards healing. Recognize the impact of past traumas, generational patterns, and unresolved conflicts on your present behavior and relationships. You can't heal what you don't acknowledge. Stop using the excuse of not knowing, and learn what has been holding you back in your past. By confronting those shadows with honesty and vulnerability, you make a way to reach the freedom to love deeper. 2. Break the Old Patterns A lot of what we carry with us comes from our past experiences, which are fueled by generational patterns. Our parents and grandparents and everyone in between have an influence on how we lead our lives. However, there comes a point in life where we have to look at what is good for us as an individual and then as a couple. By breaking free from the cycle of generational sins, you create space for personal growth and relational harmony. Author Haruki Murakami, "If you can't understand it without an explanation, you can't understand it with an explanation." In other words, just because it made sense in the past doesn't mean it is right for you in the present. 3. Forgive to Let Go Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself first. When you forgive, you are giving away what is burying your heart deep in the dungeon of despair. And then, it's that forgiveness that sweeps away the dust bunnies in the nooks and crannies that steals away your courage to heal from the hurts. You can heal, but you have to forgive to let go!  As Kristianne Wargo aptly states, "At some point, you have to face your past so you can be present today." CHALLENGE: How have you dealt with your past? Or have you? By embarking on this journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and growth, spouses can unravel the shackles of the past and forge a path toward a more resilient and genuine marriage. In the timeless words of Maya Angelou, "History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again." Some things need not be repeated; they must be left in the past and dealt with. Stop the madness in your marriage!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🎥 Karen Kingsbury Productions Presents <a href="https://someonelikeyou.movie" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone Like You.movie</a> 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Here are three actionable steps that spouses can take to navigate the complexities of their past and cultivate a healthier present for their marriage: 1. Acknowledge and Accept the Past Self-awareness serves as the first step towards healing. Recognize the impact of past traumas, generational patterns, and unresolved conflicts on your present behavior and relationships. You can't heal what you don't acknowledge. Stop using the excuse of not knowing, and learn what has been holding you back in your past. By confronting those shadows with honesty and vulnerability, you make a way to reach the freedom to love deeper. 2. Break the Old Patterns A lot of what we carry with us comes from our past experiences, which are fueled by generational patterns. Our parents and grandparents and everyone in between have an influence on how we lead our lives. However, there comes a point in life where we have to look at what is good for us as an individual and then as a couple. By breaking free from the cycle of generational sins, you create space for personal growth and relational harmony. Author Haruki Murakami, "If you can't understand it without an explanation, you can't understand it with an explanation." In other words, just because it made sense in the past doesn't mean it is right for you in the present. 3. Forgive to Let Go Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself first. When you forgive, you are giving away what is burying your heart deep in the dungeon of despair. And then, it's that forgiveness that sweeps away the dust bunnies in the nooks and crannies that steals away your courage to heal from the hurts. You can heal, but you have to forgive to let go!  As Kristianne Wargo aptly states, "At some point, you have to face your past so you can be present today." CHALLENGE: How have you dealt with your past? Or have you? By embarking on this journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and growth, spouses can unravel the shackles of the past and forge a path toward a more resilient and genuine marriage. In the timeless words of Maya Angelou, "History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again." Some things need not be repeated; they must be left in the past and dealt with. Stop the madness in your marriage!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🎥 Karen Kingsbury Productions Presents <a...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1118</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,past,presence,purpose,reconciliation,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/61b2ff05ffc653495581b3c71f057a1f.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3344 Your Words Carry Weight</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3344-your-words-carry-weight--59134659</link><description><![CDATA[Trust and respect are built not only on our actions but also on our verbal interactions with our children. Parents, your words carry weight.  Every word you utter shapes your child's perceptions and self-esteem. Mom (and Dad)-- your words hold immense power!

It's crucial to be mindful of the language we use with our children. So let me ask you-- how do you speak to your child? What words do you find yourself repeating? In what circumstances do you use certain words? "Do not underestimate the impact your words have on your child's emotional well-being," says Child Psychologist, Dr. Sarah Johnson. "Words have the power to build or break a child's self-esteem and confidence." If you want to build your child up, build a foundation of trustworthy words. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build a foundation of trustworthy words! Consider your words seeds that will bloom and blossom when given the right fertilizer, the circumstances in which they are used. In order to foster positive communication with our children, here are three steps parents can take to improve their language: 1. Practice Active Listening: Instead of simply issuing commands or criticisms, take the time to actively listen to your child's thoughts and feelings. Ask open-ended questions to encourage dialogue and show genuine interest in their responses. For example, instead of saying, "Clean your room now!" try asking, "How was your day? What made you feel happy or sad today?" Parenting coach, Emma Roberts emphasizes, "Active listening conveys respect for your child's perspective and fosters a sense of understanding and empathy." 2. Use Positive Affirmations: Incorporate positive affirmations into your daily interactions with your child. Offer words of encouragement and praise for their efforts and achievements. Instead of focusing on shortcomings, highlight their strengths and potential. For instance, say, "I am proud of how hard you worked on that project" or "You are so creative and thoughtful." Parenting author, Mark Smith shares, "Positive affirmations help nurture a child's self-confidence and motivate them to strive for success." 3. Practice Patience and Empathy: In moments of frustration or anger, take a pause before responding to your child. Consider their feelings and perspective before reacting impulsively. Show empathy by acknowledging their emotions and validating their experience. Instead of dismissing their concerns, offer comforting words and reassurance. For example, say, "I understand that you are upset. Let's talk about why you feel that way." Parenting educator, Maria Garcia advocates, "Practicing patience and empathy creates a safe and supportive environment for your child to express themselves openly." Kristianne Wargo aptly says, "Our words shape our children's world. Let's choose them wisely and kindly." Remember, the way we speak to our children can have a lasting impact on their self-esteem and emotional well-being. Let's strive to choose our words thoughtfully and nurture a positive and trusting relationship with our little ones.   "Be present. Be incredible.

This sentiment rings true for many of us. That project you keep delaying, that dream you haven't pursued – they won't accomplish themselves. It's up to you to take the first step. Procrastination often stems from fear of failure or perfectionism. However, as author and researcher Brené Brown advises, "What we know matters, but who we are matters more."

Instead, face your challenges head-on with determination and grit. You have the strength within you to accomplish great things – but only if you take that first crucial step. Remember, as American author Napoleon Hill once said, "The starting point of all achievement is desire." What do you desire? What are you willing to work for? The answers lie within you. It's time to seize the day, to embrace the tasks in front of you with confidence and determination. Don't let procrastination rob you of your potential.

We think it's all-or-nothing. We put off what matters today to get a second chance tomorrow. Cast away your second thoughts and live in freedom. In the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle, the pressure to go all in or nothing can often lead to feelings of failure and discouragement. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, embracing a perspective of living in the moment can empower individuals to make positive choices for their health and well-being each day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Eradicate the all-or-nothing attitude! The key is to live in freedom. Boundaries are one thing, but rigidity is something else. Here are three simple strategies to eradicate the struggles of the all-or-nothing mentality and cultivate a mindset of freedom in your healthy living journey: 1. Embrace Mindful Eating: Instead of rigid diet plans or strict meal restrictions, focus on practicing mindful eating. Allow yourself to fully enjoy and savor each bite of your meals, paying attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues. As health coach Megan Roosevelt wisely said, "Eating mindfully is about listening to your body, nourishing yourself, and enjoying the experience of eating without judgment." 2. Prioritize Movement You Love: Exercise shouldn't feel like a punishment or obligation. Find physical activities that bring you joy and make you feel good. Whether it's dancing, hiking, or practicing yoga, moving your body in ways that you genuinely enjoy can lead to sustainable habits. As fitness expert Gabby Reece said, "Movement is a celebration of what your body can do, not a punishment for what you ate." 3. Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself on your journey to a healthy lifestyle. Remember that progress is not always linear, and setbacks are a natural part of growth. Offer yourself the same compassion and encouragement you would give a friend facing a challenge. As Kristianne Wargo astutely said, "In the pursuit of wellness, remember to be kind to yourself. Progress is progress, no matter how small." By incorporating these strategies into your daily routine, you can break free from the all-or-nothing mentality and embrace a lifestyle of freedom and balance. Remember, each small step you take towards better health is a victory in itself.   "Be present. Be incredible.

We put off what matters today to get a second chance tomorrow. Cast away your second thoughts and live in freedom. In the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle, the pressure to go all in or nothing can often lead to feelings of failure and discouragement. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, embracing a perspective of living in the moment can empower individuals to make positive choices for their health and well-being each day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Eradicate the all-or-nothing attitude! The key is to live in freedom. Boundaries are one thing, but rigidity is something else. Here are three simple strategies to eradicate the struggles of the all-or-nothing mentality and cultivate a mindset of freedom in your healthy living journey: 1. Embrace Mindful Eating: Instead of rigid diet plans or strict meal restrictions, focus on practicing mindful eating. Allow yourself to fully enjoy and savor each bite of your meals, paying attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues. As health coach Megan Roosevelt wisely said, "Eating mindfully is about listening to your body, nourishing yourself, and enjoying the experience of eating without judgment." 2. Prioritize Movement You Love: Exercise shouldn't feel like a punishment or obligation. Find physical activities that bring you joy and make you feel good. Whether it's dancing, hiking, or practicing yoga, moving your body in ways that you genuinely enjoy can lead to sustainable habits. As fitness expert Gabby Reece said, "Movement is a celebration of what your body can do, not a punishment for what you ate." 3. Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself on your journey to a healthy lifestyle. Remember that progress is not always linear, and setbacks are a natural part of growth. Offer yourself the same compassion and encouragement you would give a friend facing a challenge. As Kristianne Wargo astutely said, "In the pursuit of wellness, remember to be kind to yourself. Progress is progress, no matter how small." By incorporating these strategies into your daily routine, you can break free from the all-or-nothing mentality and embrace a lifestyle of freedom and balance. Remember, each small step you take towards better health is a victory in itself.   "Be present. Be incredible.

We often fall into that trap of procrastination, delaying the inevitable, only to find that tomorrow has arrived, and the task still looms before us. In the words of renowned motivational speaker, Tony Robbins, "The only impossible journey is the one you never begin." How true this is in our daily lives. By avoiding facing the challenges and responsibilities of today, we only set ourselves up for a cycle of perpetual delay and missed opportunities. As Kristianne Wargo wisely points out, "Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage." The K.I.S.S. ~ Just do the thing! Each time you choose to tackle the task at hand, no matter how daunting it may seem, you are expanding your capacity for growth and success. Instead of allowing fear and uncertainty to hold you back, taking that first step propels you forward into a realm of endless possibilities. Procrastination not only hinders your progress, but also weighs heavily on your mind, draining your energy and enthusiasm. By simply mustering the courage to "just do the thing," you free yourself from the shackles of indecision and open up a world of newfound clarity and purpose. In the words of renowned author Karen Lamb, "A year from now you may wish you had started today." Let this serve as a gentle reminder that the time to act is always now. Create your now! Embrace each challenge as an opportunity for growth, and watch as your courage and determination propel you toward a brighter future. As Kristianne Wargo aptly puts it, "Today's actions pave the way for tomorrow's triumphs." So, take that first step, confront that looming task, and witness how seizing the day can lead to a life filled with endless possibilities and endless rewards. Just do the thing!   "Be present.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Our thoughts shape our beliefs, attitudes, and actions, ultimately influencing the outcomes we manifest. Just as a basketball player's mindset can impact their performance on the court, your thoughts have the power to propel you towards success or hold you back from achieving your dreams. When your thoughts are scattered and unfocused, like a loose ball bouncing aimlessly on the court, your energy and efforts become diffused. This lack of mental clarity hinders your ability to make strategic decisions, stay motivated, and persevere through challenges. Without a firm grip on your thoughts, you risk being tossed around by external circumstances and internal doubts, derailing your progress and leaving your goals out of reach. However, if you're willing to master your thoughts, nothing is impossible!  The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your thoughts! Conversely, mastering your thoughts is like mastering the game of basketball – it requires skill, practice, and resilience. By taking control of your thoughts and steering them in alignment with your aspirations, you gain a competitive edge in the arena of life. When your thoughts are harmonized with your goals and values, you are better equipped to make purposeful choices, maintain focus amidst distractions, and bounce back from setbacks with determination. Here are three strategies to help you juggle your thoughts effectively and keep your mind centered on what truly matters. 1. Fast Break to Mindfulness: When your thoughts are spinning out of control like a fast break, take a moment to ground yourself in mindfulness. Just like a basketball player who needs to slow down and focus on the next move, practice mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing or meditation to bring clarity to your mind. By being present in the moment, you can gain control over the flurry of thoughts vying for your attention. As author Eckhart Tolle once said: "Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the NOW the primary focus of your life." 2. Triple-Double Your Self-Talk: Just as a triple-double in basketball signifies a player excelling in multiple areas, aim to excel in managing your self-talk. Monitor the story playing in your mind and challenge negative or distracting thoughts that hinder your progress. Replace them with positive affirmations and empowering beliefs that align with your goals. By cultivating a winning mindset, you can steer your thoughts towards success. Psychologist Carol Dweck famously said: "The view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life." 3. Full-Court Press Your Distractions: In the game of Thought Madness, distractions often act as defenders trying to steal your focus. Employ a full-court press strategy by identifying your main distractions and creating a plan to counter them. Whether it's setting boundaries with digital devices, organizing your workspace for optimal productivity, or prioritizing tasks effectively, take proactive steps to minimize distractions and keep your thoughts aligned with your objectives. "Take your thoughts captive to lead your mind into intentional action." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, just like a skilled basketball player controls the jump ball to their advantage, you can navigate your thoughts and steer them toward your desired destination.  In essence, the mind is the playing field where your dreams take shape, and your thoughts are the players that either work for or against you. By honing your mental game, cultivating a positive mindset, and consciously directing your thoughts toward what you desire, you set yourself up for success. Just as a basketball team relies on coordinated efforts and strategic plays to secure victory, your thoughts, when harnessed and disciplined, can lead you toward realizing your goals and dreams.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Our thoughts shape our beliefs, attitudes, and actions, ultimately influencing the outcomes we manifest. Just as a basketball player's mindset can impact their performance on the court, your thoughts have the power to propel you towards success or hold you back from achieving your dreams. When your thoughts are scattered and unfocused, like a loose ball bouncing aimlessly on the court, your energy and efforts become diffused. This lack of mental clarity hinders your ability to make strategic decisions, stay motivated, and persevere through challenges. Without a firm grip on your thoughts, you risk being tossed around by external circumstances and internal doubts, derailing your progress and leaving your goals out of reach. However, if you're willing to master your thoughts, nothing is impossible!  The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your thoughts! Conversely, mastering your thoughts is like mastering the game of basketball – it requires skill, practice, and resilience. By taking control of your thoughts and steering them in alignment with your aspirations, you gain a competitive edge in the arena of life. When your thoughts are harmonized with your goals and values, you are better equipped to make purposeful choices, maintain focus amidst distractions, and bounce back from setbacks with determination. Here are three strategies to help you juggle your thoughts effectively and keep your mind centered on what truly matters. 1. Fast Break to Mindfulness: When your thoughts are spinning out of control like a fast break, take a moment to ground yourself in mindfulness. Just like a basketball player who needs to slow down and focus on the next move, practice mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing or meditation to bring clarity to your mind. By being present in the moment, you can gain control over the flurry of thoughts vying for your attention. As author Eckhart Tolle once said: "Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the NOW the primary focus of your life." 2. Triple-Double Your Self-Talk: Just as a triple-double in basketball signifies a player excelling in multiple areas, aim to excel in managing your self-talk. Monitor the story playing in your mind and challenge negative or distracting thoughts that hinder your progress. Replace them with positive affirmations and empowering beliefs that align with your goals. By cultivating a winning mindset, you can steer your thoughts towards success. Psychologist Carol Dweck famously said: "The view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life." 3. Full-Court Press Your Distractions: In the game of Thought Madness, distractions often act as defenders trying to steal your focus. Employ a full-court press strategy by identifying your main distractions and creating a plan to counter them. Whether it's setting boundaries with digital devices, organizing your workspace for optimal productivity, or prioritizing tasks effectively, take proactive steps to minimize distractions...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1170</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,dreams,entrepreneurs,forgiveness,goals,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/30299a2aa645b8f4b03ecd60b37dddb8.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3339 Rejoice and Be Glad</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3339-rejoice-and-be-glad--59076146</link><description><![CDATA[“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." ~ Matthew 5:11-12 How connected are you to God? How present is He in your life? Do you tend to hide Him and only bring He out when you need Him? Or do you share Him with the world you touch? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Today, many celebrate St. Patrick's Day. And some use it to drink more, wear more green, and as an excuse to have a party. But there is so much more to know about St. Patrick, some from his biography and others from what was passed down through the centuries.  In the heart of ancient Ireland, amidst the lush green countryside where legends and faith intertwined, there lived a man known as St. Patrick. His story is not just a tale of distant times but a timeless journey of resilience, belief, and the profound impact one individual can have on the world around them. Born Maewyn Succat in Roman Britain, St. Patrick's life took a fateful turn when he was captured by Irish pirates and sold into slavery in the mystical lands of Ireland. In the shadows of hardship and solitude, he found solace in his unwavering faith, a flickering light amidst the darkness. It was in those moments of isolation that he heard a divine call, a whisper from God beckoning him to escape and carry the torch of Christianity across the Irish hills and valleys. Returning to his homeland, now a man of God, St. Patrick embarked on a mission that would shape the course of Irish history forever. Armed with unwavering conviction and an open heart, he traversed the rugged landscapes of Ireland, preaching the Gospel and baptizing thousands in the name of Christ. His teachings transcended the boundaries of language and culture, resonating with the souls of the Irish people and kindling a flame of faith that would burn brightly for centuries to come. In the words of St. Patrick himself, "I bind unto myself today the power of God to guide me, the might of God to uphold me, the wisdom of God to teach me." These words echo through the ages as a timeless reminder of the strength that comes from divine grace and the wisdom that springs from a heart attuned to God's will. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rejoice and be glad! How connected are you to God? Are you one who can honestly say that you are putting Him first in your life? Now, of course, this is between you and God. This is not about pointing fingers or declaring someone is more connected to God than someone else. This is personal! And that's how God wants it. He desires to be personal with you in everything that you do. As we reflect on the life and legacy of St. Patrick, draw strength from his example of perseverance and dedication. His life serves as a reminder that in the face of adversity, you can find courage and purpose through your faith. Embrace the challenges that lie before you with courage and faith, knowing that you can overcome any obstacles in your path with God's guidance. I want you to ponder this on St. Patrick's Day. The famous prayer known as "St. Patrick's Breastplate" or "The Lorica of St. Patrick." The full verse goes as follows: "Christ beside me, Christ before me,<br /> Christ behind me, Christ within me,<br /> Christ beneath me, Christ above me,<br /> Christ on my right, Christ on my left,<br /> Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down,<br /> Christ when I arise, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,<br /> Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,<br /> Christ in every eye that sees me,<br /> Christ in every ear that hears me." This powerful prayer reflects St. Patrick's deep faith in Christ's presence and protection in every aspect of his life, guiding him through challenges and triumphs on his mission to spread Christianity in Ireland. The words embody a sense of divine companionship and spiritual fortitude that continues to resonate with believers across the centuries. How connected are you to God?  Who do you see in your reflection? God or yourself? "Christ beside me, Christ before me,<br /> Christ behind me, Christ within me,<br /> Christ beneath me, Christ above me....." No matter what you face, are you able to rejoice and be glad? That answer is a reflection of God's presence in your life. Go in peace.   "Be present. Be incredible.

For those seeking to elevate their union to greater heights, this season presents an opportunity of delight – the more love grows.  How bad do you want a great marriage?

How great is your marriage? Are you enjoying life together? Are you really better together? Or you might be fighting more than loving. "Love is a verb requiring a decision to put the action in motion to unconditionally serve another soul." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Till the soil! Here are three essential steps to cultivate and grow love in your marriage: 1. What Needs to Go? Let go of expectations and embrace acceptance. Unrealistic expectations can often become the bane of relationships. As Dr. Wayne Dyer once said, "Peace is the result of retraining your mind to process life as it is, rather than as you think it should be." By shedding expectations and accepting your partner for who they are, you can pave the way for mutual understanding and appreciation. "Love flourishes in the soil of acceptance." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. What Needs to Stay? Cultivate open and honest communication. Communication is the lifeline of any successful marriage. It is imperative to create a safe space for both partners to express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns openly. Relationship expert John Gottman says, "In an emotionally connected relationship, your vulnerability is rewarded with care, affection, and acceptance." "True love listens before it speaks." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. What Needs to Grow? Nurture shared experiences and prioritize quality time together. Building a reservoir of memorable moments strengthens the bond between partners. Whether it's a romantic dinner date or a weekend getaway, investing in your relationship sets the foundation for a love that blossoms over time. In the words of author Mignon McLaughlin, "A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person." As you embark on this journey to grow your love this season, remember that progress takes time and dedication. By tending to the roots of your relationship and cultivating a nurturing environment, your love will undoubtedly flourish into something more profound and enduring. Now, take a moment and sow the seeds of love in your marriage, for as Kristianne Wargo reminds us, "Love is a garden that requires constant care and attention." **The More Love Grows**   In the season of Spring, where raindrops fall, And winds of change whisper their sweet call, Love blossoms like buds on a flowering tree, In the heart of you and me.   Nurtured by the gentle touch of care, Love flourishes beyond compare, Like petals dancing in the breeze, Entwined in a bond that never sees.   Through storms we weather, hand in hand, Love grows deeper, rooted in the land, Of trust and understanding, ever true, In the garden of us, love anew.   So let the rain of challenges pour, For in love's garden, we seek more, A layer of beauty to grace our souls, As the seasons change and love unfolds.   For in the garden where love is sown, It's in the nurturing that it's known, The more we tend, the more we see, Love's endless growth, eternally free.   So let us tend to this love we share, With hearts open and souls laid bare, For in the cycle of life that ebbs and flows, We find the beauty in how love grows.

Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🎥 Karen Kingsbury Productions Presents <a href="https://someonelikeyou.movie" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone Like You.movie</a> 🔔 Desire to be supported...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>944</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/206fc9d1cbfecf43be65c0c074092e9b.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3337 How Do You Raise Compassionate Children in a Self-Centered World?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3337-how-do-you-raise-compassionate-children-in-a-self-centered-world--59053166</link><description><![CDATA[In a society that often values individualism and self-interest, it can be challenging for parents to raise children who exhibit kindness and empathy toward others. How do you raise compassionate children in a self-centered world? As parents, we must instill these values early on and actively nurture them as our children grow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Teaching kindness goes beyond just manners; it involves fostering a genuine concern for others and a willingness to help and support those in need. It's doing what the average person wouldn't do; going above and beyond. I have a great friend, mentor, coach, you name it, he's it-- But his goal this year is to give away $100 every day. And he is including his kiddos in that so they understand the message of kindness. We can impact the world we touch in a manner that is respectful and kind regardless of who stands in front of us. So what are you doing to teach your child kindness? Are you showing them with your own actions toward them? Or are you mean and fussy with people most of the time? It's important to examine ourselves before we attempt to instill behaviors in others, especially our children. As you consider how you want your child to act, be sure to consider how you act. You can teach an old dog new tricks. So start from the beginning. The K.I.S.S. ~ Start from the beginning! Too often, we lead with the idea that we have to do what we have been doing. We get stuck in our ways and continue down the same path. For your tree to grow, you have to prune it from the bottom up—that's caring for it from the foundation. There's a time for everything and a season for every activity (Ecclesiastes 3:1). 'Tis the season to prune and build a strong foundation for your child to serve in their unique capacity. Here are three specific strategies parents can implement to encourage kindness in their children and shape their understanding of what it truly means to be kind: 1. Imitate What You Want to See: Children learn through observation and imitation. By modeling acts of kindness and compassion in your own behavior, you are setting a powerful example for your children to follow. Whether it's helping a neighbor in need, volunteering in the community, or simply showing empathy toward others, your actions speak louder than words. As parenting expert Kristianne Wargo wisely noted, "Children are like sponges; they absorb the world around them. By embodying the values of kindness and compassion ourselves, we are teaching our children to do the same." 2. Teach Your Child to Ask, "How are you feeling?": Empathy is at the core of kindness. Parents can nurture empathy in their children by encouraging them to consider the feelings and perspectives of others. This can be done through open communication, discussing emotions, and actively listening to their thoughts and concerns. Children develop a stronger sense of empathy towards others by fostering an understanding of different experiences and promoting compassion. Research by the University of Wisconsin-Madison found that children who have been raised to be empathetic are more likely to engage in prosocial behaviors, such as sharing, helping, and cooperating with others. Cultivating empathy in children is a key ingredient in shaping their kindness towards others. 3. Create a Gratitude Jar: Gratitude and generosity are essential to kindness. Parents can cultivate these qualities in their children by practicing gratitude rituals, such as keeping a gratitude jar or journal for expressing thanks for acts of kindness. Encouraging children to give back to their community through volunteering or acts of generosity also reinforces the importance of caring for others. In the words of parenting author L.R. Knost, "It's not our job to toughen our children up to face a cruel and heartless world. It's our job to raise children who will make the world a little less cruel and heartless." By instilling values of gratitude and generosity, parents empower their children to make a positive impact on those around them. In conclusion, raising kind children in a self-centered world requires intentionality, consistency, and a dedication to nurturing qualities of empathy, compassion, and generosity. By implementing these strategies and fostering a culture of kindness in the home, parents can equip their children with the tools they need to navigate the complexities of the world with empathy and grace. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo wisely puts it, "Kindness begins at home, but its ripple effect can change the world."   "Be present. Be incredible.

As Zig Ziglar wisely noted, "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great."

So when your food smiles back, you are eating for your body. Your overall health and well-being can significantly impact your life and how you live it. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And when you eat, it's not just about filling your stomach; it's about nourishing your body from the inside out. What was the last food you put in your mouth? Was it fruits and vegetables? Oh, wait—maybe something processed in a box or wrapper. Or could you have drunk your calories with that sugary sweet nectar? We have to know what we're eating, when we're eating, and why we're eating if we want to impact our overall health. The K.I.S.S. ~ You are what you eat! Let's explore the concept of "When Your Food Smiles Back" and how you can discover what foods work best for your body. 1. Be Mindful of How You Feel Take note of how different foods make you feel after you eat them. Do you feel energized and satisfied, or do you experience bloating and fatigue? Paying attention to these signals can help you identify which foods your body thrives on. As nutritionist Mary Smith suggests, "Understanding the connection between what you eat and how you feel is key to eating for your body." 2. Keep a Food Journal Keeping a food journal can be a powerful tool in discovering what works for your body. Jot down what you eat each day and how you feel afterward. This practice can help you recognize patterns and pinpoint foods that may not agree with you. As health coach Sarah Johnson notes, "A food journal can provide valuable insights into your unique dietary needs and help you make informed choices." 3. Experiment with Different Foods Don't be afraid to step out of your culinary comfort zone and try new foods. Experimenting with a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins can help you diversify your diet and uncover hidden gems that your body loves. According to chef and food writer Julia Adams, "Exploring different cuisines and ingredients can open up a world of possibilities for finding foods that truly nourish your body." "In the journey of health, the language of food speaks volumes when your body smiles back at you." - Kristianne Wargo Remember, eating for your body is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It's about listening to your body's cues and honoring its unique needs. By being mindful, keeping a food journal, and experimenting with different foods, you can unlock the secret to optimal health and vitality.   "Be present. Be incredible.

So when your food smiles back, you are eating for your body. Your overall health and well-being can significantly impact your life and how you live it. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And when you eat, it's not just about filling your stomach; it's about nourishing your body from the inside out. What was the last food you put in your mouth? Was it fruits and vegetables? Oh, wait—maybe something processed in a box or wrapper. Or could you have drunk your calories with that sugary sweet nectar? We have to know what we're eating, when we're eating, and why we're eating if we want to impact our overall health. The K.I.S.S. ~ You are what you eat! Let's explore the concept of "When Your Food Smiles Back" and how you can discover what foods work best for your body. 1. Be Mindful of How You Feel Take note of how different foods make you feel after you eat them. Do you feel energized and satisfied, or do you experience bloating and fatigue? Paying attention to these signals can help you identify which foods your body thrives on. As nutritionist Mary Smith suggests, "Understanding the connection between what you eat and how you feel is key to eating for your body." 2. Keep a Food Journal Keeping a food journal can be a powerful tool in discovering what works for your body. Jot down what you eat each day and how you feel afterward. This practice can help you recognize patterns and pinpoint foods that may not agree with you. As health coach Sarah Johnson notes, "A food journal can provide valuable insights into your unique dietary needs and help you make informed choices." 3. Experiment with Different Foods Don't be afraid to step out of your culinary comfort zone and try new foods. Experimenting with a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins can help you diversify your diet and uncover hidden gems that your body loves. According to chef and food writer Julia Adams, "Exploring different cuisines and ingredients can open up a world of possibilities for finding foods that truly nourish your body." "In the journey of health, the language of food speaks volumes when your body smiles back at you." - Kristianne Wargo Remember, eating for your body is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It's about listening to your body's cues and honoring its unique needs. By being mindful, keeping a food journal, and experimenting with different foods, you can unlock the secret to optimal health and vitality.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Dare to dream the unimagineable. Strive for the unattainable; that is where the magic lies. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yet, how does one muster the audacity to transcend the borders of convention? How does one defy the odds stacked high against them and triumph in the face of adversity? The answer, my friend, lies not in the search for the possible but in the conviction that impossibility is merely a mirage. "The only limits that exist are the ones we allow to define us." - Kristianne Wargo Some may argue that the impossible is a notion crafted by the faint-hearted, a mantra of the disillusioned. Yet, amidst the cacophony of skepticism, there exists a symphony of believers, whispering tales of the extraordinary, stories of those who dared to chase the impossible and caught it by the tail. As Walt Disney once proclaimed, "It's kind of fun to do the impossible." A sentiment echoed in the hearts of dreamers, visionaries, and pioneers throughout history. For it is in the realm of the impossible that true innovation takes root, where the seeds of greatness are sown, watered by resilience, and nurtured by unwavering faith. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dare to dream the unimagineable! "The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible." - Arthur C. Clarke So, when the weight of doubt bears heavily upon your shoulders, when the whispers of naysayers cloud your vision, remember this: impossibility is but a construct of the mind, a barrier waiting to be shattered by the force of determination, by the power of belief. "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee In every corner, there exists a spark of greatness flickering within each of us, a flame waiting to be ignited by the winds of courage, fueled by the embers of perseverance. So, I beg you, do not shy away from the impossible, for within its shadow lies the light of endless possibilities waiting to be claimed by those audacious enough to reach for the stars. "In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take." - Lewis Carroll Are you ready to make a choice for a chance to reach for the stars? Embrace the impossible, for it is in the pursuit of the unimaginable that you discover your truest self, your deepest passion, and your most profound purpose. Let your dreams be your guiding stars, your North in a sea of uncertainty, and remember: nothing is impossible to those who dare to believe.

While we gear up to root for your favorite teams this March Madness season, it's time to pause and ponder what will lead you to success in your daily life. Have you set your thought bracket for March Madness? I am a sports girl, and boy do I love March Madness. Now, I'm not one who will spend time on gathering my teams and figuring out who I want to win, but I do know who I want to win. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! You can have a better life. But you have to be willing to put in the time, energy, and effort.  1. Practice Mindfulness: Take a pause in your day to observe your thoughts. Mindfulness meditation can help you become more aware of your thoughts and emotions, allowing you to choose positive ones. 2. Challenge Negative Thoughts: Just like teams face tough opponents, our minds often battle negative thoughts. Challenge them by replacing them with affirmations or thoughts of gratitude. 3. Visualize Success: Visualization techniques are powerful tools to create a positive mindset. Imagine yourself achieving your goals, and watch how it shapes your reality. In the words of legendary basketball coach John Wooden, “Make each day your masterpiece.” Your thoughts lay the foundation for that masterpiece. As Coach Mike Krzyzewski wisely puts it, “What you are thinking is what you are becoming.” So, aim high with your thought bracket, and witness the transformation in your life.

Change can be uncomfortable, and staying in familiar territory is easier. But what if you said yes? Sometimes saying yes to something new can lead to growth and strengthening the bond with your partner. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    If you really stop and think about it, a thriving marriage is the foundation to an incredible life; a story you get to write every day. But, unfortunately, we hang out too long in our comfort zones; the pain that straps us to the chair of conflict, the hurt that divides our hearts; the anger that repels the opportunity for emotional healing. Where are you in crossing the road in your marriage? Are you the one standing on one side, just watching as everything goes by? Are you the one standing on that same side struggling to get across quickly so you can move on? Or are you the one who is standing on one side, looking side to side, strategizing when it's the best time to cross to get to the other side? Depending on the season you're in, you're the one who is complacent and waiting for life to happen to you. Or you might be in the season of rush just wanting to get it done, whatever it is. Or-- you might be in that season where what matters is your reason. The K.I.S.S. ~ What if you said yes! Stop playing the mind games. Stop dragging your feet trying to convince yourself of your next step. Just ask, "What if I said yes?" What if I was willing to put in the work? What if I found a coach or counselor that understood my position and not only helped me, but in doing so, impacted my marriage and family. What if I said yes? Here are three things a spouse can do to consider taking the next step toward a better marriage: 1. Communicate openly: Start by having an honest conversation with yourself first! Then, invite a trusted confidant to listen to where you are. Finally, when the time is right, you can invite your spouse into the conversation and share your concerns, desires, and fears. By opening up about where you stand and listening to all sides and directions, you can gain clarity and understanding. Remember, communication is key in any relationship. 2. Take a Chance: We can do everything right in our heads, but what about our actions? So take that chance to do what's right in this season. Now, don't do it haphazardly. Use your head and your heart, and with well thought out guidance. In other words, kick anger to the curb, don't take anger with you. Anger is not your decision-maker. 3. Create a New Butt Print: In other words, step out of your comfort zone. Embracing change often requires taking risks. Don't be afraid to try new activities, make compromises, or invest time and effort into improving your relationship. Keep in mind that growth rarely happens within the confines of your comfort zone. As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "A risk taken is only a risk if it fails. Otherwise, it's wisdom in motion." Embrace the unknown and trust that taking steps towards positive change can lead to a brighter future for yourself, with your spouse, and for your family. Remember, love is an ongoing journey that requires effort, commitment, and the willingness to evolve together. Don't let fear hold you back from saying yes to a happier, healthier marriage.

It requires a delicate balance of nurturing guidance, respect, and establishing crucial boundaries. How are you guiding your child? As a parent, you may often face the challenge of watching your child make decisions that deviate from what you know is best for them. While it's natural for children to test their wings and assert their independence, guiding them toward making wise choices and understanding the importance of boundaries is essential. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Author and parenting expert Dr. Haim Ginott said, "Children are like wet cement; whatever falls on them makes an impression." This quote succinctly captures the profound impact that parental guidance and boundaries can have on shaping children's character and behavior. By establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries, parents can instill values, foster self-discipline, and cultivate respect in their children. Another insightful quote comes from Brene Brown, a renowned researcher and author, who stated, "Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind." This emphasizes the importance of clear communication and setting expectations with children regarding boundaries. Parents can help children understand the importance of respect and accountability by clearly defining boundaries and the consequences of crossing them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish boundaries that protect your child! As a parent myself, I believe that establishing boundaries with children is not about control but about creating a safe and nurturing environment for growth and development. Here are three key strategies to help parents effectively establish boundaries while respecting their child’s autonomy: 1. Consistent Communication: Engage in open and honest discussions with your child about the importance of boundaries. Explain why certain rules exist and allow them to express their thoughts and feelings. By fostering open communication, you can create a mutual understanding and respect for boundaries. 2. Lead by Example: Children learn by observing their parents' behavior. Model the boundaries and values you wish to instill in your child through your own actions and decisions. Show respect towards others, uphold your commitments, and demonstrate the importance of self-discipline. 3. Encourage Independence: While setting boundaries is crucial, giving your child room to make choices and learn from their experiences is essential. Encourage independence by allowing them to make age-appropriate decisions and supporting them in taking responsibility for their actions. Establishing boundaries with your child is a cornerstone of effective parenting. By setting clear expectations, fostering open communication, and leading by example, parents can cultivate a supportive environment that promotes growth and self-awareness in their children.

It requires a delicate balance of nurturing guidance, respect, and establishing crucial boundaries. How are you guiding your child? As a parent, you may often face the challenge of watching your child make decisions that deviate from what you know is best for them. While it's natural for children to test their wings and assert their independence, guiding them toward making wise choices and understanding the importance of boundaries is essential. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Author and parenting expert Dr. Haim Ginott said, "Children are like wet cement; whatever falls on them makes an impression." This quote succinctly captures the profound impact that parental guidance and boundaries can have on shaping children's character and behavior. By establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries, parents can instill values, foster self-discipline, and cultivate respect in their children. Another insightful quote comes from Brene Brown, a renowned researcher and author, who stated, "Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind." This emphasizes the importance of clear communication and setting expectations with children regarding boundaries. Parents can help children understand the importance of respect and accountability by clearly defining boundaries and the consequences of crossing them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish boundaries that protect your child! As a parent myself, I believe that establishing boundaries with children is not about control but about creating a safe and nurturing environment for growth and development. Here are three key strategies to help parents effectively establish boundaries while respecting their child’s autonomy: 1. Consistent Communication: Engage in open and honest discussions with your child about the importance of boundaries. Explain why certain rules exist and allow them to express their thoughts and feelings. By fostering open communication, you can create a mutual understanding and respect for boundaries. 2. Lead by Example: Children learn by observing their parents' behavior. Model the boundaries and values you wish to instill in your child through your own actions and decisions. Show respect towards others, uphold your commitments, and demonstrate the importance of self-discipline. 3. Encourage Independence: While setting boundaries is crucial, giving your child room to make choices and learn from their experiences is essential. Encourage independence by allowing them to make age-appropriate decisions and supporting them in taking responsibility for their actions. Establishing boundaries with your child is a cornerstone of effective parenting. By setting clear expectations, fostering open communication, and leading by example, parents can cultivate a supportive environment that promotes growth and self-awareness in their children. Remember, boundaries are not limitations but safeguards that nurture respect, autonomy, and personal development.

Lewis once said, "You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending." You can thread a day of hope using your challenges not as barriers, but as stepping stones. Unfortunately, obstacles often present themselves as roadblocks, testing our resilience and resolve. It's easy to let past hardships color our present circumstances, clouding our vision of what lies ahead. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Your past does not dictate your future; it merely shapes the path you walk today." Embrace each moment as a chance to redefine your narrative, to learn, grow, and be who you are becoming. Remember, every step you take today lays the foundation for a brighter tomorrow. As you face challenges old and new, may you find comfort in the knowledge that each obstacle is but a stitch in the larger tapestry of your woven life. So embrace the journey, embrace the unknown, and may your resilience shine through as you pivot and pave the way for a future filled with endless possibilities. Keep moving forward.

Is being healthy worth it? With the endless cycle of work, responsibilities, and commitments, the question arises: Is being healthy really worth it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Does the effort to eat well, exercise frequently, and sleep more truly impact our lives and longevity? Let's delve into the world of health and wellness to uncover the truth behind these questions. Research overwhelmingly supports the idea that healthy living significantly impacts not only our physical well-being but also our mental health and overall quality of life. According to a study published in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, individuals who engage in regular exercise have up to a 50% reduced risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancers. Moreover, proper nutrition plays a pivotal role in maintaining a healthy weight and reducing the risk of obesity-related conditions. One crucial aspect of healthy living that is often overlooked is the profound impact it has on our longevity. A study conducted by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health revealed that individuals who adhere to a healthy lifestyle - characterized by a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and adequate sleep - are up to 50% more likely to live longer than those who neglect these practices. Maybe the question really should be: What is the quality of life you desire? The K.I.S.S. ~ Define your quality of life! To make the right decision towards embracing a healthier lifestyle, consider the following three key actions: 1. What matters to you beyond a number? Start small: Begin by incorporating small changes into your daily routine, such as opting for a salad instead of fries or taking a brisk walk during lunch breaks. These minor adjustments can gradually lead to more significant improvements in your overall health. 2. Where do you need to begin your health journey? Set Realistic Goals: Establish attainable goals that align with your personal preferences and lifestyle. Whether it's committing to a certain number of workouts per week or gradually reducing sugar intake, setting achievable targets will help you stay motivated and track your progress. 3. Who can you surround yourself with that benefits your quality of life? Seek Support: Surround yourself with individuals who share similar health goals and aspirations. Joining fitness classes, engaging in group activities, or seeking guidance from a healthcare professional can provide the encouragement and accountability needed to stay committed to a healthy lifestyle. In the words of renowned nutritionist and wellness expert, Joy Bauer, "Healthy living is not about perfection, but progress." By taking proactive steps towards prioritizing your health and well-being, you are investing in a future filled with vitality, resilience, and longevity. Remember, the journey to a healthier you begins with a single step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace the power of choice and embark on a transformative path toward a vibrant and fulfilling life. The decision to prioritize your health is a gift that keeps on giving - both in the present moment and for years to come.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Start small: Begin by incorporating small changes into your daily routine, such as opting for a salad instead of fries or taking a brisk walk during lunch breaks. These minor adjustments can gradually lead to more significant improvements in your overall health. 2. Where do you need to begin your health journey? Set Realistic Goals: Establish attainable goals that align with your personal preferences and lifestyle. Whether it's committing to a certain number of workouts per week or gradually reducing sugar intake, setting achievable targets will help you stay motivated and track your progress. 3. Who can you surround yourself with that benefits your quality of life? Seek Support: Surround yourself with individuals who share similar health goals and aspirations. Joining fitness classes, engaging in group activities, or seeking guidance from a healthcare professional can provide the encouragement and accountability needed to stay committed to a healthy lifestyle. In the words of renowned nutritionist and wellness expert, Joy Bauer, "Healthy living is not about perfection, but progress." By taking proactive steps towards prioritizing your health and well-being, you are investing in a future filled with vitality, resilience, and longevity. Remember, the journey to a healthier you begins with a single step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace the power of choice and embark on a transformative path toward a vibrant and fulfilling life. The decision to prioritize your health is a gift that keeps on giving - both in the present moment and for years to come.   "Be present. Be incredible.

In our hectic lives filled with routines and familiarity, stepping out of our comfort zones to make changes can feel daunting.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The K.I.S.S. ~ Take A.I.M.! Three Things You Can Do to Embrace Change: 1. Embrace New Skills: This comes down to personal growth. Self-improvement is a journey that requires dedication and perseverance. By stepping out of your comfort zone and acquiring new skills or knowledge, you are investing in your future success. As Tony Robbins said, "If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten." 2. Set Clear Goals: Define your aspirations and outline a roadmap to achieve them. Without a clear vision of where you want to go, it's easy to get lost in the daily grind. By setting specific, measurable goals, you can track your progress and stay motivated. To quote Lewis Carroll, "If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there." 3. Embrace Resilience: Change is not always easy, and setbacks are inevitable. However, it's essential to cultivate resilience and adaptability in the face of challenges. As Kristianne Wargo aptly puts it, "Strength is not measured by how much you can take, but by how much you can surrender." Embrace resilience as a tool to overcome obstacles and keep moving forward. Remember, the choices you make today will shape the tomorrow you desire. Embrace change, set goals, and cultivate resilience to prepare for a brighter future.

The desire for control can hold you back from your purpose. Have you ever thought of God's gotta gripe with your grip? Because it may make you feel good to meticulously plan your schedule to meticulously curate your social media persona. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Unfortunately, we do really like control, especially when we have no control over what happens to us in our every day. But the thing is this. What happens when this desire for control becomes a barrier to your relationship with God? Maybe you haven't even given it a second thought. Who would think God would care about our desire to control? Well, God does care. He desires for you to walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). And in doing so, that's when we truly comprehend how to trust in Him. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 You see, control is the barrier between you and surrendering to what God desires for you. Do you really want to get in the way of what God has for you? Because if you keep holding on tight to what you want, you won't be able to see what God wants for you. The K.I.S.S. ~ God's gotta gripe with your grip! So, at some point, you must relinquish control and let go of what's not yours to hold onto. Your divine path can only be realized if you let God lead you. With Easter around the corner and us in the season of Lent, I can't help but think of Galatians 2:20. Galatians 2:20: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." You accepting Jesus Christ as your risen Lord and Savior opens up the doors of what's possible. Because with God, nothing is impossible (Mark 10:27). But there is one thing that will stand in your way: control.  God's gotta gripe with your grip. So when are you going to let go? When are you going to see what He is creating for you? What time of day will you meet Him face to face to understand His plans, not yours? How are you going to lead your life well, if you don't let God in? God's gotta gripe with your grip.  Set your mind on things above, not earthly things (Colossians 3:2). Find peace that passes all understanding not in what you know, but in whose you are. God loves you! Let Him lead the way, so you can live, love, and impact!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🎥 Karen Kingsbury Productions Presents <a href="https://someonelikeyou.movie" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Someone Like You.movie</a> 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The desire for control can hold you back from your purpose. Have you ever thought of God's gotta gripe with your grip? Because it may make you feel good to meticulously plan your schedule to meticulously curate your social media persona. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Unfortunately, we do really like control, especially when we have no control over what happens to us in our every day. But the thing is this. What happens when this desire for control becomes a barrier to your relationship with God? Maybe you haven't even given it a second thought. Who would think God would care about our desire to control? Well, God does care. He desires for you to walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). And in doing so, that's when we truly comprehend how to trust in Him. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 You see, control is the barrier between you and surrendering to what God desires for you. Do you really want to get in the way of what God has for you? Because if you keep holding on tight to what you want, you won't be able to see what God wants for you. The K.I.S.S. ~ God's gotta gripe with your grip! So, at some point, you must relinquish control and let go of what's not yours to hold onto. Your divine path can only be realized if you let God lead you. With Easter around the corner and us in the season of Lent, I can't help but think of Galatians 2:20. Galatians 2:20: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." You accepting Jesus Christ as your risen Lord and Savior opens up the doors of what's possible. Because with God, nothing is impossible (Mark 10:27). But there is one thing that will stand in your way: control.  God's gotta gripe with your grip. So when are you going to let go? When are you going to see what He is creating for you? What time of day will you meet Him face to face to understand His plans, not yours? How are you going to lead your life well, if you don't let God in? God's gotta gripe with your grip.  Set your mind on things above, not earthly things (Colossians 3:2). Find peace that passes all understanding not in what you know, but in whose you are. God loves you! Let Him lead the way, so you can live, love, and impact!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what happens when you both are ready for a fresh start? How can you move from mundane to magic in your marriage? It's time to recapture the love and appreciation that brought you together in the first place. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Why did you fall in love with your spouse in the first place? What made you light up when you saw him? How did you see you all as a couple in your dreams? Where did you see yourself going together as a couple? It's up to you and your spouse to continually keep the spark alive. Are you a willing participant? Or would you rather be lazy? The K.I.S.S. ~ Ready yourself for a fresh start! One way to begin this journey is through open and honest communication. Take the time to express your feelings, concerns, and desires to your partner. This can help create a deeper understanding and connection between you both. As relationship expert John Gottman once said, "Couples who can talk about their feelings, needs, and desires in a respectful way will have a stronger bond." Another essential step is to prioritize quality time together. In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy to let time slip away without truly connecting with your spouse. Make an effort to carve out moments for meaningful conversations, laughter, and shared experiences. As author Mignon McLaughlin once wrote, "A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person." Lastly, practicing gratitude can work wonders in rediscovering the beauty of your relationship. Take a moment each day to appreciate the little things your partner does, whether it's making you a cup of coffee in the morning or sending you a sweet text during the day. Gratitude can shift your perspective and foster a sense of warmth and closeness within your marriage. As Kristianne Wargo wisely said, "Gratitude is the key that unlocks a heart of love and appreciation." Remember, a fresh start in your marriage is possible when both partners are committed to making positive changes and nurturing their bond. By communicating openly, prioritizing quality time, and practicing gratitude, you can reignite the spark and rediscover the joy of being in love.

Learn how to help your child dream so they can step into a bright future. According to a recent study by Child Mind Institute, over 60% of children aged 6-12 spend less than an hour a day engaging in creative play or dreaming about their future. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In a society driven by instant gratification and constant stimulation, it's crucial for parents to take proactive steps to nurture their child's ability to dream and envision a bright future. Renowned psychologist Dr. Lisa Damour emphasizes the importance of fostering a child's imagination, stating, "Dreaming allows children to tap into their creativity and explore endless possibilities. It's a crucial part of their cognitive development and helps shape their aspirations and goals for the future." The K.I.S.S. ~ Dream a little dream! To help your child dream and unleash their potential, here are three simple yet powerful strategies: 1. Encourage Exploration: Provide your child with diverse experiences and opportunities to explore different interests. Whether it's signing them up for art classes, taking them on nature hikes, or visiting museums, exposing them to new and exciting experiences can ignite their curiosity and spark their imagination. 2. Foster a Safe Space for Creativity: Create a nurturing environment at home where your child feels free to dream and express themselves. Encourage open communication, active listening, and praise their ideas and creations. This safe space will empower them to think outside the box and dream big without fear of judgment. 3. Lead by Example: Show your child the value of dreaming and setting goals by sharing your own aspirations and achievements. Engage in imaginative play together, read inspiring stories, and discuss future plans as a family. By modeling a positive attitude towards dreaming, you instill a sense of hope and possibility in your child's mindset. In the words of parenting expert Kristianne Wargo, "Dreaming is not just for bedtime; it's a powerful tool to shape your child's future." By cultivating a culture of dreaming in your household, you equip your child with the essential skills of creativity, resilience, and ambition that will guide them towards a fulfilling and purposeful life. Remember, a child's dreams are the seeds of their future success. Nurture them with care, and watch them bloom into bountiful blessings.   "Be present. Be incredible.

By modeling a positive attitude towards dreaming, you instill a sense of hope and possibility in your child's mindset. In the words of parenting expert Kristianne Wargo, "Dreaming is not just for bedtime; it's a powerful tool to shape your child's future." By cultivating a culture of dreaming in your household, you equip your child with the essential skills of creativity, resilience, and ambition that will guide them towards a fulfilling and purposeful life. Remember, a child's dreams are the seeds of their future success. Nurture them with care, and watch them bloom into bountiful blessings.   "Be present. Be incredible.

In these moments of uncertainty and doubt, the true power of hope shines brightest. Follow your hopes, not your fears. In a chaotic and unpredictable world, it's easy to get weighed down by disappointments and delays. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's important not to let setbacks define us, but rather to focus on what we can control and the potential that lies ahead. As author Roy T. Bennett wisely once said, "Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart." These words serve as a powerful reminder that our dreams and aspirations should guide us, not our fears and doubts. No matter how tough the journey may seem, giving up is never the answer. You must persevere, you must keep moving forward, for it is in those moments of resilience that you discover your true strength. The K.I.S.S. ~ Follow your hopes, not your fears! "Life isn't perfect, but it is beautiful." ~ Kristianne Wargo Each day is a gift, filled with endless possibilities and opportunities for growth. Even when the path ahead seems uncertain, there is always a chance to create something extraordinary out of the ordinary. Embrace the imperfections, for they are what make life truly remarkable. As you navigate through the highs and lows of life, remember the words of poet Emily Dickinson, "Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all." Hope is a constant companion, a reassuring presence that whispers brighter days ahead. It is the light that guides you through the darkest of nights, illuminating your path with possibility and promise. So, amidst the trials and tribulations, hold onto hope with unwavering faith. Focus on the beauty in the brokenness, the strength in the struggle, and the light in the darkness. For in the end, it is your hope that will lead you to a future filled with endless potential and boundless joy.  Hope is the anchor that keeps you steady in the storm, the beacon that lights your way in the darkest of nights. Today, tomorrow, and always, follow your hopes, not your fears.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It also involves nurturing your heart holistically - physically, mentally, and emotionally. Learn how to care for your heart and soar! When facing challenges, it puts undeniable stress on you physically, mentally, and emotionally. Your well-being matters in your overall health. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But who's thinking about that in the morning? Most of the time, your weight and wrinkles get more attention. However, you have to consider your overall well-being. Along with having discussions with your physician/medical provider for your physical health, have conversations about your mental health, too. The K.I.S.S. ~ Care for your heart holistically!   1. Eat and Exercise Well: Consuming a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while staying physically active is essential for heart health. According to Dr. Rita Redberg, a cardiologist, "Eating a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats is good for the heart." 2. Meditate Always: Incorporate meditation and mindfulness practices into your daily routine can significantly reduce stress levels and improve cardiovascular health. As Professor John Teasdale once said, "Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment." 3. Reflect Often: Taking time to reflect on emotions, thoughts, and experiences can help you understand yourself better and promote emotional well-being. Reflective journaling or sitting quietly to process your feelings can be powerful tools for heart care. As Kristianne Wargo wisely stated, "Life is not what it presents you, but what you present to yourself in life." In the words of renowned motivational speaker Tony Robbins, "The quality of your life is the quality of your emotions." By nourishing our hearts through healthy habits, mindfulness, and self-reflection, you can cultivate a resilient spirit that propels you forward even in the face of adversity. So, commit to caring for your heart - physically, emotionally, and spiritually - to live your best selfie. The best is yet to come! Remember, taking care of your heart is a holistic endeavor; it's not just about the physical aspect but also the emotional and spiritual aspects of your well-being.

In moments of uncertainty, dare to live on the edge. "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone," once said Neale Donald Walsch, and truer words have never been spoken. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It is where we find the courage and strength to reach for the stars and make our wildest dreams a reality. "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful," shared Albert Schweitzer. This sentiment echoes the importance of following our passions and taking risks in pursuit of what truly makes us come alive. It is in those moments of fear and uncertainty that we often find our greatest joys. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live on the edge! As Kristianne Wargo said, "Embrace the unknown, for it holds the key to your wildest dreams." It is in the unknown territories of risk-taking that you find the magic of possibilities unfolding before you. When you dare to live on the edge, you open yourself up to a world of endless opportunities and extraordinary experiences. So, as you navigate your journey towards your dreams and goals, remember to embrace the risks that come your way. For it is in those moments of uncertainty and fear that you will discover the true depth of your potential and the limitless possibilities that await you on the edge of greatness.

In moments of uncertainty, dare to live on the edge. "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone," once said Neale Donald Walsch, and truer words have never been spoken. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Stepping outside of what feels safe and familiar is where growth begins. It is where we find the courage and strength to reach for the stars and make our wildest dreams a reality. "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful," shared Albert Schweitzer. This sentiment echoes the importance of following our passions and taking risks in pursuit of what truly makes us come alive. It is in those moments of fear and uncertainty that we often find our greatest joys. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live on the edge! As Kristianne Wargo said, "Embrace the unknown, for it holds the key to your wildest dreams." It is in the unknown territories of risk-taking that you find the magic of possibilities unfolding before you. When you dare to live on the edge, you open yourself up to a world of endless opportunities and extraordinary experiences. So, as you navigate your journey towards your dreams and goals, remember to embrace the risks that come your way. For it is in those moments of uncertainty and fear that you will discover the true depth of your potential and the limitless possibilities that await you on the edge of greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Empower your inner dialogue. Words have power. And that power applies to yourself too. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    For whatever reason, people think that it's the words that are only spoken. But the ones that are said inside your head have a greater impact. According to research conducted by the National Science Foundation, the average person has about 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day. Of those, 80% are negative and 95% are repetitive thoughts from the previous day. This statistic highlights the significant impact our thoughts and internal dialogue have on our mental well-being and overall outlook on life. Transforming negative self-talk into positive affirmations can lead to improved self-esteem, reduced stress levels, and increased mental resilience. But that means you have to intentionally think on a different level. What would it mean to hear only uplifting and positive things in your own head? Would that change how you look at your day? If you want to have a better attitude and overall well-being, engage in positive conversation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Engage in positive conversation! What you say matters. And what you think about, you bring about. 1. Practice self-compassion. Instead of berating yourself for mistakes or flaws, treat yourself with kindness and understanding. Speak to yourself with the same compassion you would offer a friend facing a difficult situation. When you make a mistake, acknowledge it without judgment, and remind yourself that everyone is imperfect. Incorporate this into your daily routine by starting each morning with a positive affirmation, such as "I am deserving of love and respect." 2. Engage in positive self-affirmations. Use uplifting phrases to reinforce your self-worth and capabilities. Remind yourself of your strengths and talents, focusing on what makes you unique and special. Incorporate these affirmations into your daily life by repeating them during moments of self-doubt or anxiety. For example, if you are feeling overwhelmed at work, silently affirm, "I am competent and able to handle any challenge that comes my way." 3. Practice gratitude towards yourself. Recognize and appreciate the efforts you make, no matter how small they may seem. Acknowledge your achievements and progress, celebrating even the tiniest victories. By expressing gratitude towards yourself, you cultivate a sense of self-worth and confidence. Incorporate this practice into your daily routine by keeping a gratitude journal, listing three things you are grateful for about yourself each day. Remember, the way you speak to yourself matters. By incorporating self-compassion, positive affirmations, and gratitude into your inner dialogue, you can transform your self-talk from negative to empowering.

From careers to relationships, you meticulously plan and strategize in the hopes of steering your life in the direction you desire.  However, the very thing holding you back from fulfilling your true potential is your own reluctance to step out of your comfort zone and trust in God's ultimate plan for you. But are you a willing participant? Are you ready to follow where God is leading? The K.I.S.S. ~ The Lord establishes your steps! It is human nature to resist change and hold on to familiarity, even when we sense a divine calling pushing us towards something greater. We question, we doubt, we resist, all the while forgetting that God's hand is gently nudging us toward our purpose. Instead of continually fighting against the currents of fate, you are called to surrender to God's will, for His plans for you far surpass your own limited vision. Every twist and turn, every obstacle and victory, is carefully orchestrated by a higher power that knows you better than you know yourself. But are you listening? Are you watching for those God winks? In those moments of uncertainty and fear, let us release our grip on control and trust in the divine guidance that leads us toward our true calling. In relinquishing your need for control, you open yourself up to a world of endless possibilities and unforeseen blessings. So today, as you navigate the intricate dance of life, remember the profound truth of Proverbs 16:9, "In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps." Embrace the unknown, trust in God's plan, and allow your steps to be guided by the hand of a loving Creator who knows the desires of your heart better than you ever could.   "Be present.

For most, it's a product of busyness. You think (or assume) you're connected and in sync only to discover you are on different pages in different seasons. It's no wonder the drift is real. However, you don't have to live a marriage that seems to be put on hold or nonexistent. It's time to reignite the spark. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reignite the spark! The key to reigniting the spark lies internally with intentional actions. Think about this. What would it be like to live a life without hope? You can take to breathe new life into your marriage. 1. Communicate in Love: Often, the root of marital discord stems from a lack of open and honest communication. Take the time to sit down with your partner and truly listen to their thoughts and feelings. Validate their emotions and share your own in a safe and non-judgmental space. As Maya Angelou wisely said, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." 2. Spend Time Together: In the midst of our hectic schedules, carving out quality time for your partner is essential. Whether it's a weekly date night, a weekend getaway, or simply unplugging from technology to connect on a deeper level, investing in shared experiences can reignite the passion and intimacy in your marriage. As author Mignon McLaughlin once said, "A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person." 3. Look at YOU: Sometimes, enhancing your marriage begins with working on yourself. Take the time to reflect on your own behaviors, attitudes, and communication styles. Strive towards personal growth through self-improvement practices such as mindfulness, self-care, or individual therapy. As renowned psychologist Carl Jung once said, "Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes." Remember, hope is not lost in a struggling marriage. By taking proactive steps, nurturing your connection, and practicing empathy and understanding, you can breathe new life into your marriage and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's a rollercoaster of emotions that can leave you feeling drained and questioning your abilities. Amidst the chaos and the mess, it's important to remember that you are doing an incredible job. Your efforts may go unnoticed, but they are shaping the future of your children in ways you cannot imagine. So, for those moments when you're feeling worn out and on the verge of giving up, keep on keeping on. The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep on keeping on! 1.

Take a moment to celebrate the small wins - whether it's getting through a hectic morning routine without any meltdowns or finally teaching your toddler to tie their shoelaces. "Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things." - Robert Brault 2. Measure the Moments: Getting all bent out of shape for everything is going to leave you exhausted and worn out. So stay in the present and measure the moment for what it is. No more. No less. Just right. 3. Respect What You Know: You know what is best for your child. So don't underestimate what you know. Be confident that you are a mom on a mission caring for your child as they need it. But at the same time, don't be afraid or hesitant to ask for help. Parenting is a tough job, but it's also the most rewarding one. Remember that it's okay to have tough days and moments of doubt. Keep on keeping on, for your children are watching and learning from your resilience, strength, and love. Keep shining, mom (and dad), you're doing amazing!   "Be present. Be incredible.

You're not alone. Low energy levels can disrupt your daily life and leave you feeling fatigued. It's time to add those easy solutions for low energy into your every day. The good news is, there are simple ways to revitalize yourself while resting. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Here are three effective strategies to help you restore your energy levels effortlessly. The K.I.S.S. ~ REstore your energy! 1. Power Nap Revival: A short power nap can work wonders in boosting your energy and focus. Find a quiet, comfortable spot to lie down, set a timer for 20-30 minutes, and allow yourself to drift off into a restful slumber. This brief break can recharge your mind and body, leaving you feeling refreshed and ready to take on the rest of your day. 2. Mindful Meditation Break: Take a few minutes to engage in a mindfulness meditation session. Find a peaceful corner, sit comfortably, close your eyes, and focus on your breath. Inhale deeply through your nose, exhale slowly through your mouth, and let go of any tension or stress. This practice can help calm your mind, reduce fatigue, and provide a natural energy boost to carry you through the day. 3. Hydration Station: Dehydration can zap your energy levels and leave you feeling sluggish. Keep a water bottle handy and sip on it throughout the day to stay hydrated. For an extra energy kick, try infusing your water with slices of citrus fruits like lemon or orange, or add a splash of coconut water for electrolyte replenishment. Proper hydration is key to maintaining optimal energy levels and overall well-being. Kristianne Wargo says, "Restoring your energy doesn't have to be complicated. By incorporating simple rest and revitalization techniques into your daily routine, you can feel more energized and rejuvenated, ready to tackle whatever comes your way." Next time you're feeling worn out, try these easy solutions to revitalize yourself and reclaim your energy. Remember, taking care of yourself is the first step towards a healthier, more energetic you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul." ~ Psalm 23:1-2 (NIV) In the midst of life's chaos and uncertainties, finding rest and peace can feel like an elusive dream. The demands of work, family, and responsibilities can leave us feeling drained and overwhelmed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This exquisite imagery of a shepherd tenderly caring for his sheep resonates deeply with the human soul. It speaks of a relationship of trust and guidance, where the Shepherd, our God, ensures that we lack nothing. Just as a shepherd provides for and protects his flock, God takes care of our every need and leads us to places of rest and peace. The image of lying down in green pastures evokes a sense of tranquility and abundance. It symbolizes a space of rest and nourishment where our souls can find solace and renewal. In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to forget to pause, to breathe, to rest. Yet, God, our Shepherd, invites us to rest in His provision, to trust in His care. The K.I.S.S. ~ He refreshes my soul! Moreover, the mention of being led beside quiet waters brings to mind a sense of calm and serenity. The gentle flow of the waters mirrors the ebb and flow of God's grace in our lives. It is in these moments of stillness that we can hear His voice, feel His presence, and be rejuvenated in our spirits. In a world that often feels out of control, the reminder that God is in charge, that He shepherds us with love and care, is a balm to our weary souls. Psalm 23:1-2 reassures us that we can find rest in Him, knowing that He leads us to places of peace and restoration. As we navigate the challenges and trials of life, may we find comfort in the promise of Psalm 23:1-2. May we trust in the Shepherd who guides us, rests with us, and refreshes our souls. Let us rest in the assurance that God is in control, and in His hands, we lack nothing.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Can you feel the love tonight? We yearn for a connection that goes beyond the physical and dives into the realm of true emotional and sexual fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What is your love life like? Are you getting what you want physically and emotionally? And most of the time, we don't stop long enough to think about whether we are getting "fulfilled" until it comes to that "moment." But what can we do to nurture our relationship and create an atmosphere of love that may naturally lead to greater intimacy? The K.I.S.S. ~ Know the heart more! And this comes with words, actions, and the emotional connection. Words have the power to heal, inspire, and ignite passion. Expressing our love through verbal communication is crucial to creating a stronger emotional bond with our spouse. Simple words of affirmation and praise can go a long way in making them feel loved and appreciated. Open communication is significant in building marital intimacy. Start small, perhaps with a compliment or a genuine 'thank you,' to convey your love and gratitude. These simple gestures can lay a strong foundation for deeper emotional connection and, ultimately, greater intimacy. Actions, on the other hand, speak louder than words. Our daily actions can profoundly impact our spouse's perception of our love and dedication. Small acts of kindness, such as making their favorite coffee in the morning or offering a foot massage after a long day, can demonstrate your commitment to their happiness and well-being. By actively seeking opportunities to be thoughtful and supportive, we cultivate an environment of love and care, paving the way for a more connected and intimate relationship. One important aspect to remember is that intimacy doesn't solely revolve around physical affection or sexual encounters. Emotional intimacy plays a significant role in creating a deeper connection with our spouse. Taking time to really listen, empathize, and engage in meaningful conversations can foster a profound sense of closeness. Emotionally connecting with your spouse can lead to a greater understanding of one another's desires and needs, ultimately enhancing your relationship's physical aspect. Incorporating a love language into your daily interactions can also help bridge the emotional gap and stimulate greater intimacy. Dr. Gary Chapman, renowned relationships expert and author of "The 5 Love Languages," emphasizes the importance of understanding our partner's love language. By identifying and catering to their specific needs, whether it's acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or receiving gifts, we can effectively communicate our love and promote intimacy in a way that resonates deeply with our spouse. Ultimately, earning and nurturing intimacy requires a combination of words, actions, and emotional connection. By consistently expressing our love, showing appreciation for our spouse, and actively engaging in their emotional world, we can create an atmosphere of love that naturally leads to greater intimacy. As we continue on this journey of love and growth, let us remember that intimacy is not something to be earned or obtained. Instead, it is a beautiful byproduct of a healthy and thriving relationship built on a solid foundation of love, respect, and open communication.

Can you feel the love tonight? We yearn for a connection that goes beyond the physical and dives into the realm of true emotional and sexual fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What is your love life like? Are you getting what you want physically and emotionally? And most of the time, we don't stop long enough to think about whether we are getting "fulfilled" until it comes to that "moment." But what can we do to nurture our relationship and create an atmosphere of love that may naturally lead to greater intimacy? The K.I.S.S. ~ Know the heart more! And this comes with words, actions, and the emotional connection. Words have the power to heal, inspire, and ignite passion. Expressing our love through verbal communication is crucial to creating a stronger emotional bond with our spouse. Simple words of affirmation and praise can go a long way in making them feel loved and appreciated. Open communication is significant in building marital intimacy. Start small, perhaps with a compliment or a genuine 'thank you,' to convey your love and gratitude. These simple gestures can lay a strong foundation for deeper emotional connection and, ultimately, greater intimacy. Actions, on the other hand, speak louder than words. Our daily actions can profoundly impact our spouse's perception of our love and dedication. Small acts of kindness, such as making their favorite coffee in the morning or offering a foot massage after a long day, can demonstrate your commitment to their happiness and well-being. By actively seeking opportunities to be thoughtful and supportive, we cultivate an environment of love and care, paving the way for a more connected and intimate relationship. One important aspect to remember is that intimacy doesn't solely revolve around physical affection or sexual encounters. Emotional intimacy plays a significant role in creating a deeper connection with our spouse. Taking time to really listen, empathize, and engage in meaningful conversations can foster a profound sense of closeness. Emotionally connecting with your spouse can lead to a greater understanding of one another's desires and needs, ultimately enhancing your relationship's physical aspect. Incorporating a love language into your daily interactions can also help bridge the emotional gap and stimulate greater intimacy. Dr. Gary Chapman, renowned relationships expert and author of "The 5 Love Languages," emphasizes the importance of understanding our partner's love language. By identifying and catering to their specific needs, whether it's acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or receiving gifts, we can effectively communicate our love and promote intimacy in a way that resonates deeply with our spouse. Ultimately, earning and nurturing intimacy requires a combination of words, actions, and emotional connection. By consistently expressing our love, showing appreciation for our spouse, and actively engaging in their emotional world, we can create an atmosphere of love that naturally leads to greater intimacy. As we continue on this journey of love and growth, let us remember that intimacy is not something to be earned or obtained. Instead, it is a beautiful byproduct of a healthy and thriving relationship built on a solid foundation of love, respect, and open communication. So, take the time to speak words of love, demonstrate your affection through actions, and foster emotional connection— and you will undoubtedly feel the love tonight.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But fear not! You can find the calm in the chaos when you hear yourself yelling, "What's all the noise about?" There really is calm around the corner, literally and figuratively. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We have compiled three effective strategies that can help you regain control and bring harmony back to your family life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Harmonize with your words and actions! 1. Establish Routine "In times of chaos and uncertainty, routine provides a foundation of stability for children and parents alike," says Dr. Amanda Johnson, child psychologist. By establishing a daily routine, you provide your children with predictability, which reduces anxiety and improves behavior. Set specific bedtimes and wake-up times, allocate time for homework and chores, and incorporate regular family meals. Posting a visual schedule can also help children stay organized and understand what to expect each day. 2. Delegate and Share Responsibilities As parents, we often try to do it all ourselves. However, involving the entire family in managing household tasks not only lightens your load but also teaches children valuable life skills. Create a chore chart and assign age-appropriate tasks to each family member. This not only helps with the division of labor but also promotes teamwork and a sense of responsibility. Remember to express gratitude and praise for their efforts to encourage a positive atmosphere. 3. Care for Your Well-being As they say, you can't pour from an empty cup. Taking care of your own well-being is crucial in managing chaos. Carve out some "me time" every day to recharge and focus on activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading, taking a bubble bath, or practicing yoga. Prioritizing self-care isn't selfish; it's an essential component of being a patient and present parent. Managing chaos in the family is possible with the right strategies in place. Establishing a routine, involving the entire family in household responsibilities, and prioritizing self-care will help you regain control and create a harmonious environment for everyone. Remember, the key lies in consistency and open communication. By implementing these strategies, you'll find yourself equipped to manage the chaos and bring harmony back to your family life. So take a deep breath, and let the journey to a calmer home begin.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you flipped that? Goodbye, things! Less is more to live a life well-lived. Because unfortunately, we proudly wear our busy badge of honor, as if filling our lives with countless commitments and a surplus of stuff thinking that somehow it equates to success and fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if, deep down, we know that this constant busyness and clutter is holding us back from truly living a life well-lived? Renowned author and minimalist, Fumio Sasaki, once said, "Minimalism is about knowing my true needs, and saying goodbye to everything that doesn't serve me well." These words carry an important message - that in order to live a life of purpose and meaning, we must learn to let go of the excess and focus on what truly matters. Letting go of physical possessions can be a powerful act of liberation. It allows us to create space, both physically and mentally, for the things that truly bring us joy and fulfillment. As Marie Kondo, renowned decluttering expert and author, wisely advises, "The space in which we live should be for the person we are becoming now, not for the person we were in the past." The K.I.S.S. ~ Goodbye, things! But clutter isn't limited to just physical belongings. Our lives can become packed with overflowing schedules, endless to-do lists, and commitments that drain our energy and leave us feeling overwhelmed. It's important to recognize that our worth is not determined by how much we can fit into a day or how many tasks we can check off a list. Instead, our worth lies in our ability to be present, to connect with others, and to make a positive difference in the world. Melissa Camara Wilkins, author of "Permission Granted: Be Who You Were Made to Be and Let Go of the Rest," beautifully captures this sentiment when she says, "We can't build a meaningful life on mindless accumulation and constant busyness. To live a life that matters, we have to be willing to let go of what doesn't." Letting go can be daunting, but it opens up a world of possibilities. It allows us to free ourselves from the shackles of materialism and busyness, enabling us to make space for the things that truly light us up - whether that's pursuing a passion, spending quality time with loved ones, or engaging in activities that bring us peace and contentment. As you bid farewell to the unnecessary distractions and embrace a more simplified lifestyle, you take a stand for yourelf and your well-being. Create room for personal growth, self-reflection, and self-care. By letting go, you make a conscious choice to live with intention and purpose, cultivating a life that is centered around what truly matters to you. Today, let's take a moment to reflect on the things that may be cluttering your life and preventing you from living the life you truly desire. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!! Let's have the courage to say goodbye to what no longer serves us, so that we may create space for what truly matters. And when you do so, you not only serve yourself but also have the opportunity to serve others in a way that is authentic and true. It's palpable and real! Today, say a heartfelt goodbye-- "Goodbye, things!" that hold you back, and ready yourself to take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation! "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Melissa Camara Wilkins, author of "Permission Granted: Be Who You Were Made to Be and Let Go of the Rest," beautifully captures this sentiment when she says, "We can't build a meaningful life on mindless accumulation and constant busyness. To live a life that matters, we have to be willing to let go of what doesn't." Letting go can be daunting, but it opens up a world of possibilities. It allows us to free ourselves from the shackles of materialism and busyness, enabling us to make space for the things that truly light us up - whether that's pursuing a passion, spending quality time with loved ones, or engaging in activities that bring us peace and contentment. As you bid farewell to the unnecessary distractions and embrace a more simplified lifestyle, you take a stand for yourelf and your well-being. Create room for personal growth, self-reflection, and self-care. By letting go, you make a conscious choice to live with intention and purpose, cultivating a life that is centered around what truly matters to you. Today, let's take a moment to reflect on the things that may be cluttering your life and preventing you from living the life you truly desire. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!! Let's have the courage to say goodbye to what no longer serves us, so that we may create space for what truly matters. And when you do so, you not only serve yourself but also have the opportunity to serve others in a way that is authentic and true. It's palpable and real! Today, say a heartfelt goodbye-- "Goodbye, things!" that hold you back, and ready yourself to take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation! "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

On this Valentine's Day, count your blessings, not your burdens. Who do you see in the mirror? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Are you one who complains about your wrinkles? The laugh lines that won't go away? In fact, your frown lines become more pronounced when you look in the mirror. Why is that? Are you counting your burdens and not your blessings? You have one body and need to care for it in a way that no one else can. And speaking words of hurt and ugliness defeats the purpose of being kind. It defeats the purpose of loving yourself right where you're at. Now, you might be saying, "Kristianne, you just don't understand what I've been through. I've tried to lose weight for decades. I've tried to gain strength and flexibility. But I just can't get my body to do what it needs to do." I get it. Living a healthy life is not easy. It takes commitment on a daily basis, moment by moment. But you have to get in the game of life. You have got to stop the excuses and count your blessings, not your burdens. You get to see what you have, all the good your body does for you. So I want you to take a deep breath. This probably isn't something you've done on Valentine's Day before. Love yourself! The K.I.S.S. ~ Love yourself! You do this in a unique manner for yourself, not in a way that is prideful or to the detriment of others. It's to lift up who you are so you can experience the love God has for you in your every day. 1. Nurture Your Mind You do this by growing gratitude for your reflection, by speaking kind words to yourself when you look in the mirror, and smiling at who you are becoming. You might be struggling with where you are right now. You might want to be down 27 more pounds. But that doesn't make you less than because your weight is more than. Your conversation with yourself might sound like this. "Oh girl, look at you! You are going to conquer your day with attitude and beauty. Your eyes are going to see those who need your attention. Your smile is going to wake up hope in others. And your heart is going to lead your steps today!" Nurture your mind! 2. Nourish Your Body You do this by eating foods that feed your mind, body, and spirit with the goodness of vitamins and minerals, by intentionally moving your muscles and joints to gain strength and flexibility, and by sleeping so you have the energy to be a living legacy every day. New Year's resolutions are long gone, and the Super Bowl is over. But your life is here today! So treat your body well! This Valentine's Day, don't go get junk chocolate. Spend a couple of dollars more and get the good chocolate that has chocolate beans that help your body and are more beneficial.  Why put crap chemicals in your body? You are made for more. So treat your body well. Nourish it well! 3. Embrace Who You Are Becoming You might have a real battle with who you see in the mirror. Your reflection isn't who you remember or even who you want to see. But, my friend, you have to be kind to yourself before you can be kind to others. "Love your neighbor as yourself." ~ Mark 12:31 You have today to make a difference, to make an impact. So do it well by embracing who you are becoming. Celebrate what you do today because of who you were yesterday. You becoming one percent better every day makes room for growth in your mind, body, and spirit. You make choices every day. So let those choices exploit who you are becoming. This Valentine's Day, know that you are willing to make the choices that will change the trajectory of your every day so you can live a life well lived. This is showing your reflection in your heart the love and appreciation you deserve. You are made for more! "Wake up your heart and open your eyes to see the glory God put inside. Count your blessings, not your burdens. You were made to shine!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

The football game is over, but the journey of presence is now! Get out of your head! Imagine this: you're sitting at a picturesque café, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the air, and a gentle breeze tickling your skin. As the world around you buzzes with life, you find yourself lost in a sea of thoughts, worries, and regrets. Meanwhile, the beauty of the present moment slips through your fingers, unnoticed and forgotten. Sound familiar? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Oftentimes, we live a foggy life with little thought for our next actions because all we do is react to the stimuli in front of us. We habitually place one foot in front of the other, even to the point where a trip over a step becomes just part of the day.  Life is too precious! You were created on purpose, for a purpose, here on earth and in Heaven. So whether your team won the Super Bowl or you're sitting back wishing that the coach called a different play or the Ref called a missed penalty, you've got today to make it count. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make it count! "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present." - Kristianne Wargo In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of thoughts, worries, and distractions that constantly flood our minds. Maybe you've found youself daydreaming about the past or anxiously planning for the future, missing out on the beauty and opportunities that exist right in front of you. Are you ready to break free from the confines of your own head and learn how to be fully present in the moment?  1. Practice Presence Mindfulness is the art of bringing your full attention to the present moment without judgment. It encourages us to observe our thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise, rather than being carried away by them. By practicing mindfulness, you can cultivate a deeper connection with the world around you, heightening your awareness of the present moment. Engaging in activities such as meditation, or simply dedicating a few minutes each day to focus solely on your breath can significantly improve your ability to be present. As author Eckhart Tolle once said, "Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life." 2. Limit So You Can Look  In today's technology-driven era, our attention is constantly being hijacked by smartphones, social media, and the never-ending stream of notifications. These distractions can rob us of precious moments and hinder our ability to fully engage with the world around us. Set aside dedicated time each day to disconnect from digital devices and create a tech-free zone. By doing so, you'll have a chance to fully immerse yourself in conversations, appreciate the beauty of nature, and cherish the small moments that often go unnoticed. It's about seeing what you can't see because you limit so you can look.  As tech entrepreneur Tristan Harris once said, "The most precious resource we all have is time." 3. Grow Gratitude Gratitude is a powerful mindset that helps shift our focus from what we lack to what we already have. By regularly practicing gratitude, we become more aware of the countless blessings and opportunities that surround us every day. Take a few minutes each morning or evening to reflect on the things you are grateful for, whether it's a loving family, good health, or even the simple pleasure of a warm cup of coffee. By consciously acknowledging and appreciating these blessings, you bring yourself into the present moment and cultivate a sense of contentment and fulfillment. As renowned psychologist Dr. Robert Emmons once said, "Gratitude is not about ignoring or denying the negative aspects of life. It's an affirmation that there is always something good to be found." You can break free from the confines of your mind and live a truly present life. Embrace the opportunities, connections, and joys in the here and now, and watch as your world transforms into a tapestry of meaningful moments. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present."   "Be present. Be incredible.

The football game is over, but the journey of presence is now! Get out of your head! Imagine this: you're sitting at a picturesque café, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the air, and a gentle breeze tickling your skin. As the world around you buzzes with life, you find yourself lost in a sea of thoughts, worries, and regrets. Meanwhile, the beauty of the present moment slips through your fingers, unnoticed and forgotten. Sound familiar? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Oftentimes, we live a foggy life with little thought for our next actions because all we do is react to the stimuli in front of us. We habitually place one foot in front of the other, even to the point where a trip over a step becomes just part of the day.  Life is too precious! You were created on purpose, for a purpose, here on earth and in Heaven. So whether your team won the Super Bowl or you're sitting back wishing that the coach called a different play or the Ref called a missed penalty, you've got today to make it count. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make it count! "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present." - Kristianne Wargo In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of thoughts, worries, and distractions that constantly flood our minds. Maybe you've found youself daydreaming about the past or anxiously planning for the future, missing out on the beauty and opportunities that exist right in front of you. Are you ready to break free from the confines of your own head and learn how to be fully present in the moment?  1. Practice Presence Mindfulness is the art of bringing your full attention to the present moment without judgment. It encourages us to observe our thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise, rather than being carried away by them.

Yet, there is a far greater victory that every believer can experience, one that surpasses any earthly achievement. Victorious in love! And that victory is found in God's incredible love for us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the grand game of life, we sometimes face challenges that can leave us feeling defeated and discouraged. But in those moments, we must remember that God's love is unwavering, unending, and undefeated. In fact, the Bible reassures us that "neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:38-39, NIV). God's love is not mere sentimentality; it is an unshakable force that empowers us to triumph over every obstacle. God's love is what makes you an overcomer! Just as the winners of the Super Bowl receive a championship ring as a symbol of their victory, we, too, can wear the assurance of God's love as our everlasting trophy on our hearts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Victorious in love! Throughout the Bible, we find countless examples of God's unfailing love. In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were in bondage and cried out to God for deliverance. In response, He parted the Red Sea and led them to freedom. This epic display of love demonstrates that God is not only aware of our struggles, but is also actively working on our behalf. Furthermore, the ultimate demonstration of God's love was showcased through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ. As stated in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (NIV). It is through Jesus' death and resurrection that you can experience true victory, knowing that you are eternally loved by God. So how do you tap into this victorious love? It starts by acknowledging our need for a relationship with God, and humbly accepting His invitation to experience His love. You can do this by regularly spending time with Him through prayer, reading His Word, and meditating on His promises. The more you immerse yourself in His love, the more your faith will grow, enabling you to overcome adversities with confidence. In the Super Bowl of life, the opposition may be fierce (Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers), but we have a secret weapon-- and it's God's love. Let's embrace it, running the race with endurance, knowing that we are victorious in love. As 1 Corinthians 15:57 reminds us, "But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (NIV). My friend, no matter what you are facing today, remember that God's love is your constant companion and source of strength. Trust in His love, for it never fails, and allow it to propel you into a life of victory. As you dive deep into the unfathomable depths of God's love, may you experience a profound sense of joy, peace, and assurance that surpasses any Super Bowl triumph. "Love never fails." - 1 Corinthians 13:8a (NIV).   "Be present. Be incredible.

Like in football, love requires dedication, intentionality, and a strong game plan. Love like a Super Bowl champion! As Valentine's Day approaches, it's the perfect time to up your love game and become an incredible spouse. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Here are three things you can do to love deeper and more intentionally, just like a Super Bowl champion. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love deeper and intentionally! 1. Have a Winning Mindset In football, champions never doubt their abilities or the potential of their team. Apply this winning mindset to your marriage by believing in the strength and potential of your relationship. Remind yourself and your spouse of the love and commitment you share, especially during challenging times. Trust in your love, have confidence in your teamwork, and face any marital challenges like the champion that you are. 2. Practice Daily Acts of Love Super Bowl champions don't become winners overnight; they put in the hours of practice each day. Similarly, cultivating a deep and intentional love requires consistent effort and small acts of love every day. Surprise your spouse with a heartfelt love note, a cup of their favorite coffee, or a random act of kindness. Show appreciation for their presence in your life through small gestures that speak volumes about your love and commitment. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo mentions, "Love is not just a feeling; it is a choice we make every day." Practice love daily, and watch your marriage thrive. 3. Create Meaningful Experiences Super Bowl champions put their heart and soul into every game, and they create memories that last a lifetime. Apply this principle to your marriage by intentionally creating meaningful experiences together. Plan a special date night on Valentine's Day or any other occasion that honors your sweetheart. It could be a romantic dinner at home, a surprise picnic, or even a weekend getaway. Remember, it's not about the grand gestures but about the thoughtfulness and effort you put into making moments special and memorable for both of you. As Kristianne Wargo suggests, "Make each experience a chance to create lasting memories, adding bricks to the foundation of your love." As you embark on your journey to love like a Super Bowl champion, remember that it's the little things that make a big impact. Believe in the power of your love, practice daily acts of love, and create meaningful experiences that strengthen your bond. Love, just like winning a Super Bowl, requires dedication, strategy, and teamwork. So, gear up, embrace the challenge, and show your sweetheart what it means to love like a champion.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Like in football, love requires dedication, intentionality, and a strong game plan. Love like a Super Bowl champion! As Valentine's Day approaches, it's the perfect time to up your love game and become an incredible spouse. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Here are three things you can do to love deeper and more intentionally, just like a Super Bowl champion. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love deeper and intentionally! 1. Have a Winning Mindset In football, champions never doubt their abilities or the potential of their team. Apply this winning mindset to your marriage by believing in the strength and potential of your relationship. Remind yourself and your spouse of the love and commitment you share, especially during challenging times. Trust in your love, have confidence in your teamwork, and face any marital challenges like the champion that you are. 2. Practice Daily Acts of Love Super Bowl champions don't become winners overnight; they put in the hours of practice each day. Similarly, cultivating a deep and intentional love requires consistent effort and small acts of love every day. Surprise your spouse with a heartfelt love note, a cup of their favorite coffee, or a random act of kindness. Show appreciation for their presence in your life through small gestures that speak volumes about your love and commitment. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo mentions, "Love is not just a feeling; it is a choice we make every day." Practice love daily, and watch your marriage thrive. 3. Create Meaningful Experiences Super Bowl champions put their heart and soul into every game, and they create memories that last a lifetime. Apply this principle to your marriage by intentionally creating meaningful experiences together. Plan a special date night on Valentine's Day or any other occasion that honors your sweetheart. It could be a romantic dinner at home, a surprise picnic, or even a weekend getaway. Remember, it's not about the grand gestures but about the thoughtfulness and effort you put into making moments special and memorable for both of you. As Kristianne Wargo suggests, "Make each experience a chance to create lasting memories, adding bricks to the foundation of your love." As you embark on your journey to love like a Super Bowl champion, remember that it's the little things that make a big impact. Believe in the power of your love, practice daily acts of love, and create meaningful experiences that strengthen your bond. Love, just like winning a Super Bowl, requires dedication, strategy, and teamwork. So, gear up, embrace the challenge, and show your sweetheart what it means to love like a champion.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Balancing the demands of raising children, managing the chaos of daily life, and juggling activities can be challenging. How do you parent like a Super Bowl MVP? Imagine, for a moment, raising up a son like Brock Purdy or Patrick Mahomes. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes, two talented quarterbacks with their own unique styles, would undoubtedly have valuable life lessons to impart to their children because of their moms. In anticipation of an incredible Super Bowl, why not look at our own families?  Let's make this fun. Because as you know, parenting is not for the faint at heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Are you ready for some football?!? Drawing from their football experiences, here are some lessons they might teach with corresponding football analogies: 1. Never be afraid to take a risk and go for it. Sometimes, the greatest rewards come from stepping out of your comfort zone and making that bold pass downfield. Just like in football, taking calculated risks and embracing challenges can lead to extraordinary opportunities. 2. Always work hard and give your best effort. And this is both on and off the field. Football teaches us the importance of dedication, practice, and perseverance. The same principles apply to life. By putting in the time and effort to improve yourself and pursue your goals, you set yourself up for success. Why not do that for the family, for the kiddos? 3. Embrace teamwork and value collaboration. Football is a team sport, and success is built on trust and effective communication. Teach your children the importance of being a team player, supporting others, and working together towards common goals. Just like a well-executed football play, when everyone works in harmony, remarkable things can happen. 4. Face adversity with resilience and a positive mindset. In football, there will be games where everything seems to go wrong, but a great quarterback rises above the challenges and uses them as fuel for a comeback. Similarly, in life, setbacks and obstacles are inevitable. Teach your children to stay resilient, learn from failures, and maintain a positive attitude. It's not about avoiding adversity, but rather how they respond to it that matters. 5. Adapt and contribute from the sidelines. In football, injuries or circumstances may prevent a player from being on the field. However, that doesn't mean their role becomes insignificant. Teach your children that when they can't actively participate, there are still ways to contribute and make a positive impact. They can support and encourage their teammates, provide insights from their unique perspective, and offer assistance from the sidelines. Just like a skilled backup quarterback, their presence and guidance can be invaluable to the team. 6. Lead by example and inspire others. As quarterbacks, Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes are responsible for leading their teams on and off the field. They demonstrate the power of strong leadership through their actions, decision-making, and motivation. Encourage your children to be leaders in their lives, inspiring others through character, integrity, and empathy. 7. Enjoy the journey and celebrate victories, big or small. Football seasons are filled with ups and downs, victories and defeats. Teach your children to savor the journey, to appreciate the effort they put in, and to find joy in the process, regardless of the outcome. Just like in football, the moments of triumph and shared experiences with teammates and loved ones make the journey worthwhile. By instilling these values and lessons and using football analogies to reinforce their teachings, Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes would guide their children toward becoming resilient, teamwork-oriented, and goal-driven individuals who embrace challenges and pursue their dreams with passion.

Society hails it as the ultimate goal, the pinnacle of success. But what if perfection was not the endgame? Empower yourself - practice progress! In a world that often measures success by the destination reached, it is easy to become fixated on achieving flawless results. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We strive for flawless performance at work, the perfect body, and faultless relationships. However, in our pursuit of perfection, we inadvertently stifle our growth and limit our potential. We set ourselves up to be stuck before we're even stuck! Perfectionism often creates an unyielding cycle of self-criticism and fear of failure. The constant drive for flawlessness can be paralyzing, preventing us from taking risks, making decisions, and embracing new experiences. But there is another way - the path of progress. The K.I.S.S. ~ Practice progress! Progress is the process of continuous growth, improvement, and evolution. It is about celebrating the small wins, the steps forward, and the lessons learned along the way. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Practice progress means embracing imperfection with open arms and finding joy in the journey rather than fixating on the destination." Embracing progress means accepting that growth is a gradual process. It means acknowledging that every misstep, setback, or failure is an opportunity for a comeback; learning and growth. Rather than viewing mistakes as a sign of defeat, reframe them as stepping stones, propelling you forward on your chosen path. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Practice progress involves taking intentional action every day. It means making decisions that align with your values and move you closer to where you want to be. It's about setting achievable goals and consistently taking small steps toward them. When you practice progress, comparison loses its power. The focus shifts from what others have achieved to one's own personal growth. What you're doing! With progress as the guiding light, you become inspired by your own journey, celebrating the unique milestones you reach along the way. As you embark on this path, it is essential to cultivate self-compassion. Learn to be kind to yourself, and embrace your flaws and imperfections as vital parts of who you are. By extending grace to yourself, you can find the courage to keep going even when the road ahead seems challenging. Remember, practice progress is not about discounting the significance of a goal. It is about embracing the journey and understanding that each step forward, no matter how small, brings you closer to your dreams. Free yourself from the shackles of perfectionism and embrace the transformative power of progress. By shifting your focus to the joys and lessons found along the way, you unlock your true potential to create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It is about embracing the journey and understanding that each step forward, no matter how small, brings you closer to your dreams. Free yourself from the shackles of perfectionism and embrace the transformative power of progress. By shifting your focus to the joys and lessons found along the way, you unlock your true potential to create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Live well today! 1. Nurture with Nutrients Mindful Eating: Nurture Your Body with Nutrient-Rich Choices The way we fuel our bodies has a profound impact on our overall well-being. Being mindful of the foods we consume enables us to make healthier choices that support our weight loss goals. Instead of indulging in processed snacks or fast food, choose nutrient-rich alternatives like fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Take the time to savor each bite, appreciating the flavors and nourishing your body. Plan your meals ahead, pack healthy snacks, and stay hydrated throughout the day. Remember, small, consistent steps lead to lasting change. "Nourishing your body with nutrient-rich foods is like giving yourself a daily gift of self-love and vitality." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Jump for Joy Active Lifestyle: Find Joy in Movement Exercise is not solely limited to the confines of a gym. Embrace an active lifestyle by finding joy in movement. Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine, whether it's a brisk walk during your lunch break, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or engaging in activities you love, such as dancing, hiking, or playing a sport. By making movement a central part of your day, you'll not only burn calories but also elevate your mood, boost energy levels, and improve overall well-being. 3. Care for a Cause Self-Care: Prioritize Mental and Emotional Health Living well today goes beyond physical aspects; it also encompasses mental and emotional well-being. Prioritize self-care by setting aside time for relaxation, stress reduction, and meaningful connections. Practice mindfulness techniques, such as meditation or deep breathing exercises, to calm the mind and reduce stress. Engage in activities that bring you joy, whether it's reading a book, listening to music, or spending quality time with loved ones. Remember, a healthy mind contributes to a healthy body. It's time to shift our focus from pursuing perfection and instead embrace the concept of living well today. By making mindful choices in our eating habits, finding joy in movement, and prioritizing our mental and emotional health, we can pave the way for a healthier lifestyle. Remember, it's the small decisions we make each day that add up to significant long-term changes. So, live well today, and let it be the foundation for a more vibrant, fulfilling life.

But you have dreams and desires. So stoke the embers of your passion and fan the flame! Life is a journey of ups and downs, and it is during the challenging moments that we truly test our determination and commitment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    When obstacles arise, it's natural to question our path and contemplate giving up. However, it is precisely during these times that we must fan the flame of our dreams and keep pushing forward. Where are you today in your dream? Is it still a dream? Is it on the back burner? Is there barely a spark? But as you know, with a dream, you have to be persistent. Persistence is the backbone of success. It's the unwavering belief in your dreams and the commitment to overcome obstacles that propel you toward your goals. When faced with setbacks or disappointments, remind yourself of the reasons why you started on this path. Reignite the fire within you by reconnecting with your passion and reminding yourself of the profound impact your dreams can have on your life and the lives of others, the world you touch. Remember that progress often occurs in small, incremental steps. It's easy to become overwhelmed when looking at the big picture and feeling like you're not making significant strides. But progress is progress, no matter how small. Celebrate each milestone, no matter how minor, and use it as fuel to keep moving forward. Every step brings you closer to your dream, and each experience, whether positive or negative, contributes to your growth and resilience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fan the flame! Surround yourself with a support network of individuals who believe in your dreams and encourage you to persevere. Seek out mentors or like-minded individuals who have crossed similar paths and can offer guidance and inspiration. Connect with those who have overcome challenges and achieved success, as their stories can serve as reminders that no dream is too big and no hurdle is insurmountable. Embrace the setbacks and failures as opportunities for growth, rather than reasons to abandon your dreams. It's often in adversity that we discover our true strengths and resilience. Learn from your mistakes, adapt your strategies, and keep moving forward with a newfound wisdom and determination. Nourish your creativity and find inspiration in unexpected places. Explore new avenues and seek out experiences that spark your imagination. Surround yourself with art, music, literature, and nature. Allow the beauty and wonder of the world to ignite your passion and rejuvenate your spirit. Above all, take care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. It's easy to neglect self-care when chasing after our dreams, but remember that maintaining your well-being is crucial for long-term success. Prioritize self-care activities that recharge your energy, reduce stress, and foster a positive mindset. When you are at your best, you can face challenges head-on and keep the flame of your dreams burning brightly. In the pursuit of your dreams, it's essential to remember that the journey is not always easy, but it's the challenges that make the destination even more rewarding. Stay persistent, stay focused, and keep fanning the flame within you. Embrace the inevitable ups and downs, for they are part of your unique story. With unwavering belief, determination, and persistence, you can overcome any obstacle and achieve the extraordinary. So, keep going, keep learning, and keep moving closer to your dream. You got this!

Do you drop your dreams, or do you take the plunge toward your dreams? A lot of the time, we hide how we really feel in our everyday lives by pretending to be someone we're not. We hide in shame, embarrassed by the lack of accomplishments or accolades.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    At some point, we think sharing our stories will make everything better, but embracing vulnerability is harder to do than to say. So in order to maintain the facade of perfection, we get stuck (or claim to be), because it's easier not to do than to do.  Now some would eventually suggest that the mindset is key to moving forward. But how can you move forward when you're only looking backward? Something that might have been a comeback, continues to be a setback. When will this nightmare end? At what point can you take the plunge toward your dreams? The K.I.S.S. ~ Get G.U.T.S.Y.! Most of the time, we want to know what the results will be before we even try.  There is no guarantee in life. But doesn't that make your dreams and goals more worthwhile? "You don't need to know where everything's going before you get there." ~ Kristianne Wargo Get G.U.T.S.Y.! G – Get Started Taking the first step is crucial. Often, fear and overthinking can hold us back from pursuing our dreams. It takes guts to overcome those barriers and get started. Start with a small action or task that will set you on the path towards your goal. Breaking the inertia and initiating momentum is key to progress. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo U – Unwavering Belief Believe in yourself and your dreams wholeheartedly. Cultivate unshakable self-confidence and a firm belief that you can achieve what you set out to do. Even in the face of challenges and setbacks, it takes guts to stay committed and unwavering in your belief. Trust in your abilities and keep faith in your vision. Believe in who you are becoming! T – Take Risks Taking calculated risks is essential for growth and success. It takes guts to step outside of your comfort zone and embrace uncertainty. Be willing to explore uncharted territories, try new approaches, and seize opportunities that come your way. Embrace challenges as chances to learn and grow, knowing that calculated risks often lead to extraordinary achievements. S – Stay Persistent Persistence is the key to overcoming obstacles and achieving long-term goals. It takes guts to keep going when faced with setbacks, rejections, or slow progress. Stay committed to your dreams and put in consistent effort. Develop resilience, learn from failures, and keep pushing forward with determination and endurance, even in the face of adversity. Y – Yield to Growth A "Gutsy" individual recognizes the importance of continuous personal and professional growth. Yielding to growth requires embracing a mindset of learning, open-mindedness, and adaptability. It takes guts to acknowledge areas for improvement, seek feedback, and actively pursue opportunities for personal growth and development. By being open to learning and embracing new challenges, you can achieve remarkable growth that propels you towards your goals and dreams. Harness the courage to step out of your comfort zone, challenge your limits, and unlock your full potential. "Within you lies the power to transform your dreams into reality. The possibilities are endless when you have the courage to take that first step. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, your journey doesn't require you to have all the answers or know exactly where you're heading. It only demands that you take that leap of faith, trust in yourself, and embrace the beauty of the unknown. Life is a magnificent adventure waiting to unfold. Instead of allowing uncertainty to hinder your dreams and goals, remember that you don't need to know everything before you get there. Embrace vulnerability, embody a growth mindset, and cultivate a sense of adventure. Take the plunge, and you'll discover that the journey itself is where the magic lies. As Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Embrace the unknown, for it is within the unknown that extraordinary dreams come to life."   "Be present. Be incredible.

Do you drop your dreams, or do you take the plunge toward your dreams? A lot of the time, we hide how we really feel in our everyday lives by pretending to be someone we're not. We hide in shame, embarrassed by the lack of accomplishments or accolades.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    At some point, we think sharing our stories will make everything better, but embracing vulnerability is harder to do than to say. So in order to maintain the facade of perfection, we get stuck (or claim to be), because it's easier not to do than to do.  Now some would eventually suggest that the mindset is key to moving forward. But how can you move forward when you're only looking backward? Something that might have been a comeback, continues to be a setback. When will this nightmare end? At what point can you take the plunge toward your dreams? The K.I.S.S. ~ Get G.U.T.S.Y.! Most of the time, we want to know what the results will be before we even try.  There is no guarantee in life. But doesn't that make your dreams and goals more worthwhile? "You don't need to know where everything's going before you get there." ~ Kristianne Wargo Get G.U.T.S.Y.! G – Get Started Taking the first step is crucial. Often, fear and overthinking can hold us back from pursuing our dreams. It takes guts to overcome those barriers and get started. Start with a small action or task that will set you on the path towards your goal. Breaking the inertia and initiating momentum is key to progress. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo U – Unwavering Belief Believe in yourself and your dreams wholeheartedly. Cultivate unshakable self-confidence and a firm belief that you can achieve what you set out to do. Even in the face of challenges and setbacks, it takes guts to stay committed and unwavering in your belief. Trust in your abilities and keep faith in your vision. Believe in who you are becoming! T – Take Risks Taking calculated risks is essential for growth and success. It takes guts to step outside of your comfort zone and embrace uncertainty. Be willing to explore uncharted territories, try new approaches, and seize opportunities that come your way. Embrace challenges as chances to learn and grow, knowing that calculated risks often lead to extraordinary achievements. S – Stay Persistent Persistence is the key to overcoming obstacles and achieving long-term goals. It takes guts to keep going when faced with setbacks, rejections, or slow progress. Stay committed to your dreams and put in consistent effort. Develop resilience, learn from failures, and keep pushing forward with determination and endurance, even in the face of adversity. Y – Yield to Growth A "Gutsy" individual recognizes the importance of continuous personal and professional growth. Yielding to growth requires embracing a mindset of learning, open-mindedness, and adaptability. It takes guts to acknowledge areas for improvement, seek feedback, and actively pursue opportunities for personal growth and development. By being open to learning and embracing new challenges, you can achieve remarkable growth that propels you towards your goals and dreams. Harness the courage to step out of your comfort zone, challenge your limits, and unlock your full potential. "Within you lies the power to transform your dreams into reality. The possibilities are endless when you have the courage to take that first step. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, your journey doesn't require you to have all the answers or know exactly where you're heading. It only demands that you take...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1417</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,dreams,entrepreneurs,forgiveness,goals,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,productivity,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/fe5cfa1b0af8af2dc611e704e82b9392.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3297 Rivers of Living Water</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3297-rivers-of-living-water--58561797</link><description><![CDATA[37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” (John 7:37-38) These words from Jesus resonate deeply with anyone who longs to be seen and heard by God, who desires to be filled and overflowing with His love and presence. In a world where it is easy to feel overlooked and insignificant, these verses offer a promise of connection and purpose. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

He longs for us to experience His love, to be whole and fulfilled in every area of life. We were designed to live loved, to receive and overflow with the abundant love that God offers. Imagine a wellspring deep within us, a reservoir filled with living water. This living water is the Holy Spirit, the fullness of God's presence dwelling within us. It is meant to flow freely, nourishing and refreshing not only ourselves but also those around us. We were created to be vessels of blessing, conduits of God's love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (the fruits of the spirit). Yet, too often, our wells run dry. We try to serve out of an empty cup. The busyness and pressures of life drain us, leaving us parched and thirsty. We find ourselves seeking validation and significance in the wrong places, desperate to be seen and heard by others. But Jesus invites us to come to Him, the true source of living water, the only one who can satisfy our deepest longings. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rivers of living water! In the presence of God, we find true fulfillment and purpose. It is here that the empty places within us are filled, and the overflow begins. As we drink deeply from the well of God's love, we are empowered to live the life He has created us for. We step into the good works that He has prepared in advance for us, becoming vessels of blessing and transformation in the world.  Live. Love. Impact! So, how do we access this abundant life? It starts with a simple prayer, a surrender of our hearts and desires to God. Ask Him to fill you up overflowing with His love and living water. Invite Him to guide you, to shape your thoughts and actions, so that you may walk in alignment with His plans and purposes here on earth and in Heaven. As you journey through life, may you continually seek to be filled by God. May you drink deeply from the well of His love, allowing it to replenish and restore you. And may you become a vessel of blessing, overflowing with His presence and impacting the world in which you touch. As you reflect on the words of John 7:37-38, let's remember that God cares about every aspect of your life. He longs to fill you with His love and living water, empowering you to live the life He has designed for you. Embrace this invitation to be seen and heard by God, to be a vessel of His love and grace in the world. "Rivers of living water will flow from his heart." - John 7:38 (NLT)   "Be present.

After all, no one wants to be wrong. So in your marriage, do you want to know the truth? It's much easier to ignore the underlying issues and put a bandaid on the situation. But does this truly elevate your marriage, or is it just a temporary fix? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You have got to step out of this comfort zone and challenge yourself to seek the truth.   "If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Marriage is a two-way street, requiring effort and commitment from both partners. It takes two to tango. Acknowledging this responsibility is crucial for creating a strong foundation. However, even if both partners carry this responsibility, it only takes one to initiate change. So today, let's examine where you currently stand and where you want your marriage to go. If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound! The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn off the sound! Turning off the sound is a metaphorical way of emphasizing that actions speak louder than words, and so do your spouse's actions. 1. Pay attention to what isn't being said. It invites you to pay attention to the unspoken cues and signals within your relationship. Often, these subtle signs can reveal more about the true state of your marriage than any spoken words. By observing what isn't being said, you can begin to unravel the underlying truths that may have been overshadowed by daily routines and busyness. 2. Follow the clues where they lead. Following these clues can provide valuable insights into the challenges your marriage faces. You might uncover something you never noticed because you were in tuned with the words, not the actions. As you follow the clues without any pre-judgment, you can see what is really happening, for better or worse. 3. Face the truth in love and grace. It requires a willingness to face the truth head-on rather than avoiding uncomfortable conversations or sweeping problems under the rug. Addressing these issues with love and grace is essential for nurturing your relationship's growth and prosperity. Ultimately, you want to elevate your spouse. But if your actions say otherwise, then you need to face the fact of how you are loving well, or the lack thereof. Ultimately, seeking the truth in your marriage allows you to gauge the emotional temperature of your connection rather than reacting to fleeting moments. This is a way you can see the barometer of the day, not the temperature in the moment. It encourages you to dig deeper and uncover the root causes of any discontent or disconnect. Once you understand these underlying truths, you can develop strategies and work together to overcome any obstacles that may be hindering your marital bliss. Who doesn't want to be happy and feel engaged in their marriage with a partner who loves and cares deeply? "If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Take a moment to eliminate distractions and truly see your marriage for what it is. Embrace the opportunity to communicate honestly, listen attentively, and work together towards a happier, more fulfilling partnership. And when you see gaps in your marriage, ask yourself, "What would a caring and loving wife do?" In the journey towards a thriving marriage, facing the truth is not always easy. It requires courage and vulnerability. But remember, acknowledging and addressing the truth with openness and love can pave the way for a deeper connection and contentment that will lead to a more fulfilling marriage. So, are you ready to turn off the sound and discover the truth in your marriage?   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

After all, no one wants to be wrong. So in your marriage, do you want to know the truth? It's much easier to ignore the underlying issues and put a bandaid on the situation. But does this truly elevate your marriage, or is it just a temporary fix? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You have got to step out of this comfort zone and challenge yourself to seek the truth.   "If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Marriage is a two-way street, requiring effort and commitment from both partners. It takes two to tango. Acknowledging this responsibility is crucial for creating a strong foundation. However, even if both partners carry this responsibility, it only takes one to initiate change. So today, let's examine where you currently stand and where you want your marriage to go. If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound! The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn off the sound! Turning off the sound is a metaphorical way of emphasizing that actions speak louder than words, and so do your spouse's actions. 1. Pay attention to what isn't being said. It invites you to pay attention to the unspoken cues and signals within your relationship. Often, these subtle signs can reveal more about the true state of your marriage than any spoken words. By observing what isn't being said, you can begin to unravel the underlying truths that may have been overshadowed by daily routines and busyness. 2. Follow the clues where they lead. Following these clues can provide valuable insights into the challenges your marriage faces. You might uncover something you never noticed because you were in tuned with the words, not the actions. As you follow the clues without any pre-judgment, you can see what is really happening, for better or worse. 3. Face the truth in love and grace. It requires a willingness to face the truth head-on rather than avoiding uncomfortable conversations or sweeping problems under the rug. Addressing these issues with love and grace is essential for nurturing your relationship's growth and prosperity. Ultimately, you want to elevate your spouse. But if your actions say otherwise, then you need to face the fact of how you are loving well, or the lack thereof. Ultimately, seeking the truth in your marriage allows you to gauge the emotional temperature of your connection rather than reacting to fleeting moments. This is a way you can see the barometer of the day, not the temperature in the moment. It encourages you to dig deeper and uncover the root causes of any discontent or disconnect. Once you understand these underlying truths, you can develop strategies and work together to overcome any obstacles that may be hindering your marital bliss. Who doesn't want to be happy and feel engaged in their marriage with a partner who loves and cares deeply? "If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Take a moment to eliminate distractions and truly see your marriage for what it is. Embrace the opportunity to communicate honestly, listen attentively, and work together towards a happier, more fulfilling partnership. And when you see gaps in your marriage, ask yourself, "What would a caring and loving wife do?" In the journey towards a thriving marriage, facing the truth is not always easy. It requires courage and vulnerability. But remember, acknowledging and addressing the truth with openness and love can pave the way for a deeper connection and contentment that will lead to a more fulfilling marriage. So, are you ready to turn off the sound and discover the truth in your marriage?   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"    ...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>952</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,commitment,communication,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,vows,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/7825ed2f910c4cc51936e279c885eedd.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3295 Love from Afar</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3295-love-from-afar--58540982</link><description><![CDATA[In the journey of parenting, it is natural for parents to want to be involved in every aspect of their child's life. Yet, it's essential for parents to strike a balance between being present and giving the necessary space. Love from afar. As you know, the love and bond between a parent and child are unparalleled. There is nothing like the relationship between mom and son, mom and daughter.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But if we're not careful, there comes a point where this love can inadvertently become suffocating, hindering the growth and maturation of our children. I don't know about you, but I want my children to be strong and independent. I want them to be able to impact the world they touch with their gifts and talents.  My responsibility is to give them the launching pad so they can live a life well-lived. When you think about it, we only have 18-20 years on average that our children need us, give or take. And then, they have their whole life ahead of them. What are some practical ways we as parents can love from afar, fostering healthy growth and maturity in their children at different stages of life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Love from afar! Obviously, the age of the child determines how you lead them well so they can live well. So, I want to break down some of the stages of life. Of course, some of this can be duplicated with some tweaks.  Elementary Age: 1. Encourage Independence through Responsibility: For parents of elementary-age children, it is important to instill a sense of responsibility. Allow them to complete age-appropriate tasks independently, such as packing their school bag or making their bed. This not only teaches them essential life skills but also boosts their confidence and gives them a sense of accomplishment. 2. Support Social Interactions: Encourage your child to participate in extracurricular activities and social events. This will provide them with opportunities to interact with their peers, develop social skills, and learn how to navigate different social dynamics. As a parent, support their involvement while giving them the necessary space to explore and make their own choices. Middle School: 1. Foster Open Communication: During the middle school years, children may begin to assert their independence and seek more privacy. It becomes crucial for parents to create a safe and open environment for communication. Initiate conversations about their daily life, school, and hobbies, but also respect their need for personal space. Let them know your door is always open should they need guidance or support. 2. Encourage Self-Reflection: Middle schoolers are at an age where figuring out their identity and values becomes more significant. Encourage them to engage in self-reflection and explore their interests and passions. Provide resources and support, but allow them the freedom to shape their own opinions and make decisions. Guide them, don't dictate to them. High School: 1. Empower Decision-Making: High school is a critical transitional period in a teenager's life. Parents can love from afar by empowering their children to make their own decisions. Encourage them to take ownership of their academic choices, extracurricular activities, and personal goals. This autonomy will inspire self-confidence and foster growth. 2. Support Goal-setting and Planning: Help your high schooler set realistic goals and create a plan to achieve them. Instead of dictating their path, guide them in mapping out steps to reach their aspirations. This will promote self-discipline, time management skills, and a sense of responsibility. College and Grown Adults: 1. Maintain a Supportive Presence: During their college years and beyond, it is important for parents to be a supportive presence. Be available for guidance, lend an empathetic ear, and offer advice when sought. However, acknowledge that they are now adults, capable of making their own decisions and learning from their experiences. 2. Respect Boundaries: As your child ventures into adulthood, it is necessary to respect their boundaries. While you may still be their trusted source of wisdom, avoid imposing your opinions or decisions on them. Allow them the freedom to carve their own path, even if it differs from your expectations. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Love from afar is about creating a nurturing environment where your child experiences the freedom to grow, while also knowing they have a loving support system if needed." Remember, loving from afar does not mean relinquishing parental love or guidance. It means finding the right balance of being present and allowing your children the necessary space to become independent individuals. By practicing these techniques in various stages of their lives, you can foster healthy growth and maturity, ultimately shaping them into well-rounded adults.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Shallow thinking doesn't fuel the fire needed to make a meaningful impact in your life and the lives of others. You have got to see the bigger picture. True success, the kind that requires stepping out of your comfort zone and diving into unchartered territories, demands effort and perseverance. It's not just about dreaming; it's about putting in the hard work and accepting the challenges that come with it. And believe me, it's worth it. Sure, life would be easier if you could avoid the hard work and take the easy road. But ask yourself, where do most people end up when they settle for mediocrity? "The road less traveled is the path to greatness and who you are becoming; a woman of impact!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Dare to ask! Muhammad Ali once said, "Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing." Let those words sink in. Nothing is impossible if you're willing to ask the tough questions, challenge yourself, and push beyond your limits. Embrace your inner power and dare to ask...am I possible? You were created for more. Your dreams are not just whimsical notions; they are gifts sparked by God's love for you. So, keep it simple, ask the questions you've been ignoring. <ul> <li>Is what I want worth fighting for? </li> <li>Why do I want this in the bigger picture? </li> <li>How will it impact me, my family, my community? </li> <li>What or who am I running from? </li> <li>How is fear controlling my actions? </li> <li>What or who is stopping me? </li> <li>What do I need to do to move forward? </li> <li>What's my next step?</li> </ul> But don't stop there. Dare to ask God for guidance, for His mighty power at work within you can bring about accomplishments beyond your wildest dreams. Remember the words from Ephesians 3:20, "Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we ask or think." It is time to unleash your potential, embrace the challenges, and dare to ask! With determination and faith, you will find that the impossible becomes possible, and your journey toward greatness begins with one step if you dare to ask.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What is your W-GPS (word global positioning system)? <ul> <li>Are you one who tears yourself down all the time? </li> <li>Do you see your failures as permanent setbacks? </li> <li> How do you normally pull yourself out of a rut?</li> </ul> You can't live the healthy life you want if you aren't kind to yourself. So if you're ready to banish unwholesome words, then take your mind to the streets. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take your mind to the streets! Mindfulness is essential in living a healthier lifestyle. 1. Mindful Language: The words you choose to use on a daily basis can either lift you up or drag you down. Make a conscious effort to eliminate negative self-talk and replace it with positive affirmations. Instead of saying "I can't" or "I'm not good enough," try saying "I can" and "I am capable." By speaking positively to ourselves, we reinforce a mindset of belief and possibility. 2. Mindful Actions: After you establish your thoughts with your language, your follow-through is what matters. Yes-- your actions! What you do with your words leads to your actions. So set yourself up for success with actions that feed who the healthy person you want to become. 3. Mindful Goals: Setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals is essential for staying focused and motivated. When our goals are tangible and broken down into smaller milestones, it becomes easier to track our progress and celebrate our achievements along the way. Remember, each step towards your goal, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. "Instead of focusing on the negative words that demean and degrade your dreams and goals, ask yourself, 'What would a healthy me do?'" ~ Kristianne Wargo By shifting your perspective and reevaluating the words you use, you can take control of your thoughts and empower yourself to make healthier choices. Banishing unwholesome words from your vocabulary is a powerful step towards achieving your healthy goals. By practicing mindfulness, you can create a positive and empowering environment that propels you towards success. Remember, the words you speak to yourself matter, so let's choose them wisely.

Keep moving forward, pushing yourself to reach new heights. As Zig Ziglar said, "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." Life can often feel like a marathon, with each day presenting its own unique set of hurdles. It is in these moments that we must draw upon our reservoir of perseverance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Olympic gold medalist, Wilma Rudolph, whose journey from childhood paralysis to becoming the fastest woman in the world serves as an inspiration, said, "The triumph can't be had without the struggle." She understood that true success comes from persisting through the adversity that life throws our way. In our pursuit of excellence, setbacks are inevitable. But it is during these setbacks that we have the opportunity for comebacks to grow and reach new levels of achievement. As Thomas Edison famously remarked, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." It is this unwavering determination to keep going, despite repeated failures, that ultimately leads to breakthroughs and innovations. Where do you need a breakthrough? One often-overlooked aspect of perseverance is the importance of maintaining a positive and optimistic mindset. The renowned motivational speaker and author, Jim Rohn, once said, "Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become." This highlights the fact that our journey towards success is not solely dependent on external factors but largely driven by our internal beliefs and attitudes. What do you believe about who you are becoming? The K.I.S.S. ~ Run with perseverance! Having the right mindset is crucial, but so is taking consistent action toward your goals. American football coach, Vince Lombardi, wisely stated, "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." These words highlight the importance of perseverance in transforming our dreams into reality. It is by staying committed and focused that we can overcome any challenge that comes our way. "Perseverance is the key that unlocks the door to success." ~ Kristianne Wargo These words remind us that perseverance is not just an optional trait to possess, but an essential ingredient for achieving greatness. It is the ability to keep going, even when it feels impossible, that separates those who settle for mediocrity from those who reach extraordinary heights. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, the next time you find yourself facing obstacles or have doubt, remember that with perseverance, no goal will be beyond your reach.

It's a common struggle. Let's explore the art of turning setbacks into comebacks as you embrace resilience in the face of adversity.   Life throws us curveballs when we least expect it. It could be a career setback, a personal disappointment, or a failed endeavor that leaves us feeling defeated and questioning our abilities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, it's important to remember that setbacks are not permanent. In fact, they can be the catalyst for a great comeback. Because setbacks are not the end of the road, but rather a stepping stone toward a remarkable comeback.  Are you ready for a comeback? It's time to embrace resilience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace resilience! "Many times, a setback can lead to the dismantlement of dreams, leaving only a disgruntled heart. But with every setback, there's an opportunity for a comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Embrace the setback as a stepping stone When faced with a setback, it's natural to feel frustrated, disheartened, or even hopeless. However, instead of dwelling on the negative emotions, choose to view this setback as a stepping stone towards future success. Every setback offers an opportunity for growth and learning. Take a moment to reflect on what went wrong and identify valuable lessons that can be applied in the future. As Kristianne Wargo says, "Every setback is a setup for a comeback." Reframe your mindset and recognize that setbacks are an essential part of the journey toward success. 2. Cultivate self-compassion and resilience After experiencing a setback, it's crucial to be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion. Understand that setbacks are a normal part of life and that everyone faces challenges along the way. Give yourself permission to feel disappointed but avoid dwelling on negative thoughts or self-blame. Practice resilience by focusing on your strengths, maintaining a positive mindset, and seeking support from loved ones or mentors. Remember, setbacks do not define your worth or abilities; it's how you bounce back from them that matters. 3. Create a plan and take A.I.M. To turn a setback into a comeback, it's crucial to devise a plan of action. Analyze the setbacks and identify the key areas for improvement or change. Break down your goals into smaller, manageable steps, and set realistic timelines to measure your progress. Stay committed to your plan, even if it involves trying new approaches or stepping out of your comfort zone. As Kristianne Wargo rightly says, "Dream big, take a leap, and follow through with massive action." Taking steps towards your goals with determination and persistence will pave the way for a remarkable comeback. "Setbacks are an inevitable part of life, but they do not define your future; they refine who you are becoming." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing resilience, reframing setbacks as opportunities, and taking proactive steps toward your goals, you can transform setbacks into comebacks. As Kristianne Wargo eloquently reminds us, "Every setback is just a setup for an even greater comeback."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's a common struggle. Let's explore the art of turning setbacks into comebacks as you embrace resilience in the face of adversity.   Life throws us curveballs when we least expect it. It could be a career setback, a personal disappointment, or a failed endeavor that leaves us feeling defeated and questioning our abilities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, it's important to remember that setbacks are not permanent. In fact, they can be the catalyst for a great comeback. Because setbacks are not the end of the road, but rather a stepping stone toward a remarkable comeback.  Are you ready for a comeback? It's time to embrace resilience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace resilience! "Many times, a setback can lead to the dismantlement of dreams, leaving only a disgruntled heart. But with every setback, there's an opportunity for a comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Embrace the setback as a stepping stone When faced with a setback, it's natural to feel frustrated, disheartened, or even hopeless. However, instead of dwelling on the negative emotions, choose to view this setback as a stepping stone towards future success. Every setback offers an opportunity for growth and learning. Take a moment to reflect on what went wrong and identify valuable lessons that can be applied in the future. As Kristianne Wargo says, "Every setback is a setup for a comeback." Reframe your mindset and recognize that setbacks are an essential part of the journey toward success. 2. Cultivate self-compassion and resilience After experiencing a setback, it's crucial to be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion. Understand that setbacks are a normal part of life and that everyone faces challenges along the way. Give yourself permission to feel disappointed but avoid dwelling on negative thoughts or self-blame. Practice resilience by focusing on your strengths, maintaining a positive mindset, and seeking support from loved ones or mentors. Remember, setbacks do not define your worth or abilities; it's how you bounce back from them that matters. 3. Create a plan and take A.I.M. To turn a setback into a comeback, it's crucial to devise a plan of action. Analyze the setbacks and identify the key areas for improvement or change. Break down your goals into smaller, manageable steps, and set realistic timelines to measure your progress. Stay committed to your plan, even if it involves trying new approaches or stepping out of your comfort zone. As Kristianne Wargo rightly says, "Dream big, take a leap, and follow through with massive action." Taking steps towards your goals with determination and persistence will pave the way for a remarkable comeback. "Setbacks are an inevitable part of life, but they do not define your future; they refine who you are becoming." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing resilience, reframing setbacks as opportunities, and taking proactive steps toward your goals, you can transform setbacks into comebacks. As Kristianne Wargo eloquently reminds us, "Every setback is just a setup for an even greater comeback."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

(James 1:5 NIV) In our journey through life, we frequently encounter challenging situations and difficult decisions. It is during these times that we can find solace and hope.

His generosity is boundless, and He provides without any hesitation or judgment. In the midst of the uncertainties we face today, let's not forget that divine guidance is readily available through prayer. The wisdom bestowed upon you by God is not like the knowledge of this world; it runs deeper, is purer, and carries the heavenly insight. By seeking wisdom from our Heavenly Father, you tap into a source that illuminates your path and aligns your decisions with His will. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ask God! Make today a day marked by continuous conversation with God, as we seek His wisdom in every aspect of our lives. Whether it is a seemingly small decision or a choice that will alter the course of our lives, His guidance is available to us in abundance and without condition. Take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life that require God's wisdom today. How can you actively seek His guidance and remain open to the insights He provides? Let the message of James 1:5 empower you and bring hope in the midst of chaos. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him and he shall direct your paths." - Proverbs 3:5-6   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't miss your moment! It's not uncommon for couples to go through seasons where their energy for their marriage dwindles. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But fear not, dear spouse, because there are ways to reignite that spark and ensure you don't miss a moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reignite that spark! 1. Embrace Adventure Sometimes, the solution to feeling stagnant in your marriage lies outside of your comfort zone. It's time to step out and embrace adventure together. Plan a spontaneous weekend getaway to a place you've never been before. Take a road trip and explore new restaurants, parks, and attractions along the way. Go hiking, try a new hobby together, or take a dance class. Embracing adventure injects excitement and fresh experiences into your relationship, reminding you of the joy that can be found in exploring new things together. Les and Leslie Parrot, renowned relationship experts and authors of "Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts," emphasize the importance of novelty and exploration in a relationship. According to them, trying new things with your spouse not only creates shared experiences but also releases dopamine, the "feel-good" hormone, which can reignite passion and energy in your marriage. 2. Communicate Deeply In the busyness of life, it's easy for conversations between spouses to revolve around daily routines, responsibilities, and to-do lists. However, meaningful and deep communication is vital for a thriving marriage. Set aside dedicated time each week to engage in open and honest conversations with your spouse. Ask thought-provoking questions that delve beneath the surface, such as, "What are your dreams and aspirations?" or "How can I support you better?" Listen attentively, without judgment, and respond with kindness and empathy. By practicing deep communication, you build a stronger emotional connection with your partner, which is essential for a fulfilling marriage. "Marriage is a garden that needs constant nurturing. Deep communication is the water that helps it thrive." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Prioritize Self-Care To have energy for your marriage, you need to prioritize self-care. It's easy to forget about your own needs when you are busy taking care of others, but neglecting self-care can lead to burnout and emotional exhaustion. Take time to rest and recharge. Engage in activities that bring you joy and help you relax. It may be reading a book, taking a long bath, going for a walk in nature, or practicing meditation. By prioritizing self-care, you not only rejuvenate yourself but also bring a positive energy into your marriage. Les and Leslie Parrot affirm this by stating, "Your emotional health affects the health of your marriage. Taking care of yourself allows you to bring your best self to the relationship." Remember, marriage is a journey, and just like any journey, it has its ups and downs. But by embracing adventure, deepening communication, and prioritizing self-care, you can ensure that you don't miss your moment. "The moments you choose to cherish in your marriage can be the turning points that create a lifetime of love and happiness." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

By prioritizing self-care, you not only rejuvenate yourself but also bring a positive energy into your marriage. Les and Leslie Parrot affirm this by stating, "Your emotional health affects the health of your marriage. Taking care of yourself allows you to bring your best self to the relationship." Remember, marriage is a journey, and just like any journey, it has its ups and downs. But by embracing adventure, deepening communication, and prioritizing self-care, you can ensure that you don't miss your moment. "The moments you choose to cherish in your marriage can be the turning points that create a lifetime of love and happiness." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, over the years, the saying has evolved and become more widely used, emphasizing the potential danger of seeking knowledge and information without considering the consequences. It serves as a cautionary reminder that excessive curiosity can lead to unfavorable outcomes. But what about for children? Just because it's popularity in culture is well-known, doesn't mean that it's a fact. Doesn't anything we do with our children deserve to be scrutinized, but also marveled at the same time?

Nothing! So stop being boring and overprotective, and fuel your child forward. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fuel your child forward! "Curiosity is the fuel that propels our children forward on the path of knowledge and discovery." - Kristianne Wargo 1. Create an Environment of Wonder Children are naturally curious, always seeking answers and exploring the world around them. As parents, we can foster this curiosity by creating an environment that encourages questioning, exploration, and discovery. By providing access to books, engaging in conversations, and exposing children to new experiences, we can fuel their imagination and ignite their sense of wonder. "Children are born with a natural sense of curiosity. It is our job as parents to nurture and protect that flame." - Jane Goodall 2. Encourage Risk-Taking Curiosity often leads to taking risks, as children venture into the unknown in search of answers. As parents, we must support and encourage this risk-taking behavior, even though it may make us feel uneasy. By providing a safe space for our children to try new things and make mistakes, we help them build resilience, confidence, and a lifelong love for learning. "Curiosity is the engine of achievement." - Sir Ken Robinson 3. Embrace Open-Ended Questions Asking open-ended questions can stimulate curiosity and encourage deeper thinking in children. Instead of simply providing answers, we should encourage our kids to explore different possibilities and come up with their own solutions. By engaging in meaningful conversations and discussing topics that spark curiosity, we can help our children develop critical thinking skills and a thirst for knowledge. "It is the supreme art of a teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge." - Albert Einstein By nurturing curiosity in our children, we empower them to become lifelong learners and critical thinkers. Let us celebrate their inquisitive nature and provide them with the tools and opportunities to explore the world around them. Citations: - Goodall, Jane. "Curiosity Quotes."

This phrase often encourages us to see the other side of adversity; opportunity. So when the winter blues have you feeling down and unsure, make that lemonade! It's okay to admit that there are days when you just don't feel like doing anything. When the emotional roller coaster has you feeling stuck and unmotivated.

Why does it have to be so hard?  Indeed, the journey to wellness seems riddled with more questions than answers. But what if you shift your perspective in the pursuit of healthy living? Those "what ifs" can get you every time. You think you've escaped the confrontation with overwhelming chaos. Nope! You're in the thick of it. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From conflicting information on diet trends to the constant battle to find time for exercise amidst our hectic schedules, it's no wonder that maintaining a healthy routine can feel like an uphill battle. Rather than becoming overwhelmed by the colossal task of adopting a healthier lifestyle, here are three simple steps to capture the moment and make the decision right in the moment: The K.I.S.S. ~ Capture the moment! 1. Start Small, Start Now: Often, we find ourselves waiting for the perfect moment to begin our journey towards better health. However, waiting for the stars to align will only delay our progress. Instead, take a leap of faith and start small. Incorporate a 15-minute walk or swap out sugary sodas for herbal tea. Remember, every small step counts towards a larger transformation. "It's the small steps that lead to big changes. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Find Your Support System: Navigating the chaos of healthy living can be easier with the support of like-minded individuals. Seek out a fitness buddy or join a community that shares your goal of achieving a healthier lifestyle. Surround yourself with positivity and encouragement, which will help you stay motivated during challenging times. Remember, you're not alone on this journey! 3. Embrace Flexibility: Healthy living doesn't mean having a rigid, strict lifestyle. Allow yourself some flexibility to indulge occasionally and enjoy life's little pleasures. Adopt a balanced approach that allows for occasional treats while staying committed to making healthier choices overall. In the end, embracing the chaos that accompanies healthy living can be a catalyst for personal growth and transformation. Shift your perspective, take small steps, find support, and embrace flexibility. Remember, the journey towards a healthier you is not about perfection but about progress. "The key is finding the gateway that extinguishes your excuses and elevates your 'why' to live a life well-lived!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  So, let's take a step forward today and seize the chaos as an opportunity to embark on a remarkable journey towards a healthier, happier life.

Why does it have to be so hard?  Indeed, the journey to wellness seems riddled with more questions than answers. But what if you shift your perspective in the pursuit of healthy living? Those "what ifs" can get you every time. You think you've escaped the confrontation with overwhelming chaos. Nope! You're in the thick of it. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    From conflicting information on diet trends to the constant battle to find time for exercise amidst our hectic schedules, it's no wonder that maintaining a healthy routine can feel like an uphill battle. Rather than becoming overwhelmed by the colossal task of adopting a healthier lifestyle, here are three simple steps to capture the moment and make the decision right in the moment: The K.I.S.S. ~ Capture the moment! 1. Start Small, Start Now: Often, we find ourselves waiting for the perfect moment to begin our journey towards better health. However, waiting for the stars to align will only delay our progress. Instead, take a leap of faith and start small. Incorporate a 15-minute walk or swap out sugary sodas for herbal tea. Remember, every small step counts towards a larger transformation. "It's the small steps that lead to big changes. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Find Your Support System: Navigating the chaos of healthy living can be easier with the support of like-minded individuals. Seek out a fitness buddy or join a community that shares your goal of achieving a healthier lifestyle. Surround yourself with positivity and encouragement, which will help you stay motivated during challenging times. Remember, you're not alone on this journey! 3. Embrace Flexibility: Healthy living doesn't mean having a rigid, strict lifestyle. Allow yourself some flexibility to indulge occasionally and enjoy life's little pleasures. Adopt a balanced approach that allows for occasional treats while staying committed to making healthier choices overall. In the end, embracing the chaos that accompanies healthy living can be a catalyst for personal growth and transformation. Shift your perspective, take small steps, find support, and embrace flexibility. Remember, the journey towards a healthier you is not about perfection but about progress. "The key is finding the gateway that extinguishes your excuses and elevates your 'why' to live a life well-lived!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  So, let's take a step forward today and seize the chaos as an opportunity to embark on a remarkable journey towards a healthier, happier life.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As nature dips into its wintry slumber, we find ourselves facing the cold winds and the barren landscapes that come with this season. It's easy to get weighed down by the challenges and setbacks, but it is during these times that our true strength shines through. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Every individual journeys through their own unique winters, facing personal battles that may seem insurmountable. Yet, we must remember that within every storm lies an opportunity for growth and resilience. It is during these cold, dark moments that our character is forged, and our spirit shines the brightest. "The human spirit is an unstoppable force, capable of conquering any storm." These words serve as a reminder that no matter how difficult life becomes, we possess an unwavering spirit within us, ready to face any adversity. Instead of succumbing to the pressures of our circumstances, we can channel that inner strength and allow it to propel us forward. The key to thriving in harsh conditions is to cultivate a mindset of resilience and determination. It's about consciously choosing to embrace the storms rather than being consumed by them. Just like the trees that stand tall in the face of winter's onslaught, we, too, can find the strength to weather the storms and flourish. The K.I.S.S. ~ Against all odds! Just as the majestic eagles soar into storms, we too can draw inspiration from these magnificent creatures. Eagles are not deterred by the ferocity of the storm; instead, they rise above it, using the currents of the wind to their advantage. In the face of adversity, they spread their wings wide, harnessing the power of the storm to propel them even higher. Like the eagles, we must not fear the storms that life sends our way, but rather embrace them as opportunities for growth and transformation. By harnessing the power within us, we can rise above the challenges, gaining a new perspective and soaring to new heights of resilience and strength. Remember, the challenges we face are not meant to break us, but rather to mold us into the best versions of ourselves. It is through perseverance that we gain the strength to rise above our circumstances, unyielding in our pursuit of happiness and fulfillment. Every setback we encounter is an opportunity for growth, a chance to learn, adapt, and become empowered. As we traverse the wintry landscapes of life, let us embrace the storms with open hearts and unwavering determination. Let us remind ourselves that the cold winds and icy roads are temporary, and that the warmth of spring will eventually grace our lives again. So, keep treading water, finding strength in every wave that crashes against you, and thrive against all odds. Remember, the storms may be fierce, but you are fiercer still. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Believe in yourself, for within you lies the power to conquer the toughest winters and emerge stronger, wiser, and more resilient than ever before." Let us brave the storm together and emerge on the other side, stronger, bolder, and more alive than ever. Winter may be harsh, but within us lies the eternal spirit of spring, ready to bloom when the time is right.   "Be present. Be incredible.

We resist situations and tasks with all our might, unaware of God's presence. How can you accept the season God has you in? We don't always know why we are where we are. But it's during these moments that we need to draw closer to God and what His Word teaches us as to how to be content and not lose sight of where God is leading us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The Bible reminds us in Ecclesiastes 3:1, "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." This verse acknowledges the divine order of things and emphasizes the importance of accepting the various seasons of life. It's a gentle nudge from God, reminding us that each chapter of our lives has a purpose. When faced with a season we don't necessarily want or understand, we can find solace in Philippians 4:11-12, where the apostle Paul writes, "I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation." Paul's words carry immense weight as he speaks from a place of personal growth and spiritual maturity. Being content does not mean we become complacent or settle for mediocrity. It means we trust in God's sovereignty and have faith that He will make all things work together for our good (Romans 8:28). Accepting the season we find ourselves in allows us to discern the direction God wants us to take, even when it may not align with our own plans. "Accepting the season God has placed you in is an act of surrender and trust. It is acknowledging that God's ways are higher than yours, and He knows what is best for you. Embracing this truth enables you to focus your energy on discerning God's direction rather than resisting what is happening around you." ~ Kristianne Wargo Indeed, by redirecting our energy, the focus towards discerning God's purpose, we position ourselves to receive His guidance and blessings. Proverbs 16:9 reminds us that "In their hearts, humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps." What stepping stone are you on right now? The K.I.S.S. ~ Take heart! When we are content in the season God has placed us in, we open ourselves up to His divine interventions and unexpected opportunities. So, how can we cultivate contentment amidst challenging circumstances? It begins with having an unwavering confidence in God's love and faithfulness. Psalm 46:10 exhorts us to "be still, and know that I am God." In the stillness of our hearts, we can find peace and assurance that God is working behind the scenes, orchestrating our lives in ways we may not understand. Additionally, prayer and studying God's Word provide us the spiritual sustenance needed to maintain contentment. Romans 15:4 reminds us that "everything that was written in the past was written to teach us so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide, we might have hope." By seeking guidance through prayer and immersing ourselves in scripture, we gain a deeper understanding of God's plan and purpose for our lives. This understanding empowers us to embrace the season we are in, recognizing it as a stepping stone towards growth and transformation. Aaccepting the season God has placed you in is not an easy task. It requires surrendering your will and trusting in His divine plan. However, in doing so, you open ourselves up to an abundance of blessings and the joy that comes from discerning God's direction. As Kristianne Wargo points out, "True contentment lies in knowing that God's timing is perfect and seeking His guidance each step of the way. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" Peter walked on water be of His faith in Jesus Christ, not because of his own doing or strength. So, embrace this truth, trusting in God's love and faithfulness as you navigate this season of life.

The delicate balance of unconditional love requires careful navigation to nurture your child's independence. Picture this: a teenager preparing to embark on their journey to college. They exhibit a mix of excitement and nervousness, eager to spread their wings and explore the world beyond the comfort of their home. As parents, it is our responsibility to guide, encourage, and support their aspirations while also allowing them the freedom to discover their own path. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, what that looks like can be down right frightening for many parents. Most don't want to talk about the "birds and the bees", let alone giving them space and support all at the same time. The idea is a crazy one. How can you let your children soar on wings like eagles without clipping their wings?  Ultimately, it would be great to not worry about any of this. But if you don't think ahead, you're gonna have a kid on your couch for the rest of your life. So, how can you create a nurturing environment that fosters independence while still offering support? The K.I.S.S. ~ Give them space and support! 1. Build an Open Line of Communication: Encouraging your child to express their thoughts, fears, and dreams creates a strong foundation for a healthy parent-child relationship. Listen actively, without judgment, and show them that their opinions and ideas are valued. As Dr. Karen R. Koenig, a licensed psychotherapist and author, advises, "By establishing open lines of communication, you ensure that your child feels comfortable coming to you for advice and guidance, while also giving them the space to make their own choices." 2. Set Boundaries and Give Space: While it’s important to be present and involved in your child's life, it’s equally crucial to give them the space they need to develop their independence. Allow them to make mistakes and learn from them, as this is crucial for personal growth. As Paul A. Meyer, an author and speaker on personal development, wisely said, "You must give up the life you planned in order to have the life that is waiting for you." It’s about striking a balance between offering guidance and giving them room to explore their own passions and interests. 3. Encourage Self-Reliance: Encouraging your child to believe in themselves and their abilities is essential for building their confidence. Provide opportunities for them to take on responsibilities and make decisions. This develops their problem-solving skills and self-reliance. As Kristianne Wargo, a parenting expert, emphasizes, "By empowering our children to trust their instincts and make choices, we equip them with the tools and confidence to succeed in life." Celebrate their achievements, no matter how small, and let them know that you believe in their potential. "Believe in your child regardless of the result!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When you find the delicate balance of unconditional love, the cornerstone of parenting has been set. It's about being a guiding presence while also encouraging independence.

The delicate balance of unconditional love requires careful navigation to nurture your child's independence. Picture this: a teenager preparing to embark on their journey to college. They exhibit a mix of excitement and nervousness, eager to spread their wings and explore the world beyond the comfort of their home. As parents, it is our responsibility to guide, encourage, and support their aspirations while also allowing them the freedom to discover their own path. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, what that looks like can be down right frightening for many parents. Most don't want to talk about the "birds and the bees", let alone giving them space and support all at the same time. The idea is a crazy one. How can you let your children soar on wings like eagles without clipping their wings?  Ultimately, it would be great to not worry about any of this. But if you don't think ahead, you're gonna have a kid on your couch for the rest of your life. So, how can you create a nurturing environment that fosters independence while still offering support? The K.I.S.S. ~ Give them space and support! 1. Build an Open Line of Communication: Encouraging your child to express their thoughts, fears, and dreams creates a strong foundation for a healthy parent-child relationship. Listen actively, without judgment, and show them that their opinions and ideas are valued. As Dr. Karen R. Koenig, a licensed psychotherapist and author, advises, "By establishing open lines of communication, you ensure that your child feels comfortable coming to you for advice and guidance, while also giving them the space to make their own choices." 2. Set Boundaries and Give Space: While it’s important to be present and involved in your child's life, it’s equally crucial to give them the space they need to develop their independence. Allow them to make mistakes and learn from them, as this is crucial for personal growth. As Paul A. Meyer, an author and speaker on personal development, wisely said, "You must give up the life you planned in order to have the life that is waiting for you." It’s about striking a balance between offering guidance and giving them room to explore their own passions and interests. 3. Encourage Self-Reliance: Encouraging your child to believe in themselves and their abilities is essential for building their confidence. Provide opportunities for them to take on responsibilities and make decisions. This develops their problem-solving skills and self-reliance. As Kristianne Wargo, a parenting expert, emphasizes, "By empowering our children to trust their instincts and make choices, we equip them with the tools and confidence to succeed in life." Celebrate their achievements, no matter how small, and let them know that you believe in their potential. "Believe in your child regardless of the result!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When you find the delicate balance of unconditional love, the cornerstone of parenting has been set. It's about being a guiding presence while also encouraging independence. As parents, we must remember that our role evolves over time, gradually shifting from directing every step to becoming a pillar of support for our children as they navigate their own paths.

It's easy to feel overwhelmed and defeated, but what if you had the power to count it all joy? In this ever-changing world, you may not have control over the things that happen to you, but you do have control over how you respond to them. It's a choice you make – a choice to find joy amidst the chaos. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    James 1:2-3 reminds us, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance." These words offer valuable insight into the power of joy in difficult times. When we view our struggles through the lens of joy, we unlock a strength that helps us navigate the challenges with grace. When life knocks you down and it feels impossible to get back on your feet, take a moment to count it all joy. Yes, it may seem illogical or even unfair, but the truth is, every hurdle is an opportunity for growth and transformation. Embracing joy in the face of adversity allows you to turn setbacks into stepping stones towards a brighter future. American psychologist William James once said, "The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another." This rings true when we consider the concept of counting it all joy. Instead of dwelling on the negativity and despair that can easily consume your mind, you can consciously choose to focus on the positive aspects of your situation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Count it all joy! Counting it all joy doesn't mean pretending that everything is perfect. It means shifting your perspective and finding gratitude in the midst of trials. It means acknowledging the pain and difficulties while actively seeking out the silver linings. As Viktor Frankl, an Austrian psychiatrist, famously said, “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances." When we count it all joy, we open ourselves up to new possibilities and cultivate a resilient spirit. It's like we're mining for it. We learn to see obstacles as opportunities for growth rather than insurmountable barriers. We discover our own strength and ability to overcome even the toughest of challenges. In essence, counting it all joy becomes a catalyst for personal growth, leading us to become the best versions of ourselves. So, even when life throws its curveballs, remember that this too shall pass. In the grand scheme of things, the challenges you face today will fade away, making space for brighter days ahead. It's often said that you have to go through the CRAP (Challenges, Rejections, Adversities, and Problems) to get to where you are meant to be. So why not count it all joy, knowing that every painful step brings you closer to your ultimate destination? Author Marianne Williamson beautifully captures the essence of counting it all joy: "Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are." So, let us recognize the goodness in every situation, embrace the joy that awaits us, and appreciate the transformative power of counting it all joy. As challenging as it may be, let's choose joy. Let's choose to see the beauty amidst chaos, the opportunities within setbacks, and the growth inherent in every trial. Count it all joy, for within that choice lies the potential for a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. Remember, as Alexander Graham Bell once said, "When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us." So, count it all joy, and embrace the incredible journey that awaits you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Then the pressure mounts, and we can't move forward simply because we are frozen in time. Take the pressure off. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Give yourself permission to love yourself where you are and then be encouraged to take one step each moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take it moment by moment! If you are going to break free from the constant burden of unrealstic expectations, you are going to have to make those shifts. And most of the time, it's not the BIG shifts. It's the small pivots. So let's look at what you can do to stop wondering if you will reach your goals, and actually doing it. 1. Love Yourself Where You Are: It's essential to begin the journey toward your goals with self-compassion and acceptance. Instead of fixating on your current shortcomings or past mistakes, you must learn to love and appreciate yourself as you are. Kristianne Wargo, a leading expert in personal growth, wisely advises, "Give yourself the permission to love yourself where you are and then be encouraged to take one step each moment." Recognize that progress is the sum of many small steps taken individually but consistently over a period of time. And with gradual processes brings a sense of balance and control leaving behind overwhelm and perfectionism. 2. Focus on the Present Moment: Oftentimes, we become overwhelmed by the enormity of our goals, leading to feelings of discouragement or being stuck. The key to alleviating this pressure is to shift your perspective to the present moment, rather than dwelling on the end result. Kristianne reminds us, "Don't look at the whole day, let alone the whole result. See what's right in front of you and make the right choice" By breaking our goals into manageable daily or even hourly actions, we can sustain a sense of accomplishment and motivation, fueling our progress without the weight of undue pressure. 3. Embrace Patience and Small Victories: In our fast-paced society, we are conditioned to seek instant gratification. However, true personal growth and long-term success take time. Patience is a virtue that's often overlooked in pursuit of quick results. Remember, "You didn't get to where you are in a day, so it will take time," as wisely put by Kristianne Wargo. Celebrate every small victory along the way, no matter how seemingly insignificant. These milestones are the building blocks of progress and can provide the encouragement needed to keep pushing forward. "Progress provides positive prompting and persuasion." ~ Kristianne Wargo  You have got to figure out how to get to the other side. Rather than allowing yourself to be consumed by the pressure of immediate success, let's have a shift in your mindset to one of self-compassion, present-moment focus, and patience. By implementing these strategies, we can alleviate the burden of unattainable expectations and create a healthier, happier every day. Remember, progress is more valuable than perfection. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Rome wasn't built in a day. You didn't get to where you are in a day, so it will take time. Be patient with yourself. Love yourself in the process. Make the right choice in the moment. You can accomplish your healthy lifestyle, but it will take time. Give yourself the opportunity to train for life and love your journey.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Give yourself permission to love yourself where you are and then be encouraged to take one step each moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take it moment by moment! If you are going to break free from the constant burden of unrealstic expectations, you are going to have to make those shifts. And most of the time, it's not the BIG shifts. It's the small pivots. So let's look at what you can do to stop wondering if you will reach your goals, and actually doing it. 1. Love Yourself Where You Are: It's essential to begin the journey toward your goals with self-compassion and acceptance. Instead of fixating on your current shortcomings or past mistakes, you must learn to love and appreciate yourself as you are. Kristianne Wargo, a leading expert in personal growth, wisely advises, "Give yourself the permission to love yourself where you are and then be encouraged to take one step each moment." Recognize that progress is the sum of many small steps taken individually but consistently over a period of time. And with gradual processes brings a sense of balance and control leaving behind overwhelm and perfectionism. 2. Focus on the Present Moment: Oftentimes, we become overwhelmed by the enormity of our goals, leading to feelings of discouragement or being stuck. The key to alleviating this pressure is to shift your perspective to the present moment, rather than dwelling on the end result. Kristianne reminds us, "Don't look at the whole day, let alone the whole result. See what's right in front of you and make the right choice" By breaking our goals into manageable daily or even hourly actions, we can sustain a sense of accomplishment and motivation, fueling our progress without the weight of undue pressure. 3. Embrace Patience and Small Victories: In our fast-paced society, we are conditioned to seek instant gratification. However, true personal growth and long-term success take time. Patience is a virtue that's often overlooked in pursuit of quick results. Remember, "You didn't get to where you are in a day, so it will take time," as wisely put by Kristianne Wargo. Celebrate every small victory along the way, no matter how seemingly insignificant. These milestones are the building blocks of progress and can provide the encouragement needed to keep pushing forward. "Progress provides positive prompting and persuasion." ~ Kristianne Wargo  You have got to figure out how to get to the other side. Rather than allowing yourself to be consumed by the pressure of immediate success, let's have a shift in your mindset to one of self-compassion, present-moment focus, and patience. By implementing these strategies, we can alleviate the burden of unattainable expectations and create a healthier, happier every day. Remember, progress is more valuable than perfection. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Rome wasn't built in a day. You didn't get to where you are in a day, so it will take time. Be patient with yourself. Love yourself in the process. Make the right choice in the moment. You can accomplish your healthy lifestyle, but it will take time. Give yourself the opportunity to train for life and love your journey.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

How can you create a ripple effect and transform the world you touch? It comes when you embrace the warmth within.  But sometimes, it feels like an insurmountable task. You keep dragging yourself out of bed only to feel like you can never get ahead. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In moments like these, when the world outside seems cold and unwelcoming, it becomes crucial to tap into the fire burning in your heart. It's time to recognize that what you do, no matter how small, matters. Each step forward, every act of courage, is a testament to your determination and strength. "Don't let what could not be done yesterday put out the fire burning in your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo The past does not define your potential. We are constantly evolving beings, capable of growth and change. So, let's ignite our spirits and take a leap of faith towards the life we envision. The journey in life is not always easy, and setbacks may arise along the way. You and I were never promised perfection. But in those times of struggle, it's essential to cultivate a mindset of resilience and perseverance. As author Maya Angelou shared, "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it." The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the warmth within! It's natural to doubt yourself or question your abilities when faced with challenges. However, it's important to remember that greatness lies on the other side of fear. As the legendary tennis player, Arthur Ashe, wisely said, "Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." Let these words serve as a reminder that you possess the tools necessary to create the change you seek. You just need to take that first step, no matter how small. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When embarking on your everyday journey, it can be beneficial to surround yourself with like-minded individuals who uplift and support you. Seek guidance and encouragement from mentors, friends, or even online communities, because they can provide the motivation you need to keep moving forward, to keep taking that next step. Take A.I.M. - action ignites motivation. After all, as Helen Keller once said, "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." As you embrace the warmth within and move towards the life you dream and desire, it's crucial to acknowledge your progress along the way. Celebrate even the smallest victories and use them as stepping stones toward a better tomorrow. As author and motivational speaker, Zig Ziglar encouraged, "It's not what happens to you that determines how far you will go in life; it is how you handle what happens to you." Let the fire in your heart burn bright. Take a deep breath and remember that you have the power to create your now, the life you envision. So embrace each day as an opportunity for growth and know that no matter what, what you do matters.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What do you see? Do you see the flaws and imperfections, or a person worthy of love and compassion? What more in the name of love do you need to see? Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a man we honor today, advocated for racial equality and justice in the Civil Rights Movement. But his approach was so different in that it was deeply rooted in Christian principles and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Whether you are a believer or not, this man changed the world.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    He taught us the importance of loving our neighbors as ourselves. But what if you can't truly love others if you don't first love yourself? So what do you see? Do you see wrinkles, an aging person, and one who has failed more than succeeded? Do you see more of what you should have done versus what you can do? Do you see a failed mom because her children didn't turn out a certain way? But here's the truth: your reflection says a lot about how you judge yourself and how you judge others. Prejudice doesn't come from knowledge, but from assumptions. Most of the time, those assumptions are wrong because we only see the surface-level markings and not the compassion in one's heart. Dr. King believed that each of us was created in the image of God as stated in the Bible, and that we should love and treat each other equally with respect and dignity, regardless of race or background. His teachings remind us that love knows no bounds, and it begins with who you see in the mirror. In his famous "I Have a Dream" speech delivered during the historic March on Washington in 1963, Dr. King spoke of his dream for a future where people are not judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. This vision is reflected in Galatians 3:28. 28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (Galatians 3:28) It's time that we build bridges, and it starts with you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build bridges! So today, I challenge you to look at your reflection. Go deeper than the quick reaction of "I've got all the friends." But how much does your heart really see the person in front of you? How much do you see yourself? To honor Dr. King's legacy of love, let's start by looking inward, going beyond the reflections of what we lack, and truly appreciating the reflection of our gifts. 1. Practice self-compassion: Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding you offer to others. Instead of focusing on your perceived failures, acknowledge your past accomplishments and the strengths you possess. Embrace your unique qualities and appreciate the person you are today. 2. Connect with others authentically: Take the time to truly listen and understand the people around you. Instead of making assumptions based on appearances or first impressions, strive to see beyond the surface-level. Show empathy and look for the compassion in others' hearts, just as Dr. King did. 3. Challenge your biases: We all have unconscious biases that influence our perceptions of ourselves and others. Take a moment to reflect on your own biases and question their validity. Educate yourself about different cultures, backgrounds, and experiences to gain a broader understanding of humanity's diversity. Remember, judgment based on assumptions often leads to misunderstandings and missed opportunities for connection. Dr. King's teachings on love and equality continue to guide us today. As we look within ourselves and challenge our biases, we can create a world where reflection is no longer clouded by judgment but illuminated by love and respect. One of the things Dr. King said, "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Are you willing to build bridges and go beyond the failures of humanity? Artist Bono once said, "I've always believed love to be the highest frequency. That's all Dr. King ever talked about." In 1984, he and his band U2 released the song "Pride (In the Name of Love)" to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy. The song became a powerful anthem for equality and justice, reminding us of the ongoing fight for love and compassion in the world. So, today, as you reflect on Dr. King's teachings of love, equality, respect, and peace, look in the mirror and challenge yourself to embrace unconditional love for yourself so that you may truly love your neighbors as yourself. "The time is always right to do what is right." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Note: "In the Name of Love" is a song by U2 from their 1984 album "The Unforgettable Fire." The song was written by Bono to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his fight for equality and justice.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Come and find rest in your weariness. Too much of ourselves has become a slave to the demands placed upon us, allowing the chaos and expectations to dictate our emotions and drain our spirits. In those moments, it becomes clear that you are not meant to endure life's challenges alone. You are designed to walk hand in hand, with the support of others, and above all, the support of our heavenly Father. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

They remind you that you do not have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders or face life's challenges in isolation. In a world that constantly demands your attention and exhausts your spirit, it is easy to forget that true strength does not come from your own efforts alone. You may fall into the trap of believing that you need to have all the answers and shoulder all the burdens yourself. But in doing so, you only set yourself up for further defeat and exhaustion. Jesus invites you to redefine your approach to life's trials. He beckons you not to rely solely on your own knowledge and understanding, but to trust in the restorative power of His presence. It is through God's unwavering love and support that you can find true rest for your weary soul. In your moments of defeat, instead of slumping further under the weight, let yourself lean into the comfort and strength that God provides. The K.I.S.S. ~ Find rest in your weariness! While this invitation to find rest in God does not guarantee that sleepless nights or hardships will vanish instantly, it offers you a glimmer of hope and a renewed perspective. It reminds you that even in the midst of life's storms, you can find solace in knowing that God is ever-present; the same today, yesterday, and tomorrow. When you trust in his guidance and draw strength from his love, you experience a profound sense of rest within your soul. It is a rest that transcends the physical realm and offers a sanctuary in the depths of your being. As you journey through life, remember that true rest is not found in the external circumstances or the world's expectations. Rather, it is discovered in becoming still, surrendering control, and finding refuge in the arms of a loving God. When you allow yourself to lean into His strength and invite Him into your moments of defeat, you discover a peace that surpasses all understanding. So, when defeat threatens to leave you slumped over and depleted, turn your eyes upon Jesus: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28" Be reminded that your strength lies not in your own abilities, but in the steadfast love and grace of your Savior, who offers you true rest for your weary soul.   "Be present.

If you want to have a fabulous marriage, learn how to be a spectacular spouse. Marriage is a hamster wheel and roller coaster of a ride. It's everything mixed up so beautifully, just as your vows were written. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But, most of us don't listen really well on the wedding day. We are in frantic mode, trying to make sure we don't forget anything. However, life becomes real after that.  And then, you have to figure out how to make it work, or you are under piles of paperwork. Marriage is an incredible gift if used and treated well. Yet, once again, we don't treat our spouses the way they deserve. And we aren't that spectacular ourselves. So if you want to enjoy a harmonious marriage, not everything perfect, but beautifully intertwined, you have to learn how to be a spectacular spouse. And that means being better by 1% every day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be better by 1% every day! Now, you can be the one who points fingers and says that everything in your marriage is your spouse's fault. But marriage is a two-way street, and you make up half of that. So, let's look at what it's like to be a spectacular spouse. 1. Have a Harmonious Heart One of the cornerstones of any successful relationship is harmonious communication. To become a spectacular spouse, it is vital to enhance your communication skills by actively listening, expressing your own thoughts and feelings, and creating a safe space for open dialogue. Harmonizing Hearts involves creating an environment where both partners can feel heard, understood, and validated. This means actively listening to your spouse with genuine interest and empathy, allowing their thoughts and feelings to resonate with your own. It involves reflecting on what they have shared to ensure that you truly understand their perspective. By doing so, you are building a bridge between your hearts and fostering a deeper emotional connection. In addition to listening, effective communication requires expressing yourself honestly and respectfully. Instead of bottling up your concerns or frustrations, learn to communicate them calmly and constructively. By using "I" statements and focusing on your own emotions and needs, you can avoid blame and encourage a more collaborative approach. For example, instead of saying, "You never help with household chores," you can say, "I feel overwhelmed with the household responsibilities. I would appreciate it if we could find a way to share the workload." Remember, harmonious communication is not about avoiding conflict, but rather addressing it in a way that promotes understanding and resolution. By harmonizing hearts through active listening and mindful expression, you can create a solid foundation for a spectacular marriage. 2. Show Gestures of Love and Affection Small gestures can often make the biggest impact when it comes to strengthening your marriage. Spectacular spouses understand the significance of expressing love and affection regularly. Surprise your spouse with thoughtful gestures or acts of kindness that show you are thinking about them. Leave sweet notes in unexpected places like their lunchbox or vehicle, reminding them of your love and appreciation. Plan a date night or a weekend getaway tailored to your partner's interests and needs. Whether it's cooking their favorite meal together, going on a nature hike, or enjoying a relaxing spa day, focus on creating special moments that strengthen your bond. Furthermore, physical affection should never be underestimated. Make sure to cuddle, hug, hold hands, and kiss each other regularly. These simple acts of intimacy help create a strong emotional connection and reinforce your love for one another. 3. Prioritize Treasured Hours In the midst of our busy lives, it's all too easy for precious moments with our partners to slip away. But to truly become a spectacular spouse, it's essential to prioritize treasured hours and create opportunities for meaningful connections. When we prioritize treasured hours, we're acknowledging the importance of quality time spent together. It's not just about the quantity of time, but rather the depth of connection and the shared experiences that make a difference in our relationships. Make a conscious effort to set aside dedicated moments for your partner. Create a special space or time frame where both of you can escape the distractions of daily life and focus exclusively on each other. During this uninterrupted time, engage in heart-to-heart conversations, explore each other's dreams and aspirations, or simply bask in the joy of each other's presence. Planning activities that resonate with both partners can further enhance the quality of your time together. It could be as simple as taking a leisurely stroll hand-in-hand or preparing a romantic dinner at home. The key is to prioritize each other's presence and create cherished memories that reflect your mutual love and appreciation. Remember, the significance of treasured hours lies not in grand gestures, but in the intention and thoughtfulness behind them. By prioritizing treasured hours, you'll be nurturing the emotional and physical bonds that are the bedrock of a spectacular marriage. As you embark on your journey to becoming a spectacular spouse, remember that it takes consistent effort, dedication, and unconditional love. Embrace the opportunity to grow together. "A spectacular spouse breathes life into their marriage through intentional words and actions." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's common to ask yourself if you're being too strict or if you're being too lenient. Are you a confused parent? Because, in reality, most of us parents are confused. We try to make sure we're setting the right foundation for our child's future. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But let's be real - there's no guarantee. And I know that doesn't make me feel good or confident. No wonder we are confused. So join the party! That's why many parents share the same concerns. However, the good news is that there are practical steps you can take to feel more confident in your ability to raise your kids. Trust yourself more. The K.I.S.S. ~ T.R.U.S.T. yourself more! As a parent, you know your child better than anyone else. Trust yourself more and have confidence that you are making the best possible decisions for your child. Remember, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting. What works for one child may not work for another. Trust that you have a deep understanding of your child's needs and adapt your parenting style to suit their individuality. 1. TALK Openly communicate with your child, engage in meaningful conversations, and foster a trusting relationship through effective communication. Engage in open and honest communication with your child. This involves creating a safe space to share thoughts, concerns, and emotions. When you build a healthy dialogue, you build trust and strengthen the parent-child relationship. 2. REASSESS Reassess your parenting approaches and constantly seek opportunities for growth and improvement. Regularly reassess your parenting approaches and strategies. This involves reflecting on your actions, acknowledging what is working well, and identifying areas for improvement. By being open to self-reflection and making necessary tweaks, you can feel more assured in your decision-making. 3. UNDERSTAND Understand that each child is unique and embrace their individuality to build a strong connection. Spend the time to understand each child's individuality, needs, and perspectives. This involves empathy, active listening, and taking the time to truly comprehend your child's thoughts and feelings. By cultivating a deep understanding, you can respond sensitively and effectively to your child's unique requirements. 4. SEEK Seek support and knowledge from fellow parents, support groups, or professionals who can provide guidance and reassurance. Recognize the importance of seeking out help from others. This includes reaching out to other parents, joining support groups, or seeking guidance from professionals. By connecting with a community of support, you can find reassurance, gain valuable insights, and learn from shared experiences. You aren't doing it alone, even though, at times, it does feel pretty lonely. 5. TIME Take the time to reflect on your parenting journey and take time to spend time with your child.  Allow yourself time to rest, recharge, give yourself a break when you need it, and practice self-care. Parenting is demanding, and taking care of one's own physical, mental, and emotional well-being is vital. But on the flip side, you need to spend time with your child. Do your best to have "real time" together. And that's when you hang out with no expectations from you, but simply to be present. You need to see and hear your child. "Parenting is not about being perfect; it's about building a relationship. Choose unconditional love, and the rest will follow." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, parenting is a journey that evolves over time.

It's common to ask yourself if you're being too strict or if you're being too lenient. Are you a confused parent? Because, in reality, most of us parents are confused. We try to make sure we're setting the right foundation for our child's future. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But let's be real - there's no guarantee. And I know that doesn't make me feel good or confident. No wonder we are confused. So join the party! That's why many parents share the same concerns. However, the good news is that there are practical steps you can take to feel more confident in your ability to raise your kids. Trust yourself more. The K.I.S.S. ~ T.R.U.S.T. yourself more! As a parent, you know your child better than anyone else. Trust yourself more and have confidence that you are making the best possible decisions for your child. Remember, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting. What works for one child may not work for another. Trust that you have a deep understanding of your child's needs and adapt your parenting style to suit their individuality. 1. TALK Openly communicate with your child, engage in meaningful conversations, and foster a trusting relationship through effective communication. Engage in open and honest communication with your child. This involves creating a safe space to share thoughts, concerns, and emotions. When you build a healthy dialogue, you build trust and strengthen the parent-child relationship. 2. REASSESS Reassess your parenting approaches and constantly seek opportunities for growth and improvement. Regularly reassess your parenting approaches and strategies. This involves reflecting on your actions, acknowledging what is working well, and identifying areas for improvement. By being open to self-reflection and making necessary tweaks, you can feel more assured in your decision-making. 3. UNDERSTAND Understand that each child is unique and embrace their individuality to build a strong connection. Spend the time to understand each child's individuality, needs, and perspectives. This involves empathy, active listening, and taking the time to truly comprehend your child's thoughts and feelings. By cultivating a deep understanding, you can respond sensitively and effectively to your child's unique requirements. 4. SEEK Seek support and knowledge from fellow parents, support groups, or professionals who can provide guidance and reassurance. Recognize the importance of seeking out help from others. This includes reaching out to other parents, joining support groups, or seeking guidance from professionals. By connecting with a community of support, you can find reassurance, gain valuable insights, and learn from shared experiences. You aren't doing it alone, even though, at times, it does feel pretty lonely. 5. TIME Take the time to reflect on your parenting journey and take time to spend time with your child.  Allow yourself time to rest, recharge, give yourself a break when you need it, and practice self-care. Parenting is demanding, and taking care of one's own physical, mental, and emotional well-being is vital. But on the flip side, you need to spend time with your child. Do your best to have "real time" together. And that's when you hang out with no expectations from you, but simply to be present. You need to see and hear your child. "Parenting is not about being perfect; it's about building a relationship. Choose unconditional love, and the rest will follow." ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, parenting is a journey that evolves over time. Embrace the fact that you will make mistakes along the way, but also understand that those mistakes are opportunities for growth...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1311</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,dads,discipline,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,inspiration,joy,kids,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/920ccebc2214a46dc374378bf6a7b563.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3273 Give Your Best!</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3273-give-your-best--58261715</link><description><![CDATA[In a world filled with exponential comparisons, it's easy to find ourselves settling for half-hearted efforts.

We are worthy simply because we exist. We are deserving of love, respect, and success, regardless of our thoughts or external judgments.

We think that unless we are constantly pushing ourselves to the limit, we won't measure up. But in reality, the only person you need to prove anything to is yourself.

You begin to operate from a place of peace and gratitude with one true purpose in mind. And when you live authentically God's way, you are able to make a greater impact on the world you touch. Giving your best doesn't mean constantly striving for perfection. It means showing up authentically and fully present in every moment. It means being intentional in your actions and pursuing excellence in everything you do, whether it's in your personal relationships, your career, or your own personal growth. So let go of the need to settle for mediocrity or so-so. You are worthy of greatness. Embrace the truth that you are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Get some traction with the art of habit stacking.  Too often, we find ourselves racing against the clock, trying to accomplish as much as possible in the shortest amount of time.

It's called your habits. What a blessing it is to have the ability to have habits that work for you, or at least, that is how it should be. But isn't that why you're here? You want to create healthier habits that lead to transformation in the best way possible.  Habits are the daily routines and rituals that shape our lives. They can either be our greatest allies or our biggest obstacles. The key is to harness the power of habits and stack them strategically to create a foundation for success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stack your habits! By doing so, you can optimize your time, increase productivity, and ultimately transform your life in the best way possible. So, what exactly does it mean to stack your habits? It refers to the practice of linking multiple habits together, creating a sequence that, eventually, becomes effortless over time. By leveraging the power of habit stacking, you can efficiently tackle multiple tasks and goals without feeling overwhelmed. Here are three practical ways to implement habit stacking into your daily life: 1. Anchor Your New Habit to an Old Habit (that is working for you) Morning Routine: Start your day with intention by creating a morning routine that sets the tone for the rest of the day. Begin with a simple habit that works now and anchor a new one. After you go to the bathroom, you wash your hands, brush your teeth, and now you add in a stretch.  Once you establish that new habit, then stack it with another new habit. By linking habits together, you'll establish a momentum that carries you through the day with focus and purpose. 2. Do It Every Day Consistency is key when it comes to sustainable change. You need to consistently do the routine you establish. And when you do this, your daily life becomes more manageable and less overwhelming. 3. Celebrate the Progress Remember, small wins are big accomplishments. Those are your daily trophies. Wouldn't it be nice to get a trophy for stretching every morning? Imagine your bookcases! Progress comes with consistency. "Habits are not just routines, they're building blocks for the life you desire." ~ Kristianne Wargo By intentionally stacking your habits, that's one way to create your now! Build that solid foundation when it comes to your health and well-being. Take the time to evaluate your current habits and start weaving them together in a way that propels you forward. It's all about that one step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace the art of habit stacking and experience your life as it transforms.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The K.I.S.S. ~ Stack your habits! By doing so, you can optimize your time, increase productivity, and ultimately transform your life in the best way possible. So, what exactly does it mean to stack your habits? It refers to the practice of linking multiple habits together, creating a sequence that, eventually, becomes effortless over time. By leveraging the power of habit stacking, you can efficiently tackle multiple tasks and goals without feeling overwhelmed. Here are three practical ways to implement habit stacking into your daily life: 1. Anchor Your New Habit to an Old Habit (that is working for you) Morning Routine: Start your day with intention by creating a morning routine that sets the tone for the rest of the day. Begin with a simple habit that works now and anchor a new one. After you go to the bathroom, you wash your hands, brush your teeth, and now you add in a stretch.  Once you establish that new habit, then stack it with another new habit. By linking habits together, you'll establish a momentum that carries you through the day with focus and purpose. 2. Do It Every Day Consistency is key when it comes to sustainable change. You need to consistently do the routine you establish. And when you do this, your daily life becomes more manageable and less overwhelming. 3. Celebrate the Progress Remember, small wins are big accomplishments. Those are your daily trophies. Wouldn't it be nice to get a trophy for stretching every morning? Imagine your bookcases! Progress comes with consistency. "Habits are not just routines, they're building blocks for the life you desire." ~ Kristianne Wargo By intentionally stacking your habits, that's one way to create your now! Build that solid foundation when it comes to your health and well-being. Take the time to evaluate your current habits and start weaving them together in a way that propels you forward. It's all about that one step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace the art of habit stacking and experience your life as it transforms.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's the foundation upon which we build our goals, shape our mindset, and drive our actions. Believe! As you know, belief is the power to fuel your determination, especially when you're weary and uncertain.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Belief is a powerful force that propels us beyond our comfort zone and into the realm of possibility. When we choose to believe, we are essentially declaring our unwavering faith in ourselves and our abilities. It is this unwavering belief that enables us to take each day as an opportunity to make wise choices that align with our goals and desires. "Belief is the spark that ignites the fire within, propelling you towards your dreams." - Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Believe! It is crucial to understand that our feelings are transitory and should not dictate our beliefs. Feeling tired or unsure does not diminish the power of belief. In fact, it's during these moments of doubt when our belief takes on even greater importance. We must consciously choose to anchor ourselves in the awareness that our feelings do not define us. Instead, we should focus on the unwavering conviction in who we are becoming and the abilities we possess. Belief is not a passive state; it thrives on action. Each step forward, no matter how small, is a testament to our belief in ourselves and our dreams. It is essential to recognize that greatness is not achieved overnight but through consistent, intentional effort. We must hold onto the belief that our continuous pursuit and dedication will ultimately lead us to the pinnacle of success. As we navigate the journey towards our aspirations, we must remind ourselves that our belief in our own worth and potential is unshakable. In moments of weariness, self-doubt, or even failure, belief becomes our guiding light, illuminating the path once again. It is through belief that we cultivate resilience and maintain the unwavering determination to forge ahead, no matter the obstacles we encounter. Embrace the power of belief as your most valuable asset as you chase your dreams. Allow it to infuse each day with renewed purpose, reminding you that you are more than enough. Trust that your belief in yourself will carry you through the highs and lows of the journey, proving that perseverance and resilience are the building blocks of greatness. Belief acts as a catalyst for progress, empowering us to move forward toward our goals even when we feel tired or uncertain. It anchors us in the unwavering faith in our own worth, potential, and abilities. Embrace belief as the unyielding force that propels you towards a journey of greatness. In steadfastly nurturing your belief, you will overcome obstacles, embrace resilience, and ultimately triumph over adversity. Trust in your belief, take action, and witness the incredible transformation that unfolds as you tap into its power.   "Be present. Be incredible.

We find ourselves at a crossroads, standing at the intersection of uncertainty and hope. But it won't be like this for long. Or will it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In those moments, it’s natural for our inner optimist to remind us that the grass is greener on the other side. We cling to the belief that things can only get better, and that a brighter future awaits us. But what if, despite our best efforts, the situation doesn't improve? What if we find ourselves stuck in a seemingly endless rut? It is in those testing times that we must dig deep and find the strength to refocus our efforts and energy. The K.I.S.S. ~ RE-focus! But you and I both know that's easier said than done. You think you have your new year all set, and already, you've been derailed 3 times. You know, maybe this morning was your third time.  However, you can't live in the rearview mirror. At some point, you have to rise up and make a change by challenging yourself to do something that you haven't tried. And I know that's a scary and frightening place to hangout. Yet, it's also full of adventure and wondrous opportunities.  So why not just dive in? 1. JUMP!! It is essential to change our mindset and embrace the power of shifting or pivoting. Often, we become so fixated on what we thought our journey would be that we fail to see the opportunities and possibilities that lie before us. It's time to let go of the rigid expectations you've had and instead embrace the idea of flexibility. JUMP!!! "Life is not a straight line; it is a winding road full of twists and turns. Embrace the detours, for they may lead you to the most incredible destinations." ~ Kristianne Wargo By shifting our thinking and being open to new possibilities, we can transform challenges into opportunities. What you see as impossible now becomes possible. Why? Because you are ready to create your now! Jump!! 2. RE-FOCUS!! When faced with adversity, it becomes crucial to refocus our efforts and energy. It's easy to get caught up in dwelling on what went wrong or fussing over it. And because it didn't meet your expectations, you're ready to call it quits.  But instead, direct your energy towards what you have control over – your actions, your attitude, and your goals. Take inventory of your strengths, talents, and passions. Where can you make a shift and RE-focus your time and energy differently, whether it's acquiring new skills, pursuing a passion project, or exploring different avenues? RE-focusing allows you to take off your expectation glasses and lean in a little more with some gut-reaction glasses. Think of them as 3D glasses. You go see a movie in 3D, but if you don't have the right glasses, you don't see what everyone else gets to see. "RE-focus and take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation, which leads to the details later. Sometimes you get stuck on the details that you don't take A.I.M.!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. BECOME!! As you navigate the path of wisdom and personal development, hold onto who you are becoming while moving forward. It's easy to lose sight of our core values and beliefs when confronted with challenges. We let loose in all the wrong ways during those challenging times. "Stay true to who you are becoming, and trust yourself." ~ Kristianne Wargo  When facing the reality that "it won't be like this for long," dig deep and find the strength to jump, refocus, and become your best selfie.  "In every moment of uncertainty lies the opportunity for growth, change, and your best selfie." ~ Kristianne Wrgo Embrace the journey, for it is in these transformative moments that you'll find the doors you've been searching for.

Get a grip on grace. We are only a few days into the new year and already I hear people complaining about what they can't do, where they can't go, and who they can't find.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    They seem to be struggling with the roller coaster of life. Yet, they're not looking to make any changes, at least that's what their actions show, and they keep getting on the same amusement ride looking searching for the magic key. Unfortunately, many who continue to live this life find themselves exhausted, frustrated, depressed, and anxious all because of what they don't have. However, today, I want to invite you to the table. I want you to sit with me for a moment and not let distractions get in the way. This is your divine appointment to hear exactly what God wants you to hear. But you have to slow down to speed up. When you look in the mirror, who do you see? And I want you to be honest, brutely honest! Do you see a person who is trying to live a life for everyone else with little to give back to herself? Do you see a person who has tired eyes and a heavy heart that pants for rest, but can't find any time? Do you see a person who wants more than where they're at, but has absolutely no idea where to stop in order to start again? God did not create you in His image to destroy the hope He gave you through His Son, Jesus Christ. God did not create you to run ragged, only to put yourself in a corner that you can't escape. God did not create you to look in the mirror and see yourself. God created you so you could see His reflection! The K.I.S.S. ~ Get a grip on grace! My friend, God wants you to see Him in you. But the crazy thing is that...   <ul> <li>you're too busy, </li> <li>you're too in debt, </li> <li>you're too distracted, </li> <li>you're too consumed by the world. </li> <li>You're too.</li> </ul>   God desires for you to know Him and to glorify Him. That is your divine purpose.

I was singing the song "Amazing Grace" in the shower this morning thinking about my dear friend who is walking his last steps of greatness here on earth. Thankfully, the water soothed my tears as they fell from my eyes. Some things just have no words. All you can do is hold them close in your heart, and deeper in your soul. But one thing my dear friend, Dan Miller, taught me, is to "Be still, and know that I am God." ~ Psalm 46:10. And it wasn't with his words or his teachings, it was simply him living. Living a life that showed him how to get a grip on grace. Where are you, my friend? As you sit at the table, what are you struggling with? Give it to God. Don't try to hold it close and think you can do everything by yourself. Go deeper with God and get a grip on grace, the only grace that can give you freedom.  And that doesn't mean you will have all the answers in a snap or by tomorrow morning. It means that when you look at yourself in the mirror, you see a little more of God and a little less of you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Get a grip on grace. We are only a few days into the new year and already I hear people complaining about what they can't do, where they can't go, and who they can't find.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Yet, they're not looking to make any changes, at least that's what their actions show, and they keep getting on the same amusement ride looking searching for the magic key. Unfortunately, many who continue to live this life find themselves exhausted, frustrated, depressed, and anxious all because of what they don't have. However, today, I want to invite you to the table. I want you to sit with me for a moment and not let distractions get in the way. This is your divine appointment to hear exactly what God wants you to hear. But you have to slow down to speed up. When you look in the mirror, who do you see? And I want you to be honest, brutely honest! Do you see a person who is trying to live a life for everyone else with little to give back to herself? Do you see a person who has tired eyes and a heavy heart that pants for rest, but can't find any time? Do you see a person who wants more than where they're at, but has absolutely no idea where to stop in order to start again? God did not create you in His image to destroy the hope He gave you through His Son, Jesus Christ. God did not create you to run ragged, only to put yourself in a corner that you can't escape. God did not create you to look in the mirror and see yourself. God created you so you could see His reflection! The K.I.S.S. ~ Get a grip on grace! My friend, God wants you to see Him in you.

Yet, we yearn for a deeper connection, a more harmonious love for one another. Build stronger bridges. But as you know, this doesn't come easy. It's a combination of intentional actions that eventually builds the bridge of greater love.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But where do you start? Is it even possible? There are many people who believe that once you hit a certain point, there's no other option. Keep what you have (which doesn't seem like much), or drop the gauntlet and get a divorce. And in truth, that's the reality of a lot of people. Maybe it's yours right now. Maybe you have been hanging on by a thread, hoping for something more, but getting nothing.  How can you truly transform your marriage and build stronger bridges? It takes one step at a time to build the bridge. The K.I.S.S. ~ One step at a time! Many times, we want to hurry the process out of desperation. We want to make what isn't good go away, and keep only the good and multiply it. However, those actions have fallen flat, because remember, you've tried everything.  So let's go a little deeper in order to build that bridge one step at a time. 1. See What Your Spouse Sees Not only do we need to open our hearts, but we need to open our eyes. You've gotta see what your spouse sees; otherwise, what you do is simply through your own eyes– which can be misleading. It's not that you don't see what is happening, but it is one-sided. Marriage is a two-way street. So be willing to go two-way, not just driving on the one-way that seems to be easier for you. One of the main ways you can do that is through communication. Communication is the foundation of any successful marriage. Yet, it is often the first thing to deteriorate when couples face challenges. So to build stronger bridges, it's crucial to embrace effective communication. And that being seeing what your spouse sees.  What is your spouse's body language when you greet them after they return home from work? A conference? A night out with their friends? What do your spouse's eyes say when you bring up various topics for discussion? Do you get eye rolls? Do you get a person who leans in more? What is it? When you talk, do you all speak only through texts, or maybe you're on your digital device to keep you occupied? Create a safe space for open dialogue, free from judgment or criticism, which means you have to be open to what your spouse sees. Remember that effective communication is a two-way street. 2. Spend Time Together In the hustle and bustle of life-- you've got the busyness. But do you have the heart?  Let that sink in. Sometimes we are so focused on the honey to-do list that we forget what really matters. Yes, you have to pay attention to all the responsibilities like kids, bills, supper, and laundry, but you can't forget the partner you said you wanted to do it all with. So don't let time slip through the cracks. Schedule those regular date nights or carve out dedicated moments each day for undivided attention. Go to bed to spend time together, whatever you want to do. But these are precious moments and time you'll never get back. Put away the distractions and focus solely on your spouse. Engage in activities to reconnect and nurture your shared interests. Quality time allows you to experience joy, laughter, and intimacy, reigniting the flame of love and strengthening your bond. 3. Show Gratitude and Appreciation There is nothing more powerful than stepping out of your ego and letting someone else know that you appreciate them, and that what they do matters! Gratitude is a powerful tool in building stronger bridges in your marriage. Expressing appreciation for your spouse and acknowledging their efforts can have a profound impact on your relationship. And maybe you do it periodically. But what if you did it every day from a genuine position of love? Make it a habit to show genuine gratitude for the little things they do, whether it's a thoughtful gesture or simply being there for you. Till the soil in your home by planting appreciation seeds. Remember, a simple "thank you" can go a long way in strengthening the bridge that connects you both. "Marriage is not just about finding the right person, but becoming the right person." ~  Kristianne Wargo Ask yourself this question: Is what I'm seeking in my marriage something that I'm giving to my spouse? Are you being kind and considerate, not just because it's easy, but because you really want to? Are you extending forgiveness first? Look at your reflection. That's a great indication of where your heart is right now. If you find yourself yearning for a better marriage, know that there is always room for growth and improvement. You can bridge the gap and build a stronger bridge, one that will last a lifetime.    "Be present. Be incredible.

But the most important thing is creating heartfelt connections with your child. "However you want to raise your kiddos, your art must connect to their heart!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And that's the art of parenting– the words you say, the actions that reflect your thoughts, the tone of your voice that sets the stage, and the door that's always open. It's essential that we as parents understand and remember that in order for us to have a complete impact, we must forge an unbreakable foundation. So even when they do stray, they still know that you're always for them. Today, my heart breaks for Perry, Iowa, and what the families are facing there. Perry is a smaller town in Iowa, and I'm sure no one thought this could happen in their town. But even as the new year is upon us, old stuff still shows up. And as parents, we have to ready our families within our own four walls and teach them to the best of our abilities. No one ever thinks that something like this will happen. And it's not because we are arrogant or untouchable, we just go about our every day not thinking that way. But if you want to have an impact on your children, you have got to connect to their hearts. It truly is about creating heartfelt connections with your child. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create heartfelt connections! Now, I will say this. There is no blame here in regard to what happened in Perry, Iowa. In fact, we all should be praying for those who have been affected and make changes within our own families to better ourselves. It's not about perfection, but merely doing better with each decision and encounter we have with our children.  As much as we are connected digitally, our hearts are disconnected emotionally. If you want to create heartfelt connections with your children, what does it look like? 1. Engage in Meaningful Conversations Talk to you kiddos!!! Meaningful conversations lay the foundation for building strong connections with your child. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in superficial discussions or simply exchange pleasantries. Hey, how are you? And then you let it go. Do you really know your child? Take the time to engage in deep conversations, which helps to build that trust. Engage your child in open-ended conversations about their day, dreams, fears, or opinions. Encourage them to express themselves freely while actively listening without judgment. As parents, we are so quick to judge. And very rarely do we apologize for mistakes. Show genuine interest in your child, in what they're doing and what they're challenged with. It comes down to paying attention! 2. Share Experiences and Hobbies Get off your digital space, and share experiences with one another. Some of the most profound connections are forged through shared experiences and hobbies. Take the time to explore your child's interests and actively participate in activities they enjoy. Learn something new with them. It's a new year. Take up something like playing a board game, enjoying a hike together, or taking up a new hobby. Shared experiences create lasting memories and strengthen your bond. By engaging in activities your child loves, you demonstrate your support, encouragement, and willingness to be present in their world. Presence matters! Are you giving it to your child? 3. Practice Mindful Presence In our busyness, it's easy to let moments slip away without recognizing their true impact. When you are fully present, you send the message to your child that they matter and that they are a priority. Slow down and savor the simple joys of everyday life, like cooking together, reading a book before bedtime, or even having a family movie night. By being fully present and engaged in these moments, you emotionally connect with your child on a deeper level, reinforcing their sense of love, belonging, and significance. Your child longs to be seen and heard!! Remember, building heartfelt connections with your child requires intentional effort, but the rewards are immeasurable. "Your art must connect to their heart. Create a strong foundation that will last a lifetime." ~ Kristianne Wargo    "Be present. Be incredible.

But the most important thing is creating heartfelt connections with your child. "However you want to raise your kiddos, your art must connect to their heart!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And that's the art of parenting– the words you say, the actions that reflect your thoughts, the tone of your voice that sets the stage, and the door that's always open. It's essential that we as parents understand and remember that in order for us to have a complete impact, we must forge an unbreakable foundation. So even when they do stray, they still know that you're always for them. Today, my heart breaks for Perry, Iowa, and what the families are facing there. Perry is a smaller town in Iowa, and I'm sure no one thought this could happen in their town. But even as the new year is upon us, old stuff still shows up. And as parents, we have to ready our families within our own four walls and teach them to the best of our abilities. No one ever thinks that something like this will happen. And it's not because we are arrogant or untouchable, we just go about our every day not thinking that way. But if you want to have an impact on your children, you have got to connect to their hearts. It truly is about creating heartfelt connections with your child. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create heartfelt connections! Now, I will say this. There is no blame here in regard to what happened in Perry, Iowa. In fact, we all should be praying for those who have been affected and make changes within our own families to better ourselves. It's not about perfection, but merely doing better with each decision and encounter we have with our children.  As much as we are connected digitally, our hearts are disconnected emotionally. If you want to create heartfelt connections with your children, what does it look like? 1. Engage in Meaningful Conversations Talk to you kiddos!!! Meaningful conversations lay the foundation for building strong connections with your child. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in superficial discussions or simply exchange pleasantries. Hey, how are you? And then you let it go. Do you really know your child? Take the time to engage in deep conversations, which helps to build that trust. Engage your child in open-ended conversations about their day, dreams, fears, or opinions. Encourage them to express themselves freely while actively listening without judgment. As parents, we are so quick to judge. And very rarely do we apologize for mistakes. Show genuine interest in your child, in what they're doing and what they're challenged with. It comes down to paying attention! 2. Share Experiences and Hobbies Get off your digital space, and share experiences with one another. Some of the most profound connections are forged through shared experiences and hobbies. Take the time to explore your child's interests and actively participate in activities they enjoy. Learn something new with them. It's a new year. Take up something like playing a board game, enjoying a hike together, or taking up a new hobby. Shared experiences create lasting memories and strengthen your bond. By engaging in activities your child loves, you demonstrate your support, encouragement, and willingness to be present in their world. Presence matters! Are you giving it to your child? 3. Practice Mindful Presence In our busyness, it's easy to let moments slip away without recognizing their true impact. When you are fully present, you send the message to your child that they matter and that they are a priority. Slow down and savor the simple joys of everyday life, like...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1170</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,confessions,dads,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,inspiration,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f6a37ffdef35968bb94ae0aae9ca477d.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3266 Shatter the Roadblocks</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3266-shatter-the-roadblocks--58195325</link><description><![CDATA[Life is a journey filled with twists and turns. At times, the path ahead can feel exhausting, making us doubt our own abilities and passions. It's time to shatter the roadblocks and unlock the untapped potential within. So instead of giving up, you dug a little deeper. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Think about this...What if you tapped into the resilience within you and rediscovered the burning fire that fuels your desires? It's time to shatter the roadblocks and unlock the untapped potential within. When you first embark on a journey, excitement and motivation often lead the way. You eagerly dive into new experiences, fueled by the initial wave of enthusiasm. However, as time goes on, you encounter obstacles that seem insurmountable, sapping you of all your energy and motivation. But let me tell you, it's during these moments of exhaustion that your true strength emerges. The K.I.S.S. ~ Shatter the roadblocks! "Passion is not always a feeling but a commitment to action." ~ Kristianne Wargo Are you ready to take A.I.M.? Action ignites motivation-- and that is the essence of what it takes to push past the roadblocks that hinder your progress. Passion is not about always feeling motivated or inspired; it's about finding the determination within yourself to keep going, even when you don't want to. It's about building that resilience and tapping into your fire space; that's the place where dreams live, and goals are achieved. So, think about what fuels your desires. What are the dreams and goals you deeply cherish? Take a moment to reflect on what drives you, envisioning the outcome and the impact it will have on your life and those around you. Visualization can help reignite a flickering ember and breathe life back into your pursuits. It's crucial to remember that roadblocks are not permanent. They are detours without motion. Meaning, they are temporary obstacles that test our commitment and resolve. "What does this make possible," my friend, Dan Miller, says. Instead of viewing them as setbacks, consider them as opportunities for growth, for expansion. Every roadblock presents a chance to learn, adapt, and become stronger. But it's all in how you choose to respond. In those moments when you find you're just done, "remember that discipline is the bridge between goals and achievements (Jim Rohn)." And when you embrace discipline, you can push through the resistance and stay on track, even when the going gets tough. Discipline is the act of showing up, day after day, regardless of how you feel. It's about putting in the work, even when the passion momentarily fades.  So, embrace the discomfort, dig a little deeper, and confront these roadblocks head-on. As you push through on this adventurous journey of conquering roadblocks and embracing your passion, remember these words: "The person who goes farthest is often the one who is willing to do what others won't (Dale Carnegie)." Uphold your commitment to action for yourself, because therein lies the true power to overcome any obstacle and unlock the extraordinary potential within you.  When you're on this journey of shattering the roadblocks, it's not about feeling like doing it; it's about finding the drive to just do it.

The new year is in full swing, and so are your ideas of getting healthy. So why not start your year off differently? Write your comeback story. Achieving a healthy lifestyle can often feel like an uphill battle, filled with challenges, setbacks, and never-ending cycles of failure. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    When you constantly find yourself hitting a brick wall, it can be disheartening, and then motivation goes out the window. But fear not, because even in the face of adversity, you have the power to turn things around and write your very own comeback story. But this isn't just any story. It's the story where you honor your reflection and give yourself permission to keep going regardless of failure or success. You have a choice in life, and from here on out, you choose life! So it's time to write your comeback story! The K.I.S.S. ~ Write your comeback story! Today, let's explore ways that will help you come back to what truly matters for your health and well-being. Because as you know, according to studies, only about 8% of people successfully achieve their New Year's resolutions. So let's break the stats this year. And in order to do so, you will need to find a sustainable, long-term approach to healthy living rather than relying on short-lived resolutions. There is no one-size fits all. "True success comes to those who persist through failure." ~ Kristianne Wargo Setbacks and failures are not signs of defeat, but rather opportunities for growth. Step 1: Set Clear and Attainable Goals You have got to be specific, yet with flexibility in mind. Take some time to reflect on what truly matters to you when it comes to your health. Is it losing weight, improving fitness levels, or simply feeling more energized? Define your goals in specific and measurable terms. For example, replace "lose weight" with "lose 10 pounds in the next three months." Setting realistic targets will not only increase your chances of success but also provide you with a clear roadmap to navigate your journey. Step 2: Make Small, Sustainable Changes Don't bite off more than you can chew. Now that you have your goals in place, it's time to implement small, sustainable changes in your everyday. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will your healthy lifestyle. Start by making simple adjustments, such as incorporating more fruits and vegetables into your diet, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or setting aside dedicated time for physical activity. These small changes, when practiced consistently, can have a significant impact on your overall well-being. Step 3: Cultivate a Supportive Network In this, don't share with people who will criticize or judge. Instead,  surround yourself with a supportive network so you can achieve long-term success. Share your health goals with family and friends, or even join a community of like-minded individuals if they are going to support you. Having people who believe in you and cheer you on during your journey can provide the motivation and accountability you need to stay on track. Yet consider seeking professional guidance from a nutritionist, personal trainer, coach, or therapist who can offer expert advice tailored to your specific needs. Remember, you don't have to do it alone! Embracing a healthy lifestyle and writing your comeback story is not an overnight process. It's a moment-by-moment, decision-by-decision every day. It requires perseverance, resilience, and a commitment to make sustainable changes. When faced with challenges and setbacks, remind yourself that failure is not the end but a stepping stone to the next best decision. Set clear goals, make small sustainable changes, and surround yourself with a supportive network. With these steps in place, you'll be well on your way to reclaiming your health and creating a lasting change that truly matters. My friend, you get to choose to be six feet under quicker or choose to be a living legacy in six minutes. Start writing your comeback story today!   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's the story where you honor your reflection and give yourself permission to keep going regardless of failure or success. You have a choice in life, and from here on out, you choose life! So it's time to write your comeback story! The K.I.S.S. ~ Write your comeback story! Today, let's explore ways that will help you come back to what truly matters for your health and well-being. Because as you know, according to studies, only about 8% of people successfully achieve their New Year's resolutions. So let's break the stats this year. And in order to do so, you will need to find a sustainable, long-term approach to healthy living rather than relying on short-lived resolutions. There is no one-size fits all. "True success comes to those who persist through failure." ~ Kristianne Wargo Setbacks and failures are not signs of defeat, but rather opportunities for growth. Step 1: Set Clear and Attainable Goals You have got to be specific, yet with flexibility in mind. Take some time to reflect on what truly matters to you when it comes to your health. Is it losing weight, improving fitness levels, or simply feeling more energized? Define your goals in specific and measurable terms. For example, replace "lose weight" with "lose 10 pounds in the next three months." Setting realistic targets will not only increase your chances of success but also provide you with a clear roadmap to navigate your journey. Step 2: Make Small, Sustainable Changes Don't bite off more than you can chew. Now that you have your goals in place, it's time to implement small, sustainable changes in your everyday. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will your healthy lifestyle. Start by making simple adjustments, such as incorporating more fruits and vegetables into your diet, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or setting aside dedicated time for physical activity. These small changes, when practiced consistently, can have a significant impact on your overall well-being. Step 3: Cultivate a Supportive Network In this, don't share with people who will criticize or judge. Instead,  surround yourself with a supportive network so you can achieve long-term success. Share your health goals with family and friends, or even join a community of like-minded individuals if they are going to support you. Having people who believe in you and cheer you on during your journey can provide the motivation and accountability you need to stay on track. Yet consider seeking professional guidance from a nutritionist, personal trainer, coach, or therapist who can offer expert advice tailored to your specific needs. Remember, you don't have to do it alone! Embracing a healthy lifestyle and writing your comeback story is not an overnight process. It's a moment-by-moment, decision-by-decision every day. It requires perseverance, resilience, and a commitment to make sustainable changes. When faced with challenges and setbacks, remind yourself that failure is not the end but a stepping stone to the next best decision. Set clear goals, make small sustainable changes, and surround...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1047</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,fitness,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,health,joy,leadership,lifestyle,mindset,moms,nutrition,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/85e130cd02cda5365b58b4c23fc71ad3.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3264 Become the Architect of Your EveryDay</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3264-become-the-architect-of-your-everyday--58169569</link><description><![CDATA[Achieving anything worthwhile takes dedication and perseverance.

Sitting back and waiting for something to just happen will be the one thing that will hold you back. Choose your direction and create your now. Now I can already hear the pushback that you should not make something happen; you need to wait on the Lord.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Dreams and goals take initiative. Waiting does not mean not taking action. You still have to take A.I.M. one step at a time. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Think about this. If you are sitting at a stoplight, it doesn't matter what color the light turns. If you don't have gas in the car or it charged up, you can't go forward. If your brakes are loose, you will have problems stopping and yielding. If your oil is depleted, your engine will not run smoothly, eventually giving out, and then you won't be able to go where you were headed. Oh - and if your speedometer isn't working, you won't see any lights, except the flashing blue ones behind you because your speed is too fast or too slow. Make the decision to start taking action today and create your now! The K.I.S.S. ~ Create Your Now! So think about your goals and dreams. What are they? I know you've been thinking about them recently, some for weeks, others for decades.  But if you don't name them, what are they to you? A few words strung together to sound good if someone asked you. Something that keeps you thinking a little longer on what you should be when you grow up. One of my good friends and mentor, Dan Miller, says, “Have you ever noticed that even if God allows you to have a dream, you’re expected to work to make it happen?” Dreams are thoughts put together with little words that resemble your heart (Passion). Goals are stepping stones to getting there (Purpose). Actions connect the dreams and goals to create your now (Presence). Here are three specific things you can do: 1. Elevate Your Clarity: You get to define your dreams and your goals. Define the direction you want your life to take by knowing your dreams and setting clear, specific goals. Break them down into smaller milestones so that they are more achievable. For example, if your goal is to start a business, set smaller goals such as creating a business plan, registering your business, and securing your first client. 2. Build Consistent Action: Consistency is the key so long as it incorporates taking A.I.M.; action ignites motivation. If you choose to sit on your butt all the time, that's not action. So take a small step each day toward your goals. If you want to write a book, commit to writing a certain number of words or pages every day. If you want to get fit, establish a routine and stick to it. Consistency builds momentum and brings you closer to your dreams.  3. Embrace the Possibilities, Seen or Unseen: You are going to have opportunities that set you apart or drown you in the mission. You get to choose how you respond. As Dan Miller says, "What does this make possible?" Adopt that growth mindset and believe in your ability to learn and improve. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth, and don't let setbacks discourage you. See failures as learning experiences and adjust your approach accordingly. Allowing yourself to see possibilities and not roadblocks, not only will open your mind, but it will open your heart.  Remember, you have the power to Create Your Now. Take charge of your life, set clear goals, take consistent action, and embrace what is seen and unseen. And then watch as you transform every moment and every day into something extraordinary as you create your now.  From my family to yours, may you have a blessed New Year filled with an abundance of joy, hope, forgiveness, and love.

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." ~ Isaiah 43:18-19 With the anticipation of the new year, there is nothing greater than letting go of the past and embracing the possibilities that lie ahead. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The prophet Isaiah penned these words during a tumultuous period in Israel's history. The people were in exile in Babylon, longing for deliverance and restoration. Isaiah brought messages of hope amidst despair, assuring the Israelites of God's faithfulness and promising a new beginning. His words transcended their circumstances, offering a glimmer of hope for a future filled with divine intervention. As you approach the end of the year, it's a natural time for reflection. You look back at the challenges faced, the triumphs celebrated, and the lessons learned. However, dwelling on the past can hinder your ability to move forward. Isaiah invites us to release the burdens of yesterday, to forget what is behind us, and to fix our gaze on what lies ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ Now it springs up! The words "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past" serve as a gentle reminder that dwelling on the past robs us of the opportunities to experience the beauty of the present and the promise of a future brimming with divine favor. It's a call to let go of regrets, disappointments, and missed opportunities, trusting that God is stirring up something new within us - in hearts that are open to His leading. The verse continues, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" These words inspire us to tune in to the signs of growth and renewal that surround us. Just as spring bursts forth with new life and vibrant colors, God is constantly at work, stirring up new beginnings and possibilities in our lives. "As you enter a new year, be intentional in shedding the weight of the past and embracing the gift of the present. The journey may be uncertain, but if you fix your gaze on God's faithfulness, you'll discover a path filled with purpose and hope." ~ Kristianne Wargo As the year comes to a close and a new year begins, consider this a sacred time to reevaluate your priorities, set meaningful intentions, and open your heart to the divine possibilities of the year ahead. It is an opportunity to surrender your plans to God's perfect timing and trust that He is orchestrating a new symphony in your life, one filled with boundless blessings and remarkable growth. You have to be looking for those God winks in your every day. As we bid farewell to the old and eagerly greet the new, let us internalize the wisdom of Isaiah 43:18-19. May we have the courage to release the weight of the past, embrace the possibilities that lie ahead, and trust in God who holds the power to bring forth new beginnings. Remember, "Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?"   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." ~ Isaiah 43:18-19 With the anticipation of the new year, there is nothing greater than letting go of the past and embracing the possibilities that lie ahead.

The people were in exile in Babylon, longing for deliverance and restoration. Isaiah brought messages of hope amidst despair, assuring the Israelites of God's faithfulness and promising a new beginning. His words transcended their circumstances, offering a glimmer of hope for a future filled with divine intervention. As you approach the end of the year, it's a natural time for reflection. You look back at the challenges faced, the triumphs celebrated, and the lessons learned. However, dwelling on the past can hinder your ability to move forward. Isaiah invites us to release the burdens of yesterday, to forget what is behind us, and to fix our gaze on what lies ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ Now it springs up! The words "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past" serve as a gentle reminder that dwelling on the past robs us of the opportunities to experience the beauty of the present and the promise of a future brimming with divine favor. It's a call to let go of regrets, disappointments, and missed opportunities, trusting that God is stirring up something new within us - in hearts that are open to His leading. The verse continues, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" These words inspire us to tune in to the signs of growth and renewal that surround us. Just as spring bursts forth with new life and vibrant colors, God is constantly at work, stirring up new beginnings and possibilities in our lives.

For others, it's a new beginning. Don't let the 'ball drop' kiss be your last one. Because, in the end, what really matters? It's that time of the year when we eagerly bid farewell to the old and embrace the promise of a brand-new beginning. As a married couple, the start of the new year is a perfect opportunity to rekindle the flame and deepen the bond that brought you together.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

What if your marriage could be ten percent better than what it is today? Would you do what it takes to get there? Now be honest! I have a good friend, mentor, and coach who I admire deeply. He has traveled many paths, but all led him to what really matters; an understanding heart. You see, my good friend, entrepreneur Dad, mentor, and coach signed off yesterday for the final episode of his podcast (958); 48 Days to the Work You Love. <a href="https://www.48days.com/dan-miller-legacy/?fbclid=IwAR2wb18zFB3zQsVS2TAzUu5J5r0rdS_5HnN5U_mvRbz6ag8O7ILHNqzUlX0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.48days.com/dan-miller-legacy/</a> I won't go into details, but he is battling stage four cancer, yet he still stands and asks, "What does this make possible?" Now he would be the first to tell you that behind any strong man is a stronger woman. And that is his wife, Joanne. Their marriage has not been an easy one, as with all marriages. They had their own struggles with finances, raising kids, life transitions, and loving each other deeper than the arguments before. As you can imagine, the 'ball drop' kiss this year will carry a different meaning, or will it? Because, in the end, what really matters? The K.I.S.S. ~ In the end, what really matters? This is a poem written by Joanne Miller. May it touch your heart so your love this year can grow deeper and wider. In the End... by Joanne F. Miller (December 22, 2023) All the petty arguments,<br /> The efforts to prove a point, <br /> The angry words and the pouting,<br /> Count for little in the end. All the struggles endured,<br /> The pain, the hurt,<br /> The need to be right,<br /> Count for little in the end. All the selfish acts,<br /> The self-centered desires,<br /> The heated debates,<br /> Count for little in the end. All the political strife,<br /> The divisive beliefs,<br /> The outbursts and decrees,<br /> Count for little in the end. In the end,<br /> What counts forever,<br /> Is the need to be loved,<br /> Cherished, appreciated,<br /> Respected. In the end,<br /> What counts forever,<br /> Is the legacy you leave,<br /> The footprints you make, <br /> That change the world,<br /> One little bit better<br /> Since your birth. In the end, what really matters? Are you one who is going to keep score this new year and make sure to twist the hurtful words a little more? Are you one who is going to whine when you don't get your own way and throw an adult temper tantrum? Are you one who is going to sway back and forth as to whether you want to really be married, leaving the heart open for a greater catastrophe? Are you one who is going to gripe all the time when stuff is left unfinished or undone? In the end, what really matters? That's the question I want you to think about for your marriage this New Year. That's the question I want you to ask over and over again when you feel short-changed or left out. That's the question I want you to ask when you feel down and out, and won't give any more of yourself. In the end, what really matters? For Dan and Joanne, it's the simple moments of life. <ul> <li>Looking deep into each other's eyes after a discrepancy. </li> <li>Holding each other's hands as if it was for the first time. </li> <li>Lingering a little longer in a deep hug, never wanting to let go.</li> <li>Knowing each other's hearts better than they know their own.</li> <li>Loving each other better with each new sunrise.</li> <li>Forgiving quicker than keeping a score of one's wrongs.</li> <li>Serving well with a heart to give more.</li> </ul> In the end, what really matters? As the ball drops in a few hours, make note of where you are and where you are going as a couple. May the 'ball drop' kiss be the beginning of a love like Dan and Joanne. Because, in the end, it's what really matters.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How can parents serve their child well in the new year? As we step into a brand-new year, I don't know about you, but I think about how I can best support and guide my children. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes, I have quick A-HA moments. And other times, I'm flabbergasted.  There is no way I know what to do in this season that my child is in. But regardless of what season you're in with your child, you can support your child well. And it starts with the heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Start with the heart! Here are three valuable ways to make a positive impact. 1. Cultivate Open Communication In today's fast-paced world, where distractions are aplenty, it is vital for parents to create a nurturing environment where their child feels comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings. Regularly engaging in meaningful conversations helps parents to better understand their child's hopes, dreams, fears, and challenges. Open communication fosters trust and strengthens the parent-child bond, which is crucial during both good times and rough patches. "Embracing a new year means embracing new opportunities for growth and connection. As a parent, I encourage you to prioritize open communication with your child. Listen with empathy, validate their feelings, and create space for them to express themselves. This sets a strong foundation for their emotional, intellectual, and personal well-being." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Attainable Goals Goal-setting is an empowering practice that can guide children toward success and personal fulfillment. Parents can help their child identify realistic goals that nurture their passions and align with their abilities. Whether it's academic achievements, extracurricular pursuits, or personal milestones, encouraging children to set goals teaches them the value of perseverance, resilience, and self-motivation. "Through my own experience as a parent, I've witnessed the transformative power of goal-setting. Encourage your child to dream big but also guide them in breaking down their goals into manageable steps. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! This helps them build confidence, resilience, and a sense of purpose as they work towards achieving their dreams." - Kristianne Wargo 3. Encourage The "Whole" Approach (Well-rounded Development) While academic success is often placed at the forefront, it's crucial for parents to recognize the importance of holistic development. Encouraging children to explore diverse interests and hobbies helps them discover their talents, passions, and potential. Exposure to various activities nurtures their creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. By supporting their child's exploration, parents lay the foundation for well-rounded development. "As parents, it is our role to provide opportunities for our children to discover and explore their unique talents and passions. By encouraging their interests, we help them develop self-confidence, resilience, and the courage to pursue their dreams. Let's provide them with a safe space to engage in various activities that foster intellectual, physical, and emotional growth." - Kristianne Wargo Parenting in the new year is an opportunity for growth, connection, and empowerment. By embracing open communication, guiding goal-setting, and encouraging the "whole" approach, parents can truly serve their children's best interests. As we embark on this new chapter, let us prioritize our children's holistic growth, helping them become confident, purposeful individuals, ready to tackle any challenges that may come their way. Just because the ball drops, doesn't mean we drop the ball as parents. Support your child well this new year! Stretch yourself as a parent and be your child's biggest ambassador.   "Be present.

How can parents serve their child well in the new year? As we step into a brand-new year, I don't know about you, but I think about how I can best support and guide my children. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes, I have quick A-HA moments. And other times, I'm flabbergasted.  There is no way I know what to do in this season that my child is in. But regardless of what season you're in with your child, you can support your child well. And it starts with the heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Start with the heart! Here are three valuable ways to make a positive impact. 1. Cultivate Open Communication In today's fast-paced world, where distractions are aplenty, it is vital for parents to create a nurturing environment where their child feels comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings. Regularly engaging in meaningful conversations helps parents to better understand their child's hopes, dreams, fears, and challenges. Open communication fosters trust and strengthens the parent-child bond, which is crucial during both good times and rough patches. "Embracing a new year means embracing new opportunities for growth and connection. As a parent, I encourage you to prioritize open communication with your child. Listen with empathy, validate their feelings, and create space for them to express themselves. This sets a strong foundation for their emotional, intellectual, and personal well-being." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Attainable Goals Goal-setting is an empowering practice that can guide children toward success and personal fulfillment. Parents can help their child identify realistic goals that nurture their passions and align with their abilities. Whether it's academic achievements, extracurricular pursuits, or personal milestones, encouraging children to set goals teaches them the value of perseverance, resilience, and self-motivation. "Through my own experience as a parent, I've witnessed the transformative power of goal-setting. Encourage your child to dream big but also guide them in breaking down their goals into manageable steps. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! This helps them build confidence, resilience, and a sense of purpose as they work towards achieving their dreams." - Kristianne Wargo 3. Encourage The "Whole" Approach (Well-rounded Development) While academic success is often placed at the forefront, it's crucial for parents to recognize the importance of holistic development. Encouraging children to explore diverse interests and hobbies helps them discover their talents, passions, and potential. Exposure to various activities nurtures their creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. By supporting their child's exploration, parents lay the foundation for well-rounded development. "As parents, it is our role to provide opportunities for our children to discover and explore their unique talents and passions. By encouraging their interests, we help them develop self-confidence, resilience, and the courage to pursue their dreams. Let's provide them with a safe space to engage in various activities that foster intellectual, physical, and emotional growth." - Kristianne Wargo Parenting in the new year is an opportunity for growth, connection, and empowerment. By embracing open communication, guiding goal-setting, and encouraging the "whole" approach, parents can truly serve their children's best interests. As we embark on this new chapter, let us prioritize our children's holistic growth, helping them become confident, purposeful individuals, ready to tackle any challenges that may...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>925</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,dads,family,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,inspiration,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/17e03c9295a65bb93a79fca3a1046e28.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3259 Accept the Grind</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3259-accept-the-grind--58136563</link><description><![CDATA[As we enter a new year, it's easy to get caught up in the excitement of fresh starts, like resolutions, creating vision boards, and dreaming big. And while these practices can be valuable, it's equally important to accept the grind. By doing so, even though you don't want to admit it, you ground yourself in reality and recognize that the grind is an essential part of the journey. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In today's fast-paced society, we are constantly bombarded with messages that inspire us to go after our dreams, achieve greatness, and strive for success. It sounds wonderful, even too perfect! While these messages are undoubtedly motivating, they often overlook an important aspect of the journey: the grind. The grind, as many of us have come to know, is the day-to-day hustle, the hard work, the long hours, and the persistence required to achieve our goals. It is the unglamorous, often overlooked part of the equation. But sometimes, acceptance of the grind is the key to achieving true success. "Sometimes, the true heroism lies in the ability to connect the heart as you accept the grind and the challenges that come your way, and use them as stepping stones toward your goals." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Accept the grind! This brings to light the notion that without the grind, our dreams are merely fantasies. The reality is that success is not handed to us on a silver platter; it is earned through hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Accepting the grind means acknowledging that not every day will be filled with inspiration and motivation. There will be days when we feel tired, unmotivated, and even discouraged. But it is during these moments that we must push through, knowing that progress is often made in the face of adversity. One of the keys to accepting the grind is finding joy in the process. When we focus solely on the end goal, we risk becoming consumed by the idea of success, rather than enjoying the journey itself. By finding joy in the small victories, celebrating milestones along the way, and appreciating the lessons learned, you can embrace the grind and make it an integral part of your success story. Moreover, accepting the grind requires a shift in perspective. Instead of viewing it as a burden or a necessary evil, we can choose to see it as an opportunity for growth and self-improvement. The grind teaches you discipline, resilience, and the ability to adapt to challenges – qualities that are invaluable in any pursuit. As we embark on a new year, let us remember that achieving our goals is not solely about lofty dreams and grandiose plans. It is about accepting the grind – the ups and downs, the victories and setbacks – and using them as stepping stones towards our desired destination in the long journey called life. So, accept the grind, for it is in the daily hustle that authentic living from the heart is born.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Get ready to embark on a healthy journey as you let go of the old and ring in the new. And in order to wholeheartedly embrace this new beginning, it is crucial to let go of old habits and embrace what's possible. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Now, you can choose to remain where you are and be miserable in another month, two, or three. Or you can take on an extreme approach and really seek to understand where you are and look for ways to get you where you really want to be. It's going to be a hard journey. It's not going to be easy. But it will be more than worth it one month from now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Let go of the old and ring in the new! Here are three actionable steps to help you on your path to healthy living: 1. Reflect and Release Begin by taking a momentary pause to reflect on the past year. Acknowledge what didn't work and be ready to release any feelings of guilt or self-judgment associated with it. Remember, change is a process, and starting fresh means leaving behind what no longer serves you. Embrace the power of forgiveness and free yourself from the weight of previous setbacks. "Letting go of what didn't work is the gateway to embracing what might work." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Set Realistic Goals Setting achievable goals is pivotal when it comes to initiating a healthy living journey. Break down your ultimate vision into smaller, concrete objectives that can be accomplished step by step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Whether it's incorporating physical activity into your daily routine, eating more nourishing whole foods, or practicing mindfulness, it's crucial to create goals that are challenging yet attainable. By setting realistic goals, you increase your chances of success while maintaining a positive mindset. 3. Seek Relief with Support and Accountability There is no reason to feel like you have to carry this burden of change by yourself. Achieving a healthier lifestyle becomes considerably easier when you have a strong support system in place. And that brings relief. So surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share similar aspirations. Join fitness classes, online communities, or social media groups that provide encouragement, motivation, and a sense of camaraderie. Additionally, find an accountability partner who will hold you responsible for your actions and ensure you stay on track. Sharing your journey with others not only enhances your chances of success but also brings an extra touch of inspiration and support. Remember, embracing healthy living requires a willingness to leave behind old habits and embrace new, potentially life-changing choices. As the New Year dawns, commit to letting go of what didn't work, and create a mindset conducive to personal growth and well-being. The journey toward a healthier you begins with the power of letting go—get ready to embrace what might work. "Letting go and learning from the past is just as important as being present today for what's to come tomorrow." - Kristianne Wargo You can kickstart your transformation and make sustainable progress towards healthy living. And it starts today! Don't wait for the ball to drop. Embrace the fresh start today and embark on a fulfilling journey towards a healthy living life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Whether it's incorporating physical activity into your daily routine, eating more nourishing whole foods, or practicing mindfulness, it's crucial to create goals that are challenging yet attainable. By setting realistic goals, you increase your chances of success while maintaining a positive mindset. 3. Seek Relief with Support and Accountability There is no reason to feel like you have to carry this burden of change by yourself. Achieving a healthier lifestyle becomes considerably easier when you have a strong support system in place. And that brings relief. So surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share similar aspirations. Join fitness classes, online communities, or social media groups that provide encouragement, motivation, and a sense of camaraderie. Additionally, find an accountability partner who will hold you responsible for your actions and ensure you stay on track. Sharing your journey with others not only enhances your chances of success but also brings an extra touch of inspiration and support. Remember, embracing healthy living requires a willingness to leave behind old habits and embrace new, potentially life-changing choices. As the New Year dawns, commit to letting go of what didn't work, and create a mindset conducive to personal growth and well-being. The journey toward a healthier you begins with the power of letting go—get ready to embrace what might work. "Letting go and learning from the past is just as important as being present today for what's to come tomorrow." - Kristianne Wargo You can kickstart your transformation and make sustainable progress towards healthy living. And it starts today! Don't wait for the ball to drop. Embrace the fresh start today and embark on a fulfilling journey towards a healthy living life.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But what if we reframed our perspective? Instead of letting the end of Christmas dampen your spirit, let it serve as a reminder to see the possibilities and ignite your heart within. When we dim our light, we risk losing sight of our dreams and aspirations. You might find yourself stuck in the same place, a year older but not necessarily wiser. The magic of Christmas offers you an opportunity to reflect on where you stand in your life and make a pact with yourself to take the necessary steps toward your goals. Embarking on this journey will undoubtedly have its challenges, but the rewards will be worth the excursion.

However, it is essential to set your heart on what truly matters and keep your focus on the path ahead, always shining merry and bright.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Merry and bright! Remember, the journey toward your dreams will not always be easy, but it is in embracing the spirit of Christmas that you can find the strength to persevere. The warmth and love you experience during the holiday season can serve as a guiding light throughout the year. Let that light be a beacon, reminding you of the joy, kindness, and generosity you should share with others. "Don't let the end of Christmas dull your light. Keep shining, keep dreaming, and keep making a difference. Your journey may twist and turn, but by staying merry and bright, you'll always find your way through the darkness and into the light." ~ Kristianne Wargo This year, make a conscious effort to carry the spirit of Christmas with you, not just during the holiday season but in every step you take. You have the power to make a positive impact, to bring joy and brightness to the lives of others. So, let the lights stay on, and shine your light, merry and bright.   "Be present. Be incredible.

She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests." 15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about." 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. Where does Christmas find you? Are you connected to the real reason for the season? Or are you one who is hiding for a variety of reasons? Maybe you are feeling alone and stressed beyond your capacity. Maybe you are drowning in debt and just trying to stay afloat. <br /> Maybe you are suffering from a debilitating illness that is zapping your energy.<br /> Maybe you are wrestling with the new year and what comes next.<br /> Maybe you are fighting an endless battle where there are no words.<br /> Maybe you are married, but you aren't sure how strong your marriage is.<br /> Maybe you are dealing with a child that's complicated your life in more ways than one.<br /> Maybe you don't like who you see in the mirror, so you don't look. Mary and Joseph struggled on the night of Jesus' birth. There was no room for Him in the inn. So they went to find shelter in a lowly stable.  And the King of Kings was born. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. ~ Isaiah 9:6 Are making space for God in your life, and not just for the season, but for your life? Most of us like to hide and think we've got it all under control. But occupying your days or being preoccupied with the busyness this world brings only leaves you searching for more. The emptiness that you feel cannot be filled with all the things of this world. Only God can fill the gap in your heart. Yet, you have to be willing to take down the "no vacancy" sign. You have to open yourself up for His expertise, His unconditional love, His grace, and the hope He brings to you. No matter how full you fill your life with stuff, accolades, achievements, trophies, or #1 whatever, your heart will never be whole.  You see, the heart of Christmas is found within you. You carry the heart of Christmas. But if you drown yourself in all the worry, stress, busyness, chaos, and challenges the world offers, you are going to live a life of hopelessness. You are going to be striving instead of thriving. You will be constantly searching for the light in the darkness. However, the only light that will give you the hope your heart is looking for comes from Jesus Christ. The K.I.S.S. ~ The heart of Christmas! In the hustle and bustle of the world's delight, Amidst the flurry of snowflakes, pure and white, There lies a story, ancient and true, A tale of love, unfolding anew.   The heart of Christmas, a wondrous place, A tender moment, wrapped in grace, It whispers softly, to young and old, A timeless tale, profoundly told.   In a stable's warmth, on the bed of hay, A baby cried on that holy day, Born in humility, a humble birth, The Savior of the world, heaven's greatest worth.   No grandeur or pomp adorned that place, Yet hope and faith exuded from grace, The manger witnessed a miracle rare, A beacon of love, beyond compare.   No ornaments of gold, no lavish attire, But Shepherds gathered, their hearts on fire, Guided by angels, their voices sing, Proclaiming joy, the arrival of the King.   No room in the inn, the sign was clear, But in humble surroundings, hope drew near, For the heart of Christmas knows no bounds, In a stable's embrace, light abounds.   It's in every act of selfless giving, In every prayer and every forgiving, The heart of Christmas touches every soul, Filling emptiness, making brokenness whole.   So let us gather, as community, With hearts united in joyful harmony, Embrace the spirit, oh, feel it ignite, The heart of Christmas, shining bright.   In laughter and love, in warmth and cheer, Let kindness flow through the atmosphere, For Christmas is more than presents and treats, It's the love we share, that never depletes.   May the heart of Christmas heal and bless, May it bring solace, and gently caress, The weary hearts, the burdened souls, With hope, with peace, the world consoles.   As we gather 'round, with loved ones near, Let us hold the essence of Christmas dear, For within our hearts, the light does shine, Brightening the world, for all of time.   The heart of Christmas, an eternal flame, A miracle that speaks every name, In every joy, in every tear, May the heart of Christmas draw us near.   My friend, let this be the beginning of finding the space in your heart to hear what God wants for you. Your gift this season is wrapped with grace and adorned with unconditional love. Today, you get to feel the light in the darkness of your heart. You get to take part in what God desires within you. Healing, freedom, forgiveness, gratitude, love, hope, and grace.  This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24)   "Be present. Be incredible.

Christmas Eve– a time of reflection and renewal. As the chilly December wind embraces us and the days grow shorter, our hearts stir with a special anticipation. Christmas Eve, the evening before the birth of Jesus Christ, is undoubtedly one of the most magical and cherished nights of the year for Christians around the world. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It is a time when we come together to celebrate the joy, miracles, and unconditional love that is embodied in the birth of our Savior. May this time be filled with hope, that which Jesus Christ brought to each of us. Delving into the Biblical references, we encounter a wealth of verses that guide us in understanding the significance of Christmas Eve and its preparation for the arrival of Jesus. Let's explore these verses as we delve into the beauty and meaning of this sacred occasion. The K.I.S.S. ~ A time of reflection and renewal! 1. Reflection and Anticipation: On this night, as we reflect upon the blessings bestowed upon us throughout the year, it is fitting to ponder the words found in Luke 2:10-12: "But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.'" Indeed, the birth of Jesus fills our hearts with immeasurable joy and hope. As we prepare to honor His arrival, we feel a sense of anticipation, akin to that of the shepherds and the wise men who journeyed to the humble manger. 2. The Gift of Love and Salvation: Christmas Eve reminds us of the profound love God has for humanity. John 3:16 encapsulates this sentiment perfectly: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." In this season of giving, let us not forget that the ultimate gift we receive is the promise of salvation through Jesus Christ. It is a time to reflect on the significance of His birth and the eternal impact it has had on our lives. 3. Preparation and Surrender: Just as Mary and Joseph prepared for the birth of Jesus, we, too, must embrace the spirit of preparation. Matthew 1:23 reminds us of the faith and surrender required during this time: "The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel (which means 'God with us')." During this season, as we decorate our homes, bake festive treats, and exchange gifts, let us also prepare our hearts to welcome Jesus with sincere devotion. "Christmas Eve holds a sacred space in our hearts, reminding us to slow down, reflect, and open our hearts to God's unconditional love. It is a moment to hold dear, as we prepare to celebrate the miracle of Jesus' birth." ~ Kristianne Wargo Christmas Eve is an extraordinary time of the year, filled with profound joy and an overwhelming sense of love. As we gather with loved ones and adorn our homes with sparkling lights, let us take a moment to remember the true reason for this season – the birth of Jesus Christ. May we reflect, prepare, and surrender to the immense love and grace that emanates from this blessed night. Let us celebrate Christmas Eve with reverence and an open heart, for it is through the birth of Jesus that we find hope, redemption, and eternal life. As you prepare your heart, may God meet you right where you are, and may you experience the wonder and peace that surpasses all understanding. Merry Christmas!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Christmas Eve– a time of reflection and renewal. As the chilly December wind embraces us and the days grow shorter, our hearts stir with a special anticipation. Christmas Eve, the evening before the birth of Jesus Christ, is undoubtedly one of the most magical and cherished nights of the year for Christians around the world.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It is a time when we come together to celebrate the joy, miracles, and unconditional love that is embodied in the birth of our Savior. May this time be filled with hope, that which Jesus Christ brought to each of us. Delving into the Biblical references, we encounter a wealth of verses that guide us in understanding the significance of Christmas Eve and its preparation for the arrival of Jesus. Let's explore these verses as we delve into the beauty and meaning of this sacred occasion. The K.I.S.S. ~ A time of reflection and renewal! 1.

But fear not, dear kindred spirits, lost in the fray, For hope still remains, and love finds its own way.   Amidst the chaos, let intention spring forth, A choice to rekindle what once held such worth.

For tomorrow's hope lies in today's devotion, And love, once renewed, will transcend any notion.   Choose to live boldly, in love's vibrant embrace, And prepare your heart for what's yet to take place. In each passing day, let affection resound, A refrain of love's melody, forever unbound.   May this poem serve as a gentle reminder, my dear, That love's flame can burn bright, dispelling all fear.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds, Dreaming of wonders that danced in their heads. With love in their hearts and joy in their eyes, Parents sought ways to make Christmas arise. They gathered 'round the fire, flickering so bright, To plan a special day, filled with pure delight. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

With laughter and giggles, they sculpted each face, Creating a family masterpiece with grace.   Next came the baking, the sweet scent in the air, Making cookies and treats for all to share. Little hands mixing dough, flouring their noses, Creating deliciousness, as the kitchen door closes.   A horse-drawn sleigh ride, through a winter wonderland, With jingling of bells, they glided hand in hand. The children's faces glowing, cheeks turning pink, In this picturesque scene, they found joy in a blink.   Together they decorated the grand Christmas tree, Stringing lights and ornaments, so beautifully. Each bauble held a story, memories from the past, A tree bursting with love, a symbol that'll last. The K.I.S.S. ~ Twas the night before Christmas! A family movie night, cuddled up real close, Watching classics and new tales to engross. The children's laughter echoed, filling the room, Creating treasured moments that never will gloom.   And as the night grew late, they read stories of old, Of Santa and his reindeer, brave and bold. Imagination soared, minds drifted away, To dream of magical sleighs pulled by reindeer astray.   Finally, by the hearth, stockings were laid, With hopes and wishes, ready to be displayed. The children's eyes twinkled, seeing Christmas unfold, In their hearts, the memories worth much more than gold.   The magic of Christmas, oh so divine, Is not just in toys or gifts on a line. It's found in love, togetherness so bright, And joyful festivities all through the night.   With cherished moments, memories shall sow, Like seeds in a garden, they'll forever grow. To celebrate Christmas, let the spirit be shown, For these memories cherished, forever known.   "Be present. Be incredible.

With laughter and giggles, they sculpted each face, Creating a family masterpiece with grace.   Next came the baking, the sweet scent in the air, Making cookies and treats for all to share. Little hands mixing dough, flouring their noses, Creating deliciousness, as the kitchen door closes.   A horse-drawn sleigh ride, through a winter wonderland, With jingling of bells, they glided hand in hand. The children's faces glowing, cheeks turning pink, In this picturesque scene, they found joy in a blink.   Together they decorated the grand Christmas tree, Stringing lights and ornaments, so beautifully. Each bauble held a story, memories from the past, A tree bursting with love, a symbol that'll last. The K.I.S.S. ~ Twas the night before Christmas! A family movie night, cuddled up real close, Watching classics and new tales to engross. The children's laughter echoed, filling the room, Creating treasured moments that never will gloom.   And as the night grew late, they read stories of old, Of Santa and his reindeer, brave and bold. Imagination soared, minds drifted away, To dream of magical sleighs pulled by reindeer astray.   Finally, by the hearth, stockings were laid, With hopes and wishes, ready to be displayed. The children's eyes twinkled, seeing Christmas unfold, In their hearts, the memories worth much more than gold.   The magic of Christmas, oh so divine, Is not just in toys or gifts on a line. It's found in love, togetherness so bright, And joyful festivities all through the night.   With cherished moments, memories shall sow, Like seeds in a garden, they'll forever grow. To celebrate Christmas, let the spirit be shown, For these memories cherished, forever known.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As the anticipation of Christmas fills the air, you first must embrace the journey of preparation. Our hearts long for the joyous celebration and time spent together with loved ones. We may find ourselves caught up in the material aspects, distracted by the hustle and bustle, and merely going through the motions. However, truly pause and reflect on the true essence of this beautiful season. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Just as a painter prepares their canvas before creating a masterpiece or a chef gathers the ingredients before cooking a delicious meal, we too must invest time and effort into preparing our hearts, homes, and minds for this joyful celebration. The Bible reminds us of the importance of preparation throughout its verses. In Proverbs 16:1, it states, "The preparations of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord." This highlights the significance of cultivating a heart filled with gratitude, love, and kindness as we enter into the Christmas season. By intentionally preparing our hearts, we open ourselves up to receiving the true blessings that Christmas brings. And as you know, preparation extends beyond just the heart; it also encompasses our physical surroundings. When we adorn our homes with twinkling lights, wreaths, and ornaments, we create an atmosphere that reminds us of the miracle of Christ's birth. Our homes become a sanctuary, welcoming family and friends to gather and rejoice in the season of joy, love, and hope. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the journey of preparation! However, in our eagerness for the celebration to begin, let us not forget the beautiful journey of preparation itself. Embrace those moments spent carefully selecting gifts for loved ones, for it is a gesture of love and thoughtfulness. Savor the time spent wrapping each gift, as it allows us to reflect on the special connection we share with those we cherish. Appreciate every minute spent planning and preparing meals, as it signifies the bond of family and the joy of breaking bread together. As you navigate the busyness of the season, it is crucial to pace yourself and find moments of rest. Remember, this season is not solely about fulfilling obligations or appeasing expectations. It is a time to nourish our souls and cultivate gratitude for the blessings bestowed upon us. "In the stillness of preparation, we find the magic of celebration." ~ Kristianne Wargo Preparation reminds us of the transformative power that comes from taking a breath, centering ourselves, and immersing in the process of preparation. It is within these quiet moments that we truly discover the magic and wonder of Christmas. So, if you find yourself weary from the preparations, I encourage you to hold onto the belief that each step taken is bringing you closer to experiencing the joy and warmth that Christmas brings. Embrace the process, for it is a gift in itself. With the eagerness to embark on the Christmas celebration is understandable, let us not rush past the invaluable journey of preparation. Find solace in the quiet moments, seek inspiration from what the Bible reminds us for the reason of the season, and embrace the gifts of love, gratitude, and joy that come from intentional preparation. May this season be a reminder of the blessings bestowed upon you and your family, and may the spirit of Christmas fill your heart with everlasting peace and joy!   "Be present. Be incredible.

A time of celebration that requires a joyful balance.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    So, what does it mean to celebrate without overdoing it, especially when it comes to our eating habits? It means approaching the holiday table with intentionality and reserve, and allowing yourself to indulge mindfully. It's about finding joy in the experience of eating, while also respecting your body and the long-term health goals you have in mind. Celebrate responsibly! The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate responsibly! Rather than simply depriving yourself of all the festive treats, you can adopt a few strategies to help you celebrate responsibly during the holiday season. 1. Firstly, it’s important to prioritize nourishing foods. Make sure your plate is filled with a variety of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. By focusing on these nutrient-dense options, you provide your body with the necessary fuel it needs to thrive. But that doesn't mean you need to restrict yourself from enjoying those seasonal specialties. Allow yourself small portions of your favorite indulgences – savoring the flavors and fully enjoying each bite. Remember, the goal is not to avoid indulgence altogether, but rather to approach it with mindfulness and moderation. 2. Finding joy in movement can also be an essential part of treating your body well during the holidays. Engage in physical activities that you genuinely enjoy, whether it's dancing to your favorite holiday tunes, going for a walk in a winter wonderland, or practicing yoga to relax and recharge. Exercise should be a celebration of what your body can do, rather than a punishment for what you consume. 3. Moreover, the holidays are not just about food and fitness. They are an opportunity to express love, gratitude, and creativity. Think outside the box and find alternative ways to celebrate that extend beyond the typical healthy living articles. Consider creating homemade gifts for loved ones, organizing a virtual holiday concert, or even dedicating time to volunteer and spread cheer to those less fortunate. These acts of kindness and creativity nourish our souls and bring joy to our hearts – aspects of wellness that are just as important as physical health. "The key is to find joy in the present moment and to celebrate without guilt. Let go of perfection and embrace the imperfections of the holiday season. It's in those moments that we truly savor the joy and create lasting memories." ~ Kristianne Wargo By treating our bodies well during the holidays, we can find a joyful balance between indulgence and intentional living. It's about celebrating mindfully, nourishing our bodies with wholesome food, reveling in the delight of movement, and embracing the creative and meaningful aspects of the season. So, this holiday season, let's raise our glasses and savor the joy of celebration – with reserve, intentionality, and above all, gratitude for the incredible gift of life.   "Be present.

Be cautious not to indulge in the chaos-mocha coffee. Instead, pour a cup of grace. As we find ourselves juggling an endless to-do list, it can feel overwhelming, causing us to question everything around us. In these moments of chaos, it is essential that we take a step back and pour a cup of grace. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What are you drinking this holiday season? Are you one who is stuck in the chaos-mocha coffee? Are you sipping on the hustle 'n bustle cider? Are you gulping down the pomegranate energy drink? What are you drinking to stay on your game? Now, you can try to do it with all the stuff of this world. But at some point, something has to give. So embrace the power of grace during this festive time of year. Be kind to yourself. You know, yesterday, I found myself exposing my own hurts to benefit someone else's sabotage of me. Now they didn't know what was happening because it was all in my head.  But that's the problem. We get so wrapped up in our own heads, that we can't see what's right in front of us. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pour a cup of grace! "Grace is the beautiful gift you can give yourself when you're feeling overwhelmed and unsure. It's the inner peace that comes from accepting imperfections and simply embracing the present moment.” ~ Kristianne Wargo In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the never-ending cycle of busyness and perfectionism. The pressure to create picture-perfect memories can lead to feelings of inadequacy and disappointment. Christmas is not about perfection, but rather about the spirit of love and giving. By allowing yourself to let go of unrealistic expectations, you open up space for authentic connection and communication. During the Christmas season, it's important to remember that our to-do list does not define our worth. Be kind to yourself and prioritize what truly matters. Be kind. Be patient. Say no to overbooking yourself. Who needs one more thing on the list of commitments? Preserve your energy. By giving yourself permission to rest and recharge, you can approach each day this holiday season with a smile and a renewed sense of peace and joy.  Isn't that the real reason for the season? And don't forget, just as much as you need to pour yourself a cup of grace, extend that offer to others. Remember that everyone is fighting their own battles and may be feeling overwhelmed as well. By showing compassion and understanding towards others, you can create a supportive and nurturing environment. The simple act of offering a listening ear, a helping hand, or a kind word can make a world of difference during this hectic time of year. I was in a store yesterday needing to return a Christmas tree. And the gal rang me up, but then the options on the computer didn't match what I needed to accomplish. In my head, I was like, "Here we go! No one knows how to think outside the box from either the training or what needs to be done." But, a good thing for all, I packed my patience. All I did was smile sweetly and encourage her with gratitude. After 35 minutes of trying to get three items now returned, we left the store after being charged again for the tree I was trying to return, plus the two I brought in. Crazy situation. Yet, I knew that getting heated over the whole situation was not going to get me anywhere fast. In fact, I was wearing my sign that said, "Tell me your life story," and the gentleman behind me did just that. As the Christmas season unfolds, let us not forget the true essence of this joyous time. Let us take a step back from the chaos and pour a cup of grace, not only for ourselves but for those around us. Make this holiday season one that's filled with love, gratitude, and lasting memories. "Grace allows us to pause, breathe, and find solace amidst the chaos. It is a gentle reminder that it's okay to embrace imperfections and focus on what truly matters. So during this Christmas season, pour a cup of grace and savor the beauty of the present moment as you embrace imperfection in a season that was perfect on that silent night." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present.

Be cautious not to indulge in the chaos-mocha coffee. Instead, pour a cup of grace. As we find ourselves juggling an endless to-do list, it can feel overwhelming, causing us to question everything around us. In these moments of chaos, it is essential that we take a step back and pour a cup of grace. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Are you one who is stuck in the chaos-mocha coffee? Are you sipping on the hustle 'n bustle cider? Are you gulping down the pomegranate energy drink? What are you drinking to stay on your game? Now, you can try to do it with all the stuff of this world. But at some point, something has to give. So embrace the power of grace during this festive time of year. Be kind to yourself. You know, yesterday, I found myself exposing my own hurts to benefit someone else's sabotage of me. Now they didn't know what was happening because it was all in my head.  But that's the problem. We get so wrapped up in our own heads, that we can't see what's right in front of us. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pour a cup of grace! "Grace is the beautiful gift you can give yourself when you're feeling overwhelmed and unsure. It's the inner peace that comes from accepting imperfections and simply embracing the present moment.” ~ Kristianne Wargo In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the never-ending cycle of busyness and perfectionism.

Is the hustle and bustle taking over your day? Right now, breathe in the moment of joy and hope. Unwrap the gift of presence. One of the worst things we can allow to happen during this holiday season is letting it control our hearts, which in turn affects our well-being, our mindset.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    What you focus on is where you will be drawn toward. Have you ever noticed that when you are driving, you go where you look?  Christmas is a time of joy, peace, and hope. But is it for you this holiday season? Are you so stressed and overwhelmed that all you can think about is what you CAN'T do or what CAN'T be done? So let me ask you-- How's your Christmas going? Maybe you are starting to feel the stress because it's one week until Christmas. Lately, have you been feeling a bit worn out and drained? With so much on your plate, it's takes a toll on your energy and even then, you can't think straight. I went to mail some packages back to where I purchased them from, and the postmaster gal ask me if I was ready for Christmas. Well, in a milli-second, my mind saw the reel of how my house looked like a tornado blew through. But, and it was a big BUT.... I told her "Yes", because of all of this, meaning the packages I was returning. She quickly assumed I had all my gifts wrapped. However, in that moment, I crushed that thought because it wasn't true. Yet I did have something more precious ready. I was ready to unwrap the gift of presence! The K.I.S.S. ~ Unwrap the gift of presence! You see, Christmas is not about all that you have done. It's that you're ready to receive and be present. A gift of joy, hope, and peace was given on Christmas. No one had time to prepare for what was to come. But those who were ready to be present were gifted with the greatest gift of all. You can have a joy-filled Christmas, but it comes with a price. You have to be ready to unwrap the gift of presence. Only you can do that for yourself so that you can do that for others. Imagine giving your spouse, your children, your parents, your puppies and your kitty cats your undivided attention. Who cares about a clean house? Who really cares about how many sides there are with the turkey? Who really cares if there are a few piles of laundry? The pages on the calendar are going to flip where it will boldly proclaim, "It's Christmas!" So today, let's unwrap the gift of presence. 1. Recognize the Power of Your Mind Your mindset has a profound impact on your experiences during Christmas. By shifting your focus to the positive aspects of the season, you can transform the way you perceive and enjoy this special time. Remember the words from Romans 8:28, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Embrace this truth and let it shape your perspective. 2. Deal with Holiday Stress Christmas can bring about stress, whether it's related to shopping, hosting, or meeting the expectations of others. To prepare your heart and mind for the festivities, it's crucial to manage stress and cultivate calmness. Prioritize self-care by setting aside time for activities that bring you joy and help you relax. Additionally, set boundaries to protect your mental and emotional well-being. Remember that it's okay to say no and prioritize what truly matters. 3. Be Gratefully Happy In the midst of all the busyness, don't forget to practice gratitude and choose to be happy. Cultivating an attitude of happy gratitude can transform your entire holiday experience. Take a moment each day to reflect on the blessings in your life, big and small. Let Philippians 4:6 guide you: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Remember, when you smile more than you frown,  that's when you begin to unwrap the gift of presence. This Christmas will not be perfect. You are going to forget some gifts, even though you made the list and checked it more than twice.  But who wants a perfect Christmas? How about a Christmas where you get to have conversations with the ones you love and care deeply for? How about a Christmas where there is a resolve with confidence and calm? How about a Christmas where you can sit more than you stand? How about a Christmas where you have memories you will treasure and you don't have to look back at your phone to see what happened? How about a Christmas where you unwrap the gift of presence? May the Lord bless you and your family this season. Go in peace!   "Be present. Be incredible.

It extends far beyond the tinsel and presents of the holiday season; the promise of joy. You see, it is a timeless message that has resounded through the ages. It is the story of Christmas that reminds us of the power of belief and the boundless love that can transform lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    At the heart of this story is the Babe, wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. For some, this image evokes sentiments of wonder, reverence, and pure joy. But for many, the true meaning of this scene often gets shrouded in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The pressures of the world, the demands of work, and the complexities of our relationships can obscure the simple, yet profound, message of hope and salvation. When the grip of overwhelm tightens its hold on our lives, it can be easy to lose sight of what truly matters. It is during these moments of upheaval that we need to remind ourselves of the promise of joy that lies within Christmas. We need to remember that amidst the chaos, there is a calm, reassuring presence that can anchor our souls and guide us through the storms. In the Bible, we are told of the birth of Jesus and the tremendous significance it holds for humanity. In Luke 2:10-11, the angel announces to the shepherds, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." The K.I.S.S. ~ The promise of joy! Yesterday evening as I stood at the salad bar creating my famous decadent salad that's tantalizing to your tastebuds and mesmerizing to the eyes, a sweet southern gal came up to me and began the conversation.  At first, I thought I was wearing my sign, "Tell me your story." And I was, however, this story was the story of Christmas. As she refilled the bowls of salad makings, she poured into my soul, reminding me of the meaning of Christmas.  Now, in my mind, of course, I knew the real reason for the season. But she didn't know that. She was sharing the good news for all people and was beyond thrilled to encourage others by sharing the story of Christmas from Luke 2. As our conversation came to a close and my salad was prepared and ready to be devoured, it was in a matter of minutes that God showed up at the salad bar for her and for me.  The words of the angel, spoken that special night centuries ago, continue to resonate with us today. They serve as a powerful reminder that the promise of joy is not limited to one specific time or place. It is a promise that embraces all who are willing to receive it, regardless of their circumstances or background. When your world turns upside down, it is natural to seek control—a sense of stability and order amid the chaos. Yet, the real path to finding joy lies not in your ability to master your surroundings, but in surrendering to God. It is when you acknowledge that the promise of joy originated from God in the Heavens, a source far greater than yourself, that you begin to see the world in a different light. Oh, that silent night that brought the brightest light; the promise of joy! "The promise of joy lies not in our ability to control, but in our willingness to surrender. It is in the knowledge that joy is a gift freely given, waiting to be received by all who seek it." ~ Kristianne Wargo This Christmas, take a moment to pause and reflect on the profound message of joy that is the Christmas story. Open your heart to the possibility of embracing this promise in a different way than ever before, even amidst the chaos of your life. In doing so, there you will feel the Babe wrapping your heart with the promise of joy.    "Be present. Be incredible.

It extends far beyond the tinsel and presents of the holiday season; the promise of joy. You see, it is a timeless message that has resounded through the ages. It is the story of Christmas that reminds us of the power of belief and the boundless love that can transform lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    At the heart of this story is the Babe, wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. For some, this image evokes sentiments of wonder, reverence, and pure joy. But for many, the true meaning of this scene often gets shrouded in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The pressures of the world, the demands of work, and the complexities of our relationships can obscure the simple, yet profound, message of hope and salvation. When the grip of overwhelm tightens its hold on our lives, it can be easy to lose sight of what truly matters. It is during these moments of upheaval that we need to remind ourselves of the promise of joy that lies within Christmas. We need to remember that amidst the chaos, there is a calm, reassuring presence that can anchor our souls and guide us through the storms. In the Bible, we are told of the birth of Jesus and the tremendous significance it holds for humanity. In Luke 2:10-11, the angel announces to the shepherds, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." The K.I.S.S. ~ The promise of joy! Yesterday evening as I stood at the salad bar creating my famous decadent salad that's tantalizing to your tastebuds and mesmerizing to the eyes, a sweet southern gal came up to me and began the conversation.  At first, I thought I was wearing my sign, "Tell me your story." And I was, however, this story was the story of Christmas. As she refilled the bowls of salad makings, she poured into my soul, reminding me of the meaning of Christmas.  Now, in my mind, of course, I knew the real reason for the season. But she didn't know that. She was sharing the good news for all people and was beyond thrilled to encourage others by sharing the story of Christmas from Luke 2. As our conversation came to a close and my salad was prepared and ready to be devoured, it was in a matter of minutes that God showed up at the salad bar for her and for me.  The words of the angel, spoken that special night centuries ago, continue to resonate with us today. They serve as a powerful reminder that the promise of joy is not limited to one specific time or place. It is a promise that embraces all who are willing to receive it, regardless of their circumstances or background. When your world turns upside down, it is natural to seek control—a sense of stability and order amid the chaos. Yet, the real path to finding joy lies not in your ability to master your surroundings, but in surrendering to God. It is when you acknowledge that the promise of joy originated from God in the Heavens, a source far greater than yourself, that you begin to see the world in a different light. Oh, that silent night that brought the brightest light; the promise of joy! "The promise of joy lies not in our ability to control, but in our willingness to surrender. It is in the knowledge that joy is a gift freely given, waiting to be received by all who seek it." ~ Kristianne Wargo This Christmas, take a moment to pause and reflect on the profound message of joy that is the Christmas story. Open your heart to the possibility of embracing this promise in a different way than ever before, even amidst the chaos of your life. In doing so, there...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>418</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,bible,devotional,faith,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,holidays,hope,jesus,joy,leadership,love,mindset,presence,purpose,reflections,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2108db0a7632ec1adb19acbceb1a0f82.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3247 Build Tomorrow By Starting Today</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3247-build-tomorrow-by-starting-today--58026281</link><description><![CDATA[We often find ourselves caught up in the busyness of life, constantly putting off the things we know are important until tomorrow. But what if you prioritized the present? Build tomorrow by starting today. You have got to look at this in your marriage.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The holiday season can be particularly challenging for couples, as it brings with it a myriad of stressors, overwhelm, and financial pressures. From juggling family gatherings and obligations to managing expectations and navigating the holiday budget, it's easy for the joy and love to get lost amidst the chaos. But it's not too late to turn things around. By focusing on the power of today, you can slowly but surely create a more fulfilling tomorrow.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Build tomorrow by starting today! Here are three simple yet effective actions that can increase your day by 1% and, in turn, deepen your love for your spouse. 1. Express Gratitude Daily: Take a moment each day to express gratitude for your spouse and the love you share. Gratitude has a profound impact on our well-being and the quality of our relationships. Whether it's through a heartfelt conversation, a handwritten note, or a small act of kindness, let your spouse know how much you appreciate them. This simple practice can work wonders in strengthening your bond. 2. Practice Active Listening: Communication is the cornerstone of a healthy marriage, yet it's often taken for granted. Make a conscious effort to practice active listening when your spouse speaks. Put away distractions, maintain eye contact, and truly engage in the conversation. Show empathy, validate their feelings, and be fully present. By doing so, you not only strengthen the connection between you but also create a safe space for open and honest communication. 3. Prioritize Self-Care: It's easy to neglect ourselves when life gets chaotic, but taking care of your well-being is crucial for a thriving marriage. Make self-care a priority by setting aside time each day to focus on activities that rejuvenate you. Whether it’s going for a walk, reading a book, or practicing mindfulness, prioritize self-care to replenish your energy and be the best version for yourself and your spouse. You see, self-care impacts your confidence. Remember, building a better tomorrow starts with the choices you make today. By implementing these simple yet powerful actions, you can increase the happiness and love in your marriage by 1% each day. "When it comes to your marriage, tomorrow can't be fabulous if today isn't the focus." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, let go of the procrastination and seize the day. Your marriage--and your future together--will thank you for it.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Wrap the real gifts this Christmas.  There's only one more Friday after today before Christmas is here. And one thing I've noticed over the years is that the gifts keep getting smaller, but the price keeps getting bigger. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    I can remember when I would go to garage sales over the summer to prepare for Christmas that year. With a big family, I had to learn how to stretch the dollar and the budget. But then, what do you do when the kids are unhappy with what's under the tree? With all of the stuff that is out there, the competition of getting "the right gift" is out of this world crazy! However, as parents, we don't have to become so flustered. We can enjoy the holiday season even if the kiddos are disappointed about what they got. And that's all because the reason for the season is not the wrapped gifts under the tree. You just have to prepare so the heart will see. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prepare so the heart will see! In this article, we explore three effective strategies parents can implement to foster gratitude and appreciation in their little ones. 1. GRAVITY: What holds your heart? Emphasize the value of experiences over material possessions. In a world saturated with consumerism, it's essential to teach children that true happiness stems from experiences and cherished moments, rather than material things. Encourage your child to create a wishlist that includes activities, outings, or quality time spent with loved ones. By prioritizing experiences, parents can reframe their child's focus from physical gifts alone to meaningful interactions and shared memories. 2. GIVING: How can you serve from the heart? Encourage a spirit of giving and charity. Instilling a sense of empathy and compassion in children is crucial during the holiday season. Engage in charitable activities as a family, such as volunteering at a local shelter or participating in a toy drive. Encourage your child to select one cherished gift from under the tree to donate to someone less fortunate. By doing so, children will realize the impact they can make on others' lives, cultivating gratitude for what they have while fostering a sense of altruism. 3. GRATITUDE: How can you appreciate in the heart? Practice daily gratitude rituals. Make expressing gratitude a part of your family's daily routine. Create a gratitude jar, where each family member writes down something they are thankful for every day, and then read them aloud during mealtime or before bedtime. Additionally, encourage your child to write personalized thank-you notes to friends and family members who have given them gifts. By actively engaging in gratitude practices, parents can shape their child's mindset towards appreciation and foster an attitude of thankfulness. As Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Gratitude opens our eyes to the abundant blessings surrounding us, transforming our hearts that soon are decorated with life’s blessings that cannot part.” Remember, Christmas is more than just the gifts under the tree. It's a time for families to come together, create cherished memories, and celebrate the joy of giving. But when we can position our hearts to be the eyes under the tree, that’s how you make it Christmas all year round. So who’s ready to wrap the real gifts this Christmas and put them under the tree?

Encourage your child to create a wishlist that includes activities, outings, or quality time spent with loved ones. By prioritizing experiences, parents can reframe their child's focus from physical gifts alone to meaningful interactions and shared memories. 2. GIVING: How can you serve from the heart? Encourage a spirit of giving and charity. Instilling a sense of empathy and compassion in children is crucial during the holiday season. Engage in charitable activities as a family, such as volunteering at a local shelter or participating in a toy drive. Encourage your child to select one cherished gift from under the tree to donate to someone less fortunate. By doing so, children will realize the impact they can make on others' lives, cultivating gratitude for what they have while fostering a sense of altruism. 3. GRATITUDE: How can you appreciate in the heart? Practice daily gratitude rituals. Make expressing gratitude a part of your family's daily routine. Create a gratitude jar, where each family member writes down something they are thankful for every day, and then read them aloud during mealtime or before bedtime. Additionally, encourage your child to write personalized thank-you notes to friends and family members who have given them gifts. By actively engaging in gratitude practices, parents can shape their child's mindset towards appreciation and foster an attitude of thankfulness. As Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Gratitude opens our eyes to the abundant blessings surrounding us, transforming our hearts that soon are decorated with life’s blessings that cannot part.” Remember, Christmas is more than just the gifts under the tree. It's a time for families to come together, create cherished memories, and celebrate the joy of giving. But when we can position our hearts to be the eyes under the tree, that’s how you make it Christmas all year round. So who’s ready to wrap the real gifts this Christmas and put them under the tree?

Don't be swayed by comfort and convenience. Seize the silent night. Because you know what happens during the silent night?

"Tomorrow is the enemy of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo But if you find yourself discouraged and overwhelmed, honor your feelings for a moment, yet not for a season. Where you linger, you will stay. So bury your fears with unwavering action, and let your heart resonate with your deeds.  True resilience lies in the power of your actions rather than mere words. It is in these decisive moments that the seeds of greatness are sown and cultivated. When your back is against the wall, confront that which is holding you from moving forward. Remember, sheer determination and perseverance enable you to maintain your footing in the face of adversity, especially when you find yourself questioning life. Instead of yielding to the temptation of putting essential tasks off until tomorrow, embrace the present. As you know, the secret lies in the understanding that time is relentless, and every moment is precious. You can chase tomorrow, but the run will only hold you back from your goals.

But when you embrace the present, you empower yourself to create your now as a living legacy.  Tomorrow, with its tempting promises of comfort and complacency, can be the enemy of greatness. However, the key lies within your grasp. You got this! Be present. Ready your heart to do what you have not expected, because expectations only hold you back.

However, for many of us, this idealized image couldn't be further from their reality. Are your holidays unhealthy? Toxic and unhealthy people can create a hostile environment that dampens the holiday spirit. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    If you find yourself in such a situation, it's important to prioritize your health and well-being. By mentally, emotionally, and spiritually preparing yourself, you can navigate the toxicity and protect yourself from its negative impact. The K.I.S.S. ~ Support others by loving yourself first! Toxicity does not have to be the decorations on your heart or your body. Here are three strategies to help you turn your holidays around, regardless of how unhealthy they might seem. 1. Mental Preparation: When dealing with toxic individuals, it's important to remember that their behavior reflects their character, not yours. The way they treat others speaks volumes about their own internal struggles and issues. While hurtful comments or actions can be deeply painful, try not to take them personally. Recognize that their toxicity stems from their own unresolved emotions and insecurities. This realization can help you detach emotionally and shield yourself from their negative energy. Additionally, set boundaries to protect yourself. If attending a certain event will expose you to toxic behavior, consider the option of staying home, leaving early, or rearranging plans to prioritize your well-being. 2. Emotional Resilience: Accepting the fact that you cannot control other people's behavior is a powerful step toward maintaining emotional balance. Instead of absorbing the toxicity around you, observe it from a distance. Recognize the unhealthy patterns and realize that these individuals are unknowingly distancing themselves from their true potential. While this may evoke sadness, try not to let anger consume you. Avoid reacting to their negativity, as this only perpetuates the cycle. Rather take breaks when you feel yourself becoming reactive, focusing on deep breaths and finding moments of calm. 3. Spiritual Strength: For those who believe in Jesus, tapping into your spiritual foundation can provide invaluable support during difficult times. Remind yourself of your identity in Christ — a child of God, chosen and loved. Reflect on the truth that you are seen as perfect, forgiven, and valued by God. Before attending any holiday gatherings, read and meditate on Ephesians 6:10-18, finding strength in God's mighty power. Imagining yourself fully protected, cloaked in grace and truth, can provide a sense of security against any assaults on your self-worth. Just as you would don a hazardous materials suit in a toxic environment, consciously equip yourself with the full armor of God. With this armor, you can stand strong against lies and attacks, asserting your worth and protecting your well-being. Remember, prioritizing your own health and well-being is not selfish — it's crucial for your overall happiness and fulfillment. Toxic environments are not conducive to thriving, and you deserve to be in spaces that nourish and uplift you. By mentally preparing yourself, fostering emotional resilience, and finding strength in your spiritual foundation, you can turn around your holidays and embrace a healthier approach. Take care of yourself, knowing that you are stewarding yourself well.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what happens when you are tired, feeling lost, or thinking of making a change? Now is not the time to give up, but a time for a reset. Life has a way of throwing unexpected challenges our way, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and craving change. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes you get the nudge to do something different. Maybe it's because you're bored or you want something that challenges you differently.  It could be you find yourself on the wrong ladder, now needing to make a change in the air. It's in these moments that we can lose sight of who we truly are and the incredible strength we possess. But fear not, for within you lies the power to navigate your journey, forge ahead, and stay true to yourself. Just because you make a change doesn't mean you are compromising yourself. Change is a constant. It's okay to question where you are. Questioning does not have any reflection on how well you're doing or solidifying that what you are doing is where you are supposed to be.  A lot of the time, it's just time for a reset. The K.I.S.S. ~ Time for a reset! Time to think about what you are really doing, the people you are impacting, and where you are headed. Now, the answers to those thoughts might be a little scary because the last time you stopped long enough to look at where you are, you've changed. And most likely, for the better. So don't pigeonhole yourself into thinking that questions lead you in the wrong direction. In fact, it might lead you on a better path, good or indifferent. But regardless, make the time for a reset. I am not one who takes time off here from the podcast, but I gotta be honest with you. I'm thinking of doing it this year.  So where are you today? Are you feeling a little worn and torn? Are you in a position where you want to do something different but really don't know what that looks like? Is your heart pulling you in a different direction? As you delve into your thoughts, don't judge yourself. Give yourself the grace to embrace where you are so you can see where you're going next. And be okay if it's something different. Sometimes different is just that– different. It's not about better or worse.  So take the time for a reset.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what happens when you are tired, feeling lost, or thinking of making a change? Now is not the time to give up, but a time for a reset. Life has a way of throwing unexpected challenges our way, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and craving change. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes you get the nudge to do something different. Maybe it's because you're bored or you want something that challenges you differently.  It could be you find yourself on the wrong ladder, now needing to make a change in the air. It's in these moments that we can lose sight of who we truly are and the incredible strength we possess. But fear not, for within you lies the power to navigate your journey, forge ahead, and stay true to yourself. Just because you make a change doesn't mean you are compromising yourself. Change is a constant. It's okay to question where you are. Questioning does not have any reflection on how well you're doing or solidifying that what you are doing is where you are supposed to be.  A lot of the time, it's just time for a reset. The K.I.S.S. ~ Time for a reset! Time to think about what you are really doing, the people you are impacting, and where you are headed. Now, the answers to those thoughts might be a little scary because the last time you stopped long enough to look at where you are, you've changed. And most likely, for the better. So don't pigeonhole yourself into thinking that questions lead you in the wrong direction. In fact, it might lead you on a better path, good or indifferent. But regardless, make the time for a reset. I am not one who takes time off here from the podcast, but I gotta be honest with you. I'm thinking of doing it this year.  So where are you today? Are you feeling a little worn and torn? Are you in a position where you want to do something different but really don't know what that looks like? Is your heart pulling you in a different direction? As you delve into your thoughts, don't judge yourself. Give yourself the grace to embrace where you are so you can see where you're going next. And be okay if it's something different. Sometimes different is just that– different. It's not about better or worse.  So take the time for a reset.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Now, you can be one who lends yourself to the easy way and just sit back and learn to react with gumption.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But where does that really get you? What do you want in your life that you're willing to fight for? And not with violence or foul mouths or adult temper tantrums. I'm talking about really looking at where you are and where you want to be. If you are one who wants to live a life of purpose and impact, then it's the perfect time to reflect on your journey and take charge of your every day.  You have to be willing to make the necessary changes to change the trajectory of where you're headed. It's about embracing the call to leadership, even amidst challenges. Lead yourself well. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead yourself well! Leading yourself well requires dedication, resilience, and a steadfast commitment to personal development. You have to be willing to take an honest look at your life, all of it, not just one part; and really narrow down what needs to change. Your behavior. Your actions. Your mindset. Your tenacity. Your endurance. What is it for you? "If you want to be somewhere different than where you are, you have to lead yourself well." ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Cultivate Self-Awareness: Leading yourself begins with understanding who you are and what truly matters to you. Cultivating self-awareness enables you to make decisions that align with your values, aspirations, and principles. It means taking the time to explore your passions, morals, and even your flaws. Through introspection and honest self-reflection, you can gain clarity on your purpose and how you want to impact the world. For example, a corporate professional may realize that their true passion lies in social entrepreneurship. By embracing their self-awareness, they can take proactive steps to transition into a career that aligns with their values, such as starting a non-profit organization or partnering with existing enterprises focused on social impact. 2. Embrace Resilience: Leading yourself well requires an unwavering commitment to resilience. Life is rarely a smooth ride, and setbacks and challenges are inevitable. However, it's your response to these obstacles that define you as a leader. And think of embracing resilience as viewing setbacks as learning opportunities and maintaining a forward-focused mindset. Imagine an aspiring writer who faces multiple rejections before getting their work published. Instead of being disheartened, they view each rejection as a valuable chance to refine their craft and push themselves further. This resilience empowers them to persevere, eventually leading to their work being recognized and appreciated. 3. Practice Self-Care: Leading yourself well goes beyond achieving professional success— it also involves taking care of our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. When you practice self-care, it enables you to show up as the best version of yourself. It means carving out time for activities that rejuvenate and nourish your soul, whether it's engaging in hobbies, pursuing physical fitness, or spending time with those you care about.  A busy parent may set aside specific hours each week for self-care, such as practicing stretching, reading a book, or spending quality time with loved ones. By prioritizing their own well-being, they become more resilient, happier, and better equipped to lead their family with love and kindness. "Leading yourself well is serving from an overflow of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Leading yourself well is not a one-and-done; it's a lifelong journey that requires self-awareness, resilience, and self-care. By understanding your strengths, staying resilient in the face of challenges, and prioritizing your well-being, you can create your now that aligns with your values, dreams, and aspirations. "When you lead yourself well, you can impact the world you touch. Remember, one step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, accept the call to leadership. Dare to be misunderstood, criticized, opposed, accused, and even rejected. And then, be ready to blaze a trail of purpose and impact.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." ~ Matthew 6:21 As the holiday season unfolds, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of gift shopping, party planning, and endless to-do lists. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You should see my house right now. It's truly got boxes and bins all around. Trees are still going up in every room and the studio is being decorated for ore filming to do. In the midst of all the hustle and bustle, it's crucial to step back and remember what truly matters. After all, the joy of the holiday season lies not in the material possessions or extravagant celebrations, but in the love, gratitude, and kindness that fills our hearts; the Holy Presence, God himself. In Matthew 6:21, the Bible reminds us, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." This verse serves as a gentle nudge, urging us to shift our focus from the tangible gifts to the intangible blessings. It's a powerful reminder that the true reason for the holiday season lies in the abundance of love, compassion, and connection rather than what's neatly wrapped under the tree. Amidst the chaos of holiday preparations, it's important to take a moment to reflect on the essence of the season. Remember that the most meaningful gifts are not the ones that come with a price tag, but rather those that come from the heart. "The greatest gift we can give is our presence and our love. These gifts have the power to transcend material possessions and create lasting memories." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ For where your treasure is! This holiday season, make a conscious effort to embrace the true meaning of abundance. Instead of focusing on what the world sees, turn your attention to the overflow of love, gratitude, and joy that resides within us. Whether it's spending quality time with loved ones, volunteering for a charitable cause, or extending kindness to strangers, take every opportunity to pour out the abundance of your heart. After all, the real magic of the holiday season lies in the intangible. It's in the warm embrace of a loved one, the laughter shared over a home-cooked meal, and the genuine connections that make your heart beat faster and stronger. When you prioritize the treasures that truly matter, you begin to experience a transformation, both within yourself and in the world around you. So, this holiday season, remember to count the blessings that cannot be bought and let your heart overflow with love and gratitude. As you embark on this new year, may you find peace in the fact that the truest gifts in life cannot be wrapped, but rather are found within the depths of your hearts. "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." ~ Matthew 6:21   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You should see my house right now. It's truly got boxes and bins all around. Trees are still going up in every room and the studio is being decorated for ore filming to do. In the midst of all the hustle and bustle, it's crucial to step back and remember what truly matters. After all, the joy of the holiday season lies not in the material possessions or extravagant celebrations, but in the love, gratitude, and kindness that fills our hearts; the Holy Presence, God himself. In Matthew 6:21, the Bible reminds us, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." This verse serves as a gentle nudge, urging us to shift our focus from the tangible gifts to the intangible blessings. It's a powerful reminder that the true reason for the holiday season lies in the abundance of love, compassion, and connection rather than what's neatly wrapped under the tree. Amidst the chaos of holiday preparations, it's important to take a moment to reflect on the essence of the season. Remember that the most meaningful gifts are not the ones that come with a price tag, but rather those that come from the heart. "The greatest gift we can give is our presence and our love. These gifts have the power to transcend material possessions and create lasting memories." ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ For where your treasure is! This holiday season, make a conscious effort to embrace the true meaning of abundance. Instead of focusing on what the world sees, turn your attention to the overflow of love, gratitude, and joy that resides within us. Whether it's spending quality time with loved ones, volunteering for a charitable cause, or extending kindness to strangers, take every opportunity to pour out the abundance of your heart. After all, the real magic of the holiday season lies in the intangible. It's in the warm embrace of a loved one, the laughter shared over a home-cooked meal, and the genuine connections that make your heart beat faster and stronger. When you prioritize the treasures that truly matter, you begin to experience a transformation, both within yourself and in the world around you. So, this holiday season, remember to count the blessings that cannot be bought and let your heart overflow with love and gratitude. As you embark on this new year, may you find peace in the fact that the truest gifts in life cannot be wrapped, but rather are found within the depths of your hearts. "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." ~ Matthew 6:21   "Be present. Be incredible.

You don't want to think of everyone else and leave them out in the cold. So, meet me under the mistletoe. Yes, as married individuals, we tend to forget the importance of planning special times and moments for the ones we vowed to spend the rest of our lives with. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Why is that? Why do we sell them short of our attention and planning? You don't have to leave your sweetheart out in the cold. In fact, just tell him, "Meet me under the mistletoe." The K.I.S.S. ~ Meet me under the mistletoe! In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's easy to let our relationship with our spouse fall to the wayside. But this holiday season, let's make a conscious effort to prioritize our partner and create meaningful experiences together. Here are three things you can do to plan quality time with your spouse: 1. Schedule Present Nights: You can think of these as date nights. Set aside dedicated time each week solely for the two of you to reconnect and have fun. Whether it's going out for a romantic dinner, taking a leisurely walk in the park, or even staying in and watching a movie together, make it a regular occurrence. By intentionally carving out this time, you're showing your spouse that they are a priority in your life. 2. Surprise Gestures: Keep the spark alive by surprising your spouse with thoughtful gestures. It could be as simple as leaving a love note in their bag or sending a spontaneous text expressing your love and appreciation for them. Small acts of kindness and love can go a long way in nurturing your relationship. 3. Plan a Weekend Getaway: Take advantage of the holiday season by planning a weekend getaway with your spouse. Whether it's a cozy cabin in the woods or a luxurious hotel in the city, escaping the daily routine and immersing yourselves in a different environment can help reignite the romance and create lasting memories. Remember, the key to planning time with your spouse is intentionality. Don't let the pressures and distractions of life keep you from nurturing your relationship. By making your spouse a priority, you're strengthening the bond you share and creating a deeper connection that will endure. As I always say, "Love is not a noun; it's a verb. It requires action, intention, and dedication. Make the choice to love your spouse every day and create your now!" So this holiday season, meet me under the mistletoe and celebrate the love you share together.   "Be present. Be incredible.

During this holiday season, don't try too hard. Instead, tie a few ribbons on your gifts; the bow of traditions.  The holiday season is filled with joy, love, and the excitement of creating lasting memories with our families. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, it can also be a time when parents feel overwhelmed by the numerous obligations and expectations that come with the holidays. Sometimes it's so crazy that in all honesty, we just want to be alone. But if you have the blessing of a family, then make it count this holiday season and create traditions that are meaningful to your family. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace disruptive thinking! Here are three things parents can do to weave the bow of traditions without feeling bogged down. 1. Simplify: When it comes to holiday traditions, less is often more. Instead of trying to squeeze in every activity and event, take a step back and prioritize what truly matters to your family. Choose a few key traditions that align with your values and bring joy to everyone involved. By simplifying, you can create space for meaningful moments without feeling overwhelmed. "The magic of traditions lies not in their quantity, but in their quality. Choose the traditions that resonate with your family, and let them shine bright." ~ Kristianne Wargo For example, instead of aiming for a fully decked-out home, focus on a few treasured decorations that hold sentimental value. Rather than attending every holiday event, select one or two special outings that everyone looks forward to. By streamlining your holiday activities, you can savor each tradition and be fully present in the moment. 2. Recruit: Creating traditions should be a collaborative effort that involves all family members. Encourage open dialogue and brainstorming sessions where each person can contribute their ideas and wishes. This not only ensures that everyone feels included and invested in the traditions but also lightens the load of planning and organizing on the parents. For instance, hold a family meeting before the holiday season begins. During this meeting, each person gets a chance to suggest a tradition they would like to incorporate. From choosing a new recipe for a special holiday meal to deciding on an outdoor activity, everyone's ideas are considered and discussed. This inclusive approach not only brings the family closer but also shares the responsibility of creating traditions among all its members. 3. Tie it up with Joy: Many magical moments can be created through simple and heartfelt traditions. Let go of unrealistic expectations and tie the bow on the tradition. Focus on activities that bring genuine joy and allow for deeper connections. Remember that it's the quality of the experience that matters, not the extravagance. "Simplicity is the key that unlocks the spirit of traditions. It's in the little moments that the true magic resides." Consider incorporating small but meaningful traditions, such as reading holiday stories by the fireplace, having a movie night with beloved classic films, or engaging in acts of kindness as a family. These simple gestures can create timeless memories and strengthen the bonds within your family. "The Bow of Traditions" by Kristianne Wargo In a world of constant motion and change, Where time slips by, our memories rearranged, There lies a gift that ties our hearts together, A bow of traditions we'll cherish forever.   With each passing year, the tapestry grows, Weaving threads of love, every story it knows, From bedtime tales whispered in the night, To shared laughter around the fire's warm light.   The bow of traditions, a treasure unique, A bond that strengthens, never to weaken, Through seasons and holidays, it's our guide, Creating moments we'll forever keep inside.   From holiday baking, flour in the air, To giving back, showing others we care, Simplifying, prioritizing what truly matters, With family, these traditions our hearts flatter.   As I once wisely proclaimed, "In the traditions we share, deep love is ingrained." For it's not the grandness, but in the simple things, That the bow of traditions true happiness brings.   So let us gather, hand in hand, Creating memories that forever will expand, With each new chapter written in our story, The bow of traditions, an everlasting glory.

Look instead to who God is creating you to be. Let your light shine with a radiance that only you have to share. Each of us was created to shine. So in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it's easy to lose sight of our true purpose – to embrace our unique radiance and share it with the world. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We often find ourselves getting caught up in comparing our lives to others', feeling inadequate and overshadowed by the glitz and glamour around us. But it's important to remember that you were not meant to blend in; you were created to stand out. "Your radiance is not meant to be hidden, but rather to be shared with the world." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's time to let go of the insecurities that hold us back and embrace the beauty and brilliance that shines deep within our souls. Radiance is not about physical appearance or material possessions; it's a state of being that emanates from within. It's about embracing your true self, nurturing your passions, and sharing your authentic gifts with others. When you let your light shine, you inspire those around you to do the same, creating a ripple effect of positivity and empowerment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace your radiance! Take some time to reflect on your unique strengths, values, and passions. What makes you feel alive? What brings you joy? Embrace these aspects of yourself and let them guide your actions. And as things get a little crazy and chaotic, pause to appreciate the blessings in your life. Gratitude has a way of shifting our perspective and illuminating the beauty that surrounds us. So, let it shift you as you embrace your radiance.  Let your imperfections and flaws be the diamonds in the rough that give you the extra sass that makes you uniquely beautiful. It's these imperfections that add to your radiance and make you relatable to others. Seek to inspire to raise up those around you. This will create a circle of love and encouragement that fuels your radiance. As you navigate the holiday season, remember that your radiance is not dependent on the external factors of the world. It's a gift that resides within you, waiting to be shared with others. Embrace your uniqueness, allow your light to shine brightly, and watch as you create a ripple effect of love and inspiration. May this holiday season be a time of self-discovery, self-love, and self-expression. Embrace your radiance, my friend, and let it illuminate the world around you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Bad habits can lead us to unconventional decisions that cause us to react instead of respond. Don't let your health be a gift that is stolen this season. The holiday season is a time of joy, gratitude, and celebration. It's also a time of indulgence, with tempting treats and festive feasts at every turn. For those who strive to live a healthy lifestyle, this can present a real challenge. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Are you the kind of person who claims to prioritize your health, but finds yourself succumbing to unhealthy habits during the holiday season? If so, it's time to take a closer look at your choices and make a change. Don't let your body be the Grinch that steals your well-being. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't let your body be the Grinch that steals your well-being! This article will provide three actionable steps you can take this holiday season to spearhead your healthy living lifestyle. 1. Plan Ahead: It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, leaving little time for self-care. To avoid falling into the trap of unhealthy habits, take the time to plan ahead. Schedule your workouts like you would any other appointment. Pencil them into your calendar and treat them as non-negotiable. By prioritizing your physical activity, you'll be less likely to skip it in favor of other obligations. Additionally, plan your meals and snacks in advance. Have healthy options readily available to avoid mindless eating and overindulgence. 2. Know What You Eat: The holiday season is synonymous with delicious and decadent food. While it's certainly okay to enjoy your favorite treats in moderation, practicing mindful eating can help you stay on track. And that doesn't just mean moderation. Before reaching for a snack or diving into a meal, take a moment to check in with your body. Ask yourself if you're hungry or if you're eating out of habit or boredom. Try to savor each bite, appreciating the flavors and textures. Eating slowly and mindfully can help you recognize when you're satisfied, preventing overeating. "When we approach our food choices with mindfulness, we tap into the power of our bodies to guide us towards nourishment and balance." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Stay Active as a Family: The holiday season is the perfect time to bond with loved ones. Instead of spending your days lounging on the couch, make physical activity a family affair. Bundle up and go for a brisk walk or play a friendly game of touch football. Engage in physical activities together to not only promote overall health but also strengthen the bonds between family members. It's a win-win situation that allows you to enjoy the season while staying true to your healthy living goals. Don't let your body become the Grinch that steals your joy and vitality. Make conscious decisions that align with your goals and values, and let your health and well-being be the shining star of this festive season. "Living a healthy lifestyle is not about perfection; it's about progress. Every small step forward counts towards a lifetime of wellness." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

But as the celebrations begin, don't forget to light the lights in your life. Life can often feel like a whirlwind, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and unsure of which direction we're headed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As the holiday season approaches and the hustle and bustle of festivities begin, it's essential to take a step back and remember to light the lights in your life. In this fast-paced world, we can easily get caught up in the chaos, striving for perfection in every aspect of our lives. We rush from one commitment to another, constantly ticking off items on our never-ending to-do lists. But amidst all the busyness, it's important to pause and reflect on what truly matters. "Life is not about how fast we race through it, but how much light we bring into each moment," says Kristianne Wargo, a believer in finding joy in life's simple pleasures. "When we take a moment to appreciate the small things and focus on the positive, we can transform our experience, no matter how chaotic it may be." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's easy to get wrapped up in the materialistic aspects of the holiday season, striving for the perfect decorations, the most impressive gifts, and the grandest parties. But true joy cannot be found in the external trappings; it lies within the connections you forge with your loved ones and the warmth you bring to your heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Light the lights in your life! So in the midst of chaos, take a moment to tune in to your thoughts and feelings. Let your presence be the sparkle in your every day so you can enjoy the simple blessings and pleasures before you.  Whether it's the smell of freshly baked cookies or the sound of laughter shared with family, it's these moments that help you find peace amidst the chaos. Light the lights in your life. Let the sparkle of your heartbeat be the gratitude that soothes your chaotic spirit. Calm down. Whether we want to admit it or not, this too shall pass. And with the gratefulness of what's before you, then the stress melts away. Who doesn't need a little stress relief? Light the lights in your life. Now as the hours pass and the clock strikes midnight, don't be the one left hanging out in the cold by yourself. Take care of your heart this season. Give yourself that little pick-me-up chat every moment you need it. How else do you create your now? "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Turn on your sparkle. Let your smile shine. Light the lights in your life.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But as the celebrations begin, don't forget to light the lights in your life. Life can often feel like a whirlwind, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and unsure of which direction we're headed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As the holiday season approaches and the hustle and bustle of festivities begin, it's essential to take a step back and remember to light the lights in your life. In this fast-paced world, we can easily get caught up in the chaos, striving for perfection in every aspect of our lives. We rush from one commitment to another, constantly ticking off items on our never-ending to-do lists. But amidst all the busyness, it's important to pause and reflect on what truly matters. "Life is not about how fast we race through it, but how much light we bring into each moment," says Kristianne Wargo, a believer in finding joy in life's simple pleasures. "When we take a moment to appreciate the small things and focus on the positive, we can transform our experience, no matter how chaotic it may be." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's easy to get wrapped up in the materialistic aspects of the holiday season, striving for the perfect decorations, the most impressive gifts, and the grandest parties. But true joy cannot be found in the external trappings; it lies within the connections you forge with your loved ones and the warmth you bring to your heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Light the lights in your life! So in the midst of chaos, take a moment to tune in to your thoughts and feelings. Let your presence be the sparkle in your every day so you can enjoy the simple blessings and pleasures before you.  Whether it's the smell of freshly baked cookies or the sound of laughter shared with family, it's these moments that help you find peace amidst the chaos. Light the lights in your life. Let the sparkle of your heartbeat be the gratitude that soothes your chaotic spirit. Calm down. Whether we want to admit it or not, this too shall pass. And with the gratefulness of what's before you, then the stress melts away. Who doesn't need a little stress relief? Light the lights in your life. Now as the hours pass and the clock strikes midnight, don't be the one left hanging out in the cold by yourself. Take care of your heart this season. Give yourself that little pick-me-up chat every moment you need it. How else do you create your now? "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Turn on your sparkle. Let your smile shine. Light the lights in your life.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But when someone outdoes your efforts, your gift becomes the trigger of comparison. This season, unwrap your happiness. You want to get that unique, special gift, so you spend hours scouring the internet, seeking the gift that no one else would think of, only to be met with disappointment when your efforts fail to get the reaction you want. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This disappointment often triggers a spiral of emotions that can consume you throughout the holiday season. Then, you find yourself comparing your gift-giving abilities to others and feeling frustrated with your perceived failures. But this year, let's break free from the shackles of comparison and embrace a Christmas filled with love and joy. The K.I.S.S. ~ Break free from the shackles of comparison! Here is what it looks like to escape the comparison trap and foster a mindset of gratitude and appreciation before the exchange of gifts. 1. Realign your focus: Instead of fixating on finding the perfect gift, shift your attention to the true essence of the holiday season – spending quality time with loved ones. Remind yourself that the joy of Christmas lies not in material possessions but in the connections and memories we create with those we cherish. 2. Embrace authenticity: Recognize that every person and relationship is unique. Instead of attempting to outdo others with extravagant gifts, embrace the power of thoughtful gestures that are personalized and meaningful. By focusing on what truly resonates with the recipient, you can create a genuine and heartfelt connection that goes beyond material possessions. 3. Cultivate gratitude: Before the exchange of gifts, take a moment to reflect on the blessings in your life. Count your own achievements, cherish the love you have received, and appreciate the effort others have put into their gifts. Gratitude fills our hearts with joy and contentment, providing a shield against comparison and fostering a mindset of abundance. "Comparison is the thief of joy." ~ Theodore Roosevelt Let this be the mantra guiding your holiday season. Take a step back, breathe, and remember that the joy we seek doesn't lie in the perfect gift, but in the love and connection we share with our loved ones. So, this Christmas, release yourself from the never-ending spiral of comparison and frustration. Instead, embrace a mindset of love and joy, focusing on the precious moments and the abundance of blessings surrounding you. Remember, the gift of love and presence is always more valuable than any material possession. Embrace this holiday season with an open heart, and watch as love and joy fill your life.   "Be present.

Rekindle the Spirit of Christmas. It is in the spirit of Christmas that we find the true essence of joy, love, and redemption. By delving into the biblical narrative of Jesus' birth, we have the opportunity to rekindle the flame of wonder and awe that comes with understanding God's plan for our lives. Through His Word, we can find guidance on how to make this Christmas truly meaningful. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We encounter Mary, a young woman chosen by God to bear His Son, and Joseph, a humble carpenter who faithfully obeys God's instructions. As the couple embarks on their journey to Bethlehem, we see their unwavering faith and trust in God's plan unfold. Luke 2:10-11 declares, "But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is the Messiah, the Lord.'" The Christmas story is filled with ordinary people touched by the extraordinary hand of God. From the lowly shepherds who were visited by a host of angels proclaiming the birth of the Messiah (Luke 2:8-14) to the wise men who followed the star and brought gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh (Matthew 2:1-11), we witness individuals who were able to see what God saw before Jesus was born. They recognized the significance of this miraculous event and allowed it to transform their lives. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rekindle the Spirit of Christmas! In order to glimpse what God saw before Jesus was born this season in our lives, we must approach Christmas with open hearts and minds. We can start by reflecting on the true meaning of Christ's birth – the gift of salvation and the immeasurable love of our Heavenly Father. By immersing ourselves in the Scriptures and meditating on passages such as Isaiah 9:6, which says, "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace," we can better comprehend the magnitude of God's plan and His purpose for sending His Son into the world. This season, let us rekindle the Spirit of Christmas by embodying the qualities that defined Jesus' ministry: love, compassion, forgiveness, and selflessness. "Christmas is not just a day, it's a state of the heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo Let our actions and words reflect the true spirit of the season and spread the message of hope and redemption to those around us. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, may we see beyond the earthly trappings and find joy in the presence of the One who came to save us. By rekindling the flame of wonder and awe that comes with understanding God's plan for our lives, we can experience the true spirit of Christmas and draw closer to the profound love and grace of our Savior. This season, let us allow the story of His birth to transform our lives and bring light, hope, and peace to the world around us.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Many spouses have experienced this dilemma, where they sense that there is an underlying issue, but struggle to identify what it is. If you can relate to this, then it's time to take a closer look at the signs that may be unveiling themselves during this holiday season. The K.I.S.S. ~ Follow the signs! In a strong and thriving marriage, the key lies in being effective, rather than being right. As Kristianne Wargo wisely says, "Effectiveness is where love resides." So, instead of fixating on who is right or wrong, focus on taking the necessary steps to address the signs that are revealing themselves that will potentially strengthen your marriage. 1. Pay attention to subtle changes During the holiday season, it's common for routines and dynamics to shift. Take notice of any subtle changes in your spouse's behavior, mood, or communication patterns. Are they more withdrawn than usual, or perhaps more irritable? Are they avoiding certain conversations or becoming defensive? These small shifts can often be indicative of underlying issues. By observing and acknowledging these changes, you are taking the first step toward understanding what may be going on beneath the surface. 2. Engage in open and honest communication Communication is the foundation of any successful marriage. If you sense that something is not right, it is crucial to engage in open and honest conversations with your spouse. Create a safe and non-threatening environment where both of you can express your thoughts and concerns without fear of judgment or defensiveness. By actively listening and seeking to understand each other's perspectives, you will facilitate a deeper connection and potentially unveil the signs that are hiding beneath the surface. 3. Seek professional guidance Sometimes, despite our best efforts, we need external support to navigate through challenging times in our marriage. If you find yourself continuously struggling to identify and address the signs, it may be beneficial to seek the guidance of a marriage counselor or therapist. These professionals are trained to help couples uncover and work through underlying issues, providing a safe space for both partners to express themselves and find solutions. Remember, seeking help is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of your commitment to the health and growth of your relationship. If you have a nagging feeling that something is amiss in your marriage, don't ignore it. Instead, follow the signs that this holiday season may be unveiling. Focus on being effective rather than being right, and prioritize open communication, active listening, and seeking professional guidance when needed. By taking these steps, you may be able to uncover the hidden truths within your relationship and move toward a stronger, more fulfilling partnership.

However, for many of us, it can also be a period of overwhelming stress. But fear not! From juggling family obligations to dealing with financial pressures and managing expectations, the holiday season can leave us feeling drained and exhausted. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    With a little planning and a few self-care strategies, you can minimize stress before it overwhelms you. Here are three things you can do to keep calm and enjoy the holiday season: The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep calm and carry on! 1. Set Realistic Expectations One of the primary sources of stress during the holidays is the pressure we put on ourselves to create the "perfect" holiday experience. Remember, perfection is an illusion. Instead of striving for unattainable ideals, focus on what truly matters: spending quality time with loved ones. Prioritize activities and events that bring you joy and let go of the rest. Simplify your to-do list and delegate tasks to others. Remember, you don't have to do it all alone. "It's important to have realistic expectations during the holiday season. Trying to do too much can lead to stress and burnout. Focus on what truly matters and let go of the rest." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Practice Self-Care Taking care of yourself is essential, especially during the busy holiday season. Make self-care a priority by setting aside time each day for activities that promote relaxation and well-being. Engage in activities that rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit, such as practicing yoga, going for a walk, reading a book, or enjoying a warm bath. Prioritize sleep and make sure to get enough rest each night. Remember, you cannot pour from an empty cup, so make sure to replenish your energy. 3. Communicate and Set Boundaries Family dynamics can add another layer of stress during the holidays. It's essential to communicate openly with your family members and set clear boundaries to avoid conflicts. Be honest about your limitations and discuss your expectations for the holiday season. This can help prevent misunderstandings and reduce tension. Learn to say "no" gracefully if an invitation or request doesn't align with what you need or can handle at the moment. Remember, it's okay to put yourself first and prioritize your well-being. You can minimize stress and create a more enjoyable and meaningful holiday season. Create your now! And that comes by setting realistic expectations, practicing self-care, and communicating openly with your loved ones. Remember, the holidays are about love and connection – don't let stress overshadow the joy! "Take care of yourself during the holiday season. In doing so, you can better care for others and create lasting memories." -Kristianne Wargo The holiday season can be the most wonderful time of the year, filled with love and happiness. By incorporating these strategies into your routine, you can navigate family dynamics and stress with grace and ease, allowing you to truly savor the joys of the season.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What if you were to get up on the right side of the bed and decide to feel the way you want? Inspire yourself to inspire others. In this fast-paced world where we often seek external validation and inspiration from others, we often forget that it is within ourselves where true motivation lies. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Imagine waking up every morning on the right side of the bed, empowered to feel the way you want to feel, and in turn, becoming a source of inspiration for others. It's time to break free from the cycle of relying on others to make you feel a certain way and instead, take charge of your own inspiration. As you know, life is full of ups and downs, but it doesn't have to feel like we are always stuck in a deep ditch. We have the power to shape our own reality and create the life we desire. "Sometimes what we want comes from what we do." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's not about waiting for someone else to light that fire within us; rather, it's about taking A.I.M. and becoming the source of inspiration that others seek. Inspiration begins in the mind and starts with a mindset shift. When you change your perspective and choose to focus on the positive aspects of life, you naturally radiate that positivity to those around you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Inspire yourself to inspire others! It's a ripple effect, where the energy you put out into the world has the power to influence others in profound ways. When you take responsibility for your own inspiration, you become more mindful of your thoughts and actions, leading to a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life. Discovering what truly inspires you is key to unlocking your potential. It could be as simple as pursuing a hobby, seeking personal growth through self-help books, or surrounding ourselves with like-minded individuals who uplift and support us. Are you investing time in what lights you up? Your heart needs to be decorated, too. And when that happens, you not only fuel your own inspiration but you also become a shining example for others to follow. Remember, inspiration doesn't always have to come from external sources. In fact, some of the most powerful inspirations are self-generated. Get ready to tap into an inner well of motivation that can move mountains. Embrace your own passions and unique strengths to empower you to inspire others on a whole new level. As you embark on this journey to inspire yourself and others, keep in mind "Sometimes what we want comes from what we do. ~ Kristianne Wargo" So, rise and shine, and take charge of your own inspiration today. The world is waiting for your light to shine bright and inspire others to do the same.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

What if you were to get up on the right side of the bed and decide to feel the way you want? Inspire yourself to inspire others. In this fast-paced world where we often seek external validation and inspiration from others, we often forget that it is within ourselves where true motivation lies. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Imagine waking up every morning on the right side of the bed, empowered to feel the way you want to feel, and in turn, becoming a source of inspiration for others. It's time to break free from the cycle of relying on others to make you feel a certain way and instead, take charge of your own inspiration. As you know, life is full of ups and downs, but it doesn't have to feel like we are always stuck in a deep ditch. We have the power to shape our own reality and create the life we desire. "Sometimes what we want comes from what we do." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's not about waiting for someone else to light that fire within us; rather, it's about taking A.I.M. and becoming the source of inspiration that others seek. Inspiration begins in the mind and starts with a mindset shift. When you change your perspective and choose to focus on the positive aspects of life, you naturally radiate that positivity to those around you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Inspire yourself to inspire others! It's a ripple effect, where the energy you put out into the world has the power to influence others in profound ways. When you take responsibility for your own inspiration, you become more mindful of your thoughts and actions, leading to a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life. Discovering what truly inspires you is key to unlocking your potential. It could be as simple as pursuing a hobby, seeking personal growth through self-help books, or surrounding ourselves with like-minded individuals who uplift and support us. Are you investing time in what lights you up? Your heart needs to be decorated, too. And when that happens, you not only fuel your own inspiration but you also become a shining example for others to follow. Remember, inspiration doesn't always have to come from external sources. In fact, some of the most powerful inspirations are self-generated. Get ready to tap into an inner well of motivation that can move mountains. Embrace your own passions and unique strengths to empower you to inspire others on a whole new level. As you embark on this journey to inspire yourself and others, keep in mind "Sometimes what we want comes from what we do. ~ Kristianne Wargo" So, rise and shine, and take charge of your own inspiration today. The world is waiting for your light to shine bright and inspire others to do the same.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But why wait for the new year or society's approval? It's time to break the silence and take charge of your well-being. "Don't let the world silence your dreams. Speak up, rise up, and create a life that nourishes your soul." ~ Kristianne Wargo Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Create your now! The K.I.S.S. ~ Break the silence! The one thing many of us forget is that you have a choice to make the decision that is right for you. 1. Dare to Be Different: Society often conditions us to conform and follow accepted norms. But breaking the silence means daring to be different and embracing a unique path tailored to your personal well-being. Whether it's adopting a new exercise routine, exploring a plant-based diet, or practicing mindfulness techniques, be open to unconventional approaches that resonate with your true self. Remember, it's your journey, and you have the power to pave your own way. 2. Embrace Imperfection: Waiting for the stars to align or for everything to be perfect can hinder progress and keep you stagnant. Embracing imperfection means not waiting for everything to be optimal before taking the first step toward a healthier lifestyle. Start today, right where you are, and make small but consistent changes. Progress, no matter how small, is still progress. Don't let the fear of failure or judgment hold you back from creating the life you desire. 3. Surround Yourself with Support: Breaking the silence can be challenging, and it's crucial to surround yourself with a supportive community that encourages and uplifts you. Seek out like-minded individuals who share your passion for healthy living and connect with them through online communities, local groups, or fitness classes. Together, you can foster an environment of growth, inspire each other, and create a powerful network of support that will fuel your progress. Embrace the beauty of breaking the silence and starting anew in unconventional times. The time for healthy living is now. As Kristianne Wargo rightly says, "Your voice matters. Your choices matter. Break the silence and create your now; a day in your life that nourishes your body, mind, and spirit."   "Be present. Be incredible.

Unleash the magic within. In a world filled with bustling schedules and endless to-do lists, the close of Thanksgiving signals the start of a new season – the Christmas season filled with hope, love, and joy. As the pressure to prepare for this magical time of year sweeps over us, it is essential to take a step back and reflect on the boundless possibilities that lie ahead. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It is a time when communities come alive with shimmering lights, heartwarming melodies, and the laughter of children filled with wonder. This season reveals the magic that dwells within each of us, waiting to be set free. It is with great pleasure that I share with you, dear readers, a gentle reminder of the transformative power that lies within the Christmas season. As we navigate through the jingling bells and bustling holiday crowds, let us not lose sight of the hope and inspiration that the holidays bring.  "Christmas is not just a season; it's a state of mind that can last all year long. The preparation for what's to come." ~ Kristianne Wargo These words carry a profound truth. The spirit of Christmas encourages us to open our hearts, express gratitude, and cultivate a sense of wonder that extends far beyond the holiday season. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unleash the magic within! Imagine a world where acts of kindness are not reserved only for the month of December but are woven into the fabric of everyday life. Picture a society that embraces empathy, love, and compassion year-round, focusing on the magic found in each and every moment. During this busy season, take a moment to connect with what truly matters. It's the joy of a shared meal with family and friends, the warmth of embraces and laughter, and the generosity that comes from giving without expectation. Take comfort in the fact that the true essence of Christmas can never be found in material possessions but rather in the intangible gifts of love, peace, and togetherness. As the season unfolds, indulge in the excitement of decorating homes with twinkling lights, baking delicious treats, and creating cherished memories. Aim to spread joy to those who may be grieving, lonely, or in need of a simple act of kindness. By giving a small piece of yourself to others, you open up a space within your heart where the true magic of Christmas dwells. In the chaos that often accompanies this season, it is essential to remember that you have the power to create the Christmas you desire. Embrace the challenges and uncertainties with grace, knowing that they only serve to make the triumphs and moments of serendipity even more extraordinary. It is my sincerest wish that this Christmas, you find yourself intertwined in the enchantment and allure that the season brings. Embrace the spirit of hope, love, and joy that lies within you and, in turn, inspire those around you to do the same. May this Christmas season be a reminder of the endless possibilities that life holds, and may the magic of the holidays ignite a fire within you that burns brightly throughout the year. Unleash the magic within.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Aim to spread joy to those who may be grieving, lonely, or in need of a simple act of kindness. By giving a small piece of yourself to others, you open up a space within your heart where the true magic of Christmas dwells. In the chaos that often accompanies this season, it is essential to remember that you have the power to create the Christmas you desire. Embrace the challenges and uncertainties with grace, knowing that they only serve to make the triumphs and moments of serendipity even more extraordinary. It is my sincerest wish that this Christmas, you find yourself intertwined in the enchantment and allure that the season brings. Embrace the spirit of hope, love, and joy that lies within you and, in turn, inspire those around you to do the same. May this Christmas season be a reminder of the endless possibilities that life holds, and may the magic of the holidays ignite a fire within you that burns brightly throughout the year. Unleash the magic within.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But what about how it applies to your mindset and leadership? When you understand the power of patterns, your life will be transformed. Patterns go far beyond aesthetics, permeating every aspect of our lives. From our daily routines to our thoughts and behaviors, patterns shape who we are and how we lead.

Think about how you went about cooking for Thanksgiving, whether it was the entire meal or a side or two. You had a pattern, a rhythm that helped you remember what you needed to do and how you preceded in the moment. When you unlock the power of patterns, you unlock the key to personal transformation and effective leadership. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unlock the power of patterns by seeing what you didn't know before! Because how much are you paying attention to your patterns, good or bad? Most of the time, we just go through the motions because it's faster and quicker. We don't have to overthink which can lead to overwhelm. But you can see your patterns. 1. Mindful Observation: The first step to understanding and recognizing patterns in your life is through mindful observation. Take a step back and become aware of your thought patterns, emotions, and actions. Are there specific triggers that consistently lead to certain outcomes? By observing yourself without judgment, you can identify recurring patterns that either serve you or hold you back. 2. Reflect and Analyze: Once you become aware of patterns, it's crucial to reflect and analyze them. Look for common themes and connections between different areas of your life. Are there recurring issues or challenges that surface in relationships, work, or personal growth? By examining these patterns, you can gain insights into your strengths, weaknesses, and areas where change is needed. 3. Seek Patterns in Others: Understanding and recognizing patterns in your own life is powerful, but it doesn't stop there. Expand your awareness of the patterns in others. By observing and understanding the patterns in your team members, colleagues, or loved ones, you can better relate to them, provide support, and tap into collective strengths. This empathy and understanding will enhance your leadership and foster stronger relationships. "Patterns are the breadcrumbs guiding us towards self-discovery and growth." ~ Kristianne Wargo By understanding and recognizing patterns within yourself and others, you embark on a journey of self-awareness, personal growth, and effective leadership.

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 4:6-7 When we are overwhelmed and struggling silently, cultivating gratitude can help us reframe our perspective. Gratitude has the power to shift our focus from what we lack to the blessings that surround us. It is in these moments that we find renewal. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Philippians 4:6 begins with the instruction to "be anxious about nothing." But what does it mean to present our "requests to God by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving"?  Prayer: By engaging in prayer, we take the time to communicate with God in an intimate and personal way. It is through prayer that we express our hopes, fears, worries, and desires. It serves as a channel to connect with God, seeking guidance, strength, and peace. Petition: Petitioning God involves laying our specific requests and concerns before Him. It is the act of earnestly seeking His intervention and supplicating for His will to be done in our lives. In our moments of struggle and weariness, we can find comfort in the assurance that God hears our petitions and answers them according to His perfect wisdom. The K.I.S.S. ~ By prayer and petition! Remember, you are not alone in this journey. The Bible teaches us in Psalm 23:1-3, "The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul." Just as a shepherd takes care of his flock, God is always there to guide you, renew your spirit, and restore your weary soul. But in every situation, by prayer and petition. Discovering Peace: The Power of Gratitude Our passage then instructs us to present our requests "with thanksgiving." Gratitude is a transformative attitude that helps shift our focus from our problems and anxieties to the blessings and goodness that surround us. 1. Reframing our Perspective: Gratitude enables us to see beyond our circumstances, reminding us of the countless reasons to be thankful. It changes our perspective and helps us find hope even in the midst of challenges. 2. Cultivating a Peaceful Mindset: A heart filled with gratitude is a heart at peace. It creates space for tranquility to enter our lives, providing a source of comfort and renewal. As we acknowledge and appreciate the blessings we have, the peace of God transcends our understanding and guards our hearts and minds. 3. Strengthening Our Faith: Gratitude deepens our connection with God, fostering a sense of trust and dependency on Him. By recognizing His goodness and provision, we develop unwavering faith, knowing that He will continue to guide and support us through every trial and tribulation. Remember the words of the apostle Paul, "The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." May this peace be with you always. Allow yourself the time and space to rest, reflect, and reimagine what is truly important. See your life with the lenses from Heaven. Know that you are strong, loved, and capable of embracing the peace that surpasses all understanding.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you applied that to marriage? Is your marriage better than a Black Friday Deal? People respond to Black Friday with the excitement, the rush, the determination to get that coveted item at an incredible price – it's palpable. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if you were to apply that same fervor and dedication to your marriage? Would it result in a better, more fulfilling relationship? If you put in as much time into your marriage as you do to shopping Black Friday deals, imagine how much farther you could be as a couple? Spend your money and your time wisely on what really matters...Your marriage! The K.I.S.S. ~ Spend your money and your time wisely! Let's delve into what a spouse can do to have a marriage that surpasses even the most sought-after Black Friday specials. 1. Prioritize Communication: In the midst of the chaos that a Black Friday sale brings, communication becomes crucial. Couples need to communicate effectively and clearly, just like bargain hunters strategize their shopping spree. Open lines of communication in a marriage create a strong foundation for understanding, empathy, and compromise. Taking the time to listen and express your thoughts and feelings can make a tremendous difference in resolving conflicts, improving intimacy, and strengthening the overall connection between spouses. "Communication is the lifeline of any relationship. It allows both partners to understand, support, and grow together." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Embrace Gratitude: In the frenzy of searching for the best deal, it's easy to lose sight of what we already have. Similarly, in marriage, it's essential to cultivate an attitude of gratitude. Often, we tend to focus on what we lack or what's not working, becoming blind to the many blessings we share with our partners. Taking a moment each day to acknowledge and express gratitude for our spouse can create a positive shift in the relationship. It helps us appreciate their efforts, kindness, and love, fostering a deeper sense of connection and satisfaction. "Gratitude is like a magnet that attracts more blessings into your relationship. By focusing on the positives and expressing appreciation for your spouse, you create an environment of love and harmony." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Invest in Quality Time: Just as shoppers meticulously plan their Black Friday strategy to secure the best deals, couples need to invest time and effort into their marriage. Quality time is priceless. It allows couples to nurture their bond, create memories, and strengthen their emotional connection. Making a deliberate choice to spend uninterrupted, meaningful time together cultivates intimacy and reminds us why we fell in love in the first place. Whether it's going on regular date nights, engaging in shared hobbies, or simply having heartfelt conversations, dedicating time to your marriage will pay dividends that no material possession can match. "Investing time in your marriage is like investing in your future. The moments you share today will shape the foundation of tomorrow, which then becomes today. Presence counts more than presents." ~ Kristianne Wargo Marriage is not a fleeting Black Friday deal; it's a lifelong commitment. By prioritizing communication, embracing gratitude, and investing quality time, you can create a marriage that exceeds any special discount. Remember, the value of a loving and supportive partnership far surpasses the temporary fulfillment that a sale can bring. So, let's approach our marriages with the same passion, determination, and appreciation we reserve for Black Friday. The rewards will be immeasurable, and your marriage will thrive beyond your wildest dreams!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you applied that to marriage? Is your marriage better than a Black Friday Deal? People respond to Black Friday with the excitement, the rush, the determination to get that coveted item at an incredible price – it's palpable. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if you were to apply that same fervor and dedication to your marriage? Would it result in a better, more fulfilling relationship? If you put in as much time into your marriage as you do to shopping Black Friday deals, imagine how much farther you could be as a couple? Spend your money and your time wisely on what really matters...Your marriage! The K.I.S.S. ~ Spend your money and your time wisely! Let's delve into what a spouse can do to have a marriage that surpasses even the most sought-after Black Friday specials. 1. Prioritize Communication: In the midst of the chaos that a Black Friday sale brings, communication becomes crucial. Couples need to communicate effectively and clearly, just like bargain hunters strategize their shopping spree. Open lines of communication in a marriage create a strong foundation for understanding, empathy, and compromise. Taking the time to listen and express your thoughts and feelings can make a tremendous difference in resolving conflicts, improving intimacy, and strengthening the overall connection between spouses. "Communication is the lifeline of any relationship. It allows both partners to understand, support, and grow together." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Embrace Gratitude: In the frenzy of searching for the best deal, it's easy to lose sight of what we already have. Similarly, in marriage, it's essential to cultivate an attitude of gratitude. Often, we tend to focus on what we lack or what's not working, becoming blind to the many blessings we share with our partners. Taking a moment each day to acknowledge and express gratitude for our spouse can create a positive shift in the relationship. It helps us appreciate their efforts, kindness, and love, fostering a deeper sense of connection and satisfaction. "Gratitude is like a magnet that attracts more blessings into your relationship. By focusing on the positives and expressing appreciation for your spouse, you create an environment of love and harmony." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Invest in Quality Time: Just as shoppers meticulously plan their Black Friday strategy to secure the best deals, couples need to invest time and effort into their marriage. Quality time is priceless. It allows couples to nurture their bond, create memories, and strengthen their emotional connection. Making a deliberate choice to spend uninterrupted, meaningful time together cultivates intimacy and reminds us why we fell in love in the first place. Whether it's going on regular date nights, engaging in shared hobbies, or simply having heartfelt conversations, dedicating time to your marriage will pay dividends that no material possession can match. "Investing time in your marriage is like investing in your future. The moments you share today will shape the foundation of tomorrow, which then becomes today. Presence counts more than presents." ~ Kristianne Wargo Marriage is not a fleeting Black Friday deal; it's a lifelong commitment. By prioritizing communication, embracing gratitude, and investing quality time, you can create a marriage that exceeds any special discount. Remember, the value of a loving and supportive partnership far surpasses the temporary fulfillment that a sale can bring. So, let's approach our marriages with the same passion, determination, and appreciation we reserve for Black Friday. The rewards will be...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>692</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,mindset,presence,purpose,reconciliation,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/29433eaf3c613f1b69a99d0105932e2b.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3225 The Gravity of Gratitude</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3225-the-gravity-of-gratitude--57793349</link><description><![CDATA[Raising kids is beyond challenging. There are so many decisions we make every day for the betterment of our children. But very rarely do we truly understand the gravity of gratitude. All the decisions and sacrifices often leave us feeling worn out and overwhelmed. In the midst of the chaos, it's easy to forget the importance of gratitude.

What season are you in? If you want to appreciate where you are in the season you're in with your kiddos, hone in on gratitude. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hone in on gratitude! There is something special about gratitude. It truly softens your heart to see what is possible amidst what is challenging. 1. Pause and Reflect: In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's crucial to take a step back and reflect on the blessings of parenthood. While it's natural to focus on the challenges, reminding ourselves of the little moments that fill our hearts with joy can shift our perspective. "Take a few minutes each day to reflect on the unique qualities and milestones your children possess. Recognize the privilege you have been given to shape their lives." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Find Joy in the Journey: Parenting is a marathon, not a sprint. It's important to embrace the journey and find joy in every stage – from sleepless nights with newborns to the rebellious teenage years. Rejoice in the discoveries, laughter, and growth that occur along the way. "The moment you realize that each phase is temporary, you start appreciating the journey as a whole." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Practice Self-Compassion: Parenthood often demands much from us physically, emotionally, and mentally. It's important to prioritize self-care and show ourselves the same compassion we extend to our children. Acknowledge that it's okay to have challenging moments or feel overwhelmed. "Recognize the efforts you are putting in as a parent. Treat yourself with kindness and forgiveness when things don't go as planned. You are doing the most important job in the world." ~ Kristianne Wargo Gratitude has the power to transform the way we perceive parenthood, allowing us to appreciate the smallest of victories amidst the chaos. "Gratitude is like a magnifying glass; it enlarges what is truly precious and helps us navigate the challenging times with grace." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing gratitude, you can cultivate a joyful perspective that will benefit not only your children but yourself as well. Remember, being a parent is a privilege and an honor, and it is up to you to seize every opportunity to be grateful for the precious gift of your children. Let gratitude be your guiding light as you navigate the beautiful and challenging path of parenthood.   "Be present. Be incredible.

As the feast poses a challenge, indulge in what gives life. Celebrate Thanksgiving without sacrificing healthy living. The good news is that you don't have to abandon your wellness goals to enjoy the festivities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    By making a few mindful choices, you can have a satisfying and guilt-free Thanksgiving experience.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Make mindful choices and decisions that serve you well! 1. Prioritize Portion Control: When it comes to Thanksgiving, it's easy to get carried away with heaping servings on our plates. However, practicing portion control can be a game-changer in staying mindful of our calorie intake. Be aware of the size of the portions you consume, and opt for smaller plates to create an illusion of a full plate without overloading on food. Remember, it's about savoring the flavors, not devouring everything on the table.  "Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to enjoy delicious food without going overboard. Mindful eating and portion control are key to savoring the flavors and maintaining a healthy balance." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Focus on Healthy Swaps: Thanksgiving classics can be heavy in calories and unhealthy ingredients, but that doesn't mean you have to give them up entirely. Look for opportunities to make healthy swaps in your traditional recipes. For example, rather than using white flour, opt for whole wheat flour in your bread or stuffing. Choose leaner meats or explore plant-based alternatives as the centerpiece of your meal. By making conscious choices, you can create a spread that is both delicious and nourishing. 3. Don't Forget Your Greens: While indulging in turkey, cranberry sauce, and mashed potatoes, don't forget to include vegetables in your Thanksgiving feast. Green vegetables, such as Brussels sprouts, green beans, or kale, are packed with essential nutrients and fiber that can help balance out the heavier dishes. Make sure to include a vibrant, colorful salad as a side dish to add freshness and boost your vitamin intake. "Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate and enjoy a variety of flavors on your plate. Make sure to include a generous serving of nutrient-rich greens to ensure a well-rounded and balanced meal." ~ Kristianne Wargo By incorporating these three strategies into your Thanksgiving celebrations, you can enjoy the festivities guilt-free while still staying true to your healthy lifestyle. Remember, it's all about moderation, mindful choices, and finding a balance that works for you. A Thanksgiving celebration that emphasizes portion control, healthy swaps, and incorporating abundant greens is a great way to ring in the start of the holidays. By implementing these strategies, you can relish the holiday feast without straying from your wellness goals. As you gather with loved ones this season, remember that good health is the greatest gift you can give yourself. "There is nothing more satisfying than enjoying Thanksgiving while staying on track with your wellness goals. By being mindful about our choices and making decisions that serve you well, you can make this holiday both delicious and nourishing." - Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

As we enter Thanksgiving week, it's easy to get caught up in the flurry of holiday preparations and the looming end of the year. Our minds may wander to all the things we haven't accomplished or the goals left unfulfilled. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

The holiday season is a time of reflection and gratitude, and it's the perfect opportunity to shift our focus from what hasn't happened to the blessings that surround us. The twinkling lights and festive décor may bring a sense of joy and excitement, but it's essential to let go of what doesn't work and instead embrace the essence of what truly matters. Every journey begins with a purpose. Whether it's a personal goal, a career ambition, or a passion project, there was a driving force that led you to start in the first place. Maybe you wanted to make a difference in the world, pursue a dream that ignites your soul, or create something meaningful for yourself and others. Whatever it may be, reconnecting with that initial spark can reignite your determination and re-energize your path. The K.I.S.S. ~ Remember why you started! Sometimes, though, life throws curveballs, and things don't go as planned. We may find ourselves facing obstacles or feeling overwhelmed. But rather than dwelling on what hasn't been accomplished, shift your perspective to the progress you've made and the lessons learned along the way. Each setback is an opportunity to grow stronger and more resilient. Remembering why you started is not about dwelling on past mistakes or regrets. It's about acknowledging the blessings before you right now. It's about being present in the moment and appreciating the journey you're on, regardless of the outcome. It's about finding fulfillment and joy in the small victories and recognizing the impact you're making, even if it may not be on the grand scale you envisioned. As you gather around the Thanksgiving table this year, take a moment to express gratitude for the path you've chosen. Inhale the aroma of the turkey and stuffing, and let it remind you of your purpose. Take a bite of the pie, and let its sweetness fuel your commitment to your dreams. Embrace the warmth of family and friends, and let their love and support be the foundation on which you build your success.  "Gratitude is not just about saying 'thank you'; it's about recognizing the blessings in your life and using them as fuel to keep going and pursuing your dreams. Create your now!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, as the holiday season unfolds, remember your why. Reflect on your journey and appreciate the blessings before you. Let go of what doesn't serve you, and keep moving forward with gratitude in your heart. Each step you take is a testament to your determination, and every day is an opportunity to create a life filled with purpose and joy. This Thanksgiving, let your reasons for starting be the guiding light that leads you toward a future of greatness. Create your now!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't let what you haven't done diminish your gratitude. Explode with appreciation right where you are. The best is yet to come! In life's grand tapestry, it's easy to get caught up in the longing for greatness and obsess over what has yet to be accomplished. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, the key to unlocking the potential of your journey lies in acknowledging your present blessings while maintaining a forward-looking mindset. The willingness to embrace gratitude and explode with appreciation right where you are paves the way for remarkable growth and fulfillment. "The drive forward is more beneficial than looking backward when longing for greatness in your journey. Don't let what you haven't done diminish your gratitude. Explode with appreciation right where you are. The best is yet to come!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Explode with appreciation!   Here are 3 powerful ways to explode with appreciation and propel your journey forward: 1. Cultivate Mindfulness: In the hustle and bustle of daily life, we often forget to pause and appreciate the small miracles that surround us. By cultivating mindfulness, truly saying "I am thankful for", we deepen our awareness of the present moment and open our hearts to fully experience the beauty in our surroundings. Take a few moments each day to savor the taste of your morning coffee, bask in the warmth of the sun on your skin, or simply take a deep breath and cherish the serenity of the moment. By grounding yourself in the present, you unlock a wellspring of gratitude that fuels your journey. It is the first step to your greatness every day. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Practice Self-Reflection: Self-reflection is a powerful tool for personal growth and gratitude. Set aside dedicated time each week to reflect on your accomplishments, no matter how small they may seem. Celebrate the progress you've made, the challenges you've overcome, and the lessons you've learned along the way. Acknowledging and appreciating your personal growth creates a positive momentum that propels you forward with renewed vigor and determination. "When you see the beauty of your blessings, you bury the burdens that haunt you every day." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Express Acts of Kindness: Gratitude finds its greatest power when shared. It becomes sticky when you practice gratitude toward others. Take the time to express acts of kindness to those around you. Whether it's a heartfelt compliment, a handwritten note of appreciation, or a selfless gesture of help, these small acts have a profound impact not only on others but on our own sense of purpose. By bringing joy to others' lives, you create a ripple effect of gratitude and kindness that enhances your journey and ignites the flame of gratitude within you. As you embark on this journey, remember that greatness lies not only in the milestones ahead but also in your ability to appreciate the present. Embrace gratitude, explode with appreciation, and keep your eyes firmly fixed on the promising horizon. With a willing mind, body, and spirit, the best is yet to come!

Don't let what you haven't done diminish your gratitude. Explode with appreciation right where you are. The best is yet to come! In life's grand tapestry, it's easy to get caught up in the longing for greatness and obsess over what has yet to be accomplished. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, the key to unlocking the potential of your journey lies in acknowledging your present blessings while maintaining a forward-looking mindset. The willingness to embrace gratitude and explode with appreciation right where you are paves the way for remarkable growth and fulfillment. "The drive forward is more beneficial than looking backward when longing for greatness in your journey. Don't let what you haven't done diminish your gratitude. Explode with appreciation right where you are. The best is yet to come!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Explode with appreciation!   Here are 3 powerful ways to explode with appreciation and propel your journey forward: 1. Cultivate Mindfulness: In the hustle and bustle of daily life, we often forget to pause and appreciate the small miracles that surround us. By cultivating mindfulness, truly saying "I am thankful for", we deepen our awareness of the present moment and open our hearts to fully experience the beauty in our surroundings. Take a few moments each day to savor the taste of your morning coffee, bask in the warmth of the sun on your skin, or simply take a deep breath and cherish the serenity of the moment. By grounding yourself in the present, you unlock a wellspring of gratitude that fuels your journey. It is the first step to your greatness every day. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Practice Self-Reflection: Self-reflection is a powerful tool for personal growth and gratitude. Set aside dedicated time each week to reflect on your accomplishments, no matter how small they may seem. Celebrate the progress you've made, the challenges you've overcome, and the lessons you've learned along the way. Acknowledging and appreciating your personal growth creates a positive momentum that propels you forward with renewed vigor and determination. "When you see the beauty of your blessings, you bury the burdens that haunt you every day." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Express Acts of Kindness: Gratitude finds its greatest power when shared. It becomes sticky when you practice gratitude toward others. Take the time to express acts of kindness to those around you. Whether it's a heartfelt compliment, a handwritten note of appreciation, or a selfless gesture of help, these small acts have a profound impact not only on others but on our own sense of purpose. By bringing joy to others' lives, you create a ripple effect of gratitude and kindness that enhances your journey and ignites the flame of gratitude within you. As you embark on this journey, remember that greatness lies not only in the milestones ahead but also in your ability to appreciate the present. Embrace gratitude, explode with appreciation, and keep your eyes firmly fixed on the promising horizon. With a willing mind, body, and spirit, the best is yet to come! "You can't move forward while looking backward. Instead, turn your gratitude into rocket fuel and soar through life's greatest adventures. It's a party every day!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Do you find yourself craving inspiration and a renewed sense of purpose? Find strength in your weariness. Life's journey can often feel like an uphill battle, draining our spirits and leaving us exhausted.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." ~ Isaiah 40:31 Take comfort in these words, for they hold the promise of renewal and endurance. When you place your trust in something greater than yourself, a divine power that guides you through the darkest of times, you can find the resilience to keep moving forward. Remember, life is a journey that is meant to challenge and mold us. It is in your weariness that you grow, shedding old layers of yourself and emerging stronger and wiser. This weariness, though burdensome, is a testament to the depth of your experiences and a reminder of the incredible strength you possess within. The K.I.S.S. ~ Find strength in your weariness! "In the midst of weariness, lies the opportunity to discover your inner strength and rise above the challenges that come your way. In your weariness, lies an opportunity for growth and transformation." ~ Kristianne Wargo Embrace your weariness as a sign of your endurance, for it is in these moments that your character is truly tested. Allow yourself moments of rest and rejuvenation, but remember not to linger in the shadows of weariness for too long. Instead, use it as a springboard to propel yourself forward, knowing that you possess the strength to rise above any challenge that comes your way. Take a deep breath and believe in yourself. Just as the rising sun brings light to the darkest of nights, so, too, can your spirit overcome the weariness that plagues your soul. Hold onto your faith, drawing strength from the words of scripture and the support of others. Let go of doubt and fear, trusting in the divine plan that unfolds before you. Remember, the weariness you feel is but a temporary state. It is a reminder that you are human, capable of weathering storms and emerging stronger on the other side. Embrace the challenges that come your way, knowing that they are molding you into the person you are becoming. Keep your head held high, for you are a beacon of light in a world that sometimes feels overwhelmingly dark. Allow your weariness to become a catalyst for growth and renewal. Like the eagle soaring through the sky, rise above your circumstances and embrace the greatness that resides within you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, if you love someone, you should be willing to give up. Sacrifice is a blessing. In marriage, we often discover that the journey is not just about the good times and the joyous moments. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's also about learning the art of compromise, the act of selflessness, and the attitude of sacrifice. While some may view sacrifice as a burden, it can actually be a blessing that strengthens the bond between two individuals. So, how can spouses sacrifice for the sake of their marriage without losing themselves in the process? Learn to give and take. The K.I.S.S. ~ Learn to give and take! 1. Prioritize Personal Needs One of the most important aspects of a successful marriage is maintaining a sense of self. It's crucial for spouses to recognize their own needs and desires, even amidst the sacrifices they make. By prioritizing personal needs, couples can ensure that they continue to grow individually and bring their best selves into the relationship. This may mean setting aside time for hobbies, self-care activities, or pursuing personal goals. When individuals are fulfilled on a personal level, they can offer more to their partner and the relationship as a whole. 2. Effective Communication Sacrifices in a marriage should never be made in silence. Honest and open communication is key to ensuring that both partners understand each other's needs and concerns. By openly discussing what sacrifices are necessary for the betterment of the relationship, couples can find solutions that work for both parties. It's crucial to express one's feelings, desires, and concerns without fear of judgment or rejection. This way, sacrifices can be made willingly, and both partners will feel valued and heard. 3. Uncover Mutual Support and Compromise A marriage is ultimately a partnership built on love, trust, and understanding. It's important for spouses to support each other's dreams, goals, and aspirations, even if they require sacrifices. By becoming each other's cheerleaders and allies, couples can navigate the challenges of sacrifice more effectively. Understanding that compromise is necessary for a healthy relationship; both partners can work together to find common ground and make sacrifices that benefit the marriage as a whole. This way, sacrifices are not seen as one-sided burdens but as joint efforts to build a stronger and more fulfilling partnership. "In the attitude of sacrifice, there is a beautiful dance between love and self. The key is finding the balance that nourishes both." ~ Kristianne Wargo Sacrifice in a marriage is not a sign of weakness or burden, but rather a testament to the love that two individuals share for each other. By prioritizing personal needs, practicing effective communication, and fostering mutual support and compromise, spouses can make sacrifices without losing themselves in the process. It is this delicate balance that allows couples to grow individually while strengthening the bond of their marriage. Remember, sacrifice is a blessing.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's important for spouses to support each other's dreams, goals, and aspirations, even if they require sacrifices. By becoming each other's cheerleaders and allies, couples can navigate the challenges of sacrifice more effectively. Understanding that compromise is necessary for a healthy relationship; both partners can work together to find common ground and make sacrifices that benefit the marriage as a whole. This way, sacrifices are not seen as one-sided burdens but as joint efforts to build a stronger and more fulfilling partnership. "In the attitude of sacrifice, there is a beautiful dance between love and self. The key is finding the balance that nourishes both." ~ Kristianne Wargo Sacrifice in a marriage is not a sign of weakness or burden, but rather a testament to the love that two individuals share for each other. By prioritizing personal needs, practicing effective communication, and fostering mutual support and compromise, spouses can make sacrifices without losing themselves in the process. It is this delicate balance that allows couples to grow individually while strengthening the bond of their marriage. Remember, sacrifice is a blessing.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Dwelling on self-doubt prevents you from fully embracing your role and inhibiting your ability to trust your instincts. You are doing amazing at parenting. Remember, there is no manual because each child is so unique. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    The good news is that there are ways to boost your confidence and feel more assured as a parent.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Trust your instincts! 1. Reflect on Your Child's Unique Qualities You are the expert when it comes to your child. Take the time to observe and appreciate their unique qualities and strengths. Each child has their own personality, preferences, and needs. Accept and celebrate these differences rather than comparing your child to others. Recognize that your intuition is deeply connected to your understanding of your child’s individuality. Embrace the fact that you know your child better than anyone else, and trust that your insights will guide you in making the best decisions for their growth and development. 2. Seek Support from Trusted Sources While trusting your instincts is crucial, it's also essential to seek guidance and support from trusted sources. Surround yourself with a network of individuals who provide encouragement, sound advice, and a non-judgmental ear. This network can include fellow parents, friends, or professionals such as pediatricians or therapists. Engaging in conversations and seeking input from others who share similar experiences can help validate your own instincts. Remember, parenting is a collective effort, and leaning on these trusted sources can provide you with the confidence boost you need to trust yourself more fully. 3. Practice Self-Care and Prioritize Your Well-being As a parent, it's easy to prioritize your child's needs above your own. However, neglecting your own well-being can lead to increased self-doubt and hesitation in parenting decisions. Make sure to carve out time for self-care, whether it be engaging in hobbies, exercise, or simply enjoying moments of solitude. Nurturing your own physical, mental, and emotional health is crucial in bolstering your confidence as a parent. When you prioritize self-care, you reinforce your belief in yourself and your instincts, enabling you to make decisions more confidently. Remember, parenting is an ongoing journey of learning and growth. There will be moments of uncertainty, and that’s perfectly normal. By focusing on these three steps - reflecting on your child’s unique qualities, seeking support from trusted sources, and prioritizing self-care - you can cultivate the belief in yourself that is essential in trusting your instincts as a parent. Embrace your intuition, stay true to your values, and let your parenting journey be guided by the love and care you have for your child. Trust yourself—you've already proven to be an amazing parent.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Think about it - the perfect cup of coffee, the way the sunlight pours through your window in the morning, the warmth of a hug from a loved one. These are the small moments that make life rich and meaningful. When it comes to achieving your goals, it's easy to get overwhelmed by the enormity of the task at hand. Whether it's starting a new business, losing weight, or writing a book, we often focus solely on the end result. But what if you shifted your attention to the details? What if you embraced every step of the journey and found joy in the small victories along the way? Consider a marathon runner. Sure, crossing the finish line is an incredible achievement, but it's the daily commitment to training, the discipline to stick to a schedule, and the mental fortitude to push through each mile that truly defines their success. It's in the details of their training that they become stronger, faster, and more resilient. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dazzle your list with details! Similarly, in our own lives, finding joy in the journey is how we create a life worth living. It's the passion and enthusiasm you bring to your work, the kindness and love you extend to others, and the attention to detail you pour into everything you do.

"Notice the brushstrokes in your artwork, the way the words flow on the page, and the way your body moves as you dance. Embrace the texture of the fabrics you work with, the sounds of laughter, and the tastes and smells that delight your senses. Create your now!" ~ Kristianne Wargo By paying attention to the details, you gain a deeper appreciation for life and the world around you. You become more present, more mindful, and more connected. You begin to realize that success isn't just about achieving the big goals, but about finding purpose and fulfillment in the smallest of moments. So, challenge yourself to dazzle your list with details. Infuse your tasks with passion, creativity, and love. Celebrate the beauty of the journey, one intricately woven detail at a time. Because when you savor the details, you bring magic to everything you do, and that is where true success lies.

But if you can break free from these cycles, that is where you will discover and achieve stability. However, merely conquering these challenges is really not the end goal.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Take control of your health struggles and harness their potential as catalysts for positive change. Become the master of your issues and witness how they can become your ultimate assets in the pursuit of a vibrant and nourished life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Master what shakes you! 1. Embrace Self-Awareness To master what shakes you, it is crucial to develop a deep level of self-awareness. This means getting to know yourself inside out and understanding your triggers, strengths, and weaknesses. By identifying the specific factors that shake your healthy living routine, you can develop strategies to counteract them. For instance, if stress often leads you to emotional eating, take note of this pattern and explore alternative coping mechanisms such as engaging in exercise or practicing mindfulness techniques. By recognizing and addressing these patterns, you can regain control over your actions and maintain a healthy lifestyle. 2. Cultivate Resilience Life is full of ups and downs, and conquering what shakes you requires resilience. Cultivating resilience means developing the ability to bounce back from setbacks and adapt to new circumstances. When it comes to healthy living, this resilience is vital for overcoming obstacles that may hinder your progress. For example, if your hectic work schedule leaves little time for exercise, instead of succumbing to defeat, find creative ways to incorporate physical activity into your day. This could involve taking short walks during breaks or utilizing home workout routines. By adapting to challenges and staying committed to your healthy lifestyle, you can master what shakes you and maintain your well-being. 3. Foster a Supportive Community Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who share your goals and values can greatly enhance your journey towards mastering what shakes you. Building a supportive community provides encouragement, accountability, and a sense of belonging. This can be especially helpful when faced with challenges or temptations that may jeopardize your progress. Seek out forums or local groups that focus on healthy living, connect with individuals who inspire you, and participate in activities that align with your wellness goals. By fostering a supportive community, you can tap into collective knowledge, share experiences, and gain the motivation needed to overcome what shakes you in your healthy living journey. Remember, mastering what shakes you is not about avoiding challenges, but rather embracing them as opportunities for growth. By developing self-awareness, cultivating resilience, and fostering a supportive community, you can transform these struggles into stepping stones towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.

But if you can break free from these cycles, that is where you will discover and achieve stability. However, merely conquering these challenges is really not the end goal.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Take control of your health struggles and harness their potential as catalysts for positive change. Become the master of your issues and witness how they can become your ultimate assets in the pursuit of a vibrant and nourished life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Master what shakes you! 1. Embrace Self-Awareness To master what shakes you, it is crucial to develop a deep level of self-awareness. This means getting to know yourself inside out and understanding your triggers, strengths, and weaknesses. By identifying the specific factors that shake your healthy living routine, you can develop strategies to counteract them. For instance, if stress often leads you to emotional eating, take note of this pattern and explore alternative coping mechanisms such as engaging in exercise or practicing mindfulness techniques. By recognizing and addressing these patterns, you can regain control over your actions and maintain a healthy lifestyle. 2. Cultivate Resilience Life is full of ups and downs, and conquering what shakes you requires resilience. Cultivating resilience means developing the ability to bounce back from setbacks and adapt to new circumstances. When it comes to healthy living, this resilience is vital for overcoming obstacles that may hinder your progress. For example, if your hectic work schedule leaves little time for exercise, instead of succumbing to defeat, find creative ways to incorporate physical activity into your day. This could involve taking short walks during breaks or utilizing home workout routines. By adapting to challenges and staying committed to your healthy lifestyle, you can master what shakes you and maintain your well-being. 3. Foster a Supportive Community Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who share your goals and values can greatly enhance your journey towards mastering what shakes you. Building a supportive community provides encouragement, accountability, and a sense of belonging. This can be especially helpful when faced with challenges or temptations that may jeopardize your progress. Seek out forums or local groups that focus on healthy living, connect with individuals who inspire you, and participate in activities that align with your wellness goals. By fostering a supportive community, you can tap into collective knowledge, share experiences, and gain the motivation needed to overcome what shakes you in your healthy living journey. Remember, mastering what shakes you is not about avoiding challenges, but rather embracing them as opportunities for growth. By developing self-awareness, cultivating resilience, and fostering a supportive community, you can transform these struggles into stepping stones towards a more balanced and fulfilling life. "Embrace the power within you to master what shakes you, and let it fuel your transformation." - Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

We stick to what we know, what feels safe and secure. Ditch the comfort and bust the barriers. Do you ever feel like you're constantly met with obstacles that hold you back from reaching your full potential? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Whether it's the comfort zone that keeps you stagnant, fear that paralyzes you, or procrastination that hinders your progress, it's time to break free from these barriers. "Look beyond what you expect and take a chance on what you don't know. It's time to get uncomfortable in the water and swim to greater depths." ~ Kristianne Wargo Now while the trap might provide temporary comfort, it also restricts your growth and limits your possibilities. It's time to break free from the comfort zone and venture into uncharted territory. "The real growth lies beyond the boundaries you set for  yourself." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's a profound truth that challenges you to step outside your comfort zone and embrace the unknown. When you push past your limitations, you open yourself up to new experiences, opportunities, and personal growth. The K.I.S.S. ~ Bust the barriers! Fear is another formidable barrier that holds us back. It's a natural instinct to feel fearful of the unknown. However, if you constantly allow fear to control your actions, you will never uncover your true potential. Take a moment to reflect on your fears. What is the worst that could happen if you face them head-on? Often, the fear you build up in your mind is far greater than the reality. By confronting your fears, you empower yourself to overcome the barriers that stand in your way. Procrastination, too, is an invisible wall we often come up against. You tell yourself we'll start tomorrow, that there's always more time. But deep down, you know that tomorrow never truly comes. Taking that first step is the key to breaking through the procrastination barrier. Take A.I.M. now, however small it may be, and you'll find that momentum builds, propelling you forward. Soon enough, you'll knock down the walls of procrastination and embrace productivity. So, how can we bust these barriers and unlock our true potential? It starts with a shift in mindset. Embrace the uncomfortable and be open to new experiences. Challenge your beliefs and expectations, and be willing to embrace the unfamiliar. Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who inspire and motivate you. Seek out mentors or role models who have overcome similar barriers and learn from their experiences. Most importantly, believe in yourself and your ability to break free from the chains that bind you. Life is too short to let barriers hold you back. Break free from your comfort zone, conquer your fears, and banish procrastination. Remember, the real growth lies beyond the boundaries you set for yourself. Embrace the unknown, challenge your limitations, and soar to new heights. Take that leap of faith and discover the greatness that lies within you. "Don't let barriers control your every day. Bust through them and create your now. It's time to bust the barriers and embrace the extraordinary possibilities that await you." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Whether rooted in fear or a lack of self-belief, move from what-if to now. This mentality holds you back from experiencing the present and embracing the life God has designed for you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    "How can you live the life God designed specifically for you if you are always talking about what-if?" ~ Kristianne Wargo Living in a perpetual state of a "what-if" mindset hinders your ability to see yourself as successful. It keeps you constantly looking in the rearview mirror, fixated on missed opportunities or past failures. The key to unlocking your potential and creating a fulfilling life lies in transitioning from 'what-if' to 'now.' Hence, create your now! The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! But just like anything else, you have to take A.I.M.! Action ignites movitation. Here are three actionable steps you can take to make this transformation: 1. Embrace Self-Awareness One essential step in releasing the grip of 'what-if' thinking is to cultivate self-awareness. Reflect on what drives your thoughts, this mindset, and what fears or doubts are holding you back. What are you really afraid of? Acknowledging these limitations equips you to confront them head-on, allowing you to take control of your thoughts and redirect them toward the present. 2. Practice Gratitude Shifting your focus from 'what-if' to 'what is' can be challenging, but practicing gratitude can help rewire your mindset. What blessings are before you? Make a habit of recognizing and appreciating the blessings in your life, no matter how small they may seem. By cultivating gratitude, you train your mind to be present and open to the opportunities that exist right now. 3. Set Clear Goals and Take A.I.M. To create your 'now,' it's essential to set clear goals and take intentional action. Define what you want to achieve and break it down into actionable steps. What is possible? By prioritizing these objectives and committing to taking consistent action, you shift your energy towards building the life you desire, making 'what-if' scenarios lose their grip on your thoughts, your heart; your mindset. "At no point will you see yourself as successful if you are always living in the 'what if.' So, stop looking back; use the rearview mirror as a reminder that you’ve come so far to create your now." ~ Kristianne Wargo Ultimately, living a life of purpose requires releasing the shackles of 'what-if' thinking and embracing the present moment. By cultivating self-awareness, practicing gratitude, and taking intentional action toward your goals, you create the space to experience the life that God has designed specifically for you. So, let go of the 'what ifs' and open yourself up to the endless possibilities, and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

By prioritizing these objectives and committing to taking consistent action, you shift your energy towards building the life you desire, making 'what-if' scenarios lose their grip on your thoughts, your heart; your mindset. "At no point will you see yourself as successful if you are always living in the 'what if.' So, stop looking back; use the rearview mirror as a reminder that you’ve come so far to create your now." ~ Kristianne Wargo Ultimately, living a life of purpose requires releasing the shackles of 'what-if' thinking and embracing the present moment. By cultivating self-awareness, practicing gratitude, and taking intentional action toward your goals, you create the space to experience the life that God has designed specifically for you. So, let go of the 'what ifs' and open yourself up to the endless possibilities, and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Recognizing the importance of skill development and God's involvement, you can find wisdom and guidance in the Bible. First off, it's important to understand that skill is not simply a product of human effort; it is a gift from God. In Exodus 31:3, we read about Bezalel, a skilled craftsman who was divinely appointed and filled with the Spirit of God to be able to work with skill in various crafts. This highlights the biblical understanding that skill is not solely a result of human effort, but is a divine gift from God Himself. Therefore, by seeking God's guidance and relying on His grace, you can tap into the source of all skill. The K.I.S.S. ~ Skill will bring success! Now, the process of gaining skill requires consistent effort, dedication, and a desire to continually learn. Proverbs 2:2-6 speaks of the importance of diligently seeking wisdom, understanding, and knowledge. By immersing yourself in the study of God's Word and seeking His guidance through prayer, you open yourself up to the possibility of acquiring skill in various areas of your life. Furthermore, Scripture emphasizes the role of God as our ultimate source of strength. Philippians 4:13 13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. You are to rely on God's power, not rest in your own strength. So, in situations where more strength is needed, you can trust in God's provision and find comfort in the knowledge that He will equip you for success. God's strength becomes the foundation upon which your skill is built. By surrendering your life to God and submitting your desires and plans to His will, you place yourself in a position to receive His guidance, wisdom, and strength. Proverbs 3:5-6 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.<br /> When you acknowledge God in all our ways, He will make our paths straight, leading you towards skillful living and ultimately, success. Remember that skillfulness, in the Biblical context, extends beyond worldly success and achievements. It includes living a life of integrity, using your skills to serve others, and glorifying God through your actions. Colossians 3:23-24 "23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." When you strive to develop your skills with a heart oriented towards honoring God, success becomes more about the impact you have on others and fulfilling your higher purpose, your calling. Skill is a gift from God, and through His guidance and strength, you are able to develop and enhance your abilities. By diligently seeking wisdom, relying on God's strength, and aligning your life with His will, you can experience skillful living that leads to lasting success, not only in the worldly sense but also in your spiritual journey. “If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed, but skill will bring success.“ Ecclesiastes 10:10   "Be present.

What does it mean to love your spouse? It's not about striving for a picture-perfect relationship; rather, it's about practicing love daily through your actions and words. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Are you one who does that for your spouse? The K.I.S.S. ~ Practice love every day! What are some tangible ways to practice love towards your spouse, while keeping their needs and well-being in mind? 1. Express gratitude and appreciation Sometimes, we tend to overlook the little things that make our spouse unique and special. Take a moment each day to express your gratitude and appreciation for who they are and what they bring to the relationship. It could be as simple as leaving them a heartfelt note or verbally acknowledging their efforts. For example, you could say, "Thank you for always supporting my dreams and believing in me. Your unwavering belief in me means the world." 2. Prioritize quality time Amidst the daily hustle and bustle, it's crucial to carve out quality time for your spouse. Make a conscious effort to create opportunities for bonding and connection. It could be a regular date night where you explore new places or activities together, or simply turning off all distractions and having a heartfelt conversation. Show them that they are a priority in your life. For instance, surprise your spouse with a planned outing or set aside an evening to cook their favorite meal together. 3. Practice active listening Communication is key in any relationship, and it goes beyond just talking. Practice active listening – genuinely hearing and understanding your spouse's thoughts, feelings, and concerns. This means giving them your undivided attention, maintaining eye contact, and validating their emotions. Show interest by asking open-ended questions and providing a safe space for them to share. For example, when your spouse expresses a worry, respond with empathy and say, "I understand how you feel. Let's work through this together." Remember, love is not about performance or perfection. It's about the consistent effort to make your spouse feel valued, understood, and cherished. As Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Love is not about performance to be perfect, but rather about the practice of loving." By implementing these three practices into your daily life, you will lay a strong foundation for a fulfilling and lasting marriage. Embrace the art of practicing love, and watch your relationship blossom into something truly beautiful.   "Be present. Be incredible.

If we as parents learn to work with them and stay very consistent in our actions, that's how you teach your child life skills. Have you ever found yourself struggling to get your child to do something that you believe will have a profound impact on their life? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Too many times, we can forcibly strong-arm our children, but that's where the battles brew. We often have a vision of what we want our children to achieve, but getting them on board is another battle. And it's in those moments where we question the worth of our effort. However, instead of trying to force our children into doing something that, at the time, they don't understand why we are asking them to do it, there is a better way to approach training them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Work with your child, not against them! Because by working with your child and staying consistent in your actions, you can effectively guide them towards building life skills while nurturing their growth. 1. Establish a Supportive Environment Creating a supportive environment is essential for your child's growth and development. Set aside a specific area where they can work on their goals, and equip it with the necessary tools and resources. For example, if you want your child to excel in their academics, provide them with a dedicated study space, comfortable seating, and adequate lighting. Make sure this space is free from distractions and encourage them to personalize it to make it truly their own. By providing them with a dedicated space, you are sending a message that their goals and aspirations are important and that you are there to support them every step of the way. 2. Set Clear Expectations One of the key factors in working with your child toward achieving their goals is setting clear expectations. Clearly communicate the desired outcome and explain why it is important. Help them understand the benefits and how the skills or knowledge they gain will positively impact their future. Make sure the expectations are realistic and age-appropriate, breaking down the goal into smaller achievable milestones. This not only gives your child a sense of direction but also provides them with a roadmap to follow. By setting clear expectations, your child will gain clarity on what is expected of them and will feel more motivated to work towards achieving those goals. 3. Encourage Independence and Ownership While it is important to provide guidance and support, it is equally crucial to foster independence and ownership in your children. Encourage them to take ownership of their goals by involving them in the planning process. Allow them to make decisions and let them take the lead in setting targets and timelines. This gives them a sense of responsibility and instills confidence in their abilities. Encourage them to reflect on their progress and celebrate their achievements, no matter how small. By giving your child the autonomy to take charge of their own journey, you are empowering them to become self-motivated learners. By working with your child and staying consistent in your actions, you have the power to guide them towards success. Creating a supportive environment, setting clear expectations, and encouraging independence and ownership are key strategies that can make a significant impact on their journey.

If we as parents learn to work with them and stay very consistent in our actions, that's how you teach your child life skills. Have you ever found yourself struggling to get your child to do something that you believe will have a profound impact on their life? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Too many times, we can forcibly strong-arm our children, but that's where the battles brew. We often have a vision of what we want our children to achieve, but getting them on board is another battle. And it's in those moments where we question the worth of our effort. However, instead of trying to force our children into doing something that, at the time, they don't understand why we are asking them to do it, there is a better way to approach training them. The K.I.S.S. ~ Work with your child, not against them! Because by working with your child and staying consistent in your actions, you can effectively guide them towards building life skills while nurturing their growth. 1. Establish a Supportive Environment Creating a supportive environment is essential for your child's growth and development. Set aside a specific area where they can work on their goals, and equip it with the necessary tools and resources. For example, if you want your child to excel in their academics, provide them with a dedicated study space, comfortable seating, and adequate lighting. Make sure this space is free from distractions and encourage them to personalize it to make it truly their own. By providing them with a dedicated space, you are sending a message that their goals and aspirations are important and that you are there to support them every step of the way. 2. Set Clear Expectations One of the key factors in working with your child toward achieving their goals is setting clear expectations. Clearly communicate the desired outcome and explain why it is important. Help them understand the benefits and how the skills or knowledge they gain will positively impact their future. Make sure the expectations are realistic and age-appropriate, breaking down the goal into smaller achievable milestones. This not only gives your child a sense of direction but also provides them with a roadmap to follow. By setting clear expectations, your child will gain clarity on what is expected of them and will feel more motivated to work towards achieving those goals. 3. Encourage Independence and Ownership While it is important to provide guidance and support, it is equally crucial to foster independence and ownership in your children. Encourage them to take ownership of their goals by involving them in the planning process. Allow them to make decisions and let them take the lead in setting targets and timelines. This gives them a sense of responsibility and instills confidence in their abilities. Encourage them to reflect on their progress and celebrate their achievements, no matter how small. By giving your child the autonomy to take charge of their own journey, you are empowering them to become self-motivated learners. By working with your child and staying consistent in your actions, you have the power to guide them towards success. Creating a supportive environment, setting clear expectations, and encouraging independence and ownership are key strategies that can make a significant impact on their journey. Remember, patience and consistency are crucial throughout this process. Emphasize the importance of progress over perfection, and celebrate even the smallest achievements along the way. Together, you and your child can lay a strong foundation for a successful future.   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, with the proper precautions, it is possible to reduce the risk of breast cancer. Incorporating healthy lifestyle habits can play a crucial role in maintaining breast health. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Research has shown that certain lifestyle factors can significantly lower the risk of breast cancer. Let's talk about three actionable steps you can take toward prevention. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prevention is key!   One of the obvious things that must be done is your annual mammogram. Have you had yours yet? Because it's not obvious unless you do it. And for those who are wondering if it hurts, the answer is no. It can be a little uncomfortable. But for the most part, it's a slight discomfort to save your life. If you think of it that way, you can endure it for a few minutes. So, let's look at some preventative ways. 1. Engage in regular physical activity: Regular exercise has been found to have a protective effect against breast cancer. According to a study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, women who engaged in moderate to vigorous physical activity for at least 30 minutes a day had a lower risk of developing breast cancer compared to those who were less physically active. Physical activity not only helps in weight management but also reduces estrogen levels in the body, which can contribute to a reduced risk of breast cancer. 2. Maintain a healthy weight: Obesity has been linked with an increased risk of breast cancer, especially after menopause. Excess body weight can lead to increased estrogen production, which can fuel the growth of breast cells and potentially lead to cancer. By maintaining a healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise, individuals can reduce their risk of breast cancer. The American Cancer Society recommends following a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and limiting the intake of processed foods and sugary drinks. 3. Limit alcohol consumption: Numerous studies have shown that alcohol consumption is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, even small amounts of alcohol can increase the risk. It is recommended to limit alcohol consumption to no more than one drink per day for women. By reducing alcohol intake, individuals can reduce their exposure to a known risk factor for breast cancer. Adopting a healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce the risk of developing breast cancer. Engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and limiting alcohol consumption, and get your annual mammogram. These are simple yet effective steps that you can take to protect yourself.  "Train for life.

"In the midst of the rush and chaos, find solace in the knowledge that the best is yet to come." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing this mindset, you can elevate your perspective and find inspiration even in the most challenging moments.

Instead of succumbing to the pressure, shift your focus to the progress you are making and the accomplishments that lie just ahead. In this journey called life, it's important to set your own pace. Allow yourself to take breaks, to rest, and to recharge. By nurturing your mind, body, and spirit, you pave the way for a more harmonious every day. This self-care is not a luxury; it's a necessity that enables you to be your best self as you move forward. Rather than letting the to-do list consume you, learn to prioritize.

Different seasons bring new beginnings. Each season holds its own unique charm, with fresh opportunities and possibilities just waiting to be explored. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Whether it's the blossoming of flowers in spring, the warmth of summer days, the crispness of autumn, or the serenity of winter, each season invites us to be present and fully embrace the magic it offers.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the magic of the season! 1. Cultivate a Mindset of Gratitude Regardless of the season, gratitude is key to finding joy and purpose in the present. Take a moment to reflect on the beauty and blessings that surround you during this season. Whether it's the vibrant colors of fall foliage or the rejuvenation of spring, appreciating the wonders of nature helps shift your mindset to one of abundance. "Presence is about recognizing the blessings in each season and being open to the lessons they bring." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Engage in Seasonal Activities What better way to fully immerse yourself in the season than by participating in activities that are unique to it? Make a list of activities that align with the season you're in. For instance, during the spring, you could go for hikes in blooming gardens, have picnics in the park, or start a new hobby like gardening. For the Fall, think of pumpkin patches and cool walks through the fallen leaves. Engaging in these activities not only connects you with the season but also opens opportunities for new experiences and connections. 3. Embrace Intentionality and Presence Being present in the season means consciously creating moments of stillness and reflection. Carve out time to disconnect from the busyness of life and fully immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and sensations of the season. Whether it's taking a leisurely walk in a snow-covered park during winter or sitting by the beach, feeling the warmth of the summer sun, the act of intentionally engaging with the season fosters a deeper appreciation for the here and now. Each season offers us a chance to grow, learn, and start anew. By cultivating a mindset of gratitude, engaging in seasonal activities, and embracing intentionality and presence, we open ourselves up to the magic and potential that each new season brings. As Kristianne Wargo beautifully sums it up, "It's not just about waiting for what's to come but anticipating with joy the newness that each season unfolds." So, as the seasons change, let us remember to be fully present, appreciating the gifts that each one brings, and eagerly anticipating the new beginnings that lie ahead.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Often, we find ourselves surrounded by darkness - the darkness of sin, negativity, and deception. It can be easy to lose sight of what is right and succumb to the pressures and temptations around us. However, Jesus encourages us to stand firm in the truth, for it is the truth that sets us free and allows us to be a beacon of light in a world that desperately needs it. So, how can you live the life in the sight of God? As you know, you want to commit first to seeking and living by the truth. This means aligning our thoughts, actions, and intentions with what is morally right and just. It means being honest with yourself and others, even when it may be uncomfortable or inconvenient. It means making choices that honor God and reflect His love and grace. The K.I.S.S. ~ In the sight of God! Being the light also means being a positive influence on those around us. Your words and actions have the power to either uplift or tear down others. When you choose to speak words of encouragement, show acts of kindness, and extend forgiveness, you are spreading the light of love and compassion to those who need it most. In a world filled with darkness, being the light also means standing up for what is right and just. It means advocating for those who are oppressed, disadvantaged, or marginalized. It means using your voice to speak out against injustice and create positive change in your communities. By taking a stand for righteousness and being a voice for the voiceless, you can illuminate the darkness and bring hope to those who need it most. Remember that being the light does not mean being perfect. We are all flawed and capable of making mistakes. Yet, it is through our willingness to acknowledge our shortcomings and seek forgiveness that we can truly shine. When we humbly admit our failures and turn to God for guidance, he can transform our lives and use us as vessels of His light and love. In the sight of God! So, are you being the light unto the world? Take a moment to reflect on your thoughts, words, and actions. Are they in alignment with the truth? Are they bringing hope, love, and grace to those around you? In this moment, decide to be intentional about being the light, for through you, God's love can shine brightly in this world.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Often, we find ourselves surrounded by darkness - the darkness of sin, negativity, and deception. It can be easy to lose sight of what is right and succumb to the pressures and temptations around us. However, Jesus encourages us to stand firm in the truth, for it is the truth that sets us free and allows us to be a beacon of light in a world that desperately needs it. So, how can you live the life in the sight of God? As you know, you want to commit first to seeking and living by the truth. This means aligning our thoughts, actions, and intentions with what is morally right and just. It means being honest with yourself and others, even when it may be uncomfortable or inconvenient. It means making choices that honor God and reflect His love and grace. The K.I.S.S. ~ In the sight of God! Being the light also means being a positive influence on those around us. Your words and actions have the power to either uplift or tear down others. When you choose to speak words of encouragement, show acts of kindness, and extend forgiveness, you are spreading the light of love and compassion to those who need it most. In a world filled with darkness, being the light also means standing up for what is right and just. It means advocating for those who are oppressed, disadvantaged, or marginalized. It means using your voice to speak out against injustice and create positive change in your communities. By taking a stand for righteousness and being a voice for the voiceless, you can illuminate the darkness and bring hope to those who need it most. Remember that being the light does not mean being perfect. We are all flawed and capable of making mistakes. Yet, it is through our willingness to acknowledge our shortcomings and seek forgiveness that we can truly shine. When we humbly admit our failures and turn to God for guidance, he can transform our lives and use us as vessels of His light and love. In the sight of God! So, are you being the light unto the world? Take a moment to reflect on your thoughts, words, and actions. Are they in alignment with the truth? Are they bringing hope, love, and grace to those around you? In this moment, decide to be intentional about being the light, for through you, God's love can shine brightly in this world.

However, we tend to overlook the most powerful tool: bond through prayer. We seek advice from relationship experts, read countless books, and attend seminars and workshops, all in the hopes of uncovering the secret to a successful marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, in the midst of our search for answers, we tend to overlook the simplest and yet most powerful tool available to us: prayer. Prayer has the ability to strengthen the bond between two spouses and nurture a deeper sense of connection and intimacy. It is the cornerstone of spiritual unity, allowing couples to invite God's presence and guidance into their marriage. Let's explore ways to encourage praying together as a couple. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pray together! But in reality, it's a challenge just getting to spend time together.  1. Create Sacred Moments Just as physical intimacy requires a space where both partners can connect intimately, so does spiritual intimacy necessitate a dedicated time and place to come together in prayer. Establishing a sacred moment each day, whether it's in the morning, evening, or before bedtime, sets the stage for a prayerful connection. Mark this time on your shared calendar and treat it with the same importance you would give to any other commitment. Biblical Reference: "For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them" (Matthew 18:20). By intentionally setting aside time for prayer, couples invite the presence of God into their marriage, strengthening their connection and fostering a deeper understanding of one another. 2. Create a Prayer Routine Building a prayer routine helps couples establish a habit of consistent prayer, ensuring that the act becomes an essential part of their daily lives. Begin this journey by discussing your individual prayer needs and concerns with each other. Understand what personal needs, challenges, or dreams you both have and how you can support one another through prayer. Then, create a list of prayer points together and set aside time to bring these concerns before God as a united front. Biblical Reference: "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer" (Romans 12:12). Embracing a regular prayer routine encourages couples to find joy in the journey, remain steadfast in times of trouble, and demonstrate their faithfulness to one another and to God. 3. Pray for One Another While sharing prayer concerns as a couple is valuable, it is equally important to pray specifically for each other. Take turns praying for your spouse's individual hopes, dreams, and challenges. Ask God to guide and protect your partner, interceding on their behalf for strength, wisdom, and grace. By lifting one another up in prayer, you demonstrate your love and commitment, and allow God to work in and through your marriage. Biblical Reference: "Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing" (1 Thessalonians 5:11). Praying for one another not only strengthens the bond between spouses but also serves as an encouragement and reminder of the love and support you have for each other in your shared journey. Please note...prayer should never be underestimated or overlooked. Prayer has the power to transform marriages, providing a foundation of spiritual intimacy and unity that cannot be achieved through any other means. Through creating sacred moments, establishing a prayer routine, and praying for one another, you can cultivate a vibrant and enduring relationship built on faith. Let's pause and ask yourself: "Do you believe in the power of prayer for your marriage?" Let the answer guide you toward an even more meaningful and connected journey together as you embrace the transformative power of prayer within your marital bond.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Embrace your unique parenting style while daring to be different. As parents, we often find ourselves striving for approval from others, conforming to societal norms, and silently questioning our choices. But deep down, we know that what's truly best for our children may not always align with what everyone else is doing. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Have you ever given much thought to your parenting style? Most parents don't. They end up expecting, and then the next thing you know, you're disciplining, going to soccer practice, and volunteering at senior prom. Yes, life does not slow down. So take a front seat in your parenting journey and dare to be different. The K.I.S.S. ~ Dare to be different! 1. Trust Your Parenting Instincts Parenting is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and there's no manual that suits every child. A way to dare to be different is by trusting your intuition and embracing your parental instincts. Instead of constantly seeking validation or comparing yourself to other parents, listen to your inner voice and believe in your ability to make choices that resonate with your child's individual needs and values. Remember, you are their parent, and nobody knows your child like you do. 2. Break Free from Expectations Society often imposes numerous expectations on parents, from comparing milestones to parenting philosophies. Dare to be different by breaking free from these unrealistic expectations and embracing what works best for your family. Create your own set of values, principles, and goals that reflect your family's unique dynamics and individuality. By doing so, you will cultivate an environment where your children can thrive authentically, free from the weight of societal pressures. 3. Embrace Unconventional Approaches Daring to be different also involves exploring alternative and unconventional approaches to parenting. Embrace and integrate progressive ideas and methodologies that resonate with you and your child's personality. Whether it's homeschooling, co-parenting, or adopting a different dietary lifestyle, be open to challenging the status quo and embracing what aligns with your beliefs and values. Remember, parenting is a continual learning process, and by exploring unconventional avenues, you provide your child with an environment that encourages growth, innovation, and a unique perspective on the world. By daring to be different, you pave the way for a parenting journey that celebrates authenticity, individuality, and personal growth. And remember that in anything you do, be consistent. Consistency is what locks in the who, what, how, why, and when to parenting. Trust your instincts, break free from societal expectations, and embrace unconventional approaches that resonate with your family. Remember, being the parent you want to be is the greatest gift you can give your children. So, let go of guilt and empower yourself to forge your own path – one that leads to the well-being and happiness of your family.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Break Free from Expectations Society often imposes numerous expectations on parents, from comparing milestones to parenting philosophies. Dare to be different by breaking free from these unrealistic expectations and embracing what works best for your family. Create your own set of values, principles, and goals that reflect your family's unique dynamics and individuality. By doing so, you will cultivate an environment where your children can thrive authentically, free from the weight of societal pressures. 3. Embrace Unconventional Approaches Daring to be different also involves exploring alternative and unconventional approaches to parenting. Embrace and integrate progressive ideas and methodologies that resonate with you and your child's personality. Whether it's homeschooling, co-parenting, or adopting a different dietary lifestyle, be open to challenging the status quo and embracing what aligns with your beliefs and values. Remember, parenting is a continual learning process, and by exploring unconventional avenues, you provide your child with an environment that encourages growth, innovation, and a unique perspective on the world. By daring to be different, you pave the way for a parenting journey that celebrates authenticity, individuality, and personal growth. And remember that in anything you do, be consistent. Consistency is what locks in the who, what, how, why, and when to parenting. Trust your instincts, break free from societal expectations, and embrace unconventional approaches that resonate with your family. Remember, being the parent you want to be is the greatest gift you can give your children. So, let go of guilt and empower yourself to forge your own path – one that leads to the well-being and happiness of your family.   "Be present. Be incredible.

As we enter the holiday season, don't get bogged down in the rough patches. Rise above and thirst for more. And no, not more of the challenges. As you know, it's natural to encounter challenges that may leave you feeling exhausted, disappointed, or discouraged. Instead of getting bogged down in those rough patches and ditches, you get to rise above and embrace the transformative power of gratitude. This will open your heart and allow you to thirst for more.

We all possess an inherent desire to make a difference, to have a positive impact on the world we touch. Often, though, we tend to focus on what we lack or the obstacles we face. Yet, through the lens of gratitude, we can shift our perspective and acknowledge the blessings that surround us. Thirsting for more, when rooted in gratitude, is not a pursuit of material wealth or external validation. It's not about getting more of something. In fact, it's about harnessing the power of appreciation to expand your capacity for impact and influence, kindness and compassion; hope in the making. Imagine a flower reaching towards the sun, rooted in the earth, but constantly stretching towards the light. In the same way, gratitude nourishes your soul, anchoring you in the present while propelling you forward to seek more impactful ways of living. The K.I.S.S. ~ Thirst for more! By cultivating gratitude, you then recognize that challenges are not roadblocks; they are invitations for growth and expansion. Rather than dwelling on what you lack, you shift your focus to the abundance that exists within and around you. Gratitude becomes the catalyst that propels you to make a meaningful difference and amplify your impact. During the holiday season, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of festivities and consumerism. However, the true essence of this time lies in recognizing and appreciating the blessings we've been gifted with. Gratitude invites us to acknowledge the love, support, and opportunities we encounter daily, deepening our connection to the world and those around us. When you experience gratitude, you radiate positivity and attract more reasons to be thankful. It becomes a ripple effect, transforming not only your own life but also those you interact with. As you navigate the ebb and flow of life, let gratitude permeate and expand every aspect of your being. Allow it to shape your actions, relationships, and aspirations. Let it be a reminder that you have the power to touch lives, to create change, and to make a lasting impact by being a living legacy. "Embrace gratitude as a catalyst for expansion, for within its embrace lies the key to unlocking your ability to thirst for more." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, as you embrace the holiday season, let gratitude be your guiding light, leading you to a place of genuine appreciation and a deepened desire to expand your impact. May you rise above the challenges, recognizing them as opportunities for growth. May gratitude infuse your actions and intentions, allowing you to make a positive difference in the lives of others. And as you journey forward, thirst for more, not out of greed, but as an expression of your gratitude and commitment to leave this world a better place.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Discover how to conquer your cravings and turn eating back into a pleasurable experience. If you can turn eating into a pleasurable experience, that gives a "happy meal" a totally different meaning. Food is meant to nourish and energize our bodies, but it's also meant to be enjoyed with family and friends. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Unfortunately, many of us eat out of habit or emotions, without considering the consequences. We either follow the patterns we were raised with or fall into a lifestyle that's convenient but not necessarily healthy. Our failures often stem from chemical reactions that hijack our biology, cells, hormones, and brain. It's like receiving conflicting signals. When our pleasure center is activated, we naturally crave more of what brings us pleasure. This leads us down a path of indulging in deliciousness, but at the expense of our health. But fear not, help is here: Curb your cravings! The K.I.S.S. ~ Curb your cravings! Remember the days when you had to psych yourself up for a test, muster the courage to ask someone to dance, or gather the confidence to ask for a raise? Tap into that same tenacity and curb your cravings! To break free from addiction, you must eliminate the source of addiction. If it comes from nature, enjoy it! If God made it,  you can eat it. <ul> <li>Cut out processed foods. </li> <li>Avoid gluten, dairy, and all forms of sugar and sweeteners (yes, even the artificial ones).</li> <li>Say goodbye to grains, starchy vegetables, beans, and opt for berries if you crave fruit.</li> <li>Be mindful of your beverage choices - steer clear of inflammatory options like coffee, alcohol, soda, and juices.</li> </ul> Now, let's fill your plate with: <ul> <li>Plenty of non-starchy vegetables, especially greens!</li> <li>Protein with every meal.</li> <li>Stay hydrated with lots of water!</li> <li>Include healthy fats like avocado, coconut oil, nut/seed oil, or nut butter.</li> </ul> Here are some additional strategies to help curb your cravings. 1. If You Are Hungry, Eat a Healthy and Filling Meal It's important to distinguish between cravings and true hunger. Cravings are a result of your brain seeking the release of dopamine in the reward system, rather than a genuine need for energy. When you experience a craving while hungry, it can be incredibly challenging to resist. In fact, the combination of craving and hunger creates a strong drive that most people struggle to overcome. One effective trick is to immediately eat a healthy and satisfying meal when you feel a craving while hungry. Make sure your kitchen is stocked with nutritious snacks or pre-made meals for convenience. Protein-rich foods like meat, fish, and eggs are particularly beneficial for curbing hunger. Although real food may not seem as appealing as sugary junk food during a craving, building resilience and making healthy choices will pay off in the long run, especially if weight loss is your goal. 2. Take a Hot Shower For some people, taking a hot shower or bath can provide relief from sugar cravings. The water should be hot but not scalding, enough to make you feel slightly uncomfortable. Allow the water to run over your back and shoulders, gradually heating your body. Stay in the shower for at least 5-10 minutes. By the time you step out of the shower, you may experience a momentary "dazed" feeling, similar to the sensation after spending time in a sauna. At this point, your craving is likely to have subsided. 3. Go for a Brisk Walk Outside Another effective strategy is to go outside for a brisk walk. If you enjoy running, that can be even more beneficial. This approach serves a dual purpose. Firstly, it physically removes you from the proximity of the food you're craving. Secondly, the exercise triggers the release of endorphins, or "feel good" chemicals, in your brain, which can help turn off the craving. If going outside is not an option, try performing a few sets of demanding bodyweight exercises like jumping jacks, burpees, push-ups, or squats. The exertion and movement can distract your mind from the craving while releasing those beneficial endorphins. And let's not underestimate the power of a good night's sleep! You can enjoy food, but not let it control your life. Conquer your cravings and eat better.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Trust the process, have faith in yourself, and celebrate every step along this beautiful journey called life. In the midst of life's challenges and setbacks, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and lose sight of the possibilities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    When the pressure mounts, it can be challenging to see the light at the end of the tunnel. But just like a diamond forged under intense heat and pressure, we, too, have the potential to emerge stronger, more resilient, and even more beautiful than before. Life has a way of throwing us curveballs when we least expect it. It's during these times when we may question our abilities and doubt our own strength. However, it's important to trust in the process and have faith in something greater than ourselves. Believing that there is a purpose to our struggles can bring comfort and motivation to persevere. One thing you must remind yourself is that life is not meant to be perfect. It's a beautiful journey filled with both triumphs and tribulations. Each obstacle you encounter teaches you valuable lessons and shapes you into the individual you are meant to become. It is through these challenges that you discover your true potential and unearth your hidden strengths. During moments of darkness, when it feels like you are completely enveloped in shadows, it's important to remember that it is precisely in those moments that your inner light shines the brightest. Just as a diamond is only revealed after a prolonged period of obscurity, your true brilliance is uncovered when you overcome adversity. The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate every step! The key lies in embracing the journey, understanding that every twist and turn serves a purpose. Even though we may not see it at the moment, every setback is an opportunity for growth and transformation. It is these experiences that shape your character, deepen your empathy, and propel you toward your divine plan. Imagine the diamond. It starts as a rough stone, unremarkable and seemingly ordinary. But through immense pressure and heat, it undergoes a miraculous transformation. Gradually, it transforms into a dazzling gemstone, reflecting light in a kaleidoscope of colors. Its flaws become part of its unique beauty, making it all the more extraordinary. When you face adversity, remember you have a choice. You can allow yourself to be crushed by the weight of your challenges, or you can embrace them as opportunities for growth. Like the diamond, your journey towards becoming your true self requires perseverance, resilience, and a willingness to endure. So, the next time you find yourself in the midst of difficult circumstances, hold on to that diamond within you. Trust that the pressure and heat you are experiencing are molding you into something extraordinary. Embrace the beauty of the journey, knowing that every twist and turn will ultimately lead you to the spectacular person you are becoming. Life isn't about avoiding challenges; it's about rising above them. Remember, the greater the pressure, the higher the heat; the longer in the dark, the more beautiful the diamond. Trust the process, have faith in yourself, and celebrate every step along this beautiful journey called life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Trust the process, have faith in yourself, and celebrate every step along this beautiful journey called life. In the midst of life's challenges and setbacks, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and lose sight of the possibilities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But just like a diamond forged under intense heat and pressure, we, too, have the potential to emerge stronger, more resilient, and even more beautiful than before. Life has a way of throwing us curveballs when we least expect it. It's during these times when we may question our abilities and doubt our own strength. However, it's important to trust in the process and have faith in something greater than ourselves. Believing that there is a purpose to our struggles can bring comfort and motivation to persevere. One thing you must remind yourself is that life is not meant to be perfect. It's a beautiful journey filled with both triumphs and tribulations. Each obstacle you encounter teaches you valuable lessons and shapes you into the individual you are meant to become. It is through these challenges that you discover your true potential and unearth your hidden strengths. During moments of darkness, when it feels like you are completely enveloped in shadows, it's important to remember that it is precisely in those moments that your inner light shines the brightest. Just as a diamond is only revealed after a prolonged period of obscurity, your true brilliance is uncovered when you overcome adversity. The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate every step! The key lies in embracing the journey, understanding that every twist and turn serves a purpose. Even though we may not see it at the moment, every setback is an opportunity for growth and transformation. It is these experiences that shape your character, deepen your empathy, and propel you toward your divine plan. Imagine the diamond. It starts as a rough stone, unremarkable and seemingly ordinary. But through immense pressure and heat, it undergoes a miraculous transformation. Gradually, it transforms into a dazzling gemstone, reflecting light in a kaleidoscope of colors. Its flaws become part of its unique beauty, making it all the more extraordinary. When you face adversity, remember you have a choice. You can allow yourself to be crushed by the weight of your challenges, or you can embrace them as opportunities for growth. Like the diamond, your journey towards becoming your true self requires perseverance, resilience, and a willingness to endure. So, the next time you find yourself in the midst of difficult circumstances, hold on to that diamond within you. Trust that the pressure and heat you are experiencing are molding you into something extraordinary. Embrace the beauty of the journey, knowing that every twist and turn will ultimately lead you to the spectacular person you are becoming.

When life's obstacles weigh you down, learn how to face resistance and live the life you desire. It's a common experience, and one that can be both disheartening and discouraging. However, know that these moments of resistance are not there to stop you, but to strengthen you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You can achieve your dreams. However, if you don't find a way to face resistance, your dreams will never become a reality.  "Resistance is not there to stop you, but to strengthen you. Embrace the challenges and rise above. GRIT don't quit." - Kristianne Wargo  The K.I.S.S. ~ G.R.I.T. don't quit! Growth Requires Intentional Tenacity Resistance has a way of increasing the possibility of quitting. But in order to grow and achieve success, you must have the mindset of being intentional and persistent in your efforts. G.R.I.T. emphasizes the need to be proactive, purposeful, and present in pursuing personal and professional growth. By being intentional with your words and actions, and consistently putting in the effort, you can overcome obstacles and reach your goals, all with GRIT! What does this look like in the real world? 1. Embrace the Power of Persistence Persistence is key in the face of resistance. It's important to remember that success rarely comes easy. This is where the power of resilience comes into play. Instead of giving in to the challenges that arise, see them as opportunities for growth and learning. Every setback can be seen as a step forward in disguise. As the saying goes, "When one door closes, another one opens." Embrace the power of persistence and keep pushing forward, even when it seems impossible. 2. Cultivate a Positive Mindset One of the most effective ways to overcome resistance is by cultivating a positive mindset. Your mindset plays a crucial role in how you perceive and react to challenges. Instead of viewing obstacles as roadblocks, train your mind to see them as stepping stones towards success. Focus on the opportunities that lie within the difficulties, rather than dwelling on the setbacks. Adopt a "can-do" attitude and surround yourself with positive influences. As the Scripture says, "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." (Philippians 4:8) 3. Seek Support and Guidance We all need support and guidance when facing resistance. Reach out to mentors, friends, or fellow dream-chasers who have experienced similar challenges. Their wisdom and insight can provide a fresh perspective and help you develop effective strategies to overcome obstacles. Additionally, consider seeking divine guidance. In times of difficulty, turn to your faith and seek solace in God's plans. Trust in His timing and lean on His strength. As the Scripture says, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and he shall direct your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6). Facing resistance is an inevitable part of pursuing your dreams. Embrace the challenges as opportunities for growth and learning, and persist in your journey. Cultivate a positive mindset and surround yourself with positive influences. Seek support and guidance from mentors and those who have walked the same path. Remember, resistance only makes you stronger. Rise above the hurdles, and keep moving forward toward the fulfillment of your dreams. Trust in the process, keep the faith, and let the resistance propel you to new heights of success. "Resistance is not there to stop you, but to strengthen you. Embrace the challenges and rise above. G.R.I.T. don't quit!" - Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

We set our sights on achieving success. But what if it's not the destination, but the journey? Greatness comes in preparation. Consider the life of Jesus Christ, whose journey toward spreading the "good news" was an everlasting inspiration to millions. Jesus did not simply appear on this earth and immediately begin His mission. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Instead, He walked amongst men, embracing the humanity and struggles that we all face. Jesus' journey was in preparation for greatness. It was in the moments of doubt, sacrifice, and perseverance that people came to truly know who He was. His impact was greater because he experienced the same challenges and temptations as his followers. His reach was broader because he understood the depths of human emotion, and was able to connect with people on a profound level. You are on your own unique journey towards greatness. It is through the trials and tribulations, the ups and downs, that you develop resilience, wisdom, and compassion. The process shapes you into the person you are meant to be, molding you into vessels through which greatness can flow. The K.I.S.S. ~ Greatness comes in preparation! As the famous quote by Lao Tzu, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." Each step you take, no matter how small, propels you forward on the path toward greatness. It is not solely about the end goal, but the transformation that occurs within yourself along the way. Embrace the process, for it is in preparation for who you are becoming. In a world that often values instant gratification and immediate results, remember the wisdom shared through the timeless stories of the Bible. Abraham, Joseph, Moses, and countless others embarked on incredible journeys, filled with obstacles and setbacks, before reaching their ultimate destinies. It was through these journeys that they became instruments of change and touched the lives of many. "The journey is the canvas on which greatness is painted." Philippians 1:6 - "Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." So, my friend, do not be discouraged if your path seems long and winding. Embrace the challenges and setbacks, for it is in these moments that you are honing your skills, developing your character, and gaining the necessary wisdom to make a lasting impact. Greatness is not defined by a single achievement, but by the collective experiences and lessons learned along the way. Greatness comes in preparation.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

His reach was broader because he understood the depths of human emotion, and was able to connect with people on a profound level. You are on your own unique journey towards greatness. It is through the trials and tribulations, the ups and downs, that you develop resilience, wisdom, and compassion. The process shapes you into the person you are meant to be, molding you into vessels through which greatness can flow. The K.I.S.S. ~ Greatness comes in preparation! As the famous quote by Lao Tzu, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." Each step you take, no matter how small, propels you forward on the path toward greatness. It is not solely about the end goal, but the transformation that occurs within yourself along the way. Embrace the process, for it is in preparation for who you are becoming. In a world that often values instant gratification and immediate results, remember the wisdom shared through the timeless stories of the Bible. Abraham, Joseph, Moses, and countless others embarked on incredible journeys, filled with obstacles and setbacks, before reaching their ultimate destinies. It was through these journeys that they became instruments of change and touched the lives of many. "The journey is the canvas on which greatness is painted." Philippians 1:6 - "Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." So, my friend, do not be discouraged if your path seems long and winding. Embrace the challenges and setbacks, for it is in these moments that you are honing your skills, developing your character, and gaining the necessary wisdom to make a lasting impact. Greatness is not defined by a single achievement, but by the collective experiences and lessons learned along the way. Greatness comes in preparation.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But when we are adults, we step on hearts. If you do not want to wound your spouse emotionally, don't step on the heart. This is true for parenting and marriage. When things overlap with such a distinguished definition, you better take a second look. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In marriage, we may inadvertently 'step on each other's toes,' causing temporary discomfort, just like was done when the kiddos did it. However, the real pain arises when we 'step on each other's hearts,' causing emotional wounds. Many times, these wounds are unintentional, resulting from blind spots we have in our relationships. If you want to protect your spouse's heart, avoid the pitfalls that keep the ditch fresh.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Avoid pitfalls that keep the ditch fresh! These are pitfalls that will create quicksand in your marriage and will grow over time. 1. Don't Rush to 'Fix' the Problem: Instead of immediately seeking solutions, take the time to truly listen and connect with your spouse. Show them love and support by prioritizing emotional validation before problem-solving. 2. Don't Make Plans Without Consulting Your Spouse: Every decision you make impacts your spouse. Show respect by considering their thoughts and opinions before finalizing plans. 3. Don't 'Check out' Other People: Engaging in distracted or flirtatious behavior with others, even if it remains verbal or non-verbal, undermines your spouse's confidence and trust. Reinforce your commitment by being mentally monogamous. 4. Don't 'Hide' Your Spouse Instead of Highlighting Them: Keeping your marriage separate from other aspects of your life may seem like protection, but it can actually hurt your spouse. Proudly display your commitment through public gestures of affection, wearing your wedding ring, and showcasing your spouse in all areas of your life. Remember, marriage is a journey that requires constant effort and growth. By recognizing and addressing these unintended behaviors, you can strengthen the bond with your spouse and create a lasting, fulfilling relationship. Take the necessary steps to protect each other's hearts, foster trust, and celebrate the love you share. Together, you can build a marriage that withstands any challenge.   "Be present.

So, you've got to be intentional with what you desire for your family. Society, extended family, and friends all have their expectations and opinions on how you should raise your children. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But amidst this complexity, how do you stay true to your own goals and put your child's needs first? It's an intricate balance, but with a little self-reflection and a lot of empathy, you can navigate this delicate terrain successfully. As parents, we all want to prove that we know how to raise our children, which can push us to seek validation and approval from others. But you have to remember, this is your family! This is not your parent's family or your in-law's family. This is not your best friend's family. You have to consider what your child needs and then make the best decision for your family. Because deep down, you know that the happiness and well-being of your child should always be your primary concern. Let's look at some essential strategies to help you focus on your family's goals and values, while not letting the influences of others overshadow your parental instincts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Essential strategies to parent your way! 1. Define Your Family's Priorities Take the time to identify and clarify your family's goals and values. Sit down with your partner and discuss what is important in raising your child. Is it their moral development, academic achievements, or emotional well-being? Once you have defined your priorities, it becomes easier to filter out external opinions that do not align with what is best for your child. "By understanding and prioritizing what truly matters to your family, you can confidently navigate the maze of parenting expectations." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Establish Boundaries Boundaries play a crucial role in protecting your parenting decisions and maintaining healthy harmony. Respectfully communicate your boundaries to those around you, clarifying what you are comfortable with and what you are not. This helps create a supportive environment where your child's needs are placed at the forefront, and you can confidently make decisions without fearing judgment or criticism. Remember, setting boundaries is not about shutting others out; it is about safeguarding your child's well-being and ensuring the choices you make are rooted in love, compassion, and respect. 3. Seek Support from Like-Minded People Surrounding yourself with individuals who share similar parenting philosophies can be a valuable source of support and guidance. Seek out local parenting support groups, join online communities, or attend workshops specifically tailored to your style of parenting. Connecting with like-minded individuals allows you to exchange ideas, gain perspective, and find encouragement from others who understand the unique challenges of staying true to your beliefs while pleasing everyone. Now, your family (like grandparents, aunts, and uncles) can be that support too. But remember, it's your word and goals for your family that matter most. So be sure that if they are giving you advice, you still consider carefully what is right for you and best for your child. Parenting is a journey that requires constant adaptation and growth. While it is natural to want to please others, it is essential to remember that you are the expert when it comes to your child. By focusing on your family's goals, establishing boundaries, and seeking support from like-minded communities, you can confidently put your child first while navigating the expectations of others. In the end, always remember that you are doing your best, and that, above all, your child's happiness, health, and growth are what truly matter.

Instead of focusing on the waiting, reclaim the power of now. There is a lot of waiting in our world. We wait for the bus, we wait in line at the grocery store, and we wait for that promotion or dream opportunity to come along. But what if waiting became a thing of the past? What if we could reclaim the power of now, and make each moment count? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Imagine a world where waiting is seen as an opportunity, rather than a burden. A world where we no longer put our lives on hold, waiting for the perfect time to pursue our dreams or embark on new adventures. It's time to break free from the shackles of waiting and seize the day with a smile on our faces. Life is too precious to be spent waiting for the right moment to arrive. As Thomas Edison once said, "The time will never be just right. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have." These words hold profound wisdom. Instead of waiting for the stars to align, why not take the leap and make the most of what you have right now? The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim the power of now! When you stop waiting, you rediscover your sense of purpose. You realize that every day is an opportunity to make a difference, to chase our dreams, and to embrace the endless possibilities that life has to offer. It's time to stop procrastinating and start living. By letting go of the habit of waiting, you cultivate a positive mindset that propels you forward. You begin to see obstacles as stepping stones rather than roadblocks. You become resilient and adaptable, ready to face any challenges that come your way. No longer bound by the limitations of waiting, you become architects of your own destiny, building a life filled with happiness and fulfillment. The key lies in taking A.I.M.! When you stop waiting for permission or validation, your untapped potential is unlocked. Each small step you take is a victory, a testament to your courage and determination. With each accomplishment, you grow stronger and more confident in your abilities. So, embark on this journey of embracing the power of now.

Instead of focusing on the waiting, reclaim the power of now. There is a lot of waiting in our world. We wait for the bus, we wait in line at the grocery store, and we wait for that promotion or dream opportunity to come along. But what if waiting became a thing of the past? What if we could reclaim the power of now, and make each moment count? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Imagine a world where waiting is seen as an opportunity, rather than a burden. A world where we no longer put our lives on hold, waiting for the perfect time to pursue our dreams or embark on new adventures. It's time to break free from the shackles of waiting and seize the day with a smile on our faces. Life is too precious to be spent waiting for the right moment to arrive. As Thomas Edison once said, "The time will never be just right. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have." These words hold profound wisdom. Instead of waiting for the stars to align, why not take the leap and make the most of what you have right now? The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim the power of now! When you stop waiting, you rediscover your sense of purpose. You realize that every day is an opportunity to make a difference, to chase our dreams, and to embrace the endless possibilities that life has to offer. It's time to stop procrastinating and start living. By letting go of the habit of waiting, you cultivate a positive mindset that propels you forward. You begin to see obstacles as stepping stones rather than roadblocks. You become resilient and adaptable, ready to face any challenges that come your way. No longer bound by the limitations of waiting, you become architects of your own destiny, building a life filled with happiness and fulfillment. The key lies in taking A.I.M.! When you stop waiting for permission or validation, your untapped potential is unlocked. Each small step you take is a victory, a testament to your courage and determination. With each accomplishment, you grow stronger and more confident in your abilities. So, embark on this journey of embracing the power of now. Make a promise to yourself, right here, right now, to live each day with intention and purpose. Remember, today is not just another day; it is a chance to make a difference, to chase your dreams, and to live life to the fullest. Take a deep breath and inhale the feeling of empowerment that now fills your being. Embrace the energy coursing through your veins, ready to attack the day with a smile. With every moment that passes, remember that life is too precious to be spent waiting. It's time to take charge, to seize the present, and to unlock a future filled with limitless possibilities.  "Stop waiting for the perfect moment, because every moment is perfect in its own way.

Don't give away who you are becoming. Know your worth. For many, the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle is driven by the desire to change their physical appearance, in the hope that it will somehow give them a sense of worth. However, the truth is, no amount of weight loss or muscle gain can truly determine your worth as a person. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    To truly live a healthy lifestyle, it's important to focus on more than just the physical aspects. It's about cultivating a healthy reflection of who you see in the mirror, both inside and out. When you can look at yourself and see someone who is strong, confident, and deserving of love and respect, your decisions will naturally align with that mindset. You'll be able to confidently make decisions that support where you want to go and the goals in front. So what that really means is that you won't fight yourself as much. You are doing what you need to do for you. How can you know your worth and live a healthy lifestyle based on your reflection and who you believe you are becoming? See who you want to be. The K.I.S.S. ~ See who you want to be! 1. Practice self-love: Begin by genuinely accepting and loving yourself, just as you are in this moment. Recognize that your worth is not determined by your appearance, but by the unique qualities and strengths you bring to the world. Treat yourself with kindness, compassion, and respect, and make self-care a priority. 2. Shift your mindset: Rather than viewing healthy living as a punishment or a chore, reframe your perspective. Instead, see it as an opportunity to take care of yourself, nourish your body and mind, and become your best version. Embrace the journey as a chance for growth and self-improvement, rather than solely focusing on the outcome. 3. Set realistic goals: It's easy to fall into the trap of setting unrealistic expectations for ourselves, especially when it comes to our health and fitness. Instead, aim for attainable goals that align with your values and priorities. Focus on progress, not perfection, and celebrate each small step forward along the way. Remember, your worth is not determined by the number on the scale or the size of your jeans. In the end, it's important to remember that your worth as a person is not contingent upon your physical appearance. True self-worth comes from within, from nurturing a positive mindset, practicing self-love, and embracing the journey of personal growth. When you can see your reflection and genuinely believe in the person you are becoming, living a healthy lifestyle becomes a natural and fulfilling part of your life.

Unlearn what does not serve you. Much of what we do in our day-to-day lives is done on autopilot, without conscious thought or consideration. This can lead us down a path we didn't intend to follow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    So, take a moment to pause, reflect, and consciously look at what is not serving you today. And you don't have to go through your whole day without doing anything.  When something comes up, address it right then and there. Now, this is not an easy task, but it is necessary if you want to create a life that aligns with your goals and aspirations. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unlearn what does not serve you! As you look at your days, it's important to determine what exactly is not serving you well. <ul> <li>Is it a negative mindset that constantly holds you back from taking risks? </li> <li>Is it a habit of procrastination that hampers your productivity and growth? </li> <li>Or is it a cycle of self-doubt that prevents you from pursuing your dreams? Identifying these patterns is the first step towards unlearning them.</li> </ul> Whatever it is, once you have recognized the behaviors and habits that do not serve you, it's time to replace them with ones that do. This is going to require you to make a conscious effort to rewire your neural pathways and create a new, positive mindset. Surround yourself with positive influences, whether through books, podcasts, or the company you keep. Seek out mentors or role models who embody the qualities you aspire to have. Start small and celebrate even the tiniest victories along the way. Unlearn what does not serve you. And in the unlearning process, it's important to be gentle with yourself. Change takes time, and setbacks are inevitable. Remember that it's okay to stumble and make mistakes. It's through these failures that we learn and grow the most. Be compassionate towards yourself and acknowledge that unlearning is a lifelong journey; there is no finish line, only continuous growth and improvement. So, don't get frustrated with yourself. Instead, embrace the discomfort that comes with unlearning what does not serve you. You may find yourself stepping out of your comfort zone, questioning long-held beliefs, and challenging societal norms. But in doing so, you give yourself the opportunity to create a life that is truly aligned with your passions and values. Create your now! Remember, my friend, that you've got what it takes to unlearn what does not serve you. With each conscious decision, with each new behavior formed, you can redefine who you are, who you are becoming, and what you are capable of. Empower yourself to let go of the old and make room for the new. Growth comes from unlearning what does not serve. Create your now!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    So, take a moment to pause, reflect, and consciously look at what is not serving you today. And you don't have to go through your whole day without doing anything.  When something comes up, address it right then and there. Now, this is not an easy task, but it is necessary if you want to create a life that aligns with your goals and aspirations. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unlearn what does not serve you! As you look at your days, it's important to determine what exactly is not serving you well. <ul> <li>Is it a negative mindset that constantly holds you back from taking risks? </li> <li>Is it a habit of procrastination that hampers your productivity and growth? </li> <li>Or is it a cycle of self-doubt that prevents you from pursuing your dreams? Identifying these patterns is the first step towards unlearning them.</li> </ul> Whatever it is, once you have recognized the behaviors and habits that do not serve you, it's time to replace them with ones that do. This is going to require you to make a conscious effort to rewire your neural pathways and create a new, positive mindset. Surround yourself with positive influences, whether through books, podcasts, or the company you keep. Seek out mentors or role models who embody the qualities you aspire to have. Start small and celebrate even the tiniest victories along the way. Unlearn what does not serve you. And in the unlearning process, it's important to be gentle with yourself. Change takes time, and setbacks are inevitable. Remember that it's okay to stumble and make mistakes. It's through these failures that we learn and grow the most. Be compassionate towards yourself and acknowledge that unlearning is a lifelong journey; there is no finish line, only continuous growth and improvement. So, don't get frustrated with yourself. Instead, embrace the discomfort that comes with unlearning what does not serve you. You may find yourself stepping out of your comfort zone, questioning long-held beliefs, and challenging societal norms. But in doing so, you give yourself the opportunity to create a life that is truly aligned with your passions and values. Create your now! Remember, my friend, that you've got what it takes to unlearn what does not serve you. With each conscious decision, with each new behavior formed, you can redefine who you are, who you are becoming, and what you are capable of. Empower yourself to let go of the old and make room for the new. Growth comes from unlearning what does not serve. Create your now!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But what happens when someone comes along and tries to bring you down, putting you on the defensive? Love your enemies. It's so easy to celebrate those moments with joy and pride. Yet, it's also easy to let their negativity consume your thoughts and influence your behavior. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, you don't have to let yourself go there. Most people don't want to talk about the struggles that hit too close to home. And having to love your enemies is something most of use don't want to do. There is a better way though. If you want to love your enemies, then rise above their influence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above their influence! 1. Embrace Empathy One of the most powerful tools we have in dealing with difficult people is empathy. Try to put yourself in their shoes rather than letting their actions or words bring you down. Attempt to understand their perspective, motivations, and struggles. By doing so, you may find compassion and empathy within yourself. Remember the words of the great Mahatma Gandhi, "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind." Choose understanding over retaliation. 2. Practice Forgiveness Forgiveness is never easy, especially when someone has intentionally hurt you. However, holding onto anger and resentment does more damage to your own well-being than to the person who harmed you. Bernhard Lang once said, "Anger cannot be overcome by anger. If someone is angry with you, and you show anger in return, the result is a disaster. Instead, show compassion. That is the way to end anger.” Choose forgiveness over grudges and let go of the heavy burden you've been carrying. Not only will you find peace within yourself, but you may also inspire change in your enemies. 3. Lead by Example One of the most powerful ways to love your enemies is to rise above their negativity and show kindness and respect. Never underestimate the power of leading by example. Jesus, in his Sermon on the Mount, said, "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you." By responding to their hostility with love, you not only diffuse the situation but also demonstrate your strength and character. Your positive influence may encourage them to change their ways, and even if it doesn't, you can take pride in the fact that you stay true to your values. "Loving your enemies requires strength, but it also reveals your true character. Embrace empathy, practice forgiveness, and lead by example. You can rise above the negativity and change their hearts through love." Remember, my friend, it's not about letting your enemies define you; it's about defining yourself through love and compassion. Rise above their negativity and choose to embrace empathy, forgiveness, and leading by example. By doing so, you will not only free yourself from their influence, but also become a beacon of light, inspiring those around you to follow suit.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Be who God created you to be and be faithful in the ordinary. You may long for drastic change, big accomplishments, and impactful moments. But remember, true greatness often resides in the seemingly ordinary. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In the hustle and bustle of your daily routine, it’s easy to overlook the power of your actions. You may question whether your efforts are making a difference, whether they are worthy of praise or recognition. But it’s in these very moments, within the ordinary, that you have the opportunity to cultivate a life of purpose and leave your mark on the world. Scripture reminds us that even the smallest acts of kindness and faithfulness can create a ripple effect of transformation. As the apostle Paul wrote in Galatians 6:9, "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Look at Mother Teresa, whose profound impact on the lives of the poor and marginalized in Calcutta continues to inspire generations. Her life was not about grandiose gestures or seeking fame. It was built upon the faithful commitment to love and serve others, moment by moment, day by day. Her presence led to her actions, which became her words. You, too, have the power to influence lives, whether through a genuine smile for a stranger, lending a helping hand to a friend in need, or simply being fully present with your loved ones. These seemingly insignificant acts become pieces of a greater tapestry, woven together to create a world filled with love, compassion, and joy. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be faithful in the ordinary! In the book of Matthew, Jesus reminds us, "You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" (Matthew 5:14-16). This is a call for you to shine brightly, not just in the extraordinary moments of life, but also in the ordinary, mundane tasks that you often overlook. Whether it’s the consistency of waking up early every morning to spend time in prayer and reflection, the dedication to do your work with excellence and integrity, or the willingness to show up and be present for those who need you most, your faithfulness matters. Remember, you are an essential piece in God’s grand design. You may not see the whole picture now, but your everyday life is used for a greater purpose. Your faithfulness in the ordinary is an act of obedience, a testament to your love and commitment to God and others. So, embrace the beauty of the ordinary. Be present in the part that God has given you to touch. Relish in the small victories and find joy in the everyday blessings. Your faithful actions, even in the seemingly insignificant moments, are like pebbles thrown into a vast ocean, creating a ripple effect that touches countless lives. Be faithful in the ordinary. Let your light shine brightly wherever you go. Remember that your actions, no matter how small, have the power to shape a world in need of love and kindness. The ripple effect of your faithfulness will echo through eternity, leaving a legacy that far surpasses any extraordinary act.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Even though you might be fighting the unseen battles, your marriage can thrive. These untamed conflicts can silently erode the foundation of a marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, if both partners commit to leading with kindness and compassion, even in the fiercest storms, they can rise above the challenges and nurture a healthy and fulfilling relationship. The K.I.S.S. ~ Commit to action! 1. Practicing Empathy The first step towards fostering a kind and compassionate environment within your marriage is to practice empathy. Empathy allows us to see the world through our partner's eyes, to understand their perspective, and to validate their emotions without judgment. When disagreements arise, take a moment to pause and genuinely listen to your spouse before responding. Seek to understand their feelings and needs, and approach the conversation with sensitivity and respect. Recall Proverbs 18:13 which reminds us, "To answer before listening— that is folly and shame." 2. Choosing Words Wisely Words wield immense power in shaping our relationships, and the way we choose to express ourselves during heated moments can either heal or harm. When arguments arise, refrain from personal attacks or resorting to hurtful language. Instead, strive to communicate your thoughts and concerns in a calm and constructive manner. Using "I" statements, such as "I feel" or "I need," can foster a more open dialogue. Remember the wisdom from Ephesians 4:29, "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear." 3. Practicing Forgiveness Forgiveness is a vital component of any lasting marriage. It allows us to let go of past hurts, heal wounds, and move forward together. Instead of holding grudges, practice forgiveness by striving to understand your partner's intentions and extending grace. Remember, we are all imperfect beings, and forgiveness allows us to cultivate deeper love and connection. Reflect on Colossians 3:13, "Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." "Behind closed doors, the battles may rage, but the power of kindness and compassion can ignite a flame that conquers all storms and leads to marital bliss." Marriage is a lifelong commitment that requires unwavering dedication and effort. By leading with kindness and compassion, couples can fight against the unseen battles and build a foundation of love, trust, and understanding. Through empathy, mindful communication, and forgiveness, couples can transform their homes into sanctuaries of profound connection and intimacy. Together, let us embrace the beauty and power of a marriage fueled by kindness and compassion.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Even though you might be fighting the unseen battles, your marriage can thrive. These untamed conflicts can silently erode the foundation of a marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, if both partners commit to leading with kindness and compassion, even in the fiercest storms, they can rise above the challenges and nurture a healthy and fulfilling relationship. The K.I.S.S. ~ Commit to action! 1. Practicing Empathy The first step towards fostering a kind and compassionate environment within your marriage is to practice empathy. Empathy allows us to see the world through our partner's eyes, to understand their perspective, and to validate their emotions without judgment. When disagreements arise, take a moment to pause and genuinely listen to your spouse before responding. Seek to understand their feelings and needs, and approach the conversation with sensitivity and respect. Recall Proverbs 18:13 which reminds us, "To answer before listening— that is folly and shame." 2. Choosing Words Wisely Words wield immense power in shaping our relationships, and the way we choose to express ourselves during heated moments can either heal or harm. When arguments arise, refrain from personal attacks or resorting to hurtful language. Instead, strive to communicate your thoughts and concerns in a calm and constructive manner. Using "I" statements, such as "I feel" or "I need," can foster a more open dialogue. Remember the wisdom from Ephesians 4:29, "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear." 3.

You can redirect them and teach them all the right things. But in parenting, control is merely an illusion. As parents, we tend to believe we control our children's lives and destinies. We meticulously plan, set boundaries, and try our best to enforce rules. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, if there's one thing that parenting teaches us, it's that control is merely an illusion. Kids have a mind of their own, with unique ideas, desires, and dreams. Embracing the notion that parenting is not about control can be liberating and pave the way for a stronger parent-child relationship based on trust, understanding, and genuine connection. When the feeling of being out of control begins to overwhelm you, here are three things you can do to navigate through those challenging moments: The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the unpredictable! 1. Embrace Flexibility: Rather than resisting the unpredictable nature of parenting, learn to embrace it. Remember that every child is different, and what works for one may not work for another. Embracing flexibility allows you to adapt to your child's changing needs and preferences. It means being open to unexpected outcomes and understanding that the journey of parenthood may not always go according to plan. By letting go of control and accepting the ebb and flow of parenting, you can experience a newfound sense of freedom. 2. Practice Active Listening: When you feel out of control, take a step back and actively listen to your child. Create a safe space for them to express their thoughts, emotions, and concerns without judgment. By genuinely listening to their perspectives, you gain valuable insights into their world, allowing you to understand their motivations and desires. This approach promotes open communication, strengthens your bond, and fosters a sense of mutual respect. Remember, genuine connection surpasses control. 3. Foster Independence and Decision-making Skills: Instead of focusing solely on controlling your child's actions, encourage their independence and decision-making abilities. Provide opportunities for them to make choices, express their preferences, and learn from their mistakes. This approach empowers them to become confident individuals capable of making sound decisions. By letting go of excessive control, you allow your child to grow, develop their own identity, and learn valuable life lessons along the way. "Parenting isn't about controlling every outcome, but about guiding with love and giving children the tools they need to navigate the world independently."   Your role as a parent is to be a guiding force, providing wisdom, guidance, and support rather than striving for absolute control. By embracing this perspective, you can support your children's growth and development while forging a deep and meaningful bond that stands the test of time. Remember, parenting is a journey of discovery, growth, and acceptance. Letting go of control doesn't signify a lack of responsibility, but rather a willingness to embrace the beautiful chaos that comes with raising children. So, take a deep breath, trust in your instincts, and embark on this exciting adventure with an open heart and an open mind.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't get caught in saying Yes just because it's easier. Say NO to lighten the load. I'm sure you've felt the weight of the world on your shoulders.  In our fast-paced, hyperconnected society, which is really more disconnected than connected, it's easy to fall into the trap of believing that doing more and doing it faster is the key to success.

"Sometimes, we carry the weight of the world, trying to prove that we can handle it all. But in reality, we hold ourselves hostage to what doesn't truly matter." ~ Kristianne Wargo It is important to take a step back, reassess your priorities, and learn to say no before you are quick to say yes. Because in your quest for productivity, you often lose sight of what truly matters. You spend your days chasing deadlines, attending endless meetings, and constantly juggling multiple responsibilities. You become consumed by the need to appease others, to meet their expectations, and to show the world that you can do it all. Might feel good for a few seconds; but in the process, you lose yourself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lighten the load! The truth is, life is about so much more than simply getting ahead. It's about finding harmony, cherishing relationships, and nurturing your own well-being. It's about daring to say NO to things that don't align with your values and priorities, and YES to what truly makes your heart sing. So, my dear friend, today I encourage you to lighten the load. Take a moment to reflect on your to-do list and consider what truly matters. Embrace the power of saying NO to the things that drain your energy and rob you of joy. Prioritize self-care and create space for what truly brings you fulfillment. Remember, it's not about how much you can accomplish or how fast you can do it. It's about finding your own rhythms, embracing the journey, and savoring each moment along the way. Life is not a race, but a beautiful tapestry of experiences and connections, a marathon for decades. As you go about your day, be willing to say NO before you are quick to say YES. Lighten the load and watch as the weight on your shoulders starts to dissipate. You'll stand much taller physically and mentally, allowing you to create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

You spend your days chasing deadlines, attending endless meetings, and constantly juggling multiple responsibilities. You become consumed by the need to appease others, to meet their expectations, and to show the world that you can do it all. Might feel good for a few seconds; but in the process, you lose yourself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lighten the load! The truth is, life is about so much more than simply getting ahead. It's about finding harmony, cherishing relationships, and nurturing your own well-being. It's about daring to say NO to things that don't align with your values and priorities, and YES to what truly makes your heart sing. So, my dear friend, today I encourage you to lighten the load. Take a moment to reflect on your to-do list and consider what truly matters. Embrace the power of saying NO to the things that drain your energy and rob you of joy. Prioritize self-care and create space for what truly brings you fulfillment. Remember, it's not about how much you can accomplish or how fast you can do it. It's about finding your own rhythms, embracing the journey, and savoring each moment along the way. Life is not a race, but a beautiful tapestry of experiences and connections, a marathon for decades. As you go about your day, be willing to say NO before you are quick to say YES. Lighten the load and watch as the weight on your shoulders starts to dissipate. You'll stand much taller physically and mentally, allowing you to create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

When you look at your body, what do you see? Health or a bill? Depending on your reflection, are you willing to pay the price? No one is forced to eat, live, move, and sleep a certain way. Yet, there are guidelines that, for most of us, are ignored. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We are bombarded with messages from advertisements, influencers, and social media, all advocating for different lifestyles and quick fixes. It becomes challenging to decipher what is truly beneficial and what is merely a fad. If you find yourself questioning whether you are making good decisions or simply going with the flow, look so you can see. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look so you can see! 1. Reflect on Your Habits: Take a step back and honestly assess your daily habits. Are you making conscious choices, or are you simply following what everyone else is doing? Consider your eating habits, exercise routine, sleep schedule, and overall lifestyle. Do you prioritize your health, or are you neglecting it in favor of convenience? This reflection will provide clarity on whether you are actively making good decisions or merely going along with societal influences. 2. Educate Yourself: Knowledge is power when it comes to healthy living. Invest time in educating yourself about nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle choices. Stay updated on the latest research and studies, and seek advice from trusted sources. By arming yourself with knowledge, you can make informed decisions that align with your goals and values. 3. Prioritize Self-Care: Taking care of your health is not a luxury; it is a necessity. Make self-care a non-negotiable part of your routine. This includes setting aside time for regular exercise, ensuring an adequate and restful sleep, and nourishing your body with wholesome foods. When you prioritize self-care, you are not just paying the price for a healthier lifestyle, but you are also investing in a better quality of life.  "Your health is your wealth, and it should never be compromised." Remember that making good decisions regarding your health is not about following trends or succumbing to societal pressures. It is about aligning your actions with your own well-being and happiness.

However, if you want to enjoy your every day, forget quicker than you remember. Life can be tough, there’s no denying that. It often feels like the weight of the world is on our shoulders, and it's easy to get caught up in the negativity surrounding us. But what if I told you there was a better way? A way to find joy and happiness in your everyday life, no matter what challenges come your way. It's simple, really - forget quicker than you remember. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's human nature to dwell on the bad and ugly things that happen to us. We replay conversations in our heads, clinging onto the hurtful words that were said. We relive our past failures, allowing them to define us. But what good does it do? It only robs us of the present moment, preventing us from fully experiencing all the beauty that surrounds us. Instead of dwelling on what went wrong, why not focus on what went right? Train your mind to let go of the negative thoughts and emotions that weigh you down. Have you ever noticed how quickly you forget the small inconveniences that happen throughout your day? That rude comment from a stranger or the traffic jam on your way to work - they have a way of fading into the background when something positive comes along. So why not apply this principle to the bigger, more significant challenges in your life? I believe that every setback is an opportunity for a comeback. It's a chance to learn valuable lessons, to become stronger, and to move forward. But in order to do that, you must learn to forget quicker than you remember. It's not about denying the pain or the hardships you've experienced, but rather shifting your focus to the possibilities that lie ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ Forget quicker than you remember!  "Forget the hurt, the pain, and the disappointments quicker than you remember them. This allows room for healing, growth, and the choice to live your every day with a smile. When you let go of the past, you give yourself permission to embrace the present and create your now." So, shift your mindset today. Instead of dwelling on what went wrong, ask yourself what you can learn from the situation. What new opportunities and possibilities await you? Be grateful for the lessons learned and the strength gained. Surround yourself with positive influences - friends, mentors, and uplifting media - that remind you of your true potential. Turn off the distractions that make you go back in the negative part of your day. Turn on music that makes your soul dance. Be present in the moment, savoring the simple joys that often go unnoticed. The laughter of a loved one, the warmth of the sun on your skin, the taste of your favorite meal - these are the moments that make life worth living. It's getting cooler outside, which means now you get to be a little more snuggly. When you fully immerse yourself in the moment, you'll find it easier to let go of the past and embrace the here and now. And as much as you are kind to a stranger, be kind to yourself today. You need an internal hug, too. We are all human, and we all make mistakes. So forgive yourself for the times you've stumbled, and celebrate your progress. Each new day is a fresh start with new mercies, a clean slate to create your now. My friend, I encourage you to forget quicker than you remember. Let go of the negativity and embrace the beauty that surrounds you. If you look for it, I promise you will find it. See your day through the eyes of a toddler. When you fall down, brush yourself off and smile. This is your day to shine bright.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Stop working against yourself; time tells all. When life has you in sinking sand, it's like trying to swim against a strong current, constantly swept away by everyone else's priorities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It's all you can do is to keep your head above water. But here's the thing - your time is precious, and it's time to take control. If you are wanting to spend your time differently, you gotta reclaim your day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim your day! 1. Create an Evening Ritual: Before you tuck yourself into bed, grab a pen and paper and take a few moments to reflect on your day and plan for tomorrow. This simple act of making a to-do list can make all the difference. Write down six essential tasks you want to accomplish the next day. The key here is to be realistic and prioritize the tasks that align with your goals. "Success doesn't just happen. It is planned for. It is intentionally pursued." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Narrow Down Your List: Instead of overwhelming yourself with multiple tasks, select one priority item that will move you closer to your long-term objectives. Consider what would bring the most value or satisfaction to your day. By focusing on a single task, you channel your energy and productivity into making real progress. Remember, "Focus is your superpower." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Picture Yourself at the Beginning of Your Day: You've woken up refreshed, armed with a clear intention for the day. Before diving headfirst into your priority task, allocate dedicated blocks of time for specific activities. This technique, known as time blocking, helps you structure your day and prevents distractions from derailing you. For example, you can allocate an hour for checking and responding to emails, followed by a focused two-hour block for working on your priority task.

Stop working against yourself; time tells all. When life has you in sinking sand, it's like trying to swim against a strong current, constantly swept away by everyone else's priorities.

But here's the thing - your time is precious, and it's time to take control. If you are wanting to spend your time differently, you gotta reclaim your day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim your day! 1. Create an Evening Ritual: Before you tuck yourself into bed, grab a pen and paper and take a few moments to reflect on your day and plan for tomorrow. This simple act of making a to-do list can make all the difference. Write down six essential tasks you want to accomplish the next day. The key here is to be realistic and prioritize the tasks that align with your goals. "Success doesn't just happen. It is planned for. It is intentionally pursued." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Narrow Down Your List: Instead of overwhelming yourself with multiple tasks, select one priority item that will move you closer to your long-term objectives. Consider what would bring the most value or satisfaction to your day. By focusing on a single task, you channel your energy and productivity into making real progress. Remember, "Focus is your superpower." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Picture Yourself at the Beginning of Your Day: You've woken up refreshed, armed with a clear intention for the day. Before diving headfirst into your priority task, allocate dedicated blocks of time for specific activities. This technique, known as time blocking, helps you structure your day and prevents distractions from derailing you. For example, you can allocate an hour for checking and responding to emails, followed by a focused two-hour block for working on your priority task. This disciplined approach ensures that you honor your commitment to yourself and your goals. By incorporating these three strategies into your daily routine, you'll find yourself taking charge of your time and accomplishing what truly matters. Remember, it's not about being busy; it's about being productive. As I like to say, "The power of managing your day is owning each hour with purpose." So, my friend, take a moment tonight to reflect, plan, and prioritize. Tomorrow, focus on that one important task and protect your time fiercely. Embrace time blocking and let your productivity soar.

But remember, "Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." Psalm 119:105  However, remember that God's Word isn't just a mere compilation of historical records or poetic verses. It's a way of life, a beacon guiding us through every season, offering hope and inspiration when you need it the most. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

They are designed to lead you to a life of joy, purpose, and alignment with God. Take a moment to reflect on how you're implementing these teachings into your daily life, and the benefit of how it can transform your perspective and bring you closer to God's intended path for you. Faith is not meant to be a solitary journey; it is communal, meant to be shared, discussed, and passed down from one generation to another. As Deuteronomy underscores, our homes should resonate with conversations about God's teachings. Our households should become places where faith is nurtured, love is evident, and the beauty of God's Word is brought to life. Consider the sacred task you have been entrusted with - shaping the next generation. It is not enough for them to be aware of God's commands; you must etch these commandments onto their hearts. Take a moment to reflect on how you are molding their spiritual journey. How can you make conversations about God's Word a more integral part of your household? The K.I.S.S. ~ A light unto my path! As you navigate through the ups and downs of life, remember the comforting words found in Psalm 119:105, "Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." Allow these words to resonate within you and guide you throughout your journey. Let them illuminate your steps, bringing clarity to your decisions and serving as a source of hope and inspiration. When you feel lost, disheartened, or uncertain about the path ahead, turn to God's Word. Let it be your compass, showing you the way and shedding light on even the darkest of moments. Embrace the truth that God's Word is not confined to the pages of a book; it is alive, breathing life into your soul and offering you the hope and inspiration you seek. So, my dear friend, take a moment to reflect. How can you shape your daily life to be a reflection of God's commandments? How can you make conversations about His Word a more integral part of your household? Embrace this opportunity to create your now; a home filled with love, faith, and the beauty of God's Word. Remember, when you align your life with His teachings, you will find yourself on a path paved with hope, inspiration, and unwavering faith.   "Be present. Be incredible.

And even in struggles and troubles, there lies a hidden truth - hardships are blessings in disguise. When disagreements arise and fights ensue, it's easy to get caught up in the storm of emotions. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But what if we shift our perspective? What if we view these moments as opportunities for growth and transformation? Rather than seeing them as obstacles, we can choose to see them as blessings that pave the way for a stronger, more resilient marriage. "When life throws challenges your way, it's not a sign of weakness. It's an invitation to work on your weaknesses together." Fighting and disagreements often reveal the vulnerabilities and weaknesses within a relationship. They expose the deep-seated fears, insecurities, and unmet needs that silently linger beneath the surface. By acknowledging and addressing these issues, couples can embark on a transformative journey toward healing and growth. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look for the blessings! Through the lens of faith, we can understand that God uses these hardships to refine us, to mold us into better versions of ourselves. Just as fire purifies gold, the difficulties we face in our marriage refine our character, deepen our empathy, and strengthen our love. In the midst of a fight, when emotions are running high, take a step back and reflect. Ask yourself, "What is this disagreement trying to teach us? How can we grow through this experience?" It is in these moments of introspection that we open the door to possibilities, to grace, and to a deeper understanding of our partner. Remember, hardships are not a reflection of weakness or failure. Rather, they are opportunities for growth, for connection, and for a deeper appreciation of the commitment we made to each other in front of God. Embrace the storms, for they unveil the hidden gems within your relationship. As Christian married couples, we are called to love unconditionally, to extend forgiveness and grace, and to seek God's guidance in every step of our journey. It is within the challenging moments that our faith is tested, and through perseverance, we emerge stronger and more steadfast in our love for one another. So, the next time a disagreement arises, view it as a stepping stone towards a deeper connection with your spouse, a chance to embrace vulnerability, and an opportunity to fortify the foundation of your marriage. Hardships may shake us, but they will also shape us into the couple God intended us to be. In every hardship lies a blessing, waiting to be discovered. May we have the courage to embrace the storms, knowing that through them, we will find the profound beauty and strength that comes from weathering the challenges together.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Fighting and disagreements often reveal the vulnerabilities and weaknesses within a relationship. They expose the deep-seated fears, insecurities, and unmet needs that silently linger beneath the surface. By acknowledging and addressing these issues, couples can embark on a transformative journey toward healing and growth. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look for the blessings! Through the lens of faith, we can understand that God uses these hardships to refine us, to mold us into better versions of ourselves. Just as fire purifies gold, the difficulties we face in our marriage refine our character, deepen our empathy, and strengthen our love. In the midst of a fight, when emotions are running high, take a step back and reflect. Ask yourself, "What is this disagreement trying to teach us? How can we grow through this experience?" It is in these moments of introspection that we open the door to possibilities, to grace, and to a deeper understanding of our partner. Remember, hardships are not a reflection of weakness or failure. Rather, they are opportunities for growth, for connection, and for a deeper appreciation of the commitment we made to each other in front of God. Embrace the storms, for they unveil the hidden gems within your relationship. As Christian married couples, we are called to love unconditionally, to extend forgiveness and grace, and to seek God's guidance in every step of our journey. It is within the challenging moments that our faith is tested, and through perseverance, we emerge stronger and more steadfast in our love for one another. So, the next time a disagreement arises, view it as a stepping stone towards a deeper connection with your spouse, a chance to embrace vulnerability, and an opportunity to fortify the foundation of your marriage. Hardships may shake us, but they will also shape us into the couple God intended us to be. In every hardship lies a blessing, waiting to be discovered. May we have the courage to embrace the storms, knowing that through them, we will find the profound beauty and strength that comes from weathering the challenges together.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

'Easy' isn't the point. ~ Alveda King In a world that thrives on immediate gratification and speed, it's no wonder that family life can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

So, how can we, as parents, navigate through the tough times and perceive our situations and families in a new light?  The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace disruptive thinking! If you are always looking at your situation from a sense of doom and gloom, that's gonna keep you in the dark. So you have to be the light. 1. Cultivate Patience and Empathy In the face of family difficulties, it is crucial to take a step back and view the situation from different perspectives. Look at all sides. Practice patience and empathy, recognizing that each family member has their own challenges and emotions. By cultivating understanding and compounding it with compassion, you can create an environment that fosters love and acceptance. 2. Prioritize Open and Active Communication Effective communication lies at the heart of family relationships. Encouraging open and honest conversations provides an avenue for understanding and growth. Make space for everyone to express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns, without fear of judgment or criticism. Remember that listening actively is just as important as expressing yourself. By actively engaging in meaningful dialogue, you build trust, improve understanding, and strengthen the bonds within your family. 3. Cherish Quality Time Together The hustle and bustle of modern life often leaves little room for quality family time. However, it is essential to intentionally prioritize moments that create lasting memories and nurture familial bonds. Plan regular activities that foster togetherness, such as sharing meals, engaging in recreational activities, going on outings, or even dedicating a specific time each day to spend with your loved ones. By making quality time a priority, you reinforce the foundation of love and unity within your family. Parenthood is not meant to be a smooth journey devoid of challenges. It is within these challenges that we have the opportunity to grow, both individually and as a family unit. Embrace the extraordinary gift of family, knowing that the true goal is love. By practicing patience, empathy, open communication, and prioritizing quality time, you lay the groundwork for a resilient and harmonious family dynamic that can overcome any obstacle. Family is indeed the blessed burden that shapes us and teaches us the essence of unconditional love. Embrace the challenges, for within them lie transformative opportunities that will strengthen the bond with your loved ones and create a lasting legacy of love and unity. Remember, family is not meant to be easy. And that's precisely why it's so worth it.   "Be present. Be incredible.

And it starts at the beginning. Too often, we allow external circumstances to dictate our moods and shape our experiences. We let the traffic jam, the unfriendly coworker, or even the weather dampen our spirits. But what if I told you that you have the ability to take control of your day and set the tone for success? It all starts with a statement, a declaration of intent that you make to yourself. When you stamp your day with a statement, you send a powerful message that you are in charge. You are no longer a passive observer, but an active participant in your own every day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stamp your day with a statement! Each morning, as you open your eyes and greet the day, take a moment and set an intention for the day ahead. Close your eyes and envision how you want your day to unfold. Visualize yourself tackling tasks with confidence, interacting with others with kindness and compassion, and embracing challenges as opportunities for growth. This statement is not just a fleeting thought but a promise you make to yourself. It serves as a reminder of your inner strength and resilience. For some, it might be a prayer to God to keep you going. It becomes your guiding light, the heartbeat of your day, helping you navigate through the turbulent waters of life. Throughout the day, when faced with obstacles or setbacks, remind yourself of that statement. Let it be your anchor, grounding you in the belief that you have the power to overcome any hurdle that comes your way. Embrace each new experience as an opportunity to learn, grow, and prove to yourself that you are capable of greatness. Stamping your day with a statement is not about denying the existence of challenges or pretending that everything is perfect. It is about adopting a mindset of positivity and proactivity. It's about choosing to focus on the things you can control rather than dwelling on those you can't. So, my friend, as you step out into the world today, remember that you have the power to shape your own story. Choose to stamp your day with a statement that reflects your strength, resilience, and determination. Let it be a daily reminder that you are the author of your own story, and greatness is within your reach. With every step you take, with every decision you make, let your statement reverberate through your actions. Think of it as the vibrato of your day. Prove to yourself and to the world that you are a force to be reckoned with. Embrace the challenges, seize the opportunities, and make each moment count. Today, take the reins of your day and leave your mark. Stamp your day with a statement.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Buckle up– you can because you can't. Now, I know that sounds a little backward. Yet, that means you might actually remember it, somewhat like my band director in high school. He never told us to be there at an even time like 4:45 pm. It was 4:47 pm or 4:53 pm. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You can because you can't. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to feel defeated when it comes to healthy living. The endless to-do lists, demanding work schedules, and never-ending responsibilities often leave us feeling overwhelmed, causing us to focus on what we can't do rather than what we can. But what if we flipped the script and realized that we can because we can't? So, despite your limitations, busyness, and challenges, live boldly! The K.I.S.S. ~ Live boldly! 1. What matters most to you that you can do? Instead of dwelling on what can't be done, prioritize what matters to you as an essential part of your daily routine. Allocate time for activities that rejuvenate and refresh you. This could include exercising, going for a walk in nature, enjoying a relaxing bath, meditation, or even simply taking a few moments to breathe deeply and clear your mind. By making self-care a non-negotiable aspect of your life, you enable yourself to face challenges with renewed energy and a positive mindset. 2. What can you sustain now? Rather than fixating on drastic lifestyle changes that may seem unachievable, focus on making small, sustainable changes that align with your individual circumstances. Start by identifying one aspect of your lifestyle that could use improvement, such as incorporating more vegetables into your meals or finding 15 minutes each day for physical activity. By making achievable goals and gradual adjustments, you create a pathway to long-term success, enhancing your overall well-being without feeling overwhelmed or deprived. 3. What can you let go of now? Sometimes, we stack our schedules so we don't have to make changes or do something different. Change is hard; but healthy living is priceless. What do you need to let go of, and that includes excuses, feelings, activities, and commitments? Once you figure out what those are, then be done. Don't give it another thought.

Buckle up– you can because you can't. Now, I know that sounds a little backward. Yet, that means you might actually remember it, somewhat like my band director in high school. He never told us to be there at an even time like 4:45 pm. It was 4:47 pm or 4:53 pm. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You can because you can't. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to feel defeated when it comes to healthy living. The endless to-do lists, demanding work schedules, and never-ending responsibilities often leave us feeling overwhelmed, causing us to focus on what we can't do rather than what we can. But what if we flipped the script and realized that we can because we can't? So, despite your limitations, busyness, and challenges, live boldly! The K.I.S.S. ~ Live boldly! 1. What matters most to you that you can do? Instead of dwelling on what can't be done, prioritize what matters to you as an essential part of your daily routine. Allocate time for activities that rejuvenate and refresh you. This could include exercising, going for a walk in nature, enjoying a relaxing bath, meditation, or even simply taking a few moments to breathe deeply and clear your mind. By making self-care a non-negotiable aspect of your life, you enable yourself to face challenges with renewed energy and a positive mindset. 2. What can you sustain now? Rather than fixating on drastic lifestyle changes that may seem unachievable, focus on making small, sustainable changes that align with your individual circumstances. Start by identifying one aspect of your lifestyle that could use improvement, such as incorporating more vegetables into your meals or finding 15 minutes each day for physical activity. By making achievable goals and gradual adjustments, you create a pathway to long-term success, enhancing your overall well-being without feeling overwhelmed or deprived. 3. What can you let go of now? Sometimes, we stack our schedules so we don't have to make changes or do something different. Change is hard; but healthy living is priceless. What do you need to let go of, and that includes excuses, feelings, activities, and commitments? Once you figure out what those are, then be done. Don't give it another thought. That's wasting your valuable time that needs to be used on what you can do. In a world that often reminds you of what you can't do, it's important to remember that you can because you can't. You can have a life of health! Don't let the busyness and limitations of life hold you back from living your life to the fullest. Embrace the power of what you can do, and watch as your confidence and well-being soar. Start today, and begin living a life full of health; you can because you can't.   "Be present. Be incredible.

If you think doubt defines you, then turn doubt into determination. Doubts can most certainly hold you back from living the life you desire. But you don't have to fall into that trap. You are seen and heard. You are not alone in your struggles, and you will rise above the doubt and ignite the flame of determination within you.

It is true that doubt can be overwhelming, but remember... "Doubt is a feeling, not a reflection of your capabilities or worth." ~ Kristianne Wargo Doubt is a companion that we all encounter along the journey of life, and it is in how we respond to it that we find our true strength. One of the first steps in turning doubt into determination is to acknowledge your doubts and fears. It takes courage to face them head-on, but by doing so, you are taking control of your own narrative. Embrace the fact that doubt is a natural part of growth and progress. It signifies that you are pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone, and that is where true transformation occurs. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn doubt into determination! Be patient with yourself. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither are dreams achieved overnight. Understand that the path to success is rarely linear; it is filled with twists, turns, and unexpected obstacles. However, each setback is an opportunity for a comeback; growth and learning. Embrace the journey, even when it feels challenging or uncertain. Trust that every step you take, no matter how small, is propelling you forward towards your dreams. Remember, determination is not a one-time decision; it is a daily commitment, moment by moment. Even on days when doubt looms large, remind yourself of your purpose and why you started on this path in the first place. Surround yourself with a support system of like-minded individuals who believe in your potential. Seek inspiration from others who have faced adversity and emerged victorious. Let their stories light the way and fuel your fire. It is important to celebrate your wins, no matter how small they may seem. Recognize and acknowledge your progress, for it is a testament to your resilience and determination. Each milestone reached is a stepping stone towards greatness. Allow yourself to revel in your achievements, no matter how humble, and use them as fuel to propel you forward. Finally, embrace the power of self-belief. Doubt may seep into your mind, attempting to diminish your self-confidence. However, remember that belief in yourself is the antidote to doubt. Nurture your self-belief by affirming your strengths and acknowledging past successes. Cultivate a positive mindset and surround yourself with positivity in all aspects of your life. As we journey through life, doubt may attempt to slow us down, but remember that it is within our power to rise above it. Take AIM!! "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Stay the course, be patient, and let determination guide your way.

What you think about you bring about. Thoughts are telling. Life can be overwhelming with the constant flurry of everyday activities. It's no wonder that we often find ourselves feeling lost and uncertain. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But then, you add your thoughts into the mix, and it should be the sweetest thing of all. Yet-- it's far from that. Amidst the chaos, you are drowned in negative thoughts, even though you may have had a few good ones along the way. It's always the failure that's sticky, just like that piece of gum on the sidewalk. You step in it, and it's stuck until a lot of peanut butter is used. Words have power. And those words are even more powerful the more you replay them in your head. The battle of the mind is real. And if you genuinely want to get to the other side of where you are now, you have to change your thoughts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Change your thoughts! But come on-- it's easier said than done. However, it can be done! Now, there are CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) techniques. But I want you not to overthink everything. The key is to do it. Change your thoughts. 1. The Mindset Shift Shuffle: Picture yourself dancing away your negative thoughts and replacing them with a vibrant rhythm of positivity. Sounds intriguing, doesn't it? That's what the Mindset Shift Shuffle is all about! Whenever you catch yourself immersed in negativity, hit the pause button. Visualize yourself on a dance floor, stepping away from each negative thought and embracing positive ones instead. Spot, Stop, and Swap. You could even groove to your favorite tunes! This technique not only distracts your mind but also infuses the process with a delightful playfulness that transforms changing thought patterns into an enjoyable experience. 2. Gratitude Graffiti: It's no secret that practicing gratitude holds tremendous power in combatting negative thinking. Let's take it up a notch with Gratitude Graffiti! Grab some colorful markers or sticky notes and transform your environment. Write down things you're grateful for in prominent spots around your home or workspace. Be it your bathroom mirror, refrigerator, or computer monitor – each time your eyes come across these gratitude messages, pause and reflect on the positive aspects of your life. These visible reminders rewire your brain, shifting your focus to the good and effortlessly breaking the cycle of negative thoughts. Get ready to cultivate a mindset brimming with appreciation and contentment. 3. Connect the Dots: The key here is reframing and reprogramming your thought patterns. Negative thoughts often entwine themselves intricately, making it challenging to break free. But fear not – all you need to do is connect the dots. Start by pinpointing one area of concern, a negative thought. Then, unravel the web of negative thoughts. I would encourage you to write it on a piece of paper to see the whole process in front of you. Be sure to explore every related aspect and delve into the intricacies. Once you have a clear visual representation, identify a positive and empowering statement or comeback that serves as a direct counter to each negative thought or aspect. Memorize them and repeat them whenever negativity resurfaces. Allow these powerful words to overshadow the negativity, gradually rewiring your mindset. Watch as your self-belief soars higher with every repetition. Remember, altering negative thought patterns requires patience, commitment, and self-kindness. Practice these techniques regularly, letting them become second nature. With the Mindset Shift Shuffle, Gratitude Graffiti, and Connect the Dots by your side, you possess practical and memorable tools to conquer negative thoughts and discover that harmony within yourself. Believe in who you are becoming.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

What you think about you bring about. Thoughts are telling. Life can be overwhelming with the constant flurry of everyday activities. It's no wonder that we often find ourselves feeling lost and uncertain. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But then, you add your thoughts into the mix, and it should be the sweetest thing of all. Yet-- it's far from that. Amidst the chaos, you are drowned in negative thoughts, even though you may have had a few good ones along the way. It's always the failure that's sticky, just like that piece of gum on the sidewalk. You step in it, and it's stuck until a lot of peanut butter is used. Words have power. And those words are even more powerful the more you replay them in your head. The battle of the mind is real. And if you genuinely want to get to the other side of where you are now, you have to change your thoughts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Change your thoughts! But come on-- it's easier said than done. However, it can be done! Now, there are CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) techniques. But I want you not to overthink everything. The key is to do it. Change your thoughts. 1. The Mindset Shift Shuffle: Picture yourself dancing away your negative thoughts and replacing them with a vibrant rhythm of positivity. Sounds intriguing, doesn't it? That's what the Mindset Shift Shuffle is all about! Whenever you catch yourself immersed in negativity, hit the pause button. Visualize yourself on a dance floor, stepping away from each negative thought and embracing positive ones instead. Spot, Stop, and Swap. You could even groove to your favorite tunes! This technique not only distracts your mind but also infuses the process with a delightful playfulness that transforms changing thought patterns into an enjoyable experience. 2. Gratitude Graffiti: It's no secret that practicing gratitude holds tremendous power in combatting negative thinking. Let's take it up a notch with Gratitude Graffiti! Grab some colorful markers or sticky notes and transform your environment. Write down things you're grateful for in prominent spots around your home or workspace. Be it your bathroom mirror, refrigerator, or computer monitor – each time your eyes come across these gratitude messages, pause and reflect on the positive aspects of your life. These visible reminders rewire your brain, shifting your focus to the good and effortlessly breaking the cycle of negative thoughts. Get ready to cultivate a mindset brimming with appreciation and contentment. 3. Connect the Dots: The key here is reframing and reprogramming your thought patterns. Negative thoughts often entwine themselves intricately, making it challenging to break free. But fear not – all you need to do is connect the dots. Start by pinpointing one area of concern, a negative thought. Then, unravel the web of negative thoughts. I would encourage you to write it on a piece of paper to see the whole process in front of you. Be sure to explore every related aspect and delve into the intricacies. Once you have a clear visual representation, identify a positive and empowering statement or comeback that serves as a direct counter to each negative thought or aspect. Memorize them and repeat them whenever negativity resurfaces. Allow these powerful words to overshadow the negativity, gradually rewiring your mindset. Watch as your self-belief soars higher with every repetition. Remember, altering negative thought patterns requires patience, commitment, and self-kindness. Practice these techniques regularly, letting them become second nature.

Stop looking side to side and look up! With God, all things are possible. In life's most trying moments, it's easy to feel as though every step forward brings two steps back. But I want to remind you today that there is hope. Yes, even in the midst of impossibility, there is hope. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Take a moment and let those words settle deep within your soul. They carry within them a transformative power that can redefine your perspective and infuse you with unwavering hope. When Jesus made this statement, he was not uttering mere platitudes or hollow promises. He was revealing a fundamental truth that possesses the ability to transcend earthly limitations.

Sometimes, the magnitude of our circumstances eclipses our view of God's mighty hand. We may find ourselves overwhelmed, gripped by fear, and robbed of hope. However, let it be known that God is not confined by human understanding or restricted by earthly constraints. His power transcends our comprehension and is capable of bringing about healing, restoration, and peace. In the face of life's challenges, I implore you to lean on God.

Every marriage deserves to have a partnership that encourages each other to reach for the stars; everything they could dream of. But that can't happen unless you create together. 1.

Through open communication, you can actively contribute to your spouse's journey towards realizing their dreams. 2. Offer Unwavering Support: Support comes in many forms, and as a spouse, it is vital to be their biggest cheerleader. Be present during both successes and setbacks, offering words of encouragement and celebrating milestones. Be proactive in helping your partner overcome obstacles by providing emotional, physical, and practical assistance when needed. Encourage them to take calculated risks and step outside their comfort zone. Understand that their dreams may require sacrifices, and be willing to make adjustments to accommodate their pursuits. By offering unwavering support, you create an environment where your spouse feels valued, empowered, and motivated to chase their dreams. 3. Collaborate and Co-Create: True partnership involves actively participating in your spouse's dreams. Find ways to support your partner by collaborating and co-creating with them.

How do you spend time with the family? Many people are quick to answer the question in a way of activities and the comings and goings. But very few are direct about how they are interacting with their family, truly "spending" time with the family. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You see, "spending" is a word that is a little complicated. It can refer to how you use your money, or to show the activity in which someone is engaged or the place where they are living over a period of time. Now, you can combine the definitions to the point of engagement. Whether it's money or people, when you spend time you there is a cost, good or bad. You can choose to spend money the wrong way, just as you can choose to spend time the wrong way. As parents, we have the responsibility to make sure that the family is built on a strong foundation and bonds are created. And that comes with spending time together. But it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with activities, movies, school outings, or even family meals. How you spend time with family needs to include choose, connect, and communicate. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose, connect, and communicate!   Spending time together involves setting aside dedicated moments to bond, connect, and strengthen the relationships within the family.  Now you can most certainly enjoy time together by going to a movie, but what is happening before and after? Those conversations and interactions are key.  Mom (and Dad), we have to be intentional about staying in step with our kiddos so they know we are always for them. You don't want to use activities to be an easy way out so you don't have your emotional cord pulled. But by creating experiences that last a lifetime, those are the intimate moments that solidify your family; deep conversations, once-in-a-lifetime experiences, and an openness to share and be vulnerable.  1. Choose The act of choosing to spend quality time together as a family is an intentional step towards building deeper connections. Establishing regular family rituals creates a sense of belonging and provides opportunities for meaningful engagement. Choose rituals that resonate with your family's values and interests. It could be a weekly game night, a monthly volunteering activity, or a daily gratitude sharing session. By consciously choosing to prioritize these rituals, you demonstrate to your children that they are cherished, loved, and an essential part of your life, fostering a strong sense of security and identity. "Choose this day whom you will serve... But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." - Joshua 24:15 2. Connect Meaningful connections blossom when we actively engage in heart-to-heart conversations with our children. Set aside dedicated times to have open, honest, and deep discussions. Create a safe space where your child feels comfortable sharing their thoughts, fears, dreams, and joys. Be present during these conversations, giving your undivided attention. Practice active listening and ask open-ended questions that encourage reflection and self-discovery. By nurturing these genuine connections, you lay the foundation for a lifelong bond built on empathy, understanding, and unwavering love. "Let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance." - Proverbs 1:5 3. Communicate Communication goes beyond words; it involves actively teaching and learning alongside your children. Engage in joint activities that foster growth, self-expression, and skill development. It could be cooking together, engaging in creative arts, or tackling a DIY project. These shared experiences create opportunities for collaboration, problem-solving, and mutual understanding. As you communicate through these activities, you pass on values, life lessons, and practical knowledge while discovering unique aspects of your child's personality and potential. Embrace the beauty of this reciprocal exchange, as both teacher and student, fostering a deep bond and an environment of continual growth. "Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up." - Deuteronomy 11:19 Remember, spending time together as a family is not just about the activities or meals shared, but about knowing, loving, and guiding your children toward embracing their true potential and who they are becoming. By choosing intentional rituals, connecting through heartfelt conversations, and fostering a culture of continuous communication, you create a sacred space where your family can grow, thrive, and embark on the beautiful journey of becoming who they were created to be.

How do you spend time with the family? Many people are quick to answer the question in a way of activities and the comings and goings. But very few are direct about how they are interacting with their family, truly "spending" time with the family. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It can refer to how you use your money, or to show the activity in which someone is engaged or the place where they are living over a period of time. Now, you can combine the definitions to the point of engagement. Whether it's money or people, when you spend time you there is a cost, good or bad. You can choose to spend money the wrong way, just as you can choose to spend time the wrong way. As parents, we have the responsibility to make sure that the family is built on a strong foundation and bonds are created. And that comes with spending time together. But it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with activities, movies, school outings, or even family meals. How you spend time with family needs to include choose, connect, and communicate.

Sometimes, life throws challenges your way that seem insurmountable. You find yourself standing on the edge of the glory, hesitating to take that first step. The fear of getting burned, the fear of failure, it all consumes you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But deep inside, you know that you cannot just stand still forever. You must find the courage to walk through the fire, face your fears head-on, and come out stronger on the other side. In this journey called life, we often underestimate ourselves and what we are capable of. We doubt our abilities, question our strength, and wonder if we have what it takes to overcome the trials that come our way. We forget that within us lies an untapped well of resilience and determination, waiting to be unleashed. However, it is important to remember that we do not have to face these challenges alone. With God on your side, nothing is impossible. It is through His strength that you can find the courage deep within yourself to face whatever comes your way. Yet, as you know, walking through the fire requires a willingness to do the hard stuff. It demands a commitment to push beyond your comfort zone and embrace the discomfort that comes with growth. It requires you to endure more than you ever thought possible. But in that pain and struggle, you discover your true strength. The K.I.S.S. ~ Walk through the fire! The journey may not be easy. There will be moments when you feel like giving up, moments when you question if it's worth it. But it is in these moments that you must remind yourself of your purpose, your dreams, and the person you are becoming. It is in these moments that you must find the resolve to keep moving forward. You make a decision, moment by moment, to create your now. As you walk through the fire, it teaches you patience. It shows you that great things take time and that success is not always immediate. So, stay the course, even when the path seems long and uncertain. Trust that each step you take brings you closer to your destination, even if you cannot see it yet. Strength is not just about being physically powerful; it is about having the mental and emotional fortitude to withstand the flames. It is about being resilient in the face of adversity and finding the inner grit to keep going, even when everything seems against you. The walk through the fire tests and strengthens your character, shaping you into the person you were created to become. Imagine, for a moment, emerging from the ashes after the walk through the fire. There, you find a renewed sense of purpose and self-belief. You realize that you are capable of so much more than you ever thought. You have conquered your fears, overcome obstacles, and proven to yourself that you are unstoppable. So, if you find yourself standing on the edge of glory, remember that within you lies the power to walk through the fire.    "Be present. Be incredible.

In an era of overwhelming information and countless options, it's no wonder that choosing what's right for you when it comes to healthy living can be a daunting task.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, by following a few simple steps, you can tame the confusion and declutter the myriad of options. 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities Before diving into the world of healthy living, take the time to clarify your own goals and priorities. What does healthy living mean to you? Is it about weight management, wanting to boost energy levels, reducing stress, or simply feeling better overall? Identifying your personal objectives will help you focus on the areas that matter most to you. Conduct some self-reflection and write down your goals to gain clarity. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources With the internet inundated with health-related information, it's crucial to refer to credible sources and experts in the field. Invest time in conducting research, exploring well-established journals, and seeking evidence-based information. Look for trusted health websites, reputable nutritionists, qualified fitness trainers, and certified professionals who can guide you in making informed choices. By relying on validated sources, you can better discern which options align with your goals and are supported by scientific evidence. 3. Listen to Your Body and Responsiveness One size doesn't fit all when it comes to healthy living. Every individual is unique, and what works for someone else may not work for you. Embrace the concept of bio-individuality, which recognizes that each person has specific nutritional, exercise, and lifestyle needs. Pay attention to how your body responds to different choices and be open to making adjustments along the way. Experiment with various diets, exercise routines, and wellness practices, and be mindful of how they make you feel. Journaling your experiences and tracking progress can provide valuable insights. Now, let's put this into practice. The K.I.S.S. ~ Put this into practice! Here are examples of how the three steps can be applied to nutrition, exercise, and sleep: Nutrition: 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities: If your goal is to improve your digestion and overall gut health, you may prioritize incorporating more fiber-rich foods into your diet and reducing processed foods. Identifying this goal can help you focus on foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and probiotics that support gut health. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources: While researching, you may come across credible sources suggesting the benefits of a Mediterranean-style diet for heart health. Armed with this information, you can explore Mediterranean recipes and consult with a registered dietitian to customize the diet to your preferences and needs. 3. Listen to Your Body and Responsiveness: Pay attention to how your body responds to certain foods. For example, if you discover that dairy causes digestive discomfort or inflammation for you, you can try alternative options such as plant-based milks or probiotic-rich yogurts and observe if the symptoms improve. Exercise: 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities: If your goal is to increase strength and muscle tone, you might prioritize resistance training exercises that target different muscle groups. Setting this as your priority will help you design a workout routine that includes weight lifting, bodyweight exercises, or using resistance bands. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources: Research might lead you to discover the benefits of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) for improving cardiovascular fitness. In this case, you can explore HIIT workouts and consult with a fitness professional to create a plan that suits your fitness level and goals. 3. Listen to Your Body and Responsiveness: Pay attention to how your body feels during and after different workouts. If you find that high-impact workouts like running cause joint discomfort, you can experiment with low-impact exercises like swimming or cycling. Adapt your routine based on your body's responses, ensuring you enjoy the exercises you choose. Sleep: 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities: If your goal is to improve sleep quality and wake up feeling more rested, you might prioritize establishing a consistent sleep routine and creating a sleep-friendly environment. This could include setting regular bedtimes, reducing exposure to electronic devices before sleep, and creating a soothing atmosphere in your bedroom. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources: Research on sleep hygiene practices may highlight the importance of avoiding caffeine and nicotine close to bedtime. Armed with this knowledge, you can regulate your caffeine intake and adopt relaxation techniques, such as reading or listening to calming music before bed, to promote better sleep. 3. Listen to Your Body and Responsiveness: Pay attention to how different habits and practices affect your sleep. For instance, if you notice that consuming alcohol before bed disrupts your sleep, you can try reducing or avoiding it to evaluate if your quality of sleep improves. Regularly assess your sleep patterns and adjust accordingly to meet your individual needs. Remember, you have got to personalize your choices based on your own goals, listening to your body, and seeking professional advice when needed. Choosing what's right for you in the realm of healthy living can be challenging amidst the sea of confusion. By starting with self-reflection, conducting research from credible sources, and tuning into your body's responsiveness, you can navigate the noise and find a personalized approach that aligns with your goals and priorities. Healthy living is a daily decision that boosts your journey along the way, and what matters most is finding a sustainable lifestyle that supports your overall well-being.   "Be present.

In an era of overwhelming information and countless options, it's no wonder that choosing what's right for you when it comes to healthy living can be a daunting task.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, by following a few simple steps, you can tame the confusion and declutter the myriad of options. 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities Before diving into the world of healthy living, take the time to clarify your own goals and priorities. What does healthy living mean to you? Is it about weight management, wanting to boost energy levels, reducing stress, or simply feeling better overall? Identifying your personal objectives will help you focus on the areas that matter most to you. Conduct some self-reflection and write down your goals to gain clarity. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources With the internet inundated with health-related information, it's crucial to refer to credible sources and experts in the field. Invest time in conducting research, exploring well-established journals, and seeking evidence-based information. Look for trusted health websites, reputable nutritionists, qualified fitness trainers, and certified professionals who can guide you in making informed choices. By relying on validated sources, you can better discern which options align with your goals and are supported by scientific evidence. 3. Listen to Your Body and Responsiveness One size doesn't fit all when it comes to healthy living. Every individual is unique, and what works for someone else may not work for you. Embrace the concept of bio-individuality, which recognizes that each person has specific nutritional, exercise, and lifestyle needs. Pay attention to how your body responds to different choices and be open to making adjustments along the way. Experiment with various diets, exercise routines, and wellness practices, and be mindful of how they make you feel. Journaling your experiences and tracking progress can provide valuable insights. Now, let's put this into practice. The K.I.S.S. ~ Put this into practice! Here are examples of how the three steps can be applied to nutrition, exercise, and sleep: Nutrition: 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities: If your goal is to improve your digestion and overall gut health, you may prioritize incorporating more fiber-rich foods into your diet and reducing processed foods. Identifying this goal can help you focus on foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and probiotics that support gut health. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources: While researching, you may come across credible sources suggesting the benefits of a Mediterranean-style diet for heart health. Armed with this information, you can explore Mediterranean recipes and consult with a registered dietitian to customize the diet to your preferences and needs. 3. Listen to Your Body and Responsiveness: Pay attention to how your body responds to certain foods. For example, if you discover that dairy causes digestive discomfort or inflammation for you, you can try alternative options such as plant-based milks or probiotic-rich yogurts and observe if the symptoms improve. Exercise: 1. Define Your Goals and Priorities: If your goal is to increase strength and muscle tone, you might prioritize resistance training exercises that target different muscle groups. Setting this as your priority will help you design a workout routine that includes weight lifting, bodyweight exercises, or using resistance bands. 2. Conduct Research and Seek Credible Sources: Research might lead you to discover the benefits of High-Intensity...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1956</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,fitness,forgiveness,gratitude,habits,happiness,health,joy,leadership,lifestyle,mindset,nutrition,presence,purpose,relationships,routines,transformation,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/9b6d1bfdfa570ef7eb4841b8e767d97f.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3173 Smile Your Woes Away</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3173-smile-your-woes-away--57039786</link><description><![CDATA[A smile seems so simple, doesn't it?

If you are seeking to break free from your limiting thoughts that hold you back, transform your mindset. In the journey of life, it's easy to get set in our ways. We become comfortable with the familiar, and change can seem daunting. But if you're seeking personal growth and aiming to create a better future for yourself, it's essential to break free from the limitations of your current mindset. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You must break the chains that imprison your progress. Every day, you are either moving forward or backward. You aren't stagnant, or you're dead. Therefore, you have to bite the bullet and change something.  Something has to give. Your dreams or your mindset? So, if you're ready to transform your mindset, turn it around. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn around your mindset! You gotta go to the dark side– meaning, do something out of the norm. You need to embrace the positive and see the possibilities even before they happen. And that comes by taking one step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Embrace a Positive Outlook: It all begins with changing your perspective. In a world that often emphasizes negativity, it can be challenging to stay positive. However, research has shown that cultivating a positive mindset not only enhances overall well-being but also paves the way for success. Psychologist Barbara Fredrickson suggests that positivity opens our minds, broadens our perspective, and enables us to think creatively, fostering resilience and adaptability in the face of challenges. To embrace a positive outlook, focus on gratitude and appreciation. Take a few moments each day to reflect on the things you are grateful for, no matter how small they may seem. Surround yourself with positive influences, whether it's reading inspirational quotes, listening to uplifting music, or engaging with encouraging individuals. Choose to see the silver lining in every situation, as embracing a positive mindset acts as a catalyst for personal growth and attracts more positivity into your life. 2. Challenge Limiting Beliefs: Our beliefs shape our reality and influence our actions. Sometimes, we unknowingly hold onto limiting beliefs that hinder our progress and prevent us from reaching our true potential. To turn around your mindset, it's crucial to identify and challenge these beliefs. Start by becoming aware of the negative self-talk that exists within you. Notice the moments when self-doubt or fear creeps in and replace those thoughts with positive affirmations. Psychologist Carol Dweck's research on the growth mindset suggests that by viewing failures and setbacks as opportunities for learning and growth, we can unlock our potential and overcome challenges with resilience and determination. Consider seeking out new experiences and stepping outside of your comfort zone. By exposing yourself to different perspectives and challenging your beliefs, you open yourself up to new possibilities and personal growth. 3. Practice Mindfulness and Self-Reflection: In today's fast-paced world, we often find ourselves living on autopilot, rushing from one task to another without truly being present. Mindfulness is the practice of being fully engaged in the present moment without judgment. By cultivating mindfulness, we can break free from the repetitive and unproductive thought patterns that may be holding us back. Take time each day for self-reflection, whether through meditation, journaling, or simply finding a quiet space to relax and be present. Use this time to observe your thoughts, feelings, and reactions without judgment. Notice any negative patterns that arise and consciously choose to replace them with more empowering thoughts. By practicing mindfulness, you develop a greater awareness of your mindset and gain the ability to make intentional changes. As Mahatma Gandhi once said, "Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, and your values become your destiny." Turning around your mindset is not a one-time event but an ongoing process. It requires patience, persistence, and self-compassion. By embracing a positive outlook, challenging limiting beliefs, and practicing mindfulness and self-reflection, you pave the way for a brighter and more fulfilling future. Now is the time to take the first step towards creating your now and transforming your life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Embrace a Positive Outlook: It all begins with changing your perspective. In a world that often emphasizes negativity, it can be challenging to stay positive. However, research has shown that cultivating a positive mindset not only enhances overall well-being but also paves the way for success. Psychologist Barbara Fredrickson suggests that positivity opens our minds, broadens our perspective, and enables us to think creatively, fostering resilience and adaptability in the face of challenges. To embrace a positive outlook, focus on gratitude and appreciation. Take a few moments each day to reflect on the things you are grateful for, no matter how small they may seem. Surround yourself with positive influences, whether it's reading inspirational quotes, listening to uplifting music, or engaging with encouraging individuals. Choose to see the silver lining in every situation, as embracing a positive mindset acts as a catalyst for personal growth and attracts more positivity into your life. 2. Challenge Limiting Beliefs: Our beliefs shape our reality and influence our actions. Sometimes, we unknowingly hold onto limiting beliefs that hinder our progress and prevent us from reaching our true potential. To turn around your mindset, it's crucial to identify and challenge these beliefs. Start by becoming aware of the negative self-talk that exists within you. Notice the moments when self-doubt or fear creeps in and replace those thoughts with positive affirmations. Psychologist Carol Dweck's research on the growth mindset suggests that by viewing failures and setbacks as opportunities for learning and growth, we can unlock our potential and overcome challenges with resilience and determination. Consider seeking out new experiences and stepping outside of your comfort zone. By exposing yourself to different perspectives and challenging your beliefs, you open yourself up to new possibilities and personal growth. 3. Practice Mindfulness and Self-Reflection: In today's fast-paced world, we often find ourselves living on autopilot, rushing from one task to another without truly being present. Mindfulness is the practice of being fully engaged in the present moment without judgment. By cultivating mindfulness, we can break free from the repetitive and unproductive thought patterns that may be holding us back. Take time each day for self-reflection, whether through meditation, journaling, or simply finding a quiet space to relax and be present. Use this time to observe your thoughts, feelings, and reactions without judgment. Notice any negative patterns that arise and...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1305</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,change,communication,entrepreneurs,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,purpose,relationships,thoughts,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/330018ffe6a041311461416bdc61b0c3.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3171 Embrace Agape Love</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3171-embrace-agape-love--57011577</link><description><![CDATA[How are you at extending patience, kindness, and forgiveness? Each of us is called to love unconditionally, but where are you showing that in your life? Transform your life and others as you embrace agape love. In today's world, love often seems transactional and self-centered, lacking the depth and selflessness we yearn for. However, amidst this backdrop, there exists a timeless standard set by Paul in his first letter to the Corinthians. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Paul's description of love goes beyond mere romance; it embodies agape love, the same selfless love that God has for us. This concept challenges us to elevate our human capacities for patience, kindness, and forgiveness, inviting us to step outside the realm of conditional love and into a realm where love becomes a choice rather than just a reaction. By embracing this profound love, you become a conduit of divine grace, embodying God's kindness and patience as an ambassador of love in a world hungry for it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace agape love!   Paul outlines the characteristics of agape love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-5. So, he writes, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs." These words provide a roadmap for you and me to understand and embody this unique love in our daily lives. Patience and Kindness True agape love demands patience—a virtue often lacking in our fast-paced world. It calls on us to suspend judgment and extend understanding, offering a safe space for others to grow. Likewise, kindness acts as the cornerstone of agape love. It propels us to extend compassion and empathy without expecting anything in return, allowing love to flourish unconditionally. Forgiveness and Letting Go Agape love also teaches us the power of forgiveness. By releasing grudges and forgiving others, we break free from the burdens that hinder our ability to love fully. Letting go of resentment and sending love instead of anger enables us to experience the transformative beauty of love. You can become an ambassador of divine love. When you embody agape love, your life becomes a testament to God's boundless love. By mirroring God's love to the world, you become channels of His grace. Your acts of kindness, patience, and forgiveness serve as a radiant beacon, illuminating the darkness and showing others the transformative potential of love. When embodying agape love, you can create waves of positive change, inspiring others to embrace this selfless love as well. In a world hungering for love, Paul's teachings on agape love stand as an eternal standard. By embracing this selfless, unconditional love, we become vehicles of divine grace, reflecting God's kindness, patience, and forgiveness to those around us. Love in its purest form is not just a transaction, but a choice we make to extend compassion and understanding without conditions. Strive to embody agape love, making it the guiding principle in your daily life. In doing so, you become an ambassador of God's eternal love, transforming lives and spreading the beauty of love in a world that needs it more than ever. Remember, agape love is not an abstract concept; it is a choice we make each day. Choose to extend patience, kindness, and forgiveness in every facet of your life, and watch as love, in its purest form, transforms you and the world that you touch. It's the journey of love and compassion. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

However, you can address the issue while strengthening your marriage. I get how life happens and seasons come and go. There might be times when you don't come together as often, or you're traveling because of your job.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But whatever the case may be, neither of you should feel like you are being ignored. That's not a marriage, let alone a relationship. Yet-- you have to remember, it's how you deal with the situation. So, if you are one who is experiencing this position in your marriage, then it's time to turn up the heat with some honest dialogue. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn the heat up with some honest dialogue! 1. Choose the Right Time and Place When expressing your concerns about feeling ignored, timing and environment are key factors. Find a calm moment when both of you can engage in an uninterrupted conversation. Ensure that you are both relaxed and receptive to discussing this sensitive matter. Trying to address the issue during moments of tension or when your spouse is preoccupied may lead to defensiveness and disagreement. Psychology Today suggests that "timing should come when both have rested, have time, and can fully engage in the discussion – and when the non-ignoring partner is well-prepared with thoughtful and constructive words." 2. Use "I" Statements Using "I" statements instead of "you" statements can help convey your concerns without putting your spouse on the defensive. "You" statements tend to sound accusatory and may lead to a counter-attack or denial. On the other hand, "I" statements express your feelings and experiences personally, reducing the potential for misunderstanding. For example, instead of saying, "You always ignore me," you can say, "I feel hurt and neglected when I don't receive your attention. It makes me question our connection and leaves me feeling unheard." According to a study published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, using "I" statements enhances communication because it allows each partner to express their feelings and experiences without sounding confrontational. 3. Offer Specific Examples and Suggest Solutions During the conversation, it's important to provide your spouse with concrete examples of when you felt ignored. Be specific about the situations, actions, or behaviors that triggered your concerns. By doing so, you help your spouse understand the impact of their actions or lack of attention. Additionally, offering potential solutions or compromises demonstrates your commitment to finding a resolution together. For instance, you could suggest designated quality time to connect with each other, setting aside distractions during meals or implementing a daily ritual, such as sharing your highlights of the day. One thing that most couples don't do anymore is to look at each other. If you don't like something that's happening in your marriage, you have to take an active role to find ways to improve your connection. Feeling ignored in a relationship can be deeply distressing. However, expressing your concerns to your spouse in a thoughtful and constructive manner can spark open dialogue and create an opportunity for you all to grow closer together.   "Be present.

How do you support your child's mental health? That is one of the most significant challenges we face today-- the mental well-being of our children. If you are trying to walk the tight rope watching your child have anxious thoughts or are depressed, you are hurting, just not in the same ways. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You have heard the saying that the most rewarding job is being a parent. It's an incredible journey filled with joy, laughter, and unconditional love. But who talks about all the struggles and troubles; the late nights wondering when they are coming home, the first love break-ups, the best friend betrayal, the late night feedings, the loss of a pet, even I'm not good enough. It presents challenges and responsibilities that can sometimes feel overwhelming. One significant challenge we face today is the increasing prevalence of mental health issues in children. Depression, anxiety, and other disorders can take a toll on our little ones, requiring us to step up our knowledge and recognize the symptoms, seek support, and provide appropriate care. If you want to help your children, love beyond your abilities. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love beyond your abilities! There's a lot of junk in the trunk for a kiddos nowadays. Peer pressure, social media, school demands, parents' expectations. All they want to do is run and hide from everything. And so there are parents who miss the signs, not because they don't love their children, they don't know what they don't know. But you can help your child when you love beyond your abilities. 1. Cultivate a Safe and Non-Judgmental Space The first step in supporting your child's mental health is to establish an environment of safety and acceptance. Create a space where they feel comfortable expressing their feelings without fear of judgment or criticism. Encourage open communication by actively listening and validating their emotions. Be empathetic and show understanding, even if you may not fully comprehend their struggles. Remember, your role as a parent is not to fix everything but to be their anchor, providing a refuge of love and support. Research indicates that expressing emotions in a safe environment can have a positive impact on mental health. Encouraging healthy emotional expression helps children develop resilience and coping mechanisms that will serve them well throughout their lives. "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." - Galatians 6:2 2. Encourage Healthy Coping Strategies Teaching children effective coping strategies is essential for their mental well-being. Help them explore activities that bring them joy and provide a sense of relief. Encourage hobbies, such as art, music, sports, or writing, that allow them to express themselves creatively. Engage in these activities together whenever possible, fostering bonding moments while promoting their emotional health. It's also essential to promote a healthy lifestyle by encouraging good nutrition, regular exercise, and quality sleep. Studies have consistently shown that exercise and physical activity have a positive impact on mental health, boosting mood and reducing stress and anxiety levels. "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own," - 1 Corinthians 6:19 3. Seek Professional Support Recognizing our limitations as parents is crucial. If you notice persistent signs of depression, anxiety, or other mental health issues in your child, it may be necessary to seek professional assistance. Remember, seeking help does not diminish your love or capabilities as a parent. It shows your dedication to ensuring your child receives the care they deserve. Consult with a qualified mental health professional who specializes in working with children and adolescents. They can provide a proper diagnosis, therapeutic interventions, and appropriate treatment plans tailored to your child's specific needs. Seeking professional support also offers an opportunity for parents to learn strategies to better assist their child's mental health. Proverbs 4:13 reminds us, "Keep hold of instruction; do not let go; guard her, for she is your life." As parents, we play a vital role in supporting our children's mental health. By creating a safe environment, encouraging healthy coping mechanisms, and seeking professional support when needed, we can nurture our children with love. Remember, you are not alone in this journey. Reach out to support networks, friends, or faith communities that can offer guidance and encouragement along the way.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How do you support your child's mental health? That is one of the most significant challenges we face today-- the mental well-being of our children. If you are trying to walk the tight rope watching your child have anxious thoughts or are depressed, you are hurting, just not in the same ways. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You have heard the saying that the most rewarding job is being a parent. It's an incredible journey filled with joy, laughter, and unconditional love. But who talks about all the struggles and troubles; the late nights wondering when they are coming home, the first love break-ups, the best friend betrayal, the late night feedings, the loss of a pet, even I'm not good enough. It presents challenges and responsibilities that can sometimes feel overwhelming. One significant challenge we face today is the increasing prevalence of mental health issues in children. Depression, anxiety, and other disorders can take a toll on our little ones, requiring us to step up our knowledge and recognize the symptoms, seek support, and provide appropriate care. If you want to help your children, love beyond your abilities. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love beyond your abilities! There's a lot of junk in the trunk for a kiddos nowadays. Peer pressure, social media, school demands, parents' expectations. All they want to do is run and hide from everything. And so there are parents who miss the signs, not because they don't love their children, they don't know what they don't know. But you can help your child when you love beyond your abilities. 1. Cultivate a Safe and Non-Judgmental Space The first step in supporting your child's mental health is to establish an environment of safety and acceptance. Create a space where they feel comfortable expressing their feelings without fear of judgment or criticism. Encourage open communication by actively listening and validating their emotions. Be empathetic and show understanding, even if you may not fully comprehend their struggles. Remember, your role as a parent is not to fix everything but to be their anchor, providing a refuge of love and support. Research indicates that expressing emotions in a safe environment can have a positive impact on mental health. Encouraging healthy emotional expression helps children develop resilience and coping mechanisms that will serve them well throughout their lives. "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." - Galatians 6:2 2. Encourage Healthy Coping Strategies Teaching children effective coping strategies is essential for their mental well-being. Help them explore activities that bring them joy and provide a sense of relief. Encourage hobbies, such as art, music, sports, or writing, that allow them to express themselves creatively. Engage in these activities together whenever possible, fostering bonding moments while promoting their emotional health. It's also essential to promote a healthy lifestyle by encouraging good nutrition, regular exercise, and quality sleep. Studies have consistently shown that exercise and physical activity have a positive impact on mental health, boosting mood and reducing stress and anxiety levels. "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own," - 1 Corinthians 6:19 3.

Your gut does tell you something good or bad. There is a link between the mind and gut that takes healthy living to a whole new level. According to Dr. Mayer's groundbreaking book, "The Mind-Gut Connection," this sensation of a "gut feeling" is more than just a metaphorical expression. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It turns out that there is a strong link between our brain and digestive system, with communication between the two capable of influencing our emotions, decision-making, and even our behavior. Today, let's explore four key insights from the book, shedding light on the fascinating world of the mind-gut connection. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unlock some gut secrets! 1. Gut Feelings Are Real The concept of gut feelings is not just a figment of our imagination. Dr. Mayer provides biological evidence to support the existence of these sensations. They are derived from the close relationship between our brain and digestive system. Whether it's the butterflies we feel when excited or the pit in our stomach when anxious, these physical sensations are influenced by our past knowledge and experiences. By understanding this, we can start to appreciate the significance of our gut feelings and learn to trust our instincts. And then what if you are one who is eating processed foods, sleeping poorly, and drinking the wrong kind of beverages too liberally? You may not be one who is in touch with your body, because you are numb. You don't get those sensations. Also, how you perceive your body is how you know your body. If you're a healthy-conscious person, then you get it more, because you're paying attention more. We are talking about a lifestyle. Not just living to live. 2. Out with the Sugar–  but Artificial Sweeteners? While many people are aware of the harmful effects of sugar on gut health, but what about artificial sweeteners? However, Dr. Mayer reveals that these highly processed substitutes can also have a negative impact. Artificial sweeteners alter the metabolic pathways in gut microbes, leading to increased production of short-chain fatty acids. These fatty acids are absorbed by the colon, providing additional calories and potentially hindering weight loss. It is crucial to be mindful of the hidden effects of artificial sweeteners and opt for natural alternatives whenever possible. 3. Change the Behavior of Your Microbiome Our gut is home to trillions of microbes that play a vital role in our overall health. While it may be challenging to alter the composition of our microbiome with fermented foods and probiotics, Dr. Mayer explains that we can still influence how the microbiome acts. By consuming foods that support gut health, such as fermented foods and probiotics, we can promote beneficial metabolites that positively impact your well-being. Think of it as transforming an army in your gut from working against you to working for you. 4. Emotional and Mental Health Matters Maintaining a healthy microbiome goes beyond just what you eat. Dr. Mayer highlights the importance of managing stress, practicing mindfulness, and being mindful of your emotions. Stressful states of mind can affect your digestive system's ability to properly process food, leading to overconsumption and potentially damaging your gut health. It is essential to foster positive emotions and create a supportive environment for your gut. By prioritizing mental health alongside a proper diet, you can work towards improving your overall well-being. "The Mind-Gut Connection" by Dr. Mayer offers profound insights into the intricate relationship between our mind and gut. This connection encompasses more than just physical sensations; it influences our emotions, decision-making, and overall health. By understanding and embracing this mind-gut connection, we can make informed choices to support our gut health and enhance our overall well-being.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It turns out that there is a strong link between our brain and digestive system, with communication between the two capable of influencing our emotions, decision-making, and even our behavior. Today, let's explore four key insights from the book, shedding light on the fascinating world of the mind-gut connection. The K.I.S.S. ~ Unlock some gut secrets! 1. Gut Feelings Are Real The concept of gut feelings is not just a figment of our imagination. Dr. Mayer provides biological evidence to support the existence of these sensations. They are derived from the close relationship between our brain and digestive system. Whether it's the butterflies we feel when excited or the pit in our stomach when anxious, these physical sensations are influenced by our past knowledge and experiences. By understanding this, we can start to appreciate the significance of our gut feelings and learn to trust our instincts. And then what if you are one who is eating processed foods, sleeping poorly, and drinking the wrong kind of beverages too liberally? You may not be one who is in touch with your body, because you are numb. You don't get those sensations. Also, how you perceive your body is how you know your body. If you're a healthy-conscious person, then you get it more, because you're paying attention more. We are talking about a lifestyle. Not just living to live. 2. Out with the Sugar–  but Artificial Sweeteners? While many people are aware of the harmful effects of sugar on gut health, but what about artificial sweeteners? However, Dr. Mayer reveals that these highly processed substitutes can also have a negative impact. Artificial sweeteners alter the metabolic pathways in gut microbes, leading to increased production of short-chain fatty acids. These fatty acids are absorbed by the colon, providing additional calories and potentially hindering weight loss. It is crucial to be mindful of the hidden effects of artificial sweeteners and opt for natural alternatives whenever possible. 3. Change the Behavior of Your Microbiome Our gut is home to trillions of microbes that play a vital role in our overall health. While it may be challenging to alter the composition of our microbiome with fermented foods and probiotics, Dr. Mayer explains that we can still influence how the microbiome acts. By consuming foods that support gut health, such as fermented foods and probiotics, we can promote beneficial metabolites that positively impact your well-being. Think of it as transforming an army in your gut from working against you to working for you. 4. Emotional and Mental Health Matters Maintaining a healthy microbiome goes beyond just what you eat. Dr. Mayer highlights the importance of managing stress, practicing mindfulness, and being mindful of your emotions. Stressful states of mind can affect your digestive system's ability to properly process food, leading to overconsumption and potentially damaging your gut health. It is essential to foster positive emotions and create a supportive environment for your gut. By prioritizing mental health alongside a proper diet, you can work towards improving your overall well-being. "The Mind-Gut Connection" by Dr. Mayer offers profound insights into the intricate relationship between our mind and gut. This connection encompasses more than just physical sensations; it influences our emotions,...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1683</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,change,digestive,exercise,fitness,food,forgiveness,gratitude,gut,happiness,health,joy,leadership,mindset,nutrition,presence,relationships,transformation,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/6560e71f94088092e8740a3df8b964c4.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3166 Walk the Path of Purpose</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3166-walk-the-path-of-purpose--56937032</link><description><![CDATA[There's a powerful truth that often slips away from our grasp, and it's this: the present moment is all we truly have. Set your worries and uncertainties aside. Today, choose to walk the path of purpose.  Because you know what truly matters is what's right in front of you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Today, I want to encourage you to let go of the weight of tomorrow and focus on the opportunities that are within your reach right now. Create your now! It's all too easy to become consumed by thoughts of what lies ahead - the distant future, the uncertain outcomes, the mountains yet to climb. But I want you to see that God has placed you here, today for a reason. In the quest for a fulfilling life, it's essential that you stay committed to the tasks and responsibilities that are laid upon you today. God created you and fashioned you on purpose, for a purpose. Your unique skills, dreams, and aspirations were entrusted to you for a reason. Your journey may seem small or mundane at times, but even the smallest steps taken in alignment with your purpose can create remarkable waves of impact. Think of the story of Moses, called to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. When God first spoke to Moses, he was a simple shepherd, tending his flock in the wilderness. Yet, in that moment, everything changed. God illuminated the purpose that lay before him, and Moses embraced it with all his heart. He didn't waste time worrying about what lay farther along the road. Instead, he took that first step, trusting that by faithfully serving in the present, the future would unfold as it should. The K.I.S.S. ~ Walk the path of purpose! Similarly, when Jesus called upon his disciples to follow him, he didn't lay out a detailed roadmap of their journey. Instead, he simply asked them to come as they were and follow him obediently. They left their nets, their security, and their comfort to venture into the unknown. Their focus was not on the uncertainties that lay ahead, but on the task at hand - to learn from their master and spread the good news. So, my friend, I urge you to stay close to what you can do today. Give your best to the tasks and responsibilities that are within your reach. Don't allow the weight of the future to hinder your progress in the present. Trust that by living purposefully today, you are aligning yourself with the incredible plan that God has for your life. When you constantly worry about what lies beyond your control, your pile of concerns only grows larger. But as you take courageous steps in the present moment, laying down foundations and seizing opportunities, doors begin to open, and close. God's promises are not reserved for a distant tomorrow; they are here, now, waiting to be embraced. Remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:34: "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." You have been given this day, this moment, to lead and make a difference. So, my friend, let go of the burdens you cannot control and focus on what you can do today. Embrace the journey and walk your path of purpose.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It requires a mindset shift, a willingness to let go of the familiar, and a flexible approach to navigate through the unknown; the art of adaptability. While change can be intimidating, learning to adapt is a superpower that can propel you forward and help you thrive even in the most uncertain times. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    How do you handle circumstances when you're not in control? When things happen, and all you can do is stand frozen? Trying to find our stride in life is a challenge. A lot of it is by trial and error. And there's nothing wrong with that. However, if you want to keep going after your calling, your dreams, and your goals, you've got to embrace the art of adaptability.  And when you do that, not only does your perspective change, but so does your opportunities. It's time to get creative. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get creative! 1. Embrace Your Mind (The Power of Mindset) In the face of change, your mindset becomes your compass. Instead of resisting or fearing the unknown, shift your perspective to view change as an opportunity for growth and learning. Recognize that change is inevitable and take control by adopting a positive and flexible mindset. Believe in your ability to adapt, and remind yourself that challenges are stepping stones towards a brighter future. Remember, you have the power to shape your reality by choosing how you perceive and respond to change. 2. Foster Resilience through Continuous Learning Adaptability is not about merely surviving change; it's about thriving in it. To build resilience, actively seek out opportunities to learn and develop new skills. Be open to acquiring knowledge and embracing new ideas. Cultivate a growth mindset that allows you to see change as a chance for personal and professional growth. Embrace curiosity and a hunger for knowledge, as these qualities will equip you to tackle any challenge that comes your way. 3. Cultivate Flexibility and Agility Flexibility is key to adaptability. Train yourself to be nimble and adjust to changing circumstances with ease. One way to do this is by practicing flexibility in your daily routines. Challenge yourself to take different routes to work, try new activities, or explore alternative solutions to problems. By exposing yourself to various situations and approaches, you become more adaptable and are better equipped to respond to unexpected changes. Embrace the unknown, and let go of the need for absolute control. Remember, the more adaptable you become, the more equipped you are to create positive outcomes in uncertain times. Adaptability is a superpower that can serve you in ways you may have never imagined. Change does not have to derail your dreams; instead, it can be the catalyst that ignites the spark within you. Let the art of adaptability explode, empowering you to rise above challenges and experience incredible growth. As the poet Rumi once wrote, "When the winds of change blow, some people build walls, while others build windmills." Embrace the windmills within you, harness the power of adaptability, and watch as you thrive amidst the uncertainties of life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. ~ Psalm 143:8 In the midst of life's storms, we can often find ourselves feeling lost, searching for guidance and reassurance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Even David, a man after God's own heart, sought daily affirmation of God's love and direction. Like him, you too can turn to your Heavenly Father, seeking His divine path in moments of doubt and uncertainty. So, as you embark on this journey, remember the powerful prayer and cry out, "God, show me the way." This plea is not a passive request, but an active declaration of your dependence on God. It signifies your willingness to act, to make decisions, and to move forward in the direction that He points to. Just as David found comfort and strength in perceiving God's love as the morning light that breaks through the darkest night, you too desire to experience His love at the start of each day. In looking at Psalm 143:8, let the words resonate deeply within your soul, reminding you of the need for God's constant love and guidance. By seeking God's love in the morning, you embody His presence, regardless of the challenges you may face. Imagine God's love as a guiding force, a compass pointing you in the right direction. With His love as your True North, you can navigate the uncertainties of life with confidence and peace. Whether you are struggling with personal setbacks, facing difficult decisions, or feeling overwhelmed by the weight of the world, God's love is ever-present, ready to illuminate the path before you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Show me the way! When you acknowledge your dependence on God and actively seek His guidance, you open yourself up to what God has in store for you.  His love is not merely a source of comfort but a catalyst for growth, transformation, and purpose. God has placed a call on your life. As you submit yourself to His will, you'll discover that His plans for you are far greater than anything we could ever imagine. In times of darkness, doubt, or pain, hold fast to David's prayer and make it your own.

Let His love be the beacon that guides you, the compass that steers you, and the pillar of strength that sustains you. In this surrender, you find freedom, purpose, and an unbreakable connection with your risen Lord and Savior. Embrace His love, for it is the key that unlocks the doors of your heart and leads you on the journey He has planned for you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Like him, you too can turn to your Heavenly Father, seeking His divine path in moments of doubt and uncertainty. So, as you embark on this journey, remember the powerful prayer and cry out, "God, show me the way." This plea is not a passive request, but an active declaration of your dependence on God. It signifies your willingness to act, to make decisions, and to move forward in the direction that He points to. Just as David found comfort and strength in perceiving God's love as the morning light that breaks through the darkest night, you too desire to experience His love at the start of each day. In looking at Psalm 143:8, let the words resonate deeply within your soul, reminding you of the need for God's constant love and guidance. By seeking God's love in the morning, you embody His presence, regardless of the challenges you may face. Imagine God's love as a guiding force, a compass pointing you in the right direction. With His love as your True North, you can navigate the uncertainties of life with confidence and peace. Whether you are struggling with personal setbacks, facing difficult decisions, or feeling overwhelmed by the weight of the world, God's love is ever-present, ready to illuminate the path before you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Show me the way! When you acknowledge your dependence on God and actively seek His guidance, you open yourself up to what God has in store for you.  His love is not merely a source of comfort but a catalyst for growth, transformation, and purpose. God has placed a call on your life. As you submit yourself to His will, you'll discover that His plans for you are far greater than anything we could ever imagine. In times of darkness, doubt, or pain, hold fast to David's prayer and make it your own.

If you want to rebuild your connection in your marriage, it just might be shaped by the bed. The demands of everyday life can take their toll, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and forgetting about our sweethearts. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, taking intentional action can help rebuild that connection and create a stronger foundation for your marriage. If you want to build a stronger connection, cozy on up. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cozy on up! 1. Prioritize Quality Time: Creating a space and time for quality moments together is essential in rejuvenating your connection. Set aside distractions such as phones, work, or other obligations and dedicate specific moments to simply being present with each other. Whether it's engaging in deep conversations, cozying up to watch a movie, or engaging in activities that bring you joy, these deliberate actions can help reignite the spark and enhance your emotional bond. 2. Intimacy Beyond Physicality: While physical intimacy plays a significant role in any romantic relationship, it's important to recognize that intimacy goes beyond just the act itself. Explore different ways to connect emotionally and spiritually in the bedroom. Holding hands, cuddling, practicing mindfulness exercises, or engaging in activities like massage can foster a deeper connection and increase feelings of intimacy. Experiment with what feels comfortable for both of you and find new ways to express your love and appreciation. 3. Open Communication: One of the most vital components of any relationship is effective communication. In the bedroom, this means creating a safe and open space to express desires, needs, and concerns. Encourage each other to share fantasies, discuss boundaries, and express any emotional or physical changes that may impact your intimacy. Honest and open communication builds trust and understanding, allowing you to navigate challenges together and strengthen your emotional connection. Rebuilding connection in a relationship takes intentional effort and a focus on creating a strong foundation. By prioritizing quality time, exploring different forms of intimacy beyond physicality, and fostering open communication, couples can reshape their marriage into the fulfilling and loving partnership they desire. Remember, rebuilding connection is a continuous journey, and by nurturing your relationship in the bedroom, you can build a stronger bond that permeates every aspect of your life.   "Be present.

The power of choices.  It's in these choices that they can bear fruit in their lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    By encouraging our children to make the right decisions, we can guide them towards a path of a better, healthier, and happier life.  There is quite a significance in making good choices, the consequences of bad choices, and then, being confident in the choices they make.  It's all in the journey of doing good.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Journey of doing good! 1. Harvest the Fruits of Good Choices It is crucial to empower our children with the understanding that choosing to do the right thing is always beneficial. Good choices yield positive outcomes that can enhance various aspects of their lives. By making decisions aligned with their values, goals, and morals, your children set themselves up for a future filled with opportunities, personal growth, and fulfillment. Emphasize the importance of integrity, kindness, and responsibility, as these virtues are the foundation for making positive choices that lead to a fruitful and purposeful life. 2. Navigate Away from Destructive Paths Children may sometimes be enticed by the allure of what seems like "fun" that arises from making questionable choices. However, it is vital to remind them of the potential consequences and long-term damage such decisions can bring. Guide them to understand that bad choices may initially appear enticing, but ultimately lead to a path of destruction, regret, and missed opportunities. By using real-life examples and engaging them in open conversations, you can help your children develop critical thinking skills that will enable them to discern between right and wrong, ensuring they make choices that align with their values and long-term well-being. 3. Encourage to Stay the Course In a world where peer pressure and societal norms can sway our children's decisions, it is essential to instill in them the importance of perseverance. Introduce them to the empowering words of the apostle Paul in Galatians 6:9 (NIV),“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." --Where he reminds believers not to become weary in doing good. Encourage our children to stay true to their values, dreams, and aspirations, even when faced with challenges or temptations. By teaching them the value of persistence and resilience, you're equipping them to overcome obstacles and create a future where they reap the rewards of their unwavering commitment to making good choices. As parents, we possess a unique opportunity to guide our children towards a fruitful and fulfilling future. By emphasizing the significance of their choices and the impact these choices can have, we empower our children to make decisions that align with their values and aspirations. Bad or wrong choices always seem easier. Encourage them to persevere and rise above the allure of immediate gratification and the ease of less work, while reminding them to stay focused on their long-term goals. Nurture an environment filled with support, understanding, and open communication, ensuring your children have the tools they need to navigate life's complexities with wisdom and integrity. Together, let us sow the seeds of good choices, enabling our children to reap the bountiful harvest of a remarkable life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Good choices yield positive outcomes that can enhance various aspects of their lives. By making decisions aligned with their values, goals, and morals, your children set themselves up for a future filled with opportunities, personal growth, and fulfillment. Emphasize the importance of integrity, kindness, and responsibility, as these virtues are the foundation for making positive choices that lead to a fruitful and purposeful life. 2. Navigate Away from Destructive Paths Children may sometimes be enticed by the allure of what seems like "fun" that arises from making questionable choices. However, it is vital to remind them of the potential consequences and long-term damage such decisions can bring. Guide them to understand that bad choices may initially appear enticing, but ultimately lead to a path of destruction, regret, and missed opportunities. By using real-life examples and engaging them in open conversations, you can help your children develop critical thinking skills that will enable them to discern between right and wrong, ensuring they make choices that align with their values and long-term well-being. 3. Encourage to Stay the Course In a world where peer pressure and societal norms can sway our children's decisions, it is essential to instill in them the importance of perseverance. Introduce them to the empowering words of the apostle Paul in Galatians 6:9 (NIV),“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." --Where he reminds believers not to become weary in doing good. Encourage our children to stay true to their values, dreams, and aspirations, even when faced with challenges or temptations. By teaching them the value of persistence and resilience, you're equipping them to overcome obstacles and create a future where they reap the rewards of their unwavering commitment to making good choices. As parents, we possess a unique opportunity to guide our children towards a fruitful and fulfilling future. By emphasizing the significance of their choices and the impact these choices can have, we empower our children to make decisions that align with their values and aspirations. Bad or wrong choices always seem easier. Encourage them to persevere and rise above the allure of immediate gratification and the ease of less work, while reminding them to stay focused on their long-term goals. Nurture an environment filled with support, understanding, and open communication, ensuring your children have the tools they need to navigate life's complexities with wisdom and integrity. Together, let us sow the seeds of good choices, enabling our children to reap the bountiful harvest of a remarkable life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It is not uncommon for you to hesitate, to question yourself, to let fear dictate your actions, or, rather, your lack thereof. Yet, in those moments of trepidation, it's easy to forget the immense potential that lies dormant within us - the potential to conquer, to achieve, to prevail. Your doubts are nothing but traitors that sabotage your chances of attaining greatness.  Shadows of doubt may appear formidable, but they are nothing more than illusions, attempting to deceive us into believing that we are not capable, not worthy, not deserving of success. However, every great achievement in human history has been born from the audacity to confront those doubts head-on, to cast them aside, and embrace the exhilarating uncertainty of taking a leap of faith. Fear is a natural instinct, deeply embedded within our primitive beings. It once protected us from dire consequences, from lurking dangers in the unknown-- the lions, and tigers and bears, OH MY!! But as humanity evolved, so too did the challenges we faced. No longer were we threatened by predatory beasts or mighty floods; our battlefields shifted to the realms of intellect, creativity, and innovation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Win by fearing to attempt! Yet, fear still clings to us, attempting to hold us back from reaching our full potential. It whispers in our ears, "What if you fail?" "What if you're not good enough?" "What if others judge you?" And in these moments, it takes a Herculean effort to push past the weight of doubt and embrace the beauty of our own capabilities. You need a football team or an army to come push past this extreme wall. You must remind yourself that fear is not a foe to be conquered but a companion to be acknowledged. It is in those moments of fear, when our hearts race and our palms sweat, that we must recognize the very essence of our humanity. For it is within the realm of fear that we discover our true potential - the strength to overcome, the resilience to persist, and the courage to grasp the opportunities that lie before us. You have that within you-- YES!! Every day!! Life is a tapestry of experiences, interwoven with both triumphs and failures. But it is in the face of fear that you find the truest measure of your character. Embracing the unknown, taking a step forward despite the uncertainties that lie ahead - that is the very essence of progress. The good we oft might win, the victories we might attain, they are inaccessible if we let fear dictate our actions. So, do not cower in the face of doubt. Do not be paralyzed by the fear of failure. Instead, honor your potential, acknowledge your doubts, and take that leap of faith in pursuit of greatness. In the end, dear friends, it is not the absence of fear that defines you, but your ability to rise above it, to harness its energy, and transform it into the fuel that propels you forward. Our doubts, indeed, are traitors, but they need not rob you of the good that awaits you. So, cast aside the shackles of fear and embark upon the journey of a lifetime. For it is in daring to attempt that you find the truest expression of who you are becoming and the boundless possibilities that await you on the other side. Win by fearing to attempt!   "Be present.

Although it may be hard to imagine, overexercising can have detrimental effects on your body and overall health. As someone who experienced the consequences firsthand, I can assure you that overexercising can have negative effects on your body and overall well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Let's explore the symptoms of over-exercising and how to find the right balance. The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the right balance! 1. Recognize the Symptoms of Over-Exercising Overexercising not only leaves you feeling fatigued and tired, but your body is constantly sore and achy. You may lose the excitement and motivation to continue your workouts. Surprisingly, overdoing it with exercise can even lead to weight gain, sleep deprivation, and an increase in body fat. For some, this can be a frustrating setback because they're not seeing the progress they desire. It's essential to understand that pushing harder and longer may not always be the solution. 2. Find the Right Balance Training and exercise in moderation have a positive impact on your health, hormones, mental well-being, and sleep quality. However, there's a point of diminishing returns if you overexert yourself without allowing your body to rest and recover. Each person's need for rest may vary, so it's crucial to listen to your body. While your friend may need only a few hours of recovery, you might require a full day. Finding the right balance between exercise and rest will prevent adrenal fatigue and insufficiency. These conditions occur when your adrenals no longer produce enough cortisol and adrenaline. 3. Embrace Daily Gentle Exercise Exercise every day – that's the key. But remember that exercise doesn't always have to be intense or rigorous. Incorporating gentle activities into your routine, such as 20 minutes of stretching, a walking meditation, low-impact tabata, tai chi, or cycling workouts, can be equally beneficial. By engaging in these activities daily and giving your body time to rest and heal, you will continue to make progress toward your goals while prioritizing your overall health. Now that you're aware of the dangers of over-exercising and the importance of finding balance, it's time to take the next steps towards a healthier lifestyle. Remember, moderation and self-care are crucial on your journey toward optimal well-being.   "Be present. Be incredible.

As life's journey twists and turns, there is no reason to be trapped in the burn. Rise above the grudge.  Along the way, we encounter people who betray us, hurt us, and let us down. It's going to happen. But what truly matters is how we choose to respond to these moments of pain. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Are you one who allows them to consume you and hinder your progress? Or do you let go, freeing yourself to pursue your goals and dreams? Holding onto a grudge is like carrying a heavy burden on your shoulders. It weighs you down, draining you of energy and preventing you from moving forward. Instead of focusing on what truly matters – your own growth and happiness – you become obsessed with the thoughts and actions of those who have wronged you. You replay the hurtful moments over and over in your mind, allowing them to become the center of your attention. But what do we gain from holding onto this bitterness? The truth is, nothing positive can come from harboring grudges. It only perpetuates a cycle of negativity, trapping you in a web of resentment. And in the process, you lose sight of your own potential and what you can achieve. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above the grudge! Letting go of a grudge doesn't mean you forget what happened or that you condone the behavior. It means that you choose not to let it define you. You recognize that your energy is better spent on things that uplift you and bring you joy. By releasing the grudge, you create space for healing, personal growth, and the pursuit of your dreams. Imagine a life free from the weight of resentment. A life where you are no longer tethered to the past, but instead, fully present in the possibilities of the future. This is the power of forgiveness and the key to unlocking your true potential. So, let go of the grudge that holds you back. Forgive those who have wronged you, not because they deserve it, but because you deserve peace and freedom. Embrace the life that awaits you beyond the confines of bitterness and negativity. Poem: Rise Above the Grudge by Kristianne Wargo   In the depths of darkness, a grudge may reside, But within our hearts, it need not confide.

Rise above the grudge.  Along the way, we encounter people who betray us, hurt us, and let us down. It's going to happen. But what truly matters is how we choose to respond to these moments of pain. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Are you one who allows them to consume you and hinder your progress? Or do you let go, freeing yourself to pursue your goals and dreams? Holding onto a grudge is like carrying a heavy burden on your shoulders. It weighs you down, draining you of energy and preventing you from moving forward. Instead of focusing on what truly matters – your own growth and happiness – you become obsessed with the thoughts and actions of those who have wronged you. You replay the hurtful moments over and over in your mind, allowing them to become the center of your attention. But what do we gain from holding onto this bitterness? The truth is, nothing positive can come from harboring grudges. It only perpetuates a cycle of negativity, trapping you in a web of resentment. And in the process, you lose sight of your own potential and what you can achieve. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above the grudge! Letting go of a grudge doesn't mean you forget what happened or that you condone the behavior. It means that you choose not to let it define you. You recognize that your energy is better spent on things that uplift you and bring you joy. By releasing the grudge, you create space for healing, personal growth, and the pursuit of your dreams. Imagine a life free from the weight of resentment. A life where you are no longer tethered to the past, but instead, fully present in the possibilities of the future. This is the power of forgiveness and the key to unlocking your true potential. So, let go of the grudge that holds you back. Forgive those who have wronged you, not because they deserve it, but because you deserve peace and freedom. Embrace the life that awaits you beyond the confines of bitterness and negativity. Poem: Rise Above the Grudge by Kristianne Wargo   In the depths of darkness, a grudge may reside, But within our hearts, it need not confide. For we are warriors, strong and brave, Choosing to let go, to forgive and pave.   The path to greatness lies beyond the pain, Where dreams are waiting, eager to reign. With every step we take, we rise above, Leaving behind the grudge, embracing love.   No longer tethered to the burdens of old, We soar and flourish, our spirit bold. For in forgiveness, freedom is found, And our dreams, once lost, are now unbound.   So let go, dear soul, release the grudge, Embrace the journey, let love be the judge. For in the pursuit of dreams, our truth we find, And to heights unreachable, our spirits are aligned.   "Be present. Be incredible.

If you want to satisfy your hunger for growth, don't lose sight. However, it's all too easy to lose sight of these crucial steps along the way. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Without maintaining a steadfast focus, our ambitions can slip away, and our progress can stagnate. You have probably watched a football game or two in your lifeline. As I was watching BYU and the Arkansas Razorbacks, what seemed like impossible throws to catch ended up being some incredible finger-tipped, one-handed catch.  I don't even think the player could believe what happened. But the one thing that made all the difference was that the players kept their eyes on the ball. In this article, we will explore three key strategies to help individuals keep their eyes on the ball, staying committed to executing the necessary drills and skills in order to reach their goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep your eyes on the ball! You need to know the game plan, so you can then execute it to the best of your ability with your skills and drills. Strategy 1: Cultivate a Clear Vision The first step in keeping our eyes on the ball is to cultivate a clear vision of what you're aiming to achieve. By creating a vivid mental image of your goals, you provide yourself with a compass that keeps you on track amidst distractions and setbacks. As Proverbs 29:18 states, "Where there is no vision, the people perish." By having a strong vision, you empower yourself with purpose and direction, enabling you to persevere in the face of adversity. Strategy 2: Embrace Consistent Practice Consistent practice is the cornerstone of executing the drills and skills necessary for goal attainment. It is here that commitment is crucial, as it requires discipline and dedication to stick to a regular routine. As the great basketball player, Michael Jordan, once said, "I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." Michael Jordan reminds us that without consistent practice, success remains elusive. By embracing a commitment to regular practice, you lay the foundation for mastery and continuous improvement. Strategy 3: Develop Resilience and Perseverance Along the path to achieving your goals, setbacks and obstacles are inevitable. It is during these challenging moments that resilience and perseverance become crucial in keeping your eyes on the ball. By maintaining a resilient mindset, you bounce back from failures and setbacks, learning from them rather than allowing them to discourage you. Perseverance, as Philippians 3:14 reminds us, "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus," fuels our determination to stay on course despite difficulties. Together, resilience and perseverance support you in weathering the storm and staying committed to executing the necessary drills and skills toward your goals. In the pursuit of your goals, it is essential that you don't lose sight of the drills and skills required for success. And when you practice what we discussed above, you solidify your commitment to staying focused and executing the necessary steps. As Olympic champion Muhammad Ali once said, "I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'" Adopt this champion mindset and don't lose sight. Keep your eyes on the ball, knowing that with unwavering focus and dedication, you can and will achieve your goals and become the champions of your own life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You desire instant transformation, instant answers to prayer, and instant confirmation that you are on the right path. But it is during these moments that Galatians 6:9 resonates deeply within your soul, reminding you to persist and trust in God. The journey of faith is a marathon, not a sprint. These words remind you that your walk with God is not a short, fleeting race but rather an enduring journey that requires persistence, patience, and unwavering trust. It's easy to grow weary, to question your efforts, and to doubt whether your labor of love is being noticed. However, in those moments, God gently whispers to your soul, "Hang on, child. Your labor is not in vain." This verse from Galatians challenges you to redefine your understanding of reward. Our world teaches us that success is measured by quick returns and immediate gratification. But God invites you to find your ultimate fulfillment in His everlasting arms. He urges you to choose His timing over your impatience, assuring you that your harvest will come—and when it does, it will surpass your wildest dreams. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reap a harvest! So, what areas of your life require more patience and perseverance? Are you facing challenges in relationships, your career, or personal growth? Whatever the circumstances may be, remember that God's timing is perfect, even when it tests your patience. Take heart, dear friend, for your harvest is on its way. In those moments of waiting, let us press on and sow seeds of love, kindness, and faith. Cultivate the soil of your heart with prayer, seek wisdom through His Word, and serve others selflessly. Remember that faith without action is merely a wish, but faith coupled with patience and perseverance brings forth a bountiful harvest. In the face of challenges, seek God's strength. Pray earnestly for His guidance. Lean on His promise that He will never leave nor forsake you. It is through your reliance on His strength that you find the endurance to keep running the race, even when the path seems long and rugged. So, my friend, do not lose heart. Have faith in the process and the journey. Trust that God is working behind the scenes, aligning everything perfectly for His purpose. Your labor of love is not in vain. Your harvest will come, and it will be more abundant, fulfilling, and beautiful than you can ever imagine. "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." ~ Galatians 6:9 May this verse from Galatians be a gentle reminder to persevere, to find joy in the present, and to place your hope in the One who holds your future.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    You desire instant transformation, instant answers to prayer, and instant confirmation that you are on the right path. But it is during these moments that Galatians 6:9 resonates deeply within your soul, reminding you to persist and trust in God. The journey of faith is a marathon, not a sprint. These words remind you that your walk with God is not a short, fleeting race but rather an enduring journey that requires persistence, patience, and unwavering trust. It's easy to grow weary, to question your efforts, and to doubt whether your labor of love is being noticed. However, in those moments, God gently whispers to your soul, "Hang on, child. Your labor is not in vain." This verse from Galatians challenges you to redefine your understanding of reward. Our world teaches us that success is measured by quick returns and immediate gratification. But God invites you to find your ultimate fulfillment in His everlasting arms. He urges you to choose His timing over your impatience, assuring you that your harvest will come—and when it does, it will surpass your wildest dreams. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reap a harvest! So, what areas of your life require more patience and perseverance? Are you facing challenges in relationships, your career, or personal growth? Whatever the circumstances may be, remember that God's timing is perfect, even when it tests your patience. Take heart, dear friend, for your harvest is on its way. In those moments of waiting, let us press on and sow seeds of love, kindness, and faith. Cultivate the soil of your heart with prayer, seek wisdom through His Word, and serve others selflessly. Remember that faith without action is merely a wish, but faith coupled with patience and perseverance brings forth a bountiful harvest. In the face of challenges, seek God's strength. Pray earnestly for His guidance. Lean on His promise that He will never leave nor forsake you. It is through your reliance on His strength that you find the endurance to keep running the race, even when the path seems long and rugged. So, my friend, do not lose heart. Have faith in the process and the journey. Trust that God is working behind the scenes, aligning everything perfectly for His purpose. Your labor of love is not in vain. Your harvest will come, and it will be more abundant, fulfilling, and beautiful than you can ever imagine. "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." ~ Galatians 6:9 May this verse from Galatians be a gentle reminder to persevere, to find joy in the present, and to place your hope in the One who holds your future.

In the dance of compromise, married couples gracefully step towards a harmonious union, weaving understanding and empathy into the fabric of their relationship." Marriage is a beautiful journey that requires nurturing, understanding, and compassion. As couples embark on this lifelong adventure together, learning to compromise is often emphasized. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But as you know, compromise feels like you are selling yourself short. How fair is that to sell yourself short and always make it about the other spouse? Now that is what we should do. Yet the ego in us forces the feeling that if you can't get what you want, is it worth doing what your spouse wants? However, when you went from "me to we", you made a commitment to love well, serve well, and lead well in your marriage. So, instead of feeling like you are selling yourself short when you are doing something for your spouse, look at compromise more through the lens of compassion; serving with a tender-heartedness. It's not about being right or trying to make things work only the way that serves you most. You are now a couple, and that means you have to think in a different way. Why not bolster the bonds of love and deepen the connection? Offer compassion to love well.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Offer compassion to love well! 1. Ask how you can serve him/her today It's hard to know what your spouse needs unless you ask. So ask every day. This will lead to better communication, and you will know upfront what matters to them most based on your conversation. 2. Serve well with win-win solutions Rather than looking at a situation as one-sided, strive for win-win solutions that take into account both your interests and your spouse's. Explore creative alternatives that can fulfill both your desires to a certain extent. By brainstorming and collaboratively problem-solving, you can discover solutions that blend your individual perspectives, demonstrating compassion for one another's desires and aspirations. As American author and speaker Zig Ziglar pointed out, "You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want." 3. Embrace flexibility and adaptability Compromise in marriage does not mean abandoning your own desires completely, but rather maintaining a willingness to be flexible and adaptable. Recognize that change is inevitable and that your priorities may shift over time. Embrace the ebb and flow of life together with your life partner, adjusting your expectations and goals as needed to support each other's growth. As author and motivational speaker Brian Tracy emphasized, "Flexibility is the key to the door of success; without it, compromise becomes a lock, hindering progress and growth." By focusing on these three strategies—you can shift your mindset towards compassion and away from feeling like you're compromising at the expense of your own interests. Remember, in a loving marriage, the aim is for both partners to thrive and find harmony, ultimately creating a balanced and compassionate relationship.   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, rather than shielding them from these inevitable setbacks, you can teach them to rise above disappointment. And why not take a different approach - one that views disappointment as an opportunity for personal growth? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    By reframing our perspective and empowering our children to embrace failure as a stepping stone toward success, it allows you to foster resilience and prepare them for the ever-changing complexities of life. Remember, change is a constant. And with failure or success, there is change. And I get it. It's natural for children to set high expectations for themselves, whether it's excelling in academics, sports, or other personal pursuits. However, disappointment and setbacks are an inevitable part of life. It's essential to guide our children through these challenging moments and help them develop resilience. So, instead of allowing disappointment to diminish their enthusiasm, empower them to learn from failures and bounce back stronger. How do you teach your kids to rise above disappointment? The K.I.S.S. ~ Rise above disappointment! You have tools and strategies to support your children to nurture resilience in the face of shattered expectations.  1. Provide a Safe Space for Expression When children face disappointment, they may experience a mix of emotions, including frustration, sadness, or even anger. Creating a safe and non-judgmental environment where they can freely express their feelings is crucial. Encourage open conversations by actively listening without interruption or judgment. Validate their emotions and reassure them that setbacks are a natural part of growth. By allowing them to vent, you help them process their disappointment and gain perspective. 2. Foster Growth Through Reflection Disappointments can serve as powerful learning opportunities. Encourage your child to reflect on their experience and identify what went wrong while emphasizing that mistakes do not define them. Help them adopt a growth mindset by framing setbacks as stepping stones towards improvement. Ask questions that promote self-analysis and critical thinking, such as: What lessons did you learn from this experience? How can you approach things differently next time? By guiding them towards self-reflection, you nurture their ability to persevere and adapt in the face of challenges. 3. Encourage Persistence and Renewal After experiencing disappointment, it's natural for children to feel discouraged and doubt their abilities. However, as parents, we can motivate them to persist and set new goals. Instill the belief that setbacks are not permanent roadblocks, but temporary detours on the path to success. Encourage your child to identify their strengths and create new objectives that align with their passions. Help them break down these goals into manageable steps, fostering a sense of determination and purpose. By celebrating small wins along the way, you reinforce their confidence and resilience. "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill When disappointment strikes, our role as parents is not to shield our children from these experiences, but to guide them in transforming setbacks into opportunities for growth. By cultivating a culture of learning, fostering mindful self-compassion, and encouraging creative problem-solving, you empower your children to embrace failure as a catalyst for personal development. Remember, embracing disappointment is not a sign of weakness but a testament to their courage and resilience. Inspire and support your children to rise above, ignite their determination, and embark on a detour that may or may not lead them back to what they were working toward; a journey of self-discovery. As parents, our role is to guide our children through the ups and downs of life, including the disappointments they face along the way. You can empower your children to navigate disappointment well. Setbacks are temporary roadblocks that ultimately lead to growth and success. Regardless of the hills and valleys in life, your children will rise above disappointment.   "Be present. Be incredible.

I know my goals. I have a clear direction and path to follow. I know where God wants me to go. But here I sit, wrestling with the voices in my head.  Are you one who is challenged by what is being said to you between your ears? Are you trying to be someone you are not based on what other voices and people are saying around you? One of the hardest things we need to do is stay grounded and true to who we are and who we are created to be. So why do you let everyone in? Do you open the door to strangers and ask them to make themselves at home without having some knowledge about them? Nowadays, probably not.  So why do you open up your mind and allow people to trample all over who you are? The K.I.S.S. ~ Fight to be yourself! Fight to be Yourself: The World Sees You by Kristianne Wargo In a world that's filled with ceaseless chatter, A symphony of voices, opinions that scatter. Hold on tight to the truth within your soul, For it's that voice, God's design, that makes you whole.   Shut the doors to the noise, to the doubt and fear, Let the melody of your heart ring crystal clear. Ignore the naysayers who try to dim your light, Stay the course divinely designed, with all your might.   This is your day, your moment to embrace, To stand tall, to shine bright, in every space. For God's spark resides within your very being, A masterpiece created, a unique sight worth seeing.   So shut out the noise, let silence be your guide, In stillness, you'll find the strength deep inside. For in the quietness, your purpose will bloom, Unveiling a destiny, where dreams find room.   Create your now, paint life's canvas with bright and bold hues, Embrace freedom's gifts, discard all limiting views. There's a symphony waiting, only you can play, For it's in being yourself, you light the way.   So listen to that voice, the whisper in your soul, God's love, His plan, forever your goal. Embrace who you are, your essence untamed, In being true to yourself, you will never be maimed.   This journey is yours, a path worth pursuing, Where authenticity thrives, where dreams are renewing. So be who God created, unapologetically true, For in embracing your uniqueness, the world sees you.   CHALLENGE: Are you ready to fight to be yourself? You got this!!   "Be present. Be incredible.

It always keeps going faster and faster. So what do you do when your health is out of bounds? No matter what, keep going for your goals.  Now it may seem a little strange that I mention no matter what. Because we all have excuses. We live up to our shortcomings more than we do our longcomings.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn</a>.co    We want the easy way out. And so we do just that; we take the shorter road with the least distance needed to travel. And where does that take us? Nowhere! As I have been down the healthy, living journey for decades, now, I know what it means to stick to what you need to do, and not waver. Yet, I’ve also been on the other side, we’re all you do is waver and make excuses for whatever reason.  I could sit here and give you the exact diet plan that you need to follow. But in all honesty, there’s too much of that on the Internet already. You can go google any diet you want from the cabbage diet to the cucumber diet to the keto diet to the vegan diet to the Paleo diet. And you will find exactly what you need. You could get an app and find your answers there. But one thing you could not find is the real-life struggles and troubles. What it really means to dedicate yourself to living an uncompromised life so you can be your best selfie. And I’m not talking about not thinking of others and taking care of your family. Of course, you have responsibilities and other demands that you need to fulfill within your life.  However, that doesn’t mean that you sell yourself short. Compromising your health is the worst thing you can do. Now I would say, that compromise in your relationship with God is the absolute worst. But here, when you look at it from an earthly perspective, as to our actions, and what we control, it’s most definitely our health. And I don’t know about you, but I have lived many days where I have made more excuses and compromised what I knew I needed to benefit someone else. And for what reason? It doesn’t do them any good, the ones I love, for me to compromise my health. I mean, who is going to take care of the family if I’m in the hospital for two weeks due to exhaustion, malnutrition, dehydration, and mental instability?  Absolutely, positively no one!!  Further, I still can see, though that it’s much easier to live in those circumstances. And you wonder why? It truly is because it’s easier. We can go through life compromising for ourselves instead of not stopping for what we know is right for ourselves.  So today that all changes for you and it has for me. Your health needs to be the most important thing you focus on right now. If you have other issues in your life, which we all do, you can still work on those. But if you compromise on your health, I am telling you right now, you will compromise on everything else in your life. How fair is that to you? How fair is that to the ones you love?  It’s not fair! Therefore, you need to take today like the bull by the horns, and make today the starting point of an unwavering, uncompromising, dedicated, and determined individual that you will reach your goal and maintain it for the rest of your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take the bull by the horns! Now that’s a pretty big pill to swallow. But it’s one I know you can take on the challenge. And so I want to leave you with some things that you can do as you take the bull by the horns. 1. Don’t compromise your nutrition. What I mean by this, is that a lot of us will sit here and come up with excuses to fit in. We will find a way to go out to dinner and be like everybody else. My friend, you are not like everybody else. You were made for more. And so if you go out to dinner, and there is not something on the menu that you can eat, within the constraints and confines of your nutritional diet, then you need to not eat. Now I know a lot of people would be saying this is wrong! I hear that hate emails being sent already. But save the typing. Cheating on yourself because you want to eat and be like everybody else right now; it’s not the time, nor the place. Until you are ready, and where you want to be in your health journey, you need to stay the course! You do not want to allow yourself to have a cheat day, or a cheat meal. You may make a decision to eat a specific food, but let me challenge you with this question. How long will it take you to rebound from the cheat meal or the cheat day that you have? Everybody is very different when it comes to how our food responds. And when we eat, we eat with our mind as in the way it looks, the way it smells, the way it tastes, the atmosphere, the environment that we gain from this moment when we are eating food. But the body doesn’t see it that way. The body sees it as simply a chemical reaction made solely to fuel your body, giving your organs and your mind exactly what it needs nutritionally. Let me give you a real-life example. My son was spending some time with us and his dog.  Well in that, he knew I was being very specific about what I was eating. And so he went to grab himself something to eat, but wanted to give me something. So he got me egg drop soup. Which, by the way, I absolutely love. But in eating that soup, you need to understand that I ate it from a point of guilt. He spent his hard-earned money to give me something so I didn’t have to necessarily cook and he wanted to take care of his mom, which was very kind and very sweet. And so in that it was all good on both sides right but I gave in to what I knew was not right for me. So yes, I ate the egg drop soup. It was only one cup worth. Now you could imagine the amount of sodium that was in that egg drop soup. But can you believe that it took me three days to recuperate from that one cup of egg drop soup that I ate. I gained a pound and a half on the scale. Now some would say that was not really weight. Others would argue it is. I will tell you this. This is my body and how it responded was inflammation! That was not good in itself. So as I watched how I felt within my body and how my body was responding, I realized how just one cup of egg drop soup changed everything. No matter what my friend, don’t compromise on your nutrition. 2. Don’t apologize for what you are doing for yourself.  Most of our excuses encompass pleasing others so we don't hurt their feelings. But what about your feelings are your body? What about your goals? What about your life? 3. Don’t say yes when you really need to say no. I took my grandson and grand dog home to my daughter and son-in-love as they had a busy schedule, and so he came to spend the weekend with me. Of course, Grandma loved it! But I’m coming back, Papa and I decided that we would take them all the way back home instead of meeting halfway. We thought that would be easier. So that is what we did. And in the midst of a conversation when we told them what we were doing, my daughter sweetly said, will you stay for dinner. I would love to cook you dinner. And the thing was, I told my husband in advance, that I did not want to stay for dinner. I did not want to eat extra sauces. I needed to know exactly what was put in the food, and they needed an evening by themselves. And I just wanted to be respectful of what I needed, and I knew what they needed too. And so when my husband called my daughter, she did exactly what I expected her to do. She wanted us to stay for dinner, and so he completely told her exactly what I wanted her to know. And then another call came in from my son-in-love and he wanted us to stay for dinner. Papa proceeded to tell him no and let me tell you, it was so refreshing to know that number one my children wanted to spend time with me. Right?! Of course you want to spend time with your kiddos. Which we did. But we did not have to surround ourselves with the food. I need to eat specifically for me. And I knew that my daughter would fix something that would be delicious, and I would not want to say no to what her hard work put into it, especially her love. But I didn’t waver. I knew what I was doing, and because of my egg drop soup happening, I knew I had to stay the course. And a lot of times we don’t want to do that. But no matter what you gotta stay the course. CHALLENGE: Where are your hang-ups? Where do you give in too soon or too fast? Do your body well, and your body will serve you for a very long time.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But how you respond to all of them around you, will determine how you will soar. Be grateful for your doubters. And I know this sounds strange. But I've had many in my life who questioned me. Colleagues, family, great friends, neighbors, even people who didn't know me. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

However, I learned very early on from my parents and grandparents-- that's not the way you show up for your dreams. No one has the right to put out the spark within you. So why not be grateful for your doubters? The K.I.S.S. ~ Be grateful for your doubters! Coco Gauff won the US Open, and her speech as a 19-year-old carried so much wisdom.  She said, "I want to say honestly, thank you to the people who didn't believe in me. A month ago, I won a 500 title, and people said I would stop at that. Two weeks ago, I won a 1000 title, and people were saying that was the biggest it was gonna get. So like, three weeks later, I'm here with this trophy right now [US Open Women's Champion 2023]. You know I've tried my best to carry this with grace and I've been doing my best; so honestly to those who thought they were putting water on my fire, you were really adding gas to it. And now, I'm really burning so bright right now." What do you think that did for her, and for those who voiced their doubt she should do any better? What is fueling your fire within? Are you letting others throw water on it? And are you using that water as gas or straight H2O to either expand your impact or reduce you to ashes? You get to decide how you create your now. Coco Gauff wrote her story on the courts on Saturday, September 9, 2023.  How will you write your story on the courts of every day? Go create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But how you respond to all of them around you, will determine how you will soar. Be grateful for your doubters. And I know this sounds strange. But I've had many in my life who questioned me. Colleagues, family, great friends, neighbors, even people who didn't know me. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

However, I learned very early on from my parents and grandparents-- that's not the way you show up for your dreams. No one has the right to put out the spark within you. So why not be grateful for your doubters? The K.I.S.S. ~ Be grateful for your doubters! Coco Gauff won the US Open, and her speech as a 19-year-old carried so much wisdom.  She said, "I want to say honestly, thank you to the people who didn't believe in me. A month ago, I won a 500 title, and people said I would stop at that. Two weeks ago, I won a 1000 title, and people were saying that was the biggest it was gonna get. So like, three weeks later, I'm here with this trophy right now [US Open Women's Champion 2023]. You know I've tried my best to carry this with grace and I've been doing my best; so honestly to those who thought they were putting water on my fire, you were really adding gas to it. And now, I'm really burning so bright right now." What do you think that did for her, and for those who voiced their doubt she should do any better? What is fueling your fire within? Are you letting others throw water on it? And are you using that water as gas or straight H2O to either expand your impact or reduce you to ashes? You get to decide how you create your now. Coco Gauff wrote her story on the courts on Saturday, September 9, 2023.  How will you write your story on the courts of every day? Go create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It's a time that invites us to embrace change and find beauty in the process of growth. As we bid farewell to summer, let's step out of our comfort zones, be bold, and embrace the new opportunities that this season brings.

Are you one who is very flexible and can turn on a dime? Are you one who feels constrained when you're not in control? Are you one who wants to dictate what's supposed to happen? Are you one who demonstrates reserve and manages change well? Change is a constant. And just because change is always constant, doesn't me that you have to change everything. What are ways you handle change?  The K.I.S.S. ~ Fully embrace this season of change! 1. Try New Things: Step out of Your Comfort Zone "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone." - Neale Donald Walsch The fall season provides a fresh canvas for self-discovery and growth. Don't be afraid to try new things and step outside of your comfort zone. Whether it's taking up a new hobby, exploring a different form of exercise, or learning something new, the fall season is the perfect time to embrace change and expand your horizons. 2. Embrace a Bold Attitude: Leave Reservations Behind "Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all." - Helen Keller To fully embrace the season, leave behind any reservations and adopt a bold attitude. Take calculated risks and chase your dreams fearlessly. Use this time to set ambitious goals and push yourself beyond your limits. Embracing the fall season means embodying courage and embracing the unknown, allowing yourself to grow and thrive in unexpected ways. 3. Focus on Productivity: Establish Goals and Accountability "Accountability breeds response-ability." - Stephen Covey As the year nears its close, the fall season offers an opportune time to refocus and prioritize productivity. Take the time to establish clear goals and objectives for the remaining months, and create a plan of action to achieve them. Surround yourself with a supportive community that encourages accountability and motivates you to stay focused. By harnessing this season's energy, you can end the year on a high note, accomplishing what you set out to achieve. Embrace the Season: A Time for Growth and Transformation As the leaves change their colors, let's internalize the beauty of change and growth this fall season. Embrace the spirit of transformation and seize the opportunities that come your way. Step outside of your comfort zone, adopt a bold attitude, and focus on productivity. Embracing this new season enables you to not only adapt to change but also flourish in it. Remember, embracing the season is about finding joy in self-discovery, seeking new experiences, and celebrating personal growth. The fall season grants us time, possibilities, and a chance to write our stories anew. So, let's embrace this season as a symbol of strength, resilience, and endless possibilities.   "Be present.

When stress weighs heavy on your heart and burdens seem overwhelming, it is easy to feel alone and forgotten. But let this verse be a beacon of hope, assuring you that God is always there, ready to shoulder your worries and anxieties. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In this world, we often try to bear our burdens alone, believing that we are strong enough to handle everything. However, the truth is that we were never designed to carry our troubles without assistance. God's invitation to us is clear – cast all our anxieties upon Him and trust that He genuinely cares for us. When we cast your worries on God, you surrender control and lean on His strength. You acknowledge that you cannot solve everything on your own and that you need His wisdom, guidance, and comfort. In doing so, you embrace the truth that God is both able and eager to help you. Imagine the weight lifted from your shoulders when you hand over your anxieties to the One who knows you intimately, who knows your thoughts before you even express them. How freeing it is to release your worries and instead choose to trust in God's perfect plan for your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Because He cares for you!   God's care for His children extends beyond simply carrying our burdens. It also encompasses His deep love, compassion, and desire for our well-being. He longs to comfort us, strengthen us, and provide for our needs. His care is all-encompassing, covering every aspect of our lives. Therefore, do not hesitate to bring your concerns, big or small, to the Lord. His arms are open wide, ready to receive you and offer comfort to your troubled heart. In His presence, you find peace that surpasses all understanding, and your burdens are lightened. Today, I encourage you to meditate on this verse and allow it to penetrate the depths of your heart and soul. Take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life where anxiety and worries have taken root. Visualize yourself releasing those burdens and deliberately placing them in God's loving hands. Remember that you are not alone in this journey. The Lord is with you every step of the way, ready to carry your burdens and shower you with His boundless love. Trust in His care and experience the freedom that comes from surrendering to His loving embrace. May your heart find rest in knowing that you are deeply cherished and cared for by the Almighty.

How freeing it is to release your worries and instead choose to trust in God's perfect plan for your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Because He cares for you!   God's care for His children extends beyond simply carrying our burdens. It also encompasses His deep love, compassion, and desire for our well-being. He longs to comfort us, strengthen us, and provide for our needs. His care is all-encompassing, covering every aspect of our lives. Therefore, do not hesitate to bring your concerns, big or small, to the Lord. His arms are open wide, ready to receive you and offer comfort to your troubled heart. In His presence, you find peace that surpasses all understanding, and your burdens are lightened. Today, I encourage you to meditate on this verse and allow it to penetrate the depths of your heart and soul. Take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life where anxiety and worries have taken root. Visualize yourself releasing those burdens and deliberately placing them in God's loving hands. Remember that you are not alone in this journey. The Lord is with you every step of the way, ready to carry your burdens and shower you with His boundless love. Trust in His care and experience the freedom that comes from surrendering to His loving embrace. May your heart find rest in knowing that you are deeply cherished and cared for by the Almighty.

Then, that leaves us offended because of our own expectations. Turn the other cheek. Yes, we've taught them right and wrong. But in the moment, our feelings may be hurt. We may feel disappointment or even anger. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, it's important to remember that our children are still learning and growing, and it's not fair to place blame or misplaced anger on them. Instead, let's explore three things parents can do to "turn the other cheek". Because there's no excuse to blast our kiddos just because. So turn the other cheek. Pause. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pause! There is wisdom in the pause. This pause comes with compassion and understanding. It's not about being right.  You ain't got time for the ego! So pause. 1. Reflect on Your Own Expectations: It's crucial to take a step back and honestly examine our own expectations as parents. Are we expecting too much from our children? Are we setting unrealistic standards? By recognizing and adjusting our own mindset, we can avoid projecting our own frustrations onto our kids. Remember, they are still in the process of learning, and it's essential to give them room to make mistakes and grow. 2. Practice Empathy: Empathy is a powerful tool that can help us understand our children's perspective. Instead of getting upset when they don't meet our expectations, let's try to put ourselves in their shoes and see things from their point of view. Maybe they were tired, overwhelmed, or simply acting their age. By showing empathy, we create an environment of understanding and mutual respect, fostering stronger parent-child relationships. 3. Communicate: Communication is key in any relationship, including with our children. Instead of harboring resentment or blame towards them, it's crucial to have open and honest conversations. Discuss your expectations calmly and listen to their thoughts and feelings. By creating a safe space for dialogue, we foster a sense of trust and understanding, allowing our children to grow and learn from their experiences. As parents, it's natural to have expectations for our children's behavior. However, it's important to recognize that they are still learning and evolving individuals. To "turn the other cheek," we must reflect on our own expectations, practice empathy, and promote open communication. By approaching parenting with understanding and compassion, we can build stronger relationships with our children and create an environment conducive to their growth and development.   "Be present.

But here's the thing: life doesn't wait for you to catch your breath. Push forward. And I know you might be yelling-- But all I want is to take a break.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It is so tough to keep up your motivation and work tirelessly toward your goals. But it's not about the tired part. It's about seeing the bigger vision of your mission. Push forward. Now I get it. We all get tired and worn out.  But when the going gets tough, remind yourself of your purpose. Reconnect with that burning passion that set you on this path of hard work and dedication. Remember, your goals are not just distant dreams; they are stepping stones leading your toward what you are chasing. Embrace the chase, tap into the purpose, and use your momentum to fuel your actions. Sometimes, the enormity of our goals can be so overwhelming, leaving us feeling drained and unmotivated. We just sit there somewhat starry-eyed. Instead of fixating on the end result, break down the chase into manageable, bite-sized tasks. Focus on each step-- "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~Kristianne Wargo" And celebrate the small victories along the way. This way, you are not only building momentum but also nurturing your motivation to keep going. The K.I.S.S. ~ Push forward! And then don't forget to surround yourself with the gang that bangs. The people who inspire you and encourage you. People who have already achieved greatness or are on a similar journey. Seek out their stories, read about their struggles and triumphs; let their chase light the fire within you. Remember, you are not alone in the pursuit of your dreams. Draw strength from the wisdom and experiences of those who have gone before you. Iron sharpens iron. (Proverbs 27:17) And as you are sharpening each other, give yourself grace. Prioritize activities that nourish your mind, body, and spirit. Invest time in activities that replenish your energy and revitalize your spirit. In moments of exhaustion, when the will to keep going wavers, remember this: "True strength lies not in never feeling tired, but in finding the courage to rise above fatigue and embrace the journey with renewed determination." ~Kristianne Wargo And let me add this one thing. You are bound to face moments of fatigue and wavering motivation, simply because you're human. So, take a deep breath, gather your strength, and soar toward your dreams. Keep going, for the fire within you is brighter than you could ever imagine. It's time to push forward and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But here's the thing: life doesn't wait for you to catch your breath. Push forward. And I know you might be yelling-- But all I want is to take a break.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    It is so tough to keep up your motivation and work tirelessly toward your goals. But it's not about the tired part. It's about seeing the bigger vision of your mission. Push forward. Now I get it. We all get tired and worn out.  But when the going gets tough, remind yourself of your purpose. Reconnect with that burning passion that set you on this path of hard work and dedication. Remember, your goals are not just distant dreams; they are stepping stones leading your toward what you are chasing. Embrace the chase, tap into the purpose, and use your momentum to fuel your actions. Sometimes, the enormity of our goals can be so overwhelming, leaving us feeling drained and unmotivated. We just sit there somewhat starry-eyed. Instead of fixating on the end result, break down the chase into manageable, bite-sized tasks. Focus on each step-- "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~Kristianne Wargo" And celebrate the small victories along the way. This way, you are not only building momentum but also nurturing your motivation to keep going. The K.I.S.S. ~ Push forward! And then don't forget to surround yourself with the gang that bangs. The people who inspire you and encourage you. People who have already achieved greatness or are on a similar journey. Seek out their stories, read about their struggles and triumphs; let their chase light the fire within you. Remember, you are not alone in the pursuit of your dreams. Draw strength from the wisdom and experiences of those who have gone before you. Iron sharpens iron. (Proverbs 27:17) And as you are sharpening each other, give yourself grace. Prioritize activities that nourish your mind, body, and spirit. Invest time in activities that replenish your energy and revitalize your spirit. In moments of exhaustion, when the will to keep going wavers, remember this: "True strength lies not in never feeling tired, but in finding the courage to rise above fatigue and embrace the journey with renewed determination." ~Kristianne Wargo And let me add this one thing. You are bound to face moments of fatigue and wavering motivation, simply because you're human. So, take a deep breath, gather your strength, and soar toward your dreams. Keep going, for the fire within you is brighter than you could ever imagine. It's time to push forward and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It can be frustrating and overwhelming, to constantly chase after a specific number to reach your health goals. Is the number your real goal? Because what if you shift your focus away from the numbers and instead focus on your talents, gifts, relationships, and how you feel? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Sometimes, you have to step away from what has been blasted at you and overcome the obsession with numbers to achieve true health and happiness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Overcome the obsession of numbers! 1. Embrace Non-Quantitative Indicators of Health Our obsession with numbers often leads us to believe that health is solely determined by the digits on a scale or the size of our clothes. However, health is more complex than a number. Take, for instance, the number on a hanger. Society often dictates that a specific size is desirable, but our bodies are unique and dynamic. Instead of fixating on fitting into a certain size, we can shift our focus to how our clothes make us feel and the confidence they bring. Another example is the number on the scale. While it can be used as a tool to measure progress, it’s important to remember that weight fluctuates based on various factors such as muscle mass, water retention, hormonal changes, and inflammation. Rather than obsessing over a specific number, pay careful attention to how your body feels, your energy levels, and your overall well-being. 2. Set Non-Numerical Goals Setting goals based solely on numbers can be limiting and demotivating. Instead, shift our focus to non-numerical goals that reflect your overall health and well-being. For example, rather than aiming for a specific weight or body fat percentage, focus on goals like improving strength, flexibility, or overall fitness levels. Think about your energy level, too. By shifting your focus to what your body can do rather than a number on a scale, you get to enjoy the process and celebrate your achievements along the way. 3. Cultivate a Positive Mindset Numbers from the past can often haunt us, making us feel like we haven't achieved enough. However, it's important to remember that progress is not always linear. Plus, a positive mindset leads to better health outcomes. Research shows that individuals who adopt a positive outlook are more likely to engage in healthier behaviors, experience lower levels of stress, and have stronger immune systems. By focusing on the present moment and embracing a positive mindset, we can break free from the constraints of numbers and truly experience the joy of living a healthy life. As you journey towards reaching your health goals, it's essential to remember that numbers are just a small part of the bigger picture. Your health and happiness are not solely determined by digits, but rather by the way you feel, the relationships you cultivate, and the goals you set for yourself. So, free yourself from the numbers game and focus on living your life to the fullest. As author William Arthur Ward once said, "If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it." Remember, you are more than just a number. Start embracing the moments and create your now.   "Train for life.

Remember, that the greatest journeys are often embarked upon with no guarantees, just faith and determination. Hit it with your best shot. It may be a career change, starting a business, pursuing a dream, or simply stepping outside of our comfort zone. In those moments, it's natural to feel a mix of excitement and fear, wondering if we have what it takes to succeed without a safety net. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    There's a famous biblical story about a man named David who faced a formidable giant named Goliath. David was just a young shepherd boy with no experience in warfare, while Goliath was a well-trained warrior, towering over him. But what set David apart was his unwavering belief in his own abilities and his unshakeable faith. With nothing but a slingshot and a few stones, he confidently stepped onto the battlefield, knowing that he was destined for something greater. Perhaps you find yourself in a situation similar to David. The odds may seem stacked against you, and the path may be unclear. But remember, it's not about the size of the challenge, but rather the size of your spirit and determination. Trust in yourself, trust in your abilities, and trust in something greater than yourself. Find the courage to take that leap, and soon you will discover that you possess the strength to conquer any giant standing in your way. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hit it with your best shot! As you stand on the edge, remember these wise words of Eleanor Roosevelt, "Do one thing every day that scares you." Embrace the discomfort, for it is in those moments of vulnerability and uncertainty that we truly grow and discover our full potential. Each step forward, no matter how small, is a step closer to the person you were meant to be. So, my dear friend, take a deep breath, summon your inner strength, and hit it with your best shot. Embrace the journey ahead, and remember that even if you stumble or fall, you will rise again, wiser and stronger than before. Trust that the universe has a plan for you, and it is in these moments of risk and vulnerability that you will find your true purpose. Go forth with courage, resilience, and unwavering faith. The safety net may not be visible, but know that it exists within you. You have the power to create your now and turn your dreams into reality. So, go ahead and take that leap. The world is waiting for you to spread your wings and soar. In the words of an unknown author, "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone." Step outside of the familiar, push beyond your limits, and embark on this thrilling adventure called life. You have everything you need within you, so embrace the unknown and hit it with your best shot.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Ignite the flames of success! 1. Define Your Vision, and then Set Clear Goals "The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams." - Oprah Winfrey One of the fundamental steps towards living your dreams is to define a clear vision of what success looks like for you. Take the time to delve deep into your passions, values, and aspirations. Visualize the life you desire and set specific, achievable goals that align with your vision. Having a clear roadmap will not only keep you focused but also serve as a constant reminder of the direction you are heading and what you want to achieve. 2. Increase the Belief in Yourself, and then Persevere "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." - Eleanor Roosevelt Building the life of your dreams requires unwavering self-belief and the determination to persevere through challenges.

Roosevelt While having dreams is essential, taking action is what makes them a reality. Dare to step out of your comfort zone and embrace calculated risks. Be willing to explore new opportunities and try out different strategies to propel yourself forward. Remember that failure is not the end, but a valuable feedback mechanism for growth. Learn from your mistakes, adapt as needed, and keep pushing forward. Remember, the most successful individuals are those who are not afraid to take leaps of faith and learn from their experiences along the way. Living your dreams requires more than just hard work; it demands resilience, self-belief, and consistency. You must take AIM towards your goals daily.

When we find ourselves trapped in a mess, it's natural to feel lost and uncertain. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, as we delve deeper into the Scriptures, we discover that there is a path to hope, endurance, and encouragement. In the book of Romans, the apostle Paul reminds us of the timeless wisdom found in God's Word, emphasizing the lessons it teaches us. Let's explore how we can grab hold of what God gives us, even in the midst of our mess. Endurance Taught in the Scriptures: Life is full of challenges, and sometimes it feels as though we are constantly navigating through one messy situation after another. However, when we turn to the Scriptures, we find stories of individuals who endured hardships and came out stronger on the other side. Their stories provide us with valuable lessons, teaching us that endurance is not about simply pushing through, but rather about relying on God's strength and guidance. Abraham, for instance, faced numerous obstacles and disappointments on his journey towards fulfilling God's promise. Yet, through it all, he remained steadfast in his faith. His story teaches us the importance of persevering in the face of adversity, trusting that God is working behind the scenes, even when we cannot see it. The K.I.S.S. ~ For everything written in the past! The Encouragement Scriptures Provide: Beyond teaching us about endurance, the Scriptures also offer genuine encouragement. In times of despair, the inspired words found within its pages remind us of God's faithfulness and love. The Psalms, in particular, are a source of solace and comfort, capturing the raw emotions and heartfelt prayers of the writers. When we read Psalm 62:5-6, which says, "Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken," we are reminded that our hope does not come from worldly circumstances, but rather from placing our trust in an unchanging God. Through His Word, God assures us that He is our refuge, providing us with the strength we need to persevere in the mess. Embracing Hope in the Midst of Our Mess: Though life may seem chaotic and overwhelming, it's essential to remember that God has a purpose for our mess. The trials we face can strengthen our character, deepen our faith, and draw us closer to Him. As we meditate on His Word, we find encouragement and hope that transcends our circumstances. Moreover, through God's Word, we gain access to His promises, which assure us that He is always with us. Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." We can anchor our hope in this promise and trust that God is working for our good, even when we cannot see it. In the midst of life's messes, God's Word serves as a guiding light, leading us toward endurance and encouragement. By immersing ourselves in Scripture, we discover inspiring stories of individuals who persisted through trials and found solace in God's promises. Let us remember that our mess is not the end of the story; it is merely a chapter leading us to hope, endurance, and ultimately, the abundant life that God offers. May we continually seek His Word and allow it to transform our hearts, reminding us of the unshakable hope that is found in Him.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How do you strengthen your marital bond in a digital age? Stay in the know. In today's fast-paced digital world, it's easy for couples to get caught up in the distractions and allure of technology.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    That's why it's crucial for married couples to understand what it means to "Stay in the Know" and prioritize their relationship above all else. Let's explore three practical steps to help couples focus on each other amidst the temptations of technology. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay in the know! 1. Establish Screen-Free Time: Designate specific times during the day or week when both spouses commit to disconnecting from technology and devoting their full attention to each other. For example, you can set a rule to have a technology-free dinner conversation every evening. By removing distractions, you create a space where you can truly engage with one another, and share thoughts, dreams, and concerns, strengthening your bond. Example: John and Sarah instituted a daily evening walk without their phones. This allowed them to reconnect, talk about their day, and enjoy quality time together without the interruption of technology. 2. Create Shared Hobbies or Activities: Engage in activities that both partners enjoy and can participate in together. By discovering and nurturing common interests, you deepen your sense of connection and create lasting memories. Whether it's trying out a new hobby, cooking together, or taking up a sport as a couple, the key is to find something that brings you joy and allows for quality time spent together. Example: Liz and Mark decided to join a local cooking class. They discovered their shared love for culinary adventures and spent regular evenings preparing delicious meals, learning new recipes, and indulging in conversation and laughter. 3. Prioritize Meaningful Communication: In addition to setting aside designated screen-free time, make a conscious effort to communicate effectively on a daily basis. This means actively listening, expressing appreciation and gratitude, and showing genuine interest in each other's lives. Engage in open and honest conversations, ask thought-provoking questions, and share your desires and aspirations. Regularly check in with one another to ensure you are both on the same page and address any concerns promptly. Example: Amy and David implemented a daily ritual of sharing their high and low points of the day during dinner.

How do you strengthen your marital bond in a digital age? Stay in the know. In today's fast-paced digital world, it's easy for couples to get caught up in the distractions and allure of technology.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    That's why it's crucial for married couples to understand what it means to "Stay in the Know" and prioritize their relationship above all else. Let's explore three practical steps to help couples focus on each other amidst the temptations of technology. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stay in the know! 1. Establish Screen-Free Time: Designate specific times during the day or week when both spouses commit to disconnecting from technology and devoting their full attention to each other. For example, you can set a rule to have a technology-free dinner conversation every evening. By removing distractions, you create a space where you can truly engage with one another, and share thoughts, dreams, and concerns, strengthening your bond. Example: John and Sarah instituted a daily evening walk without their phones. This allowed them to reconnect, talk about their day, and enjoy quality time together without the interruption of technology. 2. Create Shared Hobbies or Activities: Engage in activities that both partners enjoy and can participate in together. By discovering and nurturing common interests, you deepen your sense of connection and create lasting memories. Whether it's trying out a new hobby, cooking together, or taking up a sport as a couple, the key is to find something that brings you joy and allows for quality time spent together. Example: Liz and Mark decided to join a local cooking class. They discovered their shared love for culinary adventures and spent regular evenings preparing delicious meals, learning new recipes, and indulging in conversation and laughter. 3. Prioritize Meaningful Communication: In addition to setting aside designated screen-free time, make a conscious effort to communicate effectively on a daily basis. This means actively listening, expressing appreciation and gratitude, and showing genuine interest in each other's lives. Engage in open and honest conversations, ask thought-provoking questions, and share your desires and aspirations. Regularly check in with one another to ensure you are both on the same page and address any concerns promptly. Example: Amy and David implemented a daily ritual of sharing their high and low points of the day during dinner. This simple practice allowed them to stay connected and involved in each other's lives, fostering a sense of emotional intimacy. While it's tempting to get swept away by the vastness of the digital sphere, married couples must consciously make an effort to "Stay in the Know" with their partners. By establishing screen-free time, engaging in shared hobbies, and prioritizing meaningful communication, couples can foster a deep sense of connection and strengthen their bond amidst the distractions of the digital age. Remember, your spouse is irreplaceable, but only if you allow them to be. "Technology may enable us to connect with the world, but it's our commitment to staying connected with each other that truly enriches our lives." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

What will you gift their mind today? As parents, our responsibility goes beyond mere caretaking; it extends to instilling values that will guide them through life.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Our kiddos are bombarded with so much. With all my kiddos in school, they are now facing the challenge of expressing themselves. And let me tell you, if we don't help our children with communication, we are going to have a generational gap that is going to tear each other up. And you're already seeing that nowadays. Building those minds that learn what matters early in life, and then can be able to express themselves with respect for others, makes for a dynamite child. So if you are ready to take advantage of those once in a blue moon moments, raise your children higher. The K.I.S.S. ~ Raise your children higher! 1. Teach with Current Examples In order to cultivate a growth mindset and expand what they don't see, you want to encourage your child to view challenges as opportunities for growth. Emphasize the importance of effort, resilience, and learning from mistakes. Intertwine current events (what they can understand and associate with), so they can see how personal growth happens for everyone. [Thomas Edison failed numerous times before inventing the light bulb, or how J.K. Rowling faced rejection before becoming a bestselling author.] Share personal stories or inspirational anecdotes to exemplify how setbacks can lead to personal growth. As Philippians 4:13 states, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Remind them that with determination and faith, they can overcome any obstacle. 2. Teach with Compassion and Empathy Open their hearts to understand more than what they can see (or feel). Help them express themselves in a way that brings comfort to their growing selves, and then, being able to understand someone else's position without dragging them through the mud. 3. Teach Critical Thinking Who thinks for themselves today? Not very many. All the more reason why you need to teach your children this skill. Your children need to have the competency and confidence to ask questions to learn more, facilitate further discussion, and to grow in knowing what they don't know. Remember, it is important to be sensitive to the age and maturity level of your child when engaging in these conversations. Adapt your approach accordingly to ensure they grasp the message without feeling overwhelmed. And then, let them ask questions of you. Because mom, you only get these opportunities once in a blue moon.    "Be present. Be incredible.

This can be detrimental when it comes to healthy living. So what can balance and boundaries do for your health? As I'm sure you're aware, when it comes to healthy living, people pleasing can play a significant role. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Many individuals find themselves sacrificing their own needs and desires in order to gain the approval and acceptance of others. Whether right or wrong, let's look at this as a fact. And this fact can be one of the thorns in becoming your best selfie. Whether it's constantly saying yes to every request, taking up extra responsibilities, or even compromising personal values, people pleasing can have detrimental effects on your well-being. Take the example of Sarah, a hardworking professional and mom who always goes above and beyond to please her colleagues and her family. Despite being overloaded with tasks, Sarah finds it difficult to say no when her coworkers ask for help, and when her family needs her. As a result, she often experiences high levels of stress and burnout, neglecting her own life balance. Sarah's desire to please everyone ends up taking a toll on her mental and physical health. If you want To overcome the guilt and shame associated with not pleasing others, you need to build from the ground up.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Build from the ground up! And when you build from the ground up, you are looking at what matters to you in the season you are in now.  1. Set Boundaries: Establish clear boundaries to maintain a healthy balance. This means learning to say no when necessary and prioritizing yourself. By clearly communicating your limits and needs, you then train others how to treat you and respect your boundaries. 2. Practice Self-Compassion: Instead of constantly seeking external validation, it's important to cultivate self-compassion. Being kinder to yourself and accepting that it's impossible to please everyone all the time can help you release the guilt and shame associated with not meeting others' expectations. Research conducted by Dr. Kristin Neff at the University of Texas supports the idea that self-compassion can lead to increased resilience and overall well-being. 3. Focus on Authenticity: Embracing your true self allows you to build genuine connections and attract people who appreciate you for who you genuinely are. Seeking approval from others can lead to inauthenticity and an overall dissatisfaction with life. By embracing your unique qualities and values, you can cultivate meaningful relationships and live a more fulfilling life. When you stop trying to please others and instead look first at the reflection in the mirror, you can expect significant progress in various aspects of your life. By setting boundaries, you create space for self-care, personal development, and growth. This, in turn, leads to improved mental and physical well-being. Additionally, when you give yourself permission to be you, it allows you to build a compassionate foundation with yourself and stronger relationships with others based on mutual respect and understanding. As you prioritize yourself and your needs, you are more capable of making choices aligned with your values, leading to a more fulfilling life overall. Living your days, where you are constantly under pressure to be everything to everyone, is going to put you six feet under faster than other things you are doing in life. Because it becomes an internal battle that you never get a break from.  So start caring for yourself before someone else dressed in blue scrubs has to. You will love your days more, because you are doing less people pleasing.    "Train for life.

You are playing yourself, your own highest standards, and when you reach your limits, that is the real joy." - Arthur Ashe This was Arthur Ashe's way of saying that the true opponent is not the person across the net, but yourself. These words hold profound meaning, reminding us that the path to greatness resides within, not in triumphing over others. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But as you know, this is not just about the tennis court; it's about going beyond mediocrity and striving for excellence in every aspect of our lives. Tennis, as many know, is more than just a physical sport. It tests our mental and emotional fortitude, making it a battle fought within our own hearts and minds. It is when we challenge ourselves and reach beyond our self-imposed limits that we experience the true joy of the game. Well, guess what? This philosophy echoes into our daily lives, encouraging us to embrace the concept of surpassing our own expectations. If you are going to live out this quote, that means you're setting high standards for yourself and refusing to settle for anything less. Often, you fall into the trap of complacency, accepting the status quo and shying away from the commitment required for greatness. However, by continuously striving to improve your skills, develop your mental resilience, and lay a solid foundation for your physical well-being, you uncover unfathomable depths that even you didn't know you had. The K.I.S.S. ~ The real joy! In our pursuit of excellence, you must learn to confront challenges head-on instead of shying away from them. Whether on the tennis court or in the game of life, obstacles are opportunities for growth and self-discovery. It is through adversity that we build character, resilience, and tenacity. By embracing challenges as stepping stones toward our goals, you empower yourself to rise above the ordinary and achieve the extraordinary. But what is the real joy that Arthur Ashe spoke of? It is the elation that arises from pushing yourself to your limits and accomplishing what you once believed was impossible. True fulfillment does not arise from defeating others, but from triumphing over your own self-doubt and limitations. It is a profound satisfaction that cannot be replicated, for it is the knowledge that you have given your all, conquered your personal boundaries, and emerged stronger and more resilient. Embracing Arthur Ashe's profound wisdom invites you to step onto the court of life with a newfound determination and commitment to unleashing your full potential. By raising the bar in your pursuit of greatness, facing challenges head-on, and seeking self-improvement relentlessly, you not only elevate your own game, but also inspire those around you to strive for their own dreams and aspirations. Let's remember that in tennis and in life, you are your truest opponent. By embracing this idea today and refusing to settle for mediocrity, you open yourself up to a world of endless possibilities. Experience the real joy that comes with transcending your own limits, and let it be a guiding force that propels you forward on your quest for excellence both on and off the court.   "Be present.

But don't you think you should take one if you need a little break?  In today's fast-paced and ever-demanding world, it can often feel like we're constantly running on autopilot, with no time or energy left for ourselves. The pressure to keep up with the hustle and bustle can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling burnt out and in desperate need of a break. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But here's the thing - taking a little break isn't just a luxury; it's a necessity for our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. As human beings, we are not meant to be in a constant state of busyness and productivity. We need time to rest, recharge, and reconnect with ourselves and our Creator. In fact, the Bible encourages us to pause and find solace in God's presence. In Psalm 46:10, it says, "Be still and know that I am God." This verse reminds us of the importance of taking a moment to simply be still, to reflect, and to regain perspective. But are you doing that? Are you realistically able to take a break when you need a little break? The K.I.S.S. ~ Take a little break without guilt! 1. Embrace the Power of Unplugging In this digital age, we are constantly bombarded with notifications, emails, and social media updates. The endless streams of information can leave us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from ourselves and our loved ones. Taking a break from screens and technology may seem challenging, but it can do wonders for our overall well-being. Set aside dedicated time each day to unplug, whether it's an hour of reading a book, taking a walk in nature, or engaging in a hobby you love. Disconnecting from the virtual world allows us to reconnect with the present moment and find inner peace. 2. Prioritize Self-Care Self-care isn't selfish; it's an essential practice that enables us to be the best version of ourselves. Taking care of our physical, emotional, and spiritual needs is crucial for maintaining overall wellness. Make time for activities that nurture your body, such as exercising, practicing yoga, or taking a relaxing bath. Engage in activities that bring you joy and promote a sense of inner peace, such as painting, writing, or meditating. By acknowledging our need for self-care, we can refill our cups and better serve those around us. 3. Cultivate Meaningful Connections One of the most rejuvenating ways to take a break is by surrounding ourselves with supportive and uplifting relationships. Carve out time in your schedule for quality interactions with your loved ones. Engage in meaningful conversations, share a meal together, or embark on a mini-adventure. These connections provide us with necessary moments of rest, where we can let go of our worries and find solace in the company of others. As Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 reminds us, "Two are better than one...if either of them falls, one can help the other up." Taking a little break from the chaos of life isn't a sign of weakness or laziness; it's an act of self-love and preservation. As we prioritize rest and rejuvenation, we find ourselves better equipped to tackle life's challenges and fulfill our God-given purposes. So, let's not shy away from taking those moments to slow down, breathe, and find solace in the healing power of rest.

But don't you think you should take one if you need a little break?  In today's fast-paced and ever-demanding world, it can often feel like we're constantly running on autopilot, with no time or energy left for ourselves. The pressure to keep up with the hustle and bustle can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling burnt out and in desperate need of a break. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But here's the thing - taking a little break isn't just a luxury; it's a necessity for our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. As human beings, we are not meant to be in a constant state of busyness and productivity. We need time to rest, recharge, and reconnect with ourselves and our Creator. In fact, the Bible encourages us to pause and find solace in God's presence. In Psalm 46:10, it says, "Be still and know that I am God." This verse reminds us of the importance of taking a moment to simply be still, to reflect, and to regain perspective. But are you doing that? Are you realistically able to take a break when you need a little break? The K.I.S.S. ~ Take a little break without guilt! 1. Embrace the Power of Unplugging In this digital age, we are constantly bombarded with notifications, emails, and social media updates. The endless streams of information can leave us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from ourselves and our loved ones. Taking a break from screens and technology may seem challenging, but it can do wonders for our overall well-being. Set aside dedicated time each day to unplug, whether it's an hour of reading a book, taking a walk in nature, or engaging in a hobby you love. Disconnecting from the virtual world allows us to reconnect with the present moment and find inner peace. 2. Prioritize Self-Care Self-care isn't selfish; it's an essential practice that enables us to be the best version of ourselves. Taking care of our physical, emotional, and spiritual needs is crucial for maintaining overall wellness. Make time for activities that nurture your body, such as exercising, practicing yoga, or taking a relaxing bath. Engage in activities that bring you joy and promote a sense of inner peace, such as painting, writing, or meditating. By acknowledging our need for self-care, we can refill our cups and better serve those around us. 3. Cultivate Meaningful Connections One of the most rejuvenating ways to take a break is by surrounding ourselves with supportive and uplifting relationships. Carve out time in your schedule for quality interactions with your loved ones. Engage in meaningful conversations, share a meal together, or embark on a mini-adventure. These connections provide us with necessary moments of rest, where we can let go of our worries and find solace in the company of others. As Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 reminds us, "Two are better than one...if either of them falls, one can help the other up." Taking a little break from the chaos of life isn't a sign of weakness or laziness; it's an act of self-love and preservation. As we prioritize rest and rejuvenation, we find ourselves better equipped to tackle life's challenges and fulfill our God-given purposes. So, let's not shy away from taking those moments to slow down, breathe, and find solace in the healing power of rest. As we do so, we honor ourselves, our relationships, and the One who designed us to thrive.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." ~ John 6:35 (NIV) Have you ever found yourself in the midst of a world filled with material possessions, yet still feeling an emptiness that they cannot fill? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

This longing goes beyond the physical cravings for bread and water; it reaches deep into the depths of our souls, yearning for spiritual sustenance. Just as our bodies require nourishment to sustain us, our souls also crave nourishment – not the kind that can be found on a plate or in a glass, but the kind that can only be found in Christ. Just imagine a banquet table, beautifully laid out with a variety of delectable dishes. The aroma wafts through the air, tempting our senses. We are drawn to each dish, anticipating that it will finally satisfy our hunger. Yet, amidst the abundance of choices, there is only one that truly fulfills our deepest cravings – the invitation from Christ to feast on His love, wisdom, and truth. The K.I.S.S. ~ The Bread of Life! When we turn to Christ, we discover a love that surpasses all understanding. It is a love that washes away our insecurities, fears, and doubts, and replaces them with a sense of belonging, purpose, and acceptance. It is a love that quenches the deepest longings of our hearts and brings true fulfillment. In addition to His love, Christ offers us His wisdom. We live in a world that bombards us with countless sources of information and advice, often leaving us confused and overwhelmed. But when we seek wisdom from Christ, we tap into a source that is timeless, unchanging, and perfect. His wisdom guides us on the right path, helps us make wise choices, and brings clarity to our lives. Furthermore, Christ offers us His truth. In a world filled with shifting opinions and subjective realities, the truth found in Christ is unchanging and unwavering. His truth provides a solid foundation that we can build our lives upon – a foundation of honesty, integrity, and righteousness. When we embrace His truth, we find freedom from the lies and illusions that surround us, and we are able to live in authentic alignment with who we were created to be. A Thought to Ponder Take a moment to reflect on where you have been looking to satisfy the hunger and thirst of your soul. Have you been pursuing temporary pleasures and material possessions that only leave you wanting more? How can you invite Jesus to fill those empty spaces within you today, and experience the enduring satisfaction that only He can provide? Embrace His love, seek His wisdom, and walk in His truth. By doing so, you will find the abundant life your soul longs for – a life filled with purpose, joy, and true fulfillment.   "Be present. Be incredible.

In the midst of challenging circumstances, it's common for emotions to run high. But it becomes even more challenging in marriage. Are your emotions the enemy? It's important to acknowledge that our emotions are not necessarily the enemy but rather valuable indicators of what we are experiencing internally. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    By gaining insight into our emotions and learning how to respond to them, we can promote healthier relationships and create a more peaceful atmosphere within our marriages. If you want to cool down quicker than you heat up, learn what makes you tick.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Learn what makes you tick! 1. Analyze Your Emotions: Take time to reflect on your emotions and identify the underlying reasons for them. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 4:23 (NIV), "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." By honestly assessing your emotions, you can better understand the root causes, such as unmet needs, unrealistic expectations, or unresolved conflicts. Consider journaling or discussing your emotions with a trusted friend to gain deeper insights into them. 2. Change How You Respond: Once you have gained awareness of your emotions, the next step is to change your response to them. This requires intentional effort and a willingness to seek guidance from God and His Word. Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV) encourages us, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Seek God's wisdom and rely on His strength to respond with love, grace, and self-control, rather than allowing anger or frustration to dictate your actions. 3. Deal with Your Emotions: Lastly, it's crucial to address your emotions in a healthy manner. This may involve open communication with your spouse, seeking professional counseling, or participating in marriage enrichment programs. Remember, Ephesians 4:26-27 (NIV) reminds us, "In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold." Engaging in constructive dialogue and seeking resolution can prevent resentment from building up and causing further damage. Embrace forgiveness, strive for understanding, and make the necessary changes to restore harmony within your marriage. BONUS James 1:19-20 (NIV) states, "My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires." This verse emphasizes the significance of listening attentively before responding and highlights the negative consequences of allowing anger to control your speech. And that means listening to how you sound, and what you can do to change how you are received. By practicing patience, humility, and self-control, we can avoid the destructive effects of anger and promote righteousness in our interactions with others. Remember, emotions do not have to be the enemy; they can serve as valuable indicators of our internal experiences. Use your emotions as the barometer of where you are within a situation. How much is something really bothering you? By analyzing them, recognizing your triggers and what is happening inside you that exposes how it shows up on the outside, changing how you respond, and actively dealing with your emotions, you can cultivate healthier emotional dynamics within your marriages. Trust in God's guidance, seek support when needed, and allow His love to shape your emotional journey as a married couple.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 4:23 (NIV), "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." By honestly assessing your emotions, you can better understand the root causes, such as unmet needs, unrealistic expectations, or unresolved conflicts. Consider journaling or discussing your emotions with a trusted friend to gain deeper insights into them. 2. Change How You Respond: Once you have gained awareness of your emotions, the next step is to change your response to them. This requires intentional effort and a willingness to seek guidance from God and His Word. Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV) encourages us, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Seek God's wisdom and rely on His strength to respond with love, grace, and self-control, rather than allowing anger or frustration to dictate your actions. 3. Deal with Your Emotions: Lastly, it's crucial to address your emotions in a healthy manner. This may involve open communication with your spouse, seeking professional counseling, or participating in marriage enrichment programs. Remember, Ephesians 4:26-27 (NIV) reminds us, "In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold." Engaging in constructive dialogue and seeking resolution can prevent resentment from building up and causing further damage. Embrace forgiveness, strive for understanding, and make the necessary changes to restore harmony within your marriage. BONUS James 1:19-20 (NIV) states, "My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires." This verse emphasizes the significance of listening attentively before responding and highlights the negative consequences of allowing anger to control your speech. And that means listening to how you sound, and what you can do to change how you are received. By practicing patience, humility, and self-control, we can avoid the destructive effects of anger and promote righteousness in our interactions with others. Remember, emotions do not have to be the enemy; they can serve as valuable indicators of our internal experiences. Use your emotions as the barometer of where you are within a situation. How much is something really bothering you? By analyzing them, recognizing your triggers and what is happening inside you that exposes how it shows up on the outside, changing how you respond, and actively dealing with your emotions, you can cultivate healthier emotional dynamics within your marriages. Trust in God's guidance, seek support when needed, and allow His love to shape your emotional journey as a married couple.

William Arther Ward once said, "Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them." It's a new chapter for parents and even grandparents. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    To be completely present and fully engaged with the children we love. Here are three things we can do to navigate the season ahead and cherish the moments that are right in front of us. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cherish the moments! 1. Embrace Mindfulness With the hustle and bustle of back-to-school preparations, it's easy to get caught up in the chaos. However, taking just a few moments each day to practice mindfulness can make a world of difference. Whether it's through meditation, deep breathing exercises, or simply grounding yourself in the present moment, mindfulness helps us to slow down, appreciate the present, and create deeper connections with our children. By being fully present and engaged, we can savor each precious moment and forge stronger bonds. EXAMPLES of MINDFULNESS PRACTICES - Practice meditation: Set aside a few minutes each day to sit in a quiet space, close your eyes, and focus on your breathing. Allow yourself to let go of any distracting thoughts and be fully present in the current moment. - Engage in sensory experiences: Take a mindful walk in nature, paying attention to the sights, sounds, and smells around you. Feel the sensation of each step as it connects with the ground. Engaging your senses helps anchor you in the present moment. - Implement digital detox: Allocate dedicated periods of time each day to disconnect from technology. Put your phone on silent, turn off notifications, and create tech-free zones in your home where you can engage with your family without distractions. 2. Prioritize Communication As the new school year brings forth a multitude of changes, effective communication becomes paramount. Take the time to establish open lines of communication with your children, their teachers, and other parents. By staying informed about their schoolwork, extracurricular activities, and social interactions, you can actively participate in your children's lives. Regularly engaging in meaningful conversations with your children not only shows your support but also provides opportunities for growth, learning, and valuable bonding experiences. EXAMPLES of COMMUNICATION - Schedule regular family meetings: Set aside a specific time each week to gather as a family and discuss any pertinent matters. Encourage everyone to share their thoughts, concerns, and updates. This fosters open communication and keeps everyone involved and informed. - Create a parent-teacher communication system: Establish a reliable method of communication with your children's teachers, such as email or a class app. Regularly check in to inquire about their progress, any upcoming events or projects, and any concerns or questions you may have. This ensures a strong partnership between parents and educators. - Organize playdates or parent meetups: Arrange opportunities for your children to interact with their peers outside of school. This allows for socialization, fosters friendships, and opens channels for parents to connect, exchange experiences, and support one another. 3. Create Rituals and Traditions Amidst the hustle and bustle, it's essential to create rituals and traditions that foster a sense of togetherness within your family. Whether it's a weekly game night, a special Sunday brunch, or even taking part in volunteering activities as a family, these rituals provide stability, promote family bonding, and can be cherished for years to come. By creating intentional moments filled with love and connection, you ensure that you don't miss out on what's truly important – quality time with the ones you love the most. EXAMPLES of RITUALS &amp; TRADITIONS - Family movie or game nights: Designate a specific day or evening each week for a cozy movie or game night at home. Gather snacks, choose a movie or play a favorite board game together, and enjoy quality time as a family. - Sunday brunch or breakfast traditions: Establish a special routine for weekend mornings, such as preparing a delicious brunch or breakfast together. Encourage everyone to participate in the cooking or meal preparation process, and use this time to talk, laugh, and bond. - Take part in volunteer activities as a family: Find local volunteer opportunities that align with your family's values and interests. Dedicate a day or a few hours each month to engage in these activities together. This not only gives back to the community but also teaches important values of empathy, kindness, and social responsibility to your children. By incorporating these examples into your life, you can fully embrace mindfulness, prioritize communication, and create meaningful rituals and traditions, ensuring that you stay grounded and cherish the moments that are right in front of you during the back-to-school season. As the back-to-school season unfolds, let's not allow the busyness and changes to distract us from what truly matters – being fully present and engaged with our children. By embracing mindfulness, prioritizing communication, and creating rituals and traditions, we can navigate the season with grace and fully immerse ourselves in the joy and growth that it brings. Remember, the moments we treasure are the ones we can never get back, so let's be all in and make the most of this beautiful journey of parenthood.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But it comes with the price: One step at a time leads to miles of greatness. Live boldly and fearlessly! In a world often characterized by the relentless pursuit of perfection and flawless execution, it's easy to become disheartened by our own perceived shortcomings and failures.

This can lead us to question our own worth and potential, leaving us feeling stuck and hesitant to embrace our own greatness. But amidst this struggle, there is a beacon of hope. It lies in the realization that true strength and impact do not come from conforming to a rigid mold of perfection, but from embracing your unique flaws and harnessing them as sources of power. In accepting your imperfections, you can unleash your true potential and live in your greatness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live boldly and fearlessly! The Magnificent Tree by Kristianne Wargo "In the depths of a serene forest, there stood a magnificent tree. Its bark weathered and rough, branches reaching towards the heavens in an almost haphazard pattern. To the casual observer, it may have seemed imperfect, with its missing limbs and a gentle lean in the trunk. Yet, this tree was a symbol of strength and resilience. It stood tall, unwavering, providing shade to weary travelers, shelter to woodland creatures, and releasing the purest oxygen into the air. Its presence brought forth a sense of tranquility and beauty that could not be denied. In stark contrast, a symmetrical and flawlessly balanced tree stood nearby. Every branch was positioned with meticulous precision, displaying its finest attributes for all to see. But as the sun's rays beamed through its perfectly aligned canopy, it cast a cold and calculated shadow. The imperfect tree, however, embraced its flaws. It recognized that the essence of its greatness lay not in its straight trunk or flawless branches, but in its ability to adapt and overcome any obstacle. It knew that true strength comes from acknowledging and embracing one's imperfections." Just like the imperfect tree, we all possess unique flaws. But it is these imperfections that make us truly remarkable. Our greatness exists in spite of our shortcomings, in the spaces where we stumble, and in the cracks where the light shines through. In a world that often emphasizes perfection and conformity, it is vital to remember that nothing in nature is flawless. The flowers that bloom, each with their own unique shape and color, do not strive for uniformity. The rivers that carve their way through mountains do not follow a predetermined path. And the mighty oak tree, with its majestic presence, thrives with missing branches and a gentle lean. So, if you find yourself weary and disheartened by the pursuit of perfection, remember the trees. Remember that your worth and greatness are not defined by how well you conform to society's standards, but by how authentically you embrace your unique self. Embrace your quirks and idiosyncrasies. Embrace the scars and the lessons they represent. Embrace your flaws, for they are the very essence of your greatness. They are not signs of weakness but the very markers of your strength. Live boldly and fearlessly, knowing that your imperfections are not hindrances, but catalysts for your extraordinary journey.   "Be present. Be incredible.

If your comfort zones aren't treating you well, prepare to pivot.  Because once in a while, it's important to step outside of your comfort zone and try something new. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As we age, our bodies go through changes, and what used to work may not be as effective anymore. Our nutritional needs evolve, our physical capabilities may shift, and our sleep patterns may be disrupted. To adapt to these changes, we need to be willing to explore different approaches and embrace the unknown. The first step in preparing to pivot is recognizing that old habits die hard. It's natural for us to gravitate towards what we know, what feels safe and familiar. But true growth comes from challenging ourselves and pushing beyond our boundaries. Instead of fearing the unknown, embrace it as an opportunity for growth and discovery. When it comes to nutrition, it's important to listen to your body and give it what it needs. As we age, our bodies may require different nutrients and may be less tolerant of certain foods. Rather than adhering to rigid diets or strict meal plans, focus on nourishing your body with whole, nutrient-dense foods. Incorporate a variety of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats into your meals. Pay attention to how certain foods make you feel and adjust accordingly. Exercise is another area where we need to be open to change. Our bodies may no longer respond to the same type of exercise routines that we used to do. Instead of sticking to what feels comfortable, challenge yourself with new workouts and training techniques. Try incorporating strength training to maintain muscle mass, balance and flexibility exercises to improve mobility, and cardiovascular activities that get your heart rate up. Remember, the goal is not to be perfect but to consistently show up for yourself and make progress. Lastly, never underestimate the power of quality sleep. As we age, our sleep patterns may change, and getting enough rest becomes even more important. Establish a relaxing bedtime routine, create a sleep-friendly environment, and make quality sleep a priority. If you struggle with sleep disturbances, consider consulting with a healthcare professional for guidance and support. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prepare to pivot! Preparing to pivot requires a mindset of openness, self-reflection, and a willingness to experiment. Here are three key steps to begin identifying what isn't working and pivot toward what can escalate your desired goals: 1. Self-Reflection and Assessment Take some time to reflect on your current routines, habits, and results. Ask yourself honest questions: What has been working well for you? What hasn't? Are there areas where you feel stagnant or unsatisfied? This self-assessment will provide clarity on what needs to change for you to move forward. 2. Seek New Perspectives and Knowledge To pivot successfully, it's essential to seek new perspectives and knowledge outside of your comfort zone. Engage in self-education by reading books, listening to podcasts, or attending workshops related to your goals. Explore different viewpoints, research alternative methods, and seek advice from experts in the field. This will broaden your understanding and help you discover new approaches. 3. Identify and Challenge Limiting Beliefs Often, we limit ourselves by sticking to what we perceive as "typical" or "normal." To escalate what you are going after, challenge these assumptions and open yourself to unconventional changes. Consider areas where you have felt resistance or where you haven't explored fully. It could be trying a new form of exercise, adopting a different approach to problem-solving, or experimenting with innovative nutritional strategies. By stepping outside of the conventional, you may uncover transformations and breakthroughs you hadn't anticipated. Remember, preparing to pivot requires a growth mindset – one that embraces change, accepts challenges, and remains open to new possibilities. It's not about striving for perfection but rather being adaptable and willing to learn from both successes and failures. Cheers to progress! By actively seeking, reflecting, and making intentional changes, you set yourself on the path to discovering what works best for you and unlocking your full potential.  So, prepare to pivot, and let the journey of self-discovery and transformation begin.

If your comfort zones aren't treating you well, prepare to pivot.  Because once in a while, it's important to step outside of your comfort zone and try something new.

Our nutritional needs evolve, our physical capabilities may shift, and our sleep patterns may be disrupted. To adapt to these changes, we need to be willing to explore different approaches and embrace the unknown. The first step in preparing to pivot is recognizing that old habits die hard. It's natural for us to gravitate towards what we know, what feels safe and familiar. But true growth comes from challenging ourselves and pushing beyond our boundaries. Instead of fearing the unknown, embrace it as an opportunity for growth and discovery. When it comes to nutrition, it's important to listen to your body and give it what it needs. As we age, our bodies may require different nutrients and may be less tolerant of certain foods. Rather than adhering to rigid diets or strict meal plans, focus on nourishing your body with whole, nutrient-dense foods. Incorporate a variety of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats into your meals. Pay attention to how certain foods make you feel and adjust accordingly. Exercise is another area where we need to be open to change. Our bodies may no longer respond to the same type of exercise routines that we used to do. Instead of sticking to what feels comfortable, challenge yourself with new workouts and training techniques. Try incorporating strength training to maintain muscle mass, balance and flexibility exercises to improve mobility, and cardiovascular activities that get your heart rate up.

Smooth is fast." Embrace the graceful race. It seems that pushing ourselves harder, moving faster, and striving to achieve everything at once is the way to instant gratification. No one wants to wait and put in the work. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Carl Lewis, renowned for his exceptional speed and athleticism, had an insight that went beyond the conventional notions of just running faster. He understood that true speed came from finding the balance between pace, precision, and grace. His secret didn't lie in recklessly sprinting ahead; rather, it was in embracing a consistent, deliberate approach. In a world where being the "bull in the china closet" may seem enticing, Carl Lewis proved that it isn't always the best method. He consistently performed at his best when he ran at 85% effort, defying the traditional belief that faster is better. He understood that by staying within his limits, maintaining a rhythm, and executing his movements with finesse, his performance improved exponentially. The wisdom of "slow is smooth" goes beyond the realm of athletics; it holds true in various aspects of life. You often find yourself rushing through your tasks, thinking that faster completion equates to success. But in your haste, you overlook the importance of precision and attention to detail. You stumble upon unnecessary hurdles and miss out on opportunities to truly excel. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace the graceful race! Imagine a potter molding clay to perfection. The delicate hands of the artist move gracefully, gently shaping and refining the clay. The potter knows that rushing this process will only lead to flaws and imperfections, so they embrace each stroke with intent and purpose. Similarly, when we adopt a more deliberate pace, we give ourselves the space to grow and evolve, allowing room for creativity and insight to flourish. By embracing the philosophy of "smooth is fast," we acknowledge that rushing through life's challenges often leads to inefficient outcomes. When you take the time to strategize, plan, and execute your actions with grace, you find that the end results surpass your expectations. Difficulties become opportunities for growth, and setbacks transform into stepping stones toward success. Slow down, take a breath, and observe the grace in each movement. Find your rhythm, understand your limits, and allow yourself the time to operate at your optimal level. Remember that haste may seem appealing, but the steady, deliberate approach often leads to sustainable achievements. Don't forget the power of taking your time in a world that values speed. Just as Carl Lewis found his fastest at 85%, you, too, can discover your own version of excellence by aligning your efforts with a mindful tempo. Embrace the power of smoothness, and you'll find that your fast is no longer a hurried scramble, but an awe-inspiring journey towards greatness. Embrace the graceful race.   "Be present.

Greatness is not built upon feelings, but on the acceptance of what is needed and the actions that must follow. In our pursuit of success, we often prioritize our feelings over actions, believing that certain emotions will lead us to the desired outcome. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, genuine success is not founded on fleeting feelings but on the acceptance of our current situation and taking intentional steps toward progress. Shift your focus from feelings to acceptance, enabling you to forge a path to greatness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Shift your focus! 1. Embrace Reality Often, we resist accepting the reality of our circumstances because it may not align with our desired feelings or expectations. However, true progress begins with acknowledging where we are currently. Embracing reality requires introspection and a willingness to confront both the strengths and weaknesses within ourselves. By embracing the truth, we open ourselves up to possibilities for growth and improvement. Action Steps: - Reflect on your current situation: Take time to evaluate your present state objectively. Consider your strengths, weaknesses, and the areas that require improvement. - Seek feedback: Reach out to trusted mentors, friends, or colleagues who can provide honest insights about your strengths and areas of growth. This feedback can help you gain a clearer perspective on where you stand. - Practice gratitude: Cultivate gratitude for your achievements and the progress you have made, no matter how small. This mindset shift will help you move forward with a positive outlook and enhance your ability to accept your current circumstances. 2. Set Goals Mindfully While goal-setting is important, it's essential to shift our focus from the feelings associated with achieving those goals to the actions required to make them a reality. By setting goals mindfully, we direct our energy towards actionable steps, rather than being solely driven by an ephemeral sense of accomplishment. Action Steps: - Define actionable goals: Break down your overarching goals into smaller, actionable steps. This will help you create a roadmap that is more grounded in practicality. - Focus on the process: Shift your attention to the actions needed to achieve your goals. Embrace the day-to-day effort and progress rather than fixating on the end result. - Develop a growth mindset: Cultivate a mindset that views challenges and setbacks as opportunities for growth. Embracing a growth mindset will help you stay motivated and resilient, even in the face of obstacles. 3. Embrace Constant Learning Success is not a destination but a continuous journey. By prioritizing learning and personal growth, we can move forward with acceptance, guided by a mindset of continuous improvement. Embracing constant learning empowers individuals to adapt, evolve, and seize new opportunities. Action Steps: - Cultivate curiosity: Develop a genuine thirst for knowledge and seek out new experiences and insights. Be open to exploring different perspectives and ideas. - Invest in personal development: Engage in activities that foster personal growth, such as reading books, attending workshops or webinars, and surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals. - Reflect and iterate: Regularly evaluate your progress and the lessons you have learned along the way. Make adjustments when necessary, adapting your approach based on insights gained from previous experiences. Shifting your focus from feelings to acceptance is a pivotal step toward achieving greatness. By embracing reality, setting goals mindfully, and embracing constant learning, individuals can build a solid foundation for success. Acceptance is not about settling; it's about acknowledging where we are and taking purposeful actions to unleash our true potential. Let go of the illusory feelings, take action, and unlock your path to greatness.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Greatness is not built upon feelings, but on the acceptance of what is needed and the actions that must follow. In our pursuit of success, we often prioritize our feelings over actions, believing that certain emotions will lead us to the desired outcome. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, genuine success is not founded on fleeting feelings but on the acceptance of our current situation and taking intentional steps toward progress. Shift your focus from feelings to acceptance, enabling you to forge a path to greatness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Shift your focus! 1. Embrace Reality Often, we resist accepting the reality of our circumstances because it may not align with our desired feelings or expectations. However, true progress begins with acknowledging where we are currently. Embracing reality requires introspection and a willingness to confront both the strengths and weaknesses within ourselves. By embracing the truth, we open ourselves up to possibilities for growth and improvement. Action Steps: - Reflect on your current situation: Take time to evaluate your present state objectively. Consider your strengths, weaknesses, and the areas that require improvement. - Seek feedback: Reach out to trusted mentors, friends, or colleagues who can provide honest insights about your strengths and areas of growth. This feedback can help you gain a clearer perspective on where you stand. - Practice gratitude: Cultivate gratitude for your achievements and the progress you have made, no matter how small. This mindset shift will help you move forward with a positive outlook and enhance your ability to accept your current circumstances. 2. Set Goals Mindfully While goal-setting is important, it's essential to shift our focus from the feelings associated with achieving those goals to the actions required to make them a reality. By setting goals mindfully, we direct our energy towards actionable steps, rather than being solely driven by an ephemeral sense of accomplishment. Action Steps: - Define actionable goals: Break down your overarching goals into smaller, actionable steps. This will help you create a roadmap that is more grounded in practicality. - Focus on the process: Shift your attention to the actions needed to achieve your goals. Embrace the day-to-day effort and progress rather than fixating on the end result. - Develop a growth mindset: Cultivate a mindset that views challenges and setbacks as opportunities for growth. Embracing a growth mindset will help you stay motivated and resilient, even in the face of obstacles. 3. Embrace Constant Learning Success is not a destination but a continuous journey. By prioritizing learning and personal growth, we can move forward with acceptance, guided by a mindset of continuous improvement. Embracing constant learning empowers individuals to adapt, evolve, and seize new opportunities. Action Steps: - Cultivate curiosity: Develop a genuine thirst for knowledge and seek out new experiences and insights. Be open to exploring different perspectives and ideas. - Invest in personal development: Engage in activities that foster personal growth, such as reading books, attending workshops or webinars, and surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals. - Reflect and iterate: Regularly evaluate your progress and the lessons you have learned along the way. Make adjustments when necessary, adapting your approach based on insights gained from previous experiences. Shifting your focus from feelings to acceptance is a pivotal step toward achieving greatness. By embracing reality, setting goals mindfully, and embracing constant learning,...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1531</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,dreams,entrepreneurs,forgiveness,goals,gratitude,greatness,happiness,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,presence,productivity,purpose,relationships,success,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/9f2a7bfa2bb4d496dc9449d30a5ba956.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3129 Why Do You Hide?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3129-why-do-you-hide--56525287</link><description><![CDATA[During these times of doubt and uncertainty, shame covers the heart, and hope is diminished.  But why do you hide? God is always by your side. I wanted to take a moment to encourage you in your faith journey, especially during times of doubt and uncertainty. When you have new seasons, that creates a discomfort that sets you off balance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

In fact, He desires to see you grow and be set free from every captive thought that prevents you from experiencing His truth and love. In moments when darkness seems overwhelming, and struggles persist, know that Jesus stands ever-present, ready to walk with you toward the light of His truth. He understands your questions, your doubts, and your fears. He doesn't want you to isolate yourself or carry the weight of unbelief on your own. Instead, He invites you to offer up everything to Him, including disappointment, questions, and fears, as a holy sacrifice. The K.I.S.S. ~ Why do you hide? Remember, simply relying on self-effort won't resolve unbelief. It is through surrendering your doubts and fears to Jesus that you make room for His truth to settle deep within your heart. By trusting in His love and seeking His guidance, you can find peace and reassurance, even in the midst of uncertainty. It is important to remember the assurance we find in God's Word. As it says in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." This verse reminds us that we can trust in God's faithfulness, even when we don't fully understand everything. My dear friend, hold on to hope and continue seeking God's truth. He will never leave you because of your questions. Instead, He desires to walk with you, guide you, and help you grow in your faith. Allow His truth to shine through the darkness and bring forth a renewed sense of faith and hope within you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, the challenges of the world can often test even the strongest relationships. You cannot take for granted one moment of your relationship with your spouse. Next to your relationship with God, that is the most important one. Because your family is only as strong as your marriage. Now, that's a strong statement. But in today's world, there are so many distractions and temptations that you have to be ever so diligent and consistent in pouring into your marriage. You deserve it, and so does your spouse. So what Pastor Duane is saying here is that you must prioritize now, and not wait until there is a crisis. Prioritize Your Marriage NOW! The K.I.S.S. ~ Prioritize your marriage NOW! 1. Communicate Effectively Open and honest communication forms the backbone of a strong and thriving marriage. It is the foundation upon which trust and understanding are built. To establish strong anchor lines through communication, spouses should: - Active Listening: Listening attentively to your partner's words, feelings, and concerns without interruption fosters a deep sense of validation. It shows respect, builds empathy, and strengthens the emotional bond between partners. - Expressing Emotions Constructively: Sharing thoughts, needs, and emotions in a considerate and positive manner helps to bridge any gaps in understanding. Avoiding criticism and defensiveness creates a safe space where both partners feel heard and valued. - Regular Check-Ins: Initiate open conversations regularly to discuss the highs and lows of each other's lives. Whether through date nights, walk-and-talks, or simply setting aside dedicated time to connect, these check-ins establish a supportive atmosphere that strengthens the marital bond. 2. Cultivate Trust Trust forms the bedrock of a thriving marriage, nourishing emotional intimacy and fostering a sense of security. To cultivate trust and establish strong anchor lines, spouses should: - Honesty and Transparency: Being truthful and open about both the positive and challenging aspects of life cultivates an environment of trust. Sharing vulnerabilities and fears often lead to a deeper connection and a shared commitment to navigating through life together. - Consistency and Reliability: Showing up consistently and following through on commitments demonstrates reliability. Being someone that your partner can depend on creates a strong sense of security and stability in the relationship. - Respecting Boundaries: Respecting each other's boundaries and personal space is essential for building trust. It shows a deep understanding and acceptance of your partner's individuality while fostering mutual respect. 3. Prioritize Quality Time Amidst the busyness of life, making intentional efforts to spend quality time together is vital for nurturing a thriving marriage. To establish strong anchor lines through quality time, spouses should: - Date Nights: Regularly scheduling date nights allows partners to reconnect and create cherished memories. It provides an opportunity to prioritize each other, fostering a deeper emotional bond. - Shared Hobbies and Interests: Exploring shared hobbies and interests enhances the quality of time spent together. Engaging in activities that both partners enjoy helps to strengthen the sense of companionship and understanding within the marriage. - Mindful Presence: Being fully present during moments spent together, whether it's during conversations, meals, or shared experiences, is crucial. Dedicating uninterrupted time and actively engaging in communication helps to deepen the emotional connection between partners. I cannot stress enough the key to a strong marriage is the foundation you build. And that comes from building strong anchor lines in your marriage. You've got to have a continuous and intentional process that keeps the line of communication open, cultivates trust, and prioritizes quality time together. If you have these three, you are on your way to a solid foundation. Now, I believe you have to have it all in the fabric of God. But you can thrive, regardless of what you've been through in your marriage up until today, this moment, do this and you will be on your way to ensuring a thriving and lifelong bond. Remember, there's no time like the present to strengthen the anchor lines connecting two hearts in love.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Being someone that your partner can depend on creates a strong sense of security and stability in the relationship. - Respecting Boundaries: Respecting each other's boundaries and personal space is essential for building trust. It shows a deep understanding and acceptance of your partner's individuality while fostering mutual respect. 3. Prioritize Quality Time Amidst the busyness of life, making intentional efforts to spend quality time together is vital for nurturing a thriving marriage. To establish strong anchor lines through quality time, spouses should: - Date Nights: Regularly scheduling date nights allows partners to reconnect and create cherished memories. It provides an opportunity to prioritize each other, fostering a deeper emotional bond. - Shared Hobbies and Interests: Exploring shared hobbies and interests enhances the quality of time spent together. Engaging in activities that both partners enjoy helps to strengthen the sense of companionship and understanding within the marriage. - Mindful Presence: Being fully present during moments spent together, whether it's during...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1356</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,conflict,couples,faith,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/a8d828b8f5101aced17dc0e8c20a09c2.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3127 We Are Alone In This Together</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3127-we-are-alone-in-this-together--56510538</link><description><![CDATA[Raising kids can often feel like an overwhelming journey. But you can stay grounded in knowing that we're alone in this together. Time to buddy up with your partner and impact the kids you've been gifted. Part of parenting comes with not navigating it alone. However, the truth is that you can think you're in this together, and be just that. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    By joining forces and supporting one another, moms and dads can create a strong family foundation that not only benefits the children but also strengthens the bond between partners. With back-to-school season upon us, there's no better time to explore the invaluable benefits of being on the same team. Be on the same team!  The K.I.S.S. ~ Be on the same team! There are many ways that moms and dads can support each other, even in moments when they might feel alone. But when you work together, even if you are alone, that puts you all on the same page.  Hence, we're alone in this together. 1. Create a Unified Parenting Approach One of the most effective ways to support each other in raising kids is by establishing a unified parenting approach. Sit down together and discuss parenting goals, values, and expectations. By aligning on strategies such as discipline techniques, routines, and communication styles, parents can create a consistent and harmonious environment for their children. This unified approach will not only provide stability for the kids but also promote a collaborative mindset between moms and dads. 2. Share Responsibilities Parenting can be a demanding and time-consuming task, leaving moms and dads feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. Sharing responsibilities can lighten the load and ensure that both partners have an equal opportunity to bond with their children. By dividing tasks such as school pickups, homework help, meal planning, and extracurricular activities, moms and dads can support each other while fostering a sense of unity and dependability. This division of labor also allows each parent to have moments of respite and self-care, leading to a healthier and happier family dynamic. 3. Prioritize Quality Time Together In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's essential for moms and dads to prioritize quality time together. Parenthood is an incredible journey, but it's crucial not to lose sight of the partnership that laid its foundation. By setting aside regular date nights, weekend getaways, or even moments to simply enjoy each other's company, parents can strengthen their bond and remind themselves why they embarked on this journey together. Making time for each other outside the realm of parenting creates a sense of camaraderie, reignites the flame of romance, and serves as a powerful reminder that, indeed, "we're alone in this together." Parenthood may sometimes make moms and dads feel alone, but by acknowledging the strength found in togetherness, parents can create a supportive environment that nurtures both their children and their relationship. By establishing a unified parenting approach, sharing responsibilities, and prioritizing quality time together, moms and dads can stand as a united front, ready to face any challenge that comes their way. As back-to-school season approaches, let's remember the importance of being on the same team and enjoy the journey of raising kids. Because we're alone in this together.   "Be present. Be incredible.

In the quiet moments of our lives, we often find ourselves consumed by worries about the future. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    We fret and fear about what tomorrow might bring, anxiously trying to control every aspect of our lives. But amidst this whirlwind of worry, we often forget the power that lies within us — the strength to face any challenge and find solace in the present moment. Worry is this force that ignites fear and drains our energy, clouds our judgment, and diminishes our ability to live fully in the present moment. It is like a leaky faucet that slowly drips away our strength, leaving us depleted and unable to tackle the challenges that lie ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ The beauty of today! In the midst of life's uncertainties, it's easy to find ourselves surrendering to worry rather than embracing hope. Every day, it feels like the weight of the world sits heavily on our shoulders, dragging us down into a never-ending cycle of doubt and anxiety. But amidst the chaos, there lies a glimmer of hope - a path towards reclaiming our inner strength and finding solace in the power of the present. Mindfulness, the art of grounding ourselves in the present moment, holds the key to breaking free from the chains of worry. By consciously cultivating awareness and directing our attention to the here and now, we quiet the noise that clamors for our attention. Mindfulness allows us to cut through the fog of anxiety and focus on what truly matters, granting us peace amidst the storm. Often, our worries stem from a narrow and limited perspective. We become so fixated on a single viewpoint that we fail to see the potential for new possibilities and solutions. But by consciously shifting our perspective, we open ourselves up to a world of expanded understanding. We invite fresh insights and embrace a broader outlook, unlocking the doors to hope and resilience. Gratitude, too, offers a powerful antidote to anxiety. When we take the time to truly appreciate the blessings and joys that surround us, we shift our attention away from fear and into a space of appreciation. In this space, we find our spirits uplifted, and our inner strength fortified. With every expression of gratitude, we grow closer to realizing the depths of our resilience and the abundance of goodness that exists within and around us. It's important not to carry the burdens of worry alone. We have an innate need for connection and understanding, and sharing our worries with trusted friends, family, or mentors can bring immense relief. Their guidance, reassurance, and different perspectives provide us with the comfort and solace that we seek. Through their support, we begin to understand that we are not alone in our struggles, and together, we can overcome even the greatest challenges. However, mere contemplation and sharing our worries will not bring about the change we long for. Action is the catalyst that propels us forward. Although worry may try to paralyze us, we have the power to shift our focus toward productive action. By breaking down our concerns into manageable steps, we regain a sense of control and take hold of our destiny. Each small step strengthens our resolve, emboldening us to face the future with hope and resilience. It is crucial to remember that worry deceives us, convincing us that it is a reasonable reaction to the uncertainties that life presents. Yet, it is in worrying that we rob ourselves of the power to fully appreciate and grow in the present. Take hold of  Corrie Ten Boom's wisdom and refuse to let worry empty today of its strength. May we find the courage to live fully and unapologetically in the present moment, to love deeply and authentically, and to seek solace in the beauty that surrounds us.   "Be present. Be incredible.

So how do you create a new routine that works for you? Building a consistent routine not only helps us stay organized and efficient but also nurtures our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Let's explore the steps to create a routine that works seamlessly with your new season, ensuring the consistency needed to thrive. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a routine that works for you! 1. Assess and Adapt To create a routine that aligns with your new season, take some time to assess your current lifestyle and identify areas for improvement. Reflect on your goals, commitments, and obligations related to school, work, family, and personal growth. Identify any pain points or issues you encountered in the past to avoid repeating the same mistakes. Recognize the unique opportunities and challenges this new season brings and adapt your routine accordingly. Biblical Reference: "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" - Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV) 2. Prioritize Self-Care Consistency thrives in an environment where self-care takes center stage. It is vital to take care of yourself to better serve others. Prioritize activities that rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul, such as exercise, quality sleep, healthy nutrition, meditation, and spending time in nature. These practices enhance your overall well-being, reduce stress, and increase your productivity, allowing you to stay focused and energized throughout the day. Biblical Reference: "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (ESV) 3. Find Your Support System Navigating a new season can be challenging, but you don't have to do it alone. Surround yourself with a supportive community of like-minded individuals who share similar goals and values. They can provide valuable guidance, encouragement, and accountability. Seek out local wellness groups, join online forums, or consider partnering with a trusted friend or mentor who can help you stay committed to your wellness routine. Biblical Reference: "Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion." - Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (NASB) In your quest to "create your now" in this new season, remember to embrace the concept of progress, not perfection. With time, patience, and a steadfast commitment to your well-being, you will succeed in creating a routine that supports your holistic growth. Take the first step towards your wellness journey today by incorporating these three key elements: Assess and Adapt, Prioritize Self-Care, and Find Your Support System. By doing so, you will be well-positioned to thrive in this new season, creating a positive and balanced lifestyle. Wishing you a transformative and fulfilling back-to-school season!

So how do you create a new routine that works for you? Building a consistent routine not only helps us stay organized and efficient but also nurtures our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Let's explore the steps to create a routine that works seamlessly with your new season, ensuring the consistency needed to thrive. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a routine that works for you! 1. Assess and Adapt To create a routine that aligns with your new season, take some time to assess your current lifestyle and identify areas for improvement. Reflect on your goals, commitments, and obligations related to school, work, family, and personal growth. Identify any pain points or issues you encountered in the past to avoid repeating the same mistakes. Recognize the unique opportunities and challenges this new season brings and adapt your routine accordingly. Biblical Reference: "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" - Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV) 2. Prioritize Self-Care Consistency thrives in an environment where self-care takes center stage. It is vital to take care of yourself to better serve others. Prioritize activities that rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul, such as exercise, quality sleep, healthy nutrition, meditation, and spending time in nature. These practices enhance your overall well-being, reduce stress, and increase your productivity, allowing you to stay focused and energized throughout the day. Biblical Reference: "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (ESV) 3. Find Your Support System Navigating a new season can be challenging, but you don't have to do it alone. Surround yourself with a supportive community of like-minded individuals who share similar goals and values. They can provide valuable guidance, encouragement, and accountability. Seek out local wellness groups, join online forums, or consider partnering with a trusted friend or mentor who can help you stay committed to your wellness routine. Biblical Reference: "Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion." - Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (NASB) In your quest to "create your now" in this new season, remember to embrace the concept of progress, not perfection. With time, patience, and a steadfast commitment to your well-being, you will succeed in creating a routine that supports your holistic growth. Take the first step towards your wellness journey today by incorporating these three key elements: Assess and Adapt, Prioritize Self-Care, and Find Your Support System. By doing so, you will be well-positioned to thrive in this new season, creating a positive and balanced lifestyle. Wishing you a transformative and fulfilling back-to-school season!

It is during these moments that you adapt with grace. It is easy to be hard on yourself when you face failure. You often focus on your mistakes, criticizing yourself for not meeting your own expectations. But, you must remember that failure is not a reflection of your worth or ability. It is simply a detour on your path to success. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    As human beings, we constantly evolve and grow. We are not meant to stay stagnant; instead, we are on a continuous journey toward becoming the best version of ourselves. And this journey requires adaptation. We need to be open to change, embrace challenges, and learn to adapt with grace. Adaptation is not about changing who you are at your core; it is about being flexible and adjusting your approach when faced with obstacles. Just like a tree sways in the wind, you must learn to bend without breaking. By adapting with grace, you allow yourself the space to learn and grow, nurturing the seeds of resilience within you. So in times of failure, it is essential to practice self-compassion. Instead of engaging in negative self-talk, you need to remind yourself that everyone faces setbacks. It is part of the human experience whether we like it or not. By being gentle and kind to yourself, you can learn from your mistakes and use them as stepping stones toward success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Adapt with grace! Also, during times of adaptation, you may discover hidden strengths and talents you never knew you possessed. It is in these moments that you tap into your resilience, finding the courage to rewrite your narratives and forge a new path forward. When you embrace change and adapt with grace, you create opportunities for growth and transformation. As you navigate the unpredictable waters of life, let's remember the words of the wise: "Adapt with grace." These words remind us to approach challenges and failures with resilience and compassion. You are not defined by your setbacks but rather by how you rise above them. Just as a butterfly emerges from its cocoon, you too can transform and soar to new heights. Embrace the detours, trust the process, and have faith in your ability to adapt with grace. Remember, it is in the challenges that you find your true strength and discover the limitless possibilities that await us. So, embrace the journey, adapt with grace, and let your light shine as you become who you were created to be.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Because I'm sure you've asked for more from Him than giving Him the praise He deserves. Today, I want to remind you of the power and importance of offering gratitude and adoration to our Heavenly Father. It's easy to get swallowed up by everything that's going on in the world, and you lose sight of who's in control. And In a world where you often seek to present your needs and requests before God, it is crucial that you also understand the significance of praising Him for who He is and what He has done. The K.I.S.S. ~ A Sacrifice of Praise! 1. Understanding the Nature of a Sacrifice: Our journey as Christians is centered around sacrifice. Jesus Christ Himself was the ultimate sacrifice for our sins, offering His life to bring salvation to the world. In light of His sacrificial love, we are called to mirror this sacrificial nature in our lives. What better way to do so than by offering a sacrifice of praise? 2. The Fruit of Our Lips: God has given us a beautiful gift — the gift of speech. Our words possess incredible power, capable of both building up and tearing down. By offering praise, we channel this immense power toward honoring our Heavenly Father. Let our lips be the vessel through which gratitude, worship, and adoration flow nonstop, bringing glory to His name. 3. Openly Profess His Name: We live in a world desperately seeking hope, searching for something to believe in. In such a time, we are called to boldly profess the name of Jesus Christ, the source of all hope, for the world to see. Our lives should reflect the glorious truth of the Gospel, drawing others closer to Him through our words and actions. 4. Continual Sacrifice: The verse emphasizes "continually" offering to God a sacrifice of praise. Let us not limit our praise to specific moments or occasions alone. Instead, may our lives be a constant symphony of praise and worship, marked by hearts that overflow with thanksgiving and devotion. In every season, through every trial, and in every blessing, let our praises rise to the heavens. As we reflect on Hebrews 13:15, let us respond to God's call, surrendering our hearts to Him and offering a sacrifice of praise in return for His abundant grace, love, and mercy.  Let us rejoice, for our Savior lives! May the fruit of our lips openly profess His name, as we continue to offer our sacrifice of praise.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How can anything come from such sweet kindness and enamored crushes between two in love? The meltdown is real. Marriage is a journey filled with love, growth, and shared experiences.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    But every marriage encounters storms—those fierce gusts of anger that shake the very core of your relationship. The sharp words spoken in the heat of the moment, the silent battles waged, and the emotional wreckage left behind can leave you as a couple feeling adrift and disheartened. But take heart, for this is a road well-traveled, a struggle shared by countless others. Now, that doesn't mean that it's an easy road to travel. It's just one that is traveled more often than not. In fact, you don't see this stuff written about in many marriage books. When you learn how to handle anger in a healthy and constructive manner,  it creates a strong foundation for a fulfilling marriage to prosper. So how do you deal with the meltdown? Slow and steady wins the race. The K.I.S.S. ~ Slow and steady wins the race! 1. Recognize and Understand Anger: Anger is a natural human emotion and a reaction to perceived threats, disappointments, or frustrations. The first step in handling anger effectively is to recognize and acknowledge its presence. By understanding the triggers and identifying the underlying emotions that fuel anger, couples can gain insight into their own patterns of anger and begin to address them. Action Steps: - Self-reflection: Take time to reflect on personal triggers and patterns of anger. This self-awareness will enable you to communicate your feelings and needs more effectively. - Seek feedback: Engage in open and honest conversations with your spouse about how each of you experiences and expresses anger. This mutual understanding will foster empathy and build a foundation of trust. 2. Practice Healthy Communication: One of the most crucial aspects of managing anger in marriage is maintaining open and respectful communication. When anger flares, it is essential for both partners to express their emotions and concerns in a way that encourages understanding and resolution rather than escalating the conflict. Action Steps: - Choose the right time and place: Find a suitable moment to discuss sensitive topics. It is important to ensure both partners are in a calm state of mind and have sufficient time and privacy. - Use "I" statements: Express your feelings and needs using "I" statements rather than resorting to blame or criticism. This approach encourages understanding and allows your partner to respond with empathy. - Active listening: Practice active listening by fully engaging with your partner's perspective. Summarize their thoughts and feelings to demonstrate that you genuinely understand their point of view. 3. Find Healthy Outlets for Anger: While it is essential to express anger constructively, it is equally important to have healthy outlets for releasing negative emotions. Engaging in activities that promote understanding, stress relief, and emotional well-being can help dissipate anger and create a more positive atmosphere within the marriage. Action Steps: - Physical exercise: Engage in regular physical activity together or individually. Exercise releases endorphins and helps to reduce stress, allowing for better emotional regulation. - Engage in hobbies: Encourage each other to pursue individual hobbies or shared interests. These activities can serve as outlets for stress and provide a sense of fulfillment. - Seek professional help if needed: If anger is consistently causing significant distress or leading to harmful behaviors, seeking the guidance of a professional therapist or counselor can be beneficial. A trained professional can help facilitate healthy communication and provide tools to manage anger more effectively. The meltdowns are going to come. But you don't have to let it control you. Navigate the storms of emotions and feelings by staying grounded in strategies that help you calm the waters.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Nurture their individuality. What this really means is that you're helping them be who they are feeling. And being able to do it where they aren't wrecking their family, or even themselves. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This takes a lot of patience for us parents. Because what we say can be taken the wrong way, and then we are dealing with some hurt feelings that we induced. Do we ever get a break? No! So we just keep moving forward.  One significant aspect of a child's development is nurturing their individuality – allowing them to embrace and express their true selves.  As seasons change, like going to a new school or changing grades, it really takes a toll on what the kiddos are feeling. So we gotta keep this all in mind as we transition from summer to the new school year. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nurture individuality! This comes with taking each child, not comparing, and focusing on what they are needing as who they are. 1. Encourage Self-Expression: One crucial factor in allowing children to be themselves is encouraging self-expression. Provide them with a safe and non-judgmental environment where they can freely express their thoughts, emotions, and ideas. Actively listen to their opinions and encourage open dialogue, as this will not only build their confidence, but also enable them to develop their own unique personality. Encourage creative activities such as drawing, writing, dance, theatre, or role-playing, which allow them to explore their imagination and interests. 2. Foster a Growth Mindset: Transitioning to a new school setting or grade can be intimidating and challenging for children. As parents, we can help our kids by fostering a growth mindset. Teach them that their abilities and skills can be developed through effort and dedication. Encourage them to see setbacks and failures not as roadblocks but as opportunities to learn and grow. By instilling this mindset, children will be more open-minded, resilient, and willing to embrace new experiences and challenges in the classroom and beyond. 3. Emphasize Authenticity and Embrace Differences: In a world that often promotes conformity, it is vital for parents to emphasize the importance of authenticity and embrace differences. Remind your child that being true to oneself is more important than fitting into societal expectations. Encourage them to embrace their unique qualities and talents, and teach them to respect and appreciate the differences in others as well. By nurturing their self-esteem and self-acceptance, you will help them build long-lasting confidence and resilience.

Nurture their individuality. What this really means is that you're helping them be who they are feeling. And being able to do it where they aren't wrecking their family, or even themselves. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This takes a lot of patience for us parents. Because what we say can be taken the wrong way, and then we are dealing with some hurt feelings that we induced. Do we ever get a break? No! So we just keep moving forward.  One significant aspect of a child's development is nurturing their individuality – allowing them to embrace and express their true selves.  As seasons change, like going to a new school or changing grades, it really takes a toll on what the kiddos are feeling. So we gotta keep this all in mind as we transition from summer to the new school year. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nurture individuality! This comes with taking each child, not comparing, and focusing on what they are needing as who they are. 1. Encourage Self-Expression: One crucial factor in allowing children to be themselves is encouraging self-expression. Provide them with a safe and non-judgmental environment where they can freely express their thoughts, emotions, and ideas. Actively listen to their opinions and encourage open dialogue, as this will not only build their confidence, but also enable them to develop their own unique personality. Encourage creative activities such as drawing, writing, dance, theatre, or role-playing, which allow them to explore their imagination and interests. 2. Foster a Growth Mindset: Transitioning to a new school setting or grade can be intimidating and challenging for children. As parents, we can help our kids by fostering a growth mindset. Teach them that their abilities and skills can be developed through effort and dedication. Encourage them to see setbacks and failures not as roadblocks but as opportunities to learn and grow. By instilling this mindset, children will be more open-minded, resilient, and willing to embrace new experiences and challenges in the classroom and beyond. 3. Emphasize Authenticity and Embrace Differences: In a world that often promotes conformity, it is vital for parents to emphasize the importance of authenticity and embrace differences. Remind your child that being true to oneself is more important than fitting into societal expectations. Encourage them to embrace their unique qualities and talents, and teach them to respect and appreciate the differences in others as well. By nurturing their self-esteem and self-acceptance, you will help them build long-lasting confidence and resilience. As parents, one of the greatest gifts we can give to our children is the freedom to be themselves. By implementing these three strategies, parents can effectively support their child's individuality and help them navigate the transition into a new school year with confidence and authenticity. Encouraging self-expression, fostering a growth mindset, and celebrating differences will empower our children to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally, promoting their overall well-being and happiness.

In fact, it could be a hidden secret to your success. You are more than enough, just as you are. Let go of disappointment and embrace your unique journey toward greatness. In a world that constantly measures worth through external achievements and society's expectations, it is all too easy to feel inadequate when faced with disappointment.

However, it is crucial to acknowledge that external circumstances do not define your value as an individual. You are deserving of love, respect, and success. Embrace self-acceptance by recognizing your strengths, celebrating your achievements, and learning from your experiences. Embrace the truth that you are enough, regardless of any setbacks or perceived failures. When facing disappointment, it is easy to become disheartened and discouraged. But it's in these moments that the inner strength within you shines brightest. Cultivate resilience by reframing setbacks as opportunities for growth and learning.

Thrive in the smaller things that build consistency. As Deepak Chopra said, "You must find the place inside yourself where nothing is impossible." Truly, nothing is impossible, and you can live your thriving life; however, you cannot let yourself be bamboozled into doing stuff that is too over the top or extreme. Life is too short. Do what works now to build consistency. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Mitophagy is the essential process of breaking down and removing old and damaged mitochondria, allowing your brain and body to function at their best and maintain overall health. It's a continuous journey that can be influenced by positive practices such as proper rest, physical activity, nourishing your body with nutritious foods, and taking care of your spiritual and emotional well-being. Imagine building your mitochondrial health and, in return, witnessing a life of thriving. You can even think of mitophagy as a metaphor for change - intentionally breaking down and replacing bad habits with good ones to enhance our overall health. This is where thriving practices come into play. A lot of people think they have to do something grandiose in order to impact their health. But take the small things and do them consistently, building a thriving life.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Build a thriving life in the smaller things! Ready to explore a few tactics that will help you consistently thrive in your life? 1. Take a full day to unplug: In this digital age, it's important to step away from constant distractions. Plan ahead and disconnect from phone calls, messages, and news for a day. Spend time in nature, go for a walk, or embark on a day-long hike. Embrace being fully unplugged and experience the psychological stress relief, reconnection with yourself, and appreciation of your surroundings. Feel refreshed and rejuvenated. 2. Sprinkle in small bursts of happy: Happiness is made up of small day-to-day moments. Invite more happiness into your life by incorporating small bursts of happy throughout your day. Send an email expressing gratitude, engage in a meaningful conversation with a friend, take a few seconds to help someone in need, or reflect on a past positive experience. These simple actions can contribute to a fulfilling and joyful life. 3. Seek out playful activities: Playfulness not only boosts happiness levels but is also crucial for brain health. Research has shown that engaging in playful activities activates specific areas of the brain and promotes neurodevelopment. So, make time for sports, games, or any other playful activities that make you dance. Remember, playfulness knows no boundaries. 4. Make self-care non-negotiable: Dedicate daily time to focus on activities that are solely for your own well-being. A quick midday walk will enhance your physical health and increase focus for the rest of the day. Regular meditation will cultivate patience in your interactions with loved ones. Carving out moments for projects or hobbies will bring balance, a sense of accomplishment, and happiness. Consider committing to an activity that requires regular practice or lessons, such as painting, woodworking, or rock climbing. The key is to prioritize self-care and schedule these activities into your life. Are you ready to embrace the practices that will lead you to thrive consistently and live your optimal healthy life? Start implementing these tactics and witness the incredible transformation it brings. Your journey towards vitality and well-being awaits.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Plan ahead and disconnect from phone calls, messages, and news for a day. Spend time in nature, go for a walk, or embark on a day-long hike. Embrace being fully unplugged and experience the psychological stress relief, reconnection with yourself, and appreciation of your surroundings. Feel refreshed and rejuvenated. 2. Sprinkle in small bursts of happy: Happiness is made up of small day-to-day moments. Invite more happiness into your life by incorporating small bursts of happy throughout your day. Send an email expressing gratitude, engage in a meaningful conversation with a friend, take a few seconds to help someone in need, or reflect on a past positive experience. These simple actions can contribute to a fulfilling and joyful life. 3. Seek out playful activities: Playfulness not only boosts happiness levels but is also crucial for brain health. Research has shown that engaging in playful activities activates specific areas of the brain and promotes neurodevelopment. So, make time for sports, games, or any other playful activities that make you dance. Remember, playfulness knows no boundaries. 4. Make self-care non-negotiable: Dedicate daily time to focus on activities that are solely for your own well-being. A quick midday walk will enhance your physical health and increase focus for the rest of the day. Regular meditation will cultivate patience in your interactions with loved ones. Carving out moments for projects or hobbies will bring balance, a sense of accomplishment, and happiness. Consider committing to an activity that requires regular practice or lessons, such as painting, woodworking, or rock climbing. The key is to prioritize self-care and schedule these activities into your life. Are you ready to embrace the practices that will lead you to thrive consistently and live your optimal healthy life? Start implementing these tactics and witness the incredible transformation it brings. Your journey towards vitality and well-being awaits.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Limitations are acceptable if they remain in their corner. But once they entrap your dreams, it's time to move on. Lead your day the impossible way.  Do what you can do, and stop focusing on what you can't do. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We become consumed by what we cannot accomplish, by the roadblocks in our path, and by the challenges that seem insurmountable. But what if we were to shift our perspective? What if we were to lead our days in an extraordinary way? Imagine, for a moment, waking up each morning with a renewed sense of purpose, a spring in your step, and an unwavering determination to push the boundaries of what you thought was possible. Picture yourself embracing the mantra, "Lead your day the impossible way. Do what you can do, and stop focusing on what you can't do."  When you focus solely on your limitations, you inadvertently limit yourself even further. You convince yourself that your dreams are unattainable and that you lack the resources or abilities to achieve greatness. However, it is in these moments of doubt that you must remember the power of your mindset, your heart, and the strength you possess deep within. Leading your day the impossible way means bolstering your belief in yourself. It means recognizing that while you may not have control over every situation, you have the power to decide how you respond to them. It is choosing to approach challenges as opportunities for growth and learning, rather than as roadblocks on your journey to greatness. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead your day the impossible way! Consider the story of Amelia, a remarkable young woman who, despite facing physical limitations, decided to live her life relentlessly. Born with a congenital condition that restricted her range of motion, Amelia was bound to a wheelchair. However, she refused to be defined by her circumstances. Instead, she saw her limitations as a catalyst to ignite her inner strength. Amelia, with her unwavering determination, became an inspiration to those around her. She decided to pursue her passion for writing, penning articles that touched the hearts of millions. She empowered others to see beyond their limitations, embrace their unique abilities, and redefine what was possible. In leading our days the impossible way. Do what you can do, and stop focusing on what you can't. By leveraging your strengths and utilizing your resources wisely, you open yourself up to a world of opportunity. Discover hidden talents. Develop new skills. Realize that your limits were never as restrictive as you once believed. So embrace the challenge of leading your day the impossible way. Shatter the constraints that hold you back and embark on an adventurous journey. One that will be worth living every day. And remember, it is in your willingness to depart from the conventional, to step into the unknown, and to take risks that you truly begin to thrive. As you navigate the winding paths of life, you gotta remind yourself that every day holds the potential for greatness. Take that next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness. Kristianne Wargo" Shift your focus from the limitations that surround you and instead focus on the boundless possibilities that lie within. With every step forward, with every courageous decision, you inch closer to your dreams, proving that to be a living legacy, you gotta lead your day the impossible.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly.” ~ Isaiah 60:22  Even when we see ourselves as small or insignificant, He assures us that we have a significant place in His divine plan. Never does He want us to feel less than. Those are earthly emotions that delay His direction. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Who wants to miss God's boat? I don't! So why do we keep pushing and trodding through life, hoping that we get all we want done our way? Are you straining for attention? Are you clambering for someone else's position? Are you going after your dream only in a manner that serves you? God gives us wisdom, but it's up to us to accept it and move forward according to His truth. Why try and increase the speed limit? I mean, don't you get a speeding ticket when you're going to fast? Maybe God is trying to slow you down so you don't miss the BIG stuff that begins with the small stuff. Every moment of doubt or humble beginnings is an opportunity for God to unveil something extraordinary. His promise to transform the least into thousands and the smallest into a mighty nation exemplifies His remarkable power. The K.I.S.S. ~ His plans and timing are perfect! Moreover, it is a reminder that God's timing is always impeccable. His words, "In its time I will do this swiftly," offer reassurance that His actions are swift and purposeful. God's on point ALWAYS! You don't have to worry about what God will do. You have to focus on what God directs for you to do. You can't miss the mark, the door that opens or closes. You have to ready to take A.I.M. when God calls you to take the next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo While you may not always comprehend the bigger picture, you can take courage in knowing that in God's hands, even the smallest of you plays an integral role in a grand design. Trust in His timing, for He has promised to act, and when He does, it will be both swift and perfect. PRAY I am deeply grateful for Your faithful promises, which serve as a constant reminder that my worth and potential are not defined by the world's standards but by You. Grant me the strength to place my trust in Your impeccable timing, even in moments when I may feel small or unimportant. May I always remember that in Your divine plan, I possess great significance. As I embark upon this day, I humbly surrender myself to the roles You have specifically crafted for me, knowing that You are actively molding and utilizing me for Your glorious purposes. Please guide my steps and illuminate my path, for it is in Your transformative work that I find ultimate fulfillment and bring glory to Your name.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly.” ~ Isaiah 60:22  Even when we see ourselves as small or insignificant, He assures us that we have a significant place in His divine plan. Never does He want us to feel less than. Those are earthly emotions that delay His direction. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Who wants to miss God's boat? I don't! So why do we keep pushing and trodding through life, hoping that we get all we want done our way? Are you straining for attention? Are you clambering for someone else's position? Are you going after your dream only in a manner that serves you? God gives us wisdom, but it's up to us to accept it and move forward according to His truth. Why try and increase the speed limit? I mean, don't you get a speeding ticket when you're going to fast? Maybe God is trying to slow you down so you don't miss the BIG stuff that begins with the small stuff. Every moment of doubt or humble beginnings is an opportunity for God to unveil something extraordinary. His promise to transform the least into thousands and the smallest into a mighty nation exemplifies His remarkable power. The K.I.S.S. ~ His plans and timing are perfect! Moreover, it is a reminder that God's timing is always impeccable. His words, "In its time I will do this swiftly," offer reassurance that His actions are swift and purposeful. God's on point ALWAYS! You don't have to worry about what God will do. You have to focus on what God directs for you to do. You can't miss the mark, the door that opens or closes. You have to ready to take A.I.M. when God calls you to take the next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo While you may not always comprehend the bigger picture, you can take courage in knowing that in God's hands, even the smallest of you plays an integral role in a grand design. Trust in His timing, for He has promised to act, and when He does, it will be both swift and perfect. PRAY I am deeply grateful for Your faithful promises, which serve as a constant reminder that my worth and potential are not defined by the world's standards but by You. Grant me the strength to place my trust in Your impeccable timing, even in moments when I may feel small or unimportant. May I always remember that in Your divine plan, I possess great significance. As I embark upon this day, I humbly surrender myself to the roles You have specifically crafted for me, knowing that You are actively molding and utilizing me for Your glorious purposes. Please guide my steps and illuminate my path, for it is in Your transformative work that I find ultimate fulfillment and bring glory to Your name.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But fear not, for just as a lighthouse guides a ship through a violent storm, you can weather the storm in your marriage.  Now there are different shapes and sizes of storms. You can have little squabbles that fade quickly, like a single gray cloud overhead. Or you can have torrential downpours that result in flash flooding everywhere. All of a sudden, you have rivers where there were once sidewalks. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Part of the struggle is recognizing if you're even in a storm, and should you be concerned about it. In the early days of marriage, a couple may face the storm of adjusting to the realities of living together. Differences in habits, communication styles, and expectations may create tensions and lead to conflicts. You know, things just don't jive together like they used to. Dating was much easier because you were still trying to win the prize.  But then, you have the pressure of society's expectations, financial difficulties, and parenting challenges, which can further intensify any storm. So the first thing is: Are you in a storm that you should be concerned about? There is no right or wrong answer. But I would say this. If you keep whispering under your breath about something your spouse is doing that you don't like or whatever it is continues to bother you, there's a storm brewin'. If you find that you all have a shouting match over a particular subject every time it comes up for conversation, there's a storm brewin'. Half the battle is knowing that a fronts coming. When you look at the weather map, if you see that a major storm is approaching, you can prepare accordingly. But if you allow it to surprise you, for whatever reason, then you have to deal with the onset of panic and lack of preparedness. Think of a tornado. You have to be focused, diligent, and present to know what is happening in your marriage.  But I want to say this too. Every storm eventually passes. However, if you're not in the right state of mind, it can take you under. So if you want to gain strength through adversity, you have to learn how to weather the storm. The K.I.S.S. ~ Weather the storm! And when you weather the storm, you aren't doing it from behind You want to get in ahead of the storm. 1. Embrace Effective Expression Just as calmness follows a storm, open and honest communication can dissipate the intensity of conflicts. Remember the wisdom of Proverbs 15:1, "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." It is crucial to listen attentively, empathize with one another's perspectives, and express thoughts and feelings in a respectful manner. Aim to address issues promptly, focusing on finding solutions rather than dwelling on the problem itself. AND...you have to know when to talk about it. What you are looking for is common ground to come together so you can work in a manner that supports each other. 2. Build a Foundation of Trust and Forgiveness Trust is the bedrock upon which all thriving marriages are built, and forgiveness serves as the healing balm to mend any cracks that may emerge. As Ephesians 4:32 reminds us, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." Prioritize the practice of forgiveness even during stormy times, allowing for growth, healing, and the restoration of trust. You've got to forge the walls to your marriage with trust and forgiveness.  Let's say you've experienced infidelity in your marriage, which threatened to end your marriage in divorce. Obviously, trust is an issue. However, through seeking counseling and engaging in open conversations, you all decide to move forward as a couple, choosing to forgive and work towards rebuilding trust. Each day, you make conscious efforts to rebuild your relationship on a foundation of trust, transparency, and forgiveness. 3. Seek Professional Guidance and Support Just as sailors rely on navigational tools during a storm, seeking professional guidance can provide the necessary direction and strength to navigate marital challenges. Professional counselors, therapists, or trusted spiritual mentors can provide valuable insights, tools, and perspectives to help couples weather the storm and emerge stronger on the other side. Your marriage is not immune to the storms that life brings, but remember that with faith, resilience, and intentional actions, you can triumph over adversity. PRAYER: Psalm 107:29 proclaims, "He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed." May the Lord bless your marriage.   "Be present. Be incredible.

However, there are ways to find rest and calm for our weary hearts. Parenting is undoubtedly one of life's greatest joys, but it can also be overwhelming, exhausting, and at times, downright chaotic. Amidst the constant noise, mess, and struggles, finding peace can feel like an impossible dream. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    I can remember cleaning the house many times, only to find more frustration, not at the cleaning part, but stepping on all the legos. Being a parent is not fair. It's downright abuse at times. We are asked to do the unthinkable by kids who take us for granted and lack respect for our hard work. They expect us to feed them every day and provide a roof over their heads.  Now you know I'm stretching this a little bit. But if you don't find the humor in the chaos, the stress will bury you quicker. If you want to find that peace, you have to create your sanctuary. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your sanctuary! 1. Embrace Imperfection As parents, we often put immense pressure on ourselves to be perfect, to have all the answers, and to create an idyllic environment for our children. But the reality is, perfection is an unattainable goal. Instead, let us learn to embrace imperfection and be gentle with ourselves. Allow yourself to make mistakes and acknowledge that it's okay not to have all the answers. Remember, your love and presence are what truly matters to your children. 2. Practice Self-Care Amidst the never-ending tasks of parenting, we often neglect our own well-being. It's important to remember that taking care of yourself is not selfish but rather essential for your ability to be the best parent you can be. Carve out time for self-care, whether it's taking a long bath, reading a book, or simply going for a walk. When you prioritize self-care, you are refueling your soul and replenishing the energy needed to face the challenges of parenting. 3. Seek Support and Rest in Faith Parenting is not meant to be done alone. Reach out to your support system, whether it's trusted friends, family members, or parenting groups within your community. Share your struggles, seek advice, and allow yourself to lean on others. Additionally, find solace in your faith. Turn to scriptures, such as Matthew 11:28, which says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Connect with your spiritual beliefs, seeking peace and solace that goes beyond human understanding. Parenting is an incredible journey that comes with its fair share of challenges. Remember that it is in the midst of chaos and noise that we can find moments of tranquility. Rest assured that even in the mayhem, you are doing your best, and your love for your children will guide you along the way.    "Be present. Be incredible.

However, there are ways to find rest and calm for our weary hearts. Parenting is undoubtedly one of life's greatest joys, but it can also be overwhelming, exhausting, and at times, downright chaotic. Amidst the constant noise, mess, and struggles, finding peace can feel like an impossible dream. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    I can remember cleaning the house many times, only to find more frustration, not at the cleaning part, but stepping on all the legos. Being a parent is not fair. It's downright abuse at times. We are asked to do the unthinkable by kids who take us for granted and lack respect for our hard work. They expect us to feed them every day and provide a roof over their heads.  Now you know I'm stretching this a little bit. But if you don't find the humor in the chaos, the stress will bury you quicker. If you want to find that peace, you have to create your sanctuary. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your sanctuary! 1. Embrace Imperfection As parents, we often put immense pressure on ourselves to be perfect, to have all the answers, and to create an idyllic environment for our children. But the reality is, perfection is an unattainable goal. Instead, let us learn to embrace imperfection and be gentle with ourselves. Allow yourself to make mistakes and acknowledge that it's okay not to have all the answers. Remember, your love and presence are what truly matters to your children. 2. Practice Self-Care Amidst the never-ending tasks of parenting, we often neglect our own well-being. It's important to remember that taking care of yourself is not selfish but rather essential for your ability to be the best parent you can be. Carve out time for self-care, whether it's taking a long bath, reading a book, or simply going for a walk. When you prioritize self-care, you are refueling your soul and replenishing the energy needed to face the challenges of parenting. 3. Seek Support and Rest in Faith Parenting is not meant to be done alone. Reach out to your support system, whether it's trusted friends, family members, or parenting groups within your community. Share your struggles, seek advice, and allow yourself to lean on others. Additionally, find solace in your faith. Turn to scriptures, such as Matthew 11:28, which says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Connect with your spiritual beliefs, seeking peace and solace that goes beyond human understanding. Parenting is an incredible journey that comes with its fair share of challenges. Remember that it is in the midst of chaos and noise that we can find moments of tranquility. Rest assured that even in the mayhem, you are doing your best, and your love for your children will guide you along the way.    "Be present. Be incredible.

You must do the thing which you think you cannot do." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt In this spirit, you can embrace your struggles as opportunities for growth, recognizing that it is in these moments of uncertainty that you are truly tested.

Instead of viewing roadblocks as obstacles, you get to choose to see them as stepping stones on your journey. They redirect you to new paths, revealing opportunities that you may have otherwise missed. By shifting your mindset, you can transform frustration into motivation, and setbacks into stepping stones toward success. However, when challenges arise, it's easy to get caught up in the problem itself, forgetting that every problem has a solution waiting to be discovered. Rather than dwelling on what went wrong, redirect your focus toward finding creative ways to overcome obstacles. As you adopt a solution-oriented mindset, you empower yourself to break through barriers and forge new paths ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look fear in the face! But as you know, it's tough to do life on your own. Therefore, seeking support from others is not a sign of weakness, but a strength. It's okay to have people who surround you with wise counsel and will cheer you on when only the crickets are heard. When faced with roadblocks, it's the perfect time to lean on mentors, friends, and family who believe in you. Sharing your struggles allows you to gain perspective, insight, and valuable advice. Together, you can conquer the most daunting challenges, knowing that you have a network of support cheering you on. Have no fear; your support is near! You got this! So keep at it by navigating through difficult times. Your resilience muscle is stronger than you think. Believe in your ability to bounce back, learn from experiences, and adapt to new circumstances. This can make all the difference. You must grab ahold of what sustains you in a positive way. Drown out the naysayers, and awaken the dream even deeper. But the setbacks you endure today are merely paving the way for your future greatness. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo And let's not forget the importance of celebrating small steps; those small victories that count toward extraordinary opportunities. Every step forward, regardless of how seemingly insignificant, is a cause for celebration. So acknowledge and appreciate the progress you make. That is what will keep your motor runnin'. It'll fuel your motivation and keep moving forward. Even though life is unpredictable and adventurous, you get to show up with a heart ready to pounce and a mind ready to explore.

I don't know about you, but it's oh-so-easy to do everything for everyone else, yet not give a second thought about yourself. Don't throw away the greatest gift given to your family. YOU!!! By taking small steps toward a healthier lifestyle, you get to make a significant difference for yourself in the long run. So get ready to do....well, just a little. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do just a little! Now doing a little doesn't mean that you aren't doing anything at all. It also doesn't mean you get to be lazy. You are being very strategic with how you work your habits to support your everyday mission of living healthy. 1. Find joy in movement: Exercise is a crucial component of a healthy lifestyle, but it doesn't have to mean spending hours at the gym or running a marathon. Start by incorporating enjoyable physical activities into your daily routine. Take a leisurely walk in nature or dance to your favorite uplifting music. These activities can help boost your mood, improve your cardiovascular health, and increase overall fitness levels. Think outside the box. Don't do something that is normal for you. Take up a new activity that's fun and challenging in all the positive ways. Pickleball might be a good option. Swimming instead of running. Biblical Resource: Proverbs 3:8-9 reminds us that through honoring God with our bodies, we will find health and vitality: "This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones." 2. Nourish your body with wholesome foods: Nutrition plays a vital role in maintaining optimal health. Rather than completely overhauling your diet overnight, begin by making small dietary changes. Incorporate more fruits and vegetables into your meals, swap sugary drinks for water, or pack nourishing snacks like nuts and seeds. These small changes can gradually improve your overall diet and provide your body with essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Biblical Resource: In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, we are encouraged to treat our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit: "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies." 3. Prioritize quality sleep: In our fast-paced world, getting enough sleep often takes a backseat. However, good-quality sleep is crucial for overall health and well-being. Establish a consistent sleep routine, create a calming environment in your bedroom, and try relaxation techniques such as meditation or reading before bed. These small changes can help improve sleep quality, boost energy levels, and enhance cognitive function. Biblical Resource: Psalm 4:8 assures us that a peaceful sleep is a gift from God: "In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety." Let me share this with you. When you are making any changes to your routine, conduct it in a manner that you will succeed. In other words, don't set yourself up for failure. Remember, healthy living is a lifelong journey, and it's okay to start small. So, take that first step today towards a healthier, happier you, and let the process unfold gradually, knowing that a little goes a long way.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It is through pursuing this seemingly unattainable dream that we open ourselves to life's remarkable possibilities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

During such times, it's reassuring to know that there is a wellspring of grace and love available to us, sourced from a power far greater than ourselves. Embrace God's unfathomable grace. His unconditional love and boundless grace can uplift our spirits, providing the strength and hope we need to persevere. It is in His embrace that we find solace, knowing that His love surpasses all understanding. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Ephesians 3:20-21 states, "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen." These words remind us that God's grace is not limited by our circumstances or our understanding. His love extends beyond our human comprehension, and His power is capable of exceeding our wildest expectations. During moments of deep despair or when we feel burdened by the weight of life's challenges, it is in God's grace that we find true refuge. His grace is not merely a fleeting emotion, but a limitless wellspring of strength, renewal, and second chances. It is a gift freely given to all who seek it, regardless of our flaws or past mistakes. In our moments of weakness, His grace embraces us, reminding us that we are never alone or abandoned. God's love is unlike anything we can experience in this earthly realm. It is an unwavering, selfless love that transcends human comprehension. In times when we feel broken or unlovable, God's love envelops us, offering respite and solace. His arms are always open, waiting to envelop us, providing comfort and reassurance. It is through His love that we find healing, restoration, and the strength to carry on. As we reflect on Ephesians 3:20-21, we are reminded that God's love is not limited to a specific time or generation. It is a love that has transcended throughout the ages, touching the hearts of countless individuals. This enduring love brings hope, comfort, and a peace that surpasses understanding. It is a love that is freely given to each one of us, beckoning us to embrace it and allow it to transform our lives. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace God's unfathomable grace! To receive God's grace and love, we must surrender our burdens and trust in His divine plan for our lives. In moments of struggle, let us turn to Him through prayer, pouring out our hearts with complete vulnerability. Let us seek His guidance, trusting that He will provide the strength we need to overcome any obstacle. Embrace the certainty that His grace is sufficient for us, even in the face of adversity. In this journey, let us also extend God's grace and love to others, becoming vessels of His compassion and kindness. By sharing His love with those around us, we become a testament to His unfathomable grace, shining light into the darkest of places. In times when we feel the need for significant grace and boundless love, may we turn to God, for His grace knows no bounds. As we reflect on Ephesians 3:20-21, let us remember that His power goes beyond what we can conceive, and His love surpasses our understanding. In His embrace, we find hope, strength, and the transformative power of His immeasurable grace. May we bask in the everlasting love of God, allowing it to heal, guide, and inspire us. Remember, you are never alone. God's grace and love are always present, waiting to uplift and embrace you. "You are loved more than you will ever know by someone who died to know you." - Romans 5:8   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

During such times, it's reassuring to know that there is a wellspring of grace and love available to us, sourced from a power far greater than ourselves. Embrace God's unfathomable grace. His unconditional love and boundless grace can uplift our spirits, providing the strength and hope we need to persevere. It is in His embrace that we find solace, knowing that His love surpasses all understanding. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Ephesians 3:20-21 states, "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen." These words remind us that God's grace is not limited by our circumstances or our understanding. His love extends beyond our human comprehension, and His power is capable of exceeding our wildest expectations. During moments of deep despair or when we feel burdened by the weight of life's challenges, it is in God's grace that we find true refuge. His grace is not merely a fleeting emotion, but a limitless wellspring of strength, renewal, and second chances. It is a gift freely given to all who seek it, regardless of our flaws or past mistakes. In our moments of weakness, His grace embraces us, reminding us that we are never alone or abandoned. God's love is unlike anything we can experience in this earthly realm. It is an unwavering, selfless love that transcends human comprehension. In times when we feel broken or unlovable, God's love envelops us, offering respite and solace. His arms are always open, waiting to envelop us, providing comfort and reassurance. It is through His love that we find healing, restoration, and the strength to carry on. As we reflect on Ephesians 3:20-21, we are reminded that God's love is not limited to a specific time or generation. It is a love that has transcended throughout the ages, touching the hearts of countless individuals. This enduring love brings hope, comfort, and a peace that surpasses understanding. It is a love that is freely given to each one of us, beckoning us to embrace it and allow it to transform our lives. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace God's unfathomable grace! To receive God's grace and love, we must surrender our burdens and trust in His divine plan for our lives. In moments of struggle, let us turn to Him through prayer, pouring out our hearts with complete vulnerability. Let us seek His guidance, trusting that He will provide the strength we need to overcome any obstacle. Embrace the certainty that His grace is sufficient for us, even in the face of adversity. In this journey, let us also extend God's grace and love to others, becoming vessels of His compassion and kindness. By sharing His love with those around us, we become a testament to His unfathomable grace, shining light into the darkest of places. In times when we feel the need for significant grace and boundless love, may we turn to God, for His grace knows no bounds. As we reflect on Ephesians 3:20-21, let us remember that His power goes beyond what we can conceive, and His love surpasses our understanding. In His embrace, we find hope, strength, and the transformative power of His immeasurable grace. May we bask in the everlasting love of God, allowing it to heal, guide, and inspire us. Remember, you are never alone. God's grace and love are always present, waiting to uplift and embrace you. "You are loved more than you will ever know by someone who died to know you." - Romans 5:8   "Be present. Be incredible.

Yet, many people will do just that in an attempt to control who they want their spouse to be. Don't play with fire. Love conquers shame. In the sacred bond of marriage, the path to growth and transformation starts with a choice rooted in love, understanding, and compassion. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    While it may be tempting to use shame as a tool to bring about change in a spouse, it has been proven time and again that this approach is ineffective and destructive. One cannot shame someone into transformation; instead, change springs forth from a willing heart. If you find yourself trapped in this debilitating pattern of shame within your marriage, it's time to take steps toward healing and restoration.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Love conquers shame! Let's explore three essential actions you can take to break free from shame and foster an environment of love, acceptance, and growth. 1. Embrace the Power of Vulnerability Shame often thrives in the shadows and secrecy, suffocating the authenticity and openness within a marriage. To dismantle this destructive force, spouses must bravely step into vulnerability. By cultivating an atmosphere of trust and safety, couples can: - Share their Feelings: Openly express your emotions, fears, and insecurities without fear of judgment. Encourage your partner to do the same, establishing a space where both can be seen, heard, and valued. - Practice Active Empathy: Seek to understand your partner's perspective and empathize with their struggles. Genuine empathy allows for compassionate connection, paving the way for healing and change. - Seek Professional Help: Consider seeking guidance from a qualified marriage counselor or therapist. These professionals can provide a safe space where both partners can explore the root causes of shame and develop healthy coping strategies to address them. Bible Verse: "Therefore encourage one another and build each other up." - 1 Thessalonians 5:11 2. Foster a Culture of Encouragement and Grace Shame can be debilitating, leaving wounds that hinder growth and perpetuate cycles of negativity. To break free from this destructive pattern, spouses must cultivate an environment of encouragement, grace, and acceptance. This includes: - Celebrating Successes: Instead of fixating on failures or shortcomings, prioritize celebrating achievements, no matter how small. By shifting the focus to accomplishments, you can nurture a culture of affirmation and build each other up. - Extending Forgiveness: Embrace the transformative power of forgiveness within your marriage. Practice letting go of past mistakes and offer genuine forgiveness, freeing both individuals from the burdens of shame and guilt. Bible Verse: "Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." - Colossians 3:13 3. Cultivate Communication and Empathy Effective communication forms the bedrock of any healthy marriage. Break the chains of shame by fostering open, honest, and empathetic dialogue. Here are key steps to guide you: - Active Listening: Truly listen to your spouse without interrupting, judgment, or defensiveness. Seek to understand their perspective and validate their feelings. - Choose Your Words Wisely: Speak with kindness, respect, and thoughtfulness, even when addressing difficult topics. Avoid using shaming language or belittling remarks that can erode trust and connection. - Practice Healthy Conflict Resolution: Instead of resorting to blame and shame during conflicts, strive for mutual understanding, compassion, and compromise. Focus on finding solutions that benefit both partners and strengthen the marriage. Bible Verse: "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." - Proverbs 15:1 You can create an environment that nourishes love, growth, and transformation within your marriage. As you continue on this journey, remember that by choosing love, you sow the seeds for a marriage grounded in acceptance, understanding, and mutual growth.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But realistically, more times of backtalk and expletives are thrown your direction. Don't take it personally. Parenting is an incredibly rewarding journey, but it's also a lot of craziness and chaos; times that we don't always want to remember. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    And the thing is, when you're trying to do what's best for your kiddos, they don't always like your response. They want it their way no matter what the consequences. Now hopefully, they learn fast that if you work within the rules, life is a lot more exciting with less yelling. Because who really needs all that stress? But it's in these moments that your child grows, and so do you. And ultimately, that's what we want for our children. Therefore, when all else fails, don't take it personally.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't take it personally! 1. Cultivate Empathy and Understanding When your children resist your guidance, it's crucial to remember that their independence and desire to do what they want and express themselves are natural aspects of their development. Rather than taking their actions personally, you get to choose to approach these moments with empathy and understanding. Put yourself in their shoes. This way, you can better understand their perspective and respond with patience and compassion. Yelling, getting frustrated does not work. And as they get older, they'll just throw it back in your face. Create a safe environment for your children to express themselves while still providing guidance and setting appropriate boundaries. 2. Find Support Networks Parenting can feel so empty, often like a solitary journey, but it doesn't have to be. Seek out support networks of other parents who can empathize with your experiences and offer valuable advice. Join parenting communities, attend workshops, or join online forums or groups that can help alleviate the feeling of loneliness and provide invaluable insights into effective parenting strategies. When you engage with others who share similar difficulties, it reminds you that we're not alone, giving you the reassurance and strength you need to stay focused on raising your children well. 3. Focus on the Bigger Picture In the midst of challenging parenting moments, it can be helpful to remind ourselves of our ultimate aspiration as parents—to raise children who have the power to impact the world around them positively. By keeping this bigger picture in mind, you get to transform moments of hurt into opportunities for growth and learning. Recognize that redirecting, teaching, and guiding our children are essential components of their personal development. Instilling valuable life skills and nurturing their character is going to enable them to navigate the world confidently. Embracing this broader perspective empowers you to transcend momentary difficulties and continue leading our children with love and purpose. Parenting is a beautiful, yet complex journey that comes with both joy and challenges. Remember, when our children resist our guidance, it's not a reflection of our worth as parents. Don't take it personally! Embrace each moment as an opportunity for growth, and marvel at the incredible potential held within your child.   "Be present. Be incredible.

And as they get older, they'll just throw it back in your face. Create a safe environment for your children to express themselves while still providing guidance and setting appropriate boundaries. 2. Find Support Networks Parenting can feel so empty, often like a solitary journey, but it doesn't have to be. Seek out support networks of other parents who can empathize with your experiences and offer valuable advice. Join parenting communities, attend workshops, or join online forums or groups that can help alleviate the feeling of loneliness and provide invaluable insights into effective parenting strategies. When you engage with others who share similar difficulties, it reminds you that we're not alone, giving you the reassurance and strength you need to stay focused on raising your children well. 3. Focus on the Bigger Picture In the midst of challenging parenting moments, it can be helpful to remind ourselves of our ultimate aspiration as parents—to raise children who have the power to impact the world around them positively. By keeping this bigger picture in mind, you get to transform moments of hurt into opportunities for growth and learning. Recognize that redirecting, teaching, and guiding our children are essential components of their personal development. Instilling valuable life skills and nurturing their character is going to enable them to navigate the world confidently. Embracing this broader perspective empowers you to transcend momentary difficulties and continue leading our children with love and purpose. Parenting is a beautiful, yet complex journey that comes with both joy and challenges. Remember, when our children resist our guidance, it's not a reflection of our worth as parents. Don't take it personally! Embrace each moment as an opportunity for growth, and marvel at the incredible potential held within your child.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Embrace the closed doors and unlock your true potential. Trust in the process, have faith in God, and believe that something far greater awaits you.

If you want a balanced body, you must reboot your core. From the moment we come into this world, our "intrinsic core" is already hard at work. It is the foundational hardware that is ingrained within each and every one of us, as we prepare ourselves to navigate the world. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    This remarkable core hardware enables us to develop and master crucial motor skills such as crawling, rolling over, standing, walking, and eventually running. It seamlessly integrates into every movement we make without us even being aware of its significance. The term "intrinsic core" refers to the deep muscles and structures located within the torso that play a crucial role in maintaining posture, stability, and movement. It includes muscles like the transverse abdominis, multifidus, diaphragm, and pelvic floor muscles, as well as the spinal column, deep back muscles, and connective tissues. These internal core muscles work in synergy to provide support, control, and balance to the entire body, acting as a foundation for our movements. The "intrinsic core" is often contrasted with the more superficial muscles of the abdomen, commonly referred to as the "six-pack" muscles or rectus abdominis. However, as we transition into the modern world, our levels of activity tend to diminish. The sedentary lifestyle that has become so prevalent in our society disrupts the natural flow of our original "core patterns". We unknowingly fall into disjointed movement patterns, resulting in what we commonly recognize as "poor posture". With an insufficient amount of exercise, excessive sitting, and minimal lifting, pushing, and pulling, we unwittingly set ourselves up for a lifetime of unnecessary discomfort and pain. Fortunately, there is a powerful solution that can help us reclaim the balance we once had. Reboot the core! The K.I.S.S. ~ Reboot your core! By "rebooting the core" through a series of simple exercises, we have the opportunity to restore our core hardware to its optimal state. These exercises act as the catalyst for realigning our body's fundamental foundation. By engaging in these exercises daily for a mere two weeks, while maintaining a deep focus on the process through mindful awareness of the sensations we experience, we can initiate the transformation. Once we have gained proficiency in these three exercises, they can seamlessly be integrated into our warm-up routine prior to embarking on our regular exercise regimen. This new approach effectively turns every exercise into a "core exercise," as we are establishing a strong and stable core foundation that supports and enhances all other movements. Research proves the significant role of the core in maintaining a balanced body. According to a study conducted by the Journal of Physical Therapy Science, a strong core significantly reduces the risk of developing chronic lower back pain and improves overall spinal stability. Additionally, a paper published in the European Spine Journal suggests that a well-developed core enables better control of movements, leading to improved posture and reduced risk of musculoskeletal injuries.  Pelvic Tilt Tighten the muscles of pelvic floor and gently press the lower back to the floor. Do 3 rounds of 10 reps Dead Bug Tighten your pelvic floor and press your lower back to the floor. Under control and without letting your lower back leave the floor, slowly extend the opposite arm and leg. Do 3 rounds of 5 to 8 reps Glute Bridge Tighten the pelvic floor. Press down through your heels and flex your glutes "up and in", driving your hips upward. Hold at the top for 2 seconds with glutes flexed. Do 3 rounds of 10 reps Let's take the first step together and embark on this transformative journey to a stronger, more balanced self.   "Train for life.

Your purpose here on earth will fall apart unless you do it. Your passion will fade into the night unless you ignite it.  You have got to stay in the game of life and do what you were called to do.  Just do it. Yet as easy as that rolls off our tongues, following through can be the greatest hurdle. You see all the possibilities of what might not happen. Then you wrestle with all the possibilities of what could happen. The fluctuation between this, that, and the other, only holds you prisoner to what you won't do. You must get off the baseline and begin the truck to the top of the mountain. Yes, you will run into a few valleys along the way. You might even face a few unexpected detours and visitors you have to deal with.  But until you are ready to embrace the power of doing, the only results you'll achieve will be mediocre. For a season, those results might be okay. However, is that what you really want for the rest of your life? Is that where you want to land with your passion? God has equipped you to do great things. But greatness comes with a charge, and that charge is in the power of doing. Just do it! The K.I.S.S. ~ Just do it! Let me ask you. What have you been contemplating lately? What have you been mulling over in your mind that won't fade away? What dreams do you still have within you that you know deep down is still possible, even in the season that you are in? Life is not about what others make of it for you. Yes, you have to seize the opportunity. But you also need to create your now. You need to get in the driver's seat and take this journey of the unknown by storm.

Your limitations on yourself might be the only thing standing in your way. So instead of fighting what you think might happen, just take the next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Krisitanne Wargo</li> <li>Do it with conviction. If you come at life with a mediocre attitude, the results will be just that...so-so.

Commit to where you are and where you are headed; that next step. You don't have to look too far to do what you need to do now. </li> <li>Do it with confidence. As much as you can be your worst enemy, on the flip side, you must be your biggest cheerleader. If you are always second-guessing what you need to be doing, you will loiter in limbo land.

Playing full-out in the game of life with confidence gives you the opportunity to make adjustments, to see what's possible, and to engage your passion to perform at your best.</li> </ol> You can choose to hang out with what isn't working, or accomplishing things that don't matter so you don't have to face your fears. Meanwhile, your dreams will continue to dwindle, leaving not much room for you to fulfill your calling. Life is a gift, and breath is a blessing. Don't let your fears suffocate you.

While marriage may not always resemble the perfect love stories we see in Hallmark movies, by following certain principles and committing to a few key things, we can create a strong foundation for our marriage. 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. ~ (1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NIV) At some point, you have to establish what marriage means to you. You have got to define what you want your marriage to be, and then commit to it.  Because if you don't commit, you will always be floundering. You can turn your back one day and quit the marriage.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your "yes" be YES!

It's easy to point out someone else's junk before you see the good. The junk is always there. It's like asking your children to pick up their toys and clothes in their room. It just stays there and does not move. </li> <li>Be willing to do things God's way, no matter how hard it is. You don't know it all, and if you did, you wouldn't be where you are today.

But in a world that knocks your kid down more than builds them up, we have to stand up and remind them– you are more than you've been told. It's unfortunate that we even have to have this conversation. And I must say, first and foremost, this is not a social media bashing session.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yes, it plays a huge role in our children's lives. However, there are still a lot of other factors that impact your child's self-esteem. I can remember, way back when, the word "self-esteem" was popular.  And now, it's all but crickets. Do we really care about our kiddos? Now, this is an honest question that I want you to process. Because I think we have become so immune to our children's needs for the mere fact that our own aspirations and desires overcome our need to parent first. There was a story I read where a physician was killed in his exam room by a patient. And this patient is about upper 20s or so, with no prior criminal history. Now this is what I know at the time of reading the article.  It is a tragic situation. I've been praying for the family. It's disturbing.  And then I look at the other side, and wonder– Are we doing what our kiddos need from us? This young man could be my child, age-wise. So I want you to be honest with yourself. No one is going to look over your shoulder or grade you directly. You are grading yourself. With all of the technology and all we can do around the globe with just movements of our fingers, the distraction is HUGE!!! It's like outer space HUGE!!! And I wonder if when I had younger kids, could I have been so distracted by my dreams that I didn't give my own children the attention they deserve as their parent. What do you think? Are you giving your time, attention, and energy to the degree that is required to raise incredible kids? The reason why I ask this is because we have so many children growing up not knowing how to respect others, how to control emotions, how to act with restraint; really understanding the way we relate as human beings, not barbaric creatures. There's no blame game here. This is a safe place to really think about whether or not you are giving your children what they need. Because if they don't get it from home, and they are struggling in school with others and their friends, we have a problem. Now, this is where I believe social media comes in. Teachers and school administrators can't do everything. When are we going to start working as a team, and what part of that team are you playing on? If this is going to happen, we have to step up as a family.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Step up as a family! These are things I want you to consider with your children when something is off, not normal for your child. 1. Signs of Abrupt Change -- Have you noticed any differences in their attitude, how they're dressing, the words they use, or their facial expressions. Anything that's unusual for their typical behavior.  2. Physical Touch Extremes -- Maybe your child was a hugger, and now they are not hugging at all; more distance. Or maybe they're too touchy. 3. The Hangout Buddies -- Who are your kiddos hanging out with? The same friends, or new ones. Or they more isolated? All of these are indications that something is not good. Attention is needed, bring on the Mama PI. You gotta strike while the iron's hot. <ol> <li>Support with unconditional love. "Love vs. Yell" -- One of the most crucial aspects of supporting your child's self-worth is creating a foundation of unconditional love. Make sure your child knows that your love for them is unwavering, regardless of their achievements or mistakes. This unconditional love provides them with a sense of security, allowing them to feel confident and capable.</li> <li>Teach resilience. -- Resilience is a valuable skill that supports your child's emotional well-being and resilience. By teaching them how to handle challenges and setbacks, you equip them with the tools to bounce back confidently.</li> <li>Instill a sense of purpose. -- Another way to support your child's self-worth is by helping them find and pursue their passions and purpose in life. Help them live their lives boldly.</li> </ol> As a parent, we take this silent, sacred oath that we will care for our children and their needs, and that includes their self-esteem. And I must add -- If at any point you feel overwhelmed as to how your child is acting and appearing to you, seek professional help! We need to raise the level of our involvement as parents. That's our job; that's our responsibility.    "Be present. Be incredible.

But optimal health finds success in small steps. That's right- little things make a big difference. We live in a fast-paced world where instant gratification is the norm. We want quick fixes and instant results. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    However, sustainable health and well-being require a shift in mindset. It requires us to do something different, to get out of our norm. So instead of reaching for that extreme diet or obsessing over the latest fitness trends, it's time to focus on the little things that can lead to long-term success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do the little things! Here are three ways to start doing the little things: 1. Prioritize How and When You Eat One of the most effective ways to improve your health is through mindful eating. This means slowing down and savoring each bite, paying attention to the textures, flavors, and sensations in your mouth. By doing so, you become more in tune with your body's hunger and fullness cues, and you are less likely to overeat. Start by practicing this during one meal each day. Turn off distractions, chew your food thoroughly, and take the time to truly enjoy your meal. Soon enough, mindful eating will become a habit that positively impacts your overall health.  2. Incorporate Intentional Movement into Your Daily Routine Exercise doesn't always have to involve grueling hours at the gym or intense workout sessions. It's about finding ways to incorporate movement into your daily routine. Whether it's taking the stairs instead of the elevator, going for a walk during your lunch break, or doing a quick 15-minute workout at home, every bit of movement counts. By making these small changes, you'll be increasing your physical activity level without overwhelming yourself. 3. Get Enough Quality Sleep Sleep is often underestimated in its role in overall health. Poor sleep can lead to increased stress levels, impaired cognitive function, and a weakened immune system. To prioritize quality sleep, establish a bedtime routine that promotes relaxation and creates a sleep-friendly environment. This can include activities such as reading a book, taking a warm bath, or practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation. Aim for 7-9 hours of uninterrupted sleep each night and notice how it positively influences your energy levels and overall well-being. Instead of scrolling through your phone or watching TV right before bed, try spending the last hour before sleep engaging in a calming activity like reading or journaling. Or maybe you can spend it with your sweetheart and have some alone time. You actually might find that you fall asleep faster and wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. If you want to have the greatest impact on your health, remember that the little things make a big difference. Gradually, you'll develop a healthier lifestyle that outlasts any trendy diet. So start implementing these small changes today, and watch as they add up to significant improvements in your overall well-being. Remember, it's the little things that matter.   "Train for life.

When life pulls you down, how do you get back up? Because it's not the load that breaks you down; it's the way you carry it. How did you feel when you woke up this morning? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Maybe you were encouraged by something that happened yesterday, so today feels pretty good. Or maybe you are in some struggles where you don't know how you feel or where you stand. There's a little bit of disconnect and frustration. A lot of life is lived in the latter. You're in this position of uncertainty, and more seems to be down than up. How do you get back up when all you're feeling is down? The K.I.S.S. ~ How do you get back up? Because it is SO frustrating. You want something different, but for whatever reason, you just exist. No matter what you do, there doesn't seem to be a way to get you to the other side.  No saying can will you to do what just isn't happening.  <ul> <li>Being tired and not having enough energy is taxing on anyone.</li> <li>Being frustrated because you don't have the answer is challenging.</li> <li>Being so withdrawn, that you don't know if you're coming or going.</li> </ul> When the heart isn't ready, the will can't push it. So is all hope lost? Of course not!! You have got to consider the season in which you're hanging out. You have to be real with yourself, or the result is that the reality you're in will hold you back. Genuine honesty with yourself is the best policy. Look to what you have that's going well for you. Don't smother your thoughts in what you haven't done lately. Pull up your big girl panties and get in the game of life. You are going to fall down. And the only what to overcome that is to get back up. There is no magic formula. There is no saying.  There is your heart connected to a God who loves you, and regardless of your circumstances, He will carry you and be with you through your journey. The destination is not His concern, and neither should it be yours. It's your readiness to lean in more, to know Him more, to see the little blessings more, to have faith more, to glorify Him more, to love more, to forgive more, to live more. Yes, life is not easy, but the journey is definitely beautiful, especially when your perspective is from God.  So whatever you face today, this too shall pass. You were created for such a time as this. Go in peace and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

When life pulls you down, how do you get back up? Because it's not the load that breaks you down; it's the way you carry it. How did you feel when you woke up this morning? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Maybe you were encouraged by something that happened yesterday, so today feels pretty good. Or maybe you are in some struggles where you don't know how you feel or where you stand. There's a little bit of disconnect and frustration. A lot of life is lived in the latter. You're in this position of uncertainty, and more seems to be down than up. How do you get back up when all you're feeling is down? The K.I.S.S. ~ How do you get back up? Because it is SO frustrating. You want something different, but for whatever reason, you just exist. No matter what you do, there doesn't seem to be a way to get you to the other side.  No saying can will you to do what just isn't happening.  <ul> <li>Being tired and not having enough energy is taxing on anyone.</li> <li>Being frustrated because you don't have the answer is challenging.</li> <li>Being so withdrawn, that you don't know if you're coming or going.</li> </ul> When the heart isn't ready, the will can't push it. So is all hope lost? Of course not!! You have got to consider the season in which you're hanging out. You have to be real with yourself, or the result is that the reality you're in will hold you back. Genuine honesty with yourself is the best policy. Look to what you have that's going well for you. Don't smother your thoughts in what you haven't done lately. Pull up your big girl panties and get in the game of life. You are going to fall down. And the only what to overcome that is to get back up. There is no magic formula. There is no saying.  There is your heart connected to a God who loves you, and regardless of your circumstances, He will carry you and be with you through your journey. The destination is not His concern, and neither should it be yours. It's your readiness to lean in more, to know Him more, to see the little blessings more, to have faith more, to glorify Him more, to love more, to forgive more, to live more. Yes, life is not easy, but the journey is definitely beautiful, especially when your perspective is from God.  So whatever you face today, this too shall pass. You were created for such a time as this. Go in peace and create your now.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Sometimes, the greatest challenges arise when we unknowingly embrace falsehoods, misbeliefs, or negative narratives. What does your belief sound like?  These distorted beliefs can lead us astray, hindering our growth and hampering our progress toward a fulfilling life. Belief has a sound. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    In life, we often hear the phrase, "What you think about, you bring about." This statement holds a profound truth - our thoughts and beliefs have a powerful impact on our lives. But it is equally important to consider the thoughts and beliefs we accept as truth in our lives. When we take what is a lie and make it our truth, we inadvertently subject ourselves to a barrage of problems and limitations. These falsehoods seep into the very fabric of our being and impact every aspect of our lives, from our relationships to our personal endeavors. The consequences of harboring false beliefs can manifest as self-doubt, fear, stagnation, and a distorted perception of reality. One of the primary problems we face when we accept lies as truths is a loss of self-confidence and self-worth. Negative narratives can chip away at our sense of purpose and hinder our abilities to recognize and unleash our full potential. By internalizing false beliefs, we create self-imposed barriers that limit our capabilities and hinder our progress. Moreover, accepting falsehoods can also strain our relationships with others. When we believe negative narratives, it can lead to distrust, suspicion, and a distorted view of others' intentions. We may find it challenging to form deep and meaningful connections, as our preconceived notions and incorrect assumptions cloud our judgment, preventing us from seeing the true nature of those around us. Another problem that arises from embracing lies as truths is the hampering of personal growth and achievement. False beliefs can confine us to a mental prison, constraining our outlook and preventing us from seeking new opportunities or exploring our true passions. These limiting beliefs can keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns, preventing us from realizing our dreams and reaching our full potential. To overcome these problems and maximize our belief for a fulfilling life, it is crucial to practice discernment and self-reflection. We must challenge the beliefs we hold, critically examining whether they align with our values, aspirations, and personal growth. Surrounding ourselves with supportive communities and seeking guidance from mentors or trusted advisors can also help us gain perspective and uncover the truth. By embracing a growth mindset and fostering a sense of curiosity, we can dismantle falsehoods and replace them with empowering beliefs that propel us forward. The K.I.S.S. ~ Foster a sense of curiosity! If belief has a sound, how can we maximize your belief to keep you going? Here are three essential practices to solidify this principle in your everyday life, supported by insightful biblical quotes and stories. 1. Embrace Positive Affirmations Affirmations are powerful tools that can reinforce positive thoughts and beliefs. By consciously choosing uplifting words and phrases, we can redirect our minds towards a more optimistic outlook. The Bible echoes this concept in Romans 12:2, where it says, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Replace negative self-talk with empowering affirmations like, "I am capable," "I am worthy," or "I am loved." These statements serve as a constant reminder of your abilities and worth, helping to solidify positive beliefs. 2. Surround Yourself with Supportive Communities Remember the story of David and Jonathan? Their deep friendship showed us the power of companionship and support. Just like David and Jonathan, we also need a community that uplifts and encourages us. Surrounding ourselves with like-minded individuals who share similar beliefs and values can help reinforce and strengthen your own convictions. Seek out gatherings, groups, or religious communities that align with your beliefs. Together, you can deepen your faith and continually inspire each other to maximize your belief in yourself and your purpose. 3. Practice Gratitude Gratitude is a transformative practice that shifts our focus away from negativity and towards appreciation for the good in our lives. In Philippians 4:6, the Bible says, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Take time each day to list at least three things you are grateful for. Whether big or small, these moments of gratitude anchor your belief in the abundance and blessings that surround you, fostering a mindset of positivity and attracting more positive experiences. Remember, you are not the wizard behind the curtain. If belief has a sound, you have to know what you're hearing.  So listen! Belief, when maximized, can lead us toward a fulfilling and purposeful life. But again, you have to do what you can do and then give the rest to God. PRAYER: Make your belief a harmonious melody that ignites your heart with joy, love, and courage. May your beliefs guide your actions and establish your thoughts while God shapes your every day better than anything you can imagine.   "Be present. Be incredible.

We all have moments when we sense a distance from God. We can still find comfort in God's hidden presence. Despite our best efforts, it can feel like God is hiding Himself, which leaves us longing for His presence. However, God never leaves you nor forsakes you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Isaiah 45:15 - "Truly, you are a God who has been hiding himself, the God and Savior of Israel." But even if God is hiding from you, He is still your God and Savior.  You know, God challenges our faith. Yet we still have to understand that He is still doing work on your behalf. You may feel a little distant, but that doesn't mean He's not moving mountains for you in the background. It might seem surprising to acknowledge that God hides Himself, but it is a reminder that His ways and methods are beyond our comprehension. In times of feeling distant from God, we may question His presence and wonder why He allows such periods of perceived absence. However, as we read here in Isaiah, it challenges us to have faith and trust in His sovereignty, even when we cannot fully grasp His ways. Just like the hidden God in Isaiah 45:15, we must learn to trust in God's unseen work during seasons of distance. Although we may not always perceive His presence, God is continuously at work in our lives, orchestrating events and molding us according to His plan.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Find comfort in God's hidden presence! And that's another reason why we need to be in His Word. Because the Bible acts as a compass, guiding us closer to God, even when we feel distant. By diving into God's Word, you get to discover comfort, direction, and the assurance of His unfailing love. It's in those pages, that His Words speak comfort to us when we feel like we are playing hide and seek. I mean think about this, there are stories in the Bible of individuals who experienced God's hidden presence but were ultimately drawn nearer to Him. So during these times of perceived distance, prayer becomes a lifeline to connect with God. Pouring out your heart to Him, sharing your struggles, doubts, and desires, bringing Him into your present circumstances. Although God's response may not always be immediate or evident, our prayers serve as an avenue for that intimacy with Him. Now most people don't want to hear that God having His ringer turned off is normal for us here on earth. And it's not because of what God lacks, but what we lack.  And that, my friend, is the greatest reminder why our faith must be stronger than any feelings. Because feelings are fleeting. But God's love for you is forever. So cling to His promises, seek Him diligently in His Word, pray, worship, and be grateful for the blessings you choose to see. As you navigate through these seasons where God appears to be hiding, may your faith be strengthened, and may you find hope, comfort, and unwavering trust in our risen Lord and Savior. God's got you!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

We all have moments when we sense a distance from God. We can still find comfort in God's hidden presence. Despite our best efforts, it can feel like God is hiding Himself, which leaves us longing for His presence. However, God never leaves you nor forsakes you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Isaiah 45:15 - "Truly, you are a God who has been hiding himself, the God and Savior of Israel." But even if God is hiding from you, He is still your God and Savior.  You know, God challenges our faith. Yet we still have to understand that He is still doing work on your behalf. You may feel a little distant, but that doesn't mean He's not moving mountains for you in the background. It might seem surprising to acknowledge that God hides Himself, but it is a reminder that His ways and methods are beyond our comprehension. In times of feeling distant from God, we may question His presence and wonder why He allows such periods of perceived absence. However, as we read here in Isaiah, it challenges us to have faith and trust in His sovereignty, even when we cannot fully grasp His ways. Just like the hidden God in Isaiah 45:15, we must learn to trust in God's unseen work during seasons of distance. Although we may not always perceive His presence, God is continuously at work in our lives, orchestrating events and molding us according to His plan.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Find comfort in God's hidden presence! And that's another reason why we need to be in His Word. Because the Bible acts as a compass, guiding us closer to God, even when we feel distant. By diving into God's Word, you get to discover comfort, direction, and the assurance of His unfailing love. It's in those pages, that His Words speak comfort to us when we feel like we are playing hide and seek. I mean think about this, there are stories in the Bible of individuals who experienced God's hidden presence but were ultimately drawn nearer to Him. So during these times of perceived distance, prayer becomes a lifeline to connect with God. Pouring out your heart to Him, sharing your struggles, doubts, and desires, bringing Him into your present circumstances. Although God's response may not always be immediate or evident, our prayers serve as an avenue for that intimacy with Him. Now most people don't want to hear that God having His ringer turned off is normal for us here on earth. And it's not because of what God lacks, but what we lack.  And that, my friend, is the greatest reminder why our faith must be stronger than any feelings. Because feelings are fleeting. But God's love for you is forever. So cling to His promises, seek Him diligently in His Word, pray, worship, and be grateful for the blessings you choose to see. As you navigate through these seasons where God appears to be hiding, may your faith be strengthened, and may you find hope, comfort, and unwavering trust in our risen Lord and Savior. God's got you!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You only succeed to the proportion you work at it. Despite whose fault is what, you can impact and preserve the flickering flames of hope.  Navigating a marriage where one spouse seems less invested can be disheartening. It's a challenge! But it's important to know that you, as an individual, can still make an impact. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Now I must say that when you're in the thick of it, everything seems impossible. But as you know, nothing is impossible with God. And if you are willing and ready to take A.I.M., God will work on your spouse while you work on yourself. You see, that's the problem. Most people blame their spouses for the troubles in their marriage. Yet just as it takes two to tango, it takes two to get you where you are; good, bad, or ugly. So you genuinely want to nurture hope in your marriage, you have to be willing to look in the mirror.  Because if not, you might as well turn off this episode and stop listening to me.  You need to do your part in order to nurture hope in your marriage. So what can you do since you're in it to win it? The K.I.S.S. ~ Be in it to win it! You have gotta be in it to win it. You have got to be drivin' the boat, not just floating in the water. Because eventually, you'll sink otherwise.  1. Lead by Example When there are situations where one spouse appears less committed, it's crucial to lead by example and demonstrate the qualities you desire in your marriage. By doing so, it allows you to make a positive impact while still respecting your partner's journey. a. Communicate with compassion: Enhance your communication skills by expressing your hopes, concerns, and desires with love and empathy. Show your commitment by listening actively. Respond thoughtfully to your spouse's needs. b. Foster personal growth: Focus on your own personal growth and development. By becoming the best version of yourself, you not only increase your confidence but also inspire your partner to embark on their own journey of self-improvement. c. Show love and kindness: Even in the face of challenges, continue to demonstrate love, kindness, and gratitude. Small gestures, acts of service, and affectionate moments can reignite a spark and remind your partner of the beauty and potential of your relationship. 2. Seek Professional Support When faced with a seemingly imbalanced level of commitment, seeking professional help can be a transformative step. A marriage counselor or therapist can provide guidance, tools, and strategies to navigate the challenges you may be facing. If you're in the water, you need to know how to get back in the boat. a. Encourage the idea of counseling: Approach the subject of counseling with sensitivity and grace. Express your willingness to make a positive change and emphasize the potential benefits that professional guidance can bring to both individuals and the relationship. b. Attend counseling sessions individually: If your spouse remains hesitant to attend joint sessions, consider going for individual counseling to address your struggles, gain clarity, and develop strategies for coping with the situation. Individual growth can often spur positive change within the marriage. c. Explore books and resources: Supplement professional counseling by reading books, listening to podcasts, or participating in online programs that focus on personal and relationship development. Share what you learn with your partner, creating opportunities for open and meaningful discussions. 3. Prioritize Self-Care When faced with a challenging marriage dynamic, it's important to prioritize self-care as a means of maintaining your own emotional and mental well-being. Taking care of yourself helps you approach the relationship with a calmer mindset and a renewed sense of hope. a. Practice self-reflection and self-awareness: Regularly take time to reflect on your own feelings and emotions. Understand your own needs, triggers, and boundaries, as well as what you are willing to work through to preserve your marriage. b. Engage in stress-relieving activities: Engage in activities that bring you joy, cultivate peace, and reduce stress levels. Whether it's exercise, meditation, journaling, or spending time with friends, these activities will nurture your emotional well-being and provide you with the necessary strength to navigate challenges. c. Set healthy boundaries: Establish and communicate healthy boundaries within the relationship. This will help protect your emotional well-being while fostering an environment for open communication and mutual respect. Inspiration and Hope While it may be challenging, remember that all hope is not lost. Many couples have experienced seasons where one partner was less invested initially, only to witness remarkable transformations in the future. So understand this... - Change is possible: People can grow and evolve in unpredictable ways. By fostering an environment of love, acceptance, and support, your spouse may eventually undergo a positive transformation. - Focus on your own growth: By prioritizing your personal development, you create a ripple effect that can inspire change in your spouse. Lead by example and allow your growth to ignite the spark of transformation within your marriage. - Keep the lines of communication open: Continuously communicate your feelings, concerns, and hopes with your spouse. Honest and vulnerable conversations can be the catalyst for positive change. Remember, each marriage is unique, and no situation is entirely hopeless. Hope is not lost in a day!    "Be present.

Survival mode kicks into overdrive. Yet, you can find joy in imperfect summers; why bad looks good. Let's be real! We, as parents, often find ourselves wrestling with mixed feelings. On one hand, there's the excitement of a break from school and the prospect of fun family adventures. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But on the other hand, there's the challenge of managing unpredictable schedules, keeping the kids entertained, and maintaining a sense of order. It's easy to label these moments as "bad," but what if we shift our perspective. Come on! Let's look at these things a little differently. Then we have the opportunity to discover, that even in the chaos and unpredictability, there is an abundance of goodness. Right now, I want you to imagine that your summer is full of possibilities and potential. So let's embrace the imperfect moments of summer and uncover the hidden gems that make this season truly beautiful. The K.I.S.S. ~ Uncover the hidden gems! 1. Embrace Spontaneity Summer often disrupts our usual routines and schedules, and this can initially feel unsettling. However, instead of trying to control every moment, embrace the beauty of spontaneity. Allow yourself and your children to experience the joy of unexpected adventures, spontaneous playdates, and impromptu outings. These moments create lasting memories that cannot be replicated in a structured environment. Remember, it is in the moments of unplanned happiness that the best memories are made. Also, if you like teachable moments. Technically, you're teaching flexibility. Plus, you're getting to flex those muscles yourself. We all could use a little muscle memory, too. 2. Find Beauty in Simplicity Without the demands of school, summer offers a unique opportunity to slow down and savor the simple pleasures of life. Take time to enjoy lazy afternoons at the park, family picnics, or beach outings. Embrace the simplicity of children's laughter, melting ice cream, and warm summer breezes. Often, the most treasured moments are found in the simplest of experiences. 3. Cultivate a Grateful Heart Gratitude is a powerful tool for shifting our perspective from negative to positive. Instead of focusing on what feels overwhelming or challenging, choose to focus on the blessings that come with the summer season. Practice gratitude for the extra time you get to spend with your children, the opportunity to explore new places, and the chance to create beautiful memories together. Gratitude has the power to transform our mindset and help us see the goodness even in the midst of what may seem "bad." As parents, we often strive for perfection in our efforts to create an ideal summer experience for our children. Yet, it is important to remember that perfection is an illusion. Embrace the imperfections, the messiness, and the uncertainty, knowing that it is in these moments that true growth and joy reside. As American writer Henry David Thoreau beautifully said, "It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see." Look beyond the chaos and find the beauty in the imperfect moments that make your summer season truly extraordinary.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't let old habits die hard. Adopt what can serve your greater health; out of sight, out of mind. We often find ourselves giving in to temptations and falling back into unhealthy habits.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Nothing is impossible! And yes!! You matter!!! But you have to understand that good or bad can be front and center. So you want to make sure you are building habits that create your now with an emphasis on well-being! The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! Life is too short to wait. You can do everything in one day. But you can take one step. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Create a Supportive Environment a. Remove Temptations: When unhealthy snacks are within arm's reach, it's hard to resist them. Replace these items with nutritious alternatives like fruits and nuts. b. Organize Your Space: A clean and well-organized living space can promote a calm and focused mindset, making it easier to prioritize your health goals. c. Surround Yourself with Positive Influences: Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who share similar goals can provide inspiration, encouragement, and accountability. 2. Mindful Meal Planning a. Stock a Healthy Pantry: Fill your kitchen with nutritious ingredients to make meal prepping a breeze. Keep fresh produce visible and easily accessible, encouraging you to choose them over less healthy options. Color draws us closer. b. Portion Control: Use smaller plates and bowls to manage portion sizes. When we see less food on our plate, we naturally consume fewer calories but still feel satisfied. c. Meal Prepping: Prepare your meals in advance, portioning them into individual containers to minimize decision fatigue and avoid relying on last-minute fast food choices. 3. Utilize Technology Effectively a. Fitness Apps: Download fitness apps to track your activity levels, set goals, and receive reminders. These apps keep your health in focus, even on busy days. b. Healthy Recipe Apps: Explore apps that offer a vast collection of nutritious recipes to experiment with, making healthy cooking exciting and fun. c. Social Media for Inspiration: Follow health and wellness influencers or join online communities to stay motivated and gain insights from others on the path to better health. 4. Mental Well-being First a. Digital Detox: Limit screen time before bed, as exposure to blue light can disrupt sleep patterns. Establish a tech-free zone in your home to foster relaxation and disconnect from distractions. b. Mindfulness Practices: Incorporate mindfulness techniques like meditation or yoga into your daily routine to help manage stress levels and focus on your overall well-being. c. Celebrate Your Progress: Acknowledge and reward yourself when you reach milestones on your health journey. This positive reinforcement will help you stay motivated and enthusiastic about making further improvements.   By embracing the "out of sight, out of mind" concept and applying it to our health goals, we can create an environment that supports healthy living and fosters positive habits. Keep the temptations away but with the good in front! Be mindful and persevere. You can change the course of your well-being and pave the way for a happier, healthier life. Remember, a small step today can lead to significant transformations tomorrow. Let's harness the power of psychology and take charge of our health one day at a time!   "Train for life.

As the U.S. celebrates her freedom, it's time to declare your independence. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   As we gather today, on the 4th of July, to celebrate the freedom we enjoy in the United States, it is essential to remember the incredible journey our forefathers embarked upon to make their dreams a reality. With unwavering focus and a burning desire to create a new nation, they put pen to paper to craft the Declaration of Independence, forever changing the course of history.  When the founding fathers penned the Declaration of Independence, they made a bold declaration, asserting their determination to break free from the chains of oppression. Their conviction and courage remind us of the importance of clarifying our own goals and aspirations. Just like them, declare your independence from self-limiting beliefs, distractions, and doubts. By declaring your intentions, you set yourself on a path to success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Declare your independence! In the pursuit of your dreams, it is easy to get sidetracked by comparison or the desire to emulate others. However, those who signed the Declaration of Independence understood the significance of staying focused on their own vision. Just as they did not look side to side but remained united in their goals, you must learn to stay in your own lane and cultivate your unique talents and strengths, your God-given gifts. This unwavering focus enables you to make the most significant impact in your life and the lives of others. The journey to independence is seldom easy. The Founding Fathers experienced numerous challenges and setbacks in their quest for freedom. Yet, they never wavered or lost hope. Instead, they held on tightly to their belief in their vision. Similarly, you must remain steadfast in your commitment to your dreams, embracing the inevitable ups and downs that come with it. The process of realizing your goals often leads you down unexpected paths, fostering personal growth and creating a journey of a lifetime. "And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor." The 4th of July serves as a reminder of the incredible power that comes from staying focused and encouraged in the pursuit of our dreams. Just as our forefathers found inspiration in the Declaration of Independence, you can draw strength from their conviction to declare your own independence and create your now, a called life with passion. Stay in your lane, resist comparison, and embrace the journey ahead, knowing that with focus and encouragement, one step at a time leads to miles of greatness (Kristianne Wargo)!

As the U.S. celebrates her freedom, it's time to declare your independence. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."

With unwavering focus and a burning desire to create a new nation, they put pen to paper to craft the Declaration of Independence, forever changing the course of history.  When the founding fathers penned the Declaration of Independence, they made a bold declaration, asserting their determination to break free from the chains of oppression. Their conviction and courage remind us of the importance of clarifying our own goals and aspirations. Just like them, declare your independence from self-limiting beliefs, distractions, and doubts. By declaring your intentions, you set yourself on a path to success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Declare your independence! In the pursuit of your dreams, it is easy to get sidetracked by comparison or the desire to emulate others. However, those who signed the Declaration of Independence understood the significance of staying focused on their own vision. Just as they did not look side to side but remained united in their goals, you must learn to stay in your own lane and cultivate your unique talents and strengths, your God-given gifts. This unwavering focus enables you to make the most significant impact in your life and the lives of others. The journey to independence is seldom easy. The Founding Fathers experienced numerous challenges and setbacks in their quest for freedom. Yet, they never wavered or lost hope. Instead, they held on tightly to their belief in their vision. Similarly, you must remain steadfast in your commitment to your dreams, embracing the inevitable ups and downs that come with it. The process of realizing your goals often leads you down unexpected paths, fostering personal growth and creating a journey of a lifetime. "And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor." The 4th of July serves as a reminder of the incredible power that comes from staying focused and encouraged in the pursuit of our dreams. Just as our forefathers found inspiration in the Declaration of Independence, you can draw strength from their conviction to declare your own independence and create your now, a called life with passion. Stay in your lane, resist comparison, and embrace the journey ahead, knowing that with focus and encouragement, one step at a time leads to miles of greatness (Kristianne Wargo)! Have a blessed Independence Day!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

When we're in search of personal growth and success, the power of the mind and what happens within it, meaning your mindset, cannot be overlooked.

You can certainly draw inspiration from both Biblical principles and the ideals captured in the Declaration of Independence to the point where you can unlock your potential and lead a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Freedom begins in the mind! 1. The Freedom of Choice Just as the Declaration of Independence proclaims the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, we find a similar concept echoed in biblical teachings. Both emphasize the importance of having the freedom to choose our thoughts, beliefs, and actions. By realizing that we have control over our own minds, we can break free from the constraints of self-doubt and negativity. 2. Pursuit of Truth and Self-Discovery The Declaration of Independence suggests the need for critical thinking and the pursuit of truth. Similarly, the Bible encourages us to seek wisdom, knowledge, and a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us. By adopting a growth mindset, we can continuously learn, evolve, and challenge our existing beliefs. This pursuit of truth and self-discovery allows us to break through limitations and expand our horizons. 3. Relying on Faith and Conviction The Declaration of Independence was a bold act fueled by the faith and conviction that a better future was within reach. Similarly, biblical teachings encourage us to have faith in ourselves and our abilities. By anchoring our mindset in unwavering belief and determination, we become empowered to overcome obstacles, persevere, and accomplish great things. 4. Embracing Resilience and Perseverance The journey to independence, whether personal or national, is often paved with challenges and setbacks. The Declaration of Independence underscores the resilience and perseverance required to achieve freedom. Similarly, biblical stories show us that trials and tribulations can be stepping stones to personal growth. Developing a mindset of resilience allows us to overcome adversity and bounce back stronger. Just as the Declaration of Independence symbolizes the birth of a nation founded on the principles of freedom and self-determination, it can serve as inspiration for our own personal journeys of growth and transformation. By adopting a mindset that embraces choice, truth-seeking, faith, and resilience, we can break free from self-imposed limitations and create a life filled with meaning, purpose, and freedom. Let us declare independence from our own limiting beliefs. Stack your ground. Get ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and personal fulfillment. Remember, freedom begins in the mind, and it is within your power to choose a mindset that sets you free. Declare your independence today and unlock your true potential!   "Be present. Be incredible.

God guides you to positions, places, and possibilities. But it's up to you to take the first step. Are you waiting for God to go first? In our journey of faith, we often find ourselves waiting for God to make the first move. We look to Him for guidance, direction, and miraculous interventions. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But you must be willing to step out in faith, even when you cannot see the outcome. So take a deep breath. I want you to explore the concept of walking by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7), and how taking the first step can lead to extraordinary possibilities. Paul is writing to the Corinthians, specifically addressing the believers in the city of Corinth. This verse is part of a larger letter that Paul wrote to the Corinthian church to address various issues and encourage them in their faith. Preaching the truth of Christ to the world has brought Paul and his co-workers great suffering, yet they persist and persevere in contending for the faith. They refuse to give up, living with unwavering courage because they firmly believe in the resurrection of Christ. They eagerly anticipate receiving glorified, eternal bodies that will free them from all earthly burdens and striving. As Paul eloquently expresses in 2 Corinthians 5:7, they walk, or rather live or make a habit, by faith and not by what they see. In other words, their unshakable belief in the gospel, including their own resurrection and eternal fulfillment, that they too will be raised up, allows them to see beyond the present struggles. They may experience death, pain, suffering, adversity, opposition, and challenges, but they consider the unseen, yet promised, blessings awaiting them with Christ as more real than any temporary hardship in the present moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Are you waiting for God to go first? Because you are called by God to walk by faith. Throughout the Bible, we are reminded of the importance of walking by faith. This verse encourages you to trust in God's plan, even when it doesn't appear logical or feasible. Just like Peter walked on water when Jesus called him to step out of the boat (Matthew 14:28-31), you too are called to trust and obey, even in the face of uncertainty. And remember, God guides, you decide. While God goes before you, leading you to positions, places, and possibilities, He also desires for you to participate actively in your faith journey. He wants you to step out in faith, even before you see the outcome. Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." By acknowledging God and following His guidance, you open yourself up to incredible opportunities and blessings. Of course, you've got to step out in faith. Just as Peter experienced the freedom of walking on water once he took that first step, you too can experience the freedom and abundance that comes from walking by faith. When you decide to trust God and act in obedience, you tap into His strength (supernatural power and provision). It may not always be easy, and you will face challenges along the way, but by taking that leap of faith, you open yourself up to an extraordinary life of purpose and fulfillment. Don't wait for God to make the first move. Instead, choose to step out in faith and trust in His guidance. Remember that faith is not merely a belief system, but rather a transformative experience that requires action. Just like Peter, walking on water requires stepping out of your comfort zone and embracing the unknown. Allow God to go before you, but be willing to cut in line and take that first step. As you walk by faith, not by sight, you'll discover the incredible possibilities that lie ahead. PRAYER: God doesn't want you to be a shadow. He wants you to step out in faith. God wants you to lead as He guides you so you can impact the world that you touch. May God continue to open the doors as you stay ready and willing to walk by faith, not by sight.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday   🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

They refuse to give up, living with unwavering courage because they firmly believe in the resurrection of Christ. They eagerly anticipate receiving glorified, eternal bodies that will free them from all earthly burdens and striving. As Paul eloquently expresses in 2 Corinthians 5:7, they walk, or rather live or make a habit, by faith and not by what they see. In other words, their unshakable belief in the gospel, including their own resurrection and eternal fulfillment, that they too will be raised up, allows them to see beyond the present struggles. They may experience death, pain, suffering, adversity, opposition, and challenges, but they consider the unseen, yet promised, blessings awaiting them with Christ as more real than any temporary hardship in the present moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Are you waiting for God to go first? Because you are called by God to walk by faith. Throughout the Bible, we are reminded of the importance of walking by faith. This verse encourages you to trust in God's plan, even when it doesn't appear logical or feasible. Just like Peter walked on water when Jesus called him to step out of the boat (Matthew 14:28-31), you too are called to trust and obey, even in the face of uncertainty. And remember, God guides, you decide. While God goes before you, leading you to positions, places, and possibilities, He also desires for you to participate actively in your faith journey. He wants you to step out in faith, even before you see the outcome. Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." By acknowledging God and following His guidance, you open yourself up to incredible opportunities and blessings. Of course, you've got to step out in faith. Just as Peter experienced the freedom of walking on water once he took that first step, you too can experience the freedom and abundance that comes from walking by faith. When you decide to trust God and act in obedience, you tap into His strength (supernatural power and provision). It may not always be easy, and you will face challenges along the way, but by taking that leap of faith, you open yourself up to an extraordinary life of purpose and fulfillment. Don't wait for God to make the first move. Instead, choose to step out in faith and trust in His guidance. Remember that faith is not merely a belief system, but rather a transformative experience that requires action. Just like Peter, walking on water requires stepping out of your comfort zone and embracing the unknown. Allow God to go before you, but be willing to cut in line and take that first step.

We've all experienced those moments when our buttons get pushed. But do these triggers reveal more about us than we'd like to think? This episode delves into the challenging aspects of relationships, suggesting tactful and loving ways we can respond to these trying circumstances. Learn how living out virtues like empathy, gratitude, and effective communication can not only ease tension, but also forge stronger bonds between spouses. It might not be easy, but your marriage is worth the work. Dive in if you're ready for some real talk on marriage."   **Key Points:** 1. **Practicing Empathy:** Understand your spouse's perspective even if their actions or words hurt or frustrate you. Reacting defensively is not the way to go. Instead, aim to understand the sentiment behind their words or actions. 2. **Cultivating Gratitude:** Focusing on your spouse's flaws can hinder unconditional love. Shift your focus towards the things you appreciate about them. 3. **Effective Communication:** When faced with uncomfortable situations, respond thoughtfully instead of impulsively. Practice active listening to foster better understanding.   **Links Mentioned:** - Bible verses quoted: - [Ephesians 4:32](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%204%3A32&amp;version=NIV) - [Philippians 4:8](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians%204%3A8&amp;version=NIV) - [Proverbs 15:1](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+15%3A1&amp;version=NIV)   🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Our expectations have the potential to either become a sturdy brick wall limiting their growth, or a stairway to greatness. How will the power of your expectations set your kids up for success? Think about it. Where you place the floor or the ceiling for your child will most definitely have an impact on what they do in their lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Most parents want what's best for their kiddos. Oftentimes, parents set high expectations, basically raising the bar so they will turn out better than themselves.  Who doesn't want to empower their child to soar to new heights? However, setting those expectations can come with a cost. Now, sometimes it's worth the cost, but how do you know? Are you doing what's right for your child, or is what you are doing actually stunting your child? I was reading a prayer from Timothy Keller who is an American pastor and theologian who's written many books, and it really took me back. Honestly, I was getting ready for my son to come home and visit from his internship for the holiday weekend, and so obviously, I made a parent-child connection. "If you love anything at all in this world more than God, you will crush that object under the weight of your expectations, and it will eventually break your heart. ~ Timothy Keller, prayer" As I began to break it down, I couldn't help but think how my expectations could actually be hurting my child. And not that I meant to. But what is really best for your child? Because when they fail, we hurt. The way you raise up your child has an incredible impact, good or bad. And who wants to crush their child? No one!!!  We want our children to succeed and experience more success than we had growing up. Yet, what we think might be good for our children, maybe it's more for us than them. How do you know the magnitude of the power of your expectations for your child will set them up for success? You've gotta build stairways, not walls. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build stairways, not walls! Expectations play a significant role in shaping the lives of our children. However, it is essential to approach this power with wisdom and balance. The Bible often speaks about the significance of guiding and training up our children. Proverbs 22:6 ~ "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it." Establishing a strong foundation rooted in faith and virtuous values enables our children to navigate life's challenges with integrity, intentionality, and direction. Lead with Unconditional Love: Central to our role as parents is the unconditional love we have for our children. The Bible repeatedly emphasizes the power of love in nurturing growth and development. In 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, we are reminded of the characteristics of love: patience, kindness, protection, trust, and perseverance. By embracing these qualities,  it allows us to create an atmosphere of acceptance and support, where our children can explore their passions, make mistakes, and learn valuable life lessons without fear. Again, you are building the stairway, not the wall. Guide with Grace: Our expectations should be grounded in grace, understanding, and empathy, rather than imposing unattainable standards. Perfection does not work! The Bible encourages us to be patient and compassionate in guiding our children. Ephesians 6:4 ~ "Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." Avoid harshness and instead parent with discipline that fosters growth, discipline infused with love and understanding. Recognize Individuality: Just as each of us is unique, so are our children. So celebrate individuality and honor the diverse talents and gifts bestowed upon your children. Romans 12:6 ~ "We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us." By nurturing their individual passions, interests, and strengths, you will equip your children to discover their true potential and pursue their unique calling. Building Character and Resilience: This is where balance comes in. Your expectations should not only focus on achievements but also on character development and resilience. Trials and challenges are essential for building strength and character. James 1:2-4 ~ "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance." By instilling a growth and abundance mindset within your children, you teach them to embrace challenges, learn from setbacks, and develop the resilience needed to navigate life's obstacles; what's getting in the way. Mom, Dad– we hold the privilege and responsibility of shaping our children's lives. You have got to be willing to set your expectations to the side and tap into what God has in store for your child. You can't build a stairway of greatness on your own strength. You need God to do the impossible. So by harnessing the power of expectations rooted in biblical principles, you can become agents of growth and empowerment, fueling your child's journey towards greatness. Get on your knees. By embracing love, wisdom, and grace, you create an environment where our children can thrive and fulfill their God-given potential. Don't think you've got it all under control. Approach parenting with humility. Keep your family rooted in God's Word. And as you train them up with good ethics and morals, and biblical teachings, and become the catalysts for their stairway to greatness.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Within all this beautiful chaos, there's no better way to preserve the essence of your experiences than to write your story.  "A life worth living is a life worth recording." - Jim Rohn Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Journaling holds the key to capturing these moments and cherishing them for years to come. It is a practice that allows you to reflect, grow, and create a living legacy. Whether in the form of a personal diary or a collection of thoughts, journaling offers a profound opportunity for introspection and self-discovery. It serves as a mirror, reflecting our innermost thoughts, emotions, and aspirations. Through the act of putting pen to paper, you embark on a voyage of self-reflection, personal growth and development, and healing. When you reflect upon your journeys, you gain valuable insights into your life. You identify patterns, recognize areas for improvement, and celebrate your accomplishments. Journaling becomes a powerful tool to realign your actions with your aspirations. It helps you prioritize what truly matters and navigate the labyrinth of life with intention and purpose, those mazes were you get lost too often. In the busyness of your life, journaling makes a way to be present and mindful. Slow down. Take a moment and appreciate the beauty that surrounds you. By documenting even the simplest of joys and expressing gratitude for what you have, you cultivate a deeper sense of contentment and fulfillment.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Write your story! Beyond the realm of self-reflection, when you write your story, it holds the power to heal. It becomes a safe space where you can pour your emotions onto the pages and untangle the complexities that life presents. It's in your writing that you give yourself permission to express feelings of happiness, sadness, frustration, or hope. As you witness your thoughts and emotions on paper, you gain clarity, find peace, and grow stronger in your emotional well-being.

Within all this beautiful chaos, there's no better way to preserve the essence of your experiences than to write your story.  "A life worth living is a life worth recording." - Jim Rohn Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Journaling holds the key to capturing these moments and cherishing them for years to come. It is a practice that allows you to reflect, grow, and create a living legacy. Whether in the form of a personal diary or a collection of thoughts, journaling offers a profound opportunity for introspection and self-discovery. It serves as a mirror, reflecting our innermost thoughts, emotions, and aspirations. Through the act of putting pen to paper, you embark on a voyage of self-reflection, personal growth and development, and healing. When you reflect upon your journeys, you gain valuable insights into your life. You identify patterns, recognize areas for improvement, and celebrate your accomplishments. Journaling becomes a powerful tool to realign your actions with your aspirations. It helps you prioritize what truly matters and navigate the labyrinth of life with intention and purpose, those mazes were you get lost too often. In the busyness of your life, journaling makes a way to be present and mindful. Slow down. Take a moment and appreciate the beauty that surrounds you. By documenting even the simplest of joys and expressing gratitude for what you have, you cultivate a deeper sense of contentment and fulfillment.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Write your story! Beyond the realm of self-reflection, when you write your story, it holds the power to heal. It becomes a safe space where you can pour your emotions onto the pages and untangle the complexities that life presents. It's in your writing that you give yourself permission to express feelings of happiness, sadness, frustration, or hope. As you witness your thoughts and emotions on paper, you gain clarity, find peace, and grow stronger in your emotional well-being. The more you write, the more you see your unique perspectives, values, and lessons for yourself and future generations. Your story becomes a time capsule, allowing those who come after you to gain insight and inspiration from your life. You, my friend, are a living legacy!  As fast as the world is changing, writing your story is an anchor amidst the storm. It is a practice that invites you to pause, reflect, and connect with who you are becoming and, more importantly, God.  So, let's have a transformative day. Write your story no matter which way. Embrace your stories every day., both big and small. Uncover what's hidden deep within and expose the secrets that will change the world you touch. Leave your indelible mark on this world, for a life worth living is a life worth recording.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Everyone goes through difficult times when they feel stuck, unmotivated, and tired. Even with a great life, you struggle. But don't worry! There's always a way to lift your spirit! Say yes to boost your mood! In your every day, there are so many areas where you can do something to elevate how you feel. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   I want to give you three areas where you can boost your mood: food, fitness, and fellowship. FOOD: Nutritional Delights When it comes to boosting your mood, the food you eat plays a significant role. Certain foods are known to have a positive impact on your brain chemistry and can help improve your overall well-being. Here are 10 mood-boosting foods that will nourish both your body and mind: 1. Dark Chocolate: Indulge in a small piece of dark chocolate to stimulate the release of endorphins, which are chemicals that contribute to feelings of pleasure and happiness. 2. Berries: Packed with antioxidants and vitamins, berries like blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries offer a natural boost to mood and cognitive function. 3. Fatty Fish: Fish such as salmon, mackerel, and sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce symptoms of depression and boost overall brain health. 4. Leafy Greens: Greens like spinach, kale, and Swiss chard are loaded with folate and other essential nutrients that support the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter linked to mood regulation. 5. Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, walnuts, flaxseeds, and chia seeds are excellent sources of omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients that promote brain health and stability. 6. Avocado: This creamy fruit contains healthy fats, fiber, and various minerals that not only promote a healthy heart but also support brain function and mood stability. 7. Greek Yogurt: Rich in protein, Greek yogurt helps stabilize blood sugar levels and contains amino acids that support the production of mood-boosting neurotransmitters like serotonin. 8. Whole Grains: Complex carbohydrates found in whole grains like oats, quinoa, and brown rice increase the production of serotonin, providing a natural mood lift. 9. Turmeric: This spice contains curcumin, known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Consuming turmeric regularly has been linked to improved mood and reduced symptoms of depression. 10. Green Tea: High in antioxidants and containing the amino acid theanine, green tea can help relax the mind, improve focus, and promote a sense of well-being. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! FITNESS: Pump up the Jam Exercising not only benefits our physical health but also has a powerful impact on our mood and mental well-being. Engaging in regular physical activity can help release endorphins, reduce stress, and improve overall mood. Here are 10 mood-boosting exercises that can uplift your spirits and leave you feeling energized: 1. Cardiovascular Exercises: Activities like running, cycling, dancing, or swimming increase your heart rate and promote the release of endorphins, providing an instant mood uplift. 2. Yoga: Known for its focus on breathing and mindfulness, yoga combines gentle movements with deep breathing, helping to reduce stress, promote relaxation, and improve overall mood. 3. Strength Training: Engage in weightlifting or bodyweight exercises to increase your strength and build endurance. Strength training has been linked to improved self-esteem and confidence, positively impacting mood. 4. Pilates: This low-impact exercise focuses on controlled movements that enhance strength, flexibility, and body awareness. Practicing Pilates can help relieve stress and improve mood. 5. Walking or Hiking: Taking a walk in nature or going for a hike in the mountains can have a profound effect on your mood. Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce feelings of stress and increase feelings of well-being. 6. Dance: Join a dance class or simply dance around your living room to your favorite tunes. Dancing releases endorphins and allows you to express yourself creatively, boosting your mood and spirits. 7. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT): Short bursts of intense exercise followed by brief recovery periods can help release endorphins and provide a sense of accomplishment, leaving you feeling invigorated and positive. 8. Tai Chi: This ancient Chinese martial art combines slow, fluid movements with deep breathing and meditation. Tai Chi promotes relaxation, reduces anxiety, and enhances overall mood. 9. Group Exercise Classes: Joining group exercise classes, such as spinning, Zumba, or aerobics, not only provides a fun and social element but also boosts your mood through the combination of music, movement, and high energy. 10. Mindful Stretching: Incorporate mindful stretching routines, such as yoga stretches or focused stretching exercises, to release tension, improve flexibility, and promote a sense of calm and well-being. Get moving and start reaping the mood-boosting rewards today! GENERAL EVERY DAY: Uplift Your Spirit These are 10 simple ways to help boost your mood and feel better: 1. Take Deep Breaths - Deep breathing is a great way to calm your mind and relax your body. Inhale for 5 seconds, hold for 5 seconds, and exhale for 5 seconds. 2. Write Your Thoughts - Writing down your thoughts and feelings can help you identify what's bothering you and give you a clear perspective. Try writing in a journal or sending a text to a friend. 3. Listen to Music - Listening to your favorite music can instantly improve your mood. Make a playlist with your favorite songs that make you feel happy and energized. 4. Take a Walk - Taking a walk outside can help clear your mind and recharge your body. Even a short walk around the block can make a big difference. 5. Meditate - Meditation is a great way to reduce stress and anxiety. It can also help you focus on the present moment and increase your overall sense of well-being. 6. Connect with Friends and Loved Ones - Spend time with friends or family members who make you feel happy and supported. Talk about positive things and catch up on each other's lives. 7. Practice Gratitude - Focus on the positive things in your life and practice gratitude. Write down three things you're grateful for every day or send a thank-you note to someone who has helped you recently. 8. Enjoy a Hobby - Dedicate some time to a hobby you enjoy doing, like cooking, baking, painting, or gardening. Hobbies can help you relax and feel fulfilled. 9. Treat Yourself - Treat yourself to something you enjoy, like a delicious meal or your favorite dessert. Do something that makes you happy and feel good. 10. Laugh and Smile: Surround yourself with laughter whenever possible. Watch a funny video clip, read a witty joke, or share a funny anecdote with a friend. Additionally, make a conscious effort to smile more throughout the day. Smiling not only enhances your own mood but also has a contagious effect on others. Now, you don't have an excuse not to boost your mood. Find what works best for you and make it a habit. Remember, you have the power to boost your mood and feel better today!   "Train for Life.

Have you ever wondered how to fit in more of what you truly want or need to do? If so, it's time to start asking yourself, "Much or little?" It's easy to get caught up in the pressure to be productive all the time. But if we're always on the go, we risk neglecting our mental and physical health. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   So, take a step back and evaluate what's truly important. What are your priorities, and how can you make time for them? We live in a society that idolizes productivity and multitasking, but at what cost? It's essential to evaluate how much we can realistically take on without sacrificing our mental and physical health. Sometimes, we need to ask ourselves, "Is it worth it?" or "What are the consequences of saying yes?" Remember, you have the power to choose how you spend your precious time. Don't let the fear of missing out or society's expectations dictate your schedule. Instead, prioritize what really matters to you and block out time for those activities. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! "Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment, and to either of these ends, there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing." - Thomas Edison. There is an importance of having a purposeful strategy in our work, rather than just being busy for the sake of it. It emphasizes the need for preparation and planning in order to truly accomplish something meaningful. It ties in with the idea of asking ourselves "much or little" and prioritizing what's truly important, rather than just filling up our schedules with busy work. Our kids complain at school that the only thing they get is busy work from their teachers. Why are we doing this to ourselves after we grow up? (Well, that can be for another episode.) But when you're feeling overwhelmed, take a deep breath and remind yourself that less is often more. In fact, slowing down is speeding up. So take those breaks to help you be more productive in the long run. Practice self-care, delegate tasks, and avoid distractions to stay focused on your goals. Whether it's pursuing your passion, spending time with loved ones, or simply taking a few moments to relax, make it a priority. So, ask yourself, "Much or little?" and start making time for the things that truly matter. You've got this!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Have you ever wondered how to fit in more of what you truly want or need to do? If so, it's time to start asking yourself, "Much or little?" It's easy to get caught up in the pressure to be productive all the time. But if we're always on the go, we risk neglecting our mental and physical health. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   So, take a step back and evaluate what's truly important. What are your priorities, and how can you make time for them? We live in a society that idolizes productivity and multitasking, but at what cost? It's essential to evaluate how much we can realistically take on without sacrificing our mental and physical health. Sometimes, we need to ask ourselves, "Is it worth it?" or "What are the consequences of saying yes?" Remember, you have the power to choose how you spend your precious time. Don't let the fear of missing out or society's expectations dictate your schedule. Instead, prioritize what really matters to you and block out time for those activities. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! "Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment, and to either of these ends, there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing." - Thomas Edison. There is an importance of having a purposeful strategy in our work, rather than just being busy for the sake of it. It emphasizes the need for preparation and planning in order to truly accomplish something meaningful. It ties in with the idea of asking ourselves "much or little" and prioritizing what's truly important, rather than just filling up our schedules with busy work. Our kids complain at school that the only thing they get is busy work from their teachers. Why are we doing this to ourselves after we grow up? (Well, that can be for another episode.) But when you're feeling overwhelmed, take a deep breath and remind yourself that less is often more. In fact, slowing down is speeding up. So take those breaks to help you be more productive in the long run. Practice self-care, delegate tasks, and avoid distractions to stay focused on your goals. Whether it's pursuing your passion, spending time with loved ones, or simply taking a few moments to relax, make it a priority. So, ask yourself, "Much or little?" and start making time for the things that truly matter. You've got this!   "Be present. Be incredible.

You might be stuck in the pain, and all you can do is blame. But why give in and complain? Take heart to who matters; you wanna be happy. Happiness is one of those things that when you aren't feeling it, you want to feel it.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   You begin clinging to what you don't have, wishing that all could be different. You take yourself down memory lane (usually too often and too far), and take inventory of all the things where you felt lost, disconnected, unsure of yourself; just questioning everything about everyone, especially yourself. Fear jumps up, front and center, and all you can do is coward back to the corner of rejection and your foolish ways of discounting all that you have to offer the world. Sound all too familiar? Sound a little too close to home? Happiness is not felt, it's created by your actions, thoughts, words; how you communicate with the world you touch. But the first communication has to start inwardly. You have to see the happiness within to be able to give it to others. You know everyone wants to be happy. It's a common thread that runs through all of us. But as you know, happiness is not something that comes naturally to everyone. It's not something that you wait for or hope for. It's not something that falls into your lap. Happiness is a choice, and it's up to you to make it happen. The old saying, "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life," is true. You have to work within your calling, your passion, your gifts and talents, and your interests to be truly happy. When you do what you love, you feel fulfilled, energized, and motivated. You are more likely to create that feeling of bliss, the happiness in your everyday tasks and challenges that come your way. Life comes with a lot of changes. Change is a constant.  But one thing that doesn't have to change is how to make a choice and choose to be happy when you create your now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now! You wanna be happy! Your life doesn't have to resemble calm, cool, and collected to be in a happy state.  There are many days that I run around going from one project to the next, hoping to keep my mind in place, but happiness still abounds.  Happiness is not a choice of when, it's a matter of perspective. 1. Be present Presence conquers fear that lingers in the hallways of your heart. You don't have to have all the money in the world to be happy. But you do have to present in order to use it. Right? You can't interject the feelings of warm snuggles and smiles unless you're present. It's easy to get caught up in worries about the future or regrets about the past. Instead, try to focus on being content in the moment. This might mean taking a few moments to appreciate the beauty of nature, connecting with loved ones, or engaging in a mindfulness or meditation practice.  You have to slow down to speed up. Presence also invokes the simplicity of balance. All seems right with your world when you feel like you're in control. Life may be throwing curveballs, yet you're catching everyone of them. Not much has to throw you off base.  Be present. 2. Be grateful When you focus on what you are grateful for, it sets the stage for acceptance and genuine compassion for what's to come. As much as you think you're in control, you so are not. You only control yourself. But what you can control is the environment you create around who you are. If you feel welcomed in your own space, imagine how someone will feel welcomed by your grace. So when you step out of your comfort zone with gratitude, the fear of the unknown fades, which makes way for better days. "Gratitude is the spice to keep life nice." ~ Kristianne Wargo Be grateful. 3. Take A.I.M. "Action ignites motivation!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When you have something to work towards, it can help you feel motivated and accomplished. So let your actions and words create your now. Identify what you want in this season of your life. Break them down into smaller, actionable steps. Don't try to do everything in one day! You're fooling yourself. But you can borrow Arnold's movie quote, "I'll be back.". If you did everything in one day, what would you have to look forward to tomorrow? As you take A.I.M. in your every day, you master your life in every way. But don't forget the most important step. In all that you do, do it for the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10:31).  This is the beginning of choosing to see life in a unique manner, not expecting something from your success or failure, but recognizing that with each step you take, happiness is homemade. The world can seem cold and dark. You might be stuck in the pain, and all you can do is blame. But why give in and complain? Take heart to who matters; you wanna be happy.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But maybe you're ready for an upgrade, thinking the grass is always greener on the other side when it comes to your spouse. Often, the best way to upgrade your relationship is to upgrade yourself. When you think about it, as two people come together, each with their own set of beliefs, values, and habits, there will inevitably be disagreements, misunderstandings, and hurt feelings. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, it is how we overcome these challenges that can make or break the marriage. So instead of viewing the difficulties of marriage as a sign that something is wrong with our spouse, we should consider it as an opportunity for growth and self-improvement. By upgrading ourselves, we can improve the overall quality of our relationship and experience deeper love and connection with our partner. Now one reason why you should consider upgrading yourself in your marriage is that you have the most control over yourself and your actions. It's easy to blame your spouse for the problems in the relationship, but if you take responsibility for your own growth and improvement, you can create positive changes that will benefit you both. Yet, if you keep doing things the same way, you can't expect different results. Coming from this perspective, too, upgrading ourselves can lead to greater satisfaction and happiness in our own lives. When we take the time to work on personal growth and development, we cultivate a sense of calling, fulfillment, and inner peace that can have a positive impact on all areas of our lives, including our relationships. So now that you're ready for an upgrade, and no, not a new spouse, how can you upgrade? Change your reflection! The K.I.S.S. ~ Change your reflection!  And please know, this has nothing to do with the way you look, your shape, or your size. This is about how you show up in your everyday dealing with what comes your way today.  1. Communicate in love, and more effectively Communication is essential in any relationship, but it's particularly critical in a marriage. Make time to talk to your spouse every day. Ask questions, listen to their responses, and respond with empathy and compassion. Communication is about comprehension. Understand to the fullest. 2. Show appreciation unexpectedly It's easy to take your spouse for granted and only focus on their faults. You knock them down more than you build them up. But if you want to upgrade your relationship, it's important to appreciate the things your spouse does well. Take the time to acknowledge and thank your partner for the things they do for you. 3. Prioritize intimacy daily Marriage is more than just a friendship or companionship. Physical intimacy is a crucial aspect of a healthy relationship. Make time for intimacy, whether it's a date night or just cuddling on the couch. When we prioritize intimacy, we deepen our emotional connection with our spouse. 4. Work on your personal development and growth When you work on your personal development, you become better a person, which translates into becoming a better spouse. Take time to work on who you are becoming, know where you fall short, prioritize self-care, and challenge yourself to be better today than yesterday. When you take care of yourself, you bring more to the relationship table. 5. Practice forgiveness for yourself and let go of grudges that you hold Forgiveness is essential in any relationship, but it's particularly critical in a marriage. Holding onto resentment and grudges can hinder growth and progress in yourself. If you can't let go of things for yourself, you will not be able to let go of things done to you. Practice forgiveness, especially for the smaller things. All of this leads to loving your reflection. The more you love yourself, the more love you have to give away. Marriage is an ongoing journey. Love grows where love is planted. There are always new ways to upgrade and improve. But by focusing on your reflection, you will experience deeper love and stronger connections. So, what are you waiting for? It's time for an upgrade!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But if you want to upgrade your relationship, it's important to appreciate the things your spouse does well. Take the time to acknowledge and thank your partner for the things they do for you. 3. Prioritize intimacy daily Marriage is more than just a friendship or companionship. Physical intimacy is a crucial aspect of a healthy relationship. Make time for intimacy, whether it's a date night or just cuddling on the couch. When we prioritize intimacy, we deepen our emotional connection with our spouse. 4. Work on your personal development and growth When you work on your personal development, you become better a person, which translates into becoming a better spouse. Take time to work on who you are becoming, know where you fall short, prioritize self-care, and challenge yourself to be better today than yesterday. When you take care of yourself, you bring more to the relationship table. 5. Practice forgiveness for yourself and let go of grudges that you hold Forgiveness is essential in any relationship, but it's particularly critical in a marriage. Holding onto resentment and grudges can hinder growth and progress in yourself. If you can't let go of things for yourself, you will not be able to let go of things done to you. Practice forgiveness, especially for the smaller things. All of this leads to loving your...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1228</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,conflict,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,inspiration,intimacy,joy,leadership,marriage,mindset,presence,purpose,reconciliation,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/80404a0e9ed259f13df627c8469e604f.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3078 How Many Summers Do You Have Left with Your Kids?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3078-how-many-summers-do-you-have-left-with-your-kids--54834493</link><description><![CDATA[Summer is a season that brings joy and memories to many of us, and it's especially important for parents who have children. Stop and think. How many summers do you have left with your kids? The reality is that you only have 18 summers with your children before they grow up and leave the nest, or at least they're more on their own and less dependent on you.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   During this time, these are formative years that help to shape your children, and it's important to make the most of those years. But sometimes, life gets in the way. Between the laundry and dishes, you've got education and tires to replace. That's what I found myself working on the last few days. Two vehicles, 8 new tires. However, we can't get entangled with only the mundane things that pull us away from the little things that matter most in the long run. Your children need you!! And believe it or not, you need your children. My children have taught me so much about myself that, at times, it's pretty scary. Just look in the cute mirror you brought into the world.  How are you spending your summers? Just a couple of days ago, it was the summer solstice; the longest day of the year and the first official day of summer. How did you spend that day? What I am finding is that families are being challenged in what they do together, because so much is brought to us at our fingertips. Look at our technological advancements. So if you want to be a part of your child's life more so than just a disciplinarian, you have to be intentional about how you spend your time together, especially your summers. You only have a total of 18 and counting. Now, I get that you will still have summers together after they move out. But it's not the same. Your greatest influence is created in the four walls you live in. And that comes from their formative young child-rearing years. So, what can you do to create memories, build strong relationships, and raise your kids well every summer? You've gotta come together to stay together. The K.I.S.S. ~ Come together! It doesn't have to break the bank. I really want you to think about some out-of-the-box ideas. Go beyond the norm. Because that's where your memories will be born. 1. Create a Summer Bucket List: Sit down with your kids and create a list of things you all want to do over the summer. This can include things like visiting a new museum or theme park, camping, or trying a new restaurant. 2. Plan a Family Staycation: You don't need to travel far to have a great summer vacation. Explore your city, plan a day trip, or even just have a movie marathon at home. The important thing is to spend quality time together as a family. 3. Get Outside: There's no better way to enjoy the summer sun than to spend time outdoors. Take a hike, go for a bike ride, or have a picnic in the park. "Don't let money get in the way of what matters." ~ Kristianne Wargo 4. Learn Something New: Summer is a great time to dive into a new hobby or skill. Take a cooking class, learn how to paint, or start a new sport together. 5. Volunteer Together: Volunteering as a family not only helps others in need, but also teaches your kids valuable life lessons. Help out at a local food bank or animal shelter, or participate in a beach clean up. Summer is great for memories to be made. It's usually a time of calm and adventure. So create an environment where your children can thrive and grow up to become productive adults.  Every summer provides an opportunity to build strong relationships and create lasting memories with our children that will last a lifetime. Don't take the summers you have with your kiddos for granted. Embrace every summer and make the most of the time you have together.  So what will you start planning today to make this summer the best one yet?   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't worry about a thing. When the going gets tough, hold the line. Life is always going to have ups and downs. Maybe yesterday was one of those days.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Isn't bedtime yet? Yes, we giggle a little. But it's the truth. You can't control the weather, what happens to you, or what happens around you.  However, you can control your response.  Hold the line. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hold the line! Believe it or not, you are stronger than you think you are. You can handle much more than what you think you can. Think of it this way. When you feel like giving up, it means persevering. It means staying in the game even when you want to quit. It means refusing to give up because you believe in yourself, and you believe in your dreams. Holding the line isn't always easy. It requires you to keep moving forward, even when you feel like you're not making any progress. But the truth is, every step you take is one step closer to achieving your goals. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo You need to remember that even if you fail, it doesn't mean you label yourself as a failure. Every obstacle is a teachable moment. You have the opportunity to learn and grow. Look at it this way. As my good friend, Dan Miller says, "What does this make possible?" You get to choose to those experiences to become stronger and more resilient. "Resilience does not happen because life is easy. Resilience comes with resistance." ~ Kristianne Wargo Become unstoppable. Hold the line. So today, start by taking that next step. No matter how small it may seem, it is a step in the right direction. Then, be present. We don't worry about what's next or what's behind you. Stay in the present and be intentional about making the most of every opportunity. Peter Gabriel said, "I hold the line, the line of strength that pulls me from the fear." Now Gabriel is an English musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer. He rose to fame as the original lead singer of the progressive rock band Genesis. What I found very interesting is his early influences. And he said, "Hymns played quite a large part. They were the closest I came to soul music before I discovered soul music. There are certain hymns that you can scream your lungs out on, and I used to love that. It was great when you used to get the old shivers down the back." Take a page out from Peter Gabriel. Make a little soul noise.  Lean on God's strength. You don't have to hold the line alone. God's got you!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

When you feel like giving up, it means persevering. It means staying in the game even when you want to quit. It means refusing to give up because you believe in yourself, and you believe in your dreams. Holding the line isn't always easy. It requires you to keep moving forward, even when you feel like you're not making any progress. But the truth is, every step you take is one step closer to achieving your goals. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo You need to remember that even if you fail, it doesn't mean you label yourself as a failure. Every obstacle is a teachable moment. You have the opportunity to learn and grow. Look at it this way. As my good friend, Dan Miller says, "What does this make possible?" You get to choose to those experiences to become stronger and more resilient. "Resilience does not happen because life is easy. Resilience comes with resistance." ~ Kristianne Wargo Become unstoppable. Hold the line. So today, start by taking that next step. No matter how small it may seem, it is a step in the right direction. Then, be present. We don't worry about what's next or what's behind you. Stay in the present and be intentional about making the most of every opportunity. Peter Gabriel said, "I hold the line, the line of strength that pulls me from the fear." Now Gabriel is an English musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer. He rose to fame as the original lead singer of the progressive rock band Genesis. What I found very interesting is his early influences. And he said, "Hymns played quite a large part. They were the closest I came to soul music before I discovered soul music. There are certain hymns that you can scream your lungs out on, and I used to love that. It was great when you used to get the old shivers down the back." Take a page out from Peter Gabriel. Make a little soul noise.  Lean on God's strength. You don't have to hold the line alone. God's got you!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Are you afraid of the scale? Losing weight and living a healthy life is challenging, especially for those of us who are afraid of the scale.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But the truth is, your weight is just a number. While it's important to know where you stand in terms of your weight and overall health, it's equally important to focus on the lifestyle you're creating over time with consistent actions. How long has it taken you to get to where you are today? If you're talking about a decade, then why do you want to lose weight in 3 months? Come on! Let's use a little common sense so we don't become obsessive over the number on the scale. Now, you've probably heard the basics of reaching your desirable weight. <ul> <li>Set realistic and achievable goals</li> <li>Track your progress</li> <li> Focus on the benefits</li> <li> Don't compare yourself to others</li> <li> Patience is key</li> </ul> All of that sounds wonderful. But in a practical sense, it's a bunch of hogwash! How many times have you found yourself in that position, yet not reaching what you were going after? Healthy living is beyond tough. And there are so many temptations that lure you in the wrong direction. So let's take a different approach. Extinguish all temptations! The K.I.S.S. ~ Extinguish all temptations! And that might be getting rid of the children. Just kidding!! We love them, but we do cook for them. However, I want you to look at your environment. What needs to change that you can control? Now that's an important factor. We can want to go away for months or a year, and do our own thing. But realistically... not gonna happen! <ol> <li>Kitchen - What can be tossed away or cleaned out? Maybe you create your own cabinet or area. Get rid of the stuff in the pantry that doesn't serve you. Replace it with only what you need for a week, at most 2 weeks at a time.</li> <li>Game Room or Movie Theatre or Family - Do you have snacks readily available? Maybe you have a small fridge that needs to be stocked differently.</li> <li>Bedroom - Where are your mirrors? Maybe you can strategically place them so you are NOT obsessed with the process of healthy living. Move the full-length mirror to another room and use it only when absolutely necessary.</li> <li>Closest - How many clothes are hanging up that you can't wear; too small or too big? Clear out the clothes that don't fit. You can choose to donate some if you want. Or pack them away for 6 months. You will know when your body is changing. Then you can go shopping in your own storage area.</li> <li>Patio - Is the furniture comfortable for you now? Depending on your size, you may not want to sit where you used to hang out. So change up the area. Don't spend a lot of money, but get a chair you want to be in. Who doesn't need to be outside for some Vitamin D?</li> <li>Refrigerator - What can you replace for your easy grabs?</li> <li>Bedroom - How does your bedroom make you feel? If you are one who doesn't sleep well and there is extra tension, that in itself can lead to stress and an increase in cortisol.</li> </ol> Extinguish the temptations! Get rid of what's not serving you. It might be a forever goodbye. Or it might be a "See ya later, alligator." Doing what seems obvious might be the most challenging of you reaching your goals. And keep in mind. You are looking at a lifestyle. This is a long-term commitment. Don't rush what needs to be built over time. You got this!   "Train for life.

As we embark on this journey called life, we are bound to meet obstacles and roadblocks. It may seem easy to dwell on what went wrong in your past, but the truth is that looking back only confuses the direction you're headed.

It's time to let go of the past and start the next chapter of your life.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Start the next chapter! Yes, it may be scary to take that first step but do it anyway. You never know what amazing things could be waiting for you on the other side.      Dig in deep and press ahead. The only way to make progress is to keep moving forward.

Start the next chapter and be the author of your own story. It's never too late to follow your dreams and find fulfillment in life. The time is now. The opportunity is yours. Life is a journey with endless paths, and it is up to you to decide which direction you're headed.

But it is also full of potential and endless possibilities. You can't start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one. Every day presents new opportunities to start afresh, to begin a new chapter, and to rewrite our stories.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The journey is waiting for us to embrace and explore it. As we embark on this journey called life, we are bound to meet obstacles and roadblocks. It may seem easy to dwell on what went wrong in your past, but the truth is that looking back only confuses the direction you're headed. You become so consumed with your mistakes, failures, and missed opportunities that you forget to look ahead and move forward. It's time to let go of the past and start the next chapter of your life.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Start the next chapter! Yes, it may be scary to take that first step but do it anyway. You never know what amazing things could be waiting for you on the other side.      Dig in deep and press ahead. The only way to make progress is to keep moving forward. Believe in yourself and trust that you are capable of achieving greatness. The journey may be long and arduous, but remember that every small step counts. Even the tiniest step can lead to a better tomorrow. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo This is a chance to rewrite your story, to create a tale full of adventure, joy, and success. Don't let your fears, doubts, or past define who you are and what you can achieve. Life is full of surprises, and it's up to us to make the most of them. Start the next chapter and be the author of your own story. It's never too late to follow your dreams and find fulfillment in life. The time is now. The opportunity is yours. Life is a journey with endless paths, and it is up to you to decide which direction you're headed. Instead of dwelling on your past, you must embrace the present and start the next chapter of your life. Believe in yourself, have faith in your abilities, and embark on this new adventure with hope and enthusiasm. Remember, every small step counts. Let's make this next chapter the best one yet.

But is the profit worth the cost of the purpose? Live with intention, not prevention. Matthew 16:26 ~ "For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?" Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   I think a lot of us are living to prevent the result of something else, whatever that something else is. <ul> <li>Poverty</li> <li>Homelessness</li> <li>Routines/Schedules</li> <li>Shackled to a desk</li> <li>Living paycheck to paycheck</li> <li>Having a boss</li> <li>Always chasing (going after what you don't have)</li> </ul> When attacking life from the perspective of prevention, you're exchanging your soul for something that you don't want.  Therefore, you might be leaving what you do want on the table, because you can't see what you can't see. Now, this prevention comes from the desire to be profitable.  But at what cost? There is nothing wrong with making money. Money is a gift and can be used for good, just as it can be used for bad. Again, it comes down to the cost. Are you willing to give up everything? And coming from the Christian perspective, your purpose is to glorify God and to know Him. Now, you do have gifts and talents. You have a calling placed on your life. And you can connect that all to an "earthly" purpose if you so desire.  Yet for this discussion, I'm using "purpose" from a biblical meaning. The K.I.S.S. ~ Live with intention, not prevention! I was listening to an interview with Ben Roethlisberger (18 years with Pittsburgh Steelers), and he mentioned how his upbringing was grounded in Jesus Christ. He was raised in the church. But football got in the way of keeping God number one. And he even let his wife slip to number 4 or 5.  As he continued to share, he said that even his father was afraid to talk to him, because his dad didn't think he would pay attention or care. Ben owned this mess he chose to put himself in. He chose profit over his soul. Meanwhile, God was still working on him. And eventually, he had his "coming to Jesus" moment. And now, football was no longer number one. It was more like 4 or 5. Even his marriage suffered. He said after about 5 or 6 years, he wasn't even putting his wife at the top. Their kiddos beat her out. That's wrong!  He had to own the mess he created by putting profit before his purpose. CHALLENGE: What are you giving up in order to gain? Are you ready to lose your family to gain money or fame? Are you ready to lose your faith to gain the fame? Are you ready to lose your sanity to gain your personal freedom? Life is not easy, but there is some common sense that you cannot ignore. "Don't give up your purpose to pursue your profits!" ~ Kristianne Wargo God's got something bigger in store for you. But if you let your own definition of success rule the way, you will never rule your day. You will be held captive to the profits of what destroyed your purpose. Your priority is the pursuit of a relationship that will change your life and impact the world that you touch. Slow down so you can speed up. God wants to give you more than you can imagine. But you have to be willing to let Him. Be patient. Be consistent. Be intentional. PRAYER: May the Lord bless your comings and goings, as you commit to pursuing Him every day! This is your day to experience His blessings.    "Be present. Be incredible.

I find it fascinating that believers will do their best to memorize all the Bible verses, learn the stories, and be able to give references for so many things in the Bible. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>  Yet, when it comes to having a relationship with Jesus Christ, they look at you like you're crazy.  How could you even fathom such a thing? Isn't the laws what it's all about? Yes, that is part of the story.  But what is the risk of only learning the rules? In my humble opinion, you are leaving behind a relationship. And that's what God wants for you. The K.I.S.S. ~To know your Father! So as we celebrate Father's Day, I want you to think about both your heavenly and earthly Father. Now for some, this might not be possible because it's too painful. Then focus on your heavenly Father. Not all fathers are the best. And that's all the more reason to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. Paul talks about this in Romans 9:19-10:4. He lamented this very phenomenon for his Jewish brothers and sisters. Paul saw them trying to ensure that they got the right answer by performing and doing certain tasks under the law. But Paul put it this way, “Refusing to accept God’s way, they cling to their own way of getting right with God by trying to keep the law” (10:3). Paul wanted them to experience a bigger truth. He wanted them all to have a relationship with Christ, the one who created the law (10:4).  We can get so wrapped up in doing what we've been told to do, that we forget to know who we are obeying. To know your father. Our fathers are imperfect, just as we are imperfect, but they hold a special place in our lives. They have provided for us, protected us, and molded us into the people we are today. We owe them our respect and our love, just as we owe God our devotion and our worship. And for those who have been hurt, I encourage you to begin the process of forgiving so you can release yourself from the shackles that hold your heart prisoner. To know your father is to honor him, to recognize the sacrifices he made on your behalf. It is also to recognize our own shortcomings and to seek forgiveness for the times when we fell short as sons and daughters. CHALLENGE: How well do you know your Father? On this Father's Day, take a moment to reflect on your relationship with your father. Have you taken the time to really know him, to listen to his stories, to understand his struggles? Have you sought his guidance and his wisdom? Have you honored him as a father and shown him the love and respect he deserves? Make today a start to a new tradition...to know your heavenly and earthly Father. PRAYER: May each day bring you closer to your heavenly Father, who created you on purpose, to know you and to love you.  Happy Father's Day!   "Be present. Be incredible.

I find it fascinating that believers will do their best to memorize all the Bible verses, learn the stories, and be able to give references for so many things in the Bible. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>  Yet, when it comes to having a relationship with Jesus Christ, they look at you like you're crazy.  How could you even fathom such a thing? Isn't the laws what it's all about? Yes, that is part of the story.  But what is the risk of only learning the rules? In my humble opinion, you are leaving behind a relationship. And that's what God wants for you. The K.I.S.S. ~To know your Father! So as we celebrate Father's Day, I want you to think about both your heavenly and earthly Father. Now for some, this might not be possible because it's too painful. Then focus on your heavenly Father. Not all fathers are the best. And that's all the more reason to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. Paul talks about this in Romans 9:19-10:4. He lamented this very phenomenon for his Jewish brothers and sisters. Paul saw them trying to ensure that they got the right answer by performing and doing certain tasks under the law. But Paul put it this way, “Refusing to accept God’s way, they cling to their own way of getting right with God by trying to keep the law” (10:3). Paul wanted them to experience a bigger truth. He wanted them all to have a relationship with Christ, the one who created the law (10:4).  We can get so wrapped up in doing what we've been told to do, that we forget to know who we are obeying. To know your father. Our fathers are imperfect, just as we are imperfect, but they hold a special place in our lives. They have provided for us, protected us, and molded us into the people we are today. We owe them our respect and our love, just as we owe God our devotion and our worship. And for those who have been hurt, I encourage you to begin the process of forgiving so you can release yourself from the shackles that hold your heart prisoner. To know your father is to honor him, to recognize the sacrifices he made on your behalf. It is also to recognize our own shortcomings and to seek forgiveness for the times when we fell short as sons and daughters. CHALLENGE: How well do you know your Father? On this Father's Day, take a moment to reflect on your relationship with your father. Have you taken the time to really know him, to listen to his stories, to understand his struggles? Have you sought his guidance and his wisdom? Have you honored him as a father and shown him the love and respect he deserves? Make today a start to a new tradition...to know your heavenly and earthly Father. PRAYER: May each day bring you closer to your heavenly Father, who created you on purpose, to know you and to love you.  Happy Father's Day!   "Be present. Be incredible.

You can't see it, but you can feel it. However, marriage can't be built on love alone. You must have a strong foundation that solidifies the love for each other. Love is an intangible feeling that is often described as a force that moves us toward one another. It's the beginning of building a foundation in marriage.

Despite this, we know that love isn't enough to sustain a marriage. Building a lasting and fulfilling marriage is about more than just feeling love. It's about creating a strong foundation and building a relationship worth having.             So build it every day.         The K.I.S.S. ~ Build it every day! Action by action. Thought by thought. Word by word. Build it every day. COMMUNICATION - Communication is essential for any relationship to thrive, but it's particularly important for a marriage. When communication is open and honest, both people feel heard and understood, and this promotes a deeper connection. However, It’s important to keep in mind that communication is a two-way street. Both must be willing to listen and communicate with each other, respectfully and empathetically. TRUST - In a strong marriage, both spouses must trust each other completely, and this trust is built over time. It's earned. It takes effort and hard work to build trust, but it’s essential in any long-term relationship.  Trust is built by being honest, keeping promises, and being reliable. It's all in the follow-through. When trust is present in a marriage, it creates a sense of security that allows both spouses to feel safe and supported, which in turn equates to "feeling loved". RESPECT - Respect means treating your spouse in a way that shows you value them as an individual. In a respectful relationship, both of you should feel valued, appreciated, and loved. Respect is demonstrated by listening to your sweetheart's opinions and feelings, even if you don't agree with them. It means not criticizing or belittling your spouse, and not using hurtful language or actions that diminish your spouse's sense of self-worth. DEDICATION - It’s easy to fall into a routine and take each other for granted, but it's important to remember that a marriage needs regular attention to thrive. You've gotta be dedicated. This means putting effort into your relationship, doing things together, and ensuring that you're both building a life you love. It means dedicating time to communicate and show appreciation for each other. Building a marriage worth having requires more than just feeling love. That magnetic force is great at first, but it requires much presence. It takes communication, trust, respect, and dedication, amongst other things, to make a strong and fulfilling partnership, where "me becomes we". Like the wind, love is intangible, but it can be felt deeply and strongly. By focusing on building a strong foundation and working on the key areas of a successful marriage, you can create a deep, strong, and lasting bond that can withstand the winds of change. PRAYER: May the Lord bless the pillars in your marriage so you can rise above the storms that shake the foundation. Love til the ends of the earth.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But the truth is, being a great dad isn't about being flawless and having all the answers. What dads need is a captured heart. When a father's heart is captured by the love for his children, all the other pieces seem to fall into place. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Father's Day is a special day dedicated to honoring the men who sacrificed so much to care for their children and families. However, it is important to recognize that not every parent is perfect, and not everyone has the best role models to follow when it comes to parenting. As women, we can support our men who are fathers and help them adjust to fatherhood.  Imagine if parents worked together how different our world could be. So what can be done to parent well, even if you didn't have a great role model? The K.I.S.S. ~ Parent well! First, understand that you do not have to be a perfect parent to make a positive impact on your children's lives. Making an effort to support and love your children unconditionally is crucial in their development. Spend quality time with them and show genuine interest in their lives. Listen to them when they talk and validate their feelings. Teach them to be respectful, honest, and responsible. These small actions will go a long way in developing a strong relationship with your child. Secondly, it is always helpful to seek advice from other parents or experts who have been through similar situations. Joining a support group or attending parenting classes can be valuable in learning new skills and meeting other parents who can provide guidance and emotional support. Reading books or listening to podcasts from experienced parents and child psychologists can also be enlightening. Furthermore, it's important to recognize your strengths and weaknesses as a parent. It's okay to admit when you're unsure how to handle a situation or when you need to take a break. Seeking help or advice from a professional can be beneficial to everyone involved. Being an incredible father or parent is not about being perfect but about putting forth an effort to nurture and guide your children. Seek support and advice when needed, accept your limitations, and always show love and understanding towards your children.  Happy Father's Day to all the fathers who are making an effort to support and care for their kids! PRAYER: May God bless your thoughts, words, and actions as you parent your child. May you lead well with a captured heart and unconditional love.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But the truth is, being a great dad isn't about being flawless and having all the answers. What dads need is a captured heart. When a father's heart is captured by the love for his children, all the other pieces seem to fall into place. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Father's Day is a special day dedicated to honoring the men who sacrificed so much to care for their children and families. However, it is important to recognize that not every parent is perfect, and not everyone has the best role models to follow when it comes to parenting. As women, we can support our men who are fathers and help them adjust to fatherhood.  Imagine if parents worked together how different our world could be. So what can be done to parent well, even if you didn't have a great role model? The K.I.S.S. ~ Parent well! First, understand that you do not have to be a perfect parent to make a positive impact on your children's lives. Making an effort to support and love your children unconditionally is crucial in their development. Spend quality time with them and show genuine interest in their lives. Listen to them when they talk and validate their feelings. Teach them to be respectful, honest, and responsible. These small actions will go a long way in developing a strong relationship with your child. Secondly, it is always helpful to seek advice from other parents or experts who have been through similar situations. Joining a support group or attending parenting classes can be valuable in learning new skills and meeting other parents who can provide guidance and emotional support. Reading books or listening to podcasts from experienced parents and child psychologists can also be enlightening. Furthermore, it's important to recognize your strengths and weaknesses as a parent. It's okay to admit when you're unsure how to handle a situation or when you need to take a break. Seeking help or advice from a professional can be beneficial to everyone involved. Being an incredible father or parent is not about being perfect but about putting forth an effort to nurture and guide your children. Seek support and advice when needed, accept your limitations, and always show love and understanding towards your children.  Happy Father's Day to all the fathers who are making an effort to support and care for their kids! PRAYER: May God bless your thoughts, words, and actions as you parent your child. May you lead well with a captured heart and unconditional love.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Would you rather hide out in the house than go to the neighborhood pool? There are some times in life when you are more aware of your health. Don't let that bother you one way or another. The K.I.S.S. ~ Restart and retrain! Because what really matters is YOU!  You are worth the time and energy for yourself. So don't mess around. Let's jump in today. Here are some things to think about that can help you restart and retrain your mind and body. 1. Create a Healthy Living Plan: First, take the time to analyze your current habits and pinpoint what needs to change. Whether it's cutting back on processed foods or incorporating more exercise into your routine, create a healthy living plan that outlines specific goals and an actionable plan. 2. Set Realistic Goals: While it's important to dream big, it's equally important to set realistic goals so that you don't fall into the trap of feeling overwhelmed and giving up. Start with small goals that you can achieve, and then gradually build up to more significant ones. 3. Make Better Choices: Breaking old habits and forming new ones can be challenging, but it's crucial to be mindful of your choices. Choose healthier foods, make time for exercise, and find healthy alternatives to your old habits. 4. Be Accountable: When you have someone to hold you accountable for your actions, it can be easier to stay committed to your healthy living plan. A friend, family member, or a personal trainer can help you stay on track and provide encouragement when you need it most. 5. Celebrate Small Milestones: Celebrating small milestones can help you stay motivated and feel proud of your progress. Whether it's trying a new healthy recipe or hitting a fitness goal, recognizing and celebrating your achievements is essential to a successful restart and retraining of your mind and body. Restart and retrain your mind and body. It's never too late to make healthier choices and form new habits that benefit your health and well-being. But you have to be willing to do what is necessary.

Be careful not to overlook the little things. Details do matter.  How do you look at all the little things in your life? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Are you one who just gets it done with little to no thought? Do you go through the motions just to survive?  Do you obsess over everything because, for whatever reason, nothing seems to matter as much? We can hide behind all the stuff we must do during the day, but still give little conscious thought to what matters. Think about dinner. Why does dinner have to be such a thorn in the day? Yes, we have to make the decision on what to cook or go shopping for the foods we eat. But what if we looked at it from the practical side of being healthy? Do you think that would change your position for a moment as to how you feel about cooking dinner? Now, it may not make it any easier to figure out the recipe to cook and shopping may still be a dreaded feeling you have to work on. Yet, what you cook brings nourishment to your family; it sustains their very life. WOW!!! That's powerful responsibility that blesses you and the family because you do it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Details do matter! I'm traveling right now, hanging out with my sweet daughter and grandson while my son-in-love is at military training for two weeks.  Well, she had this great idea that she wanted to paint her house again. Really, we just painted it about 2 1/2 years ago.  Anyway, she picked the paint based on what she thought would match. Long story short....It didn't match. But for the first hour or so, she did the best she could to convince herself that it was good. She had purchased already 10 gallons. There was no way she could get a different color. Me trying to be the mom that loves, and still uses teachable moments, I suggested she call the paint store and see what the options were to change the color. As you know, I've moved a few many times and painted more walls than I care to admit. So off we loaded up the paint, lifting the 5-gallon buckets together. When we arrived at the store, they did a color match from the size of a penny to match the color.  I drove as fast as I could to get us home to put down the little munchkin and test the paint. My daughter had an appointment, so I stayed back. Now, I could have taken a nap too. But I wanted to see the color. So off I painted as fast I I could roll the brush. I wanted to surprise her. She walked in, and there it was; the perfect match. Details do matter. What you do in your every day counts. Don't take for granted all the little things. You are made for so much more. Yes, you might be a little more tired, and your eyes might need a double washing to wake up. However, don't sell yourself short in the details. Let those details stretch your confidence, improve your focus, or give yourself a "that a girl" silent cheer. Details do matter. God made you with so many sweet and beautiful details. Do not take for granted what matters to God. Create your now!    "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't give up on God. He is faithful, but this question remains– Are you? Stir your faith. One of the reasons most of us stay grounded in negativity is that if we aren't expecting something good, there won't be anything to be disappointed in life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   So let me ask you this. Do you struggle to trust in God's promises, presence, power, and provision in the midst of challenges, circumstances, and celebrations? If so, you're not alone.  But that also means that you should not use it as an excuse to build a wall and claim your territory here on earth your way. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. ~ Hebrews 11:6 Notice that faith is not just a nice accessory for your life, but a crucial component of your relationship with God. The key word is relationship! But then turn the tables. A lot of times, we are harsh on ourselves more so than we are on God. <ul> <li>I can do better at being a mom or dad.</li> <li>I didn't do my best.</li> <li>I should not have spoken those words.</li> </ul> Stop doubting yourself so God can stir your faith. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stir your faith! One thing I believe we harness is that God is an equal. And not in the direct since, but because our earthly minds can't wrap our brains to comprehend any differently. Faith - Walk by faith, not by sight. If you were to take away all your senses, and still believe...that's faith. God can do anything at any point, but we judge based on our time on our points. And I don't think we mean to do this directly that God is an equal. We do it indirectly. But this thought, this idea then becomes what stifles our faith and can eventually extinguish our faith. God deserves better from you and me. If you want to experience that the best is yet to come, you must stir your faith! As a follower of Jesus, you don't have to let your doubts lead your day or define your destiny. Instead, stir your faith by remembering God's character and His promises. He will not let you down. But consider that it's by His standards, not yours. So what you want is not always what you get. Look back on God's faithfulness for you in the past. What do you have to celebrate and be thankful for? When we review God's presence in our lives, our doubts can be radically transformed, drawing us to know Him more. Also, it gives us the opportunity to praise Him for His goodness and power that transcends our circumstances and reminds us that He is not limited by our doubts or fears. Hallelujah! Respond to His invitation to pray and seek His will for you every day.  When you need to stir your faith, you can turn to God in prayer and seek His will, His guidance, and His comfort. You can also ask Him to show you any areas of unbelief or disobedience in your life, and to help you align your heart with His purpose and priorities. PRAYER: May God bless you and keep you, and make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you (Numbers 6:24-26).   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't give up on God. He is faithful, but this question remains– Are you? Stir your faith. One of the reasons most of us stay grounded in negativity is that if we aren't expecting something good, there won't be anything to be disappointed in life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   So let me ask you this. Do you struggle to trust in God's promises, presence, power, and provision in the midst of challenges, circumstances, and celebrations? If so, you're not alone.  But that also means that you should not use it as an excuse to build a wall and claim your territory here on earth your way. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. ~ Hebrews 11:6 Notice that faith is not just a nice accessory for your life, but a crucial component of your relationship with God. The key word is relationship! But then turn the tables. A lot of times, we are harsh on ourselves more so than we are on God. <ul> <li>I can do better at being a mom or dad.</li> <li>I didn't do my best.</li> <li>I should not have spoken those words.</li> </ul> Stop doubting yourself so God can stir your faith. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stir your faith! One thing I believe we harness is that God is an equal. And not in the direct since, but because our earthly minds can't wrap our brains to comprehend any differently. Faith - Walk by faith, not by sight. If you were to take away all your senses, and still believe...that's faith. God can do anything at any point, but we judge based on our time on our points. And I don't think we mean to do this directly that God is an equal. We do it indirectly. But this thought, this idea then becomes what stifles our faith and can eventually extinguish our faith. God deserves better from you and me. If you want to experience that the best is yet to come, you must stir your faith! As a follower of Jesus, you don't have to let your doubts lead your day or define your destiny. Instead, stir your faith by remembering God's character and His promises. He will not let you down. But consider that it's by His standards, not yours. So what you want is not always what you get. Look back on God's faithfulness for you in the past. What do you have to celebrate and be thankful for? When we review God's presence in our lives, our doubts can be radically transformed, drawing us to know Him more. Also, it gives us the opportunity to praise Him for His goodness and power that transcends our circumstances and reminds us that He is not limited by our doubts or fears. Hallelujah! Respond to His invitation to pray and seek His will for you every day.  When you need to stir your faith, you can turn to God in prayer and seek His will, His guidance, and His comfort. You can also ask Him to show you any areas of unbelief or disobedience in your life, and to help you align your heart with His purpose and priorities. PRAYER: May God bless you and keep you, and make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you (Numbers 6:24-26).   "Be present. Be incredible.

But don't be afraid to love and to change. You can be better than you were yesterday. Perfection shows up in a variety of ways. But when it shows up in marriage, it can become a destructive catalyst that leads to destroying two stories that were once beautiful together. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   How do you first see your spouse when you said, "I do"? I'm not asking about why you fell in love with your man or your woman; I asked what did you first see?  <br />- Smile <br />- Eyes <br />- Kindness <br />- Honesty <br />- Optimism <br /> You see, it's interesting that when you date, all you can see is the good. Yet after a beautiful, expensive ceremony, all of a sudden, all you see are the faults, where they don't get it right, even when words and actions don't add up. So then you move into the idea that you can fix them. You got this. Nobody needs to worry about the mess you're in. You're gonna fix everything. All of sudden, you are playing a magician trying to sprinkle pixie dust on where your spouse falls short with the hope that you can perfect them. Oh, but wait– The promises you made when you said "I do" are not all out the window, tossed aside for no one to remember. All you know-- YOU ARE RIGHT!!  No one can tell you differently. No one can convince you that something else is happening. But I'm here to tell you– Welcome to the circle of marriage. However, it doesn't have to stay this way. You don't have to be afraid to love and to change. You can grow together and be better together. But first, it takes you to see what your spouse sees. The K.I.S.S. ~ What does your reflection portray? If you can't get real with yourself, you will never be able to be real with your spouse. And that is unfortunate. Because if you can't overcome yourself, you won't be able to overcome together. You must do the unthinkable and really dig deep into the dusty wounds that have settled for decades. And that diggin' hurts. But if you aren't willing to clean it up and dig out the stuff that is continuously feeding the infectious bacteria in your wounds, it will never turn into a scar. You won't be able to own your CRAP, forgive yourself, and then forgive your spouse so you can build better together. However, something tells me that you don't want to quit where you sit. You want to build better together. You want to walk the long, winding road of healing so you can get to the other side. Are you ready to see what you don't see now?  <br />- Be honest about who you are; the good, the bad, and the ugly. It might hurt your ego a little bit or even a lot. But it will be worth the glass you walk on. Every sliver will heal once you know who you see. <br />- Be better today than yesterday. You don't have to be perfect. But you do need to improve. Go back to the first meal you ever fixed. Maybe you burned the box of mac n cheese, or it was a little extra runny. If you could focus on one thing at a time and commit to being better today, then what you went through yesterday will be worth it when you look back tomorrow. <br />- Forgive as quickly as you remember. When you can make room in your heart to see your failures as lessons learned, or stumbling blocks to improve on, you can get beyond the attraction of perfection. And it's then, that you can proclaim that you will build better together. <br /> Don't be afraid to love and to change. CHALLENGE: Where are you struggling with yourself? Really look at yourself. And don't get all weepy, or if you need to, take this into the shower. Seriously! There's something about the water pouring over you that creates this atmosphere of reconciliation. You've got to break down the barriers.  So what is it for you? What can you give to God and ask Him for help? What can you change by the tone of your voice, the quick backlash of your tongue, or the towering ego that you're always right? I want you to experience the incredible love God intended for marriage. But you have to look at yourself first.  Marriage is the most rewarding covenant between two people that will take more work than two lifetimes. But don't be afraid to love and to change. You can be better than you were yesterday. PRAYER: May your reflection become a light in the darkness as you uncover and release that which holds you hostage.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's summertime, and that means it's time to engage and entertain your children your way. So turn off the alarm clock and get ready to make memories. I absolutely LOVE summer. Probably, first because of the warmer weather. But then I get to have the kiddos home.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, as parents, it can be challenging to keep your kids engaged and entertained throughout the summer months. Now, I'm really grateful that I had my children during a different time. We didn't have as many electronics to get in the way. Gaming was just up and coming. And cell phones didn't become that awesome until about our third child was in high school. So there was still hope for us surviving without the distractions and all. Regardless of what you have in your home, there is hope that you can have a wonderful summer and not let your kids become jello. Don't fret about resorting to electronics or having your children spend too much time doing nothing. There are a few things you can do to not only keep your kids entertained but also to teach them valuable life skills. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get ready to make memories! Here are some tips that can help you raise your kids and have fun during the summer months: 1. Create a Daily Schedule: Though summer break is a time for kids to unwind and relax, it’s still essential to have a structure in place. Create a daily schedule that includes time for fun activities as well as educational ones. Set aside time for reading, writing, and math, but also give kids enough time to play games and spend time outdoors. 2. Encourage Outdoor Activities: Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors. Encourage kids to spend time outside by organizing exciting activities such as scavenger hunts, picnics, bike rides, and nature walks. These activities will not only keep kids physically active, but they’ll also learn about nature and improve their observation skills. 3. Teach Life Skills: You can use the summer break to teach kids valuable life skills such as cooking, basic home maintenance, and gardening. This will not only help them become more independent, but it’ll also introduce them to new hobbies and interests. These skills will prove valuable throughout their lives. 4. Take Day Trips: Summer is the ideal time to go on day trips to local museums, parks, and cultural sites. These trips are both educational and fun, giving kids something to look forward to while also learning more about their local area. You can also take them to nearby cities which can teach them about different cultures, music, and food. 5. Organize Fun Indoor Activities: There will be days when it’s too hot or rainy to spend time outdoors. Make sure you have a few fun indoor activities planned in advance, such as board games, card games, puzzles, arts and crafts, and STEM projects. These activities will help kids develop their creativity and problem-solving skills. Summer is a beautiful season of opportunity for parents to teach valuable life skills to their kids while also having fun. By creating a daily schedule, encouraging outdoor activities, teaching life skills, taking day trips, and organizing fun indoor activities, you can ensure that your kids have an enjoyable summer break while also learning new things. PRAYER: May your enthusiasm for summer be life-giving for your children. See God's beauty in the moments as you create your now.    "Be present. Be incredible.

It's summertime, and that means it's time to engage and entertain your children your way. So turn off the alarm clock and get ready to make memories. I absolutely LOVE summer. Probably, first because of the warmer weather. But then I get to have the kiddos home.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, as parents, it can be challenging to keep your kids engaged and entertained throughout the summer months. Now, I'm really grateful that I had my children during a different time. We didn't have as many electronics to get in the way. Gaming was just up and coming. And cell phones didn't become that awesome until about our third child was in high school. So there was still hope for us surviving without the distractions and all. Regardless of what you have in your home, there is hope that you can have a wonderful summer and not let your kids become jello. Don't fret about resorting to electronics or having your children spend too much time doing nothing. There are a few things you can do to not only keep your kids entertained but also to teach them valuable life skills. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get ready to make memories! Here are some tips that can help you raise your kids and have fun during the summer months: 1. Create a Daily Schedule: Though summer break is a time for kids to unwind and relax, it’s still essential to have a structure in place. Create a daily schedule that includes time for fun activities as well as educational ones. Set aside time for reading, writing, and math, but also give kids enough time to play games and spend time outdoors. 2. Encourage Outdoor Activities: Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors. Encourage kids to spend time outside by organizing exciting activities such as scavenger hunts, picnics, bike rides, and nature walks. These activities will not only keep kids physically active, but they’ll also learn about nature and improve their observation skills. 3. Teach Life Skills: You can use the summer break to teach kids valuable life skills such as cooking, basic home maintenance, and gardening. This will not only help them become more independent, but it’ll also introduce them to new hobbies and interests. These skills will prove valuable throughout their lives. 4. Take Day Trips: Summer is the ideal time to go on day trips to local museums, parks, and cultural sites. These trips are both educational and fun, giving kids something to look forward to while also learning more about their local area. You can also take them to nearby cities which can teach them about different cultures, music, and food. 5. Organize Fun Indoor Activities: There will be days when it’s too hot or rainy to spend time outdoors. Make sure you have a few fun indoor activities planned in advance, such as board games, card games, puzzles, arts and crafts, and STEM projects. These activities will help kids develop their creativity and problem-solving skills. Summer is a beautiful season of opportunity for parents to teach valuable life skills to their kids while also having fun. By creating a daily schedule, encouraging outdoor activities, teaching life skills, taking day trips, and organizing fun indoor activities, you can ensure that your kids have an enjoyable summer break while also learning new things. PRAYER: May your enthusiasm for summer be life-giving for your children. See God's beauty in the moments as you create your now.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Between Franklin trainings, digital calendars, and daily reminders, there's really no excuse for missing anything. Don't leave behind what matters; waste nothing. We can get so wrapped up in all the activities, providing for the family, and keeping the dinner, dishes, and dogs in check, that we lose sight of the priority that God has on our life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Her name was Keridon McMahon. I learned of her online and got to know who she was that way, and then we connected, which eventually led us to a podcast interview. Unfortunately, her life ended too soon, two years ago.  I'm not one who spends a lot of time on Facebook or social media. You know where to find me, here on the podcast or on the TV Show with Pray.com. But for some reason, I took an extra moment to pause and do a brief three-scroll shuffle. And there was one of Keridon's best friends posting a remembrance about her.  I stopped to read the post, and she told her story about how she wasted nothing. "She made the most of every 24 hours and absolutely did not take her time on earth for granted. She loved hard, and did exactly what she was put on earth to do, wasting nothing." The K.I.S.S. ~ Waste nothing! It grabbed me in the moment! I had the honor to be a part of Keridon's story in a special way. I had no idea that the story she would tell, would then be her legacy. No one wants to talk about what happens when you're not here. But today, I want you to look at your life differently, the way Keridon did. You see, she didn't wait for her life to become a legacy. She was a living legacy. Keridon did what mattered most and wasted nothing. And I want to encourage you to go back and listen to her episode.

Yea– That was a long time ago. My friend, we need to wake up and smell the coffee so we can stop and smell the roses. Life is too short. Are you doing what you have been called to do? Are you living the life that God wants you to? "Excellence is not built on achievements that sit on a shelf. Excellence is created in the hearts you touch." ~ Kristianne Wargo Keridon lived out that life daily. “Living well doesn’t happen by accident. It happens by design.” ~ Keridon McMahon Waste nothing. CHALLENGE: Where is your focus? Are you focusing on the things that are more superficial? Are you hindering your own calling with dramatized excuses? Are you playing to the patterns of this world? And as you answer these questions, be specific about where your focus is. If you change your patterns, you change the world you touch. Live by God's design. Waste nothing. PRAYER: Philippians 4:13 ~ "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." You don't have to be fearful of what tomorrow brings. God has already gone before you and prepared a place.

Most of the time, the rut is our guide, and we just go with it. Today it stops! Just tell the truth. Whether it's losing weight, gaining muscle, or living healthier, we often find ourselves searching for easy solutions that promise to help us reach our objectives quickly and with minimal effort.  Unfortunately, the truth is that there are no shortcuts to a healthy life. The only way to truly achieve your goals and become your best selfie is to just tell the truth about where you are and why you struggle. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The journey to becoming healthy is not an easy one. It requires discipline, hard work, and a willingness to confront the uncomfortable truth about ourselves. We often tell ourselves stories and make excuses to avoid the pain of facing our own shortcomings. We may justify our unhealthy habits by telling ourselves that we're too busy, too tired, or that we simply don't have what it takes to change. But the reality is that the only way to break free from our unhealthy patterns is to just tell the truth about why we're struggling. We have to be honest with ourselves about the obstacles that are standing in our way and the negative behaviors that are hindering our progress. It may not be fun to admit that we're addicted to junk food, that we skip workouts, or that we don't get enough sleep, but until we confront these truths, we can't make meaningful changes. The K.I.S.S. ~ Just tell the truth! Here are some specific ways you can just tell the truth about your habits and the changes you need to make in order to achieve your goals: 1. Track your habits: Start by tracking your habits for a week or two. Write down everything you eat, drink, and do each day. This will give you a clear picture of your patterns and help you identify areas where you need to make changes. 2. Identify your pain points: Take a close look at your tracking data and identify your pain points. What habits are holding you back from achieving your goals? What unhealthy behaviors do you need to address? Be honest with yourself about what needs to change. 3. Create a list of benefits: Write down the benefits of achieving your goals. How will your life be better when you're living a healthier lifestyle? This list can serve as a reminder of why you're making changes and help motivate you when you feel discouraged. 4. Create an avatar of your ideal self: Create a detailed avatar of the person you want to be. Include traits, habits, and behaviors that align with your goals. Use this avatar as a guide to help you stay on track and make choices that align with your vision. 5. Set realistic goals: Set realistic goals that align with your avatar. Be specific and create a plan of action for achieving those goals. This plan should include specific steps you need to take and a timeline for when you want to achieve each goal. 6. Hold yourself accountable: Finally, hold yourself accountable for your actions. Check in with your progress regularly and make adjustments as necessary. Celebrate your successes and learn from your mistakes. Remember, telling the truth is not always easy, but it is necessary for achieving lasting change. So, instead of looking for an easy fix or a magic solution, you need to start by telling the truth about your unhealthy habits and why you struggle to overcome them. When you're honest with yourself, you begin to open the doors to new possibilities and can move forward with clarity. Telling the truth is powerful because it allows you to replace your damaging lies with constructive solutions. Only then can you begin to create the real, sustained change that you need to become your best selfie. The journey to a healthy life is not an easy one, but it is possible. Stop looking for an easy way out. Instead, just tell the truth about your unhealthy habits and the reasons why you struggle. When you're honest with yourself, you can start to make real, meaningful changes that will help you achieve your goals and become the best version of yourself. Don't be afraid to confront the truth - it may make you mad at first, but it will ultimately set you free.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Most of the time, the rut is our guide, and we just go with it. Today it stops! Just tell the truth. Whether it's losing weight, gaining muscle, or living healthier, we often find ourselves searching for easy solutions that promise to help us reach our objectives quickly and with minimal effort.  Unfortunately, the truth is that there are no shortcuts to a healthy life. The only way to truly achieve your goals and become your best selfie is to just tell the truth about where you are and why you struggle. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The journey to becoming healthy is not an easy one. It requires discipline, hard work, and a willingness to confront the uncomfortable truth about ourselves. We often tell ourselves stories and make excuses to avoid the pain of facing our own shortcomings. We may justify our unhealthy habits by telling ourselves that we're too busy, too tired, or that we simply don't have what it takes to change. But the reality is that the only way to break free from our unhealthy patterns is to just tell the truth about why we're struggling. We have to be honest with ourselves about the obstacles that are standing in our way and the negative behaviors that are hindering our progress. It may not be fun to admit that we're addicted to junk food, that we skip workouts, or that we don't get enough sleep, but until we confront these truths, we can't make meaningful changes. The K.I.S.S. ~ Just tell the truth! Here are some specific ways you can just tell the truth about your habits and the changes you need to make in order to achieve your goals: 1. Track your habits: Start by tracking your habits for a week or two. Write down everything you eat, drink, and do each day. This will give you a clear picture of your patterns and help you identify areas where you need to make changes. 2. Identify your pain points: Take a close look at your tracking data and identify your pain points. What habits are holding you back from achieving your goals? What unhealthy behaviors do you need to address? Be honest with yourself about what needs to change. 3. Create a list of benefits: Write down the benefits of achieving your goals. How will your life be better when you're living a healthier lifestyle? This list can serve as a reminder of why you're making changes and help motivate you when you feel discouraged. 4. Create an avatar of your ideal self: Create a detailed avatar of the person you want to be. Include traits, habits, and behaviors that align with your goals. Use this avatar as a guide to help you stay on track and make choices that align with your vision. 5. Set realistic goals: Set realistic goals that align with your avatar. Be specific and create a plan of action for achieving those goals. This plan should include specific steps you need to take and a timeline for when you want to achieve each goal. 6.

You know more than you realize. Build your confidence in your strengths, and your weaknesses will follow. It's so easy to convince yourself that you don't know anything.

So why are you doing it? Much of our time is spent holding ourselves hostage to what we can't do that we honestly forget what we do well. Don't be fooled! What if, for a moment, you could envision yourself achieving your dreams, reaching your goals, and doing what you know you're capable of? How would you feel? How much taller would you stand? Doing is not always fun, because doing takes work. Oftentimes, the lazy way is more satisfying short-term, yet we sacrifice what we really want for the long-term. So go back to how you would feel.

And if you need to, stretch it out to the past few weeks. But I want you to be honest. You can't get ahead of where you are today if you're first not honest with yourself. Now, I completely understand that circumstances can dictate what you are able to create. But that doesn't me you can't create your now. Don't be fooled! You can reach for the stars.

Stop just going through the motions and commit to the art of the moment.  Because if you don't, you forget the magic that life has to offer. We can go through the motions without really being present, quickly forgetting what just happened. But what if we were to lean in, being fully present in each moment?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   What if the key to living a life of impact was simply the skill of presence, the art of the moment? Presence is a valuable skill that can benefit not only the mind and spirit, but also the body. Psalm 118:24 “This is the day that the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Matthew 6:25-34 “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." These verses emphasize the importance of being present, living in the moment, and trusting in God’s providence. Life is too short, but it's also precious.  "What you see every day, needs to be experienced in every way. This is what defines the art of the moment." ~ Kristianne Wargo If you are going to do all that God has planned for you... <ul> <li>You have to be willing to take risks.</li> <li>You have to be willing to persevere when you are exhausted.</li> <li>You have to be willing to expand your heart for what's to come.</li> </ul> The art of the moment is not about what you remember it to be, but experiencing it in a way that moves the needle for all hearts to see. However, it does not come easy. It's a skill that needs to be learned and refined. And one way to do this is through the power of iteration. The K.I.S.S. ~ Use the power of iteration! Now you might be questioning what I mean by iteration. Iteration refers to the process of repeating a task or action, with the explicit goal of improving and mastering it over time. By practicing presence in small moments throughout the day, such as sitting in traffic or enjoying a bite to eat, you can slowly become more aware of your surroundings and connect with the present moment. That's the art of the moment. When you understand presence and it's power, you'll understand the profound impacts it can have on the mind, decreasing stress levels and increasing focus and clarity. It can boost the body, as it allows you to be more aware of physical sensations and to be mindful of the food and drink you consume. And it can nourish the spirit, helping you to connect with God and find joy and peace in the moments. Being present in the moment takes practice, but the benefits are immeasurable. By cultivating presence, we can begin to live a more impactful and fulfilling life, one that is fully connected to the world around us and for those we encounter on our journey. Every moment is a gift — let us enjoy them fully. CHALLENGE: Where do you fall on the presence scale?  Think of a number between 1 and 5, with 5 being so focused and intuned that you would burn through the floor if you were anything more. Ultimately, living a life of presence is an art form worth mastering. With each small moment, you have the opportunity to truly connect with your surroundings and impact the world that you touch. Embrace the art and use the power of iteration to continually improve your skills and become more present every day. Nothing is impossible when you fully commit to the art of the moment. PRAYER: May your tomorrow be filled with the sweet fragrance of your presence today. Continue living out your calling, and may each step that you take draw you closer to His purpose.   "Be present.

It's a common sentiment, and one that can leave us feeling anxious, uncertain, and helpless. But rest assured, God has a plan, and it is good. As Christians, we can find peace in the promise of Jeremiah 29:11. "For I know the plans I have for you", declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". This verse is your assurance that God has a plan, and it is good. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   So why do we question God's plans? In moments of uncertainty, it's easy to let fear and doubt take over. You may be facing difficult circumstances or disappointments that make you question whether God truly has a plan for you. However, you must remember that God's ways are higher than your ways, and His thoughts are higher than yours (Isaiah 55:8-9). Instead of fearing the unknown, trust in our all-knowing God. Because when you trust in God, you acknowledge that your life is in His hands, and you have nothing to fear. This trust allows you to surrender your own plans and desires and to submit obediently to His will. The K.I.S.S. ~ It is good! As Romans 8:28 reminds us, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose". Trusting in God's plans can be difficult, especially when things don't go the way you expect. Yet, you must remember that God sees the bigger picture, and what seems like a setback to you may be a crucial step in His overall plan for your life. Just because you may not understand God's plan does not mean that it's not good. Continue to trust in Him and His promises. So I employ you today to hold onto the promise of Jeremiah 29:11, knowing that God has a plan for your life. Trust in His plans, even when the path forward seems unclear. His plan may not always be the easiest or most comfortable, but it is always good. Remember, nothing is impossible with God. PRAYER: Let your heart whisper through your day that "nothing is impossible," and "it is good."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

It's a common sentiment, and one that can leave us feeling anxious, uncertain, and helpless. But rest assured, God has a plan, and it is good. As Christians, we can find peace in the promise of Jeremiah 29:11. "For I know the plans I have for you", declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". This verse is your assurance that God has a plan, and it is good. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   So why do we question God's plans? In moments of uncertainty, it's easy to let fear and doubt take over. You may be facing difficult circumstances or disappointments that make you question whether God truly has a plan for you. However, you must remember that God's ways are higher than your ways, and His thoughts are higher than yours (Isaiah 55:8-9). Instead of fearing the unknown, trust in our all-knowing God. Because when you trust in God, you acknowledge that your life is in His hands, and you have nothing to fear. This trust allows you to surrender your own plans and desires and to submit obediently to His will. The K.I.S.S. ~ It is good! As Romans 8:28 reminds us, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose". Trusting in God's plans can be difficult, especially when things don't go the way you expect. Yet, you must remember that God sees the bigger picture, and what seems like a setback to you may be a crucial step in His overall plan for your life. Just because you may not understand God's plan does not mean that it's not good. Continue to trust in Him and His promises. So I employ you today to hold onto the promise of Jeremiah 29:11, knowing that God has a plan for your life. Trust in His plans, even when the path forward seems unclear. His plan may not always be the easiest or most comfortable, but it is always good. Remember, nothing is impossible with God. PRAYER: Let your heart whisper through your day that "nothing is impossible," and "it is good."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

How can you move forward and forgive if all you choose to see is what happened to you? Risk forward. Brighter days do exist beyond the pain. You don't have to let love fade, but commit to risk forward what matters in your marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Marriage is not always easy, and there may be times when it feels like the two of you are just going through the motions. Often, we spend a lot of time looking back at past mistakes and dwelling on them, instead of looking forward and moving on. But, if we continue looking in the rearview mirror, we miss out on the present moment and the potential that lies ahead. Remember, love doesn't fade overnight, but we can grow apart if we forget to do our part in nurturing our relationships. However, it’s never too late to start moving forward – risk forward and seize the moment that comes your way.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Risk forward! Because if you don't, who will? No one!! Including your spouse. You can't wait for both of you to be on the same page. That's why you're in the predicament you're in. Be bold, not because you have the answers, but because you want to face your fear. If you are willing to do what seems impossible, that's when the doors of opportunities open. Now, I'm not saying this will "fix" your marriage. But it will begin to push you forward. 1. Be present in the moment. Stop looking back and start living in the present. True happiness comes from living in the moment and appreciating the now. This means making a conscious effort to be present when you're spending time with your partner, allowing the past to simply fade away. 2. Heal intentionally. If there are deep wounds in your marriage, it's important to take the time to heal with your partner. This can involve seeking therapy or counseling, or simply allowing yourselves the time you need to talk things out and process your feelings. 3. Focus on the positive. Instead of dwelling on the negative aspects of your relationship, try to focus on the positive things that brought you together in the first place. Write a list of the things you love about your partner and make an effort to express your gratitude for them regularly. 4. Risk more. Sometimes, taking a risk can be scary, but it can also be incredibly rewarding. This could mean planning a spontaneous date or trying something new, like a hobby or activity you've always wanted to try. 5. Communicate openly. Communication is key in any relationship, and it's especially important when you're trying to move forward from the past. Be honest with your partner about your feelings and encourage them to do the same. This will help you to create a stronger, more transparent bond. You can start to move past the rearview mirror and risk forward in your marriage. Remember, love is not just a feeling – it's a verb; and that verb requires action. So, take action today to invest in your relationship and create a brighter future together. PRAYER: May your past become a shadow of your present that you are willing to look in the face and move to another spot to find a bright silhouette. You shine brighter the more you reveal in the light. No more darkness in your marriage.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Your children are your constant companions and mirrors, reflecting your every action, good and bad. Be the shadow you want to see. So instead of lamenting over their chaotic and mischievous nature, why not take the reins and propel them toward greatness? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Parenting is one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences one can go through. By employing the right methods, you can parent your child and nurture them into their best selves. One of the most crucial aspects of parenting is training up your shadow, aka your child, to become their best selfie. Children learn best by example, and as a parent, you are always being watched. Your attitudes, behaviors, and decisions have a profound impact on your little ones. Ready yourself to model the traits and behaviors you want to be repeated. The K.I.S.S. ~ Model the traits and behaviors you want to be repeated! So, what can you do to ensure that you're modeling the traits and behaviors that you want to see in your children? Here are a few tips: 1. Lead by Example It's often said that actions speak louder than words, and that couldn't be truer when it comes to parenting. If you want your children to be kind, honest, and respectful, then you need to model those behaviors yourself. Think about the kind of person you want your child to become, and then live those qualities out in your own life. 2. Encourage Individuality Your child is their own person, with their own thoughts, feelings, and interests. Encourage them to explore their passions and discover what makes them unique. Celebrate their successes and help them navigate their failures. Building self-confidence and a sense of agency in your child will help them become more independent and self-assured. 3. Create Goals Together Setting goals together is a great way to teach your child the importance of hard work, commitment, and perseverance. Encourage your child to come up with goals that align with their passions and interests, and then help them create a plan of action to achieve those goals. 4. Practice Active Listening Listening to your child is essential to understanding their needs, wants, and concerns. Practice active listening by giving your child your undivided attention when they talk to you. Ask follow-up questions, summarize what they've said, and validate their feelings. 5. Celebrate Achievements &amp; Failures When your child achieves something, no matter how small, celebrate their success together. Positive reinforcement is a powerful motivator and reinforces the idea that hard work and dedication pay off. Parenting can be chaotic, challenging, and rewarding all at the same time. By training up your shadow to become their best selfie, you can help your child become a confident, capable, and compassionate person. Remember, you are their role model, and the behaviors you model today will shape their future. Let's make it a bright one! Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. ~ Proverbs 22:6 PRAYER: Even though the days are long and the nights are short, may your patience, love, and compassion be what is seen first as you raise your child. The hard work today is a beautiful future for your child.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Your children are your constant companions and mirrors, reflecting your every action, good and bad. Be the shadow you want to see. So instead of lamenting over their chaotic and mischievous nature, why not take the reins and propel them toward greatness? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Parenting is one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences one can go through. By employing the right methods, you can parent your child and nurture them into their best selves. One of the most crucial aspects of parenting is training up your shadow, aka your child, to become their best selfie. Children learn best by example, and as a parent, you are always being watched. Your attitudes, behaviors, and decisions have a profound impact on your little ones. Ready yourself to model the traits and behaviors you want to be repeated. The K.I.S.S. ~ Model the traits and behaviors you want to be repeated! So, what can you do to ensure that you're modeling the traits and behaviors that you want to see in your children? Here are a few tips: 1. Lead by Example It's often said that actions speak louder than words, and that couldn't be truer when it comes to parenting. If you want your children to be kind, honest, and respectful, then you need to model those behaviors yourself. Think about the kind of person you want your child to become, and then live those qualities out in your own life. 2. Encourage Individuality Your child is their own person, with their own thoughts, feelings, and interests. Encourage them to explore their passions and discover what makes them unique. Celebrate their successes and help them navigate their failures. Building self-confidence and a sense of agency in your child will help them become more independent and self-assured. 3. Create Goals Together Setting goals together is a great way to teach your child the importance of hard work, commitment, and perseverance. Encourage your child to come up with goals that align with their passions and interests, and then help them create a plan of action to achieve those goals. 4. Practice Active Listening Listening to your child is essential to understanding their needs, wants, and concerns. Practice active listening by giving your child your undivided attention when they talk to you. Ask follow-up questions, summarize what they've said, and validate their feelings. 5. Celebrate Achievements &amp; Failures When your child achieves something, no matter how small, celebrate their success together. Positive reinforcement is a powerful motivator and reinforces the idea that hard work and dedication pay off. Parenting can be chaotic, challenging, and rewarding all at the same time. By training up your shadow to become their best selfie, you can help your child become a confident, capable, and compassionate person. Remember, you are their role model, and the behaviors you model today will shape their future. Let's make it a bright one! Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. ~ Proverbs 22:6 PRAYER: Even though the days are long and the nights are short, may your patience, love, and compassion be what is seen first as you raise your child. The hard work today is a beautiful future for your child.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Separate yourself from those who run and reach for what's yours to claim. Stand up when called. When you don't stand up when called, the fear paralyzes you and holds you back from living out your dreams. Because we all have dreams and aspirations that we hope to achieve in our lifetime. However, the road to success is not always an easy one. There are often challenges and obstacles that we must face in order to make our goals a reality.

It means being ready and willing to fight for what you believe in or for what you are going after. It means having the courage to take action and push through your fears, even when it feels uncomfortable or uncertain. Think about some of the most successful people you know or admire. They didn't get to where they are by sitting back and waiting for things to magically happen. They took bold actions, persevered through setbacks, and believed in themselves and their abilities. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stand up when called! The truth is, we all have what it takes to be a game changer in this world. We all have unique gifts and talents that can make a positive impact on others. But, if we allow fear to hold us back, we are not only doing ourselves a disservice but also those who could benefit from our contributions. If you hear the call to action, don't hesitate to stand up and take charge. Encourage those who feel like they are not enough, even though they are more than enough right where they stand. Believe in yourself, your abilities, and your potential to make a difference in this world. As you stand up when called, it requires courage, determination, and belief in yourself. Meanwhile, by pushing through your fears and taking action, you can achieve greatness and make a positive impact on the world you touch.

Embarking on a fitness journey can be both exhilarating and daunting. No matter where you are in the journey, you get to look and feel good! It’s essential to remember that feeling good in your own body is a mindset. A positive mental attitude gives you the strength to overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   May is mental health awareness month. And whether we want to admit it, very rarely are we looking at our own mental health when it comes to body image. We can get so locked into what the world says who we need to look like, that we forget what we look like.  Don't let altered and touch-up photography become your body standard. You deserve to be treated with kindness and compassion.  As you begin the process of transforming your body, keep in mind that it’s important to stay committed to your goals, even when things get tough. Getting the body you want takes work and is worth it in the end. Don't give up! "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle." - Christian D. Larson The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep moving forward. Keep the fight! Here are some tips to keep moving forward and stay out of your own way as you work toward your best self: 1. Set realistic goals Begin by setting achievable goals. If you expect to see dramatic results overnight, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Keeping your expectations in check and being patient with the process is crucial. 2. Celebrate your progress Don’t forget to celebrate your progress, no matter how small. Every step towards your goal is worth celebrating and will keep you motivated to keep going. 3. Track your progress Tracking your progress is vital. Documenting your progress can give you insight into areas you need to improve. It’s also essential to remember that your progress might not always be visible on the scale. You could be building muscle, which would not show a significant change in weight. 4. Get the support you need Surrounding yourself with supportive and encouraging individuals will help keep you motivated. Find a workout buddy with similar goals, share your progress on social media, or join a fitness group in your local community. 5. Prioritize self-care Self-care is essential.

Embarking on a fitness journey can be both exhilarating and daunting. No matter where you are in the journey, you get to look and feel good! It’s essential to remember that feeling good in your own body is a mindset. A positive mental attitude gives you the strength to overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   May is mental health awareness month. And whether we want to admit it, very rarely are we looking at our own mental health when it comes to body image. We can get so locked into what the world says who we need to look like, that we forget what we look like.  Don't let altered and touch-up photography become your body standard. You deserve to be treated with kindness and compassion.  As you begin the process of transforming your body, keep in mind that it’s important to stay committed to your goals, even when things get tough. Getting the body you want takes work and is worth it in the end. Don't give up! "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle." - Christian D. Larson The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep moving forward. Keep the fight! Here are some tips to keep moving forward and stay out of your own way as you work toward your best self: 1. Set realistic goals Begin by setting achievable goals. If you expect to see dramatic results overnight, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Keeping your expectations in check and being patient with the process is crucial. 2. Celebrate your progress Don’t forget to celebrate your progress, no matter how small. Every step towards your goal is worth celebrating and will keep you motivated to keep going. 3. Track your progress Tracking your progress is vital. Documenting your progress can give you insight into areas you need to improve. It’s also essential to remember that your progress might not always be visible on the scale. You could be building muscle, which would not show a significant change in weight. 4. Get the support you need Surrounding yourself with supportive and encouraging individuals will help keep you motivated. Find a workout buddy with similar goals, share your progress on social media, or join a fitness group in your local community. 5. Prioritize self-care Self-care is essential. Be gentle with yourself on your journey. Allow yourself to take rest days and pamper yourself with relaxation techniques. Also, don't forget your R&amp;R; reading and redirection. Sometimes a detour can be the best turn you will take. Remember, there will be bumps on the road in your journey to transformation, and it's inevitable. The key is to stay consistent, stay committed, and keep fighting for your goals. Own your choices or someone else will.

Victory in anything requires determination and perseverance. On this Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women who fought for our freedom and sacrificed their lives in battle. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Their courage, commitment, and sacrifice served a greater purpose for the plan of liberty and freedom. However, each of those should also serve as an inspiration, not just on this day, but every day of our lives. There is so much we can learn from their example that inspires us to do the same in our everyday lives. Many who sacrificed it all knew the cost from the beginning. Yet, they still pursued the plan. They went in, knowing they might not come back. So today, pause for the cause, not for bbq, burgers, and baseball in the backyard, but for the lives changed, especially yours. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pause for the cause! First, be willing to take a stand. Just like those who fought for our country, we must be ready to stand up for what we believe in and fight for our dreams and goals. We must be willing to stand our ground and not give up, no matter how difficult the situation may be. But in doing so, we must also do it with the highest morals and values. It's not just about getting things your way. It's always about the greater good. Our men and women who gave their lives and sacrificed their dreams for ours had no selfishness on the battlefield, and it was about the bigger picture of America. Secondly, be courageous to face adversity. The Bible tells us in Joshua 1:9, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the willingness to persevere despite our fears. We should emulate those who fought bravely for our country and face our fears head-on with strength and courage. Lastly, understand the greater purpose. The men and women who fought for our freedom had clarity and knew the greater purpose. They knew what they were fighting for. The same goes for us. We should understand the greater purpose, so the plan includes our calling, which gives us direction and motivates us to keep going. When you lose sight of the greater purpose, you will easily be tossed around by the demands and patterns of this world. CHALLENGE: Where can you find victory on your battlefield? Are you one who needs to focus more on where God has you and your calling? Are you needing to stand up more for what's right, for the greater good? Are you needing to face fear and be courageous in your comings and goings? May this Memorial Day be a reminder that nothing is impossible. You are living the American dream because of the men and women who believed before you experienced freedom. They were willing to sacrifice everything, you could live out your dreams. I have a dream that one day... What is that dream for you? As you take in the sights of your family, the beach, the pool, or even a little traffic and clean-up from the party, may this day inspire you to live your life with the same courage, determination, and sense of purpose. So let us honor their memory and the families left behind, by striving to be the best version of ourselves, standing up for what we believe in, facing our fears with courage, and having a clear sense of purpose in our lives. As John F. Kennedy once said, "Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty."

This is a cry for comfort and assurance in the midst of uncertainty. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   As a believer, you often face situations of doubt and unease, wondering whether God hears your prayers and will fulfill his promises to you.  This Psalms acknowledges these feelings; however, it also reminds us of the hope we have in the Lord.  It urges us not to give up or lose faith, but to continue to seek God's promises through prayer and reading his word. The K.I.S.S. ~ When will you comfort me? So, what can you do when you feel like you are straining to see God's promises fulfilled? First, hold onto His promises despite your doubts. God's promises are always true and will come to fruition in His timing. You must trust that God has a plan for your life and that His timing is perfect. Second, seek comfort in God's word. The Bible is full of promises and stories of God's faithfulness to His people. Reading and meditating on scripture can bring peace and comfort in the midst of uncertainty. Third, pray and ask God for guidance and comfort. You can tell Him about your doubts and ask Him to strengthen your faith. Prayer is a powerful way to connect with God and seek His direction in our lives. Think of it as a redline to God. Lastly, seek support from your faith community. Talking to fellow believers about our doubts and fears can provide encouragement and support. You can also find comfort in knowing that you are not alone in your struggles and that others have faced similar challenges. Being a Christian does not mean nothing will go wrong. In fact, it can be the total opposite.  You will face times when you feel like you are straining to see God's promises fulfilled. However, you can find comfort in God's word, prayer, and your Christian community. You can trust that God is faithful and His promises will be fulfilled in His perfect timing. PRAYER: When your days are darkened with sorrow and emptiness, may God guard and protect your heart. Don't let what you can't see be the crutch of what you believe. Walk by faith, not by sight. Help to show what to do next. Lord, let Your strength be the fuel to persevere. You go before me. Thank you for this day as we celebrate and honor those who have fallen for our freedom. We salute them and support those who were left behind.  "Be present. Be incredible.

Talking to fellow believers about our doubts and fears can provide encouragement and support. You can also find comfort in knowing that you are not alone in your struggles and that others have faced similar challenges. Being a Christian does not mean nothing will go wrong. In fact, it can be the total opposite.  You will face times when you feel like you are straining to see God's promises fulfilled. However, you can find comfort in God's word, prayer, and your Christian community. You can trust that God is faithful and His promises will be fulfilled in His perfect timing. PRAYER: When your days are darkened with sorrow and emptiness, may God guard and protect your heart. Don't let what you can't see be the crutch of what you believe. Walk by faith, not by sight. Help to show what to do next. Lord, let Your strength be the fuel to persevere. You go before me. Thank you for this day as we celebrate and honor those who have fallen for our freedom. We salute them and support those who were left behind.  "Be present. Be incredible.

But that worse can suffocate the love if not handled properly. What's your Goliath in marriage, that, if it was removed, would change your relationship dramatically?  Obstacles can disrupt any marriage and leave it in disarray, to the point that something must be done before it unravels. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The term "Goliath" is derived from the story of David and Goliath found in the Bible. Goliath was a giant who intimidated and threatened the Israelites in battle. However, David, a young shepherd boy, defeated Goliath with a mere sling and a stone. In essence, Goliath represents any problem or obstacle that seems too big to overcome. In marriage, Goliaths can take many forms: financial challenges, infidelity, infertility, communication breakdown, lack of trust, laundry, the dinner, dishes, and dogs, and so on. These issues can make a couple feel overwhelmed, helpless, and hopeless. But as the story of David and Goliath illustrates, every problem, no matter how big, has a solution, and every obstacle can be overcome. Overcome with a single shot. The K.I.S.S. ~ Overcome with a single shot! Here are three things couples can do to overcome their Goliaths in marriage: 1. Face the Goliath head-on: One of the biggest mistakes a couple can make when dealing with Goliaths in marriage is to ignore them. It is important to face the problem head-on by acknowledging its existence and discussing it openly and honestly. Only when a couple is willing to confront their Goliath can they begin to overcome it. 2. Seek help: No man is an island, and no couple can overcome a Goliath on their own. Seek help from trusted family members, counselors, coaches, trusted friends, pastors, or mentors. They can offer guidance, support, and perspective that can help the couple navigate their way through the problem. 3. Pray: Prayer is a powerful weapon against any Goliath. In the story of David and Goliath, David did not rely on his own strength to defeat the giant. Instead, he put his faith in God and asked for His help. Similarly, couples can pray for wisdom, guidance, and a breakthrough. They can also pray for peace, understanding, and forgiveness, which are essential ingredients for a healthy and strong marriage. Remember this-- David did not just show up in battle with no skills. As a shepherd to his flock, he practiced using his slingshot with small stones, so in the time of need to protect, he could rally his physical strength, mental capacity, and spiritual belief to defeat the one thing that would protect his flock or at this time, the Israelites. Every couple faces their own Goliaths in marriage. But with faith, determination, and the right mindset, any obstacle can be overcome, just like David overcame Goliath. Yet, you can't just think that this excellence will just happen. You must practice your skills. Don't wait to learn new things, to change how you approach struggles in your marriage. You prepare for battle when you're not in battle. Face the problem head-on, seek help, and pray. With these three things, any marriage can emerge stronger, healthier, and more fulfilling than ever before.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Train them up to learn and think beyond the firehose. Raising kids who think deeply and understand the value of life's deeper meaning is a challenging, but a rewarding task for any parent. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   If your child does something that you don't agree with, or could be done better, do you spend more than 5 minutes hounding them about what they didn't do right or telling them what they should have done? When our kiddos make mistakes, it's easy to put on the preaching hat and tell them at that very moment everything that should have occurred. That's what we call learning by the firehose.  But how much of that works? Not a whole lot. In fact, it just clears the surface level of the fire. Instead, parents need to approach the training with a small concentrated stream. That pierces through the mess and gets down a lot deeper. Think about a washcloth after taking off your make-up. If you use the general water faucet, it rinses most of the make-up out, but still leaves a little residue. It doesn't go as deep. But change to a fine stream, and you have a deep-cleaned washcloth with almost no makeup left. Engage the fine stream. The K.I.S.S. ~ Engage the fine stream! You don't want your wisdom to fall on deaf ears. So engage the fine stream to pierce their mind, body, and spirit.  When you train up your children, you are raising up the whole individual. 1. Encourage Questioning and Curiosity To develop a deeper understanding of life, children must be encouraged to ask questions, probe for answers, and have a curious mindset. Encourage your child to ask questions about the world around them, such as why the sky is blue, why leaves change color, or why the moon looks different at night. As you answer these questions, encourage your child to have a conversation that goes beyond the basics. 2. Teach Emotional Intelligence Emotional intelligence is a key factor in developing deeper meaning in life. Teach your child to recognize and name their emotions, understand how they affect their daily life, and empathize with others. Encourage them to express their feelings in healthy ways and develop their emotional vocabulary. 3. Explore Different Cultures and Perspectives Introduce your child to different cultures, worldviews, and perspectives through books, movies, or conversations with people who have different backgrounds. By embracing diversity, your child will learn that everyone has a unique perspective and can enrich our understanding of life. Remember you don't have to agree with someone, but you can respect their position. 4. Teach Self-Reflection and Mindfulness Teaching your child to reflect on their actions, decisions, and thoughts can help them understand themselves better. Encourage them to journal or meditate to help them gain insight and clarity. Create a positive, supportive environment where your child can feel comfortable exploring their feelings and thoughts. 5. Focus on Personal Growth (Who they are becoming) Help your child realize that life is a journey. Teach them of their worth not in their success or failures, but in whose they are. Encourage them to set goals, envision their future, and create steps to achieve their goals. Teach them to view life as a journey, and not just a destination. When you encourage curiosity, teach emotional intelligence, explore different cultures and perspectives, and encourage self-reflection, your child will develop an understanding of life that goes beyond just the surface level. No more firehose learning for the most part. Train up and nurture an inquisitive, mindful, and empathetic child who will be capable of navigating life with a better understanding of its deeper meaning.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Train them up to learn and think beyond the firehose. Raising kids who think deeply and understand the value of life's deeper meaning is a challenging, but a rewarding task for any parent. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   If your child does something that you don't agree with, or could be done better, do you spend more than 5 minutes hounding them about what they didn't do right or telling them what they should have done? When our kiddos make mistakes, it's easy to put on the preaching hat and tell them at that very moment everything that should have occurred. That's what we call learning by the firehose.  But how much of that works? Not a whole lot. In fact, it just clears the surface level of the fire. Instead, parents need to approach the training with a small concentrated stream. That pierces through the mess and gets down a lot deeper. Think about a washcloth after taking off your make-up. If you use the general water faucet, it rinses most of the make-up out, but still leaves a little residue. It doesn't go as deep. But change to a fine stream, and you have a deep-cleaned washcloth with almost no makeup left. Engage the fine stream. The K.I.S.S. ~ Engage the fine stream! You don't want your wisdom to fall on deaf ears. So engage the fine stream to pierce their mind, body, and spirit.  When you train up your children, you are raising up the whole individual. 1. Encourage Questioning and Curiosity To develop a deeper understanding of life, children must be encouraged to ask questions, probe for answers, and have a curious mindset. Encourage your child to ask questions about the world around them, such as why the sky is blue, why leaves change color, or why the moon looks different at night. As you answer these questions, encourage your child to have a conversation that goes beyond the basics. 2. Teach Emotional Intelligence Emotional intelligence is a key factor in developing deeper meaning in life. Teach your child to recognize and name their emotions, understand how they affect their daily life, and empathize with others. Encourage them to express their feelings in healthy ways and develop their emotional vocabulary. 3. Explore Different Cultures and Perspectives Introduce your child to different cultures, worldviews, and perspectives through books, movies, or conversations with people who have different backgrounds. By embracing diversity, your child will learn that everyone has a unique perspective and can enrich our understanding of life. Remember you don't have to agree with someone, but you can respect their position. 4. Teach Self-Reflection and Mindfulness Teaching your child to reflect on their actions, decisions, and thoughts can help them understand themselves better. Encourage them to journal or meditate to help them gain insight and clarity. Create a positive, supportive environment where your child can feel comfortable exploring their feelings and thoughts. 5. Focus on Personal Growth (Who they are becoming) Help your child realize that life is a journey. Teach them of their worth not in their success or failures, but in whose they are. Encourage them to set goals, envision their future, and create steps to achieve their goals. Teach them to view life as a journey, and not just a destination. When you encourage curiosity, teach emotional intelligence, explore different cultures and perspectives, and encourage self-reflection, your child will develop an understanding of life that goes beyond just the surface level. No more firehose learning for the most part. Train up and nurture an inquisitive, mindful, and empathetic child who will...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>864</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,confessions,conflict,dads,discipline,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenthood,parenting,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/3765c7de27007201c3b1dc77c9a10901.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3049 Beyond the Breath</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3049-beyond-the-breath--54090490</link><description><![CDATA[Even though life is unpredictable, what's beyond the breath does not have to be. God created you on purpose, for a purpose. You are made for greatness. Rest in knowing that your strength is not yours to have, but having the faith that God provides. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   We all face challenges in life that can leave us feeling weary and overwhelmed. Whether it’s a difficult financial situation, a health crisis, relationship struggles, or simply the stresses of everyday life, the weight of our burdens can be heavy to bear. But it is during these times that you must remember that you are made for greatness and that your purpose is to trust in God’s plan. Walk by faith, not by sight. It can be easy to lose hope in the face of adversity, but it is precisely in these moments that you can tap into your strength and find inspiration. You must remember that you are not alone in your struggles, and that God is with you every step of the way. And while you may not have all of the answers to your problems, you can trust that God has a plan for your life, and that His timing is perfect. The K.I.S.S. ~ Beyond the breath! In the Bible, we are reminded that "faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." (Hebrews 11:1) This means that even when we cannot see the outcome of our situation, we can have hope and faith that God is prepared for such a time as this. He goes before you. God is not surprised, even though your heart might be. So, take heart, and have faith in the knowledge that you are not alone in your struggles. Trust in God’s plan for your life, and allow Him to guide you through the challenges that you face. You are made for greatness. And with God's help, you have the strength to overcome whatever obstacles come your way. In times of struggle, take a moment to rest and find peace in the knowledge that God provides the strength you need to persevere. With this faith and trust in God’s plan, you can find the inspiration and hope to overcome life’s challenges and move forward toward a brighter tomorrow.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But when stress begins to interfere with our daily lives, action is required. Don't let stress cause you physical and emotional turmoil. Learn healthy ways to reduce stress. First and foremost, it's essential to recognize the source of your stress. Sometimes the source is obvious, such as a difficult job or family problems. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Other times, the source of stress may be unclear, and in these instances, self-reflection may be necessary. Prayer and meditation can be great tools to help us discover the underlying issues causing us stress. In Matthew 6:34, we are reminded not to worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own troubles. This is good advice. Because constantly worrying about tomorrow can lead to unnecessary stress. If you want to listen to Dr. Phil and ways you can improve your mental health, head on over to Pray.com. There you will find Prayer Therapy with Dr. Phil.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Healthy ways to reduce stress! Once you've identified the source of your stress, it's time to explore ways to reduce it. Exercise is a great way to reduce stress. Exercise helps to release endorphins, which are chemicals that improve mood and reduce stress levels. And if you're not sure where to start, you can always ask your doctor for recommendations. Another way to tackle stress is through social support. Talking with a trusted friend or family member can help you alleviate stress. As Proverbs 17:17 reminds us, a friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity. You don't have to deal with stress alone; reach out to someone you trust. Finally, make sure you're taking care of your physical health. A nutritious diet and adequate sleep are essential to reducing stress levels. Consider incorporating mindfulness practices into your daily routine. Being mindful can help you be present and focused, which can ultimately help reduce stress levels. Stress is an unfortunate reality of life. But by identifying the source of stress, and using healthy strategies to combat it, stress doesn't have to control our lives. Matthew 11:28, Jesus reminds us, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." So lean on your faith, take care of your mind, body, and spirit, and then conquer your stress. You can do it!   "Train for life.

Don't let stress cause you physical and emotional turmoil. Learn healthy ways to reduce stress. First and foremost, it's essential to recognize the source of your stress. Sometimes the source is obvious, such as a difficult job or family problems. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Other times, the source of stress may be unclear, and in these instances, self-reflection may be necessary. Prayer and meditation can be great tools to help us discover the underlying issues causing us stress. In Matthew 6:34, we are reminded not to worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own troubles. This is good advice. Because constantly worrying about tomorrow can lead to unnecessary stress. If you want to listen to Dr. Phil and ways you can improve your mental health, head on over to Pray.com. There you will find Prayer Therapy with Dr. Phil.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Healthy ways to reduce stress! Once you've identified the source of your stress, it's time to explore ways to reduce it. Exercise is a great way to reduce stress. Exercise helps to release endorphins, which are chemicals that improve mood and reduce stress levels. And if you're not sure where to start, you can always ask your doctor for recommendations. Another way to tackle stress is through social support. Talking with a trusted friend or family member can help you alleviate stress. As Proverbs 17:17 reminds us, a friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity. You don't have to deal with stress alone; reach out to someone you trust. Finally, make sure you're taking care of your physical health. A nutritious diet and adequate sleep are essential to reducing stress levels. Consider incorporating mindfulness practices into your daily routine. Being mindful can help you be present and focused, which can ultimately help reduce stress levels. Stress is an unfortunate reality of life. But by identifying the source of stress, and using healthy strategies to combat it, stress doesn't have to control our lives. Matthew 11:28, Jesus reminds us, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." So lean on your faith, take care of your mind, body, and spirit, and then conquer your stress. You can do it!   "Train for life.

And you never lose hope. Even when things are really, really, really bad – there’s always hope.” ~ Alveda King     Life does not get easier, but you can say it gets simpler. There's always hope.

A choice to look at your circumstances as less than. Yet how does that serve you? Because if you stop and think, and that's what I'm asking of you today, you are an intelligent person who knows the difference between feelings and facts.  <br />- Your heart doesn't need to fall apart because of what you can't do. <br />- You don't have to feel worthless because of what the world dishes out. <br /> The K.I.S.S. ~ There's always hope! Hope does not come from your feelings or facts. Hope comes from whose you are.  God created you on purpose for a purpose. That is where your hope lies. God carries your heart no matter how tender or stern it is in the moment. He can love you through anything with His grace and mercy. And He can lift you up when nothing else will. There's always hope! So let me ask you this. Where have you been searching for hope?  <br />- Are you looking at your children, wishing that everything they do would fill your empty soul? <br />- Are you planning a comeback for your setback your way? <br />- Are you dancing with what doesn't work, more than what is proven to work? <br /> I don't know about you, but I can be pretty stubborn and determined. Control feels better, especially when life seems to be falling apart. Meanwhile, as you are contemplating what is next, God has already prepared the way, waiting for you to show up. Don't let the frustration of what you can't control bury what you can overcome. There's always hope! Stand up today not for what you can do, but for whose you are.   "Be present. Be incredible.

You don't have to be a marketer to know that what you want to achieve and how you plan to accomplish it is half the battle. "Clarity leads to focused actions. (Jon Gordon)" Without a clear plan in place, you may find yourself taking actions that are not aligned with your goals, wasting time and resources. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Instead, taking the time to clarify your objectives can lead to focused action that moves you toward success, getting what you want in life. The same can be said for any aspect of life, not just marketing. Clarity is critical to achieving any goal, whether personal or professional. When you have clarity, you can focus your efforts and make progress toward your desired outcome. Otherwise, you may feel lost and unsure of where to start, leading to inaction and stagnation. Who wants to stay right where they are?  You have a dream waiting in the balance. Why keep dancing in circles? Gain clarity so you can move closer to living out your calling in life.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Gain clarity! So, how can you gain clarity in your life or your business? Start by defining your goals. What do you want to achieve, and what steps do you need to take to get there? Break down your goals into actionable steps and create a plan to accomplish them. Next, identify any obstacles that may stand in the way of achieving your goals. This could be anything from a lack of resources, to negative self-talk, to external factors beyond your control. By acknowledging these obstacles beforehand, you can create a plan to overcome them and stay on track toward success. Finally, communicate your plan to others. Whether it's to your team members or loved ones, sharing your goals and action plan holds you accountable and helps to gain support and encouragement. Remember, clarity leads to focused action, and with a clear plan in place, you can take decisive actions that lead to the results you desire. Clarity is the key to achieving any goal, whether in marketing or in life. Gaining that focus is possible. If you tend to look at the big picture all the time, take a breath and look at the smaller picture; just your next step. Because that is what really matters. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Let's take decision-making to another level.  Remember Jon Gordon's advice, "Clarity leads to focused actions," and make it a mantra for both your business and personal life. PRAYER: Protect the heart as the mind does the work. Lord, help me do the heavy lifting by clearing the clutter. May Your dream for me become a part of my steps every day.   "Be present.

You don't have to be a marketer to know that what you want to achieve and how you plan to accomplish it is half the battle. "Clarity leads to focused actions. (Jon Gordon)" Without a clear plan in place, you may find yourself taking actions that are not aligned with your goals, wasting time and resources. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Instead, taking the time to clarify your objectives can lead to focused action that moves you toward success, getting what you want in life. The same can be said for any aspect of life, not just marketing. Clarity is critical to achieving any goal, whether personal or professional. When you have clarity, you can focus your efforts and make progress toward your desired outcome. Otherwise, you may feel lost and unsure of where to start, leading to inaction and stagnation. Who wants to stay right where they are?  You have a dream waiting in the balance. Why keep dancing in circles? Gain clarity so you can move closer to living out your calling in life.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Gain clarity! So, how can you gain clarity in your life or your business? Start by defining your goals. What do you want to achieve, and what steps do you need to take to get there? Break down your goals into actionable steps and create a plan to accomplish them. Next, identify any obstacles that may stand in the way of achieving your goals. This could be anything from a lack of resources, to negative self-talk, to external factors beyond your control. By acknowledging these obstacles beforehand, you can create a plan to overcome them and stay on track toward success. Finally, communicate your plan to others. Whether it's to your team members or loved ones, sharing your goals and action plan holds you accountable and helps to gain support and encouragement. Remember, clarity leads to focused action, and with a clear plan in place, you can take decisive actions that lead to the results you desire. Clarity is the key to achieving any goal, whether in marketing or in life. Gaining that focus is possible. If you tend to look at the big picture all the time, take a breath and look at the smaller picture; just your next step. Because that is what really matters. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Let's take decision-making to another level.  Remember Jon Gordon's advice, "Clarity leads to focused actions," and make it a mantra for both your business and personal life. PRAYER: Protect the heart as the mind does the work. Lord, help me do the heavy lifting by clearing the clutter. May Your dream for me become a part of my steps every day.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. So why are you running? Why are you trying to control absolutely everything? That is not a wise way to lead your every day.

Would the situation have been different if either you or your spouse had better communication? Most of the time, the answer is YES!! Human beings are really strange. When we are listening, our ears quickly shut down because we've already moved to the resolution of the problem (situation).  The sentences are finished in your mind, but your spouse has yet to stop talking. And we wonder why there are problems. If we don't listen within our marriage, what kind of relationship do we have? Not much of one. For the sake of your marriage, let your ears be the strength to hear. The K.I.S.S. ~ Let your ears be the strength to hear! "Mental strength withers if the ears do not hear." ~ Kristianne Wargo With life's ups and downs, you have to have a strong heart and a strong mind with ears to hear. Here are ways to enhance your listening skills and strengthen your marriage: 1. Give Undivided Attention: One of the most important aspects of active listening is to provide undivided attention to your partner. This means putting aside all distractions such as your phone, television, and other distractions, and focusing solely on what your spouse is saying. Listen to their tone, facial expressions, and body language to gain a complete understanding of their perspective. 2. Practice Empathy: When listening to your spouse, put yourself in their shoes and try to understand their point of view. Understand that empathy requires patience, attention, and intent. Take time to ask questions and clarify any misunderstandings to avoid any unnecessary conflicts. Who really wants a fight anyways? 3. Respond Appropriately: Responding appropriately means acknowledging what your spouse said and responding in a thoughtful way. It's crucial to show that you care about their thoughts and feelings, even if you don't entirely agree with their perspective. Responding appropriately means taking some notes and finding room for change in an open and authentic way. Listening is an integral part of communication that impacts the strength and well-being of your marriage. Active listening ensures that both partners feel heard, validated, and appreciated. By following these three key actions, you can enhance your listening skills and cultivate stronger relationships with your partner through empathetic conversations. Remember that the ears play an important role in the health and success of your marriage, so always be mindful of how well you listen.   "Be present. Be incredible.

As parents, our words can influence our children’s confidence, happiness, and well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   While it’s important to be firm with our words, it’s equally important to be compassionate and considerate of our child’s emotional state. This is Mental Health Awareness Month. And mom (dad)-- We have got to get in the game and stand for our children, their minds, and their hearts. And that means that it's not about how many activities they are in, how busy they are, or where they rank in their class. What matters is their emotional, physical, and mental well-being.  You are grooming not only the actions of your child, but the thoughts of your child. All the more reason why you must watch your words. The K.I.S.S. ~ Watch your words! What we think of teasing or just having fun, may actually be received as hurtful to your child.  So pay attention to the well-being of your child; how they handle criticism vs. teasing. There will be clues if they aren't really secure and confident in who they are.  If we don't take time to know and notice our children, who will? Let's make some noise for our kiddos' mindset and mental well-being. 1. Be Mindful of Your Tone: Children are sensitive to the tone of the conversation. A harsh tone can sound like criticism, even if the words are not negative. Be mindful of your tone and choose a tone that is firm but also compassionate. 2. Avoid Negative Words: When correcting your child, avoid negative words and keep the conversation constructive. Saying “You messed up again,” can be hurtful and diminish your child’s confidence. Instead, say, “Let's work on this together. You got this!" 3. Listen to Your Child: Listening is key to effective communication. Allow your child to express their feelings and share their point of view. Validating your child's perspective and feelings will help them feel heard and understood. 4. Provide Positive Reinforcement: It is important to acknowledge your child's achievements and good behavior. Positive reinforcement builds confidence and encourages positive behavior. 5. Be Apologetic: When you fail as a parent, apologize. There may be times when you say things you don't mean, or that may be hurtful. In such cases, apologizing can demonstrate compassion and that you care about your child’s feelings. It also teaches your children the value of taking responsibility for your actions and repairing any damage caused. There are consequences to every word, thought, and action; good or bad. Words are powerful, so you must watch your words. The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit. ~ Proverbs 15:4 PRAYER: Mom (Dad)--  Be firm with your tongue yet compassionate for their heart.    "Be present.

Don't fret about being perfect. A little goes a long way. It's super easy to indulge in unhealthy food, skips workouts, and live with bad habits. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But the good news is that even small changes can make a significant impact on your health. There is something about "less is more." So what are you doing more of that if you would do less of, that would change your healthy outlook?  <br />- Overeating processed foods <br />- Drinking more sugar <br />- Staying up way too late <br />- Not moving at all except to get the kids from school <br />- Enjoying caffeinated beverages <br /> If you do less of the above, then that makes room to do more because you are doing less. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do more because you're doing less! Drink More Water: Drinking enough water to stay hydrated is crucial for your body to function correctly. Research has shown that even mild dehydration can lead to decreased physical and mental performance. Drinking enough water can also help you lose weight, improve your skin, and reduce the risk of various diseases. Aim for at least eight glasses of water a day.<br /> <br /> Take the Stairs: Skipping the elevator and taking the stairs can make a massive difference in your overall health. Climbing stairs can give your heart and lungs a great workout and help you burn calories. Studies suggest that taking the stairs instead of the elevator can reduce the risk of heart disease and improve your overall health.<br /> <br /> Get Enough Sleep: Getting enough sleep is critical for good health. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, adults should get at least seven hours of sleep a night. Lack of sleep can lead to weight gain, reduced work performance, and increase your risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and depression.<br /> <br /> Eat More Whole Foods: Eating whole foods like fresh vegetables, fruits, and lean protein can help improve your overall health. Whole foods contain essential vitamins and minerals that your body needs to function correctly, making you feel fuller for longer, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.   Prepare Your Eating Time: Sit down instead of snacking.<br /> <br /> Limit Screen Time: Spending too much time in front of a screen can lead to various health problems, including insomnia, vision problems, and obesity. Limiting your screen time can improve your mental and physical health.   Less Added Sugar: Cut back on what disrupts your mind and body.<br /> <br /> Small changes can make the most significant impact on your health and well-being. By incorporating these little habits into your daily routine, you can lead a healthier life. Remember, "A little goes a long way" in living a healthy lifestyle!        "Be present. Be incredible.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Do more because you're doing less! Drink More Water: Drinking enough water to stay hydrated is crucial for your body to function correctly. Research has shown that even mild dehydration can lead to decreased physical and mental performance. Drinking enough water can also help you lose weight, improve your skin, and reduce the risk of various diseases. Aim for at least eight glasses of water a day.<br /> <br /> Take the Stairs: Skipping the elevator and taking the stairs can make a massive difference in your overall health. Climbing stairs can give your heart and lungs a great workout and help you burn calories. Studies suggest that taking the stairs instead of the elevator can reduce the risk of heart disease and improve your overall health.<br /> <br /> Get Enough Sleep: Getting enough sleep is critical for good health. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, adults should get at least seven hours of sleep a night. Lack of sleep can lead to weight gain, reduced work performance, and increase your risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and depression.<br /> <br /> Eat More Whole Foods: Eating whole foods like fresh vegetables, fruits, and lean protein can help improve your overall health. Whole foods contain essential vitamins and minerals that your body needs to function correctly, making you feel fuller for longer, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.   Prepare Your Eating Time: Sit down instead of snacking.<br /> <br /> Limit Screen Time: Spending too much time in front of a screen can lead to various health problems, including insomnia, vision problems, and obesity. Limiting your screen time can improve your mental and physical health.   Less Added Sugar: Cut back on what disrupts your mind and body.<br /> <br /> Small changes can make the most significant impact on your health and well-being. By incorporating these little habits into your daily routine, you can lead a healthier life. Remember, "A little goes a long way" in living a healthy lifestyle!        "Be present. Be incredible.

Take the little things to create your now, as you paint the day with small strokes.  Small things may be seen as insignificant when we take into consideration the great task ahead of us.

This makes it important to focus on the process, rather than the outcome. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the magnitude of a project, but it's in the small steps that you gradually build momentum and skill - and eventually, you cross the finish line. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Paint the day with small strokes! For instance, a writer may feel intimidated by the prospect of writing a thousand-page novel. But by taking small, consistent steps every day, like dedicating an hour each day to write or read five pages a day, they'll gradually build the story piece by piece. The truth is, it's not just about doing small things- it's also about consistency with the small things. So keep focused on building strong habits which ensures that every small step taken counts. After all, it is the consistency with which you take these small steps that pave the way for completing the whole journey. So, what project have you been putting off because it seems overwhelming? Where do you need to dig deeper, and gain respect for all the small steps? Nothing is impossible. Break down your day into small, achievable, and actionable steps, and begin today. Take those baby steps, and with patience, persistence, and passion- And when you do so, you'll soon find yourself creating and achieving great things one step at a time. Remember that the only way to reach your destination is to take those small, seemingly insignificant steps and turn them into something magnificent. This is a journey of a lifetime.

Eventually, burning the candle at both ends will become your reality. So take heart. You can impact greatly in your small pockets of time. It may feel like a drop in the bucket, but every little bit counts. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Life can often feel like a race against time. There seems to be a never-ending list of tasks that we need to get done. From work to family obligations, we're always on the go. However, it's important to remember that we cannot do everything all the time. You have to understand the value of your time, so you can use it to benefit what matters most. Life is too short to live by assumptions and fly by the seat of your pants. Ignite a fabulous future; let little become much! The K.I.S.S. ~ Let little become much! 1. Prioritize your time<br /> <br /> Time is a precious commodity, and it's essential to use it wisely. Take some time to sit down and evaluate your daily routine. Are there any activities or tasks that are not necessary? Prioritize your time by focusing on the most critical tasks and letting go of less crucial ones.<br /> <br /> 2. Chunk your time<br /> <br /> This is where you break tasks into smaller chunks. It's easy to become overwhelmed by a large project or task. But, breaking it down into smaller, more manageable pieces can make it feel less daunting. So tackle a task in small increments, and then you'll make progress and feel a sense of accomplishment.<br /> <br /> 3. Use your time wisely<br /> <br /> While waiting for a doctor's appointment or standing in a long queue, use that time to make small progress on tasks like responding to emails, brainstorming ideas, or making phone calls. It can be easy to get lost in scrolling through social media or watching videos, but using those small pockets of time for productivity can make a big difference.<br /> <br /> Remember that "letting little become much" is a choice. It's about making the most out of the small pockets of time that you have and using your time wisely.  You can achieve your goals and significantly impact your life when you let little become much through your small pockets of time.

Eventually, burning the candle at both ends will become your reality. So take heart. You can impact greatly in your small pockets of time. It may feel like a drop in the bucket, but every little bit counts. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Life can often feel like a race against time. There seems to be a never-ending list of tasks that we need to get done. From work to family obligations, we're always on the go. However, it's important to remember that we cannot do everything all the time. You have to understand the value of your time, so you can use it to benefit what matters most. Life is too short to live by assumptions and fly by the seat of your pants. Ignite a fabulous future; let little become much! The K.I.S.S. ~ Let little become much! 1. Prioritize your time<br /> <br /> Time is a precious commodity, and it's essential to use it wisely. Take some time to sit down and evaluate your daily routine. Are there any activities or tasks that are not necessary? Prioritize your time by focusing on the most critical tasks and letting go of less crucial ones.<br /> <br /> 2. Chunk your time<br /> <br /> This is where you break tasks into smaller chunks. It's easy to become overwhelmed by a large project or task. But, breaking it down into smaller, more manageable pieces can make it feel less daunting. So tackle a task in small increments, and then you'll make progress and feel a sense of accomplishment.<br /> <br /> 3. Use your time wisely<br /> <br /> While waiting for a doctor's appointment or standing in a long queue, use that time to make small progress on tasks like responding to emails, brainstorming ideas, or making phone calls. It can be easy to get lost in scrolling through social media or watching videos, but using those small pockets of time for productivity can make a big difference.<br /> <br /> Remember that "letting little become much" is a choice. It's about making the most out of the small pockets of time that you have and using your time wisely.  You can achieve your goals and significantly impact your life when you let little become much through your small pockets of time.

(Proverbs 16:9)" Take comfort in knowing that God guides your steps, regardless of your plans. How much are you trying to control? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   If you're a mom, you know a little bit about control. You have to tend to the children, your spouse, your family, your home, your career, and your community.  Soon, control is a secret middle name for all that you do.  But if we're honest, control is a survival skill. However, we can get immersed in control for all the wrong reasons. You devise those plans, set your goals, and plot your course, seeking to shape your future with your hands. As much as you think you are in control, it's God who directs your steps. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take comfort in knowing! My friend, you are called to align your intentions with God's will. It's about recognizing that your knowledge is limited and that your view is partial. But God sees the BIGGER picture. He knows the best path for you and will lead you there, often in ways you didn't foresee. God works in mysterious ways.  And the one thing you can do is stop trying to outshine God.  Instead, walk in step with Him. When you lead with a spirit of unconditional surrender, you invite God into your every day. And that means He is going to help you make your plans, set your goals, and reap the harvest of which you sow.  "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 Take comfort in knowing. God sees the whole journey (that 360* view), and promises to lead you where you need to be.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What can you do to impact your health besides food and exercise? You know the saying, "You are the sum of the five people you hang out with." If that is true, then let's look deeper into other areas of your lifestyle. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   From the air you breathe to the people you interact with, every aspect of your environment has a significant impact on your physical, emotional, and mental health.  Let's explore the ways in which your surroundings affect your health and well-being. The K.I.S.S. ~ Explore your surroundings! Air Quality<br /> The quality of the air you breathe is crucial to your health. Poor air quality can exacerbate respiratory problems and lead to a range of health issues, including asthma, allergies, and even cancer. Make sure your home or workplace has proper ventilation, and invest in an air purification system if necessary.<br /> <br /> Physical Environment<br /> Your physical environment can also be a factor in your well-being. A cluttered or poorly-designed workspace or home can lead to increased stress levels and decreased productivity. On the other hand, an organized and comfortable environment can have a calming effect and promote a sense of well-being.<br /> <br /> Social Surroundings<br /> The people you interact with on a regular basis also have an impact on your health. Surrounding yourself with positive, supportive friends and family members can help reduce stress and promote happiness and well-being. On the other hand, toxic relationships can have a negative impact on your mental health and overall well-being.<br /> <br /> Noise Pollution<br /> Noise pollution can be a major source of stress and discomfort. Loud noise from traffic, construction, or other sources can lead to increased stress levels, lack of sleep, and even hearing damage. It’s important to find ways to reduce noise pollution in your environment, whether it be through soundproofing or simply finding a quieter environment.<br /> <br /> Natural Environment<br /> Last but not least, the natural environment can have a major impact on our health and well-being. Access to green spaces and natural environments has been linked to a range of positive health outcomes, such as decreased stress levels, improved immune function, and increased physical activity.<br /> <br /> Your surroundings have a significant impact on your health and well-being. What steps do you need to take to increase the sum of your surroundings? Start with one, and then expand from there.

Make sure your home or workplace has proper ventilation, and invest in an air purification system if necessary.<br /> <br /> Physical Environment<br /> Your physical environment can also be a factor in your well-being. A cluttered or poorly-designed workspace or home can lead to increased stress levels and decreased productivity. On the other hand, an organized and comfortable environment can have a calming effect and promote a sense of well-being.<br /> <br /> Social Surroundings<br /> The people you interact with on a regular basis also have an impact on your health. Surrounding yourself with positive, supportive friends and family members can help reduce stress and promote happiness and well-being. On the other hand, toxic relationships can have a negative impact on your mental health and overall well-being.<br /> <br /> Noise Pollution<br /> Noise pollution can be a major source of stress and discomfort. Loud noise from traffic, construction, or other sources can lead to increased stress levels, lack of sleep, and even hearing damage. It’s important to find ways to reduce noise pollution in your environment, whether it be through soundproofing or simply finding a quieter environment.<br /> <br /> Natural Environment<br /> Last but not least, the natural environment can have a major impact on our health and well-being. Access to green spaces and natural environments has been linked to a range of positive health outcomes, such as decreased stress levels, improved immune function, and increased physical activity.<br /> <br /> Your surroundings have a significant impact on your health and well-being.

This is because our words and thoughts are connected, and they have a huge impact on our subconscious mind, which in turn affects our actions and decisions.<br /> <br /> But it's not just about positive and negative language. The way we craft our sentences and connect our paragraphs also has an impact on our day.

So flip the switch. Joy is a great alarm clock. You know this common expression all too well. You know it describes the feeling of starting your day off on the wrong foot. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you're feeling angry or groggy, and that negative energy carries through to the rest of your day. But what if you could choose how you rise each morning? What if you could start your day with a sense of joy and positivity?<br /> <br /> Joy is a great alarm clock. It can help you start your day off on the right foot. With its gentle wake-up sounds and customizable settings, Joy can help you wake up feeling refreshed and energized every morning. But it's not just about the mechanics of the alarm clock. It's about what it represents: the power of intention. How are you choosing to rise for your day? The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose your attitude wisely! Because your attitude impacts absolutely EVERYTHING!! Our daughter had her white coat ceremony this past weekend. What a celebration! The family was all in town, including our grandson.  On Sunday, we decided to go to the town square for the annual fair. When we returned home after about 3 hours, he was ready for a nap. So down he went. 3 hours later, he woke up. Mom when to go get him, and all I could hear was his fussing. How could he be so fussy after having such a great nap? So, of course, Grandma went up there to check on all the commotion. Mom spelled to me how he got up on the wrong side of the bed. No matter what she said, he was crabby. After our incognito spelling bee, I asked him how if he slept well. And he proudly responded with a smile, "Yes, slept well." From that point on, it was a changed little boy. He was happy and ready to go do anything and everything with a smile. Now, you and I both know he was challenging his mom. But Grandma comes into the picture, and life isn't so bad. So he chose to be happy instead of crabby. Joy is a great alarm clock. When you choose to wake up with Joy, you're making a conscious decision to start your day with joy. Just because you "feel" crabby and that's grabbing your attention the most, so you can get the attention; it doesn't mean you ARE crabby. All it means is that it's screaming the loudest so you don't have to work at how you want to "feel". When you rise, you set the tone for the rest of your day. Put yourself in a mindset that is open to positivity and possibility. That in itself can have a huge impact on how you interact with the world and how you impact the world you touch.<br /> <br /> Think about it: if you wake up feeling grumpy and negative, you're more likely to snap at your coworkers or family members, to rush through your tasks without really engaging with them, and to make decisions that might not be in your best interest. But if you wake up feeling joyful and centered, you're more likely to greet the people around you with kindness and compassion, to approach your work with focus and creativity, and to make choices that align with your values. And remember, joy is not dependent on your circumstances, situations, or season of life. Joy does not come from what is thrown at you. Joy comes from whose you are.<br /> <br /> Choosing to wake up with Joy and in joy is more than just choosing a specific alarm clock. It's choosing to take control of your day, to set your intentions, and to create a positive ripple effect that can touch everyone around you. So the question is, how will you choose to rise?<br /> <br /> When you choose joy, you can wake up to a world of possibility, potential, and progress. Take that first step towards living your life on purpose for your greater calling. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May joy become the alarm clock that awakens the refreshment and rejuvenation within you. Take time to control your morning and start living your best life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

So flip the switch. Joy is a great alarm clock. You know this common expression all too well. You know it describes the feeling of starting your day off on the wrong foot. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you're feeling angry or groggy, and that negative energy carries through to the rest of your day. But what if you could choose how you rise each morning? What if you could start your day with a sense of joy and positivity?<br /> <br /> Joy is a great alarm clock. It can help you start your day off on the right foot. With its gentle wake-up sounds and customizable settings, Joy can help you wake up feeling refreshed and energized every morning. But it's not just about the mechanics of the alarm clock. It's about what it represents: the power of intention. How are you choosing to rise for your day? The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose your attitude wisely! Because your attitude impacts absolutely EVERYTHING!! Our daughter had her white coat ceremony this past weekend. What a celebration! The family was all in town, including our grandson.  On Sunday, we decided to go to the town square for the annual fair. When we returned home after about 3 hours, he was ready for a nap. So down he went. 3 hours later, he woke up. Mom when to go get him, and all I could hear was his fussing. How could he be so fussy after having such a great nap? So, of course, Grandma went up there to check on all the commotion. Mom spelled to me how he got up on the wrong side of the bed. No matter what she said, he was crabby. After our incognito spelling bee, I asked him how if he slept well. And he proudly responded with a smile, "Yes, slept well." From that point on, it was a changed little boy. He was happy and ready to go do anything and everything with a smile. Now, you and I both know he was challenging his mom. But Grandma comes into the picture, and life isn't so bad. So he chose to be happy instead of crabby. Joy is a great alarm clock. When you choose to wake up with Joy, you're making a conscious decision to start your day with joy. Just because you "feel" crabby and that's grabbing your attention the most, so you can get the attention; it doesn't mean you ARE crabby. All it means is that it's screaming the loudest so you don't have to work at how you want to "feel". When you rise, you set the tone for the rest of your day. Put yourself in a mindset that is open to positivity and possibility. That in itself can have a huge impact on how you interact with the world and how you impact the world you touch.<br /> <br /> Think about it: if you wake up feeling grumpy and negative, you're more likely to snap at your coworkers or family members, to rush through your tasks without really engaging with them, and to make decisions that might not be in your best interest. But if you wake up feeling joyful and centered, you're more likely to greet the people around you with kindness and compassion, to approach your work with focus and creativity, and to make choices that align with your values. And remember, joy is not dependent on your circumstances, situations, or season of life. Joy does not come from what is thrown at you. Joy comes from whose you are.<br /> <br /> Choosing to wake up with Joy and in joy is more than just choosing a specific alarm clock. It's choosing to take control of your day, to set your intentions, and to create a positive ripple effect that can touch everyone around you. So the question is, how will you choose to rise?<br /> <br /> When you choose joy, you can wake up to a world of possibility, potential, and progress. Take that first step towards living your...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>922</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,dreams,entrepreneurs,forgiveness,goals,gratitude,growth,happiness,joy,leadership,mindset,presence,productivity,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing,writers</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/fe933a5312a0617c5d6f8d9eb279c6de.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3031 Every Temptation is an Invitation</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3031-every-temptation-is-an-invitation--54090521</link><description><![CDATA[Temptation is something every human being faces in their day-to-day life. Regardless of what might lead you astray, every temptation is an invitation to depend on God. "Blessed is the one who endures temptation because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him." - James 1:12 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Temptation can come in many forms, such as the temptation to cheat on a test, to steal something, or even to lie. While temptation can be seen as a negative force in your life, it can also be an invitation to grow in faith and character.<br /> <br /> Every time you are presented with a temptation, you have the opportunity to grow stronger spiritually by relying on God's strength and grace to overcome it. Because when you resist the temptation, you become better equipped to handle similar situations that may arise in the future. The K.I.S.S. ~ Every temptation is an invitation to depend on God! In a sense, each temptation is an invitation to become a more virtuous person, and to develop the fruits of the Holy Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.<br /> <br /> As a believer, a Christian, you are not promised an easy life free of temptation and trials. However, you can take comfort in knowing that your struggles are not in vain. In fact, when you endure temptation and stand the test, you are promised a crown of life by the Lord. The trials you face today are, but a small price to pay, for the eternal reward and blessings that await you.<br /> <br /> Don't fear temptation. Instead, see it as an invitation to grow stronger in your faith and character. Each time you overcome temptation, you become better equipped to handle future challenges with confidence. So embrace every temptation with faith in God's strength and grace, for it is through Him that we can overcome all things. PRAYER: May your temptations in life not strike your heart cold and freeze your momentum. Lean into God's strength and grace by walking in faith, knowing that He goes before you. Nothing is impossible with God.   "Be present. Be incredible.

At some point, complete acceptance comes from unconditional love; just the way you are. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Differences are great. But depending on how you perceive them or accept them, it will definitely change the trajectory of your marriage. You have to be willing to exchange uncommon currency. The K.I.S.S. ~ Exchange uncommon currency! Because you are both so different, celebrate that in a unique manner.  I mean, seriously, who really wants to be married to themselves? If you're honest, you don't want to.  <br />- Support the quirks. That's probably one of the first things that attracted you to your spouse. <br />- Forgive quicker than you accuse. Forgiveness builds the love bank account. And if you like to get some return on your investment, you have to invest first. <br />- Break down the walls. You can do life together if there are walls. Be authentic with your spouse. Don't play games. Be honest.  <br /> Exchange uncommon currency. The world may share with you that being married is not the way to go.  But if you come just the way you are, then get what is seen. No surprises.  Imagine a life of honesty. Truth matters in a marriage. PRAYER: May your heart build trust with your spouse, making way to come just the way you are.   "Be present. Be incredible.

At some point, complete acceptance comes from unconditional love; just the way you are. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Why did you like your spouse so much while you were dating, but now, you question the motives and reasons they are who they are? Differences are great. But depending on how you perceive them or accept them, it will definitely change the trajectory of your marriage. You have to be willing to exchange uncommon currency. The K.I.S.S. ~ Exchange uncommon currency! Because you are both so different, celebrate that in a unique manner.  I mean, seriously, who really wants to be married to themselves? If you're honest, you don't want to.  <br />- Support the quirks. That's probably one of the first things that attracted you to your spouse. <br />- Forgive quicker than you accuse. Forgiveness builds the love bank account. And if you like to get some return on your investment, you have to invest first. <br />- Break down the walls. You can do life together if there are walls. Be authentic with your spouse. Don't play games. Be honest.  <br /> Exchange uncommon currency. The world may share with you that being married is not the way to go.  But if you come just the way you are, then get what is seen. No surprises.  Imagine a life of honesty. Truth matters in a marriage. PRAYER: May your heart build trust with your spouse, making way to come just the way you are.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what about the failures? Great impact requires greater influence which is defined by more teachable moments. Don't let what you didn't think worked fall on deaf ears. Double your impact! As human beings, we are wired for success. We want to achieve greatness and leave a lasting impact on the world around us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It's natural to want to focus on your achievements and victories, but often, you forget that your failures can be powerful teachable moments. Failure teaches us resilience, and determination, and helps us learn from our mistakes.  QUESTION: How do you handle failures? Instead of focusing solely on your successes, try to look at your failures as opportunities for growth and development. Failure is not the end, but rather the beginning of a new chapter in your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Double your impact! If you look at failures as a way to beef up where you've fallen short, the pain will be much less, and you will rebound much faster.  <br />- Embrace your failures. We all fail. So why do you get all wrapped up in what you couldn't do? Life is more than success. Look at your reflection, your family, your neighbors, your community. Success is not defined by what you get right. Success is defined by what you learn in the process of progress. <br />- Discover the value add. When you fall short and don't get something right, figure out what did go right. What did you learn? <br />- Target who matters. Why does having to be right trump what matters? The relationships you have in life (your family, your friends, those who cross your path), that is who matters.  <br /> Double your impact! PRAYER: May your failures set you up for your comeback.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Great impact requires greater influence which is defined by more teachable moments. Don't let what you didn't think worked fall on deaf ears. Double your impact! As human beings, we are wired for success. We want to achieve greatness and leave a lasting impact on the world around us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It's natural to want to focus on your achievements and victories, but often, you forget that your failures can be powerful teachable moments. Failure teaches us resilience, and determination, and helps us learn from our mistakes.  QUESTION: How do you handle failures? Instead of focusing solely on your successes, try to look at your failures as opportunities for growth and development. Failure is not the end, but rather the beginning of a new chapter in your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Double your impact! If you look at failures as a way to beef up where you've fallen short, the pain will be much less, and you will rebound much faster.  <br />- Embrace your failures. We all fail. So why do you get all wrapped up in what you couldn't do? Life is more than success. Look at your reflection, your family, your neighbors, your community. Success is not defined by what you get right. Success is defined by what you learn in the process of progress. <br />- Discover the value add. When you fall short and don't get something right, figure out what did go right. What did you learn? <br />- Target who matters. Why does having to be right trump what matters? The relationships you have in life (your family, your friends, those who cross your path), that is who matters.  <br /> Double your impact! PRAYER: May your failures set you up for your comeback.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Couples cannot thrive together if they are trying to do life separately. Maximize your love. How long did your honeymoon phase last? You know, the one that your sweetheart could do no wrong. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   You might be lucky if it lasted longer than two years. But in reality, it was probably a lot shorter.  Life started to spin out of control (bills, career demands, friends, household duties, temptations, etc.), and all you could do is just put yourself in survival mode. If my spouse would just do this, in this manner, and repeat as necessary, life would be great. But as the months turn into years, you find out that what you thought marriage was supposed to be, was completely opposite of what it was. All you could do now is to stay in your lane and not upset the waters too much, or the boat would be tossed to sea. And that was an experience you dreaded. Why is it that we live our lives to minimize what matters in order to maximize what really doesn't? It becomes more self-serving and self-indulging that eventually, our marriage suffers. So if you want to avoid this catastrophe, you have to be willing to maximize your love. The K.I.S.S. ~ Maximize your love! Now, when I'm speaking about how to maximize your love, this is NOT about controlling your spouse. Please hear that loud and clear. You can only control YOU!! You must be cautious how you look at marriage. Marriage is a commitment between two people, which requires two people to join together in a journey that is a two-way street. But somehow, you find a way to compromise when needed and show compassion throughout the entire process. SO-- How are you doing with that definition? Most of us would struggle. But that doesn't mean we throw in the towel and convert to our human ways of being selfish and indulging only in what benefits us as an individual, not as a couple. What does it look like to maximize your love?  <br />- Prioritize your relationship. <br />- Serve with compassion. <br />- Live for each other. <br /> PRAYER: Don't let the sun go down on the day without lifting up your spouse and holding him/her in the highest esteem. Steward your love well.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Couples cannot thrive together if they are trying to do life separately. Maximize your love. How long did your honeymoon phase last? You know, the one that your sweetheart could do no wrong. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   You might be lucky if it lasted longer than two years. But in reality, it was probably a lot shorter.  Life started to spin out of control (bills, career demands, friends, household duties, temptations, etc.), and all you could do is just put yourself in survival mode. If my spouse would just do this, in this manner, and repeat as necessary, life would be great. But as the months turn into years, you find out that what you thought marriage was supposed to be, was completely opposite of what it was. All you could do now is to stay in your lane and not upset the waters too much, or the boat would be tossed to sea. And that was an experience you dreaded. Why is it that we live our lives to minimize what matters in order to maximize what really doesn't? It becomes more self-serving and self-indulging that eventually, our marriage suffers. So if you want to avoid this catastrophe, you have to be willing to maximize your love. The K.I.S.S. ~ Maximize your love! Now, when I'm speaking about how to maximize your love, this is NOT about controlling your spouse. Please hear that loud and clear. You can only control YOU!! You must be cautious how you look at marriage. Marriage is a commitment between two people, which requires two people to join together in a journey that is a two-way street. But somehow, you find a way to compromise when needed and show compassion throughout the entire process. SO-- How are you doing with that definition? Most of us would struggle. But that doesn't mean we throw in the towel and convert to our human ways of being selfish and indulging only in what benefits us as an individual, not as a couple. What does it look like to maximize your love?  <br />- Prioritize your relationship. <br />- Serve with compassion. <br />- Live for each other. <br /> PRAYER: Don't let the sun go down on the day without lifting up your spouse and holding him/her in the highest esteem. Steward your love well.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Everything that you think you know about children can change in a moment. It's like playing Chutes and Ladders. Do you remember that game? Well, if not, go to a thrift store or Amazon and pick it up. It's a classic! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But in the game of Chutes and Ladders, the goal is to climb the Ladders to claim your treasure, all at the same time avoiding the Chutes where you slide back down and have to repeat some steps to hopefully land on a ladder to get the chance to climb and claim the treasure again. Chutes and Ladders are all too familiar to us parents. Right?!? At one point, we are flying high, understanding exactly what we are doing. Yet sooner, rather than later, we find ourselves lost, not knowing what to say or do. Is that not the walk of an everyday parent? Oh my!!! However, you don't have to feel defeated and lost. You can claim the treasure; it's just how you serve the treasure you're looking for. The K.I.S.S. ~ Serve the treasure you're looking for! The "treasure" are the traits you want your children to learn while under your care and supervision; they're the key values and morals to becoming who God designed you to be. So how can parents serve the treasure (meaning the trait) to "trick" the child of what awaits? To serve the treasure, you first need to identify the key values and morals that lead to becoming the person God designed you to be. Once you’ve done that, it’s time to find ways to intentionally implement these traits into your child’s life.  1. Model the behavior yourself - Children learn best by example, so make sure you are modeling the traits you want your child to learn. If you want your child to be kind, make a point to show kindness to others on a daily basis. Your child does what he/she sees. 2. Reinforce the positive - Reinforce good behavior every chance you get. When your child shows kindness or empathy, acknowledge it and let them know you’re proud of them. 3. Make it a daily habit - Consistency is key. Make a point to teach and reinforce good character traits on a daily basis. Over time, this will become a habit for your child. 4. Use stories and visuals - Use stories, books, and visual aids to help your child understand the importance of the traits you are trying to instill. For example, if you’re teaching your child about honesty, read a story about a character who learns the value of telling the truth. Then, what you are instilling in them isn't just coming from you. It's coming from another source that backs up what you have been modeling for them. 5. Create opportunities to practice - Give your child opportunities to practice the traits you are trying to teach. For example, if you’re teaching patience, give your child a puzzle to work on that will require patience and perseverance to complete. Your children will only rise to the level at which you invite them to excel. If your ceiling and floor are equal, your child is not going to have as great of a chance to soar. But if you set your floor and raise your ceiling, then your child will rise up to what they know is possible, even when it's impossible. Serving the treasure (the traits you want your child to learn) is all about intentional parenting. You can effectively teach your child the values and morals they need to become the person God designed them to be.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Regardless of your to-do list, it's time for a twist. You cannot be your best if you do not rest. Are you running on empty? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Too much of our days are spent running in circles, always playing catch-up. So why do so many feel as if they have mustard all over their face? Okay. Enough with the funnies. But I want to get your attention.  Rest is critical to your creative, clear, and concise communication throughout your day.  If you are running on empty, it's hard to keep going. The K.I.S.S. ~ REST! Rest not only helps us be more productive and creative during the day, but it also allows us to enjoy our lives. After all, it's difficult to make good decisions or come up with novel solutions when we are tired or stressed. It's challenging to be present when you can't smile or laugh. Rest. Clear your mind and alleviate stress. Give yourself the opportunity to recharge and disconnect from work, allowing you to reflect on your goals and actions. Rest so you can regain perspective, which can help reduce stress and anxiety. It's okay to take a break, and give yourself permission to rest. It's important to remember that you can't lead when you're crabby, and you can't make impactful decisions when you're tired. Rest. And remember this. Rest is more than relaxation and doing nothing. When you rest, you make a decision that will lead to you doing your best.   "Be present. Be incredible.

So why do so many feel as if they have mustard all over their face? Okay. Enough with the funnies. But I want to get your attention.  Rest is critical to your creative, clear, and concise communication throughout your day.  If you are running on empty, it's hard to keep going. The K.I.S.S. ~ REST! Rest not only helps us be more productive and creative during the day, but it also allows us to enjoy our lives. After all, it's difficult to make good decisions or come up with novel solutions when we are tired or stressed. It's challenging to be present when you can't smile or laugh. Rest.

One size does not fit all, but you can find the right size. The answer lies within. There is so much out there that we begin to cause our own confusion instead of looking inwardly as the expert. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   YES!!! You are the expert of your body. It can be challenging to find a balance in healthy living due to the abundance of diet trends that exist today. These diets often promote extreme or restrictive eating habits, which can be detrimental to both physical and mental health in the long run. That's the greatest reason why you need to pay attention to what your body tells you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Listen to what your body speaks! We are great at serving everyone else, but we don't take time to listen to our bodies. We miss what our bodies are trying to tell us. A fancy way of saying that is interoception. Interoception is a lesser-known sense that helps you understand and feel what's going on inside your body.  It's that sense of what’s going on in your body, and being in tune with it. Some of these senses are feeling hungry, full, hot, cold, or thirsty. When you have a hard time sensing them, it becomes a self-regulation challenge. Therefore, you just do what you "think" you're supposed to do with no facts or feelings to back it up, because you aren't sensing anything. This can be very discouraging to anyone wanting to change or better their lifestyle. Here are a few things to think about when it comes to fighting the diet trends and finding balance in your healthy living. 1. Avoid CONCRETE Restrictions<br /> <br /> Restricting food groups or drastically reducing calories can lead to deprivation and binge eating. Instead, aim to have a balanced and varied diet, including plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Allow yourself to enjoy the occasional indulgent treat to avoid feeling deprived. You know what you can handle. You know the status of your health overall, your body report card. <br /> <br /> 2. Listen to Your Body<br /> <br /> Every person's body has its unique needs, and these needs can change depending on various factors such as age, activity level, and stress levels. Try to tune into how your body reacts to different types of food and adjust your diet to meet its needs. Listen to your hunger cues, eat when you're hungry, stop when you're full, and strive to eat intuitively. 3. Intermittent Fasting<br /> <br /> When battling the diet trends, look to the "olden days" to shed some light. Our bodies have built-in fasting based on the seasons (spring, summer, fall, winter). Consider the seasonal foods that are available. All of it works together to create harmony in how you live. Depending on your metabolic flexibility, somewhere around a 14- to 18-hour overnight fast might be best for you. It can also help kickstart the production of ketones. Further, fasting can help you find a sweet spot for eating a balanced and nutritious diet. Keep in mind that none of this happens overnight. So give yourself time to experiment. Keep a log or journal of how you feel when trying new things.  You don't have to follow the diet trends. The only diet that matters is what works for YOU!!!   "Train for life.

Further, fasting can help you find a sweet spot for eating a balanced and nutritious diet. Keep in mind that none of this happens overnight. So give yourself time to experiment. Keep a log or journal of how you feel when trying new things.  You don't have to follow the diet trends. The only diet that matters is what works for YOU!!!   "Train for life.

Or the voice that screams you're not good enough? It's time to level the playing field. Silence the fear.

Truly, fear comes from the unknown. So if you're willing to make the unknown known, do you think the fear dissipates? The secret to overcoming fear is to take action. When you take action, you silence the fear. You break through the walls that hold you back and you create a path toward the life that you truly desire or the goal you're in search of. Yet, taking action can be difficult, especially when you're so used to staying in your comfort zone. Oh, how comfy the chair feels, only delaying the inevitable; nothing happening. You can get out from under the fear my  The K.I.S.S. ~ Silence the fear! We have become so comfortable with where we are, that we forget how to make it through the day. We forget how to push ourselves, how to challenge ourselves, and how to grow. But, growth happens outside of our comfort zone. When we step out of what we know, we allow ourselves to experience new things, to meet new people, and to learn new skills. Silence the fear. Break down those walls. It's time to take that first step toward the life that you want. Start small, but start. Take that first step toward your dreams. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo And then, watch as the walls fall down. You'll be amazed at what you're capable of achieving. Chaos may surround you, but it's tamed by your actions. Each step you take is one step closer to your goals. So, don't let fear hold you back any longer.

However, the timing seems to be the biggest question. Because who wants to rush what's not meant to be? Everyday living can lead us down paths that make us very tense or cause us to wander more; both of which can become the excuses where purpose and passion die. You are worth more than a casket six feet under. So why do you think less of yourself? Why do you hide under the covers wishing for the hurt and pain to go away? Why do you crumble at the thought of doing something different than what you're doing now? Why do you prefer your comfort zone versus your dream? You are made for more.  So how do you go from surviving to thriving? How do you ignite a flame from a spark? How do you see what you so badly want to believe? It's never too early to create your now!

But it does mean that you get to create with God; You get to create your now with Him.  CREATE YOUR NOW! Craft your now every day, Resembling God's blueprint for you in every way; Equip your purpose and passion with zeal Accelerating your life with impact to turn the wheel; Target the hearts which divinely interlaces, Encouraging the world with your gracious paces. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!! CHALLENGE: What part of CREATE do you need to step into? Where does your greatest excuse lie?

You are worth more than a casket six feet under. So why do you think less of yourself? Why do you hide under the covers wishing for the hurt and pain to go away? Why do you crumble at the thought of doing something different than what you're doing now? Why do you prefer your comfort zone versus your dream? You are made for more.  So how do you go from surviving to thriving? How do you ignite a flame from a spark? How do you see what you so badly want to believe? It's never too early to create your now! The K.I.S.S. ~ C.R.E.A.T.E. your now! God's an artist and so are you. And that doesn't mean you know how to draw a person like the Mona Lisa or paint a vibrant sunset in Hawaii. But it does mean that you get to create with God; You get to create your now with Him.  CREATE YOUR NOW! Craft your now every day, Resembling God's blueprint for you in every way; Equip your purpose and passion with zeal Accelerating your life with impact to turn the wheel; Target the hearts which divinely interlaces, Encouraging the world with your gracious paces. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!! CHALLENGE: What part of CREATE do you need to step into? Where does your greatest excuse lie? PRAYER: May your day be filled, not by your desires, but by God's heavenly purpose for your life.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But God breathed life into you. Not to shame what others lack, but to fulfill what He sees as your daily comeback. Life doesn't have to be about always getting what you want. It can encompass the agony of defeat and the thrill of victory all in the same moment.  However, if you don't get your attitude out of the way of God's glory, you're gonna miss what He has in store for you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be kind and compassionate! Too often, we equate our actions to what we think we deserve. But don't you think everyone deserves to be respected, and treated kindly with a heart of compassion? Let's not get entangled with how the world responds to self-indulging demands.  Lean into how God calls you to live out your every day. Make your actions meet the goal of putting more smiles on faces, rather than always trying to be number one in all places.  God created you not to be destructive in words or actions. In fact, His instruction is to "be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. (Ephesians 4:32)" CHALLENGE: What can you do differently today that will impact tomorrow in a way that touches a heart and shows God's love? Most of what Jesus did when He walked on Earth was always seeking opportunities to serve, to show kindness and compassion.  You can be the hands and feet of Jesus by the actions you exhibit and the words you speak. PRAYER: May your heart resemble the love God has for you. May your words bring healing to others' hurting souls, and be a powerful reminder that this too shall pass. May kindness and compassion lead your everyday conversations and actions.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But are you keeping a secret and building the great wall?  Many couples seem to have everything going for them: a loving partner, stable finances, a beautiful home, and gorgeous kids. But deep inside, their marriage may not be as perfect as it seems. They may be building "the great wall" brick by brick - a symbolic representation of everything they wish was different in their relationship. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   How great is your marriage? Now, please be extremely honest with yourself. This isn't about who is better or if your neighbor has a better relationship than you. What matters is your relationship with your spouse. And if you are struggling, then it starts with honestly looking at where you are to know what you need to do.  <br />- Are you and your spouse struggling with communication? <br />- Are there issues that continue to resurface time and time again? <br />- Is there something that you wish your spouse would do differently, but don't know how to bring it up? <br /> If any of this sounds a little too familiar, don't despair! You can tear down the great wall and strengthen your relationship. The K.I.S.S. ~ Tear down the great wall! If you have been building it up, the only way to tear it down is one brick at a time. 1. Listen to Each Other You must practice active listening. Take the time to listen to your spouse, without judgment, and give them the space to share their feelings, concerns, and experiences. Remember, listening is not just about hearing the words that your spouse is saying, but also acknowledging their emotions and validating their feelings. Now, you don't have to agree with their feelings, but their feelings do need to be acknowledged. And when you truly listen to your spouse, they gonna feel heard and understood, which strengthens your bond and builds trust. With each conversation you actively listen to, it's one brick removed from the great wall. 2. Increase Physical Touch Let me just say this. Technology has destroyed intimacy. Everything is a text which becomes a "pretend" feeling that is justified and expressed via an emoji. Seriously?!? Physical touch is crucial in any relationship, but especially in marriage. It's a way to connect on a deeper level, express affection, and communicate love. Try to increase the physical touch you give your spouse throughout the day. It can be a simple hug, holding hands, or a kiss on the cheek. Increasing the amount of touch in your relationship creates a feeling of closeness and boosts your spouse's mood. And when you are feeling "good", another brick comes down from the great wall. 3. Practice Gratitude Gratitude is an excellent way to strengthen your relationship and overcome the great wall. Because gratitude softens the heart and makes it more palpable to "feel" and empathize. Sometimes our marriages need more empathy. Just because you are extra strong in something doesn't mean that your spouse is built emotionally and psychologically as you. Each of you are unique individuals; fearfully and wonderfully made. So practice gratitude by thanking your spouse for the little things they do every day. It could be making breakfast, helping with a project, or just being there when you need them. By acknowledging their efforts, you build an environment of appreciation and respect, strengthening your relationship and increasing intimacy. The great wall of marriage is something that many couples face. But unfortunately, it's also the greatest secret kept. So drop the secrets. The great wall doesn't have to be the end of your marriage.  You have the opportunity every day to impact your spouse in a special way. You can either build the great wall, or build up your spouse and let the wall fall!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But are you keeping a secret and building the great wall?  Many couples seem to have everything going for them: a loving partner, stable finances, a beautiful home, and gorgeous kids. But deep inside, their marriage may not be as perfect as it seems. They may be building "the great wall" brick by brick - a symbolic representation of everything they wish was different in their relationship. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   How great is your marriage? Now, please be extremely honest with yourself. This isn't about who is better or if your neighbor has a better relationship than you. What matters is your relationship with your spouse. And if you are struggling, then it starts with honestly looking at where you are to know what you need to do.  <br />- Are you and your spouse struggling with communication? <br />- Are there issues that continue to resurface time and time again? <br />- Is there something that you wish your spouse would do differently, but don't know how to bring it up? <br /> If any of this sounds a little too familiar, don't despair! You can tear down the great wall and strengthen your relationship. The K.I.S.S. ~ Tear down the great wall! If you have been building it up, the only way to tear it down is one brick at a time. 1. Listen to Each Other You must practice active listening. Take the time to listen to your spouse, without judgment, and give them the space to share their feelings, concerns, and experiences. Remember, listening is not just about hearing the words that your spouse is saying, but also acknowledging their emotions and validating their feelings. Now, you don't have to agree with their feelings, but their feelings do need to be acknowledged. And when you truly listen to your spouse, they gonna feel heard and understood, which strengthens your bond and builds trust. With each conversation you actively listen to, it's one brick removed from the great wall. 2. Increase Physical Touch Let me just say this. Technology has destroyed intimacy. Everything is a text which becomes a "pretend" feeling that is justified and expressed via an emoji. Seriously?!? Physical touch is crucial in any relationship, but especially in marriage. It's a way to connect on a deeper level, express affection, and communicate love. Try to increase the physical touch you give your spouse throughout the day. It can be a simple hug, holding hands, or a kiss on the cheek. Increasing the amount of touch in your relationship creates a feeling of closeness and boosts your spouse's mood. And when you are feeling "good", another brick comes down from the great wall. 3. Practice Gratitude Gratitude is an excellent way to strengthen your relationship and overcome the great wall. Because gratitude softens the heart and makes it more palpable to "feel" and empathize. Sometimes our marriages need more empathy. Just because you are extra strong in something doesn't mean that your spouse is built emotionally and psychologically as you. Each of you are unique individuals; fearfully and wonderfully made. So practice gratitude by thanking your spouse for the little things they do every day. It could be making breakfast, helping with a project, or just being there when you need them. By acknowledging their efforts, you build an environment of appreciation and respect, strengthening your relationship and increasing intimacy. The great wall of marriage is something that many couples face. But unfortunately, it's also the greatest secret kept. So drop the secrets. The great wall doesn't have to be the end of your marriage.  You have the opportunity...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1310</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,conflict,couples,dedication,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,love,mindset,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/be9f99b15d4765543ad53985043a05a7.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3015 Don't Give Away Your Power</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3015-don-t-give-away-your-power--54090505</link><description><![CDATA[As parents, we are responsible for shaping our children's futures. Yet, with the constant barrage of social media, stages of life, and everyday stresses, staying focused on what really matters can be difficult. Don't give away your power. In today's world, it's more important than ever that parents take charge of their family's foundation, rather than giving away their power to society, the government, or any external forces. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   You get to lay the ground rules to build the foundation for your family. But as you know, this is not the easiest thing to accomplish. It takes consistency and a lot of determination to keep your eye on the ball, and your heart attached in the right places. Because when it comes to your kids, getting emotional is expected. And when our emotions are out of control, so are we. Don't give away your power. Lead in the dark. The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead in the D.A.R.K.! Now you are literally leading in the dark. But you are leading to the point where the influence doesn't affect you. Lead in the D.A.R.K.! DETERMINATION: The first step to taking charge of your family's foundation is to create a strong sense of purpose, and that takes determination. You get to determine what values you want to instill in your children, what kind of people you want them to grow up to be. Once you have a clear vision of who your family is, then you determine the vision that aligns with your family's purpose.<br /> <br /> ATTENTIVENESS: Next, creating a positive, supportive environment for your children is essential. This means paying attention to the media they consume, the friends they spend time with, and the activities they participate in. If your children spend too much time on social media or hanging out with negative influences, it's time to make changes. Instead, encourage them to spend time with positive role models, read more, participate in activities that build self-esteem, and invest in relationships that support their growth. You get to be attentive to what's happening in your four walls. RESTORATION: Another key to maintaining your family's foundation is to manage stress effectively. And this comes from restoration. It's no secret that life can be overwhelming at times, especially when you're trying to raise children. But studies have shown that chronic stress can have a negative impact on both physical and mental health, making it even more important to learn how to manage stress effectively. Some tips for reducing stress include setting aside time for self-care, practicing mindfulness techniques, and building a solid support network.<br /> <br /> KNOWLEDGEABLE: It's important to remember that you are the ultimate authority in your family. Now, society may try to tell you what you should or shouldn't do. But ultimately, you get to decide what values and beliefs are important to you and your family. And this means you must be knowledgeable about what you want for your family. Don't give away your power to external factors – instead, embrace your role as a parent and create the foundation for the family you want to build.<br /> <br /> Raising children in today's world can be a challenging task. But when you lead in the D.A.R.K., your heart can attach as much as your mind focuses on helping your children thrive. Don't give away your power – embrace it, and watch your family grow stronger every day.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It is a beacon of light that leads us to a brighter tomorrow. When life is tough, and the future is uncertain, wait with anticipation. Sometimes we rush what we need to wait on.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   "Hope is the thing with feathers, That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all." ~ Emily Dickinson These words written by Emily Dickinson signify that hope is an essential element that helps us cope with difficult situations. No matter how bleak the situation may seem, there is always a flicker of hope that can help you persevere. And when you are going through these tough times, hope can give you the motivation to move forward. Hope doesn't ask anything from you; only to be present with you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Wait with anticipation! I believe all of us can use wisdom in our life. "Walk with the wise and become wise." ~ Proverbs 13:20 And in the same chapter of Proverbs, it states: "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life." ~ Proverbs 13:12 That longing - that wait with anticipation - comes from hope.  You may not be in the season of life you wish you were, but that doesn't mean you throw in the towel and quit life altogether. You have to press on; wait with anticipation. And that waiting doesn't reflect on you doing nothing.  You are still active and performing at your best. You are still moving forward with the drive to greatness. Don't get sucked into negative thinking when things aren't going well. Focus on what's working. Focus on the positive so you can see the silver lining in your circumstances. Wait with anticipation. And then, fill your cup with gratitude. When life dishes out CRAP, you have got to dish up gratitude. You gotta slap CRAP around and show it who's boss.  Gratitude and thankfulness soften the heart so you can see the blessings in the messes. You are made for more. Hope is perched on your heart. It's up to you to wait with anticipation. When you feel like giving up, hold onto hope, and know that a brighter tomorrow is just around the corner. Remember, even in the darkest of times, hope springs eternal. PRAYER: In Romans 12:12, "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

It is a beacon of light that leads us to a brighter tomorrow. When life is tough, and the future is uncertain, wait with anticipation. Sometimes we rush what we need to wait on.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   "Hope is the thing with feathers, That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all." ~ Emily Dickinson These words written by Emily Dickinson signify that hope is an essential element that helps us cope with difficult situations. No matter how bleak the situation may seem, there is always a flicker of hope that can help you persevere. And when you are going through these tough times, hope can give you the motivation to move forward. Hope doesn't ask anything from you; only to be present with you. The K.I.S.S. ~ Wait with anticipation! I believe all of us can use wisdom in our life. "Walk with the wise and become wise." ~ Proverbs 13:20 And in the same chapter of Proverbs, it states: "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life." ~ Proverbs 13:12 That longing - that wait with anticipation - comes from hope.  You may not be in the season of life you wish you were, but that doesn't mean you throw in the towel and quit life altogether. You have to press on; wait with anticipation. And that waiting doesn't reflect on you doing nothing.  You are still active and performing at your best. You are still moving forward with the drive to greatness. Don't get sucked into negative thinking when things aren't going well. Focus on what's working. Focus on the positive so you can see the silver lining in your circumstances. Wait with anticipation. And then, fill your cup with gratitude. When life dishes out CRAP, you have got to dish up gratitude. You gotta slap CRAP around and show it who's boss.  Gratitude and thankfulness soften the heart so you can see the blessings in the messes. You are made for more. Hope is perched on your heart. It's up to you to wait with anticipation. When you feel like giving up, hold onto hope, and know that a brighter tomorrow is just around the corner. Remember, even in the darkest of times, hope springs eternal. PRAYER: In Romans 12:12, "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Otherwise, you'll get distracted and start looking for everyone else's needs.   Research Your Options:<br /> First, take the time to research your options. There are countless diets, exercise routines, and wellness trends out there, and it's essential to understand what each of them involves, the potential benefits and drawbacks, and how they may impact your lifestyle.

What works for a young athlete may not be practical for a middle-aged working parent. At the same time, what works for your best friend may not work for you. Get a consultation from a physician or a nutritionist—the experts.

This increases the chances of sticking to the routine and becoming a part of your every day; hence creating a lifestyle.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8  3 There is a time for everything,<br />     and a season for every activity under the heavens:   2     a time to be born and a time to die,<br />     a time to plant and a time to uproot,<br /> 3     a time to kill and a time to heal,<br />     a time to tear down and a time to build,<br /> 4     a time to weep and a time to laugh,<br />     a time to mourn and a time to dance,<br /> 5     a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,<br />     a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,<br /> 6     a time to search and a time to give up,<br />     a time to keep and a time to throw away,<br /> 7     a time to tear and a time to mend,<br />     a time to be silent and a time to speak,<br /> 8     a time to love and a time to hate,<br />     a time for war and a time for peace.  Even in the midst of something tragic, this too shall pass. YOU are not stuck in the posture of your situation permanently. Yes, in the moment, it can feel unbearable as if you are carrying your heart in your hands. But this too shall pass. The K.I.S.S. ~ Everything is temporary! When you stop to catch your breath in the moment, it forces your focus on what really matters; the essential and healthy stuff.  But there is that temptation to cling too tightly to material possessions, status symbols, or unhealthy relationships. if that becomes the breath of your every day, you may suffer more than necessary when they are no longer; taken away or prove to be transient. By acknowledging that everything is temporary, we can appreciate what you have without depending on it for your happiness or identity. That, my friend, is freeing in so many ways! Further, your gratitude and joy for what God has given you are extremely valuable and meaningful. But even this falls short.  However, because everything is temporary, one thing does not waver-- Your relationship and faith in God. As you face challenges, setbacks, or losses, you can remind yourself that they will not last forever. You can seek support, learn lessons, develop skills, and grow in character, knowing that these experiences are temporary but transformative. Yet, you can also trust in God's grace, power, and promises, knowing that His love endures forever, and His plans are for your well-being. So whether you're going through a rough patch or a great time, remember that everything is temporary. As the apostle Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 4:17-18: 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. PRAYER: May you have the wisdom and courage to live your every day in a way that honors God and embraces the temporary nature of life.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Maybe you have followed an expected path, but now your dreams are stirring your soul. Do right by you! Maybe you have a passion that burns brighter than your paycheck, but you don't know how to pursue it without risking your financial security. Maybe you feel stuck in your 9 to 5 job, but you don't know how to break free from the golden handcuffs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you have been tending to everyone else's dreams, but now it's your turn! Many people have dreams beyond their comfort zones, but few actually pursue them. Why? Because we fear rejection, failure, or judgment from others. We feel trapped by our own self-doubt and the expectations of society, family, friends, church or community. However, as much as you may care about what others think of you, YOU ultimately have to live with yourself. You are the only one who can fulfill your potential, express your creativity, and contribute your unique talents and strengths so you can impact the world that you touch. YOU are the only one who knows what truly makes you happy, fulfilled, and successful. Therefore, if you want to live out your dreams, you have to do right by you! The K.I.S.S. ~ Do right by you! You have to prioritize your personal growth, your purpose, and your passions. You have to make time, space, and resources for them, even if it means sacrificing some of your comfort, security, or approval. But understand this...doing right by you doesn't mean doing wrong by others. On the contrary, doing right by you means becoming your selfie, the best version of yourself, which can inspire and empower others. Doing right by you means setting an example of self-care, self-love, and self-respect, which can benefit your relationships, your work, and your community. "The reflection of yourself speaks volumes in the success path of your every day." ~ Kristianne Wargo Doing right by you also means surrounding yourself with the right people. <ul> <li>People who support, challenge, and encourage you.</li> <li>People who share your values, goals, and interests.</li> <li>People who can help you grow and learn.</li> <li>People who can celebrate your progress and offer constructive feedback.</li> </ul> Therefore, if you have a dream that calls to you, don't let anyone else silence it. Don't let anyone else dim your light or tell you that you are not enough. Don't let anyone else define your worth or your destiny. Instead, embrace your dream as a gift, a guide, and a goal. Believe in yourself and make preparation and a plan to achieve it, step by step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, doing right by you is not selfish or arrogant. Now, can it get there? Yes, you can always go to any extreme. YET -- When you do right by you, <ul> <li>It's a responsible and respectful way to honor your talent, your purpose, and your potential. What God has gifted you.</li> <li>It's a courageous and compassionate way to show up for yourself and for those you care about.</li> <li>It's a meaningful and fulfilling way to live out your dreams and make a positive impact in the world.</li> </ul> So, are you ready to do right by you? If so, start by asking yourself: <ol> <li>What do I really want?</li> <li>What am I willing to do to get it?</li> <li>What do I need to learn, practice, or overcome?</li> <li>Who can I reach out to for help or support?</li> <li>What can I celebrate and appreciate about myself, today and every day?</li> </ol> Then, keep asking, keep learning, and keep growing. You are worth it. You are capable. You are enough. You can do right by you. PRAYER:  May your creative self be encouraged by the thoughts and actions you take today. May the impossible let possibilities shine in the dark. This is your day to make your mark!   "Be present. Be incredible.

"The reflection of yourself speaks volumes in the success path of your every day." ~ Kristianne Wargo Doing right by you also means surrounding yourself with the right people. <ul> <li>People who support, challenge, and encourage you.</li> <li>People who share your values, goals, and interests.</li> <li>People who can help you grow and learn.</li> <li>People who can celebrate your progress and offer constructive feedback.</li> </ul> Therefore, if you have a dream that calls to you, don't let anyone else silence it. Don't let anyone else dim your light or tell you that you are not enough. Don't let anyone else define your worth or your destiny. Instead, embrace your dream as a gift, a guide, and a goal. Believe in yourself and make preparation and a plan to achieve it, step by step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, doing right by you is not selfish or arrogant. Now, can it get there? Yes, you can always go to any extreme. YET -- When you do right by you, <ul> <li>It's a responsible and respectful way to honor your talent, your purpose, and your potential. What God has gifted you.</li> <li>It's a courageous and compassionate way to show up for yourself and for those you care about.</li> <li>It's a meaningful and fulfilling way to live out your dreams and make a positive impact in the world.</li> </ul> So, are you ready to do right by you? If so, start by asking yourself: <ol> <li>What do I really want?</li> <li>What am I willing to do to get it?</li> <li>What do I need to learn, practice, or overcome?</li> <li>Who can I reach out to for help or support?</li> <li>What can I celebrate and appreciate about myself, today and every day?</li> </ol> Then, keep asking, keep learning, and keep growing. You are worth it. You are capable. You are enough. You can do right by you.

But if you keep running, making up becomes challenging. Are you a quiet quitter?  Your marriage is worth the fight. And that doesn't mean the yelling and screaming type of fight. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The fight that says, "I'm all in to figure out what's not working between us." But sometimes, that's not the way it turns out. You come home, and disagreements are on the rise. After a long day at work, who wants to face the crazy at home? All you want is calm and quiet. So that's where you go, to the calm and quiet. <ul> <li>The less you confront the problem, the less you fight.</li> <li>The less you complain about not having things the way you want them, the less whining you hear from your spouse.</li> <li>The less you speak, the less you have to defend.</li> </ul> This does not sound very appealing. But it is a survival skill when you want peace in the home. So how do you handle confrontations and disagreements? Are you one who pushes back and express openly? Or are you a quiet quitter who doesn't want to face any more disruptions to peace? Disagreements and confrontations are bound to happen if you are married for more than two weeks. And usually, it only takes 1-week max to have some mild fuss. No one wants to live that kind of life, let alone have that type of marriage. So how do stay clear of becoming a quiet quitter? You gotta be loud to be heard. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be L.O.U.D. to be heard! Now, I'm not condoning yelling and screaming here. This loud I'm referring to is a simple way to remember how you can impact your marriage by how you communicate. So how can you be L.O.U.D. to be heard? 1. L - Listen actively to your spouse's point of view. You have two ears for a reason. First off, if both spouses would listen more than they talk, then there would be fewer arguments because each person would be heard. But if neither have the opportunity to be heard, there's always a struggle. So a fight is inevitable. Don't live that life. Listen actively to your partner's point of view or perspective. 2. O - Open up and express your thoughts and feelings honestly. Nowadays, no one knows how to be honest with each other. Relationships are based on a circle with a cropped picture using filters, and stories that sound good overall. You can paint yourself however you want to appear to your spouse. Honesty is hard to come by from the beginning. So be different. Base your relationship on honesty so you can build trust over time. And be sure to include your thoughts and feelings as to what's happening. Brushing things under the rug just leads to bigger dust bunnies; they're called tumbleweeds. 3. U - Understand your spouse's perspective and take their feelings into consideration. If you want to be understood, then so does your sweetheart. Lean into what makes them tick. How they are feeling about circumstances. Communication goes both ways. 4. D - Demonstrate your love and commitment to the relationship through actions and compromises. Marriage is a two-way street, and if it's love, that means there are actions that reflect your love for your spouse. So let your heart shine! If you truly love someone, there are going to be compromises. Love is a verb. Keep your love alive by using actions to support your words. By being L.O.U.D. in this way, you can create open communication. That allows you as a couple to work together to build a stronger foundation for your marriage. PRAYER: May the struggles of life not collapse the love for your spouse. Take deep breaths, and remind yourself often of your spouse's beautiful heart. Life is not easy, but it can be joy-filled and wonderful as you continually build a strong foundation. And most of all, love your spouse, as Christ loves you!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But if you keep running, making up becomes challenging. Are you a quiet quitter?  Your marriage is worth the fight. And that doesn't mean the yelling and screaming type of fight. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The fight that says, "I'm all in to figure out what's not working between us." But sometimes, that's not the way it turns out. You come home, and disagreements are on the rise. After a long day at work, who wants to face the crazy at home? All you want is calm and quiet. So that's where you go, to the calm and quiet. <ul> <li>The less you confront the problem, the less you fight.</li> <li>The less you complain about not having things the way you want them, the less whining you hear from your spouse.</li> <li>The less you speak, the less you have to defend.</li> </ul> This does not sound very appealing. But it is a survival skill when you want peace in the home. So how do you handle confrontations and disagreements? Are you one who pushes back and express openly? Or are you a quiet quitter who doesn't want to face any more disruptions to peace? Disagreements and confrontations are bound to happen if you are married for more than two weeks. And usually, it only takes 1-week max to have some mild fuss. No one wants to live that kind of life, let alone have that type of marriage. So how do stay clear of becoming a quiet quitter? You gotta be loud to be heard. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be L.O.U.D. to be heard! Now, I'm not condoning yelling and screaming here. This loud I'm referring to is a simple way to remember how you can impact your marriage by how you communicate. So how can you be L.O.U.D. to be heard? 1. L - Listen actively to your spouse's point of view. You have two ears for a reason. First off, if both spouses would listen more than they talk, then there would be fewer arguments because each person would be heard. But if neither have the opportunity to be heard, there's always a struggle. So a fight is inevitable. Don't live that life. Listen actively to your partner's point of view or perspective. 2. O - Open up and express your thoughts and feelings honestly. Nowadays, no one knows how to be honest with each other. Relationships are based on a circle with a cropped picture using filters, and stories that sound good overall. You can paint yourself however you want to appear to your spouse. Honesty is hard to come by from the beginning. So be different. Base your relationship on honesty so you can build trust over time. And be sure to include your thoughts and feelings as to what's happening. Brushing things under the rug just leads to bigger dust bunnies; they're called tumbleweeds. 3. U - Understand your spouse's perspective and take their feelings into consideration. If you want to be understood, then so does your sweetheart. Lean into what makes them tick. How they are feeling about circumstances. Communication goes both ways. 4. D - Demonstrate your love and commitment to the relationship through actions and compromises. Marriage is a two-way street, and if it's love, that means there are actions that reflect your love for your spouse. So let your heart shine! If you truly love someone, there are going to be compromises. Love is a verb. Keep your love alive by using actions to support your words. By being L.O.U.D. in this way, you can create open communication. That allows you as a couple to work together to build a stronger foundation for your marriage. PRAYER: May the struggles of life not collapse the love for your spouse. Take deep breaths, and remind yourself often of your spouse's beautiful heart. Life is not easy, but it can be joy-filled and wonderful as you...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1060</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,conflict,couples,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,presence,purpose,reconciliation,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2be1da9b4786cdec158e93f9f809b29f.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>3008 Attention to Detail Matters</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3008-attention-to-detail-matters--54090496</link><description><![CDATA[When we focus on the details of our children’s lives, we can provide the backdrop to support them through their stages of development. Keep your eyes on the prize. Attention to detail matters. We cannot afford to leave any aspect of our children's growth unchecked or unmonitored. Attention to detail is especially important as children transition from one stage of life to another. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But we must make time to support our youth, our next generation. It is essential to take notice of their lives, interests, and ambitions. Because if we neglect to pay attention, we could miss out on valuable moments that shape and impact our children's future. The question is, how do we balance this attention without becoming too overbearing? "We train our children based on our reactions and responses to their actions." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, to say the least, we have a significant impact on our children's lives. It is our responsibility to guide and nurture them to become the best version of themselves. Here are a few tips to help support your child's development without becoming overbearing: The K.I.S.S. ~ Guide and nuture your children! And in order to do that you first must be present. 1. Be present in the moment. When spending time with your child, put aside distractions, such as mobile phones or work. Engage with them, listen to what they have to say, and be interested in their lives. It is crucial to establish a strong emotional connection. Also, presence is not just about when you are with them. Know who they are hanging out with, the activities they are doing on their phone, and what's happening in their room when home. Don't assume that "nothing" is happening. As a parent, you are always aware and alert. 2. Encourage independence. Letting our children take the lead in their lives helps them to develop independence, responsibility, and decision-making skills. But in order for them to do so, it requires them to earn your trust. Before you start saying "yes" to everything, be sure they are climbing the trust ladder. And then, as the develop and become older, allow them to choose their interests, hobbies, and passions. Keep in mind, through all these stages, attention to detail matters. 3. Create a balance. It is essential to maintain a healthy balance between engaging with our children's lives and giving them space to grow independently. Overbearing or micromanaging behavior could lead to negative consequences such as stress or burnout. So as they continue to climb the trust ladder, then you can loosen the reigns over time. And if you need to tighten the reigns, then do so. 4. Celebrate their achievements. Show your children that you are proud of them and who they are becoming. Yes, you can celebrate their efforts, encourage them to continue with the things they enjoy, and challenge them to learn new skills. But success does not have to be met in order for a celebration to occur.  Attention to detail matters when it comes to supporting the next generation. As parents, it is our responsibility to guide and nurture our children but not to act in an overbearing or controlling manner. Be present in their every day regardless of the age or stage of development. The goal here is to raise up children so they can go out and impact the world they touch in a positive and productive manner. Let’s show our children how valuable they are and support them in achieving their dreams. PRAYER: May you pack your patience daily and keep your mom-dar (or dad-dar) always on alert. Keep your eyes on the prize. Your children are diamonds in the rough. Love them where they're at.   "Be present. Be incredible.

We continuously grind, work, and hustle, only to find ourselves feeling completely drained. It's time to shift from exhausted to energized. This mental and physical exhaustion seems to be the go-to lately, usually resulting in negative attributes like anxiety, self-doubt, overwhelm, and fear. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   How tired are you living in that body of yours? So what if you could make some adjustments to turn your exhaustion into fuel that propels your forward? Now that's energy I think we all would agree to. With the right mindset and strategies, you can shift from exhausted to energized.   The K.I.S.S. ~ Shift from exhausted to energized! 1. Take care of yourself: When you're tired, you are more likely to reach for sugary snacks and caffeine rather than take care of your body. However, proper sleep, nutrition, and exercise can help increase energy levels and promote overall well-being. 2. Practice mindfulness: Meditation and mindfulness practices can help decrease anxiety levels and increase focus, allowing us to face challenges with greater clarity and purpose. Think about your breath. Put your hand on your heart, not just for the Star Spangled Banner and Pledge of Allegiance, but to feel your heart beat. 3. Connect to your passion: Often, a lack of passion for your work can lead to mental exhaustion. But, when you find your passion, you are inspired, energized, and motivated. Take the time to explore your interests and find what you love. 4. Connect with others: Building relationships with friends, family or colleagues can provide much-needed support, motivation, and inspiration. Highly social networks have been proven to lower stress levels and increase happiness. Gather together in person! 5. Trust in God: The Bible implores you to cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you (Psalms 55:22). When you walk by faith, you have hope. Hope cancels out exhaustion and leaves a spark, which provides strength and inner peace, even in the face of difficult situations. So take what's negative and kick it to the curb. All you have to say is, "Not today!"   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

We continuously grind, work, and hustle, only to find ourselves feeling completely drained. It's time to shift from exhausted to energized. This mental and physical exhaustion seems to be the go-to lately, usually resulting in negative attributes like anxiety, self-doubt, overwhelm, and fear. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   How tired are you living in that body of yours? So what if you could make some adjustments to turn your exhaustion into fuel that propels your forward? Now that's energy I think we all would agree to. With the right mindset and strategies, you can shift from exhausted to energized.   The K.I.S.S. ~ Shift from exhausted to energized! 1. Take care of yourself: When you're tired, you are more likely to reach for sugary snacks and caffeine rather than take care of your body. However, proper sleep, nutrition, and exercise can help increase energy levels and promote overall well-being. 2. Practice mindfulness: Meditation and mindfulness practices can help decrease anxiety levels and increase focus, allowing us to face challenges with greater clarity and purpose. Think about your breath. Put your hand on your heart, not just for the Star Spangled Banner and Pledge of Allegiance, but to feel your heart beat. 3. Connect to your passion: Often, a lack of passion for your work can lead to mental exhaustion. But, when you find your passion, you are inspired, energized, and motivated. Take the time to explore your interests and find what you love. 4. Connect with others: Building relationships with friends, family or colleagues can provide much-needed support, motivation, and inspiration. Highly social networks have been proven to lower stress levels and increase happiness. Gather together in person! 5. Trust in God: The Bible implores you to cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you (Psalms 55:22). When you walk by faith, you have hope. Hope cancels out exhaustion and leaves a spark, which provides strength and inner peace, even in the face of difficult situations. So take what's negative and kick it to the curb. All you have to say is, "Not today!"   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

This is particularly true in healthy living. So as we age, it's important to learn how to stay relevant. Our bodies change, and what worked for us in the past might no longer be effective. For example, losing weight might have been easy when we were young and had a fast metabolism, but as we age, it becomes more difficult. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Furthermore, we attempt more times than not to keep doing what we know because it worked in the past.  For some, that's great because it develops habits that are somewhat beneficial. But they don't help facilitate the changes, therefore causing your body to become stuck and less responsive to what you defined as healthy living years ago, maybe even decades ago. As we age, it is vital to our health and well-being to adapt to our stages of life. No longer are you a toddler. Thank goodness! Yet your stages of life can help to streamline what you need to change to match what you are lacking in your healthy living today. So, how do you move from the frustration of thinking you got it together to finding better choices for today's healthy living? You gotta create a progressive path that continues to develop your health goals.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Create a progressive path! Think about the progressive path as small strategic steps developing over time. EDUCATE -- First, it's important to acknowledge that what worked for you in the past might no longer be effective. Rather than feeling discouraged, embrace this as an opportunity to learn and grow. This is where you educate yourself. Look for reliable information about nutrition, sleep, and exercise. And then experiment with different approaches to find what works for your current situation. Consider science advancements. There might be something that's available now that wasn't ten years ago that might really make a difference for you. It could be medication, supplements, or various ways of eating or working out.  It comes down to not guessing, but learning. So educate yourself. SUSTAIN -- It's easy to fall into the trap of crash diets or extreme exercise routines, but these are rarely sustainable in the long term. Instead, aim for small, incremental changes, based on what you've learned, the newest of the new,  that you can realistically maintain over time. This might mean making healthier food choices or increasing your daily steps, rather than trying to overhaul your entire lifestyle overnight. Maybe it's getting a new mattress. Sleep affects your well-being. Don't leave any stone unturned. Learn so you can sustain. SUPPORT -- You've gotta have support. Making changes is always easier when you have a community to support you. This might be a group of friends who are also focused on improving their health, or it might be a professional such as a personal trainer or nutritionist. Having someone to hold you accountable and cheer you on can make all the difference. And keep in mind that it doesn't have to be a large group. It might be one or two or three people. But this is a special group where you feel extremely comfortable and safe, and can be blunt honest not just with them, but with yourself. BONUS -- don't forget to celebrate the little successes along the way. The little things do matter. Every small step towards your health goals is an achievement, "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Celebrate more than you hound yourself. Sometimes finding that balance is stopping the self-degrading comments in your head. Remember, change is a constant. So make sure what you do for healthy living is relevant. Life is not about doing everything perfectly. It's about finding a sustainable path toward your goals that works for you, at every stage of your life. By approaching your health and wellness with an open mind and creating your now, you'll be well on your way to reaching your goals and living your best life.   "Train for life.

Instead, use it as an opportunity to become something better. You have the power to overcome adversity and specialize in the impossible. You might feel like giving up or that the world is against you. But what if every obstacle was an opportunity to become better?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It’s important to remember that being perfect or getting everything right is not the goal. Life is messy and unpredictable, but that doesn't mean you should give up on achieving your goals. Instead, focus on turning stumbling blocks into stepping stones. Think about it, throughout history, there have been countless individuals who have overcome adversity to achieve greatness. Take Oprah Winfrey, who overcame poverty, sexual abuse, and discrimination to become one of the most influential people on the planet. Or Stephen Hawking, who was diagnosed with a rare form of motor-neuron disease (ALS) in his early 20s and went on to become one of the most brilliant minds in modern physics. These people were able to specialize in the impossible by embracing their challenges, working hard, and never giving up. And remember, it's not about their level of success; just how they dealt with what they were handed in life. So today, don't make it about three decades from now. Start by setting small, achievable goals for yourself. Maybe it’s learning a new skill, starting a new hobby, or reaching out to someone you’ve lost touch with. Focus on what you can control and take one small step toward your goal each day. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Specialize in the impossible! Oh, and keep this in mind. Failure is not the end. It is, however, a necessary step on the journey to your success. So embrace the lessons that come with failure, adjust your plan, and keep moving forward. In essence, when you embrace adversity, it allows you to reframe negative experiences as opportunities for growth. Not everything bad has to be bad long-term. Yes, failure is not fun, and it stings a little. But give yourself a headstart every day by acknowledging what you can control and your ability to achieve greatness no matter what obstacles you face. Remember, you are capable of amazing things. So when life throws you a curveball, don’t give up. Instead, use it as an opportunity to become something better. Believe in yourself and your ability to specialize in the impossible.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Instead, use it as an opportunity to become something better. You have the power to overcome adversity and specialize in the impossible. You might feel like giving up or that the world is against you. But what if every obstacle was an opportunity to become better?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It’s important to remember that being perfect or getting everything right is not the goal. Life is messy and unpredictable, but that doesn't mean you should give up on achieving your goals. Instead, focus on turning stumbling blocks into stepping stones. Think about it, throughout history, there have been countless individuals who have overcome adversity to achieve greatness. Take Oprah Winfrey, who overcame poverty, sexual abuse, and discrimination to become one of the most influential people on the planet. Or Stephen Hawking, who was diagnosed with a rare form of motor-neuron disease (ALS) in his early 20s and went on to become one of the most brilliant minds in modern physics. These people were able to specialize in the impossible by embracing their challenges, working hard, and never giving up. And remember, it's not about their level of success; just how they dealt with what they were handed in life. So today, don't make it about three decades from now. Start by setting small, achievable goals for yourself. Maybe it’s learning a new skill, starting a new hobby, or reaching out to someone you’ve lost touch with. Focus on what you can control and take one small step toward your goal each day. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Specialize in the impossible! Oh, and keep this in mind. Failure is not the end. It is, however, a necessary step on the journey to your success. So embrace the lessons that come with failure, adjust your plan, and keep moving forward. In essence, when you embrace adversity, it allows you to reframe negative experiences as opportunities for growth. Not everything bad has to be bad long-term. Yes, failure is not fun, and it stings a little. But give yourself a headstart every day by acknowledging what you can control and your ability to achieve greatness no matter what obstacles you face. Remember, you are capable of amazing things. So when life throws you a curveball, don’t give up. Instead, use it as an opportunity to become something better. Believe in yourself and your ability to specialize in the impossible.   "Be present. Be incredible.

The power of differences makes the world a better place. Let's work together to impact the world we touch, not in competition or comparison. As humans, we often find ourselves in a constant state of comparison - comparing ourselves to those around us, wishing we were different, and striving to fit in. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   And in that striving, we become trapped in the melody of comparison and constant competition, always trying to be better, do better, and look better. However, what we fail to see is that our uniqueness and individuality are powerful tools for making the world a better place. So why fight what is a blessing? We are all created with a purpose, and our differences enable us to contribute uniquely to the world. Our differences allow us to bring a wide range of perspectives, experiences, and ideas, providing diversity that fosters growth and innovation in society. So why fight what is a blessing? Use the power of differences to enhance the world you touch. The K.I.S.S. ~ Use the power of difference to enhance the world you touch! Don't blame others for what you can control. Your behavior is determined by your actions, all of which you control.  You might enjoy the escape of using someone else's successes or failures to become your excuses for what you do or don't do. So how can you utilize your differences to impact the world you touch, all the while building up others? Accept yourself for who you are. When you open yourself up to the possibility of using your unique talents, gifts, and ideas to the table, it levels the playing field; both you and others are valuable. And in doing so, you foster an environment where others can thrive as well. Accepting yourself and your differences leads to a level of self-respect and self-love that is necessary for making the world a better place.  Embrace who you are. Take time to identify your strengths, talents, and unique personality traits. Write them down and make a conscious effort to focus on these positive attributes. What can you do to utilize them more? How can they be more of an asset and not a distraction? You are different for a reason! so embrace who you are. Celebrate others' differences. Surround yourself with individuals who celebrate their differences and encourage others to do the same. These individuals are like your guards and truthtellers in your life that will inspire you and challenge you to grow in ways that you may not have thought possible. Remember that comparison holds no power when you believe in yourself and who you are. Trust in your journey and have faith that you are exactly where you are supposed to be. It's no accident that you're here listening to me on this podcast. So take it to heart. Your uniqueness is a bonus in making the world a better place, so embrace it, own it, and let your light shine!

Every rose has its thorn, but through Christ, we can experience the pleasure and passion of God, even in the midst of pain. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?

He is risen indeed.  The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of the Christian faith. It is the very reason believers have hope and an assurance of eternal life. However, the benefits of Christ's death and resurrection extend here on earth. In John 10:10, Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." This fullness of life is experienced here on earth, and it is one of the true blessings that come from the death and resurrection of Christ. However, you also know that life isn't fair; the roller coaster of life. But even amongst the pain, there is pleasure and a deep passion toward you from God. As you know, pain is a reality of life, whether it be physical, emotional, or spiritual. Christ understands the pain we experience because he himself suffered through it. Isaiah 53:3 ~ He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Yet, through His death on the cross, He not only bore the weight of your sins, but He also took your pain upon Himself. 1 Peter 2:24 says, "He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed." This healing includes physical and emotional healing, as well as spiritual healing. The K.I.S.S. ~ Every rose has its thorn! But then, on the opposite side of pain lies pleasure. And that pleasure comes from an indescribable relationship with Christ. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 4:7 But I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy. (John 16:22) This pleasure is based not on earthly circumstances, but on the hope and assurance we have in Jesus Christ. As Romans 8:38-39 says, "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Now as you know, there are trials and tribulations here on earth, but there is also beauty that's indescribable. And that beauty is expressed in the passion God has for you, for His people made evident through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ. "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." ~ John 3:16 This passion is not just focused on our eternal destination, but also on our daily lives. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. ~ Jeremiah 29:11 He has a plan and purpose for you (Jeremiah 29:11) and desires for you to experience a meaningful and fulfilling life. The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ serves as a powerful reminder that no matter how difficult life can get, there is hope available in Him. As Christians, it’s important for us to remember that the path to redemption isn’t easy; just like a rose with its thorns, it takes courage and strength from within to face our trials with faith. But because Jesus died for our sins, we know that no matter what troubles come our way – whether spiritual or physical – there will always be a way out if we trust in Him alone. So look at the beautiful rose He gave you in your mind. It serves as a visual representation of how passionate God is about each one of His children; so passionate that He was willing to put Himself through unimaginable pain for your sake, even though He knew what awaited Him at Calvary’s cross. Every rose has its thorn (the pain when your finger is pricked), but it also presents a pleasure of comfort and grace that goes beyond your understanding. The passion God has for you is an unimaginable love by your Heavenly Father. He is risen. He is risen indeed. PRAYER: “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.” ~ Numbers 6:24-26   "Be present.

In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?

He is risen indeed.  The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of the Christian faith. It is the very reason believers have hope and an assurance of eternal life. However, the benefits of Christ's death and resurrection extend here on earth. In John 10:10, Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." This fullness of life is experienced here on earth, and it is one of the true blessings that come from the death and resurrection of Christ.

The glory of the resurrection amplifies the beauty of marriage. At its core, marriage is a reflection of the relationship between God and His people, and at its highest form, a marriage can be an expression of the love between Christ and His bride - the Church. Therefore, understanding how the resurrection impacts our marriages gives us an unparalleled appreciation for this sacred union. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Let's start with the power of sacrificial love. In John 15:13, Jesus says, "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends." Jesus' sacrifice on the cross is the ultimate example of sacrificial love. Sacrificial love means putting others before yourself. When we practice sacrificial love in our marriages, we put our spouse's needs above our own. We think about what our spouse needs, even when it may not be what we want. We give and serve our spouse sacrificially, without expecting anything in return. Next, let's talk about forgiveness. In Ephesians 4:32, it says, "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Forgiveness is essential in any relationship, but especially in a marriage. When we forgive our spouse, we let go of the past hurts and move forward. Forgiveness opens the door for love and trust to grow in any marriage. If we want our marriage to be strong and meaningful, we need to learn to forgive our spouse, just as Christ forgave us. Hope is another essential component of a strong marriage. In Hebrews 6:19, it says, "We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure." Hope is like an anchor that keeps us grounded when the winds of life threaten to toss us about. When the road ahead looks difficult, uncertain, or even scary, it's hope that keeps us moving forward. When we have hope, we can face any challenge that comes our way. In a marriage, we need hope to believe that our relationship can weather any storm. The K.I.S.S. ~ The beauty of marriage! Finally, let's talk about faith. In Hebrews 11:1, it says, "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." Faith is trusting in something that we cannot see or touch. It's believing that God has a plan for our lives and our marriages, even when we can't see it. Faith is what binds our relationships together. Trusting God and believing that He is on our side gives us hope and comfort when life gets tough. When we have faith in our marriage, we believe that our spouse will stay committed to the relationship, even during the most challenging times. The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus hold vital lessons for couples looking to build a strong and healthy marriage. So, what does this all mean for our marriages? It means putting sacrificial love into practice by being a servant to our spouse, understand from a biblical perspective. It means forgiving our spouses when they make mistakes. It means having hope for our future together, even when things look difficult. And it means having faith in God and His plan for our marriage. You see, marriage is sacred. We have an opportunity to create something that is eternal and everlasting. The power of sacred relationships is that they can have an impact that lasts for generations to come. When we prioritize these values in our marriage, we build a relationship that's based on love, respect, and trust that stands the test of time. And when we put these biblical principles into practice in our marriages, we create a legacy of love and commitment that will be remembered for years to come. Commit to building stronger and more meaningful marriages that bring glory to God. PRAYER: May the power of the resurrection strengthen and bless your marriage today and always.   "Be present.

In the age of social media, love is often measured in terms of likes, comments, followers, and subscribers. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Children, especially teenagers, place a significant amount of importance on their online presence and the content that they curate. They equate social media reactions with appreciation, validation, and even love. In many ways, this shift in how we measure love has made it more challenging for parents to teach their children the true meaning of love. Loved beyond likes and followers. As we know, love is a complex emotion that requires patience, kindness, and sacrifice. True love is the kind that is unconditional; the type that we show to our family and friends regardless of circumstances. It’s a deep and abiding feeling that transcends physical attraction, financial wealth, or social status. But, as parents, how can we teach this kind of love to our children?  This is Passion Week when we celebrate Easter. The Bible tells us in John 3:16 that "For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life." This verse shows that God's love for humanity is so profound that He was willing to sacrifice His son, Jesus Christ, to save us from our sins.  Now, don't you think that love goes beyond likes and followers? Of course! And that's why Easter is a perfect opportunity for us to share not only God's love with them, but how real love looks. You see, Jesus willingly gave His life for us, suffering and dying on the cross, to pay the price for our sins. This shows us how far God's love extends and the lengths He was willing to go to show us His love. Now let us not forget the resurrection of Jesus to explain how love triumphs over death. Jesus didn't remain in the grave, because on the third day, He rose from the dead, proving that He had conquered death and sin.  God's love is stronger than anything else in this world. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love beyond likes and followers! How you love your child goes beyond likes and followers.  Create an open and safe environment where kids can share their feelings, opinions, and doubts. Be sure to take time to listen actively and actively respond with empathy, understanding, and guidance. This teaches children how to communicate with others honestly and with love. Model appropriate behaviors demonstrating love and respect. Children look up to their parents and follow their examples, so it's important to set high standards and be consistent in our actions. Little eyes are watching. Teach children to value genuine relationships over superficial ones. Encourage them to invest their time and resources in nurturing friendships that are based on mutual respect and common interests, rather than focusing on building their online image or receiving social media validation. This will teach children the value of authentic connections and how to recognize true love. However, when life gets a little crazy, and you are drifting into another season, be sure to teach about forgiveness. Love is only as great as it is to forgive. In Romans 5:8, it says that "while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." This means that God loved us before we even loved Him back, and He forgives us even though we don't deserve it. Love is sacrificial, forgiving, and triumphant. When you nurture your relationship with your children to see how God showed us how to love, that is the best gift you can give. No more focusing on likes and followers. See your child's heart as God sees you! Many blessings this Easter season. PRAYER: May the Lord bless your love for your children.   "Be present.

If you want to take healthy living to the next level, then dive into how your gut affects your fitness. It will change your world! Maintaining good gut health has become a hot topic in recent years, with increasing research suggesting that a healthy gut is essential for overall well-being, including its potential impact on exercise performance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Your gut, also known as the gastrointestinal tract, is a complex system of organs responsible for digestion, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of waste. But did you know that the health of your gut can also affect your exercise routine? Emerging scientific research suggests that there is a strong connection between gut health and exercise performance. Several studies have shown that the composition and diversity of gut microbes, also known as the gut microbiota, can impact various aspects of exercise performance, such as endurance, strength, and recovery. There have even been studies in mice in how the good bacteria is better, and the mice are more in the mood to exercise. Who would have thought that the health of your gut plays a role in your motivation to not only eat well, but to exercise too? For example, a study published in the journal "Medicine &amp; Science in Sports &amp; Exercise" found that athletes with a more diverse gut microbiota had better endurance performance compared to those with a less diverse gut microbiota. Another study published in the journal "Frontiers in Physiology" showed that supplementing with certain probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria for the gut, improved running performance and reduced markers of inflammation in athletes. Furthermore, research also suggests that gut health can affect other factors that are important for exercise performance, such as nutrient absorption, immune function, and inflammation. A healthy gut can help facilitate the absorption of nutrients, such as carbohydrates and proteins, which are essential for providing energy and aiding in muscle recovery after exercise. Additionally, balanced gut microbiota can help modulate immune function and reduce inflammation, which can impact exercise-induced muscle damage and recovery. So what are you waiting for? Get to know your gut! The K.I.S.S. ~ Get to know your gut! You can create a balanced gut to optimize your health and your workouts! So let's get started.            <br />-  Eat a Healthy and Balanced Diet: A diet rich in fiber, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats can help promote a diverse and balanced gut microbiota. Avoid excessive intake of processed foods, sugary foods, and unhealthy fats, as they can disrupt the gut microbiota and promote inflammation.  <br />-  Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration is crucial for maintaining a healthy gut. Drink enough water throughout the day, especially before and after exercise, to support digestion and absorption of nutrients.  <br />-  Consider Probiotics and Prebiotics: Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that can help restore and maintain healthy gut microbiota. They can be found in fermented foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi, or by taking supplements. Prebiotics, on the other hand, are non-digestible fibers that serve as food for probiotics, helping them thrive in the gut. Good sources of prebiotics include garlic, onion, asparagus, and bananas.  <br />-  Manage Stress: Chronic stress can disrupt the gut microbiota and affect gut health. Find ways to manage stress, such as practicing relaxation techniques, getting enough sleep, and engaging in regular physical activity, like yoga or meditation.  <br />-  Gradually Increase Exercise Intensity: Intense exercise can impact the gut by increasing gut permeability, leading to potential gut discomfort or issues. Gradually increasing exercise intensity and duration can help the gut adapt to the changes and reduce the risk of gut-related issues during exercise.  <br />-  Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to how your gut feels before, during, and after exercise. If you notice any discomfort, such as bloating, cramping, or diarrhea, adjust your exercise routine accordingly. It's important to listen to your body and prioritize gut health to ensure that exercise remains enjoyable and beneficial.  <br />                 <br />-  Take Care of Your Gut Post-Exercise: After a workout, it's essential to prioritize post-workout nutrition and recovery. Consuming a balanced meal or snack with adequate carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats can help replenish lost nutrients and support muscle recovery. Including gut-friendly foods such as probiotics and prebiotics in your post-workout meal can further support gut health.   <br />-  Consult with a Healthcare Professional: If you have persistent gut issues or concerns related to exercise and gut health, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional, such as a registered dietitian, a naturopath, or a gastroenterologist. They can provide personalized recommendations and guidance tailored to your specific needs and health status.  <br /> You can create a balanced gut that supports your fitness regimen. Maintaining a healthy gut is crucial for optimizing exercise performance and overall well-being. As you can tell, scientific research suggests that gut health and exercise are closely interconnected, with the gut microbiota playing a significant role in various aspects of exercise performance. When you're exercising, be sure to prioritize gut health, so you can achieve your fitness goals and improve your overall health and well-being.              "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't lose sight of what matters. Buckle up,  and learn how to do what's best for you. Just as quickly as the weather changes, so do our days; the ups and downs of the roller coaster that you don't even have to stand in line for.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But the reality is that we are weighted down by the responsibilities of the world around us.  This past weekend was a little crazy for us. My husband is changing jobs and opening up his private business, which required moving and getting the whole family to chip in. We did it at the cost of me not showing up here for two days. But let me tell you, you were always on my mind. Of course, though, you know how this gets me thinking. We all fall into these unplanned actions that cause us to drop one thing for another. And then it because a spiral event of whether we will ever get back on track. You don't have to feel guilty for doing what's best for you. However, there can be a learning curve. Create the recipe that works FOR you! The K.I.S.S. ~ Create the recipe of what's best for you! This simply means how you can get back on track without losing sight of what matters in doing what's best for you. Step 1: Take inventory of the season of life you're in. Right now– What are your priorities, goals, and dreams? Are you happy with the direction your life is headed in? If not, what changes do you need to make to get back on track? It's important to be honest with yourself and acknowledge the things that are no longer serving you or bringing you happiness. You've gotta look at your schedule as to what is important in the present moment. Step 2: Make a plan Once you have a clear understanding of your priorities and goals, it's time to make a plan. What steps do you need to take to achieve your goals? What changes do you need to make in your life to align with your priorities? What do you need to give up, even for a brief moment? It's important to break down your goals into manageable steps so that you don't get overwhelmed and give up. Create a timeline and hold yourself accountable for following through on your plan. Step 3: Take action The final step towards doing what's best for you is to take action. This is often the hardest step because it requires us to step outside of our comfort zones and take risks. However, nothing changes if we don't take action. Start small and work your way up. Celebrate your wins along the way, and don't be too hard on yourself if you experience setbacks or obstacles. Remember, doing what's best for you is a journey, not a destination. And this can happen at any time. Use these skills to create your now; a strategy that will take you from overwhelmed to overcomer. PRAYER: May the hiccups of your every day not cloud your presence of today. What you do matters to God, to your family, to your friends, and to yourself. Life is not going to be easy, but it's always beautiful. Look to God, who gave you the sparks, and let it continue to ring loudly in your heart.   "Be present. Be incredible.

You must be invested in their lives to understand and connect with them. Don't let busyness steal your children. Knock, knock, who's there? As we know it, with busy schedules and the rise of social media, it's challenging to find the time and opportunity to do know your children. That's why it's vitally important to be intentional and make a conscious effort to connect with your children. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Statistics show that there is a significant communication gap between teens and their parents. According to a survey by Common Sense Media, only 30% of teens said they talk to their parents about social media, and just 18% of parents feel knowledgeable about social media. Additionally, a study by Pew Research Center found that teens are more likely to turn to their friends for advice and support rather than their parents. As a parent, one of the most important things you can do is get to know your children. Parenting is not just about providing for their basic needs, but also about understanding and connecting with them. However, with busy schedules and the rise of social media, it can be challenging to find the time and opportunity to do so. That's why it's important to be intentional and make a conscious effort to connect with your children. Statistics show that there is a significant communication gap between teens and their parents. According to a survey by Common Sense Media, only 30% of teens said they talk to their parents about social media, and just 18% of parents feel knowledgeable about social media. Additionally, a study by Pew Research Center found that teens are more likely to turn to their friends for advice and support rather than their parents. So, how can you bridge this communication gap, really connect with your children, and get to know them? The answer is simple: knock, knock, who's there? The K.I.S.S. ~ Knock, knock, who's there? Proverbs 22:6: "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." Parents have to find the balance of what they want in their family and start very early. And keep in mind, and I've said this before, we are not to be their friends; we are to parent - raising them to be productive adults so they can go out and impact the world they touch. That means saying no more than yes. That means disciplining them when it's not popular with their friends' parents.  Approval is not the problem; taking action is!  <br />- Start by asking open-ended questions that invite conversation, such as "How was your day?" or "What did you enjoy doing today?" Avoid yes-or-no questions that can lead to a dead end. Ensure you listen actively, giving them your full attention and showing empathy for their experiences. <br />- Find shared interests. Participating in activities they enjoy, such as playing video games or going to the movies, can help you bond and build trust. Additionally, setting aside time for family activities, such as game nights or outings, can provide an opportunity for quality time and strengthen your relationship. <br />- Be where your children hang out. Know and be aware of their online activity and social media usage. While social media can be a valuable tool for connecting with friends and staying informed. But it can also be a source of negative influence and harmful content. Encourage your children to share their online experiences with you, and educate them about safe online behavior and the importance of privacy. <br /> We are to provide not only for our children's physical needs but also their spiritual and emotional needs. As parents, we are called to teach and guide our children, which requires getting to know them and understanding their unique needs and personalities. Ephesians 6:4: "Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." We are to train up and teach our children! That's our job description as parents. CHALLENGE: Are you ready to be who your child needs? And if so, where do you need to start? PRAYER: May the hard days of parenting be prosperous for your child in the future. Hold onto God closely as you navigate these unchartered waters. Be refreshed in the evenings as you lie down, so your heart can handle the challenging days before you. Your children deserve to be loved deeper and wider. Give them this opportunity by raising them up by the Lord's standards, not your busyness.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Additionally, setting aside time for family activities, such as game nights or outings, can provide an opportunity for quality time and strengthen your relationship. <br />- Be where your children hang out. Know and be aware of their online activity and social media usage. While social media can be a valuable tool for connecting with friends and staying informed. But it can also be a source of negative influence and harmful content. Encourage your children to share their online experiences with you, and educate them about safe online behavior and the importance of privacy. <br /> We are to provide not only for our children's physical needs but also their spiritual and emotional needs.

Rest is not a luxury, but a necessity. It’s essential for your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   In fact, God commands us to rest. In Exodus 20:8-10, it says, “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates.” God knows that you need rest. He created you with a need for it. Because when you rest, you allow your body to recharge and rejuvenate. You give yourself the opportunity to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with God. You give your mind a break from the constant stimulation and allow yourself to simply BE. The K.I.S.S. ~ Loiter in rest! But rest doesn’t just benefit you physically and mentally. It also has spiritual benefits. When you take the time to rest, you open yourself up to hearing from God. You give Him the space to speak to us and reveal His plans and purposes for our lives.  In Psalm 46:10, it says, “Be still and know that I am God.” So, if rest is so important, why do we often neglect it? One reason is that we have bought into the lie that we need to be constantly productive in order to be successful. But the truth is, productivity does not equal success. Success is found in living a life that is balanced and fulfilling. It’s found in knowing that we are loved and valued by God, not in what we can accomplish. Another reason we neglect rest is that we feel guilty for taking time off. We believe that we need to be constantly working in order to prove our worth. But the truth is, your worth is not based on what you do, but on who you are in Christ. In Matthew 11:28-30, Jesus says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” If you’re feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, it’s time to loiter in rest. Take a break from the hustle and bustle of life and allow yourself to rest. <ul> <li>Spend time with God</li> <li>Reflect on His goodness</li> <li>Allow yourself to simply BE</li> </ul> Remember, rest is not a luxury; it’s a necessity. And when you rest, you position yourself to live a life that is truly fulfilling and abundant. PRAYER: May you find delight in allowing your mind, body, and spirit to loiter in rest. This is your day to rest.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But when you know your body well, you can make informed decisions about your health and lifestyle. Our bodies are remarkable creations that constantly work to keep us alive and healthy. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But because we are too busy, it's easy to forget what we should be paying attention to -- our bodies. We do whatever, whenever, and later we find ourselves in the ER. As I've been traveling lately, I've been reminded how awesome my body is when I treat it well. But that's the thing. I didn't always treat my body well. I ate whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted it.  And guess what? My body treated me back in the same manner; not feeling good, but only once in a while. If you want to live a more vibrant life, you have got to know your body well. The K.I.S.S. ~ Know your body well! <ol> <li>Listen to your body: Your body sends signals all the time, and it’s essential to pay attention to them. If you feel tired, thirsty, hungry, or in pain, your body is trying to tell you something. Learn to listen to these signals and respond appropriately.</li> <li>Learn your family medical history: Understanding your family's medical history can help you identify your risk for certain health conditions. Ask your relatives about any health problems that run in your family, and share this information with your doctor.</li> <li>Get regular check-ups: Regular medical check-ups can help you identify potential health problems early on. Make sure to schedule annual physical exams, dental check-ups, and other screenings based on your age, sex, and medical history.</li> <li>Track your health metrics: Keep track of your weight, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and other vital signs. Knowing your health metrics can help you identify potential health problems and make lifestyle changes to improve your overall health.</li> <li>Eat good nutrition tailored to you: Your body needs a balanced diet to function correctly. Learn about the nutrients your body needs and how to get them from your diet. </li> <li>Manage your stress: Chronic stress can negatively impact your physical and mental health. Learn how to manage stress through techniques like meditation, deep breathing, sleep, rest, activity, and exercise.</li> <li>Trust yourself: Only you know your body best. Your intuition can often tell you when something is not right with your body. If you feel something is off, listen to your gut and seek medical advice.</li> </ol> One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is making time to know your body well. Make the time. Be intentional with your awareness. Don't assume you fit in the average.  You are unique and only you can know your body well.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But when you know your body well, you can make informed decisions about your health and lifestyle. Our bodies are remarkable creations that constantly work to keep us alive and healthy. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But because we are too busy, it's easy to forget what we should be paying attention to -- our bodies. We do whatever, whenever, and later we find ourselves in the ER. As I've been traveling lately, I've been reminded how awesome my body is when I treat it well. But that's the thing. I didn't always treat my body well. I ate whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted it.  And guess what? My body treated me back in the same manner; not feeling good, but only once in a while. If you want to live a more vibrant life, you have got to know your body well. The K.I.S.S. ~ Know your body well! <ol> <li>Listen to your body: Your body sends signals all the time, and it’s essential to pay attention to them. If you feel tired, thirsty, hungry, or in pain, your body is trying to tell you something. Learn to listen to these signals and respond appropriately.</li> <li>Learn your family medical history: Understanding your family's medical history can help you identify your risk for certain health conditions. Ask your relatives about any health problems that run in your family, and share this information with your doctor.</li> <li>Get regular check-ups: Regular medical check-ups can help you identify potential health problems early on. Make sure to schedule annual physical exams, dental check-ups, and other screenings based on your age, sex, and medical history.</li> <li>Track your health metrics: Keep track of your weight, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and other vital signs. Knowing your health metrics can help you identify potential health problems and make lifestyle changes to improve your overall health.</li> <li>Eat good nutrition tailored to you: Your body needs a balanced diet to function correctly. Learn about the nutrients your body needs and how to get them from your diet. </li> <li>Manage your stress: Chronic stress can negatively impact your physical and mental health. Learn how to manage stress through techniques like meditation, deep breathing, sleep, rest, activity, and exercise.</li> <li>Trust yourself: Only you know your body best. Your intuition can often tell you when something is not right with your body. If you feel something is off, listen to your gut and seek medical advice.</li> </ol> One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is making time to know your body well. Make the time. Be intentional with your awareness. Don't assume you fit in the average.  You are unique and only you can know your body well.   "Be present. Be incredible.

How big are your dreams? Impact begins when you act with great boldness. Motivation can come and go. When hope fades, your life's breath becomes shallow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   One needs to grab hold of the hope that sustains life, your every breath! I think back to when I was first married during the flood of 1993. And the wedding was to be outdoors. With no Plan B, what was I to do? We couldn't change the venue; no possible way to cancel either. "Take it down!", I boldly spoke. A decision had to be made. I had to take A.I.M. on what needed to be done. "So, then, we have such a hope, we act with great boldness." ~ 2 Corinthians 3:12 The K.I.S.S. ~ Act with great boldness! The battle was going to be fought, and victory was declared how God saw it. What battle are you fighting that needs you to act in great boldness? <ul> <li>The battle of writing your book.</li> <li>The battle of starting your business.</li> <li>The battle of quitting the corporate job and stay home.</li> <li>The battle of healing your marriage.</li> </ul> What battle do you need God to come beside you and fight with you? PRAYER: May you walk bravely in your days, knowing that with great boldness comes greater hope!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Whether you're facing a major decision, a personal crisis, or simply feeling stuck, it can be difficult to know how to move forward. But there are things you can do to regain your sense of direction and take control of your life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   When you think about what you need to be doing, it's easy to stay hunkered down and not do anything. I mean seriously...What do you do when you don't know what to do? The K.I.S.S. ~ Hit the ground running!           Explore some strategies for what to do when you don't know what to do. <ol> <li> Take a step back and reflect: When you're feeling lost, it's important to take a step back and reflect on what's going on. Give yourself some time and space to think about what's causing your uncertainty. Write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal, talk to a trusted friend or family member, or see a therapist or counselor. By gaining some clarity on your situation, you'll be better equipped to make a plan for moving forward. </li> <li>Break things down into smaller pieces: If you're feeling overwhelmed by the big picture, try breaking things down into smaller, more manageable pieces. Identify one thing you can do right now to move closer to your goal. It doesn't have to be a big step, just something small to get the ball rolling. Then, once you've completed that task, identify the next thing you can do. By taking things one step at a time, you'll start to build momentum and gain confidence in your ability to move forward.<br /> <br /></li> <li>Get outside your comfort zone: Sometimes, feeling lost is a sign that you're in a rut. You may need to break out of your comfort zone and try something new. This could mean taking a class, joining a club, or volunteering for a cause you care about. By trying new things, you'll gain new experiences and perspectives, and you may discover a new passion or direction in life.<br /> <br /></li> <li>Seek advice and support: You don't have to figure things out on your own. Seek advice and support from people you trust, whether that's a mentor, coach, or friend. They may be able to offer guidance or insights that you hadn't considered. And just having someone to talk to can be incredibly helpful when you're feeling lost or unsure.<br /> <br /></li> <li>Give yourself permission to make mistakes: Finally, remember that it's okay to make mistakes. In fact, it's often through our failures and missteps that we learn and grow the most. Don't be too hard on yourself if things don't go as planned. Instead, use your mistakes as opportunities to learn and adjust your course.</li> </ol>                          Feeling lost or unsure about what to do next can be a challenging experience. But remember, you're not alone. You can regain your sense of direction and move forward with confidence.      A lot of times, the way to accomplish that is to get out of your own head.               Sometimes you need to jump no matter how high seems. Life will never be what you think it should be. So don't overthink what you can overcome.         PRAYER: May your thoughts generate the ideas to go beyond your limiting beliefs. Allow your actions to be the movement you need to keep the ball rolling. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Whether you're facing a major decision, a personal crisis, or simply feeling stuck, it can be difficult to know how to move forward. But there are things you can do to regain your sense of direction and take control of your life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   When you think about what you need to be doing, it's easy to stay hunkered down and not do anything. I mean seriously...What do you do when you don't know what to do? The K.I.S.S. ~ Hit the ground running!           Explore some strategies for what to do when you don't know what to do. <ol> <li> Take a step back and reflect: When you're feeling lost, it's important to take a step back and reflect on what's going on. Give yourself some time and space to think about what's causing your uncertainty. Write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal, talk to a trusted friend or family member, or see a therapist or counselor. By gaining some clarity on your situation, you'll be better equipped to make a plan for moving forward. </li> <li>Break things down into smaller pieces: If you're feeling overwhelmed by the big picture, try breaking things down into smaller, more manageable pieces. Identify one thing you can do right now to move closer to your goal. It doesn't have to be a big step, just something small to get the ball rolling. Then, once you've completed that task, identify the next thing you can do. By taking things one step at a time, you'll start to build momentum and gain confidence in your ability to move forward.<br /> <br /></li> <li>Get outside your comfort zone: Sometimes, feeling lost is a sign that you're in a rut. You may need to break out of your comfort zone and try something new. This could mean taking a class, joining a club, or volunteering for a cause you care about. By trying new things, you'll gain new experiences and perspectives, and you may discover a new passion or direction in life.<br /> <br /></li> <li>Seek advice and support: You don't have to figure things out on your own. Seek advice and support from people you trust, whether that's a mentor, coach, or friend. They may be able to offer guidance or insights that you hadn't considered. And just having someone to talk to can be incredibly helpful when you're feeling lost or unsure.<br /> <br /></li> <li>Give yourself permission to make mistakes: Finally, remember that it's okay to make mistakes. In fact, it's often through our failures and missteps that we learn and grow the most. Don't be too hard on yourself if things don't go as planned. Instead, use your mistakes as opportunities to learn and adjust your course.</li> </ol>                          Feeling lost or unsure about what to do next can be a challenging experience. But remember, you're not alone. You can regain your sense of direction and move forward with confidence.      A lot of times, the way to accomplish that is to get out of your own head.               Sometimes you need to jump no matter how high seems. Life will never be what you think it should be. So don't overthink what you can overcome.         PRAYER: May your thoughts generate the ideas to go beyond your limiting beliefs. Allow your actions to be the movement you need to keep the ball rolling. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

But when you rely on God's strength and courage, you can overcome any obstacle that comes your way. In Joshua 1:9, God tells Joshua, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." This same promise holds true for us today. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

God is always with us, providing us with the comfort, guidance, and strength we need to persevere. By trusting in His love and faithfulness, we can find the courage to face our fears and move forward with confidence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Overcome any obstacle! But how do we cultivate a deeper relationship with God and experience His unwavering presence in our lives? PRAYER - One of the most important ways is through prayer. When you spend time in conversation with God, you open your hearts and minds to His wisdom and guidance. You can share your fears and doubts with Him, and ask Him to fill you with His peace and strength. STUDY - Another way to deepen our relationship with God is through the study of His Word. By reading and meditating on the Bible, you can gain a deeper understanding of God's character, His promises, and His plan for your lives. We can learn from the stories of the heroes of faith who faced incredible challenges and overcame them with God's help. TRUST - You can cultivate a deeper sense of God's presence in your lives by trusting in His promises. As you read and study His Word, you can be reminded of the many times God has shown His faithfulness and love to His people. You can hold onto these promises, knowing that God is with us, even in the darkest moments of our lives. As you face the challenges and uncertainties of life, you can take comfort in knowing that God is always with you. By spending time in prayer, studying His Word, and trusting in His promises, we can deepen our relationship with Him and experience His unwavering presence in our lives.  PRAYER: May you be strong and courageous, knowing that God goes with you always.

There isn't an intentional drive to learn and grow as a couple.  You hang out together thinking that what you had from the beginning will last forever. And that's not the case! You are changing as an individual through experience, age, and knowledge.  Think about the waves in the ocean. There are high tides and low tides. And then you might be lucky for a calm moment. But at no point is a wave the same.  The force, strength, whitecaps, undertows, and currents are all different. Same with how you are as a couple. You are always growing and learning. Change is a constant even in your marriage. So expand your horizon. <ol> <li>Learn something new together. There are many things out there that you can do as a couple. </li> <li>Create a new routine together. You don't want to be boring. You can have a rhythm in life and still be spontaneous and spunky. </li> <li>Explore new opportunities together. This can be anything that makes you curious. Curiosity develops memories. And through those memories, you draw closer to each other emotionally.</li> </ol> Keep this in mind, if you are married, then there is another person in life you must consider.  Being selfish doesn't fit in a good marriage recipe. Take your marriage from vow to wow; expand your horizon.   "Be present. Be incredible.

A family is not formed because of perfection, but by the choices made in the journey. There is more to life than getting it right. How do you operate within your family structure?

A lot of what we do requires the focus to be on responsibilities, habits, and careers. Yet how do you see something that means more in the long run, but the short term might put a little stress on you? There is more to life than trying to be the perfect parent, have the perfect family, and raise the perfect kids. So pick another way. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pick another way! Unfortunately, lots of us parents put that pressure on ourselves. We think we have to do it all, all the time. But that's not the truth.  Everything you do is a choice, and that includes how you parent. My family has a TON of things happening right now. Each child is involved heavily in their schooling or the start of their career. Some are building a family, and I am trying to hold it all together. I received a phone call from my brother who asked if I thought about going to visit my mom and sister. Long story short, I could think about more reasons of why not to go. But in that moment, I intentionally made my thoughts go toward what it would look like if I did go. A few weeks later, I found myself on a plane flying miles away from home across the ocean to see my mom, sister, and niece.  Today, we sit together as a family around the table enjoying each other's company reminiscing about our growing up days and listening to memories and stories that created who we were as a family. You see, Hawaii was where it all started. If it wasn't for Hawaii on this particular Sunday, my family would not be here. You can't do everything right or do everything all the time. Sometimes, you need to breathe and look long-term. My memories I'm creating today is more important than me being 4,200 miles away at my home being mom.  There is more to life than what you see.

Look around today!  But those moments seem to be minimalized or not recognized more often due to the extreme actions on the other side; bitterness, anger, and disappointment.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

How can we see things so close, yet they seem so far away? Inspiration is around you daily. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look around today! Yes, it's hard to imagine life beyond what you see. Blinders can be a good thing, keeping you on track and focused. But it can be the greatest deterrent for finding the good, really the great, in the world around you. Living in a bubble is not good. Thinking you have all the answers encourages a disconnect to those closest to you. Missing the littlest things in life can bring more discomfort, setting you on the path of least resistance for what only you see. Look around today! See the beauty and splendor in all of its glory. Find hope in the actions of a stranger. Discover opportunities in the stillness of your thoughts. Delight in the smiles of others. Look around today! Create your now! PRAYER: May you delight in your surroundings. Don't take for granted the beauty that is close to you. Remember, that nothing is my chance, but by choice and divine connection.

If you can look at it from a different perspective, you may surprise yourself. Health is a choice. We can look at our lives in so many different ways. What one person sees as an excuse, is a blessing to someone else. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Recently, I dove head first, really mouth first, to do what my body really needs from me. NO SUGAR. And that no sugar applies to added sugar or unnecessary carbohydrates. I just do not do well with sugar. And I'm sure you're aware that sugar is a culprit for many diseases like heart disease. The amount of sugar we eat because of processed foods is ridiculous.  Yet, we keep living the same lifestyle, complaining about it but not being willing to take A.I.M. on it.  If you want to live a vibrant life, you have to choose wisely. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose wisely! For lent and for my health overall, I chose to remove unnecessary sugars, and that includes added sugars, any sugar found in processed foods, and even reducing the amount of natural sugar I eat and the timing I eat it. What I have learned is that sugar does NOT do this body well. So why not be intentional and wise? You're health matters. With the Lent season here, I decided to make a double commitment. One to me and one to God.  It might be easy to break your promise to yourself, but God is another story.  <br />- Reframe why you can't eat something. <br />- Be specific in your goals. No sugar coating. <br />- Measure the facts, not the feelings. <br /> Your life matters. And without you, there is no way anyone else can do what you do. CHALLENGE: How do you need to choose wisely more often? PRAYER: May your choices be a reflection of what God desires within. Don't settle for less than when you are worth more than. God's got you!

If you can look at it from a different perspective, you may surprise yourself. Health is a choice. We can look at our lives in so many different ways. What one person sees as an excuse, is a blessing to someone else. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Recently, I dove head first, really mouth first, to do what my body really needs from me. NO SUGAR. And that no sugar applies to added sugar or unnecessary carbohydrates. I just do not do well with sugar. And I'm sure you're aware that sugar is a culprit for many diseases like heart disease. The amount of sugar we eat because of processed foods is ridiculous.  Yet, we keep living the same lifestyle, complaining about it but not being willing to take A.I.M. on it.  If you want to live a vibrant life, you have to choose wisely. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose wisely! For lent and for my health overall, I chose to remove unnecessary sugars, and that includes added sugars, any sugar found in processed foods, and even reducing the amount of natural sugar I eat and the timing I eat it. What I have learned is that sugar does NOT do this body well. So why not be intentional and wise? You're health matters. With the Lent season here, I decided to make a double commitment. One to me and one to God.  It might be easy to break your promise to yourself, but God is another story.  <br />- Reframe why you can't eat something. <br />- Be specific in your goals. No sugar coating. <br />- Measure the facts, not the feelings. <br /> Your life matters. And without you, there is no way anyone else can do what you do. CHALLENGE: How do you need to choose wisely more often? PRAYER: May your choices be a reflection of what God desires within. Don't settle for less than when you are worth more than. God's got you!

There are many choices in life, and how you choose to move on with your goals and dreams matters. Be free to thrive!  This is a special day. It's March Madness Mindset Monday!! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Are you a basketball fan? Well, I can't say I watch a lot of basketball, except when it comes to March Madness. The tournament has its way of raising the bar. It amazes me every time how underdogs can come out on top. Where do they find that extra something special? You and I both know where that comes from; deep down, taking it to the next level. But, like with any game, there is a plan of execution. You get to plan your practice to prepare for your performance. So how do you show up to your game? Are you complaining that you have more work to do? Are you wondering if you can get done what's on your to-do list? Or are you secretly wanting nothing to happen so you can chill out? The K.I.S.S. ~ Be free to thrive! Sounds super easy -- But keeping up with everyone else is tough. However, I'm here to remind you that you don't need permission to do what God has called you to do.  You need to ready yourself today and be present with what God has placed before you to accomplish. As I watch some of these college basketball teams throw down their best stuff, I wonder what it would be like if they all settled for mediocrity. I don't think March Madness would exist. There would be no chance for anyone to stand out differently because it was okay to be okay. But that's the awesomeness of March Madness. It's a level playing field. Did you know there are 11 conferences represented in the Sweet Sixteen? What a spread of talent across all the colleges.  This is a reminder that not one team is perfect. Every team has a shot at winning the championship. And so do you! You don't have to do everything right all the time. But you do have to take A.I.M. -- action ignites motivation. Be free to thrive! So much of our days are spent pondering what we should have or could have done. But what does it matter if we aren't willing to do what's next? At some point, you have to realize how your thoughts can counteract your actions. And believe it or not, your mind just follows.  Why? Because it's easy! The brain doesn't want complications. So keep it simple to the habits you know. WoW!!! If you want to keep moving forward, you've gotta play with a little madness, just like in basketball. <ul> <li>You gotta dig deeper; find the next level to rise up to.</li> <li>You gotta ready your head and heart to do what you don't feel like doing.</li> <li>You gotta play the game every day; flex that consistency muscle.</li> </ul> And most importantly, you gotta believe and trust. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 Are you ready to go above and beyond your feelings? It's time to be free to thrive! PRAYER: May you delight in the presence of what God has placed before you. Don't let the sun go down on the God-size dreams He has for you. Keep moving forward by taking A.I.M.! One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

There are many choices in life, and how you choose to move on with your goals and dreams matters. Be free to thrive!  This is a special day. It's March Madness Mindset Monday!! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Are you a basketball fan? Well, I can't say I watch a lot of basketball, except when it comes to March Madness. The tournament has its way of raising the bar. It amazes me every time how underdogs can come out on top. Where do they find that extra something special? You and I both know where that comes from; deep down, taking it to the next level. But, like with any game, there is a plan of execution. You get to plan your practice to prepare for your performance. So how do you show up to your game? Are you complaining that you have more work to do? Are you wondering if you can get done what's on your to-do list? Or are you secretly wanting nothing to happen so you can chill out? The K.I.S.S. ~ Be free to thrive! Sounds super easy -- But keeping up with everyone else is tough. However, I'm here to remind you that you don't need permission to do what God has called you to do.  You need to ready yourself today and be present with what God has placed before you to accomplish. As I watch some of these college basketball teams throw down their best stuff, I wonder what it would be like if they all settled for mediocrity. I don't think March Madness would exist. There would be no chance for anyone to stand out differently because it was okay to be okay. But that's the awesomeness of March Madness. It's a level playing field. Did you know there are 11 conferences represented in the Sweet Sixteen? What a spread of talent across all the colleges.  This is a reminder that not one team is perfect. Every team has a shot at winning the championship. And so do you! You don't have to do everything right all the time. But you do have to take A.I.M. -- action ignites motivation. Be free to thrive! So much of our days are spent pondering what we should have or could have done. But what does it matter if we aren't willing to do what's next? At some point, you have to realize how your thoughts can counteract your actions. And believe it or not, your mind just follows.  Why? Because it's easy! The brain doesn't want complications. So keep it simple to the habits you know. WoW!!! If you want to keep moving forward, you've gotta play with a little madness, just like in basketball. <ul> <li>You gotta dig deeper; find the next level to rise up to.</li> <li>You gotta ready your head and heart to do what you don't feel like doing.</li> <li>You gotta play the game every day; flex that consistency muscle.</li> </ul> And most importantly, you gotta believe and trust. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 Are you ready to go above and beyond your feelings? It's time to be free to thrive! PRAYER: May you delight in the presence of what God has placed before you. Don't let the sun go down on the God-size dreams He has for you. Keep moving forward by taking A.I.M.! One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Renew your mind, not by your strength, but by God's strength. "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." ~ Romans 12:2 (NIV) Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   This verse is a call to resist the temptation to think and act like the world around us. Instead, we need to allow our minds to be transformed by God, His Word, and the Holy Spirit. Yet, we must remember that the renewing of our mind is an ongoing process that requires intentional effort on our part.  And it's not easy! Just yesterday, I had to deal with some of the stresses of the world. And when I needed assistance, everything was closed, and no one acted like they had the information. So after 2 hours and 40 minutes on hold, I was told that I couldn't do anything until Monday. Seriously?!? The K.I.S.S. ~ Renew your mind! Now I don't know about you, but this was beyond frustrating. Not only can I not attempt to solve the problem on Monday, but I have to sit and wait to do nothing because I can't because of the other problem. Talk about a snowball situation, and a woman about to become unhinged.  This is real life. And God is real, too. So I did my best to hold my tongue and remain ever so calm. I did it. But let me tell you, I had to renew my mind about 477 times to keep me in the state of where God wanted me. Unfair. Unjust. But real. Being who God wants us to be is NOT easy. We can read the Bible and understand every word, and every translation, but our humanness of us, is our stumbling block.  To renew your mind isn't about changing political parties, attending a specific church, or reading particular books.  To renew your mind is to get your heart right with what God has, as your old self is left behind and your new self is born, so you can be more like your Creator.  You and I get to choose how we react or respond in life.  And so, I want to ask you if there is an area in your life that needs to be renewed in God's way. PRAYER: May you let down the walls that keep God out of the nooks and crannies you are ashamed of. You are meant for more by God's standards. Don't let your emotions betray God's will for your life. Even though the road is less traveled, know that who walks with you has gone before you. God is good.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Why do we complain we don't spend enough time together, but still don't make the time? A strong marriage is not built by a calendar, but by moments that made us. I'm amazed how couples can do everything together, but BE together. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Usually, it's running from one place to the next, chasing career advancements, raising kiddos, doing the basics of life, and going to church and community events. But rarely do you see couples investing in the moments of their everyday.  They just do the do. Where do you fall in that category? Are you one who does just that; letting life run you and reacting to every twist and turn? Or are you one who settles into the moment and makes a statement by your presence? If you want an incredible marriage, it starts with everyday moments. Renew your love every day. The K.I.S.S. ~ R.E.N.E.W. your love every day! Now one thing I want you to understand is that the moments that made you as a couple can be good or bad.  Because it's in the moments that you choose how you react or respond. Life isn't about all rainbows and roses. There are many gray skies, too. Yet, this is a reminder that life isn't about all the things you do, but how your time is spent. Your PRESENCE is the key. You could not travel your entire life as a couple and still be fully in love and devoted to each other. You could not have as much money as you wish, but if you do what you can together with what you do have, money isn't the issue. You're presence is. So how do you start with the everyday moments and be present?  <br />- Refresh the day. There are new mercies every morning. So don't pack the bags from yesterday and drag them with you. Yesterday is gone. Today is new. Refresh the day. <br />- Explore the opportunity. Your adventure awaits with your partner. Make it a new adventure every day. Don't see things the same way. Try to make your sweetheart laugh at the mundane things. <br />- Name what matters. You need to know what your focus is for your sweetheart and your marriage. <br />- Express your emotions. You can't stuff your emotions down. That will cause turmoil in the future. But learn how you feel, and how you can express things to your spouse, so they are received in a manner that is not from a threat, but out of love. <br />- Welcome the moments. If you aren't seeking, you won't find. Seek out the moments to create your now as a couple. <br /> RENEW your love every day! PRAYER: May your heart be connected to your actions, emotions, and responses in your everyday. Be on the lookout for those moments to laugh more, live longer, and love deeper.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Why do we complain we don't spend enough time together, but still don't make the time? A strong marriage is not built by a calendar, but by moments that made us.

How you raise your children is your choice. Stop looking side to side, and make your own rules. As a parent, it's easy to get caught up in what others think is right or wrong. From family members to friends, everyone has their opinions on what's best for your child.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, it's important to remember that you are the parent, and ultimately, you get to decide what rules are best for your family. Firstly, it's important to recognize that you are not your child's friend; you are their parent. While it's essential to build a loving and trusting relationship with your child, you also have a responsibility to guide them and set boundaries. Make your own rules. You show your child that you are confident in your decisions and that you have their best interests at heart, even though they will argue differently at times (tweens &amp; teens). By doing so, you will earn your child's respect and help them to develop a strong sense of self and independence. Now, remember, they can't see this. Their minds aren't developed to the point of understanding what you know and them assuming what they want. Also, it's crucial to understand that every family is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. When you make your own rules, you take into account your family's values, beliefs, and culture. This means that you can create a parenting style that aligns with your family's morals and ethics. By doing so, you are giving your child a strong foundation that they can rely on as they navigate the world around them. Make your own rules. As we know, change is a constant. And in raising kids, so are the stages they go through. Sometimes, it seems every day is a new stage.  But when you do this, it allows you to be flexible and adaptable as your child grows and develops. As your child's needs change, you can adjust your parenting style accordingly. And you get to learn too, from your experiences and make changes to your approach if necessary. All of this adds up to showing your child that it's okay to make mistakes and that learning and growing is part of life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your own rules! This is really to give you the space.  <br />- To reassure yourself if necessary <br />- To make adjustments <br />- To pause and verify that you are doing what's best for your child <br />- To take a parenting inventory of what works and what doesn't <br /> So, how can you make your own rules holding true to your values?  <br />-  Identify your family's values and beliefs. What do you want to teach your child? What is important to you as a family? By identifying your values, you can create rules that align with your beliefs and teach your child the principles that matter most to your family.  <br />-  Communicate with your child. Talk to your child about your rules and why they are important. Listen to their perspective and take their opinions into account. By involving your child in the process, you are teaching them to think critically and empowering them to make decisions for themselves.  <br />-  Be consistent. Once you have established your rules, stick to them. Consistency is key when it comes to parenting. When you are consistent, you are teaching your child that rules are not negotiable and that there are consequences for their actions.  <br /> Make your own rules. Be bold in creating a strong and healthy family grounded in the values, beliefs, and morals that you desire for the family. And in doing so, you are creating a parenting style that works for YOUR family! So, don't be afraid to make your own rules, trust yourself, and remember that you are the parent. PRAYER: May your love for your children ground you in the way you raise them. Don't be afraid to make your own rules, and trust yourself. And when you do mess up, own it.

This is the shout from every bedroom that has dreams and goals waiting in the balance.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But all is so still. Everyone is tired. No one wants to get up.  Come on! This is the time to get real. Daylight savings time is here. Spring is around the corner. Maybe we all need to be watching different meteorologists. Eventually, the freezing temps and snow will go, and the blooms will be magnificent. Yet something has got to give. The K.I.S.S. ~ Come on! I think about my kiddos when they were younger, and not that much has changed now.  But they would walk into our bedroom, trying to be oh-so quiet. However, mom-dar knew it before they did. I immediately would jump out of bed and take care of whatever they needed. Why don't we do that for our dreams and goals? We lay around snuggled under the covers hoping the cell phone will blink a different time. Wishful thinking is what I call that. And most of us are living that life. We hunker down in what feels good, instead of being willing to jump up and do what needs to be done. Come on! So today, I want you to think about what you don't have time for. <ul> <li>No time to write</li> <li>No time to clean</li> <li>No time to workout</li> <li>No time to read</li> <li>No time to breathe</li> <li>No time to pray</li> <li>No time to cook</li> <li>No time to create</li> <li>No time to play</li> </ul> I don't have enough time! You don't have to find the time; you create the time. You get to decide what matters in your day. Anyone can lay around and complain that they don't have enough time. But in reality, everyone has enough time. You just get to choose how you spend it. So today, don't let the sun go down on your dreams and goals. Stay awake, for greatness is in the making. PRAYER: May your concept of time be more than responsibilities and habits. Look through the lenses of God and see what He has designed within you. And then, ready your heart to be empowered and equipped.    "Be present. Be incredible.

I really wanted to take a look at how movement affects our bodies. Most of us can change the foods we eat by eating more or less of something. But get us to exercise? I don't think so! We would rather move less and still be healthy. In reality, though, we make excuses.  <br />- Not enough time in the day <br />- Too much to do <br />- Too tired <br />- Results not seen fast enough <br />- Kids <br />- Finances <br /> However, I want to break the cycle of how you look at exercise. Because really, the question we should be asking is, "What doesn't exercise help?" The K.I.S.S. ~ Move for longevity! The benefits of movement far outweigh any excuses and everything you thought it wouldn't help with. Studies and research shows this.  What does exercise improve?  <br />- Sugar control and insulin sensitivity <br />- Helps control weight <br />- Reduces risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol <br />- Mood, motivation, and cognitive function <br />- Prevents dementia by increasing brain-derived neurotrophic factor, which basically increases neuroplasticity and builds new brain cells <br />- Muscle strength and bone density <br />- Reduces the risk of many cancers (colon, breast, uterine, lung) <br />- Sleep <br />- Intimacy (Sex) <br /> What can't you gain from exercise? "Combined with the right diet, exercise is the most powerful tool for staying healthy and extending your life" Dr. Mark Hyman (129). If that is not enough for you, exercise is the key to unleashing regenerative and reparative systems. Think about your immune system, hormones, circulation, and lymphatic flow just to name a few. It's a kick in the right direction. So why don't you exercise? Or exercise more often? That's a valid question. If exercise can have that great of an impact on your body, don't you think you should consider adding it in to your schedule? Well, we know the honest answer.  So let's get real.  <br />- What is holding you back? Time. Kids. Marriage. Career. School. Money. <br />- How much time do you really have to spend on your health? 12 minutes. 45 minutes. What does your day look like? <br />- What can you do NOW? Walk. Swim. Crossfit. Strength training. Pilates. Stretching. Whatever you do, you need to do it at least 5 days a week. <br /> CHALLENGE: Whatever you decide to do, commit to it for one week at a time. Therefore, you're not overwhelmed by too far in the future. And then, I want you to add walking every day! I'm actually considering having a walking club. I don't know what that looks like, but it would be virtual, so you could jump on when I'm out walking, and we could have a conversation.  What I want you to hear today is that you matter. No one can change your health or your body except YOU!!! So you have to be willing to put on your big girl panties (whitey tighties) and get it done. Spring is here, even though it's freezing everywhere. But Summer is around the corner. Let's do this! PRAYER: May you treat your body as the temple of God that it is. Don't put in things that will harm what God has designed for you. Ready your muscles by flexing them daily. Strength is needed to impact the world you touch.    "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

I really wanted to take a look at how movement affects our bodies. Most of us can change the foods we eat by eating more or less of something. But get us to exercise? I don't think so! We would rather move less and still be healthy. In reality, though, we make excuses.  <br />- Not enough time in the day <br />- Too much to do <br />- Too tired <br />- Results not seen fast enough <br />- Kids <br />- Finances <br /> However, I want to break the cycle of how you look at exercise. Because really, the question we should be asking is, "What doesn't exercise help?" The K.I.S.S. ~ Move for longevity! The benefits of movement far outweigh any excuses and everything you thought it wouldn't help with. Studies and research shows this.  What does exercise improve?  <br />- Sugar control and insulin sensitivity <br />- Helps control weight <br />- Reduces risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol <br />- Mood, motivation, and cognitive function <br />- Prevents dementia by increasing brain-derived neurotrophic factor, which basically increases neuroplasticity and builds new brain cells <br />- Muscle strength and bone density <br />- Reduces the risk of many cancers (colon, breast, uterine, lung) <br />- Sleep <br />- Intimacy (Sex) <br /> What can't you gain from exercise? "Combined with the right diet, exercise is the most powerful tool for staying healthy and extending your life" Dr. Mark Hyman (129). If that is not enough for you, exercise is the key to unleashing regenerative and reparative systems. Think about your immune system, hormones, circulation, and lymphatic flow just to name a few. It's a kick in the right direction. So why don't you exercise? Or exercise more often? That's a valid question. If exercise can have that great of an impact on your body, don't you think you should consider adding it in to your schedule? Well, we know the honest answer.  So let's get real.  <br />- What is holding you back? Time. Kids. Marriage. Career. School. Money. <br />- How much time do you really have to spend on your health? 12 minutes. 45 minutes. What does your day look like? <br />- What can you do NOW? Walk. Swim. Crossfit. Strength training. Pilates. Stretching. Whatever you do, you need to do it at least 5 days a week. <br /> CHALLENGE: Whatever you decide to do, commit to it for one week at a time. Therefore, you're not overwhelmed by too far in the future. And then, I want you to add walking every day! I'm actually considering having a walking club. I don't know what that looks like, but it would be virtual, so you could jump on when I'm out walking, and we could have a conversation.  What I want you to hear today is that you matter. No one can change your health or your body except YOU!!! So you have to be willing to put on your big girl panties (whitey tighties) and get it done. Spring is here, even though it's freezing everywhere. But Summer is around the corner. Let's do this! PRAYER: May you treat your body as the temple of God that it is. Don't put in things that will harm what God has...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1433</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,fitness,forgiveness,gratitude,habits,happiness,health,joy,leadership,mindset,nutrition,presence,purpose,relationships,transformation,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/74e6c0344c5d90355cccebd6cf033154.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>2979 Ask for Directions</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/2979-ask-for-directions--54090617</link><description><![CDATA[Life is full of ups and downs. Sometimes, you get lost, confused, and feel like giving up. It's okay to feel this way. But it's not okay to stay stuck in one place. Don't navigate this journey alone. Ask for directions. And when you ask for directions, it doesn't mean you are weak or incapable. It's a sign of strength and awareness of what's happening in the world you touch. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You may find people who have been through what you're going through and can offer valuable advice. You may discover resources that you never knew existed. Or you may find a mentor who can guide you on your journey. But the most important thing is that you keep moving forward. Failure is not the end. Just because you fail doesn't mean that you're not good enough. It's an opportunity to learn and grow. You can choose to give up and stay stuck in your comfort zone. But something tells me that's not where you want to be. You're just hanging out because you don't know the next step. So challenge yourself, push your limits, and achieve your goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ask for directions! And as you do so, it becomes a powerful tool that can help you get back on track. Now yes, it may take some courage to do so, but I promise you, it's worth it. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. Surround yourself with people who uplift and encourage you. Seek out advice from those who have been through similar situations. And remember, it's okay to make mistakes. It's all part of the journey. And in the journey, there will be detours. That, too, is a part of your story.  So, the next time you feel lost or unsure of yourself, take a deep breath and ask for directions; inquire about more than you know. You'll be amazed at the opportunities that come your way, and then you'll realize that you're never alone on this journey. Keep your head held high and take that next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo You've got what it takes. Yes, you gonna get lost once in a while. But don't fret over one thing you do control. Ask for directions. PRAYER: James 1:5 "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." May your right path be the one less traveled. Detours are a blessing if you ask for directions.   "Be present. Be incredible.

If you are still working toward a goal or reaching a dream, don't give up. Keep connected with the power of yet. Most of us feel crushed when we don't take home the prize we've been chasing; a goal, a dream, a promotion, a move, or something different from where we stand. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It's super convenient to quick while you're ahead. Then, you don't have to make up excuses as to why you failed.  But what would happen if you took the NOs and failures, plus the twists and turns, and instead of quitting or giving up, you add the word YET? <ul> <li>I can't do this .... YET.</li> <li>I don't know this .... YET.</li> <li>I won't get this .... YET.</li> <li>I'm not good at this .... YET.</li> <li>I will not make it here .... YET.</li> </ul> When you use the words "can not", or the contraction "can't", it puts a period on that story. But when you add the word "yet," nothing is impossible! ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Add the word YET! Just because the time is not right now, doesn't mean it can't or won't happen....YET. You wanting to expand your dream and reach your goal is no easy feat. But you can do it. There is a time for everything. (Ecclesiastes 3) So how do you add the word YET? <ol> <li>ANALYZE the season. Depending on what is happening in your life, that will help to determine your next steps. Putting something on hold and the reason for doing it helps to keep everything in perspective. It's not necessarily about what you can't do, just not YET!</li> <li>WRANGLE the failures. If you let the failures overcome your hope, there is no road to possibilities. Therefore, you must be intentional about what failed and what you need to keep chasing. The ones you choose become those with the stamp of YET! This is the heartbeat of success. </li> <li>REWORD your thoughts. What you say to yourself is the spark that keeps the flame burning, or the water that extinguishes it. How you word your failures in your mind will either propel you forward or hold you back; a fixed mindset vs. a growth mindset. Keep the dreams and goals alive.</li> </ol> The power of yet will transform how you continue your journey to your dreams, living out your purpose with the passion that you've been gifted. The power of yet provides a path to your future. CHALLENGE: What is one thing that you've been telling yourself that needs to end with the word YET? PRAYER: May your "yet" become the comma in your life making room for God to move you closer to His dreams for you here on earth. This is your day to shine!   "Be present. Be incredible.

If you are still working toward a goal or reaching a dream, don't give up. Keep connected with the power of yet. Most of us feel crushed when we don't take home the prize we've been chasing; a goal, a dream, a promotion, a move, or something different from where we stand. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It's super convenient to quick while you're ahead. Then, you don't have to make up excuses as to why you failed.  But what would happen if you took the NOs and failures, plus the twists and turns, and instead of quitting or giving up, you add the word YET? <ul> <li>I can't do this .... YET.</li> <li>I don't know this .... YET.</li> <li>I won't get this .... YET.</li> <li>I'm not good at this .... YET.</li> <li>I will not make it here .... YET.</li> </ul> When you use the words "can not", or the contraction "can't", it puts a period on that story. But when you add the word "yet," nothing is impossible! ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Add the word YET! Just because the time is not right now, doesn't mean it can't or won't happen....YET. You wanting to expand your dream and reach your goal is no easy feat. But you can do it. There is a time for everything. (Ecclesiastes 3) So how do you add the word YET? <ol> <li>ANALYZE the season. Depending on what is happening in your life, that will help to determine your next steps. Putting something on hold and the reason for doing it helps to keep everything in perspective. It's not necessarily about what you can't do, just not YET!</li> <li>WRANGLE the failures. If you let the failures overcome your hope, there is no road to possibilities. Therefore, you must be intentional about what failed and what you need to keep chasing. The ones you choose become those with the stamp of YET! This is the heartbeat of success. </li> <li>REWORD your thoughts. What you say to yourself is the spark that keeps the flame burning, or the water that extinguishes it. How you word your failures in your mind will either propel you forward or hold you back; a fixed mindset vs. a growth mindset. Keep the dreams and goals alive.</li> </ol> The power of yet will transform how you continue your journey to your dreams, living out your purpose with the passion that you've been gifted. The power of yet provides a path to your future. CHALLENGE: What is one thing that you've been telling yourself that needs to end with the word YET? PRAYER: May your "yet" become the comma in your life making room for God to move you closer to His dreams for you here on earth. This is your day to shine!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The phrase "God of hope" is significant because it reminds us that our hope is not in ourselves, but in God. He is the source of all hope, and as we put our faith in him, we can experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing that He is in control. Then you have the phrase "overflow with hope". This is experienced through the power of the Holy Spirit. This is a powerful concept, as it suggests that our hope can actually increase and overflow as we rely on the Holy Spirit to guide and empower us. The K.I.S.S. ~ Overflow with hope! Overflow with hope means to have an abundance of hope that spills over and affects those around us. It's not just a small amount of hope that we have, but an overflowing and abundant amount that we can share with others. This hope comes from the God of hope and is given to us through the power of the Holy Spirit as we put our faith and trust in Him. As we overflow with hope, we can encourage and inspire others, pointing them toward the source of our hope; pointing them toward God. But at the same time, we can also live with confidence and joy, even in difficult circumstances, because we know that our hope is grounded in something unshakable. Ultimately, "overflowing with hope" is a powerful expression of the transformation that God works in our lives when we put our faith in Him. CHALLENGE: Invite God, the God of hope, into your life. Cry out to Him as you walk by faith. PRAYER: May your heart feel the intensity of God's love for you. Aspire not to be perfect, but to bask in God's presence.    "Be present. Be incredible.

It requires commitment, sacrifice, and a willingness to put the needs of the marriage and partnership above one's own desires. With dedication and effort, a happy and fulfilling marriage is within reach for anyone who chooses to pursue it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose to pursue! But unfortunately, the real-life story is that we want it easy. We don't want to have to work and be on point all the time. We want a break and day offs where we don't have to think about someone else but ourselves. Yet that's not the reality you and I live in. You can't have what you want unless you work for it. You have a dream. It just doesn't fall out of the sky. You have to put in the work to make it happen. The same goes for happiness in marriage. You have got to choose to pursue. <ol> <li>DATE always. You want to keep that sizzle and sass alive! Don't ever make the mistake that you know everything about your spouse. You are changing every day, and so is your spouse. And because we age, our interests change too. So date always. Be curious about who you're sleeping next to. Be loving because you can. Be kind because you both deserve it. Be happy because you're together, not because of the results of life choices.</li> <li>Be CURIOUS. Ask more than you guess. Assumptions will always get you into trouble. It's so hard to climb out of the ditch you dig so deep. Instead of guessing, ask! The more curious you are, the more you discover, the more you can be happy and in love.</li> <li>CHOOSE to be happy. Be the one who sees the possibilities amongst the challenges; the opportunities in the struggles. Nothing is impossible. You can overcome any situation you're in. You don't have to like the results, but you can choose to be happy. </li> </ol> Happiness comes from your commitment, sacrifice, and diligence. At the end of the day, the hard work of pursuit wins.  Choose to pursue. If only we would understand the ramifications of our actions or lack thereof, our marriages would be stronger for it; our families would be stronger for it. And the stronger our families, the stronger our communities and our country. Have you noticed that crabbiness is contagious? Well, so is happiness.  CHALLENGE: Which one do you want to be? Do you want your every day strangled by worries and failures? Or do you want to  delight in knowing that nothing is perfect, but your choice is that you choose happiness? Choose to pursue. PRAYER: May your heart delight in the wonders of what's not perfect in your marriage, but what God has brought together; a happy couple who dares to pursue.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Henry Ward Beecher said, "The first hour of the morning is the rudder of the day." If you want to steer your day in the right direction, it's time to master your morning!

Maybe it was the leg warmers that caught your eye, or the walking while always smiling. Then you have bodybuilding or juicing. But what all four of them have in common is how they start their day. They rise up with intention. It's not about being lazy in the morning. It's striking while the iron is hot.  You're refreshed, renewed, and ready to hit the ground running. If you want to live your best life always, you've gotta master your morning. The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your morning! Most health professionals would include the following for their morning routines.  <br />- Arise Early -- Get up when all is quiet and focus on what you need to start your day. Keep the distractions at bay so you can conquer the day. But remember that if you are going to rise early, you need to go to sleep early, too. <br />- Hydrate -- Start your day with one glass of water. If you can add two before you have any other liquids, your cells will thank you! <br />- Exercise -- Pick a workout that you like to do. That might be running, walking, strength training, circuit training, CrossFit, yoga, or pilates. The key is to do something that revs up your heart rate. <br />- Eat -- Enjoy a solid, healthy meal that includes protein, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats. This will give you the energy you need to start your day. <br />- Prep &amp; Plan -- Get what you need to jumpstart your day, organize your day based on priorities, not fires, and then set your goals. <br />- Practice Gratitude -- It doesn't matter how you do it. Just do it! <br />- Master what matters -- This is open season for you to choose what matters to you. <br /> "To master your morning, you must master what matters." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: How are you going to steer your morning? PRAYER: May your focus be greater than your fear of not trying. Your body needs you to be strong, so you can ready yourself to impact the world you touch.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Maybe it was the leg warmers that caught your eye, or the walking while always smiling. Then you have bodybuilding or juicing. But what all four of them have in common is how they start their day. They rise up with intention. It's not about being lazy in the morning. It's striking while the iron is hot.  You're refreshed, renewed, and ready to hit the ground running. If you want to live your best life always, you've gotta master your morning. The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your morning! Most health professionals would include the following for their morning routines.  <br />- Arise Early -- Get up when all is quiet and focus on what you need to start your day. Keep the distractions at bay so you can conquer the day. But remember that if you are going to rise early, you need to go to sleep early, too. <br />- Hydrate -- Start your day with one glass of water. If you can add two before you have any other liquids, your cells will thank you! <br />- Exercise -- Pick a workout that you like to do. That might be running, walking, strength training, circuit training, CrossFit, yoga, or pilates. The key is to do something that revs up your heart rate. <br />- Eat -- Enjoy a solid, healthy meal that includes protein, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats. This will give you the energy you need to start your day. <br />- Prep &amp; Plan -- Get what you need to jumpstart your day, organize your day based on priorities, not fires, and then set your goals. <br />- Practice Gratitude -- It doesn't matter how you do it. Just do it! <br />- Master what matters -- This is open season for you to choose what matters to you. <br /> "To master your morning, you must master what matters." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: How are you going to steer your morning? PRAYER: May your focus be greater than your fear of not trying. Your body needs you to be strong, so you can ready yourself to impact the world you touch.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Nothing can be done without hope and confidence." Don't delay what you need to start today. Get uncomfortable in your comfort zone. What are you holding back from doing today? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   I think about Helen Keller and all the challenges she faced. As a child, Keller faced numerous challenges due to her disabilities. However, with the help of her teacher, Anne Sullivan, she learned to communicate through a combination of touch and sign language. This opened up a world of knowledge and possibilities for her. Keller went on to graduate from Radcliffe College, becoming the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. She then became a renowned speaker, writer, and advocate for the rights of people with disabilities. Her remarkable achievements were all made possible by her unwavering optimism and faith in herself. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get uncomfortable in your comfort zone! Optimism is a powerful force that can inspire us to overcome obstacles and achieve great things. It is the belief that no matter how difficult the circumstances may seem, there is always a way forward. Optimism gives us hope and confidence, which are essential ingredients for success. You're looking at the glass half full versus half empty. However, optimism is not simply a matter of wishful thinking. It requires action and effort; you have to take A.I.M. to turn your dreams into reality. As Helen Keller once said, "When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another." In order to achieve your goals, you must be willing to work hard and persevere in the face of setbacks. You must be willing to take risks and face challenges head-on. You must be willing to believe in yourself and your ability to make a difference in the world. So let us embrace optimism and use it as a powerful tool for achieving our dreams and goals. Let us have faith in our ability to overcome obstacles and create a brighter future for ourselves and those around us. Now, when troubles and struggles are stirred up, don't be fearful of the unknown. Helen Keller said, "Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow." Looking back to learn a great lesson is beneficial. But looking back to remain stuck and seated in the pit of your past is no place for one moving forward. Get uncomfortable in your comfort zone. Don't be afraid to do what is necessary to live your dreams and conquer your goals. This is your day to shine! PRAYER: May you delight in the challenge of stepping into what seems unattainable, making a way to be a living legacy.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Uncertainty paralyzes your actions and puzzles the mind. So take what you don't know and make it a strength. Every day is a new day. If you are one who wants to be somewhere different than where you are, you have to be willing to go the mile. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   And sometimes, that mile requires doing things with simple, small answers that really don't allow you to see the whole picture of what you're wanting. It's walking in the fog. You can only see as far as your foot steps. So don't let uncertainty rule your day. Drop the dominos! The K.I.S.S. ~ Drop the dominos! You don't have to know everything to move forward. You are simply looking at where you are and dealing with where the dominos fall. <ol> <li>Embrace the unknown</li> </ol> The unknown can be scary, but it can also be exciting. It's an adventure! Instead of focusing on what you don't know, focus on what you can learn. Embrace the uncertainty as an opportunity to grow, and be open to new experiences and perspectives. "Uncertainty breeds opportunity." ~ Kristianne Wargo <ol> <li>Break it down</li> </ol> When you're faced with a complex problem or decision, it can be overwhelming. Break it down into smaller, more manageable pieces. This will make it easier to identify the areas where you need more information, and allow you to focus on taking action in the areas where you do have answers. <ol> <li>Research and learn</li> </ol> Take the time to do your research and learn as much as you can about the topic at hand. Talk to experts, read books and articles, and watch videos to gain more knowledge and understanding. This will not only help you make more informed decisions, but it will also boost your confidence. <ol> <li>Seek help</li> </ol> Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. Seek out the advice and guidance of others with more experience or expertise in the area you're struggling with.  <ol> <li>Trust the process</li> </ol> Remember that success is rarely achieved overnight. Trust the process and be patient with yourself. Keep moving forward, even if it's just one small step at a time. Progress is progress, no matter how small. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo <ol> <li>Focus on what you do know</li> </ol> Instead of getting bogged down by what you don't know, focus on what you do know. Draw on your strengths and past experiences to guide you forward. Celebrate your successes along the way, no matter how small they may seem.      7. Pray If you are a believer, you need to pray. And then, take that next step you know to take. The doors will open and close, and you will be able to discern what you need at the moment you need it. CHALLENGE: Where do you need to begin today? PRAYER: May your actions continually pursue your passion in pursuit of your purpose. This is your day to shine!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Uncertainty paralyzes your actions and puzzles the mind. So take what you don't know and make it a strength. Every day is a new day.

It's walking in the fog. You can only see as far as your foot steps. So don't let uncertainty rule your day. Drop the dominos! The K.I.S.S. ~ Drop the dominos!

Instead of focusing on what you don't know, focus on what you can learn. Embrace the uncertainty as an opportunity to grow, and be open to new experiences and perspectives. "Uncertainty breeds opportunity." ~ Kristianne Wargo <ol> <li>Break it down</li> </ol> When you're faced with a complex problem or decision, it can be overwhelming.

Seek out the advice and guidance of others with more experience or expertise in the area you're struggling with.  <ol> <li>Trust the process</li> </ol> Remember that success is rarely achieved overnight. Trust the process and be patient with yourself. Keep moving forward, even if it's just one small step at a time. Progress is progress, no matter how small. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo <ol> <li>Focus on what you do know</li> </ol> Instead of getting bogged down by what you don't know, focus on what you do know.

Let the whispers of worship resound throughout your life and be the unwavering beat to your heart. I don't know where you are in this season of life, but I believe we leave a lot of things undone, especially when it comes to honoring and thanking Jesus Christ.

The K.I.S.S. ~ The whispers of worship! Matthew Henry believed that true worship is not just about the outward actions we take, but about the inward attitude of our hearts. In his commentary on Psalm 100, he writes, "True worship must be with a humble heart and a holy fear, and in the exercise of faith, hope, and charity, those great Christian graces." Psalm 100 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. 2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. 3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. 5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. The whispers of worship. I really think we are missing the mark in worshipping our heavenly Father. We do what works in the moment, but we don't apply it fully. Henry said, "Worship must be performed with sincerity and uprightness of heart, and according to the revealed will of God." This was in response to his commentary on what Jesus said in John 4:24  24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” Charles Spurgeon, a prominent 19th century preacher, also had much to say about worship. He believed that worship is not just something we do in church on Sunday mornings, but a way of life. In one of his sermons, he said, "True worship is not a momentary act, but a continuous attitude." How do you qualify your day with Jesus at the helm? Are you choosing to be in His presence or doing the minimum just to get to the next thing? God deserves our worship; the praise for what He has done and what He is going to do. We need to have more gratitude than a sassy attitude.  How do you think your relationship with God would grow and change if you woke up and went to bed singing His praises and thanking Him for all He's done? And if you're not sure, think about your spouse's response. I know it would change how you talk to God, and how you see Him in your every day.  CHALLENGE: What are some of the whispers of worship you can give to God? PRAYER: May your moments of worship be a sweet aroma to God.    "Be present. Be incredible.

And do you like where you are? Because if you want more or less of something, it begins by quitting.  How fast have you been running lately? Probably not much time to come up for air.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you find yourself acting like you're not married because life is super crazy. You're simply passing ships in the night. Are you okay with that? Seriously! Most of us are trying to keep everyone else moving forward, but we forget about our marriage.  The one we love, we leave. How does this make sense? It doesn't. And that's why I want you to think about what you are filling your marriage with.   <br />- Are you holding your spouse to the letter of your vows with no room for failure? <br />- Are your expectations out of line for the season of life you're in as a family? <br />- Are you frustrated more than you are content? <br />- Do you prefer to pick a fight versus having calm conversations? <br />- Are you too busy to spend a moment together? <br /> You can't grow as a couple if what you're doing is tearing you apart. So if you want to grow together, it begins by quitting.  The K.I.S.S. ~ It begins by quitting! If your spouse means something to you more than a rug on the floor, then you need to take an honest look at what you are dishing out in your marriage.  <br />- What attitude do you contribute that encourages or discourages your spouse? <br />- What emotion do you evoke most from your spouse? <br />- What action do you over-emphasize for your benefit? <br /> You can truly be in love forever, but you have to be willing to try something new and quit what doesn't work. CHALLENGE: Where do you need to start? Attitude? Emotion? Action? Don't be overwhelmed by all of this at once. Take it a little bit at a time. If you can, talk about it with your spouse. But you can't talk about it if you are defending your position. You gotta come on neutral terms; benefits for all. PRAYER: May your heart grow fonder with every breath you take. When you get entangled with feelings and emotions that overwhelm the heart, take a step back. May your willingness to connect deeper be the spark that keeps the flame burning.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Because if you want more or less of something, it begins by quitting.  How fast have you been running lately? Probably not much time to come up for air.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you find yourself acting like you're not married because life is super crazy. You're simply passing ships in the night. Are you okay with that? Seriously! Most of us are trying to keep everyone else moving forward, but we forget about our marriage.  The one we love, we leave. How does this make sense? It doesn't. And that's why I want you to think about what you are filling your marriage with.   <br />- Are you holding your spouse to the letter of your vows with no room for failure? <br />- Are your expectations out of line for the season of life you're in as a family? <br />- Are you frustrated more than you are content? <br />- Do you prefer to pick a fight versus having calm conversations? <br />- Are you too busy to spend a moment together? <br /> You can't grow as a couple if what you're doing is tearing you apart. So if you want to grow together, it begins by quitting.  The K.I.S.S. ~ It begins by quitting! If your spouse means something to you more than a rug on the floor, then you need to take an honest look at what you are dishing out in your marriage.  <br />- What attitude do you contribute that encourages or discourages your spouse? <br />- What emotion do you evoke most from your spouse? <br />- What action do you over-emphasize for your benefit? <br /> You can truly be in love forever, but you have to be willing to try something new and quit what doesn't work. CHALLENGE: Where do you need to start? Attitude? Emotion? Action? Don't be overwhelmed by all of this at once. Take it a little bit at a time. If you can, talk about it with your spouse. But you can't talk about it if you are defending your position. You gotta come on neutral terms; benefits for all. PRAYER: May your heart grow fonder with every breath you take. When you get entangled with feelings and emotions that overwhelm the heart, take a step back. May your willingness to connect deeper be the spark that keeps the flame burning.    "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Yet overwhelm can get the best of our intentions. Maybe broken is better than fixed. You could be dealing with a broken toy or a broken relationship, but it really doesn't matter. We want to fix it!  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It reminds me of an educational show, Bob the Builder. Do you remember it? Bob, the builder. Can we fix it? Bob, the builder. Yes, we can! Honestly, it's like we take a silent oath that says we will fix everything for our children. And I truly understand that position. But if everything is fixed, is everything perfect? We can give our children false hope and not an understanding of truth when we try to be the fixer.  Now, I'm not saying not to help your children. Parents are there to guide and protect, to provide safety and security, and to love unconditionally. But in all of that, it doesn't mean you can fix everything.  Some things need to be left broken so the lessons can be learned and remembered. Life isn't about the ease of the journey, but the lessons learned along the miles of greatness you walk and that your children walk. Take an extra load off your heart and accept the broken. The K.I.S.S. ~ Accept the broken! Now, I'm probably going to get some pushback on this. But understand my heart.  Of course, this doesn't mean that we should never try to fix things. There are certainly situations where you should do everything you can to find a solution. However, by accepting that you can't fix everything and focusing on simpler solutions when appropriate, you can reduce stress and be more present and supportive for your children. And that's really the focus here. Be the parent you can be, and don't beat yourself up for unattainable standards that no one can reach. So when you accept the broken, there are some benefits. <ol> <li>Firstly, it can alleviate some of the stress and pressure we feel to be the perfect parent who can solve every problem. This pressure can be overwhelming and lead to feelings of guilt and inadequacy. By acknowledging that we can't fix everything, we can give ourselves permission to let go of some of that pressure and focus on what we can control.</li> <li>Secondly, accepting that we can't fix something can also help us to be more present and supportive of our children. When we're constantly trying to fix things, we may not be fully present in the moment with our children. We may be preoccupied with finding a solution rather than just being there for our children and offering them comfort and support.</li> <li>Finally, dealing with something that is broken can actually be simpler than trying to fix it. For example, if your child's toy is broken, you may be able to help them find a new toy or activity to enjoy instead of trying to repair the broken one. Also, if a relationship is broken, it may be simpler to focus on finding a way to move forward rather than trying to fix what's broken.</li> </ol> Again, this is all situational. There is no one size fits all when raising kids. But it's the little things that add up to create the bigger impact.  CHALLENGE: Where do you see yourself overstepping your boundaries in fixing things for your children?  And then ask yourself these questions. <ul> <li>Is there anything wrong with your kids trying to fix it themselves? </li> <li>What is the harm in leaving something broken?</li> <li>Does everything always have to be fixed?</li> </ul> My grandson is learning that there are good and bad consequences. Sometimes if he plays with his toy the wrong way, Daddy can't fix it when it's broken. But one of the things my grandson immediately says, "Fix it!" We can't do that forever and always.  So at times, maybe broken is better than fixed.   "Be present. Be incredible.

That dark gray cloud of being less than and not good enough still lingers. Don't bet on your failures or successes. Keep going! You know that feeling of being less than and not good enough all too well. It's like a dark storm cloud that hovers over you, making everything feel heavy and impossible. You feel like you're stuck, unable to move forward, and it's easy to give up altogether. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

You are so much more than that. You have the strength within you to pick yourself up and keep going, no matter how hard it may seem. When you feel defeated, it's natural to want to stay down. But that's not where you belong. You were made for greatness, and it's up to you to claim it.

And remember, you have a purpose. You have something unique and valuable to offer the world. It's easy to forget that when you're feeling less than, but it's the truth. You were created on purpose for a purpose. So don't throw in the towel just because you got tot the top and you're scared, or because you failed again and you're left in despair.  So take a deep breath. Rise to your feet and keep going. Whether you've been knocked down or reached the top, there's always more to do, more to your journey. You have so much potential within you, and it's time to unleash it. And when you feel tired, when you feel like you can't go on, remember this: rest is not weakness. It's okay to take a break, step back, and rejuvenate or recharge. It's not giving up; it's taking care of yourself so you can keep going. And when you're ready, you'll be stronger and more resilient than ever before. So keep going! You've got this. You are a living legacy. You are enough, and you are capable of achieving anything you set your mind to. Believe in what God has placed in your heart. When you wait, God strengthens your heart.

However, sometimes we tend to overeat, consuming more calories. So lead a healthy life. Be full!  I would love to think that we could eat anything and everything. No boundaries. No foods off-limit. No structure to timing and labels. Only food! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Yet as you know, consuming more calories than our body needs leads to weight gain and other health problems. To avoid this, it's essential to learn how to recognize when our body is full and satisfied.  Let's explore the science of satiety and the benefits of incorporating healthy fats. The Science of Satiety Satiety is the feeling of fullness and satisfaction that comes after eating. It's a complex physiological process that involves communication between the gut, brain, and hormones. The gut communicates with the brain through a network of nerves and hormones, informing it about the amount and type of food that has been consumed. The brain, in turn, responds by releasing hormones that regulate appetite, such as leptin and ghrelin. Leptin is a hormone that is released by fat cells and signals the brain to reduce appetite and increase metabolism. Ghrelin, on the other hand, is a hormone that is released by the stomach when it's empty, stimulating hunger. These hormones work together to create a balance between hunger and fullness. When we eat, the release of leptin signals the brain that we are full, and the release of ghrelin decreases, reducing our appetite. In addition to hormones, the volume and type of food we eat also play a significant role in satiety. Foods that are high in fiber and protein take longer to digest, keeping us feeling fuller for longer. On the other side, foods that are high in sugar and fat are quickly digested, leading to a rapid rise in blood sugar and a subsequent crash, leaving us feeling hungry again soon after eating. All the more reason to add healthy fats! The K.I.S.S. ~ Add healthy fats! Incorporating healthy fats into our diet can help us achieve a sense of fullness and satisfaction after eating. Healthy fats, such as those found in olive oil, avocados, nuts, and fatty fish, are an essential component of a healthy diet. They are important for brain health, reducing inflammation, and regulating hormones, including those that control appetite. Olive oil is a staple of the Mediterranean diet and has been linked to numerous health benefits.  <br />- Including a reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers. <br />- Olive oil contains monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which have been shown to increase satiety and reduce the risk of overeating. <br />- Additionally, olive oil is an excellent source of antioxidants, which help protect the body from oxidative stress. <br /> Avocados are another healthy fat source that can help promote satiety.  <br />- They are high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, fiber, and potassium. In one study, participants who ate half an avocado with their lunch reported feeling 22% more satisfied and had a 24% lower desire to eat in the following hours compared to those who didn't eat avocado. <br /> Nuts are another excellent source of healthy fats that can promote satiety and improve overall health.  <br />- They are rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, fiber, and protein, making them an ideal snack for those looking to maintain a healthy weight. <br />- Eating nuts has been linked to a reduced risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer. <br />- Additionally, nuts contain a variety of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E, magnesium, and potassium, which are essential for overall health and well-being. <br />- Incorporating nuts into your diet, such as almonds, walnuts, and pistachios, can help you feel fuller for longer and reduce the risk of overeating. However, it's important to keep in mind that nuts are high in calories, so it's essential to practice portion control and incorporate them into a well-balanced diet. <br /> Incorporating healthy fats into our diets is essential for maintaining overall health and well-being. Here are three ways to add healthy fats to our diets:  <br />-  Cooking with healthy oils: We can use healthy oils, such as olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil, in our cooking to add healthy fats to our meals. These oils can be used in salad dressings, cooking, and baking.  <br />-  Adding nuts and seeds to meals and snacks: We can add a handful of nuts or seeds, such as almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, or flax seeds, to our meals and snacks to add healthy fats and nutrients to our diet.  <br />-  Incorporating fatty fish: Fatty fish, such as salmon, mackerel, and sardines, are excellent sources of healthy fats, including omega-3 fatty acids. We can incorporate these fish into our diet by grilling, baking, or sautéing them, or by adding them to salads or sandwiches. Alternatively, we can consider taking a fish oil supplement to ensure we're getting enough omega-3 fatty acids.  <br /> In all that you do, consult your medical provider. By giving our body the gift of fullness, we can choose more wisely what to put into it. The brain can be reprogrammed to recognize when we are full and satisfied, allowing us to eat what our body needs, not what we want. To do this, it's essential to pay attention to our body's signals, such as feelings of hunger and fullness, and to eat mindfully, taking time to savor and enjoy our food. So, embrace the power of satiety in healthy eating and be full!   "Train for life.

If you want to stay in the race of your life, walk faster than you run. It's a common misconception that if you want to achieve success, you have to move like you're going to "break your neck" speed.

But the truth is, sometimes slow and steady wins the race. When you feel like you're not making progress, it's easy to get discouraged. You want to give up, and you think that you're never going to reach your goals. But the key to success is to keep moving forward, even if it's at a slower pace. Remember, every step you take is a step in the right direction. At the time, it may not seem like you're making much progress, But as time passes, those small steps will add up. And before you know it, you'll be much farther along than you ever thought possible. The K.I.S.S. ~ Walk faster than you run!             The key is to keep going, even when it feels like you're not getting anywhere. Keep taking those small steps, and before you know it, you'll have covered a lot of ground. Think about it this way: when you're running, you're focused on going as fast as you can. You're putting all your energy into moving forward, but you're also using up a lot of energy in the process. When you walk, you're still moving forward, but you're using less energy to do it. The same is true in life. When you're constantly pushing yourself to move faster, you're using up a lot of energy, and it can be exhausting. But when you slow down and take things at a more manageable pace, you can conserve your energy and keep going for longer. So don't feel discouraged because things aren't moving as quickly as you'd want. Walk faster than you run. Slow down in order to speed up. You want to set the pace for a lifelong race.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Success is not a race, and there's no need to rush. Keep moving forward, and you'll get there eventually. The journey may be slow, but the destination will be celebrated. CHALLENGE: What can you do to walk faster than you run?

Why cling to the familiar routines, relationships, and situations especially if you're unhappy? Be cautious of your comfort zone. Change is not the enemy. Carol Dweck, a renowned psychologist, said, "The view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Her research on mindset shows that people who embrace a growth mindset, believing that their abilities and intelligence can be developed, are more likely to take on challenges, learn from failures, and achieve their goals. However, in contrast, when you have a fixed mindset, then you believe that your qualities are set in stone, may avoid challenges, give up easily, and feel threatened by criticism or setbacks. Dweck's insights apply to the domain of change because they suggest that our beliefs about ourselves and our capacities can shape our willingness to adapt to new circumstances. If you see yourself as capable of learning and evolving, you may approach change as an opportunity to grow rather than a threat to your identity. You might also be more resilient in the face of setbacks or rejection, recognizing that they are not a reflection of your worth or potential. Similarly, Brene Brown, a researcher on vulnerability and courage, said, "Vulnerability is not weakness; it's our greatest measure of courage." Brown's work emphasizes the importance of embracing vulnerability, which she defines as the willingness to expose oneself to uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure. She argues that vulnerability is essential for developing authentic connections with others, for fostering creativity and innovation, and for living a fulfilling life. When you think of change, Brown's message is relevant because it suggests that we must be willing to let go of our defenses and open ourselves to the unknown. We must accept that change involves a degree of uncertainty and discomfort, but also an opportunity for growth and transformation. By embracing vulnerability, we may find the courage to pursue new paths, connect with new people, and express our true selves. How do you overcome what doesn't work? How do you get out of the traps of routines and comfort zones that constantly drive you toward what you are wanting to avoid? Yes, you feel okay because you know what's going to happen, even if you don't like it.  But at some point, you have to say, "Enough is enough!" There's a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens.. (Ecclesiastes 3:1) The K.I.S.S. ~ There's a time for everything!             This verse acknowledges the cyclical nature of life, with its ups and downs, joys and sorrows. It reminds us that change is a natural and necessary part of the journey, and that every phase has its purpose and meaning.  <br />- Make adjustments. You don't have to change everything to make a change. Little tweaks here and there can change your direction. Think about riding in a canoe. By putting your paddle in the water on one side and pushing the water to the top of the canoe, you begin to slow down if you were moving forward. <br />- Renew your mind. Romans 12:2 says, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing, and perfect will." You don't want to be complacent and conform to only what society has to show you. Seek the renewal of your mind so you can continually refresh and rejuvenate the heart, drawing closer to God. <br />- Host a party. Now, I don't mean literally. But when you are ready to take a different path, then celebrate it. Shout it in the hallways of your home. Put it on the locked screen of your phone. Tell your family and friends who will support you. <br /> Change is a natural and necessary part of life that can create growth, courage, and transformation. When you see what's possible on the other side of change, it doesn't appear all that scary. In fact, it's more possible than probable. As Tony Robbins, a motivational speaker, said, "Change is inevitable. Progress is optional." The choice is yours. PRAYER: May you renew your mind with the gifts given to you by God, and be willing to stretch your weaknesses to the point of growth. There's nothing to scary when you walk by faith.

In life, you experience moments where you feel heavy, weary, and tired. Don't let your heart become disconnected, dormant, and dozy. Let God ignite the revival of your heart.   We can easily find ourselves going through the motions of life without any real passion, purpose, or presence. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Our hearts become numb to what really matters, because all we do is live a mundane life.  But what if you knew that what you used to believe is the truth? Would you be willing to go beyond what you can't see in order to experience the revival of your heart? Revival is defined as a renewed interest in or attention to something; a renewal, an awakening. Now, when it comes to the revival of your heart, it's about a renewed passion for God, an awakened desire to serve Him, and a revitalized relationship with Him. Revival is not a one-time event or a quick fix. It doesn't have to happen in a special place. There can be many special places like Asbury University in Wilmore, KY; your church; your own hometown; even in your heart. But remember, the revival is not a one and done. It is a continuous process of seeking and pursuing God's heart, allowing Him to transform you from the inside out. It's the revival of His presence in your heart.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Revival of your heart! The most magnificent feeling is what you feel in your heart.                         <br />-  Repentance - The first step towards experiencing revival for your hearts is repentance. Repentance means turning away from sin and turning toward God. It's acknowledging our wrongdoing and asking for God's forgiveness. In 2 Chronicles 7:14, God says, "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."  <br />-  Prayer - Prayer is powerful for the revival of your heart. It's not just about asking God for things; it's about prayer in His presence, listening to His voice, and aligning our hearts with His. In Matthew 6:6, Jesus says, "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."  <br />-  Read God's Word - Reading the Bible is another essential tool for experiencing revival. It's through the Word of God that we gain insight and wisdom for living a God-honoring life. In Psalm 119:105, the psalmist says, "Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path." Let God's truth (His Word) shape your heart and mind.  <br />-  Fellowship - Get together as a family. That's what fellowship is all about. It's the encouragement and support of believers that you can stay on track and continually pursue God's heart. In Hebrews 10:24-25, we're told, "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching."  <br />-  Surrender - Finally, you must surrender your heart to God and every part of your life. No more compartmentalizing. No more putting God in box. It's about living out His plan here on earth. You cannot be who God desires you to be without Him. Transformation starts with God in your heart. In Romans 12:1-2, we're told, "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."  <br />           PRAYER: May your heart feel the beat of God's presence in every step throughout your days.

It's not too late to do something great for your marriage. Reclaim the romance!  Marriage is a blessing and a beautiful journey that brings two individuals together where "me becomes we." But it's not always roses and rainbows. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   There are many storms in life. Life is busy and hectic. Unfortunately, our marriages take a back seat to our responsibilities. As time goes on, the romance can dwindle, which leaves couples feeling disconnected and unfulfilled. However, you don't have to accept that as truth for your marriage. With a little effort, it's possible to rekindle the spark and reclaim the romance. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim the romance!                       Romance does not happen by chance. After a long day at work, taking care of the kids, and handling the household responsibilities, you're going to be tired and wanting to chill out. But part of your chilling out can include your spouse in many ways, and that means romantically. <ol> <li>Schedule date nights</li> </ol> One of the biggest challenges for couples with busy lives is finding the time to spend together. By scheduling regular date nights, you can prioritize your relationship and make time for each other. Whether it's a fancy dinner or a simple walk in the park, spending quality time together is essential for keeping the romance alive. <ol> <li>Be creative and keep it fresh</li> </ol> If you've been together for a while, it's easy to fall into a rut. To keep things fresh and exciting, try to come up with creative ideas. For example, you could take a cooking class together or go on a weekend getaway to a new city. The possibilities are endless, so don't be afraid to try something new. <ol> <li>Communicate openly and honestly</li> </ol> Communication is the foundation of any successful relationship, and it's especially important when trying to reclaim the romance. Be open and honest with your partner about your feelings and needs. Talk about what you miss in your relationship and what you would like to see more of. By having these conversations, you can work together to create a more fulfilling relationship. <ol> <li>Show appreciation and affection</li> </ol> It's easy to take your spouse for granted when life gets busy, but showing appreciation and affection can go a long way in keeping the romance alive. Take the time to say "I love you" and show your partner that you care. Small gestures like holding hands, kissing, or leaving love notes can make a big difference. <ol> <li>Take care of yourself</li> </ol> Finally, it's important to take care of yourself. When you feel good about yourself, it's easier to be present and engaged in your relationship. Make time for self-care activities like exercise, meditation, or a relaxing bath. When you prioritize your own well-being, you'll have more energy and love to give to your spouse. Reclaiming the romance in your relationship takes effort, but it's well worth it. Remember, a little effort can go a long way in keeping the romance alive!           CHALLENGE: How can you serve your spouse romantically? PRAYER: May you accept the challenge of loving your spouse as God loves you. As the roller coaster of life twists and turns, share your heart with the one you said, "I do," too.             "Be present. Be incredible.

Whether it's a fancy dinner or a simple walk in the park, spending quality time together is essential for keeping the romance alive. <ol> <li>Be creative and keep it fresh</li> </ol> If you've been together for a while, it's easy to fall into a rut. To keep things fresh and exciting, try to come up with creative ideas. For example, you could take a cooking class together or go on a weekend getaway to a new city. The possibilities are endless, so don't be afraid to try something new. <ol> <li>Communicate openly and honestly</li> </ol> Communication is the foundation of any successful relationship, and it's especially important when trying to reclaim the romance. Be open and honest with your partner about your feelings and needs. Talk about what you miss in your relationship and what you would like to see more of. By having these conversations, you can work together to create a more fulfilling relationship. <ol> <li>Show appreciation and affection</li> </ol> It's easy to take your spouse for granted when life gets busy, but showing appreciation and affection can go a long way in keeping the romance alive. Take the time to say "I love you" and show your partner that you care. Small gestures like holding hands, kissing, or leaving love notes can make a big difference. <ol> <li>Take care of yourself</li> </ol> Finally, it's important to take care of yourself. When you feel good about yourself, it's easier to be present and engaged in your relationship. Make time for self-care activities like exercise, meditation, or a relaxing bath. When you prioritize your own well-being, you'll have more energy and love to give to your spouse. Reclaiming the romance in your relationship takes effort, but it's well worth it. Remember, a little effort can go a long way in keeping the romance alive!           CHALLENGE: How can you serve your spouse romantically? PRAYER: May you accept the challenge of loving your spouse as God loves you. As the roller coaster of life twists and turns, share your heart with the one you said, "I do," too.             "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Only if it was easier, but strangely, I would argue that it can be simpler than we make it.  A lot of parents try to be accepted by their children, going for the "like" vs. the respect.  The parents' thinking is that "If they 'like' me, then we'll be good friends. Parenting will be a piece of cake."  But as you know, that's not the truth.   If we keep trying to be "friends" with our children, they will struggle to become productive adults.  Life as a parent is not easy. But you can impact your children without sacrificing your sanity. Build the rhythms of your love with respect. The K.I.S.S. ~ Respect over "likes"!                       In today's digital age, technology is ingrained into our DNA. Therefore, social media platforms have become an integral part of life.  And when children (and adults) are on social media, we desire those "likes" that validate who we are.  Now social media can be beneficial for keeping in touch with friends and meeting people, etc. But come on parents! We can't let "likes" become the priority over values. Respect over "likes"  <br />-  MODEL respectful behavior: Children learn from what they see and say.  <br />-  TEACH empathy: Empathy is the ability to put ourselves in someone else's shoes so we can understand their perspective.  <br />-  SPEAK face-to-face: Quit making everything into a text. It's fine if you're away from each other, but in the same house? Seriously! How you interact with your children will build their real-life experiences.  <br />-  MONITOR their social media: Parents, you have to know what's happening on your child's social media feed. Give them clear boundaries. And if they are on social media, you need to be too.   <br />-  FOSTER the family and a community: You must encourage your children to be involved in the family and in activities that build them up and reinforces respect.  <br /> You will have years to be friends with your children. But now, they need you to be their parent. Nope, you won't always feel appreciated and liked. But remember, it's respect over "likes"!

Don't run away from the insurmountable situations that fill your day. Be bold even when you don't know how your situation will turn out.  Know there is always hope for the heart. When those moments show up on your doorstep and begin pounding down your door, a rescue might be exactly what you need. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Most of us can become buried in our thoughts of despair and forget that we don't have to pull out our hair. There is hope for the heart.  What does your day look like?  Are you already dreading what is around the corner?  You don't have to convince yourself that something is going to be different. It already is if you believe it.  What you think about, you bring about. So let go of all the CRAP that's drowning your smile.   No, your day most likely won't be perfect. Then again, neither will mine.   Stop complaining and start retaining. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hope for the heart!             But are you willing to look for it in the nooks and crannies of your day? Because most of us seem to hang out with what ruins our day rather than what builds up our day. Take a trip with me for just a moment. Imagine sitting in a short, canvas chair with the sand between your toes as little drops of sweat roll down the side of your face and kiss your cheeks. The ocean waves gently caress the shore as small white bubbles come up from the sand. There is a crab grateful for the water reward.  Soon the refreshing water reaches your toes washing away all the worries to and fro.  What do you need to let wash away today? What can you give to God, so your heart doesn't have to be so heavy? Isaiah 40:31 but those who hope in the Lord<br />     will renew their strength.<br /> They will soar on wings like eagles;<br />     they will run and not grow weary,<br />     they will walk and not be faint. We all deal with stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and despair differently. My plea for you is that you don't let it overcome you. You can overcome it! There is hope for the heart. CHALLENGE: Don't complain more than you express joy.             "Be present. Be incredible.

Be bold even when you don't know how your situation will turn out.  Know there is always hope for the heart. When those moments show up on your doorstep and begin pounding down your door, a rescue might be exactly what you need. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Most of us can become buried in our thoughts of despair and forget that we don't have to pull out our hair. There is hope for the heart.  What does your day look like?  Are you already dreading what is around the corner?  You don't have to convince yourself that something is going to be different. It already is if you believe it.  What you think about, you bring about. So let go of all the CRAP that's drowning your smile.   No, your day most likely won't be perfect. Then again, neither will mine.   Stop complaining and start retaining. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hope for the heart!             But are you willing to look for it in the nooks and crannies of your day? Because most of us seem to hang out with what ruins our day rather than what builds up our day. Take a trip with me for just a moment. Imagine sitting in a short, canvas chair with the sand between your toes as little drops of sweat roll down the side of your face and kiss your cheeks. The ocean waves gently caress the shore as small white bubbles come up from the sand. There is a crab grateful for the water reward.  Soon the refreshing water reaches your toes washing away all the worries to and fro.  What do you need to let wash away today? What can you give to God, so your heart doesn't have to be so heavy? Isaiah 40:31 but those who hope in the Lord<br />     will renew their strength.<br /> They will soar on wings like eagles;<br />     they will run and not grow weary,<br />     they will walk and not be faint. We all deal with stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and despair differently. My plea for you is that you don't let it overcome you. You can overcome it! There is hope for the heart. CHALLENGE: Don't complain more than you express joy.             "Be present. Be incredible.

If you want to live the life you desire, learn how to be more attractive by your definition and reflection. The world does not need to dictate what healthy living is all about for you.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Your body is your responsibility. You can learn from the science and make your decisions to what works best for you.  But ultimately, what seems to hold most of us back?  Who we see in the mirror.  Our reflections can be a deterrent to who we are not, what we are lacking, and where we have failed.   At the same time, our reflections can remind us of who we can become even when all we see is a mess.  You don't have to have all the answers in order to move forward on a goal. You don't have to be "all in" without errors to pursue a healthy lifestyle.  It's about releasing the control that overrules your every step.  "Perfection does not equate to what you see in your reflection." ~ Kristianne Wargo  Be gentle in spirit and tough in taking the next step.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  When it comes to how to be more attractive, you start where you left off. The K.I.S.S. ~ Start where you left off!             You can never get back the time of yesterday. But you can defend your time today in order to impact your tomorrow.  Start where you left off.  <br />- SEE the truth, not the lies. So much of what we want is entangled with lies. We make decisions that don't make sense to who we want to become, leaving only the answers to fulfill what we currently know. When you face the truth, that's where the transformation begins. <br />- ACT on one thing, not lots of things. Don't overcomplicate your days. Life is complicated enough. So do what you can in the season you are in and create a rhythm. You need consistency to build resilience to your old habits. <br />- BE who you are becoming, not the memories of your failures. You can knock yourself down as many times as you want. But the more you live like who you are becoming, the greater your chances of living the life you desire. <br /> When it comes to being more attractive, it doesn't matter what others think. It matters who you see in your reflection.  If you continue to cut yourself down and talk bad about yourself, that's where you're going to stay. However, if you are willing to take a chance on transitioning to your goals, then that's where you'll find what you're looking for. CHALLENGE: Don't focus on all the stuff. Take what you can do today, and do the best you can today! PRAYER: May the peace of progress consume your soul as you work towards gaining the healthy lifestyle you desire.

Do you wallow in the failures and shortcomings? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>    Life can get really complicated. Once when you think you've figured it out, a surprise comes around the corner.  Yay for you!! No pressure. Nothing to prove. No promotion. Only a production.  Why is it that we can be so involved in our lives that we miss what's right in front of us?  Disappointments can deflate our discovery of every day delights.  If you hang out with your failures too long, you'll actually reason out their potential of being a win.  Stop the foolishness! You have got to stay out of the way of the doors that close. The K.I.S.S. ~ When one door of happiness closes...!             Another one opens. Change your mindset to, "What does this make possible?" You get to choose how you show up every day. Your failures don't have to dictate the results of today, but they can shape your tomorrow.  Instead of lowering your standards to your failures, raise the mark of your success as you create your now. Look for the possibilities in the problems. Dress your heart and mind for the day to conquer with each step take. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo There is no reason not to be who God created you to be.  Blessings come in many shapes and sizes. Don't be fooled by what you can't see when you're not looking. As the results of your day become the focus of your ways, look for the open door.  PRAYER: Lord, I pause, knowing that I will not do everything right. I will mess up, but I'm thankful you will make it right. When my mind becomes shattered to pieces from my failures, I ask you now to mend the pieces and heal the hurt. This is your day to make a way. I am looking for Your open doors.             "Be present. Be incredible.

Do you wallow in the failures and shortcomings? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Once when you think you've figured it out, a surprise comes around the corner.  Yay for you!! No pressure. Nothing to prove. No promotion. Only a production.  Why is it that we can be so involved in our lives that we miss what's right in front of us?  Disappointments can deflate our discovery of every day delights.  If you hang out with your failures too long, you'll actually reason out their potential of being a win.  Stop the foolishness! You have got to stay out of the way of the doors that close. The K.I.S.S. ~ When one door of happiness closes...!             Another one opens. Change your mindset to, "What does this make possible?" You get to choose how you show up every day. Your failures don't have to dictate the results of today, but they can shape your tomorrow.  Instead of lowering your standards to your failures, raise the mark of your success as you create your now. Look for the possibilities in the problems. Dress your heart and mind for the day to conquer with each step take. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo There is no reason not to be who God created you to be.  Blessings come in many shapes and sizes. Don't be fooled by what you can't see when you're not looking. As the results of your day become the focus of your ways, look for the open door.  PRAYER: Lord, I pause, knowing that I will not do everything right. I will mess up, but I'm thankful you will make it right. When my mind becomes shattered to pieces from my failures, I ask you now to mend the pieces and heal the hurt. This is your day to make a way. I am looking for Your open doors.             "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Simplify, simplify."   Why is it that in life, we have to be busy to prove our success?  And how does that prove success anyway?  Life isn't about what you conjure up in your mind or what the world tells you is truth. Stick to who you are, the person God created you to be, and then serve.

To simplify your every day, disconnect from your devices for a set period of time each day. You might take a digital detox in the evenings or on the weekends, or simply turn off your phone during meals or other important moments.  <br />-  Prioritize: Another way to simplify your life is to focus on your most important priorities. Take some time to think about what really matters to you and how you want to spend your time. Then, make a list of your top three to five priorities and use these as a guide for how you allocate your time and energy.  <br />-  Declutter: Physical clutter can be a major source of stress and distraction. To simplify your environment, take some time to declutter your space. You might start with one room or area of your home, then gradually work through your belongings. Consider donating or selling items you no longer need or use, and focus on keeping only what is essential and meaningful to you.  <br /> PRAYER: May your moments become more in focus as you seen the beauty of what God has placed before you.

By that time, the stress and overwhelm suffocates any sparks of hope. Don't be fearful of what's impossible. Go to God first. No matter how big or small the decision, go to God for His direction, guidance, and wisdom. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

What a feeling to hear him cry out, "Papa, Papa, Papa! Gran-ma, Gran-ma, Gran-ma!" He held hand up high to the sky with the biggest smile on his face.  Soon after we sat down for meal in a local restaurant, he asked to pray. So immediately, we folded our hands and then Papa prayed over the food. After saying "Amen," he wanted to pray himself.   Now remember, he's only two. We started with two- and three-word sentences. "Amen," he squealed loudly.  What enthusiasm to pray, thank God for his goodness and food, and bless our time together.  In the moment, we asked God to be with us in our fellowship and coming together as a family.   Some would say God doesn't care about the little things, but nothing is too little for God.

If for something as simple as thanking God for time spent together and the food on the table, why can't we cry out for more? Why do we have to wait to assume it has to be a flood or blood in order for God to pay attention? The innocence of my grandson's prayer spoke directly to God's heart.  He wants to hear more from you! Go to God first. Take your hurts, challenges, and celebrations to Him. The fact that God wants to help you should ignite you with a sense of calm and confidence.  Don't let God be the last resort. He deserves to be your first. PRAYER: May God seal your heart with grace, love, and hope. Know that nothing is impossible when He is your first!             "Be present. Be incredible.

What a feeling to hear him cry out, "Papa, Papa, Papa! Gran-ma, Gran-ma, Gran-ma!" He held hand up high to the sky with the biggest smile on his face.  Soon after we sat down for meal in a local restaurant, he asked to pray. So immediately, we folded our hands and then Papa prayed over the food. After saying "Amen," he wanted to pray himself.   Now remember, he's only two. We started with two- and three-word sentences. "Amen," he squealed loudly.  What enthusiasm to pray, thank God for his goodness and food, and bless our time together.

A marriage is built and becomes strong because whether the circumstances are good or bad, you have a love that laughs. A successful marriage is not built solely on romantic moments, but also on the ability of both partners to navigate life's challenges with a sense of humor.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   A love that laughs is a love that endures, and in many ways, it is the most important foundation for a long-lasting, fulfilling relationship. When a couple first falls in love, they are often caught up in the excitement of their first dates, the passion of their first kisses, and the intensity of their first romantic encounters. As time passes, these moments and feelings fade into memory, and the relationship must evolve to stay strong. The ability to find humor in your every day can make all the difference when experiencing life's ups and downs.  <br />- a frustrating day at work <br />- a disagreement with family or friends <br />- a simple miscommunication between partners <br />- a health battle <br />- financial struggles <br />- kids' schedules and activities <br /> The ability to laugh together can most certainly ease tensions and bring perspective. So laugh more. The K.I.S.S. ~ Laugh more!              Studies have shown that couples who share a sense of humor and regularly engage in playful banter and teasing are more likely to have greater satisfaction in their relationship. Laughter is a powerful tool. It strengthens the bond between two people, and helps to build resilience in the face of chaos. But a love that laughs is not just about finding humor in the everyday. It's about being able to share in the joys and celebrations of life with a sense of joy and lots of smiles. Whether it's celebrating a promotion at work, a milestone anniversary, or the birth of a child, being able to share in these moments with laughter and playfulness can make them all the more special. Of course, there will be times when life's challenges are overwhelming, and it may be difficult to find humor in the midst of struggle. But even in these moments, a love that laughs can help to provide the strength and support needed to get through.  <br />- Find the light-hearted moments - You find what you search for. So look for something that can lessen the tension. And if both of you are looking, imagine the chemistry of giggles.  <br />- Lessen the overwhelm with laughter - Which would you prefer, a bucket of overwhelm or a bundle of giggles? Life is not easy. We weren't promised that it would be. So instead of always working yourself up over stuff you can't control or change in the moment, lessen that overwhelm with laughter. Break your silence. <br />- Laugh about your quirks - No one is perfect. So stop trying to be. You have control of how you act out. Instead of buying into all of the labels of this world, buy into all your quirks. Be silly! Don't take yourself so literally. <br /> "Loosen up to lessen the load." ~ Kristianne Wargo Share in the joys of life with a sense of playfulness while building a strong foundation in your marriage. A love that laughs is a love that endures. PRAYER: May your love for your spouse reach beyond the feelings which originally captivated your heart. Create new webs of engagements by extending your love through giggles and belly laughs. Thank you, Lord, for this gift of laughter that brings joy to marriage.             "Be present. Be incredible.

As your children expand their horizons, one of the greatest gifts you can give is to let 'em go! Now there is a time and a place for everything. And depending on the stage and age of your children, this may not make sense to you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But as I've seen my children grow and explore what the world has to offer, I have learned that the reins I keep must be taut at times, and loose at other times. However, it seems that parenting has gone to the extreme. We keep everything the same regardless of the stage or age of the child. So my take on all of this is to let 'em go so they can grow! The K.I.S.S. ~ Let 'em go!              When we let our children go, it doesn't mean we stop loving and supporting them. Instead, you're giving them an opportunity to navigate their own waters, make their own choices, and learn from their own mistakes. You get to guide them, offer advice, and provide a safety net, but ultimately, depending on their stage and age, the decisions they make are theirs to own. Further, as much as it hurts, we have got to let 'em go even when we know a failure will occur. Now, I'm not referring to something life-threatening.  But it does impact their life.  Think back to times when you had to do what you had to do in order to learn from the good or bad of your decisions. The actions children take solidify their decisions regarding what causes good, bad, or ugly results. The more chances they have to express their decisions creates a compound effect. This is where our kids grow up! Let 'em go! PRAYER: "Be patient in how your children experience life. Give them opportunities to grow, fail, and achieve."             "Be present. Be incredible.

As John Madden says, "The road to Easy Street goes through the sewer." Most of us are unwilling to go through all the junk to achieve our goals and reach our dreams. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The path to success is not easy. It often involves going through unpleasant and difficult experiences. Nowadays, generations are expecting their dreams to be served on a silver, oh wait, a platinum platter. This whole viral life of luxury and comfort, plus success. Everyone wants to be in the spotlight.  But not many want to face difficult challenges. The Easy Street should be just that, easy! Yet it's not. That's why it's important to continue your pursuit. You can't give up just because you're caught in the sewer. John Madden, may he rest in peace, gave some incredible mic drops during throughout his life as a coach and NFL sports commentator. Coach Madden knew that you would encounter unpleasant or undesirable aspects. It was a guarantee. These could be setbacks, failures, or difficult situations, all requiring hard work and perseverance.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Continue your pursuit!              You can't give up! Many people may abandon their pursuit before they even get close, choosing to wallow in adversity, celebrating with a pity party, and dismissing their dreams as unrealistic. But when you look at these hardships, they serve as a way to those who are dedicated and not ones who merely pay lip service to life.  "Easy Street" isn't made to be easy.  However, you can overcome the obstacles and look for the opportunities in the process of progress. There is no straight path to your dreams. It's a winding sewer you get to wade through as you continue your pursuit.  PRAYER: "May your passion be the fuel of your pursuit. Nothing is impossible." ~ Kristianne Wargo             "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   The path to success is not easy. It often involves going through unpleasant and difficult experiences. Nowadays, generations are expecting their dreams to be served on a silver, oh wait, a platinum platter. This whole viral life of luxury and comfort, plus success. Everyone wants to be in the spotlight.  But not many want to face difficult challenges. The Easy Street should be just that, easy! Yet it's not. That's why it's important to continue your pursuit. You can't give up just because you're caught in the sewer. John Madden, may he rest in peace, gave some incredible mic drops during throughout his life as a coach and NFL sports commentator. Coach Madden knew that you would encounter unpleasant or undesirable aspects. It was a guarantee. These could be setbacks, failures, or difficult situations, all requiring hard work and perseverance.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Continue your pursuit!              You can't give up! Many people may abandon their pursuit before they even get close, choosing to wallow in adversity, celebrating with a pity party, and dismissing their dreams as unrealistic. But when you look at these hardships, they serve as a way to those who are dedicated and not ones who merely pay lip service to life.  "Easy Street" isn't made to be easy.  However, you can overcome the obstacles and look for the opportunities in the process of progress. There is no straight path to your dreams. It's a winding sewer you get to wade through as you continue your pursuit.  PRAYER: "May your passion be the fuel of your pursuit. Nothing is impossible." ~ Kristianne Wargo             "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

But no matter how tough things get, you always have the choice to live in the light of love. Today is Valentine's Day, a day of love. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, in our world, many days seem quite the opposite. We battle against screaming kids, unruly customers, demanding neighbors, frustrated drivers, and anxious parents, to name a few. And then, you're exhausted. Doesn't seem like we have much to show for our advancement in science and technology when our hearts are still broken and hurting. This is real life. But it doesn't have to be yours! The K.I.S.S. ~ Live in the light of love!              You can choose to approach every situation and interaction with a mindset of kindness, compassion, and understanding. It means to see the good in people and the world, even when it's not immediately apparent. Now that, too, doesn't mean that if something bad has happened, there won't be any consequences for the crime, the issue at hand.  Of course, there will be. But it's how you handle the struggles and troubles that you face. When you choose to see the world through the lens of love, you open yourself up to new possibilities and opportunities. <ol> <li> Practice Gratitude: Take time each day to reflect on the things in your life that you are thankful for, and express gratitude to the people who have positively impacted your life. "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." - 1 Thessalonians 5:18 </li> <li> Be Kind: Random acts of kindness can profoundly impact the people around you. Whether holding the door open for someone, complimenting, or simply smiling at a stranger, small acts of kindness can help spread positivity and love. "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." - Galatians 6:9 </li> <li> Let Go of Judgement: It's easy to judge others based on their actions or beliefs, but when you do so, you close yourself off from the possibility of understanding and compassion. Instead, try to approach others with an open mind and heart, and seek to understand their perspective. "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." - Matthew 7:1-2 </li> <li> Focus on Love: When faced with difficult situations or negative emotions, focus on the love surrounding you. Whether it's the love of family and friends, the beauty of nature, or the kindness of strangers, there is always love to be found if you look for it. "And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." - 1 Corinthians 13:13 </li> </ol> So create a more positive and fulfilling life for yourself and those around you. Choose to live in the light of love, no matter how tough things get. PRAYER: 1 John 4:7-8 ~ "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love."             "Be present. Be incredible.

But no matter how tough things get, you always have the choice to live in the light of love. Today is Valentine's Day, a day of love. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, in our world, many days seem quite the opposite. We battle against screaming kids, unruly customers, demanding neighbors, frustrated drivers, and anxious parents, to name a few. And then, you're exhausted. Doesn't seem like we have much to show for our advancement in science and technology when our hearts are still broken and hurting. This is real life. But it doesn't have to be yours! The K.I.S.S. ~ Live in the light of love!              You can choose to approach every situation and interaction with a mindset of kindness, compassion, and understanding. It means to see the good in people and the world, even when it's not immediately apparent. Now that, too, doesn't mean that if something bad has happened, there won't be any consequences for the crime, the issue at hand.  Of course, there will be. But it's how you handle the struggles and troubles that you face. When you choose to see the world through the lens of love, you open yourself up to new possibilities and opportunities. <ol> <li> Practice Gratitude: Take time each day to reflect on the things in your life that you are thankful for, and express gratitude to the people who have positively impacted your life. "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." - 1 Thessalonians 5:18 </li> <li> Be Kind: Random acts of kindness can profoundly impact the people around you. Whether holding the door open for someone, complimenting, or simply smiling at a stranger, small acts of kindness can help spread positivity and love. "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." - Galatians 6:9 </li> <li> Let Go of Judgement: It's easy to judge others based on their actions or beliefs, but when you do so, you close yourself off from the possibility of understanding and compassion. Instead, try to approach others with an open mind and heart, and seek to understand their perspective. "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." - Matthew 7:1-2 </li> <li> Focus on Love: When faced with difficult situations or negative emotions, focus on the love surrounding you. Whether it's the love of family and friends, the beauty of nature, or the kindness of strangers, there is always love to be found if you look for it. "And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." - 1 Corinthians 13:13 </li> </ol> So create a more positive and fulfilling life for yourself and those around you. Choose to live in the light of love, no matter how tough things get. PRAYER: 1 John 4:7-8 ~ "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love."             "Be present. Be incredible.

Today, we will take a play out of the playbook and do a little Monday quarterbacking. The K.I.S.S. ~ Spin it your way!              Now, you have many choices, rather you win or lose, fail or succeed. But how you continue to move forward sets the tone for your journey! You can choose to get stuck in your own patterns and habits, and make excuses for why you fell short and didn't make it to the finish line.  Or you can choose to do it differently without excuses, no matter the result. <ol> <li>Play through the highs and lows. And in this, you are giving your best! You have to stay focused. You can't give up regardless of where you land. "When you take action, you make traction. Take A.I.M.!" ~ Kristianne Wargo</li> <li>Keep it fresh and be creative. You can play in the game of life however you want. You get to come up with innovative ideas. You get to play to your strengths, so you can tighten your weaknesses. Think outside the box. "Patterns only keep you anchored to what worked in the moment. A new moment requires new actions to anchor." ~ Kristianne Wargo</li> <li>Be teachable throughout life. You can't do what God designed you to do if you aren't willing to become who He created you to be. You have got to be teachable. You must be willing to learn more even when you're at your best.</li> </ol> Life isn't about proving who you are. What matters is whose you are. When you consider how to overcome your circumstances or challenges, you are leading your life well.

You've got the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. As we all know, football is a game of strategy and teamwork, where every play, every yard, and every first down counts. The team that earns the most points will hoist the trophy and claim it as a victory! Just as in football, life is a game with its own set of challenges, setbacks, and triumphs. And just as in football, we all have opportunities: first downs, second chances. “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” ~  Philippians 3:13-14  The K.I.S.S. ~ First downs, second chances!              In life, there will be times when we feel like we’ve missed the mark. We may feel like we’ve lost a game, or that we’ve failed to make the first down. But the good news is that we always have a second chance to get back up, to keep moving forward, and to press on towards the prize. Just like in football, you've got to keep straining toward what is ahead (to make progress and move forward), one yard at a time.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo You must keep our eyes fixed on the prize, and never give up. Trust in the Lord and His plan for your life, even when the path ahead seems uncertain and you can't see the staircase.  The greatest risk is faith! "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." ~ Hebrews 11:1 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” ~  2 Corinthians 5:17 This means that, in Christ, you have the opportunity for a fresh start, a new beginning, a second chance. You don’t have to be held back by your past mistakes, your failures, or your setbacks. Instead, you get to press on towards the prize, knowing that in Christ, you are a new creation. And there because of that, there are new mercies every morning. With the anticipation of the Super Bowl, let us remember that in life, God makes all things possible. You can have those first downs even when you feel like you're on the sidelines or not even in the game. And never forget, with God, nothing is impossible: first downs, second chances. This is the day that the Lord has made for you to make progress and move forward, one yard at a time, to trust in the Lord, and in His plan for your life. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 PRAYER: May the Lord bless your setbacks so you can reach our heavenly comebacks here on earth!

But don't you think they, too, want to be loved 100% of their lives? Love like you mean it! The greatest feeling is love. We all want to feel loved. But how we feel it differs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Our childhood experiences shape how we embrace certain emotions from specific actions. This can be very good for some, or extremely unnerving for others.  And from these experiences, you develop your "feelings"; the interpretation of your emotions. That's the sticky part to your heart. That's what you recall and then, how you define your feelings, like love. In 1992, Gary Chapman wrote a book called The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate.  His message eventually took off and couples began paying attention to the five languages. So what if you knew your spouse's love language? Or what if your spouse had more than one love language? The key here is to love like you mean it! The K.I.S.S. ~ Love like you mean it!             Ultimately, Chapman wanted couples to get married and stay married. But there's more to it than five love languages. However, it's definitely a place to start.  If you're on the 20-yard line, and the goal is to go 80 yards down the field for a touchdown, you just can't stay where you're at.  You gotta get in the game of love! So let's talk about the five love languages.  <br />- Words of Affirmation - Everyone likes to feel appreciated, and your spouse is no exception. Show them that you are grateful for them by doing small things like leaving them a note of encouragement, or simply telling them how much they mean to you. A little appreciation can go a long way in making your spouse feel loved, appreciated, and affirmed. Your spouse feels loved when you tell them how much they mean to you and when you encourage them. So pause for a moment and give a compliment or words of encouragement. <br />- Quality Time - In today's busy world, it's easy to get caught up in work, social obligations, kid activities, and other responsibilities. But it's important to make time for each other. Set aside a date night, go on a weekend getaway, or simply spend an hour talking and sharing your day with each other. Your spouse feels loved when you give them your undivided attention. Quality time together will strengthen your bond and help you connect on a deeper level. <br />- Receiving Gifts - If your spouse's love language is Gifts, they feel loved and extra special when you give them a present, no matter how small. This could be a surprise bouquet of flowers, a piece of jewelry, or simply a love note. Showing your spouse that you are thinking of them with a thoughtful gift can make them feel loved and appreciated. And be creative. You don't have to break the bank to love your spouse. <br />- Acts of Service - Actions speak louder than words, and nothing says "I love you" like a selfless act of service. Whether it's cooking dinner, doing the dishes, or running an errand, these small acts of kindness can mean a lot to your spouse and show them that you are there for them. Your spouse feels loved when you do things for them. And if you don't know what to do, simply ask this question. "What can I do for you today?" "How can I serve you?" <br />- Physical Touch - When you touch your spouse, it lights up their soul. This could be a hug, a kiss, or simply holding hands. Physical touch is be a powerful way to show your love and affection to your spouse. <br /> Love is a powerful emotion which requires extreme effort and care to maintain and build up. Love like you mean it; your spouse will feel it. QUESTION: What can you do today to love your spouse?             "Be present. Be incredible.

I can remember my dad back in the day preaching sermons on Super Bowl Sunday with lessons we can learn from a game of football.  But as I got older, I totally understood where he was coming from. Quite creative in my little mind.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Drop some valued balls!             Let's have some fun with this one!  <br />-  The Importance of Teamwork (Collaboration) - One of the key aspects of the Super Bowl is the teamwork displayed by both teams. Players work together to achieve a common goal, and the result is a thrilling game that showcases the best of what a team can do. Your children can learn that working together with others can help achieve a common goal and lead to greater success.  <br />-  Perseverance and Determination -  Many of the players in the Super Bowl have overcome obstacles and challenges to get where they are today. From injuries to setbacks, they have persevered and continued to work towards their goal. Your children can learn from these players that with determination and perseverance, they too can overcome obstacles and reach their own goals.  <br />-  Sportsmanship - The Super Bowl is a showcase of some of the best athletes in the world, but it's also a display of good sportsmanship. Players show respect for each other, and for the game itself. Your children can learn that it's not just about winning, but about respecting others and playing the game with integrity.  <br />-  The Power of Practice - The players in the Super Bowl have spent countless hours practicing and perfecting their skills. Your children can learn that with hard work and practice, they too can achieve great things. Whether they're pursuing a sport, a hobby or a career, practice can help them reach their goals.  <br />-  The Value of Preparation - The teams in the Super Bowl prepare for months leading up to the big game. They analyze their opponents, practice their plays, and make sure they're ready for anything that might come their way. Your children can learn from this that preparation is key to success, and that taking the time to get ready can lead to greater success in all areas of life.  <br />               "Be present.

Instead of hunting for what comes easy, why not look for what takes work. Seize the risks. In life, we are often faced with decisions that require us to weigh the pros and the cons; the potential benefits against the possible risks.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   This is especially true when it comes to pursuing opportunities and seeing the possibilities. While playing it safe may seem like the easier option, taking calculated risks is often the key to unlocking the door of opportunity. The greatest opportunity you pursue may seem the biggest risk you take with the greatest reward. The K.I.S.S. ~ Seize the risks!             This is because the most rewarding opportunities often require the most effort, courage, and determination; it's called work. Anything worth having requires work. However, taking risks is not just about jumping headfirst into the ocean. <ul> <li>Weigh the potential benefits and drawbacks (pros and cons)</li> <li>Consider your options; what is best in this season?</li> <li>Making deliberate decisions.</li> </ul> QUESTION: What has come into your life that you knew you needed to pay attention to, but was too concerned or afraid of the risks? Now this is not to make you feel like you missed something. It's to bring to the forefront something that happened in the past that you can learn from. <ul> <li>Were there any patterns to other decisions you made recently?</li> <li>What might you have done differently to see more of the positive than then negative (opportunity vs. risk)?</li> <li>How could you use the "feelings" that you got to make some changes to other opportunities that will come your way?</li> </ul> Seize the risks. Make sure you perform your due diligence and be methodical in your research. But don't let what didn't happen overwhelm your decisions in the present.  PRAYER: May your heart be open to what God has in store for you here on earth. Give the worry to Him and allow Him to become a strategic partner in your every day. Life doesn't have to be consumed by overwhelm. You can overcome.             "Be present. Be incredible.

However, taking risks is not just about jumping headfirst into the ocean. <ul> <li>Weigh the potential benefits and drawbacks (pros and cons)</li> <li>Consider your options; what is best in this season?</li> <li>Making deliberate decisions.</li> </ul> QUESTION: What has come into your life that you knew you needed to pay attention to, but was too concerned or afraid of the risks? Now this is not to make you feel like you missed something. It's to bring to the forefront something that happened in the past that you can learn from. <ul> <li>Were there any patterns to other decisions you made recently?</li> <li>What might you have done differently to see more of the positive than then negative (opportunity vs. risk)?</li> <li>How could you use the "feelings" that you got to make some changes to other opportunities that will come your way?</li> </ul> Seize the risks. Make sure you perform your due diligence and be methodical in your research. But don't let what didn't happen overwhelm your decisions in the present.  PRAYER: May your heart be open to what God has in store for you here on earth. Give the worry to Him and allow Him to become a strategic partner in your every day. Life doesn't have to be consumed by overwhelm. You can overcome.             "Be present. Be incredible.

So why not enjoy the food on this great earth to serve a body who does well every day. It's a taste of something good. Have you looked at your calendar? The Super Bowl is Sunday, February 12th. Are you freaking out? Maybe you're trying to figure out the menu as we speak.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Or do you not care?  But if I can be ever so real with you. Living a healthy lifestyle doesn't mean doing what you want when it's easy. It's about doing what is right majority of the time. Now you get to define what majority is for you. Some like the 80/20 rule. Others have to be 100% or nothing. There's no right or wrong; just what works. Because in the world we live in, it can be easy to overindulge and hurt our bodies. There is more package food there there is fresh food. Seems a little backwards.  Why are we eating food that's not real? So what if you could have your healthy lifestyle and enjoy a taste of something good? Would you take the challenge to do your body well? Of course you would. Let's create fresh and hearty recipes. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create fresh &amp; hearty recipes!             And they can't be just any recipes. You want to use as many fresh ingredients that you can.  Then, be sure to balance the meal you eat with proper macronutrients (fat, protein, carbs). When you do so, you'll feel more energized and have the endurance to get through your day without acting like a sloth.  A sloth hasn't won the Super Bowl! Keep your eyes focus on what's real. If there's more packaged food in the recipe, toss out the recipe. Stick to what your body craves. "When you don't look for what you don't see, you won't find what is missing." ~ Kristianne Wargo Some of what we need to do is find a way to take care of ourselves and still have fun. And that's what fresh &amp; hearty recipes are all about.  <br />-  Slow-Cooker Chili: This classic dish is a staple of any Superbowl party. Simply combine beef, beans, tomatoes, spices, and onions in a slow cooker and let it cook until the beef is tender. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheese, and cornbread for a comforting meal.  <br />-  Baked Sweet Potato Fries: A healthier alternative to traditional French fries, sweet potato fries are baked in the oven with a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. Serve as a side dish or as a snack.  <br />-  Grilled Chicken Wings: Marinate chicken wings in your favorite sauce, grill until crispy, and serve with a side of blue cheese dressing for dipping. A crowd-pleaser that is both healthy and delicious.  <br />-  Veggie Platter: Cut up a variety of fresh veggies, such as carrots, celery, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes, and serve with a healthy dip, like hummus or ranch. A great way to add some color and nutrition to your spread.  <br /> Eating doesn't have to be a chore. Eating doesn't have to wrinkle your nose. Eating can be enjoyed all the time; a taste for something good. So take what God has made and create some dishes that serve your body from the inside out. Let your family and friends know how much they're loved by the good food you serve. And remember, it's a party every day!! Enjoy each moment and live the life God designed for you!  PRAYER: <br />             "Be present. Be incredible.

How can you live without overwhelm and establish a line of credit, hope for every day? Silence the lies. Life is not all about what you accomplish, but also how you handle yourself during challenges and circumstances that throw you a curve ball. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It would sure be nice to sit back and enjoy all the roses and rainbows. But life is not that easy. And if it was, you wouldn't become who God desires you to be. "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." ~ Proverbs 27:17 (NIV) The K.I.S.S. ~ Silence the lies!             The one thing that hold us back is maintaining this need to be accepted. What if for a moment, you could remove that feeling? What would that do for you? Would that open up your heart to more of what you are wanting in life? Would you be able to dream more deeply? Would you be able to love more completely? And not just someone else, but specifically yourself. If you keep believing the whispers from afar, it will be near impossible for you to become who you are. Silence the lies that stir your heart. There you will be able to see from the start. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 God does not lie. So why not pay attention to what He is telling you. Silence the lies. Bury the overwhelm. Don't let worldly patterns and possessions cloud your actions.  Take A.I.M. – Action ignites motivation! You can bend to the whispers you hear, or lean into what God is saying and draw near. This is an ordinary day to be extraordinary.  PRAYER: <br />             "Be present. Be incredible.

How can you live without overwhelm and establish a line of credit, hope for every day? Silence the lies. Life is not all about what you accomplish, but also how you handle yourself during challenges and circumstances that throw you a curve ball. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   It would sure be nice to sit back and enjoy all the roses and rainbows. But life is not that easy. And if it was, you wouldn't become who God desires you to be. "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." ~ Proverbs 27:17 (NIV) The K.I.S.S. ~ Silence the lies!             The one thing that hold us back is maintaining this need to be accepted. What if for a moment, you could remove that feeling? What would that do for you? Would that open up your heart to more of what you are wanting in life? Would you be able to dream more deeply? Would you be able to love more completely? And not just someone else, but specifically yourself. If you keep believing the whispers from afar, it will be near impossible for you to become who you are. Silence the lies that stir your heart. There you will be able to see from the start. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 God does not lie. So why not pay attention to what He is telling you. Silence the lies. Bury the overwhelm. Don't let worldly patterns and possessions cloud your actions.  Take A.I.M. – Action ignites motivation! You can bend to the whispers you hear, or lean into what God is saying and draw near. This is an ordinary day to be extraordinary.  PRAYER: <br />             "Be present. Be incredible.

Life has its ups and downs, but you are definitely one who matters all around. Unfortunately, we get ourselves entangled with the faults and failures of our lives. We hunker down in the pits of despair because we can't perform up to the standards of the way people think and care. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   All that's left is for us to wallow in our sorrows. Who says who we are; insignificant and borrowed? The truth is that if you are one who ends up in this state of mind, you are most certainly living the lie of insignificance. And that's the last thing you should be thinking. Yet, it's a reality, too.  "Every single one of us has been imprinted with a formula that says our self-worth comes from our performance and others' opinions." ~ Chip Ingram Self-Worth = Performance + Others' Opinions Where do you look for significance? Most of us come from the perspective of compulsion or withdrawal. Compulsion - This is where we tend to be perfectionistic; driven to success, prone to workaholism, obsessed with appearance, and more.  Withdrawal - This is those who want to avoid failure, avoid risk, and gravitate toward others who are comforting and kind; a safe place.  But both of these tendencies hold us back. Now life becomes about everyone else, and you don't matter; the lie of insignificance. And if you want to continue to live this lie, you're caught in your own masquerade ball! You act one way to present yourself to others, and then turn around and act another way to be yourself.  So who are you really? And do you matter? YES, you do matter! But in order to know your value, you have to know who you are. The K.I.S.S. ~ Know who you are!             And this comes from self-reflection. You need to look at yourself honestly, and see who you see in the mirror. <ol> <li>Where do you act or pretend to be someone you're not? What are those situations, and who do they include? Find the patterns here, and you begin to dismantle the lie of insignificance.</li> <li>How have other people influenced your decisions, your actions, your thoughts, and your motives? When you begin to untether what has held you back from being who you are, then you can become who God designed you to be.</li> <li>Ultimately, you need to see God in your reflection. When you become who He desires you to be, then you are a living legacy; one who knows whose they are.</li> </ol> You are worthy! You are valued. You are significant.  The life you lead is by choice, but can be something greater than where you are today. But it takes you to silence the lies that hold you hostage every day. Discover who you are and live a life of freedom. No constraints; only invitations to be who God created you to become. PRAYER: <br /> Ephesians 1:4 (NLT) "Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes."             "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't hide from what you don't know. Lean in to whom you do know. Refresh your faith. Every morning when you awake, there are new mercies. (Lamentations 3:23) Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But you have to ready your heart to choose to accept what God offers. I don't know about you, but when I awake, there are days that the weight on my shoulders seems too great to bear. Yet, I carry all the baggage everywhere I go that day.  And if something else happens, I just pile it on and continue on with my day.  Soon, I'm buried in the CRAP that I'm choosing not to leave at the foot of the cross.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Refresh your faith!             What God desires is for you to be accepting of His love and grace. Now, He could force it upon you and me.   It wouldn't be love if you didn't have a choice.  What God wants from you most is for you to choose Him. He doesn't want to pressure you or require you. He wants you to say YES by CHOICE!  Are you willing to do that every day? Are you willing to rise up when you awake and say, "Yes, Lord!"?  Are you willing to leave your worldly distractions at the foot of the cross and focus on His heavenly plans for you here on earth?  When we walk with God, it's a daily commitment. It's not a one-and-done. God  wants to commune with you. He wants all of you, not your leftovers, not just your 911 calls.  Yes, He will always be there with you. But He wants you to always be there with Him.  So what do your days look like?  Is there room for God? Are you willing to make space and time for Him?  Are you ready to refresh your faith on a daily basis?  You don't have to be perfect. You just get to be you; fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalm 139:14) PRAYER: May the Lord's presence fill your day with hope, love, and joy. With each step your take, may it move your heart one step closer to God's. This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24)             "Be present. Be incredible.

Lean in to whom you do know. Refresh your faith. Every morning when you awake, there are new mercies. (Lamentations 3:23) Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But you have to ready your heart to choose to accept what God offers. I don't know about you, but when I awake, there are days that the weight on my shoulders seems too great to bear. Yet, I carry all the baggage everywhere I go that day.  And if something else happens, I just pile it on and continue on with my day.  Soon, I'm buried in the CRAP that I'm choosing not to leave at the foot of the cross.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Refresh your faith!             What God desires is for you to be accepting of His love and grace. Now, He could force it upon you and me.   It wouldn't be love if you didn't have a choice.  What God wants from you most is for you to choose Him. He doesn't want to pressure you or require you. He wants you to say YES by CHOICE!  Are you willing to do that every day? Are you willing to rise up when you awake and say, "Yes, Lord!"?  Are you willing to leave your worldly distractions at the foot of the cross and focus on His heavenly plans for you here on earth?  When we walk with God, it's a daily commitment. It's not a one-and-done. God  wants to commune with you. He wants all of you, not your leftovers, not just your 911 calls.  Yes, He will always be there with you. But He wants you to always be there with Him.  So what do your days look like?  Is there room for God? Are you willing to make space and time for Him?  Are you ready to refresh your faith on a daily basis?  You don't have to be perfect. You just get to be you; fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalm 139:14) PRAYER: May the Lord's presence fill your day with hope, love, and joy. With each step your take, may it move your heart one step closer to God's. This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24)             "Be present. Be incredible.

In fact, we lose all control once we have them in our lives. Kids are disruptors! They don't keep to a system, a routine, nor do they have a guidebook. We are floundering, doing our best in impossible situations. But as you know, consistency does play a huge part in raising children. However, there are times that your child will come to you, if they haven't already, and say they want something different than what's being done. How will you handle it? Will you go along with their plea to quit, change classes, not go to school, skip work, or break it off with a friend or someone they're dating? Having kids is a risk to those who become parents.

If he doesn't see his shadow, six weeks til Spring. So maybe Phil is looking backward instead of forward. It symbolizes how often we get stuck in patterns and routines that prevent us from seeing what lies ahead. By constantly focusing on the past and those obstacles, we risk missing out on the rewards of looking forward to new opportunities. If you're like Phil Conners, the weatherman in the movie, Groundhog Day, keeping the attitude that the assignment of covering the story of a groundhog was beneath him; it kept him in the same cycle.

"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." ~ Isaiah 43:18-19 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

Let this Groundhog Day remind you that while it’s important to reflect on your past experiences, it’s equally important to embrace new opportunities. So, whether you see your shadow today or not, make a commitment to look forward and see what God has in store for you.

But most lifestyle changes take small, daily habits to create a cumulative effect. So what first fruits for daily impact can you implement? Now these grand gestures might appear to be the easiest way to make a big impact.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But the truth is that small, daily habits have greater power in making your actions stick, to creating these daily habits. Here are some tips for making the most of your daily routine and cultivating a healthier lifestyle. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now!             <ol> <li> Hydrate: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and flush out toxins. Aim for at least 8 glasses a day. This is in line with the biblical principle of taking care of the temple of the Holy Spirit, which is our body (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). </li> <li> Move your body: Physical activity is crucial for maintaining good health. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise each day, whether that’s a brisk walk, pilates, or strength training. This aligns with the biblical principle of taking care of our bodies and treating them with dignity (1 Corinthians 6:20). </li> <li> Fuel up with nutrition: Eat a balanced diet that’s rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins will provide your body with the nutrients it needs to function optimally. Avoid processed and junk food as much as possible. Stay out of the box!! The Bible speaks of eating food that is nourishing and sustaining (Ecclesiastes 3:13). </li> <li> Get enough sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night to give your body the rest it needs to repair and recharge. The Bible speaks of the importance of rest and renewing our strength (Exodus 31:17). </li> <li> Manage stress: Chronic stress can have a negative impact on your health, so it’s important to find ways to manage it. Whether it’s through meditation, exercise, or spending time with loved ones, find what works for you and make it a daily habit. The Bible speaks of the peace that comes from trusting in God and casting our worries upon Him (Psalm 55:22). </li> <li> Practice gratitude: Taking the time to appreciate the good things in your life can help boost your mood and overall well-being. Try writing down three things you’re thankful for each day. Gratitude is a biblical principle, and the Bible encourages us to give thanks in all circumstances (1 Thessalonians 5:18). </li> </ol> PRAYER: May you give yourself the opportunity to live the life God has for you. Be bold in the nutrition you eat. Be diligent in the movements you make. Be consistent in the sleep you take. Be confident in renewing your mind daily. This is your day to impact the world that you touch.              "Be present. Be incredible.

Victory brings about feelings of joy and jubilee. Now, you may not think failures feel the same way. But how you choose to respond to those failures can be the difference maker in your life.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Gracious in victory. With any form of success (or even failure), the outcome pushes you in one direction or another. The temptation to believe that you did it all by yourself can then send you in a spiral with your pride and ego. It's easy to become caught up in your own accomplishments and to let pride and ego take over. However, in order to really experience the gift of your success, your achievement, and your hard work, it is important to remain humble and to show gratitude not just to yourself and the process, but respecting those who have helped you along the way. Gracious in victory. "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." ~ Proverbs 16:18 By avoiding pride and remaining gracious, you not only honor yourself and those who have supported you, but you also set a positive example for others to follow. You become a role model. The K.I.S.S. ~ Gracious in victory!             Now consider the influence of your success on others. It's important to remember that everyone has their own battles to fight and their own victories to achieve. When you approach your own success with a gracious attitude, you can build bridges and foster positive relationships, rather than creating division and animosity. There doesn't need to be comparison from either side. So how would you feel if you looked at your accomplishments and failures with the same tone... gracious in victory? What would that do for your confidence? How would that build you up and others?  Your influence is a greatness if you choose to accept the challenge God has given each of us.  Gracious in victory. Love, kindness, humility, and gratitude should be the hallmarks of your victories, no matter how big or small they may be. And even when you feel like you lost, you still show up as if you won. Because you did!!           PRAYER: Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)  23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Victory brings about feelings of joy and jubilee. Now, you may not think failures feel the same way. But how you choose to respond to those failures can be the difference maker in your life.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Gracious in victory. With any form of success (or even failure), the outcome pushes you in one direction or another. The temptation to believe that you did it all by yourself can then send you in a spiral with your pride and ego. It's easy to become caught up in your own accomplishments and to let pride and ego take over. However, in order to really experience the gift of your success, your achievement, and your hard work, it is important to remain humble and to show gratitude not just to yourself and the process, but respecting those who have helped you along the way. Gracious in victory. "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." ~ Proverbs 16:18 By avoiding pride and remaining gracious, you not only honor yourself and those who have supported you, but you also set a positive example for others to follow. You become a role model. The K.I.S.S. ~ Gracious in victory!             Now consider the influence of your success on others. It's important to remember that everyone has their own battles to fight and their own victories to achieve. When you approach your own success with a gracious attitude, you can build bridges and foster positive relationships, rather than creating division and animosity. There doesn't need to be comparison from either side. So how would you feel if you looked at your accomplishments and failures with the same tone... gracious in victory? What would that do for your confidence? How would that build you up and others?  Your influence is a greatness if you choose to accept the challenge God has given each of us.  Gracious in victory. Love, kindness, humility, and gratitude should be the hallmarks of your victories, no matter how big or small they may be. And even when you feel like you lost, you still show up as if you won. Because you did!!           PRAYER: Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)  23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Or are you playing hardball? What if you were to open the door? What if you were to "Be still" so you could "know" what God wants for you?

And not just the comfort of knowing He's got you. But truly hearing from Him. The K.I.S.S. ~ I stand at the door and knock!             Are you a willing participant in God's plan for your life? Or are you playing hardball? What if you were to open the door? What if you were to "Be still" so you could "know" what God wants for you? With all the distractions and displaced feelings that become more self-centered rather than heavenly-focused, it's easy to want that control. It's easy to tell yourself, you've got the answers. PRAYER: May you take moments in your day to "Be still and know.", letting your heart soften toward hearing God's nudges for your life. Unwrap the gift of God's presence daily so you can do "immeasurably more."              "Be present. Be incredible.

The flame goes out. Same with marriage. If you don't give your marriage the right fuel, the flame goes out. The K.I.S.S. ~ Add the right fuel to your marriage every day!             1. COMMUNICATION - One of the most important things that fuels a marriage is communication. When you and your spouse can communicate effectively, you're able to understand each other's needs and wants, then you can work together to find solutions to problems that arise. And remember that part of communicating is listening. 2. TRUST - Another important factor is trust. Trust is the foundation of any strong relationship, and it is crucial in a marriage. When you trust your spouse, you believe in their integrity and reliability, and you know that they have your best interests at heart. A marriage cannot survive without trust. 3. RESPECT - A third important factor is respect. Respect is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship, and it's essential in marriage. When you treat your spouse with kindness, consideration, and compassion, and value their opinions and feelings, you are exhibiting respect. And with respect, you're able to build a strong foundation of mutual understanding and support (compromise). PRAYER: May your thoughts, words, and actions lead with kindness and love toward your spouse. Even in the midst of challenges, remember the reason you fell in love.

Don't fall into the traps of misplaced hurt and blame. Spill over with grace. I'm sure you've experienced a few frustrations that have led you down the road of yelling and screaming, proclaiming how you're right, and your children are wrong.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Guilty as charged. As parents, it's easy to get caught up in the idea of right and wrong, especially when it comes to our children. We want them to make good choices, behave well, and do well in school. We want them to find their career, a great spouse, and make a beautiful life for themselves. But it's important to remember that they are human and will make mistakes. When they do, rather than getting angry or punishing them, some circumstances call for a response of grace and understanding.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Spill over with grace!             Now, if it's a blood or flood moment, then you may have to be a little more direct in your discipline and response to their actions.  However, I want to challenge you to think outside the box. What if you were cool, calm, and collected? A Poem from My Grandma, Jan Bass (By K.J. Ramsey, The Book of Common Courage) I searched and search<br /> And could not find<br /> A single place for rest<br /> Until the hand of Jesus<br /> Drew me close unto His breast. He said, My little child,<br /> I see in you no blame.<br /> You are of My choosing. You're the very reason I came. I said, My Father God,<br /> What with me would you then do? And He said, Child, child of mine, <br /> I want only to love you. If there was only you<br /> And I knew of no other, <br /> Still I would come,<br /> That I could be your brother. You must begin with your own life-giving lives. It’s who you are, not what you say and do, that counts. Your true being brims over into true words and deeds. — Luke 6:34 MSG You want to train up your child to know that regardless of what they do, you will still love them. Now, you also need to make it clear that it doesn't mean you approve of everything they do. But mom, dad... You are called to love unconditionally. To extend the grace that was extended to you by God.  There are moments in life when you need to just sit with your child. You need to let them feel their emotions and wrestle with the feelings, knowing that you are always going to love them.  But if your response to their mishaps and failures is all about what they did wrong, how will they ever feel they did right in your eyes? Spill over with grace. My daughter shared with me a story back in the day when she was in middle school. I don't remember the details specifically, but she knew that I would not be happy with what happened. So instead of hiding whatever it was, she told me about it.  And then her life was changed. I remained very calm and approached her with a hug, holding her in the moment.  "Mom -- I thought you were going to be so mad. You scared me to death." Her thinking was that I would lay into her and get really mad. And when I didn't, she was more scared. Sometimes the sting of the event is worse than your disappointment in them.  Spill over with grace.           PRAYER: May your words carry wisdom to the hearts of your children, while you're steadfast in your love for them. Hold tight to what you know is true. Serve with kindness, love with compassion, and stand firm in peace.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Stop pleasing and start living. Prioritize what matters most in your life.  One of the greatest letdowns in life is not living out our dreams. We strive for everyone else's success (kids, big business, community, etc.), but leave ourselves stranded on the sidelines. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   We think about our dreams and revisit them once in a while, almost as if they have been sentenced to life in prison without parole.  Now, that may sound a little harsh. But let's stop dancing around the subject. Life throws you curve balls every day. And it's in those moments where you make a split-second decision on what to do next. What if you were to change your decisions to focus more on what you want out of life? That doesn't mean you are leaving those you love behind. In fact, you will be able to give them more as you move forward with clarity. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prioritize what matters most in your life!             Give an honest review of how you are living currently. Don't get all down on yourself, but do allow yourself to feel your emotions. Then, click your heels three times and declare what you want for this season of your life. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1 So what are those activities for you, your spouse, and your family? What does a beautiful, productive day look like when you unshackle your dreams and give your mind permission to fly? "When you remove the restrictions, you gain resolutions." ~ Kristianne Wargo God made you on purpose for a purpose. Look at your day with passion in your step and hope for brighter moments.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo           PRAYER: May your energy expand as you ponder God-size dreams. Let the unknown spark the adventurous soul within, making way for dreaming again. As your emotions move up and down and all around, cling to the talents and gifts God gave you. You are a beautiful soul. Create your now and go impact the world you touch!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Prioritize what matters most in your life.  One of the greatest letdowns in life is not living out our dreams. We strive for everyone else's success (kids, big business, community, etc.), but leave ourselves stranded on the sidelines. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   We think about our dreams and revisit them once in a while, almost as if they have been sentenced to life in prison without parole.  Now, that may sound a little harsh. But let's stop dancing around the subject. Life throws you curve balls every day. And it's in those moments where you make a split-second decision on what to do next. What if you were to change your decisions to focus more on what you want out of life? That doesn't mean you are leaving those you love behind. In fact, you will be able to give them more as you move forward with clarity. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prioritize what matters most in your life!             Give an honest review of how you are living currently. Don't get all down on yourself, but do allow yourself to feel your emotions. Then, click your heels three times and declare what you want for this season of your life. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1 So what are those activities for you, your spouse, and your family? What does a beautiful, productive day look like when you unshackle your dreams and give your mind permission to fly? "When you remove the restrictions, you gain resolutions." ~ Kristianne Wargo God made you on purpose for a purpose. Look at your day with passion in your step and hope for brighter moments.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo           PRAYER: May your energy expand as you ponder God-size dreams. Let the unknown spark the adventurous soul within, making way for dreaming again. As your emotions move up and down and all around, cling to the talents and gifts God gave you. You are a beautiful soul. Create your now and go impact the world you touch!   "Be present. Be incredible.

No matter your focus, consistency is essential for achieving and maintaining good health and happiness. So what are you really good at? Eating? Sleeping? Dodging your new year's resolutions?

But you know it doesn't come easy. So stop trying to fool yourself.  Instead, sure up your foundation and build consistency every day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build consistency every day!             One of the most important ways to build consistency is creating good habits that work for you, not against you.  You want the good habits to stick and the bad habits to be less appealing. Notice I didn't say removed completely. It's hard to teach old dogs new tricks. Habits are hard to break, but they can be stacked.   <br />-  Habit stack a daily routine. Most of us live by habits. Think about it. We barely use 10% of our brains. Scary, but true. So take the time to habit stack. Create what works toward your goals. Do it over a period of time, no rushing, creating a sense of routine that is controlled. And who doesn't want control?  <br />-  Maintenance seals the habit daily. How you choose to show up is how you will continue to care for yourself. Think about how you care for your car. If you never change your car's oil, do you think it will last much beyond 3 years? Probably not. Or it might be with a full engine overhaul. You want to always lean toward caring for and letting go of pushing all the time.  <br />-  Repetition develops consistency. This is the pattern driver. The more often you do something, the more consistent it becomes. If you practice positive thinking and self-talk, do you think that will build your negative talk muscle? NO! "What you practice, you progress in. So live out who you want to be." ~ Kristianne Wargo  <br /> Consistency is a crucial aspect of well-being; the foundation on which healthy habits are built and sustained. When you commit to becoming consistent, you can improve your overall well-being and lead a happier, healthier life.           PRAYER: May your mirror reflect your actions that change your heart and health for the better. Don't rush your goals, but stay consistent with your actions.

Don't get stuck in regrets, worries, failures, and fears. Fix your eyes forward. Because dwelling on what doesn't serve you, everything in the past, can lead you to have an attitude of status quo. Why try anymore? It's easier to hang out where you are. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, you have to be realistic, too. If you want to change where you are in life, you have to change your environment. You have to change your thoughts. You have to change who you hang out with. You have to change what you daily. You can't lose weight if you keep eating what you've been eating. You can't have a better relationship with your spouse if you keep doing what you've been doing. You can't get a better job if you don't improve your skills or even look for one. To out from the shade of failure and disbelief, you gotta fix your eyes forward.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Fix your eyes forward!             13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 3:13-14 You cannot focus on your past failures and think you can move forward. It's counterintuitive. So instead of striving for what you didn't do, fix your eyes forward on the goal God has set for you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you.<br /> 26 Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.<br /> 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil. ~ Proverbs 4:25-27 Stay focused on your goals at hand. Don't get distracted by things that will lead you away from your passion and purpose. When you let go of regrets, worries, failures, and fears, it makes a way for you to hone in on the goals and aspirations God has set for you. And when you do this, you gain the strength and perspective you need to take the next steps.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo           PRAYER: May your eyes see the vision God has in store for you. Stay grounded in your next step. Don't waiver when the going gets tough. Lean in and look up. Fix your eyes forward.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Don't get stuck in regrets, worries, failures, and fears. Fix your eyes forward. Because dwelling on what doesn't serve you, everything in the past, can lead you to have an attitude of status quo. Why try anymore? It's easier to hang out where you are. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   However, you have to be realistic, too. If you want to change where you are in life, you have to change your environment. You have to change your thoughts. You have to change who you hang out with. You have to change what you daily. You can't lose weight if you keep eating what you've been eating. You can't have a better relationship with your spouse if you keep doing what you've been doing. You can't get a better job if you don't improve your skills or even look for one. To out from the shade of failure and disbelief, you gotta fix your eyes forward.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Fix your eyes forward!             13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 3:13-14 You cannot focus on your past failures and think you can move forward. It's counterintuitive. So instead of striving for what you didn't do, fix your eyes forward on the goal God has set for you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you.<br /> 26 Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.<br /> 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil. ~ Proverbs 4:25-27 Stay focused on your goals at hand. Don't get distracted by things that will lead you away from your passion and purpose. When you let go of regrets, worries, failures, and fears, it makes a way for you to hone in on the goals and aspirations God has set for you. And when you do this, you gain the strength and perspective you need to take the next steps.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo           PRAYER: May your eyes see the vision God has in store for you. Stay grounded in your next step. Don't waiver when the going gets tough. Lean in and look up. Fix your eyes forward.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Often, it's about understanding how failure is a stepping stone on the path to success. When you feel like you're losing, consider it pure joy. When you aren't seeing the results you desire or feel like you deserve, it can be easy to feel defeated and lose sight of the bigger picture. But intuitively, you know that every failure is an opportunity to learn and grow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Now, that doesn't make it easier to just pick up where you fell off. You're human. There might be a little wallowing or pity party happening.  But what if you could look at your failure from a joyful perspective? What if you could see the bigger picture? What if you could present yourself in a manner that allows you to be in the moment, but not be cemented in the moment? "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." ~ James 1:2-4 The K.I.S.S. ~ Persevere to finish the work!              <br />-  RENEW your mind. One of the most powerful ways to win when all you do is lose is to renew your mind. You've gotta shift your perspective and look at failure in a different light. Instead of viewing it as a setback, see it as a comeback, an opportunity to learn and improve. Those are teachable moments. When you're open to new ideas and ways of thinking, you'll be able to see opportunities that you may have missed before or glanced over. "Even a closed door can be an open door." ~ Kristianne Wargo You "don't want to conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. (Romans 12:2)"  <br />-  READY to be UNSETTLED. Comfort is for the weak at heart. Instead, look forward to the unknown and embrace the adventure of pioneering your day in a way that is well-lived. When you're comfortable, you're not pushing yourself to be your best. But when you're challenged and uncomfortable, you're forced to step out of your comfort zone and push yourself to be better. "By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going." ~ Hebrews 11:8  <br />-  CREATE your now. You want to have a thorough strategy and plan in place. Identifying your goals and create a plan to achieve them. And don't forget to exhaust your "I'm not good enough" silent plea and ready your mind to yell, "the best is yet to come." When you have a clear plan and a positive attitude, you'll be able to see that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to.  <br /> "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he will direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 Don't fall short because of your failures. Let your failures create your now in leading you to do what God created you to do. Consider it pure joy!

(Psalm 23:1)" The 23rd Psalm is one that has always been a place of refuge from anything happening in my life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Your refuge might be found in the following examples. <ul> <li>Maybe you find yourself as a people-pleaser.</li> <li>You could be living a life of worldly desires, not heavenly-driven.</li> <li>You may react from a scarcity mindset.</li> <li>You are trapped in a corner of loneliness.</li> <li>You're not good enough.</li> <li>You cling more to the flesh and not what God wants for you.</li> <li>You might be running just to run.</li> <li>You could be making decisions based on previous failures.</li> <li>Maybe you fear more than you trust.</li> </ul> Your vision is limited compared to God's. And that's when He steps in.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Taste the goodness of God!             Psalm 23 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. David knew the responsibilities and the importance of being a shepherd. And that's how he saw God for himself. God was his shepherd; a provider, a protector, a potter. A shepherd cares for his sheep no matter what; good, bad, or ugly. He creates nothing out of something. He feeds and waters the sheep. He fulfills their needs. That is how David saw God; his Shepherd. And even in the darkest times, he knew in his heart that God walked with him. Never did he have to fear. Never did he have to be alone.  Draw near to God. He is watching out for you always, regardless of where you are today.           PRAYER: May your days be blessed by the power and presence of our Lord. May your flames of greatness grow hotter as the temptations of fears and failures are reduced to ashes. "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. (Psalm 23:1)"   "Be present. Be incredible.

And that's when He steps in.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Taste the goodness of God!             Psalm 23 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. David knew the responsibilities and the importance of being a shepherd. And that's how he saw God for himself. God was his shepherd; a provider, a protector, a potter.

Celebrate your love for each other! You've heard me speak about how to build a strong foundation in your marriage, what you can do daily, and strategies and tools to work as a team and not as enemies.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But what's put on the back burner is what's going well in your marriage. <ul> <li>How you are loving on your spouse.</li> <li>The little things you do every day.</li> <li>The kind words you speak.</li> <li>The patience you extend when you really want to get mad.</li> <li>Listening and not talking always.</li> <li>Serving from a selfless posture.</li> </ul> As a married couple, you made a commitment to love, honor, and cherish one another. And this is something to be celebrated. The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate your love!             There are some ways to look at your marriage and genuinely see the beauty even in the ashes (you know, like after a heated discussion). <ol> <li> Prioritize your marriage. One of the things you are doing right is prioritizing your marriage. "That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh." (Genesis 2:24) This verse reminds us that marriage is about leaving behind your individual life and becoming one with your spouse. When you put your relationship first, you are demonstrating the depth of your love and commitment to one another. Now you aren't sacrificing your dreams and your individuality. But that doesn't mean there might not be some shifts and pivots in life. Yet, you make those decisions as a team. </li> <li> Build together. Another thing that you are doing right in your marriage is that you are working together to build a strong foundation for your relationship. Building a strong marriage takes effort and hard work, but the rewards are well worth it. Now, that doesn't mean you won't argue. That doesn't mean you won't get mad and want something different at times. But by working together to build that strong foundation for your relationship, you set yourself up for a lifetime of love and happiness. </li> <li> Commit time together. You might understand prioritizing your marriage, but time isn't always on your side. That's where you need to make time. Put date nights on the calendar, even if it's at home. Commit every day. You have to make time to connect, not just in passing but in holding.  </li> </ol>           PRAYER: May your words, thoughts, and actions show the love God has for you by how you love your spouse.

But what if you were to redefine failure fast and start seeing it as an opportunity for growth? When you take a moment to think about failure itself, we have been conditioned to believe that failure is a sign of weakness. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But what if you could make it your strength? Think about it, when we make a mistake, we are given the chance to learn from it and to do better next time. Failure is not a dead-end, but a stepping stone on the path to success. It's through your failures that you learn and grow as an individual. Failure is not something to be feared, but embraced. "For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again." ~ Proverbs 24:16 The verse illustrates that even the most righteous among us will fall, but it is important to rise again. This means that even the most successful people have failed at some point in their lives; it's just a matter of how they handle it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Redefine failure fast!             Michael Jordan is known for being one of the best basketball players of all time, but he also missed thousands of shots and lost hundreds of games in his career. Thomas Edison, who is known as one of the greatest inventors of all time, failed over a thousand times before finally inventing the light bulb. These examples show that failure is not a setback, but an opportunity for growth and progress. So, the next time you encounter failure, don't let it hold you back. Embrace it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Remember that failure is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of progress. Watching the Australian Open Round 2, American Jenson Brooksby was ahead of Casper Rudd (2) in the third set. But he dropped his lead when Rudd broke back to win the third set. Now, another set, another fight. But what you didn't see was the battle in his head. He missed the opportunity to finish the match in the third set, by giving up 3 points. It changed everything, especially his mind. Brooksby was caught up in the failure. He couldn't get passed what he didn't complete.  So in order to overcome, he had to redefine failure fast, which led him to beat Rudd in the fourth set and head into the third round of the Australian Open. "Failure is a part of the process of life, and without it, you have no success." ~ Kristianne Wargo Redefine failure fast.            PRAYER: May your stumbles be stepping stones to what God desires for you. Focus not on the failures at hand, but the action of rising again in the moment of question. God's got you. Walk by faith. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if you were to redefine failure fast and start seeing it as an opportunity for growth? When you take a moment to think about failure itself, we have been conditioned to believe that failure is a sign of weakness. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   But what if you could make it your strength? Think about it, when we make a mistake, we are given the chance to learn from it and to do better next time. Failure is not a dead-end, but a stepping stone on the path to success. It's through your failures that you learn and grow as an individual. Failure is not something to be feared, but embraced. "For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again." ~ Proverbs 24:16 The verse illustrates that even the most righteous among us will fall, but it is important to rise again. This means that even the most successful people have failed at some point in their lives; it's just a matter of how they handle it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Redefine failure fast!             Michael Jordan is known for being one of the best basketball players of all time, but he also missed thousands of shots and lost hundreds of games in his career. Thomas Edison, who is known as one of the greatest inventors of all time, failed over a thousand times before finally inventing the light bulb. These examples show that failure is not a setback, but an opportunity for growth and progress. So, the next time you encounter failure, don't let it hold you back. Embrace it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Remember that failure is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of progress. Watching the Australian Open Round 2, American Jenson Brooksby was ahead of Casper Rudd (2) in the third set. But he dropped his lead when Rudd broke back to win the third set. Now, another set, another fight. But what you didn't see was the battle in his head. He missed the opportunity to finish the match in the third set, by giving up 3 points. It changed everything, especially his mind. Brooksby was caught up in the failure. He couldn't get passed what he didn't complete.  So in order to overcome, he had to redefine failure fast, which led him to beat Rudd in the fourth set and head into the third round of the Australian Open. "Failure is a part of the process of life, and without it, you have no success." ~ Kristianne Wargo Redefine failure fast.            PRAYER: May your stumbles be stepping stones to what God desires for you. Focus not on the failures at hand, but the action of rising again in the moment of question. God's got you. Walk by faith. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't leave your lifestyle to chance. What you do for yourself matters. Win the morning, win the day! No one likes to be told what to do, no matter their age. However, there are many things we can learn from research. And one of those things is how to create a healthy living routine. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

"In their hearts humans plan their course,<br />     but the Lord establishes their steps." ~ Proverbs 16:9 So does that mean you can still rule your day? Absolutely!! That's why we get into trouble. The distractions pile up, and the next thing you know, you're handling everyone else's fire and leaving your health behind. Mornings matter, and how you choose to structure your mornings have a lasting impact on your health. Win the morning, win the day! The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish an essential AM routine!             That essential AM routine starts the minute your eyes open; your morning routine has begun. Developing small, energizing habits after you leave your pillow can help you conquer even the craziest, chaotic days. Instead of getting caught up in checking emails or scrolling through social media, racing to get the kiddos ready for the day, start with some “me" time. But I don't want it to be the typical routine that you think of when making your new year's resolutions.  It's the affirmative "I AM..." statements that propel you forward toward your goal. "What you seek, you will find." ~ Kristianne Wargo Even if you only have a short period of time in the morning, establishing a routine allows you to move through your day in a more relaxed way. It's not about how much time you have, but what you do with that time.  <br />- I AM strong. <br />- I AM beautiful. <br />- I AM energized. <br />- I AM physical. <br />- I AM love. <br />- I AM focused. <br />- I AM content. <br />- I AM joyful. <br /> The "I AM..." statements are to tantalize your senses to gain what you know to be true when you go out and do. This is your head and heart work for your healthy living!           PRAYER: Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans."   "Train for life.

Find peace and contentment, not by your doings, but when you stand in the middle of God's will. You may find yourself questioning where you are in life. But that doesn't mean you have to choose to stay there, leaning on your old excuses. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Stand in the middle of God's will. "The steps of a man are established by the Lord, and He delights in his way." ~ Psalm 37:23 It's not up to you to figure everything out. Yes, you need to take A.I.M. and focus where God leads. But that means you are walking by faith in step with Him. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo It's easy to stay grounded in what you know and stay even-keeled with what you don't. Sometimes it's better not to rock the boat unless it's absolutely necessary. Or is it? The K.I.S.S. ~ Stand in the middle!             Distractions run so deep nowadays. Keeping the focus is truly more of the challenges than the circumstance itself. Do what you know how to do because God is leading the way. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 When you put your trust in God and seek to understand His will for your life, He will guide you and give you the wisdom to make decisions. And another thing... Don't be overly worried or consumed by what isn't working.  6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 4:6-7 When you pray and give your worries and concerns to God, He will give you peace and help you to focus on His will for your life. So stand is in the middle of God's will. Trust the instincts that God has given you and trust in Him. Cling to the peace that God's presence offers, so you can rest knowing that you don't have to worry, because tomorrow will worry about itself. (Matthew 6:34)           PRAYER: May your heart delight in the plans God has for you. Stop struggling to make things perfect in an imperfect world. Trust that God has your best interest at His heart. He will direct your paths.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Find peace and contentment, not by your doings, but when you stand in the middle of God's will. You may find yourself questioning where you are in life. But that doesn't mean you have to choose to stay there, leaning on your old excuses. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Stand in the middle of God's will. "The steps of a man are established by the Lord, and He delights in his way." ~ Psalm 37:23 It's not up to you to figure everything out. Yes, you need to take A.I.M. and focus where God leads. But that means you are walking by faith in step with Him. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo It's easy to stay grounded in what you know and stay even-keeled with what you don't. Sometimes it's better not to rock the boat unless it's absolutely necessary. Or is it? The K.I.S.S. ~ Stand in the middle!             Distractions run so deep nowadays. Keeping the focus is truly more of the challenges than the circumstance itself. Do what you know how to do because God is leading the way. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 When you put your trust in God and seek to understand His will for your life, He will guide you and give you the wisdom to make decisions. And another thing... Don't be overly worried or consumed by what isn't working.  6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 4:6-7 When you pray and give your worries and concerns to God, He will give you peace and help you to focus on His will for your life. So stand is in the middle of God's will. Trust the instincts that God has given you and trust in Him. Cling to the peace that God's presence offers, so you can rest knowing that you don't have to worry, because tomorrow will worry about itself. (Matthew 6:34)           PRAYER: May your heart delight in the plans God has for you. Stop struggling to make things perfect in an imperfect world. Trust that God has your best interest at His heart. He will direct your paths.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

(Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.)" When you learn how to navigate the challenges of life, you can always keep moving forward. Today, we honor the life and work of Dr. King, who was a Baptist minister and prominent leader in the American civil rights movement. People are encouraged to use the day to “reflect on the principles of racial equality and nonviolent social change espoused by Dr. King.” In 1964 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace for his efforts. He was assassinated in 1968. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Whether or not you know of Dr. King, you can still learn a lot from his life, what he stood for, and who he was as a man. He took the introspective part of his life very seriously. He didn't ask anyone to do anything he wouldn't do himself. So going back to "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. (Dr. King)" This quote reminds us that true character is tested in difficult times. When you are faced with challenges, it is easy to give up or take the easy way out. But true growth comes from pushing through adversity and standing up for what is right. "Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him." ~ James 1:12 The K.I.S.S. ~ Persevere under trial!             When you think about it, perseverance doesn't come easy, nor does it just happen. It takes work and diligent, consistent effort to stand in the game of life. One of the things that can keep moving you forward is having faith, not in what you can see, but in what you can't see. "Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. FAITH is an important aspect of personal development. It is easy to give up on our goals and dreams when we can't see the end result. Plus, when failure strikes, it's easier to quit. But Dr. King reminds us that true faith is about taking the first step, even when we don't know what the outcome will be. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." ~ Hebrews 11:1 When you take faith and then combine it with doing what is right, what are you doing in your life? You're navigating the challenges that are in your way. "The time is always right to do what is right." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. DOING WHAT IS RIGHT is not always easy, but it is always the right thing to do. Dr. King reminds us, there is never a bad time to do the right thing. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1 When you have faith, doing what is right, and putting your stamp of love on it, that's the triple whammy. "I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. LOVE is one of the most powerful forces in the world, and it is essential to personal development and mindset. You have to love the people where you're at. You have to love yourself. You have to love the journey you're on, even if it's in the presence of challenges.  "And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." ~ 1 Corinthians 13:13 We have got to choose to love and stop the hate; it's too great a burden to bear. And you can't move forward when you have thoughts of destruction to yourself, or someone or something else. Take a page out of the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His words are still powerful and inspiring. Use his guidance, wisdom, and encouragement to help you navigate through the challenges of life and become your best selfie.  Remember, when you're pushing through challenges and adversity, have faith, do what is right, and choose love. You can achieve anything you set your mind to, with hard work and perseverance. God's got you!           PRAYER: May God light the fire of endurance deep within your heart as your passion for life ignites you to live out your purpose, and continue to impact the world you touch.   "Be present.

To reap a bountiful harvest, cultivate the soil of your soul.   Just as a farmer must tend to the soil, so too must we tend to our souls in order to live a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" rel="noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   God wants what's best for you. I don't know where you are right now, or how you are feeling about life. But what I do know is life can be better than where you are, even if it's pretty good. But that comes from cultivating the soil of your soul. "Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." ~ Psalm 139:23-24 It's through self-reflection and honesty with yourself that you can uncover areas of your life that may hinder your growth and progress. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cultivate the soil of your soul!             Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. emphasized the importance of self-reflection and self-examination in his famous speech, "I Have a Dream". "But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred." ~ Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.           How can you tend to the soil of your soul? You've gotta remember that cultivating the soil of your soul is not a one-time task, but it's a lifelong process. "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice." ~ Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Just as a farmer must continually tend to the soil in order to reap a bountiful harvest, so too must we continually tend to our souls in order to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. When you take the time to reflect on where you are, whose you are,  and where God wants you to go, then you know how good life gets when a good seed finds good soil. That means when God's Word finds a faithful soul.                     PRAYER: May you be open to God tilling your soul with His goodness, mercy, and grace. May you capture God's Word in your heart. This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118:24).   "Be present. Be incredible.

I don't know where you are right now, or how you are feeling about life. But what I do know is life can be better than where you are, even if it's pretty good. But that comes from cultivating the soil of your soul. "Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.

Win your spouse's heart by being a caring, supportive, and respectful partner. I wish I could tell you that having a great marriage didn't require work of any kind. But that's not the way it works in real life.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   If you want to win your spouse's heart, you have to build a deep emotional connection and make them feel valued and loved. That's going to require much effort, patience, and understanding. As the Bible teaches, marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman, and it is important to treat your spouse with respect, love, and kindness. But unfortunately, our friends and strangers get the better end of the deal. We are kind to them and serve them well. Yet we yell at our spouse not because of what they did, but what the world did to us that day. Ring a bell?!? This is real life! That's why we need to be reminded to win our spouses' hearts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Win your spouse's heart!             Be selfless and put their needs before your own. Philippians 2:3 ~ "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves." This means that you should be willing to sacrifice your own desires and interests for the sake of your spouse. However, that doesn't mean that you don't consider yourself, too. There is a balance, and various seasons call for various measures. Be a good listener. James 1:19 ~ "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry." This means that you should be willing to hear your spouse out and understand their perspective, instead of always thinking that your own point of view is right. See your spouse as God sees them. Ephesians 5:25 ~ "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her." This means that we should love our spouse as Christ loves us, with a love that is selfless, sacrificial, and unconditional. Ephesians 5:22-33 It talks about "Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord." Keep it in context at the end where it says, "However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband." Keep in mind. You both are on the same team! Win your spouse's heart with selflessness, good communication, and seeing them through God's eyes; it's the heavenly perspective. And that means, forgiveness comes, too. By practicing these principles, you get to strengthen your marriage and build a deeper connection with your spouse. Ultimately, that's the goal; share life together! PRAYER: Lift up your spouse as God lifts you. Don't go for all the glory. Do life together. May your love for each other grow deeper and wider as you forge through life's mountains and valleys. Your soulmate sleeps next to you. Treat him/her with the unconditional love and grace shown to you by God.              "Be present. Be incredible.

It's never too early to start building a strong foundation in who they are as a person, a child of God, and one created on purpose for a purpose. In order to do this, that foundation must be built on trust and open communication. Why do you think presence is so vital in relationships, in life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Connect to the heart of your child!             This means that when you're present, actively listening, and watching and observing your child, you make time to talk and connect with them, creating a safe and loving environment where they feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings. Now that doesn't mean you give them permission to get whatever they want and walk all over you. You are still the parent. You must do what's right for your child and the season you're in as a family.  <br />- Heart-to-heart conversations with your child. This can be done through a regular family meeting or during a designated "heart talk" time each week. During these conversations, it is important to actively listen, to tune in to your child, and validate their feelings, even if you disagree with them. This helps your child feel heard and understood, which is crucial in building trust and connection. <br />- Teach them to understand and manage their emotions. This can be done by teaching them about different emotions and how to express them in healthy ways, as well as helping them to develop coping skills for when they are feeling overwhelmed. Remember, too, you've got to model healthy emotional expressions and behaviors. This means being aware of your own emotions and how you express them and being intentional about taking care of yourself emotionally. <br />- Develop a deeper understanding of their own worth and value. This comes from being a child of God. It's knowing the love and grace of God. Instill the belief in the love and grace of God. <br /> Connecting to the heart of your child is not going to be easy. Why? Because you have to think beyond your responsibilities. It's not just the dinner, dishes, and dogs. It's about your presence to see your child in the manner God sees you; reflection.            PRAYER: When your child pulls your strings, ask God to intervene. He knows the way to your heart and will show you the way to connect to the heart of your child. Start with the one thing you know.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Those are simply pits of deception. Choose today to chase your dreams with a passionate and purposeful heart. When fear, doubt, and uncertainty hold you back from pursuing your dreams, the only redemption comes from the fight; the one where the truth you believe is not what you see, but what God knows.   Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you're one who worries that you are not good enough, or that failure is your success. Because all you do is fail. That's some harsh reality. But these are the lies that we believe to be true. But the truth is, you are created in God's image, and He has given you these gifts, talents, and abilities to be used to achieve your heart's desires and to honor Him. Somehow, you find a way to talk yourself out of what you know to be true because the patterns of the world say so. In other words, you run from whose you are to who you wish you weren't still hoping for something different. The K.I.S.S. ~ Chase your dreams with a passionate and purposeful heart!   For the past couple of weeks, I've been specifically talking about preparation for life and how it all starts with the heart. "You can't do what is not within you." ~ Kristianne Wargo I get that everyone says you can be anything you want to be. But they forget to preface it with, "you'll only be able to do it if it's within you." It's the preparation for life that starts in the heart.  A passionate and purposeful heart is a heart that is fully engaged and invested in something or someone, with a deep sense of commitment and drive to achieve a specific goal or objective, a mission or vision. It is a heart that is motivated by a deep sense of meaning and fulfillment, rather than just surface-level desires or temporary pleasures.  That kind of heart doesn't align with the patterns of this world. Your heart was created in the image of God's love and passion for you to live out your heavenly purpose here on earth. And also, it's important to remember that God's timing is always perfect. And it might be that your dreams will be fulfilled in a different way than you imagined, but that doesn't mean that they are not worth pursuing. Have faith, trust in God, and take the first step toward your dream, no matter how small that step may be. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Dream BIG!! PRAYER:"Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." ~ Proverbs 16:3   "Be present. Be incredible.

When fear, doubt, and uncertainty hold you back from pursuing your dreams, the only redemption comes from the fight; the one where the truth you believe is not what you see, but what God knows.   Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Maybe you're one who worries that you are not good enough, or that failure is your success. Because all you do is fail. That's some harsh reality. But these are the lies that we believe to be true. But the truth is, you are created in God's image, and He has given you these gifts, talents, and abilities to be used to achieve your heart's desires and to honor Him. Somehow, you find a way to talk yourself out of what you know to be true because the patterns of the world say so. In other words, you run from whose you are to who you wish you weren't still hoping for something different. The K.I.S.S. ~ Chase your dreams with a passionate and purposeful heart!   For the past couple of weeks, I've been specifically talking about preparation for life and how it all starts with the heart. "You can't do what is not within you." ~ Kristianne Wargo I get that everyone says you can be anything you want to be. But they forget to preface it with, "you'll only be able to do it if it's within you." It's the preparation for life that starts in the heart.  A passionate and purposeful heart is a heart that is fully engaged and invested in something or someone, with a deep sense of commitment and drive to achieve a specific goal or objective, a mission or vision. It is a heart that is motivated by a deep sense of meaning and fulfillment, rather than just surface-level desires or temporary pleasures.  That kind of heart doesn't align with the patterns of this world. Your heart was created in the image of God's love and passion for you to live out your heavenly purpose here on earth. And also, it's important to remember that God's timing is always perfect. And it might be that your dreams will be fulfilled in a different way than you imagined, but that doesn't mean that they are not worth pursuing. Have faith, trust in God, and take the first step toward your dream, no matter how small that step may be. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Dream BIG!! PRAYER:"Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." ~ Proverbs 16:3   "Be present. Be incredible.

You do what others do successfully. Success leaves clues.  Some things are just obvious in life.  Proverbs 13:20 says, "He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="https://createyournow.mn.co" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://createyournow.mn.co</a>   Success leaves clues. It's the new year! And that's the beginning of new year's resolutions. We set what we hope to accomplish at the beginning hoping to strive and push through to the end. But pushing doesn't always have to be the answer. If you want to live healthy lives, it's important to follow the examples of those who have done it before. You can study their habits, their routines, and the things that they do on a daily basis. Follow the leader! The K.I.S.S. ~ Follow the leader!   One key habit is regular exercise. The benefits of exercise are well-documented and include a lower risk of chronic diseases, improved mood, and a stronger immune system. But it's not just about the physical benefits – regular exercise can also help us to honor God with our bodies by keeping them in the best possible condition. So when you think you're having a cheat meal, think again. The second key habit is nutrition. We are called to nourish our bodies with healthy, nutritious foods (Proverbs 31:17) and avoid overindulging in things that are harmful to us (1 Corinthians 6:12). A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins is essential for maintaining good health and preventing chronic diseases. Thirdly, you have got to get enough rest and manage stress. God has commanded us to rest, both physically and spiritually (Exodus 20:8-11, Matthew 11:28-30), and it's important to make sure that we are getting enough sleep each night and taking steps to manage stress in our lives. Ultimately, living a healthy life is not just about our physical well-being – It's about knowing whose we are, and glorifying God with our bodies by being good stewards of the gifts He has given us. You get to choose how you treat your body. You can follow the ways of the world and eat crap food and indulge in sugar beyond the capacity of your body to detox it. However, if you choose to follow the leader, you'll find that success leaves clues. And that's when you can learn new habits and routines or retrain your mind to do what's best for your life.  The Bible is full of wisdom and guidance on how to live a healthy life. You are called to honor God with your body by taking care of yourself. Loving yourself, because God loved you first. So when it comes to healthy living, we should remember the wise words of Proverbs 13:20 – "Walk with the wise and become wise." Remember, success leaves clues.  PRAYER: May your nutrition and intentional movement honor who God created you to become. Let rest prepare you for the long days and short nights. Take care of yourself so you can love others deeper, just as God loves you.    "Train for life.

Be cautious not to equate your value to your achievements. Your worth is not in your success. Did you have a minute to watch the College Football Championship game between Georgia and TCU? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   If you watched any part of it, you probably wonder why TCU was even in the championship game. However, if you watched them over their entire season, you would understand the why behind the failure last evening. Too much emphasis is put on our successes, those achievements and accomplishments, and NOT who we are. We equate everything to the wins and leave the failures to define us more specifically. Think about when you were in high school. Maybe you weren't so strong in science on the test, but could rock any lab and understand it fully.  Does that make you less worthy or unsuccessful? Maybe, if it affects your college admissions. But the statement still remains. The K.I.S.S. ~ Your worth is not in your success!   When we look at worth from a heavenly perspective, worth becomes a totally different definition. One of the most powerful passages on this topic is Philippians 4:13. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." ~ Philippians 4:13 This reminds us that no matter the challenges we face, or how much success or failure we encounter, we can find strength and confidence not in ourselves, but in Jesus. It's of God's doing, not of our own. But it's important to understand that our worth is not tied to our success or failure. You and I are created in the image of God.  "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." ~ Psalm 139:13-14 You are uniquely and beautifully made by God. Your worth is not dependent on your achievements or circumstances.  TCU is not less than of a team or as individuals because they lost the championship game. And Georgia is not better because they won.  Now, if we were to look solely at the execution of football skills, then Georgia was better last night. But at the end of the game, Duggan and Bennett are still incredible individuals with talents beyond what we saw on the field. And that goes for all the players and staff last evening. Don't confuse what the world sees in you with who God has created you to be. Your worth is not in your success. PRAYER: May your eyes be opened to the gifts and talents given to you by God. As you focus on your daily activities, don't forget whose you are. Stay close to the truth God holds for you.    "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Be cautious not to equate your value to your achievements. Your worth is not in your success. Did you have a minute to watch the College Football Championship game between Georgia and TCU? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   If you watched any part of it, you probably wonder why TCU was even in the championship game. However, if you watched them over their entire season, you would understand the why behind the failure last evening. Too much emphasis is put on our successes, those achievements and accomplishments, and NOT who we are. We equate everything to the wins and leave the failures to define us more specifically. Think about when you were in high school. Maybe you weren't so strong in science on the test, but could rock any lab and understand it fully.  Does that make you less worthy or unsuccessful? Maybe, if it affects your college admissions. But the statement still remains. The K.I.S.S. ~ Your worth is not in your success!   When we look at worth from a heavenly perspective, worth becomes a totally different definition. One of the most powerful passages on this topic is Philippians 4:13. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." ~ Philippians 4:13 This reminds us that no matter the challenges we face, or how much success or failure we encounter, we can find strength and confidence not in ourselves, but in Jesus. It's of God's doing, not of our own. But it's important to understand that our worth is not tied to our success or failure. You and I are created in the image of God.  "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." ~ Psalm 139:13-14 You are uniquely and beautifully made by God. Your worth is not dependent on your achievements or circumstances.  TCU is not less than of a team or as individuals because they lost the championship game. And Georgia is not better because they won.  Now, if we were to look solely at the execution of football skills, then Georgia was better last night. But at the end of the game, Duggan and Bennett are still incredible individuals with talents beyond what we saw on the field. And that goes for all the players and staff last evening. Don't confuse what the world sees in you with who God has created you to be. Your worth is not in your success. PRAYER: May your eyes be opened to the gifts and talents given to you by God. As you focus on your daily activities, don't forget whose you are. Stay close to the truth God holds for you.    "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Don't let these thieves steal what is yours to have. Determine what is robbing your heart of happiness and live in the present. You know I'm a true believer in being in the moment; to be present. And I believe this is modeled to us by God. He wants you to BE.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

He was a part of the people He saw. He didn't ignore them, but embraced them. One fallacy of our humanness is control. We want what we want when we want it. That's the microwave world, the drone world. Deliver to me now so I can have and be what I want. Unfortunately, this is not how our heart works. And this does not get us ahead in life. In fact, it can actually slow us down.  I asked the question, "What is robbing your heart of happiness?"  There are many things that distract us in our every day. But there are two specific areas that can drown out what you are searching for; control of the past and the future. You trying to hold your fist tight enough or worrying yourself out of a situation or circumstance will not help you find happiness. There will be no peace. There's no reason for you to become frustrated, empty, and discontent.  Cultivate a life of hope. The K.I.S.S. ~ Cultivate a life of hope!   And this doesn't come from your own doings.  One thing that can rob you of your happiness is the past. The past can weigh you down with regrets, sorrow, and bitterness. It can make you feel like you're stuck in a rut and unable to move forward. But we're told to let go of the past and move on. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 3:13-14 This doesn't mean you should forget the lessons you have learned or the people who have shaped your life. It means you should let go of the pain and hurt of the past and focus on the present, as it will become your future. "Worry does not save tomorrow from sorrow but robs today of joy." ~ Dr. John Izzo Another thing that can rob you of your happiness is the future. You can get so caught up in worrying about what might happen that you forget to enjoy the present. But you are not to worry about the future.  "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." ~ Matthew 6:34 God's got you! Trusting in God's plan for your life and living each day to the fullest can bring true happiness here on earth. As you cultivate a life of hope, make way for gratitude so you can be present honestly and authentically.  You get to decide how you want your heart to show up. The fight is between your head and heart. So find the peace not in this world, but in whom God is for you. PRAYER: May your happiness not be linked to the past and future, but be grounded in the presence of God. Let go of the past, trust in God's plan for the future, and take time to enjoy the present. May this be your journey to experiencing the fullness of joy and happiness that God has for you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Seek guidance from God and follow His plans, for He is the heart of change. How was the first week of your new year? Did it all go as planned? Did you have a few mishaps? Or maybe you just blew everything out of the water. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Well, one thing you can count on every day, every month, of every year is change. Change is a constant.  And it's not one most of us like to deal with. Habits are much easier and take less energy. Why do you think eating the stuff you aren't supposed to have comes easy? But in all seriousness. We can make positive changes regardless of what's happening around us. It won't come easy, but it will come.  As believers, we know God is the source of all love, wisdom, and goodness. He created you on purpose for a greater purpose. He desires you to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. But unfortunately, our own desires and choices can lead us astray from God's plans. You may get stuck in negative patterns of behavior, thinking, or relationships that hold you back and keeps you from becoming your best selfie. In preparation for the new year and this new season, we must accept and adopt the heart of change. The K.I.S.S. ~ The heart of change!   To experience true and lasting change, you have to go to the heart of the matter; and that's the connection with God. "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me" (Psalm 51:10).  <br />-  Invite God into your every day and connect with Him. You can do this by praying and reading the Bible.  Listen to His voice. Discern His next steps for you, and be encouraged through His guidance. Meditate on His Word, so He can teach you, convict you, and give you the courage and strength to change.  <br />-  Ask for forgiveness. The Bible says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). When you acknowledge your mistakes and ask for God's forgiveness, you open yourself up to His mercy and grace. This gives you the freedom to let go of the guilt, shame, and regrets that weigh you down and hinder your growth.  <br />-  Surround yourself with a community of believers. Who you hang out with has an influence over you. Seek out friends, mentors, and church members who walk with God, so you can receive encouragement, accountability, and gain wisdom as you navigate the changes you want to make. We're better together.  <br />-  Take A.I.M.! Change often requires you to take the next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo God doesn't take these steps; you have to. Dream your dreams, set goals, and make preparation to plan for what's to come.  Trust that God will give you the wisdom and resources you need to take the next step.   <br /> Change begins in the heart – So you need to be willing to seek God's will and His desire for you. When you allow God to work in you and through you, you can experience the transformation that only God can bring. So be courageous and trust in Him, knowing that He is the heart of change.

Seek guidance from God and follow His plans, for He is the heart of change. How was the first week of your new year? Did it all go as planned? Did you have a few mishaps? Or maybe you just blew everything out of the water. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Well, one thing you can count on every day, every month, of every year is change. Change is a constant.  And it's not one most of us like to deal with. Habits are much easier and take less energy. Why do you think eating the stuff you aren't supposed to have comes easy? But in all seriousness. We can make positive changes regardless of what's happening around us. It won't come easy, but it will come.  As believers, we know God is the source of all love, wisdom, and goodness. He created you on purpose for a greater purpose. He desires you to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. But unfortunately, our own desires and choices can lead us astray from God's plans. You may get stuck in negative patterns of behavior, thinking, or relationships that hold you back and keeps you from becoming your best selfie. In preparation for the new year and this new season, we must accept and adopt the heart of change. The K.I.S.S. ~ The heart of change!   To experience true and lasting change, you have to go to the heart of the matter; and that's the connection with God. "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me" (Psalm 51:10).  <br />-  Invite God into your every day and connect with Him. You can do this by praying and reading the Bible.  Listen to His voice. Discern His next steps for you, and be encouraged through His guidance. Meditate on His Word, so He can teach you, convict you, and give you the courage and strength to change.  <br />-  Ask for forgiveness. The Bible says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). When you acknowledge your mistakes and ask for God's forgiveness, you open yourself up to His mercy and grace. This gives you the freedom to let go of the guilt, shame, and regrets that weigh you down and hinder your growth.  <br />-  Surround yourself with a community of believers. Who you hang out with has an influence over you. Seek out friends, mentors, and church members who walk with God, so you can receive encouragement, accountability, and gain wisdom as you navigate the changes you want to make. We're better together.  <br />-  Take A.I.M.! Change often requires you to take the next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo God doesn't take these steps; you have to. Dream your dreams, set goals, and make preparation to plan for what's to come.  Trust that God will give you the wisdom and resources you need to take the next step.   <br /> Change begins in the heart – So you need to be willing to seek God's will and His desire for you. When you allow God to work in you and through you, you can experience the transformation that only God can bring. So be courageous and trust in Him, knowing that He is the heart of change. PRAYER: May your heart accept the challenge of feeling different. There is peace and power in the presence of God. So stand tall because God knows all. Take the stones that people throw at you every day, and create something beautiful in God's way.   "Be present. Be incredible.

When nurtured and cultivated, it brings joy and fulfillment. Create the rhythm in your marriage with the heart's beat and the love it holds. How is your heart beating toward your spouse? Have you had thoughts of wishing life was different? And in what way? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   These thoughts can be good or bad. They might be the ones that lead you astray, away from your spouse. Or they might be the ones that create a desire in you to draw you closer. Today, I want to focus on how your heart's beat is leading your thoughts and actions toward your spouse and marriage. Whether we want to admit it or not, we are called to renew our minds. Temptation and unrealistic expectations are always in front of you. Just look at your social media, whatever you peruse on a daily basis. The Bible tells us to "guard our hearts with all diligence" (Proverbs 4:23). This is especially important in marriage, as our hearts are closely connected to the heart of our spouse. Our hearts are like gardens, and the things we allow to grow there will ultimately bear fruit in our lives. When we allow negative thoughts and emotions to fill our hearts, it can affect the health of our marriage. But when we fill our hearts with love, patience, and understanding, it can strengthen the bond between us. You don't want the weeds of this world to overtake what God has united together. So you've got to till the soil. The K.I.S.S. ~ Till the S.O.I.L.!   Tilling the soil involves turning over about the first 6–10 inches of soil before planting new seeds. Your marriage needs tilling often. And if you let what falls on top continue to stay there, it will suffocate your relationship. <ol> <li>STRENGTHEN your purpose in your marriage. What is it? What do you want your marriage to stand for?</li> <li>OBSERVE your thoughts and actions. What are you thinking now about your marriage and your spouse? Be honest. Be real. Get to the heart of what matters, good or bad.</li> <li>INTERNALIZE your preparation. You have got to take heart to what matters. Let go of the stuff that doesn't matter. Stop keeping score. Let bygones be bygones. Invest in what God makes possible. </li> <li>LOVE with God's heart. Your rhythm has got to be connected to God. 1 Corinthians 13:13 reminds us that "faith, hope, and love remain" and that "the greatest of these is love." Love is the foundation of a healthy marriage and is essential for a fulfilling life together. And that love comes from God. "God is love" (1 John 4:8). When we turn to Him and allow His love to flow into our hearts, it will overflow into our marriage and into the lives of those around us.</li> </ol> The heart's beat and the love it holds comes from our Creator. You can't extend the love your spouse deserves without allowing God to love you first and then extending that love shown to you by God to your spouse. It's the extension of God's heart, His love for you, your spouse, and your family. PRAYER: May your thoughts and actions be a mirror of God's love. As your heart's beat is strengthened by God's grace, be quick to listen and slow to speak. And with every waking morning, may you choose to till the soil instilling a foundation of faith, hope, and love.    "Be present. Be incredible.

It's a place where we create memories, build traditions, and raise our children. So recharge and strengthen your family from the heart to home. How well did you treat your family last year? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   As you know, today is confession day. And whether we want to or not, it's time to be honest with how we feel about our family.  It's not about how much you love them, but, more importantly, how your heart is connected to them. Life gets a little wild sometimes. And it doesn't help when busyness is the continued honor by friends and family (your equals).  We, as parents, often put our hearts and soul into creating a warm and loving home for our family. It's a big job, but it's one that we attempt to do with love and joy in our hearts. However, that's not always our reality. When life happens, so do our tempers. We try to be considerate, yet selfishness does appear more often than not. Right?!? Listening to that radio station, WIIFM. But in reality, you really want what's in your heart to be connected to your home. Why can't your four walls exhibit who you are as an individual and as a parent? Why can't the reflection be what you value as a family? Colossians 3:17 says, "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." So if you want those four walls to reflect your heart, lean in more than you stray away.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Lean in more than you stray away!   There is nothing more important on this earth than the gift of your family. And that means you have to work at it to enjoy it.  <br />- Create a physical space that reflects your heart. This is your escape from reality. It's also a safe place to be you 100% of the time, and opening the door for your kiddos to do the same. Joanne Miller wrote a book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Creating-Haven-Peace-Feeling-Finances/dp/1630477710/ref" rel="noopener">https://www.amazon.com/Creating-Haven-Peace-Feeling-Finances/dp/1630477710/ref</a>=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1672977621&amp;sr=8-13. Your home is a refuge.  <br />- Magnify your time as a family. You must make time for your family. You cannot build relationships when you're absent. "Presence is required within your four walls." <br />- Grow in gratitude. This could be through small gestures like leaving little notes of encouragement or bringing home a favorite treat. It could also be through acts of service, like cooking a special meal or running errands for a loved one. 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 says, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs." <br /> When your heart is connected to your home, there is patience, understanding, and forgiveness. But as you know, no family is perfect. There will be conflicts and challenges. Colossians 3:13 says, "Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." It's important to remember that everyone makes mistakes. So approach problems with a heart of love and compassion. Ephesians 4:2 says, "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." In the end, a heart-filled home is not about perfection, it's about creating a place where everyone feels loved, supported, valued, seen, and heard. It's a place where you can grow and thrive as a family. As parents, it's our greatest joy to give from our heart for the home creating a space filled with love, warmth, and happiness. PRAYER: May your heart be reflected in your home daily. Be intentional in making time to see and listen to your children. Don't forget the blessings amongst the messes. What your heart searches for, your actions recreate. From the heart to home, live, love and impact!   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's a place where we create memories, build traditions, and raise our children. So recharge and strengthen your family from the heart to home. How well did you treat your family last year? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   As you know, today is confession day. And whether we want to or not, it's time to be honest with how we feel about our family.  It's not about how much you love them, but, more importantly, how your heart is connected to them. Life gets a little wild sometimes. And it doesn't help when busyness is the continued honor by friends and family (your equals).  We, as parents, often put our hearts and soul into creating a warm and loving home for our family. It's a big job, but it's one that we attempt to do with love and joy in our hearts. However, that's not always our reality. When life happens, so do our tempers. We try to be considerate, yet selfishness does appear more often than not. Right?!? Listening to that radio station, WIIFM. But in reality, you really want what's in your heart to be connected to your home. Why can't your four walls exhibit who you are as an individual and as a parent? Why can't the reflection be what you value as a family?

And the way God sees things, nothing is impossible. All the more reason why you need to anticipate the unexpected. The K.I.S.S. ~ Anticipate the unexpected!   When you think about it, you setting expectations for yourself only puts you in a box. It sets you up for more failure than success.  What happens when you don't achieve what you desire? Do you treat it as a lesson learned or a failure? For me, even though I do my best not to, I feel like it's a failure. I turn against my own goals and wonder why I didn't do better. Expectations slow down your progress.  You must remain present and focus on what matters. "Juggling everything means you're juggling nothing. Things will fall, and others will be missed. Hold tight to what matters. Anticipate the unexpected." ~ Kristianne Wargo Jeremiah 29:11 "I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future." Things might mess up because it's not meant to be. And pushing harder to make it possible isn't always the right action.  Instead of calculating and assuming what's to come, know that God has gone before you. Hang tight to your faith. God's got you! And if you are in the middle of a mess, remember to look for the blessings. They might be disguised.  "You find what you search for." ~ Kristianne Wargo So stop limiting yourself. This is the start of a brand new year. Make a choice to accept the change to connect to what matters as you anticipate the unexcepted. PRAYER: May your nights be restful so your days can be fruitful. No challenges that happen go unnoticed. Rely not on your own strength, but be consumed by God's strength. In preparation for this new year, don't forget what matters to your heart.

Your body deserves the best.  This is your year! Start doing what helps to stop doing what hurts. Are you one who looks in the mirror and wishes you saw someone different than who you see? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   If we're all honest, body image is troubling. It's a struggle for so many, and rightfully so.  We get attached to what's easy in the busy, and leave out what is best for the body. Healthy living takes intentional preparation. You can't just wake up and will off the weight, or add muscle to your form. It's not that easy. But the reverse tells a different story. Beating up our bodies is a simple convenience in the busyness of life. Why think about what your body needs to perform at its optimal level when you can have convenience? So instead of complicating the preparation, start doing what helps in order to stop doing what hurts. Lead with ease! The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead with E.A.S.E.!

Lock into where you want to be a living legacy. A new season brings about a new reason; get to the heart of what matters. "I am the vine, you are the branches." (John 15:5) What you remove must be refined. With every cut creates opportunity. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It comes from discerning what God desires for you. Your dreams matter; however, it's aligning them with His steps, not yours. You can't race on the track if your engine is not running. Yet, that's how most of us are living our lives. We sit back, putting out the fires, trying to minimize the damage of the day, all the while accepting the status quo. You need to find what makes you tick, what sets your passion for your purpose in overdrive.  Get to the heart of what matters. Stop being distracted and keep your actions real, always in motion. If you want to master today to impact tomorrow, you've got to get to the heart of what matters. "Don't let what you can't see dilute what you are feeling, or who you can be." ~ Kristianne Wargo Every day, you have a choice to live out what you want to leave behind. That's how you are a living legacy. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get to the heart of what matters!   "The most difficult thing is the decision to act. The rest is merely tenacity." ~ Amelia Earhart If the most challenging thing is making that decision to act, then keep the momentum going by intentionally moving forward. Take A.I.M.! Even though you may experience insurmountable odds, that doesn't mean you give up and quit.  You're a superhero, a living legacy. Make a pivot. Shift the direction you are headed. Don't be swallowed by failures, but ride the waves of lessons learned to gain momentum. Let's go back to your life verse. What did you write? And if you didn't, go listen to <a href="https://createyournow.com/podcast/create-your-now-your-best-selfie-podcast/2908-the-power-of-change-and-renewal/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Episode 2907</a>. Once you have your life verse, extract the actions within the verse. And if, for some reason, you have a verse with no action, then rewrite or add it to a specific action or goal you are going after. Struggles are real. Life is real. But as long as you have breath, you get to live, love, and impact.  Get to the heart of what matters. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: As your new year begins with some uncomfortable pruning, continue to focus on God's divine plan for you.  Change is a constant, but you are a living legacy. Change does not define you. It simply refines you, rebuilds you, and renews you. Restoration starts in the heart. May you connect your heart with God's and get to the heart of what matters.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

A new season brings about a new reason; get to the heart of what matters. "I am the vine, you are the branches." (John 15:5) What you remove must be refined. With every cut creates opportunity. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It comes from discerning what God desires for you. Your dreams matter; however, it's aligning them with His steps, not yours. You can't race on the track if your engine is not running. Yet, that's how most of us are living our lives. We sit back, putting out the fires, trying to minimize the damage of the day, all the while accepting the status quo. You need to find what makes you tick, what sets your passion for your purpose in overdrive.  Get to the heart of what matters. Stop being distracted and keep your actions real, always in motion. If you want to master today to impact tomorrow, you've got to get to the heart of what matters. "Don't let what you can't see dilute what you are feeling, or who you can be." ~ Kristianne Wargo Every day, you have a choice to live out what you want to leave behind. That's how you are a living legacy. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get to the heart of what matters!   "The most difficult thing is the decision to act. The rest is merely tenacity." ~ Amelia Earhart If the most challenging thing is making that decision to act, then keep the momentum going by intentionally moving forward. Take A.I.M.! Even though you may experience insurmountable odds, that doesn't mean you give up and quit.  You're a superhero, a living legacy. Make a pivot. Shift the direction you are headed. Don't be swallowed by failures, but ride the waves of lessons learned to gain momentum. Let's go back to your life verse. What did you write? And if you didn't, go listen to <a href="https://createyournow.com/podcast/create-your-now-your-best-selfie-podcast/2908-the-power-of-change-and-renewal/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Episode 2907</a>. Once you have your life verse, extract the actions within the verse. And if, for some reason, you have a verse with no action, then rewrite or add it to a specific action or goal you are going after. Struggles are real. Life is real. But as long as you have breath, you get to live, love, and impact.  Get to the heart of what matters. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: As your new year begins with some uncomfortable pruning, continue to focus on God's divine plan for you.  Change is a constant, but you are a living legacy. Change does not define you. It simply refines you, rebuilds you, and renews you. Restoration starts in the heart. May you connect your heart with God's and get to the heart of what matters.

But with any new season, you can choose to execute intentional plans to create your now. It all comes from the power of change and renewal. At some point, you must slow down to speed up. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But if your holidays have gone anything like mine, slowing down is the last thing that happened.  In fact, I think time is moving faster. Which, of course, we know not to be true. Yet, that feeling is real. Even though it's supposed to be a slower day, resetting yourself for a new year is challenging. You are faced with old roots. But what you may have forgotten, those old roots can bear new fruits. We had some extreme frigid weather down here in the south. Upon returning home, I noticed we had a dozen or so bronzed shrubs. The small evergreens are no longer green. However, with great care, and a systematic approach to fertilizing and pruning, they will come back stronger.  I know this because it happened a few years back. Why do you think God created plants to be pruned? (John 15:1-17) Just as plants are pruned, we, too, need to be pruned. "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." ~ John 15:5 So don't be rushed to chop this and cut that. Be intentional by rebuilding your foundation. The K.I.S.S. ~ REbuild your foundation!   And keep in mind, that rebuild may mean you are starting from scratch in some corners of your life. Yet in other corners, you might be cleaning up a little. Remember the question: Why do you think God created plants to be pruned? "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me." ~ John 15:1-4 We try to do a lot of things on our own. But today is a new day, a new season, with a new reason: new fruit from old roots. <ol> <li>REMOVE what is dead or dying. This is where you let go of what is no longer serving you. God desires something specific for your life, your purpose. As you draw closer to Him, you will not need some of the things that held you back from your heavenly purpose here on earth.</li> <li>DISCARD the disease or distractions. When you are committed to God's plans for you, then the old must go. You set your mind not to the patterns of this world, but on the purpose of renewing your mind God's way. This is when the cutting or the pruning makes room for the new, and this may require you to REdo. Just do it God's way.</li> <li>FOCUS on the right next step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! (Kristianne Wargo)" But you can also get ahead of God. Live life in step with God; His pace, His way. Take away what doesn't for a season, and trust in God's reason. This is your day, His way!</li> </ol> You don't want to look like a snarly tree with branches going all over the place. Pruning helps to keep your focus. It will also keep what's vital and will strengthen your foundation as you create your now. God has extraordinary plans for you. But you have to get out of your own way and let God lead. Be in step with God.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your new year be filled with a time of pruning and rebuilding. Allow your focus to be in step with God's divine plan for you.  Change will not crush you. Change will simply refine you, rebuild you, and renew you. Restoration starts in the heart.    "Be present.

Don't let life pass you by. Tune into God's heavenly radio station and listen to what He desires for you; your life verse. How busy were you last year? Did the time fly by like it is already?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   God has plans for you. But the key is discerning what He wants for you and allowing Him to direct your paths.  You don't need all the answers. Walk by faith. Yet, that will require a bit of communication with God.  <br />- Read the Bible, so you know more about who He is. <br />- Pray without ceasing.  <br />- Establish a 911 connection to Him. <br /> The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish your life verse!   Most people are planning what they want to accomplish in the new year. But what if you could take what you know in your heart to be what God desires for you, and turn it into a heavenly motivation? Talk about some inspiration; that's hard to beat.  You might be one who knows exactly what verse you want to claim is for you.  However, I want to encourage you to write your own life verse with more than one from the Bible. This way, it's specific and unique to you, just as unique as you are. Plus, you're more likely to remember it, be challenged by it, and be inspired to keep going when times get tough. Breakthrough starts in the heart. Connect to what God wants for you. Jeremiah 29:11 "I know the plan I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans for hope and a future." Isaiah 40:31 "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint." Psalm 118:24 "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Take these verses and write your life verse. This becomes so unique to you.  Keep this in mind. Be short and sweet. Remember, this is the 911 you need to get your through whatever season you are in. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May God delight in your presence as you declare His plans for you. Every morning, there are new mercies to claim as your own. Do so with courage and respect for what was, what is,  and what's to come. As struggles and troubles attempt to distract and discourage your dreams, hold fast to God's faithfulness. Life is a gift. Unwrap it every day. This is the day God has designed for you. Celebrate the richness and mercy of His love. Nothing is impossible! From my family to yours, have a Blessed New Year!!!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Tune into God's heavenly radio station and listen to what He desires for you; your life verse. How busy were you last year? Did the time fly by like it is already?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   God has plans for you. But the key is discerning what He wants for you and allowing Him to direct your paths.  You don't need all the answers. Walk by faith. Yet, that will require a bit of communication with God.  <br />- Read the Bible, so you know more about who He is. <br />- Pray without ceasing.  <br />- Establish a 911 connection to Him. <br /> The K.I.S.S. ~ Establish your life verse!   Most people are planning what they want to accomplish in the new year. But what if you could take what you know in your heart to be what God desires for you, and turn it into a heavenly motivation? Talk about some inspiration; that's hard to beat.  You might be one who knows exactly what verse you want to claim is for you.  However, I want to encourage you to write your own life verse with more than one from the Bible. This way, it's specific and unique to you, just as unique as you are. Plus, you're more likely to remember it, be challenged by it, and be inspired to keep going when times get tough. Breakthrough starts in the heart. Connect to what God wants for you. Jeremiah 29:11 "I know the plan I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans for hope and a future." Isaiah 40:31 "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint." Psalm 118:24 "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Take these verses and write your life verse. This becomes so unique to you.  Keep this in mind. Be short and sweet. Remember, this is the 911 you need to get your through whatever season you are in. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May God delight in your presence as you declare His plans for you. Every morning, there are new mercies to claim as your own. Do so with courage and respect for what was, what is,  and what's to come. As struggles and troubles attempt to distract and discourage your dreams, hold fast to God's faithfulness. Life is a gift. Unwrap it every day. This is the day God has designed for you. Celebrate the richness and mercy of His love. Nothing is impossible! From my family to yours, have a Blessed New Year!!!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Who you hang out with, who you love, and who loves you. Beautify the heart and move from conflict to compromise. Have you looked at your calendar? Today marks the end of the year and the pre-celebration of what's to come.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Well, before you block out all the bad or good stuff. I want your focus to rest in your relationships.  Relationships are vital to creating the life you desire.  Who you hang out with matters. So instead of fighting and complaining, move from conflict to compromise. The K.I.S.S. ~ From conflict to compromise!   When you look at your marriage, what do you see? Be honest with yourself and leave no stones unturned.  Because, unfortunately, people get stuck based on relationships.  Look at your marriage. If you are in a good season, recall a bad season. You most certainly can understand how conflict gets you nowhere fast. It takes kindness and genuine concern, which equates to compromise.  Life isn't all about you. So be extra cautious about this trap. PRAYER: May your heart connect to the ones you love. Be open to who God has in store for you to meet. Know that your thoughts are already heard, so keep them on task leading with love and kindness. Compromise is a path to finding what you desire without having to beat down what doesn't seem to be working in your mind. Live, love, and impact.

You know all the sayings about savoring the moment, enjoying this stage, or time flies when you're having fun. But that doesn't bring comfort to your every day. Because every day feels like an eternity. Those moments and stages seem to last for weeks and months. It blows my mind the extreme of our feelings as a parent.  This, my friend, then becomes complicated with the busyness. We've got to do everything now!!  And that's where you land every day. Living life in a fast-paced world.  Yet, what if you could slow down and smell the roses? What if you could plan ahead in order not to miss what's ahead? It's the 360° view that needs your focus. The K.I.S.S. ~ Plan from 360° view!   This is a great time to think about how you think about things in your life, the way you see your family, and how you want to be when they are grown. <ol> <li>Benefits before profits. Don't make decisions based on future profits. There is no money guarantee on anything, even the Powerball. So be more proactive in their interests, not their potential earnings.</li> <li>Love before division. What you think is best for your child is not always the case. But please understand, there are exceptions to every rule. However, what I mean to love before division puts your heart with your family's heart. When you see them, there is no division.</li> <li>Dreams before ultimatums. You want what's best for your children. Who doesn't? So be cautious not to let what you didn't get to do growing up be impressed upon them. Let them reach for their dreams, and then encourage them to reach for the stars.  </li> </ol> You have plans for your children, but so does God.  "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 PRAYER: May your mind and heart commit to what God has planned for your children. Stand by them in love and hope. And may your faith be strengthened by what you cannot see, but in whose you are.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But, too often, the lines drawn in the sand become hurdles and not benefits. In order to keep living a fruitful life, exercise your boundaries. When we were a child, our parents and caregivers set boundaries. Those boundaries were in place to keep us safe, to give us parameters where we could excel and not be hurt. But as a kid, all you wanted was your way.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Unfortunately, not much changes when you become an adult. I'm sure you can think of one person who goes against everything just because with no reason needed. Some of the crazy things that matter to us as kids: Playing with our friends, staying up late, talking on the phone forever, and going to the movies. Jump to the teen years into college years, and boundaries are the last thing we are considering. You want it; you go and do it. And in my opinion, it's only gotten worse. The "immediate" syndrome sends boundaries flying. That line in the sand is not washed out to sea.  Who needs to save money? Who needs to watch what we eat? Who needs to exercise more? Who needs to go to be earlier? Who needs to eat more vegetables? Who needs to sing more rather than yell? Who needs to drink more water? The list goes on and on. But overall, if you're honest with yourself, boundaries are a blessing, especially if you exercise them. What can boundaries do for you?  <br />- In the past, boundaries might have kept you from mixing with the wrong crowd at the wrong time. <br />- Boundaries may have held you back from doing drugs. <br />- Boundaries may have increased your intentions when it comes to who you date, and how you parent. <br />- Boundaries may have defined what you need in a troubled or even a focused season. <br /> Boundaries are a safety net. Yet every safety net has consequences, good or bad. Think back to the big trampolines. You can jump all you want in the center. But if you get too close to the edges, a lot can go wrong. Life isn't about pushing too hard, too fast. It's all about exercising your boundaries. The K.I.S.S. ~ Exercise your boundaries!   And making sure they work for you.  <br />- KNOW your boundaries. What boundaries have you set for yourself? Most of us don't know what boundaries we do have. We just live a reactionary life. And that becomes dangerous when you're talking about health and wellness. <br />- ADJUST your boundaries. This is where you redefine your boundaries or change them completely. <br />- PLAY FULL-OUT with your boundaries. If the boundaries are working for you, why would you go against them? So get yourself in gear and play full-out. <br /> For me, it's most challenging to keep something going when the temptation appears to have a greater reward. Now intuitively, you and I know that keeping to what benefits us is best. But you know how temptation works, especially when stress or life happens. So don't let the end of this year be the calamity at the beginning of your new year. Exercise your boundaries to work toward your healthy living goals.

Don't fight what you can handle. Be methodical in the madness.  Now that the Christmas holidays are 2 days behind you, there's no better time than the present to get specific about what you want. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   You can stop chasing what you say you're going to do, and actually do it!! Because if you're honest with yourself, chaos and calm goes hand in hand. It really is all dependent on how you handle your every day. With only 6 days until the new year, at some point, you have to get real about what you are doing. Now being real doesn't mean you are cursing at yourself because of short-term failures. No more exclamation points to signify your shortcomings.  Get in the groove. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be methodical in the madness!   If you don't plan, all you have is chaos. However, chaos can turn to calm when you are methodical in the madness. We are celebrating the holidays at a popular destination, Disney. Whether or not you like Disney, I want you to get to the real picture. Take the first malfunction; a lost shoe on the ride with no spares in the area for a 2-year-old. How can you have magic if you don't have shoes. You want to walk everywhere!! And mind you, this was the first ride. We were told if they found the shoe (which we knew was there because we could see it from the ride), we could come back and check at 11pm when the park closes and pick it up.  So what did we do? We headed over to the ride, speaking to a total of 7 cast members, all of whom confirmed what the person had said before.  Following over a 30-minute wait, up walks a higher-ranked cast member. Security, I think. He asked us nicely what we were doing. Various children starting sharing what we were told and that's why we are still here. Oh but wait!! He didn't see this one coming. My daughter and her boyfriend had just finished the ride before close. They could see the shoe. So we knew it was there. Quickly it became known to the gentleman also. We explained the situation again, and his response was, "Come with me, and we will get this shoe." Yes, a little magic in Disney really does happen. In less than five minutes, the shoe was safely delivered with my daughter carrying it. The missing slipper had been found. Now it doesn't matter why the other cast members couldn't find it. But what does matter, we knew what was possible in what seemed to be an impossible situation.  It was the methodical pursuit that won the victory in the madness. Your season may not be a missing slipper, size six brown loafer that can be easily retrieved with intentional effort.  The key here to remember, is intentionality. You can get to where you want to go regardless of the season by being intentional. That creates the method to the madness that slows down the frustration directed toward the failures and alerts the hearts to adopt what's possible. PRAYER: May your heart delight in the impossible when you take the steps that make it possible.    "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Whether or not you like Disney, I want you to get to the real picture. Take the first malfunction; a lost shoe on the ride with no spares in the area for a 2-year-old. How can you have magic if you don't have shoes. You want to walk everywhere!! And mind you, this was the first ride. We were told if they found the shoe (which we knew was there because we could see it from the ride), we could come back and check at 11pm when the park closes and pick it up.  So what did we do? We headed over to the ride, speaking to a total of 7 cast members, all of whom confirmed what the person had said before.  Following over a 30-minute wait, up walks a higher-ranked cast member. Security, I think. He asked us nicely what we were doing. Various children starting sharing what we were told and that's why we are still here. Oh but wait!! He didn't see this one coming. My daughter and her boyfriend had just finished the ride before close. They could see the shoe. So we knew it was there. Quickly it became known to the gentleman also. We explained the situation again, and his response was, "Come with me, and we will get this shoe." Yes, a little magic in Disney really does happen. In less than five minutes, the shoe was safely delivered with my daughter carrying it. The missing slipper had been found. Now it doesn't matter why the other cast members couldn't find it. But what does matter, we knew what was possible in what seemed to be an impossible situation.  It was the methodical pursuit that won the victory in the madness. Your season may not be a missing slipper, size six brown loafer that can be easily retrieved with intentional effort.  The key here to remember, is intentionality. You can get to where you want to go regardless of the season by being intentional. That creates the method to the madness that slows down the frustration directed toward the failures and alerts the hearts to adopt what's possible. PRAYER: May your heart delight in the impossible when you take the steps that make it possible.    "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

But in reality, you're stuck in a different dimension. Get out of what is failing you and learn how to thrive when all you do is strive.  How are you really? The holidays are still here.

And sometimes, we think that if we just push through, everything will work itself out. However, that sometimes can be really distorted.  We are spending time away with our entire family. It has been such a blessing for all of us to be together. Yet, there have been some challenges. No, I better correct myself. It's more like a challenge with the most adorable, vivacious 2-year-old you would ever know. He melts my heart all the time.  But that doesn't change the fact that stretching out his day without a nap is wise. Or forcing it upon him to act like an adult when even adults don't quite understand how to act in these situations; long lines, cancellations, closings. Life can be a whole lot of not being able to do what you want when you want, and being strapped to what must happen without any concern for your needs.   Pushing through isn't always the answer.  If you want to learn how to thrive when all you do is strive, give up more than you hold onto. The K.I.S.S. ~ Give up more than you hold onto!   With the look of quitting all that he knows at the age of two, Papa and Grandma simply decided that this was enough. He needed to be removed from what wasn't serving him and put in a place where he could regroup and thrive.  Who likes screaming children anywhere (i.e., grocery stores, theme parks, church, tree lightings, fireworks, etc.)? Imagine what my grandson was thinking. This is torture. You and I are just like a 2-year-old. We are great when things are happening our way. But as soon as our expectations are not met, let the temper-tantrums ring strong (and very loudly). So why do you keep pushing harder? Striving is going after what you don't have as you try to change what you don't like. But we've been trained that pushing through just makes you stronger. Or does it? My grandson would disagree. He was pretty weak-like as he arched his back crying thinking that the more back thrusts, the greater the result. I get what I'm going after.  Stop striving. Look at what you are really doing, not just in your head but in your heart. There needs to be an understanding between the 16-18 inch drop between your brain and heart. They work interchangeably together.  <br />- Disrupt the fight. You can do more when you don't over stress or make yourself miserable.  <br />- Play it safe only to give yourself pause, so you can get a fresh look and then create the cause. We are just coming off Christmas with New Year's around the corner. Make this a different year. <br />- Let your heart be felt, not underestimated. You are stronger than any push in your life.  <br /> Stand for what you believe is true for you in the season you are in. Let the cookie crumbles fall, and focus on the bigger pieces. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. ~ Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) God created the plans for His Son. He does the same for you!! Thrive from the point of where God has your heart. Lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your heart and head connect with God and the plans He has for you. Let go of what is not yours to carry. The burdens no longer have to be temper tantrums, but intentional decisions that move at a pace set in motion by God as you create your now. Dream kingdom dreams, for God is on the move in your life. Happy New Year!   "Be present. Be incredible.

May this special day bring warmth and happiness to you and those you love, a thrill of hope. Merry Christmas! This is a special time meant to be spent with those you love. So today, let's read from the book that gives us a glimpse of a babe who changed the world. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Christmas  Luke 2:1-20 2 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register. 4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,  14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven,<br />     and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”  15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. The K.I.S.S. ~ A thrill of hope!   God kept His promise. He sent His only Son, Jesus. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." ~ John 3:16 What is your reason for this season? Are you willing to play it safe and keep doing what you know because of the comfort that it shows?  Or is God prodding you in a different direction that is stirring your heart, yet causing pause because you might fall apart? Too many things. Too many deadlines.  Are you willing to surrender your gifts to God? Are you willing to give Him everything? To love deeper, to grow stronger, and to have faith no matter where you find yourself.  PRAYER: May God unwrap the gift you present Him as a token of your one and only. Fill your heart with kingdom dreams; a thrill of hope as you create your now.  From my family to yours, many blessings this beautiful Christmas season. Mele Kalikimaka!   "Be present. Be incredible.

May this special day bring warmth and happiness to you and those you love, a thrill of hope. Merry Christmas! This is a special time meant to be spent with those you love. So today, let's read from the book that gives us a glimpse of a babe who changed the world. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,  14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven,<br />     and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”  15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. The K.I.S.S. ~ A thrill of hope!   God kept His promise. He sent His only Son, Jesus. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." ~ John 3:16 What is your reason for this season? Are you willing to play it safe and keep doing what you know because of the comfort that it shows?  Or is God prodding you in a different direction that is stirring your heart, yet causing pause because you might fall apart? Too many things. Too many deadlines.  Are you willing to surrender your gifts to God? Are you willing to give Him everything? To love deeper, to grow stronger, and to have faith no matter where you find yourself.  PRAYER: May God unwrap the gift you present Him as a token of your one and only. Fill your heart with kingdom dreams; a thrill of hope as you create your now.  From my family to yours, many blessings this beautiful Christmas season. Mele Kalikimaka!   "Be present. Be incredible.

I enjoy surprises and the unknown. Yet, I also look forward to making many attempts as to what might happen. But as you know, the best is left to how it all unfolds.  Somewhat like the time you met your spouse—the time when you couldn’t stop thinking about them. And the more time spent together, the more plans were made. I’m sure Joseph and Mary did the same thing. They probably didn’t go to the movie or text each other long conversations. It would have been a little more intimate and simple in nature. All the more reason why Christmas is such a special season. Two people who loved each other and wanted to spend their lives together. It couldn’t be more perfect. Until God had a divine plan. The K.I.S.S. ~ The night that changed the world!   Luke 1:26-38 26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” 29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.” 34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” 35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.” 38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her. But Joseph, too, was visited. Matthew 1:18-24 18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. 19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. 20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” 22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). 24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus. The night that changed the world.  I find it interesting when marriage gets tough, most pack up and run. Mary and Joseph faced struggles beyond anything we could imagine.  However, with the visits from the angels, it became the night that changed the world.  Joseph and Mary had to put away what they thought marriage was. They needed to see marriage through the eyes of God; the richness and fullness of God’s love.  What if you slowed down enough to seek and listen for what God desires in your marriage? <ul> <li>Would you look at your struggles differently?</li> <li>Would your disagreements and arguments be more productive with fewer personal attacks?</li> <li>Would your finances be streamlined to the point of reaching a compromise in living your dreams together?</li> </ul> The hustle and bustle does not have to wear down your marriage. It can be the night that changed the world.  PRAYER: May your heart be filled with all the splendor God has in store for you and your spouse. Let the light in your heart illuminate the hope in your marriage. God delights in your smile and extends His love that is worthwhile; all-encompassing, all-forgiving, and all-accepting.   “Be present. Be incredible.

Who knew that chaos and calm go hand in hand? Buckle up for this holiday ride; peace does abound deep inside. Navigating the roads of chaos and calm is a challenge, no matter what time of year it is. But during Christmas, it seems to be magnified greater than any other time of the year. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I can't help but scratch my head and think, "Oh woe is me!" That's being really honest. At the same time, though, there's a thrill of hope that ignites my day and night.  Who can sleep with that type of expectation? One way you thrive during Christmas is by finding the peace that doesn't come from you, but from the greatest gift ever given. The peace that passes all understanding. (Philippians 4:7) The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the path of peace!   The holiday season is often filled with distractions and demands, which can make it difficult to find joy and meaning in the present moment. Who doesn't want to focus on the joy of the season watching your children experience Christmas. However, it does take a little more effort on our part to find the path of peace. <ol> <li>Set realistic expectations. Or, in my opinion, expect the unexpected. Therefore, you leave no room for disappointment or extreme happiness. It's all about the moment. You hone in on JOY!</li> <li>Find joy in the little things. When you give yourself that space to absorb what's right in front of you, the rush of the day melts away while the peace of life leads the way.</li> <li>Be present. Don't let what matters escape your sightline. People wear glasses/contacts to see more clearly. When you're present, you see the moments in motion, not as credits in the movie.</li> </ol> Despite all of the chaos and stress that can come with the holidays, there is hope. "Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you." ~ 2 Thessalonians 3:16 NIV This passage reminds us that peace is possible, even in the midst of difficult circumstances. It's important to remember that we don't have to rely on our own strength or perfection to find peace. Instead, we can trust in the Lord to give us peace at all times. PRAYER: May your days be filled with the peace that passes all understanding, and your heart be still in order to embrace the beauty amidst all the chaos. And just as Mary did, "But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. (Luke 2:19).   "Be present. Be incredible.

Who knew that chaos and calm go hand in hand? Buckle up for this holiday ride; peace does abound deep inside. Navigating the roads of chaos and calm is a challenge, no matter what time of year it is. But during Christmas, it seems to be magnified greater than any other time of the year. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I can't help but scratch my head and think, "Oh woe is me!" That's being really honest. At the same time, though, there's a thrill of hope that ignites my day and night.  Who can sleep with that type of expectation? One way you thrive during Christmas is by finding the peace that doesn't come from you, but from the greatest gift ever given. The peace that passes all understanding. (Philippians 4:7) The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the path of peace!   The holiday season is often filled with distractions and demands, which can make it difficult to find joy and meaning in the present moment. Who doesn't want to focus on the joy of the season watching your children experience Christmas. However, it does take a little more effort on our part to find the path of peace. <ol> <li>Set realistic expectations. Or, in my opinion, expect the unexpected. Therefore, you leave no room for disappointment or extreme happiness. It's all about the moment. You hone in on JOY!</li> <li>Find joy in the little things. When you give yourself that space to absorb what's right in front of you, the rush of the day melts away while the peace of life leads the way.</li> <li>Be present. Don't let what matters escape your sightline. People wear glasses/contacts to see more clearly. When you're present, you see the moments in motion, not as credits in the movie.</li> </ol> Despite all of the chaos and stress that can come with the holidays, there is hope. "Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you." ~ 2 Thessalonians 3:16 NIV This passage reminds us that peace is possible, even in the midst of difficult circumstances. It's important to remember that we don't have to rely on our own strength or perfection to find peace. Instead, we can trust in the Lord to give us peace at all times. PRAYER: May your days be filled with the peace that passes all understanding, and your heart be still in order to embrace the beauty amidst all the chaos. And just as Mary did, "But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. (Luke 2:19).   "Be present. Be incredible.

Not because of relationships. But merely for the fact of the lack of control in repairing our home. We have been dealing with water damage. And because of supply chain and scheduling, here we sit with Christmas undone. Unfortunately, many people do the same in their every day.

You were created on purpose for a greater purpose. One that you may understand now or might still have questions about how.

"Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." ~ Hebrews 11:1 NIV PRAYER: May your heart be healed, from the hurt that binds your strength, so your faith grows stronger.

What are you gifting your mind, body, and spirit? Do you have everything you need for Christmas? You know, like the presents made or bought, and wrapped? The food you are cooking for the deliciousness of the season?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   The stress we inhale this season can really stifle who we are becoming. It slows us down, makes us aggravated, and pushes us to the edge of a not-so-great attitude. Now, you could choose to remain strapped to the chains of stress and regret more than the wings of hope and grace. However, miracles never cease. During this season of giving and receiving, be kind to yourself first. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be kind to yourself first!   One of the worst things we can do to ourselves is beat ourselves up mentally, emotionally, physically, and even spiritually. We do anything for others, but set our own well-being to the side. Mary, the mother of Jesus, did not do such a thing. She was kind to those around her, and was kind to herself. Mary found favor with God, not because of who she was as in a princess or queen. She found favor in whom she believed and how she treated herself. Do you think God would have placed Jesus with a woman who didn't care for herself, who didn't have a heart for her own well-being? God would not give His precious Son to anyone. He chose Mary. And when He created you, He chose you! That's why is vital for you to care for yourself. It's not about the perfect "barbie" body. Numbers are great, but health is better.  You can't do what God has planned for you here on earth if you are not kind to yourself.  Compassion goes a long way. And you need it every day. So take a page out of Mary's book, and be kind to yourself. Extend compassion in your every day. That's one way to keep your heart tender and connected to your heavenly Father. The season of giving and receiving is being kind to yourself. PRAYER: May your long days be interrupted by the kindness of your own actions as you rest to renew your strength in order to complete God's work for the day. Don't harbor feelings that cause destruction and distort your reality of being who you are becoming. This is the day to celebrate YOU in every way.   "Be present. Be incredible.

What are you gifting your mind, body, and spirit? Do you have everything you need for Christmas? You know, like the presents made or bought, and wrapped? The food you are cooking for the deliciousness of the season?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   The stress we inhale this season can really stifle who we are becoming. It slows us down, makes us aggravated, and pushes us to the edge of a not-so-great attitude. Now, you could choose to remain strapped to the chains of stress and regret more than the wings of hope and grace. However, miracles never cease. During this season of giving and receiving, be kind to yourself first. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be kind to yourself first!   One of the worst things we can do to ourselves is beat ourselves up mentally, emotionally, physically, and even spiritually. We do anything for others, but set our own well-being to the side. Mary, the mother of Jesus, did not do such a thing. She was kind to those around her, and was kind to herself. Mary found favor with God, not because of who she was as in a princess or queen. She found favor in whom she believed and how she treated herself. Do you think God would have placed Jesus with a woman who didn't care for herself, who didn't have a heart for her own well-being? God would not give His precious Son to anyone. He chose Mary. And when He created you, He chose you! That's why is vital for you to care for yourself. It's not about the perfect "barbie" body.

In the hustle and bustle of this holiday season, unwrap the gift that keeps on giving; gratitude soothes the soul even when the body is weakened.  Have you ever played pretend with yourself? I know.

Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   We pretend to be someone for a moment, only to be recognized by the person we are not pretending to be. In other words, we're found out. Who we say that we are is not who we appear to be. It's pretend, or dress-up in the real world.  Unfortunately, I was found out, caught by my youngest son. Now I wasn't doing anything dramatically wrong. Just not living up to my own standards in which I share with my family, and that's including you. So the two of us were driving to go run a quick errand, and all I could do was complain about how people were driving.  And my son said, "Mom, you say to love others, but what are you doing here?" I giggled and attempted to convince him that not liking someone's driving has nothing to do with how I care about them. If you can't drive, you can't drive! But it got me thinking. What if I would start my sentence in the form of gratitude? Do you think my attitude might make a twist in a better direction? Yep!! Gratitude is a gift that keeps on giving.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Unwrap the gift of gratitude!   Let me tell you; your heart will be better for it. AND -- You won't have your child telling you that you're saying one thing and doing another.  During this season, let not your troubles be someone else's struggles. Lift them up by speaking life into them. And the greatest action is showing gratitude.  It's a gift that keeps on giving. Think about Mary and Joseph; their focus from the time they found out that Mary would give birth. They became an outcast in their own community. But that didn't change their hearts.  Mary and Joseph chose to live with gratitude.  It was a gift they gave others from the time they found out of this little miracle that would change the world.  No pressure. Only a gift that keeps on giving. So why not open it every day?  Unwrap the gift that keeps on giving. PRAYER: May your heart melt the troubles of others, so they see the light in the darkness.

This holiday season, don't let your chains hold you down. Give yourself the gift of grace in the pursuit of presence. Do you have all your shopping done? Maybe you have a few small gifts to get, like those stocking stuffers. Or you are awaiting the delivery truck to drop off the boxes of gems. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Christmas reminds me a lot of how we live our lives. It's easy to get others what they want, but rarely are we willing to answer the basics of what we want.  Surprises are more exciting and invites the inspiration of opportunity without needing to be in the know. Strangely enough, you give what is wanted to everyone else, but struggle to ask for what you need. Taking care of others is no big deal. But there never seems to be enough room for you. There are always chains that hold you down.  <br />- Lack of time <br />- Lack of energy <br />- Lack of finances <br />- Lack of motivation <br />- Lack of support <br />- Lack of accountability <br />- Lack of sleep <br /> What if you could wrap up exactly what you need this season? What would it be? I would like to encourage you to consider gifting yourself the gift of grace. The K.I.S.S. ~ Gift yourself grace!   Any time you place a limitation on yourself, the opportunities lessen. You can't see beyond what you complain about. Excuses rule the roost. All you recognize are obstacles, not opportunities.  The world is no longer your oyster. UNLESS you gift yourself grace.  <br />- Forgive before scoring. Break the scoreboard on what you've done right or wrong, and let your failures be learned lessons in your every day. You're not going to do everything the way you hoped or wished. But you can keep moving forward so long as your mind doesn't move backward. "Learn from the past, but stay present for your future." ~ Kristianne Wargo <br />- Presence before grieving. There is a sense of loss when you fail. And in that moment, after the initial emotions are felt, grief sets in. Don't let your chains hold you down. Be present in order to move forward. <br />- Hope before whining. Take AIM for what you want in your life. Leave the complaints and sorrows for another day. See what's possible in the middle of the mess. <br /> Think about the birth of Jesus. Mary was told she would bare a child, which by the way, was the Messiah, yet she was unwed. How can this be? Mary could have whined more than she hoped. But she chose to be hopeful in a stressful time that, in those days, was impossible.  But with God, nothing is impossible. Don't let your chains hold you down. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your heart be filled with the joy of the season, for God's reason is His gift of presence. As failures knock on your door, open it up with a smile of hope. Opportunities abound, so look around. Let your chains fall to the ground. Every day begins with new mercies. Grace gifted by God.    "Be present. Be incredible.

It's not about the decorated boxes adorned with bows or the bright ornaments on the trees. It's the gift in your heart; something only God can do. In the hustle and bustle, and the hurriedness of the season, there is no greater reason than to breathe. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Why do you think God sent His only Son to be born as a babe? It's not about gaining the attention of the world, but for you to see and understand His love for you. God's gift is personal! The K.I.S.S. ~ Something only God can do!   Because my house is under construction and we are in a season of chaos, I haven't put up one tree. For me, that is truly a challenge. Every year since I was little, we would decorate our home, and then we would decorate our church. It's no wonder I want lots and lots of trees every year. Because that's what I grew up with. Who can say no to the beauty of lights that awaken the heart, whether in dark or light? God desires the same for you. He wants to decorate your heart so that you see, feel, know, and trust that He is real. No one else has sacrificed more than Jesus Christ for you. It's something only God can do. And regardless of your circumstances, God loves you!!  As the days turn to nights and the sun rises again, walk by faith, knowing a little baby in a manger is walking with you hand in hand.  PRAYER: May your days be brighter than the nights are dark. As God shines His light for the world to see, know that what matters is between you and He. Look for the God winks whose radiance is indescribable. This is reckless love - something only God can do.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Every year since I was little, we would decorate our home, and then we would decorate our church. It's no wonder I want lots and lots of trees every year. Because that's what I grew up with. Who can say no to the beauty of lights that awaken the heart, whether in dark or light? God desires the same for you. He wants to decorate your heart so that you see, feel, know, and trust that He is real. No one else has sacrificed more than Jesus Christ for you. It's something only God can do. And regardless of your circumstances, God loves you!!  As the days turn to nights and the sun rises again, walk by faith, knowing a little baby in a manger is walking with you hand in hand.  PRAYER: May your days be brighter than the nights are dark. As God shines His light for the world to see, know that what matters is between you and He. Look for the God winks whose radiance is indescribable. This is reckless love - something only God can do.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

But that's because you are looking for something tangible. Get right to the heart and give the gift of joy. Throughout the rest of the year, we focus too much on responsibilities and getting it all right.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But when you live every day with gratitude and invite joy into the conversation, your circumstances and situations don't have as great of a hold on your heart. Therefore, you have more freedom to live who you want to be. And let me tell you -- Your spouse definitely will appreciate you more if you are not harping on what isn't going right. Let's look at what joy is, so we know how to gift it. Joy is a feeling of great pleasure and happiness; delight, jubilation, and triumph. It's not the rugged feeling of being less than or not enough. When God sees you, He has joy. And why do you think God sent His only Son?  Ultimately, so you can have eternal life in Heaven. But He also did it because you are His creation. If you were to look at your spouse the way God sees you, do you think your perspective would be different? Most definitely. So let's give the greatest gift of all; the gift of joy! The K.I.S.S. ~ Give the gift of joy!   And if I can be so frank, stop keeping score.  You are no more perfect than your spouse. So let go of what doesn't work for any relationship, especially marriage. Then, find what brings the two of you together. It's truly about creating joy as a couple. <ol> <li>Create an intimate space. There's no time like the present to be present. Lock away the busyness and be together.</li> <li>Experience something new together. Bake cookies together. Go for a sleigh ride in the park. Build a snowman in the freshly fallen snow. </li> <li>Speak from your heart. If you are one who is guarded all the time, you are separating your spouse from ALL of you. So let down the walls and let your spouse in.</li> </ol> When you give the gift of joy, you are playing on the same team. Don't fight against each other. It only further divides what you have vowed to bring together. This season, make your reason count for more than a bow under the tree. Put a bow on your spouse's heart. Give the gift of joy! PRAYER: May your life as a couple draw you closer to the purpose of why God united the two of you. Breathe in the love of the season to give the greatest reason; joy here on earth.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

It's a great reminder that it truly doesn't matter what's under the tree; experiencing life and creating memories is what will be remembered. We have moved so many times, and in those moves, some of our possessions were lost. At first, you may not notice. However, when it comes to wanting something that you know for certain you had, then it becomes a problem. Of course by this time, you can't do anything about your loss. Yet, when you create memories and spend time together, that can never be taken away. In order to feel more joy this holiday season, give the gift of time! The K.I.S.S. ~ Give the gift of time!   Make space in the next few days and see what you can do as a family. Not something that you give, and is used in a short period of time. But one that keeps giving back; it's the memories!

It's a great reminder that it truly doesn't matter what's under the tree; experiencing life and creating memories is what will be remembered. We have moved so many times, and in those moves, some of our possessions were lost. At first, you may not notice. However, when it comes to wanting something that you know for certain you had, then it becomes a problem. Of course by this time, you can't do anything about your loss. Yet, when you create memories and spend time together, that can never be taken away. In order to feel more joy this holiday season, give the gift of time! The K.I.S.S. ~ Give the gift of time!   Make space in the next few days and see what you can do as a family. Not something that you give, and is used in a short period of time. But one that keeps giving back; it's the memories! PRAYER: May your time spent together multiply the memories you create this season. Keep the arguments at bay, and focus on what matters each day. The gift of time last for an eternity.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

The holidays are not designed to change how you make healthy living easy. So step into your lifestyle with more freedom. Who would have thought that giving yourself permission to celebrate would be a blessing to your health?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Our lives are lived with more NOs than YESes. And if you keep pounding yourself down, it will be more challenging to pick yourself back up. So stop the nonsense.  Look at what really matters in this season of life.  <br />- What are you celebrating? <br />- Why are you celebrating it? <br />- When are you going to celebrate it? <br />- Where is the celebration going to take place? <br />- How can you celebrate it and end the time with a smile? <br /> If your focus is on the celebration, the less drama you create with your relationship with food and fitness. Now, I'm not saying that you get to throw in the towel to healthy living. But I am encouraging you to be reasonable with your personal demands. If you keep putting up boundaries that you know are not attainable (for whatever reason), then you will never get to where you want to be with your health. So take a page out of mom's book, and focus on what matters in the bigger picture. The K.I.S.S. ~ Focus on what matters in the bigger picture!   Our minds are not made to be told over and over again what we can't do. You and I desire freedom, especially when it comes to what we like. The food is pretty tasty. Maybe the workouts aren't grand. Yet, we still torcher ourselves in thinking that we can eat what we want if we exercise a certain way. But, that just squelches our inner desire to be the best both inside and out physically, mentally, and emotionally. You can't do what you aren't willing to commit to. It doesn't matter how many carrots you dangle in front of yourself; it will not happen! So escape the drudgery of the typical fad start times and focus on what matters in the bigger picture.  <br />- Define what freedom means to you when it comes to healthy living. <br />- Take that definition and create the first step to healthy living. <br />- Take A.I.M. during the holidays. Don't wait for Monday to come. <br /> How you make healthy living easy starts with you! There's no magic formula or pill to help you do it all. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your mind understand what your body needs to sustain the health you desire both now and into your future. Be cautious not to confuse your goals with social media posts and society's reflection on what healthy looks like. Let God lead the way in how you live your every day. Ask for His divine intervention. God's got you!   "Train for life.

The holidays are not designed to change how you make healthy living easy. So step into your lifestyle with more freedom. Who would have thought that giving yourself permission to celebrate would be a blessing to your health?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Our lives are lived with more NOs than YESes. And if you keep pounding yourself down, it will be more challenging to pick yourself back up. So stop the nonsense.  Look at what really matters in this season of life.  <br />- What are you celebrating? <br />- Why are you celebrating it? <br />- When are you going to celebrate it? <br />- Where is the celebration going to take place? <br />- How can you celebrate it and end the time with a smile? <br /> If your focus is on the celebration, the less drama you create with your relationship with food and fitness. Now, I'm not saying that you get to throw in the towel to healthy living. But I am encouraging you to be reasonable with your personal demands. If you keep putting up boundaries that you know are not attainable (for whatever reason), then you will never get to where you want to be with your health. So take a page out of mom's book, and focus on what matters in the bigger picture. The K.I.S.S. ~ Focus on what matters in the bigger picture!   Our minds are not made to be told over and over again what we can't do. You and I desire freedom, especially when it comes to what we like. The food is pretty tasty. Maybe the workouts aren't grand. Yet, we still torcher ourselves in thinking that we can eat what we want if we exercise a certain way. But, that just squelches our inner desire to be the best both inside and out physically, mentally, and emotionally. You can't do what you aren't willing to commit to. It doesn't matter how many carrots you dangle in front of yourself; it will not happen! So escape the drudgery of the typical fad start times and focus on what matters in the bigger picture.  <br />- Define what freedom means to you when it comes to healthy living. <br />- Take that definition and create the first step to healthy living. <br />- Take A.I.M. during the holidays. Don't wait for Monday to come. <br /> How you make healthy living easy starts with you! There's no magic formula or pill to help you do it all. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your mind understand what your body needs to sustain the health you desire both now and into your future. Be cautious not to confuse your goals with social media posts and society's reflection on what healthy looks like. Let God lead the way in how you live your every day. Ask for His divine intervention. God's got you!   "Train for life.

Stop dodging what might be an answer to that which you want to change, a method to the madness. Suppressing what you don't like in order to achieve what you do like isn't always the answer to change. It might appear the easy way out to the "grass is greener on the other side."  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But at no point does selling yourself short lead to the express train of success. In fact, you might discover the rut gets a little deeper the more you try to do what is easy. So instead of trying to do what everyone else says to do, change it up. Disrupt what doesn't work and create chaos. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create chaos!   When you create chaos for the right reasons, you interrupt the patterns of comfort and distort the norm. No more hanging on to what feels good. It's time for the change you have been longing for. And that's where C.H.A.O.S. comes. "Create hysterical authenticity over self." ~ Kristianne Wargo You are exaggerating what isn't working to get to what needs to work. This is where you go against the grain.  You don't have to do life the way everyone else is doing life. You see things differently. God shows you things that others can't see, imagine, or fathom. So why steer yourself away from who you are becoming to live a life of misery? I look at this beautiful season of Christmas and its authentic reason.

Stop dodging what might be an answer to that which you want to change, a method to the madness. Suppressing what you don't like in order to achieve what you do like isn't always the answer to change. It might appear the easy way out to the "grass is greener on the other side."  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But at no point does selling yourself short lead to the express train of success. In fact, you might discover the rut gets a little deeper the more you try to do what is easy. So instead of trying to do what everyone else says to do, change it up. Disrupt what doesn't work and create chaos. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create chaos!   When you create chaos for the right reasons, you interrupt the patterns of comfort and distort the norm. No more hanging on to what feels good. It's time for the change you have been longing for. And that's where C.H.A.O.S. comes. "Create hysterical authenticity over self." ~ Kristianne Wargo You are exaggerating what isn't working to get to what needs to work. This is where you go against the grain.  You don't have to do life the way everyone else is doing life. You see things differently. God shows you things that others can't see, imagine, or fathom. So why steer yourself away from who you are becoming to live a life of misery? I look at this beautiful season of Christmas and its authentic reason. God could have chosen a different way to bring Jesus to this earth. Why have Him comes as a babe, one of us?  There was no reason for this madness to create chaos. Or was there? God disrupted the norm; the way the people lived and walked, what they saw, and how they acted. By sending His only Son to be one of us, that's how the gospel came to life. Not just stories,  symbols, and scrolls. But truly the real life! Why not create chaos in a world that appears darker than brighter? You do you!! Live who you are becoming. And in the process of the chaos, remember you've got this because God's got you! A method to the madness. PRAYER: May your chaos be a light in what seems impossible to conquer. As the reason for this season swells in your heart, let that be the authentic bell that rings true to who you are becoming. There are new mercies every day. So spend your day delighting in who God is creating you to become.   "Be present. Be incredible.

It's just a matter of time. But is time really on your side? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I don't know about your schedule, but mine is pretty packed for this time of year. With the season always on max and my mind so tired, it's hard for my body to keep up with what I desire. Talk about real life. So many school concerts, plays, work at the church for Christmas services, and then a few days worth of cooking for the neighbors. How can anyone find the time? But that's exactly what a good marriage needs. A matter of time. So don't leave out what you need to put in, and that's TIME!!! The K.I.S.S. ~ Put in the time!   The hurriedness of the day doesn't have to lead you astray. Focus on what matters. Preparation is everything. And that includes LOVE -- Love for your spouse!!! <ul> <li>Love that shines brighter than the arguments that are loud.</li> <li>Love that brings a gift of wonderment in a season that is busy.</li> <li>Love that slows down every day so the next can be better in every way.</li> <li>Love that waits even though patience is slim to none.</li> <li>Love that gives to the other heart with no strings attached. </li> </ul> All of it is a matter of time. CHALLENGE: During this beautiful season of Advent, how can you prepare to love your spouse? Where can you find the minutes that add up to what feels like an eternity? When can you put your actions in motion? PRAYER: May your heart serve your spouse from a posture of preparation as you navigate the swift rivers of responsibilities. This is your season to be specific about how you love from this day forward.   "Be present. Be incredible.

But it depends on how your child receives you. Don't wait to set the bait. Nowadays, you have to be your child's greatest advocate. You must be willing to go the extra mile to teach them a lesson or be their greatest cheerleader. It's from one extreme to the other and everything in between. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It's no wonder we go to bed exhausted.  There is so much to do as a parent that rest is rarely an option. All I can say is those knees get a little tight at times. But in all seriousness, you get to decide on a daily basis how you want to show up for your child. And that means thinking things through so you don't fly by the seat of your pants. Because, as you know, that's when you just might lose your pants. There is hope. You don't need a Ph.D. in parenting or psychology to raise your kiddos.  Ultimately, don't wait to set the bait. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't wait to set the B.A.I.T.!   YOU need to play full out! <ol> <li>BE PRESENT - You can only love, learn, or lead if you're present.</li> <li>APPRECIATE - Gratitude goes a long way for keeping the calm and steering the ship.</li> <li>INGENIOUS - You need to be clever, inventive, and original. </li> <li>TENACIOUS - It's the stick-to-it-ness! Don't give up.</li> </ol> Don't wait to set the bait! PRAYER: Take what you know and grow your child. Be willing to learn more and sit outside of your comfort zone. Ask for help when needed, but expect the unexpected. Rely on God for strength and endurance. Once a mom, always a mom. Every day counts when you're a parent. Don't let moments go by because it's convenient.    "Be present. Be incredible.

But it depends on how your child receives you. Don't wait to set the bait. Nowadays, you have to be your child's greatest advocate. You must be willing to go the extra mile to teach them a lesson or be their greatest cheerleader. It's from one extreme to the other and everything in between. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It's no wonder we go to bed exhausted.  There is so much to do as a parent that rest is rarely an option. All I can say is those knees get a little tight at times. But in all seriousness, you get to decide on a daily basis how you want to show up for your child. And that means thinking things through so you don't fly by the seat of your pants. Because, as you know, that's when you just might lose your pants. There is hope. You don't need a Ph.D. in parenting or psychology to raise your kiddos.  Ultimately, don't wait to set the bait. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't wait to set the B.A.I.T.!   YOU need to play full out! <ol> <li>BE PRESENT - You can only love, learn, or lead if you're present.</li> <li>APPRECIATE - Gratitude goes a long way for keeping the calm and steering the ship.</li> <li>INGENIOUS - You need to be clever, inventive, and original. </li> <li>TENACIOUS - It's the stick-to-it-ness! Don't give up.</li> </ol> Don't wait to set the bait! PRAYER: Take what you know and grow your child. Be willing to learn more and sit outside of your comfort zone. Ask for help when needed, but expect the unexpected. Rely on God for strength and endurance. Once a mom, always a mom. Every day counts when you're a parent. Don't let moments go by because it's convenient.    "Be present. Be incredible.

If you desire to have a mind and body that serves you well, you have to make healthy choices. Yet, still, why do you doubt? It is a fact that you and I will eventually die. Our temporary home will have fulfilled its purpose, leaving only time to move onto the other side. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But no one wants to look at their day in this manner. In fact, it's quite depressing. However, I can't stress enough how important your health is and the choices you make that add longevity or take it away. Everything you do on a daily basis has an impact on the days, months, and years that follow.  It's not just a one-and-done. You indulge, and then you forget about it. But that indulging costs you. My sweet mother-in-love passed away this past weekend. It was not easy to take her off life support. But as we sat in the room together, reminiscing about the good ole days, I became hypersensitive to the actions we take for or against our bodies. Unfortunately, her life was well-lived, but cut short because of her health; and all of it stemmed from the choices she previously made.  You can't expect your body to care for you if you don't care for it.  And one thing I've noticed about getting older, our determination to achieve something tends to fall short depending on the number of failures that preceded it.  "And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, O you of little faith, "Why do you doubt?" ~ Matthew 14:31 Why is it that we will ask God for guidance in our careers, our marriage, and raising our children, but we don't ask for help when it comes to healthy living?  How backward does that seem? Whether it's out of guilt, shame, or frustration, it's time to look at how you care for your mind and body long-term. Your temporary home requires you to care for yourself. And no! Self-care is not selfish.  It's the gift of life, which in turn is a gift to your family and the world that you touch.  So leave it all on the field.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Leave it all on the field!   The field that you live is in your every day. Everything you do matters!! From what you drink, to what you eat, to how you sleep, to how you move, to the attitude that you exude. YOU matter!!! So what do you need to do this week? Don't consider months down the road when you hope to have lost 10 pounds.  You need to look realistically at where you are now, so you can get to where you want to be. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo It all boils down to your next step. And I don't want you to overlook what's right in front of you.   <br />- Maybe you need to start with protein shakes and eat fewer sweets. <br />- Maybe you need to hydrate better.  <br />- Maybe you need to move more often. <br />- Maybe you need to go the doctor and have a few tests run. <br />- Maybe you need to stop the excuses and do what you know how to do. <br />- Maybe you just need to take that next step.  <br />- Maybe you need to pray. <br />- Maybe you need accountability greater than yourself. <br />- Maybe you need to see the bigger picture. <br /> Life is precious.  As I held my mom-in-love's hand for the last time, and gave her a kiss on her head, I simply asked God to always remind me that I have a choice in how I care for my temporary home; my mind and body. My love for her is not lessened by the lack of care for herself, but heightened by the strength I must increase for myself.  You have a choice to choose a better life. Why do you doubt? PRAYER: May your actions reflect your conviction to experience a well-lived life by choosing to treat your mind and body well. This is the day that the Lord has made. Don't take one breath for granted.    "Be present. Be incredible.

If you desire to have a mind and body that serves you well, you have to make healthy choices. Yet, still, why do you doubt? It is a fact that you and I will eventually die. Our temporary home will have fulfilled its purpose, leaving only time to move onto the other side. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But no one wants to look at their day in this manner. In fact, it's quite depressing. However, I can't stress enough how important your health is and the choices you make that add longevity or take it away. Everything you do on a daily basis has an impact on the days, months, and years that follow.  It's not just a one-and-done. You indulge, and then you forget about it. But that indulging costs you. My sweet mother-in-love passed away this past weekend. It was not easy to take her off life support. But as we sat in the room together, reminiscing about the good ole days, I became hypersensitive to the actions we take for or against our bodies. Unfortunately, her life was well-lived, but cut short because of her health; and all of it stemmed from the choices she previously made.  You can't expect your body to care for you if you don't care for it.  And one thing I've noticed about getting older, our determination to achieve something tends to fall short depending on the number of failures that preceded it.  "And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, O you of little faith, "Why do you doubt?" ~ Matthew 14:31 Why is it that we will ask God for guidance in our careers, our marriage, and raising our children, but we don't ask for help when it comes to healthy living?  How backward does that seem? Whether it's out of guilt, shame, or frustration, it's time to look at how you care for your mind and body long-term. Your temporary home requires you to care for yourself. And no! Self-care is not selfish.  It's the gift of life, which in turn is a gift to your family and the world that you touch.  So leave it all on the field.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Leave it all on the field!   The field that you live is in your every day. Everything you do matters!! From what you drink, to what you eat, to how you sleep, to how you move, to the attitude that you exude. YOU matter!!! So what do you need to do this week? Don't consider months down the road when you hope to have lost 10 pounds.  You need to look realistically at where you are now, so you can get to where you want to be. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo It all boils down to your next step. And I don't want you to overlook what's right in front of you.   <br />- Maybe you need to start with protein shakes and eat fewer sweets. <br />- Maybe you need to hydrate better.  <br />- Maybe you need to move more often. <br />- Maybe you need to go the doctor and have a few tests run. <br />- Maybe you need to stop the excuses and do what you know how to do. <br />- Maybe you just need to take that next step.  <br />- Maybe you need to pray. <br />- Maybe you need accountability greater than yourself. <br />- Maybe you need to see the bigger picture. <br /> Life is precious.  As I held my mom-in-love's hand for the last time, and gave her a kiss on her head, I simply asked God to always remind me that I have a choice in how I care for my temporary home; my mind and body. My love for her is not lessened by the lack of care for herself, but heightened by the strength I must increase for myself.  You have a choice to choose a better life. Why do you doubt? PRAYER: May your actions reflect your conviction to experience a well-lived life by choosing to treat your mind and body well. This is the day that the Lord has made. Don't take one breath for granted.    "Be present.

Responsibilities and mundane activities get in the way of where you want to go. Keep moving forward. Persistence drives passion. Wouldn't it be nice if you could live your dreams with just a blink, and very little hard work? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

And in all honesty, we probably wouldn't want it that easy, because everyone would be doing it. So when life's roller coaster tries to make you sick or distract you from deciding to keep moving forward, buckle up. Persistence drives passion. Persistence is a firm or obstinate continuance in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition. We are in the middle of the holidays, and a lot happens during this time. However, that doesn't mean that you can't accomplish something prior to the new year. Consider it a jumpstart to your renewed dreams. But in order to keep the ball rolling, you've got to stay in the driver's seat.  <ul> <li>You can't give up just because your child is sick.</li> <li>You can't give up just because you are too tired.</li> <li>You can't give up because your excuse list is longer.</li> <li>You can't give up because you don't have the finances.</li> <li>You can't give up because you're not good enough.</li> </ul> The K.I.S.S. ~ Persistence drives passion!   "Don't let what you can't see distract you from where you are going." ~ Kristianne Wargo So go back to the definition of persistence. Persistence is a firm or obstinate continuance in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition. Did you have the chance to watch the Tampa Buccaneers play the New Orleans Saints? It was 16 to 3 in the fourth quarter with the Saints on top. Now, most would say the game was over.  But Brady threw a pass that led them to a 1st and Goal due to defensive pass interference. The Buccaneers get a touchdown to bring them within 6. Luck for them; it was 3 and out for the Saints, which gave the Buccaneers one more chance.  With about 16 seconds on the game clock, Brady threw it into the endzone for a touchdown. But there was an offensive penalty, holding. Once again, the dreams of keeping them in the playoffs were disappearing.  It took 3 more downs for Tom Brady to throw the touchdown to tie the game. The Buccaneers' kicker kicked the PAT for the win. You might be one who could care less about football. But look at it as a teachable moment. If the Buccaneers, including Tom Brady, gave up because of the penalties and being down by 13 points, their dreams of possible playoffs would have been history. But that's not how the team played. And neither should you. You matter!! Your dreams matter!  So it's time to prepare your mind, body, and spirit for an adventure. There is no time like the present to create your now.

The less you have to consciously think about it, the greater the result is, especially long-term.  It's like auto-pilot, but with the pumping of your heart-strong to your head-strong.  Actions ignite motivation.

Passion starts the engine, but only discipline can keep it running. Get your motor running! How badly do you want to live out your purpose while passion keeps the light burning?

Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Discipline is training oneself to do something in a controlled and habitual way. The less you have to consciously think about it, the greater the result is, especially long-term.  It's like auto-pilot, but with the pumping of your heart-strong to your head-strong.  Actions ignite motivation. Everything comes full circle if you are centered on whose you are and who you are becoming. Instead of floundering all over the place, take charge with the power of O.N.E.! The K.I.S.S. ~ The Power of O.N.E. (one non-negotiable event)!   Non-negotiable - Unless there is blood or a flood, then the non-negotiable happens.  <br />- CHOOSE the event that will have the greatest shift or impact in your life right now. <br />- MASTER the non-negotiable regardless of how long it takes to make it happen. <br />- POWER of O.N.E. (One Non-negotiable Event) <br /> PRAYER: May your actions and thoughts be what connect you to your earthly purpose from a heavenly perspective. The only way to live out your dreams is to see them through God's way.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

And is that love calculated by your expectations? To love and to cherish from this day forward requires a deeper, more profound love beyond how you feel. Do you think you can love without cherishing? And does cherishing trump love? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It's easy to say, "I love you," but if you truly love someone, especially when it comes to your spouse, you need to cherish them.  Think about your wedding vows.  I, (name), take you (name), to be my lawfully wedded (wife/husband), to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part. You can hear the echoes of the roller coaster ride of life in the vows. But how many of us take the time to really comprehend and embrace that which we said "I do" to? Not many.  Let's take a moment to draw deeper into what love looks like from the point of a sacrificial love. Cherish is to protect and care for someone lovingly (Google). It's the way to hold your spouse in high regard. The K.I.S.S. ~ Hold your spouse in high regard!   Cherishing someone is an exalted form of how you love them; the highest, noblest, strongest feeling one person can have for another. But because life happens and monotonous activities get in the way, then it's hard to stop and realize what you have every day. Doing your responsibilities is one thing compared to living your responsibilities. You must find harmony in loving deeper than when you were dating.  To love and to cherish. And when you do that, you honor your spouse by knowing their value and holding them in high regard. It's about the great respect!! When was the last time you drove your spouse crazy? Yes, pushing all of his/her buttons for whatever reason. At times, it seems like a reasonable thing to do. You kind of poke fun. But when was the last time you showed high regard for your spouse? Not many can answer that question swiftly.  CHALLENGE: Take time to lift up your spouse and honor him/her. Recognize what he/she is contributing to the family, the community, to the world that he/she touches. Life doesn't have to be as complicated as we make it. Stay committed to deepening your relationship with your husband/wife. Look for ways to serve and honor him/her. Definitely poke fun, but make sure you balance it with sincerity and generosity.  "What you give from the heart can be felt for a lifetime." ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your actions reflect what your heart desires to feel and then dig deeper. May the love God has for you be felt by your spouse. To love and to cherish -- may God richly bless your commitment to each other.   "Be present. Be incredible.

They want what they want in the moment, but don't take the time to understand why they can or cannot have it. Raise your child to respect what is earned. I don't know if I can say it enough. Parenting is hard. There is no magical manual that comes with every child. It's truly a free-for-all. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Or is it? I am in the stage of life where I get to experience my children making adult decisions, along with seeing from the eyes of a grandparent.  Having a two-year-old grandchild brings back the foundation of parenting, truly a pivotal time in the shaping of your child.  My grandson and I were playing follow the leader. However, I was pulling a helicopter as he was pushing his ride-on airplane. At the moment, hitting the helicopter was really fun. It would get knocked on its side and crash. He would giggle every time he did it. Like with everything, there is a time and place. I am one who believes to use toys or things for what they were designed to be used for. The helicopter was not part of the WWE. But that's how he was treating it.  Unfortunately for him, the helicopter was hit one too many times. Grandma made the tough decision and took it away. He looked at me in shock as if he didn't think I would follow through. But that was the ONE thing I was determined to do; follow through. Kids want what they want when they want it. But they need us, parents, to show them how to get it. Taking action in a way that is harmful or hurtful to how the thing (the toy in this situation) is to be used must be addressed quickly.  Your child learns by repetition. If you keep allowing them to do what they want when they want to, what is that teaching them? That they get what they want when they want it. But that's not how the real world works. And the real teachings start in the beginning at a young age. So you've gotta train up early to teach real-life concepts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Train up early to teach real-life concepts!   Some parents would say that it's not a big deal how your grandson plays with the helicopter and airplane.  On the contrary, what he does with something as simple as the toys will be rationalized as he gets older.  If there are no consequences to how to treat something (or someone), how else will your child learn? Train up early to teach real-life concepts.  <br />- Build values by encouraging good and respectful, repetitive actions. - Take hitting for an example. Should you allow your child to hit for fun? NO!! The only way this is good is if you are doing it in an environment that is repeated and understood that it only happens at this time. But as you know, that is age specific. Toddlers should not be hitting for fun. It's not funny or cute. Because what happens when they go to Kindergarten? That hitting you thought was so cute and adorable becomes a push and a shove on the playground.  <br />- Build character by modeling it every day. - What your child sees, your child will do. My son-in-love was walking around the house talking on the phone. It didn't take but a few seconds for my grandson to join in on the march around the room and talking on his phone. The greatest teacher in your child's life is your actions. They are watching everything you do. So if you want to build character, then you must model it. <br />- Build respect through how you treat others. - I don't know if you've noticed, but there isn't a lot of respect nowadays. In fact, there are more demands for what they want. No one wants to wait, and people are impatient. If you want that to change in this world, then you have to show it to your child. You have to be a model of respect. Don't lose your cool. Stay grounded to who you want your child to live like when they get older. <br /> In all that you do, train up your child with your consistency. What you show over and over again will be repeated in the long run. If you want your child to learn how to treat a man or a woman, you have to treat them the way you want your child to act. Respect needs to be brought back into the equation of child-rearing. PRAYER: May God bless you with an abundance of patience and open your heart to loving unconditionally. You will not get everything right, so always pray for your child.  You are doing a great job. Hang in there. A new season is around the corner!   "Be present. Be incredible.

Some parents would say that it's not a big deal how your grandson plays with the helicopter and airplane.  On the contrary, what he does with something as simple as the toys will be rationalized as he gets older.  If there are no consequences to how to treat something (or someone), how else will your child learn? Train up early to teach real-life concepts.  <br />- Build values by encouraging good and respectful, repetitive actions. - Take hitting for an example. Should you allow your child to hit for fun? NO!! The only way this is good is if you are doing it in an environment that is repeated and understood that it only happens at this time. But as you know, that is age specific. Toddlers should not be hitting for fun. It's not funny or cute. Because what happens when they go to Kindergarten? That hitting you thought was so cute and adorable becomes a push and a shove on the playground.  <br />- Build character by modeling it every day. - What your child sees, your child will do. My son-in-love was walking around the house talking on the phone. It didn't take but a few seconds for my grandson to join in on the march around the room and talking on his phone. The greatest teacher in your child's life is your actions. They are watching everything you do. So if you want to build character, then you must model it. <br />- Build respect through how you treat others. - I don't know if you've noticed, but there isn't a lot of respect nowadays. In fact, there are more demands for what they want. No one wants to wait, and people are impatient. If you want that to change in this world, then you have to show it to your child. You have to be a model of respect. Don't lose your cool. Stay grounded to who you want your child to live like when they get older. <br /> In all...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1250</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,confessions,conflict,dads,discipline,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,joy,leadership,mindset,moms,parenting,presence,purposedriven,relationships,routines,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/539a765675882567b284d1ee170f40fa.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>2876 Choose Your Rut Carefully</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/2876-choose-your-rut-carefully--54090678</link><description><![CDATA[Staying where you don't belong for too long only keeps you chained to the complaints that constantly hold you back.

You can consider your aspirations and goals, but if you leave out your health, nothing will be as you dreamed. Encounter your health by impacting the moment. Thanksgiving is wonderful. Too much goodness to enjoy in one day. So why not extend it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Well, most do enjoy those leftovers until the leftovers have taken over. I don't know about you, but I tend to use the leftovers as an excuse to extend the holiday. And then, the next thing you know, it's Christmas and New Year's. Where has the time gone? Am I ever going to get to the lifestyle I desire? Real life. Real struggles. Real people. It's hard to keep up when you're always running behind. Catch-up is not a game to play unless it involves hot dogs and hamburgers.  Real life. Real struggles. Real people. If you really want to live the life of your dreams, you gotta impact the moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Impact the moment!   You don't have time to change everything in one day. You can do it for a little while, but then your drop back to real life...real struggles. You get the picture all too well.  So don't throw away the greatest gift you can give yourself. Impact the moment. <ol> <li>CHOOSE your actions wisely. - That means before you grab 'n go from your refrigerator, stop and think to impact. You get out what you put in. So spend time really honing in on what you want to consciously pay attention to. And then, make a sign or two in order to get your attention and stay on track.</li> <li>REFINE your thoughts. - What you think about, you're attracted to. Use caution with your thoughts. You want your thoughts to inspire and motivate your actions. That's going to help to bring discipline to your moments. </li> <li>ACT on facts, not feelings. - Your feelings lie to you. Your feelings can make you give you comfort even if you don't need it. So deal with the facts. Know what you want and go after it from a factual standpoint. </li> </ol> All of these are moment-to-moment. If you flood your mind with every possible alternative to what will work or not work, you will default to comfort.  Don't get involved in overanalyzing and underestimating the power of YOU! Encounter your health by impacting the moment. PRAYER: May your health be the focus of your longevity here on earth so you can live out God's heavenly design for you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

You can consider your aspirations and goals, but if you leave out your health, nothing will be as you dreamed. Encounter your health by impacting the moment. Thanksgiving is wonderful. Too much goodness to enjoy in one day. So why not extend it? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Well, most do enjoy those leftovers until the leftovers have taken over. I don't know about you, but I tend to use the leftovers as an excuse to extend the holiday. And then, the next thing you know, it's Christmas and New Year's. Where has the time gone? Am I ever going to get to the lifestyle I desire? Real life. Real struggles. Real people. It's hard to keep up when you're always running behind. Catch-up is not a game to play unless it involves hot dogs and hamburgers.  Real life. Real struggles. Real people. If you really want to live the life of your dreams, you gotta impact the moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Impact the moment!   You don't have time to change everything in one day. You can do it for a little while, but then your drop back to real life...real struggles. You get the picture all too well.  So don't throw away the greatest gift you can give yourself. Impact the moment. <ol> <li>CHOOSE your actions wisely. - That means before you grab 'n go from your refrigerator, stop and think to impact. You get out what you put in. So spend time really honing in on what you want to consciously pay attention to. And then, make a sign or two in order to get your attention and stay on track.</li> <li>REFINE your thoughts. - What you think about, you're attracted to. Use caution with your thoughts. You want your thoughts to inspire and motivate your actions. That's going to help to bring discipline to your moments. </li> <li>ACT on facts, not feelings. - Your feelings lie to you. Your feelings can make you give you comfort even if you don't need it. So deal with the facts. Know what you want and go after it from a factual standpoint. </li> </ol> All of these are moment-to-moment. If you flood your mind with every possible alternative to what will work or not work, you will default to comfort.  Don't get involved in overanalyzing and underestimating the power of YOU! Encounter your health by impacting the moment. PRAYER: May your health be the focus of your longevity here on earth so you can live out God's heavenly design for you.   "Be present. Be incredible.

"A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit." (Matthew 7:18) So what tree are you? Where are you in your head? Where are you in your heart?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Do they align with your thoughts and actions? And do those thoughts and actions align with your goals and dreams? So many questions and very few answers. Or maybe more like confusion on steroids. Dr. Caroline Leaf (Switch on Your Brain Every Day) wrote, "Cognitive dissonance cannot be hidden. Living a lie is a roadblock on the road to success and happiness and will prevent you from living up to your full potential." Amazing how we can get in our own way. What we say to ourselves does not align with what we are doing or even what we believe. We just scatter the puzzle pieces forcing some together that appear to make sense.  Then, all you're stuck with is what you think works.  When you say or do something that doesn't fit with who you are, and you can't convince your brain to believe otherwise, the disconnect in life grows stronger while your desires become weakened.  You cannot sustain a life that is opposite to who you are becoming.  Your patterns must be congruent with the lifestyle you are creating. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now!   You get to decide and plan your day according to who you are becoming. There's no need to force what doesn't fit. Commit to being the good tree that produces good fruit. <ol> <li>KNOW who you are. - You can't sustain who you don't know. Your reflection is pivotal in learning how to navigate the fields of fear. Look at yourself in the mirror. Understand your beliefs. Ask more questions of yourself and dig deeper. That WHY does matter.</li> <li>CLEAR the potholes. - You are on a journey. This is the time to get rid of what doesn't fit with you and fill in the gaps with what matters. Sometimes that means you are saying more NOs and fewer YESes. </li> <li>LIVE your life. - This is the life that God created you to live, on purpose for a purpose. Now, you might be somewhat hesitant because you don't know what you don't know. But until you try on the life God created you for, how will you know if it'll fit? You can't know until you try it on.</li> </ol> Stop living a lie and pretending to be someone you're not. It's exhausting, and it's not the life you really desire. So take this first step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When God looks at you, He never settled. When you look at yourself, do not settle.  PRAYER: May your morning thoughts set the tone of your day so you can live out what God has planned for you in His way. Start today with the truth.

"A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit." (Matthew 7:18) So what tree are you? Where are you in your head? Where are you in your heart?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Do they align with your thoughts and actions? And do those thoughts and actions align with your goals and dreams? So many questions and very few answers. Or maybe more like confusion on steroids. Dr. Caroline Leaf (Switch on Your Brain Every Day) wrote, "Cognitive dissonance cannot be hidden. Living a lie is a roadblock on the road to success and happiness and will prevent you from living up to your full potential." Amazing how we can get in our own way. What we say to ourselves does not align with what we are doing or even what we believe. We just scatter the puzzle pieces forcing some together that appear to make sense.  Then, all you're stuck with is what you think works.  When you say or do something that doesn't fit with who you are, and you can't convince your brain to believe otherwise, the disconnect in life grows stronger while your desires become weakened.  You cannot sustain a life that is opposite to who you are becoming.  Your patterns must be congruent with the lifestyle you are creating. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now!   You get to decide and plan your day according to who you are becoming. There's no need to force what doesn't fit. Commit to being the good tree that produces good fruit. <ol> <li>KNOW who you are. - You can't sustain who you don't know. Your reflection is pivotal in learning how to navigate the fields of fear. Look at yourself in the mirror. Understand your beliefs. Ask more questions of yourself and dig deeper. That WHY does matter.</li> <li>CLEAR the potholes. - You are on a journey. This is the time to get rid of what doesn't fit with you and fill in the gaps with what matters. Sometimes that means you are saying more NOs and fewer YESes. </li> <li>LIVE your life. - This is the life that God created you to live, on purpose for a purpose. Now, you might be somewhat hesitant because you don't know what you don't know. But until you try on the life God created you for, how will you know if it'll fit? You can't know until you try it on.</li> </ol> Stop living a lie and pretending to be someone you're not. It's exhausting, and it's not the life you really desire. So take this first step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo When God looks at you, He never settled. When you look at yourself, do not settle.  PRAYER: May your morning thoughts set the tone of your day so you can live out what God has planned for you in His way. Start today with the truth.

It's about something I give. In any season, I commit to not letting the sun go down until I am grateful for all of you.  True love stands by each other’s side on good days and stands closer on bad days. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But for some reason, couples think that the infatuation they found in dating will last a lifetime. No one seemed to give them the bad news before the hard work. Having a thriving marriage takes hard, consistent work. Yes, you can take a few days off. Yet, if you're not one who is willing to commit to loving more, days become months which becomes years, and then you hear the words...I've fallen out of love. I'm reminded this Thanksgiving season to be more grateful. Where gratitude grows, your love shows.  You have to look beyond what you see, and reveal the qualities of who you desire to be. Marriage is a two-way street. However, someone does have to initiate. So leave the complaining and sustaining of mistakes for another dimension and focus on what you can do, starting with "I am grateful for all of you." The K.I.S.S. ~ Grateful for all of you!   Now, one thing I want you to notice is that the statement comes with no expectations. It's not about being grateful when you are being taken care of. It's not about whether or not the honey to-do list is complete. It's about being grateful for ALL of your spouse; the good, the bad, and the ugly. He may not have a great day at work and come home cranky. That doesn't mean you get to stomp on his ego and make him feel worse because he wants to sit around all evening. He may forget something at the store you specifically told him to pick up. But is it necessary to rub his face in how he failed you? You may have wanted flowers for your anniversary, but all you got was a kiss. And you are still holding him responsible for not showing his love? You listen to these small examples that don't seem to be very eventful at the moment. But on the contrary, they are life-altering for any marriage. All of those examples become points on a scoreboard. By the way, keeping the score is wrong. It's hard to love when you're not grateful.  "Love cannot exist without gratitude." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: Love deeper by focusing on how you can be grateful for all of your spouse. COMPLETION: See the humor in the moment. Choose to lift up instead of tear down. Commit to what's possible. CELEBRATE: Every time you say "thank you" or give a pat on the back to your spouse, you are making a deposit in his/her love account.  That's how gratitude grows love. It takes what seems to be less than and makes it more than. Gratitude multiplies your love when expressed every day.  Start today by saying... "I am grateful for all of you." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

No one seemed to give them the bad news before the hard work. Having a thriving marriage takes hard, consistent work. Yes, you can take a few days off. Yet, if you're not one who is willing to commit to loving more, days become months which becomes years, and then you hear the words...I've fallen out of love. I'm reminded this Thanksgiving season to be more grateful. Where gratitude grows, your love shows.  You have to look beyond what you see, and reveal the qualities of who you desire to be. Marriage is a two-way street. However, someone does have to initiate. So leave the complaining and sustaining of mistakes for another dimension and focus on what you can do, starting with "I am grateful for all of you." The K.I.S.S. ~ Grateful for all of you!

It's the 'welcome home' that brings warmth and comfort. Be present on this day and find the blessing. With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season in full swing, it's always a good time to be reminded of the importance of presence. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

They do go hand in hand, kind of like peanut butter and jelly. But maybe today, it's turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Wherever you call home, my prayer for you is to find the blessing. Allow yourself to be consumed by gratitude and give thanks for what is and what's to come. It may not all be good, but God can take what you give Him and multiply it. Psalm 100  1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.<br /> 2 Worship the Lord with gladness;<br />     come before him with joyful songs.<br /> 3 Know that the Lord is God.<br />     It is He who made us, and we are His;<br />     we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.   4 Enter His gates with thanksgiving<br />     and His courts with praise;<br />     give thanks to Him and praise His name.<br /> 5 For the Lord is good and His love endures forever;<br />     His faithfulness continues through all generations.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Find the blessing!   Come back home to the present.  Give yourself permission to BE with the ones you love. No comparison. No competition. No conflicts. Only love. Only hope. Only gratitude. Find the blessing. That blessing you are in search of might be disguised. But don't give up too fast. The longer the search, the deeper the gratitude. Find the blessing. Now your day might be a little unpredictable. But that doesn't give you an excuse not to be present. Fill your heart with gratitude. Find the blessing.  Search for what you want to find. What you search for is what you focus on. Instead of making a way for negative reinforcements like self-talk, excuses, and fear, saddle up to what matters. Find the blessing. "Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:18 From my family to yours, have a blessed Thanksgiving and a beautiful holiday season to come.

This once-a-year holiday does not have to sabotage your weight. Enjoy a guilt-free Thanksgiving feast. Thanksgiving comes around once a year.

You truly can satisfy any tooth (sweet, savory, salty, yummy) without being stuffed. Because only a turkey is good stuffed! So enjoy a guilt-free Thanksgiving feast by laying the ground rules. Stick to the high five! The K.I.S.S. ~ Stick to the high five!   Take a deep breath. You're in for a fast ride. The splurge is about to happen. So let's get ready to stick to the high five.  <br />- Get active. - The more you move, the better use of fuel you've enjoyed. <br />- Eat backward. - Eat what you normally don't get to enjoy. This is when you police your portions. Eat Grandma's sweet potato pie, and leave the bread alone for another day. <br />- Savor the bites. - Really taste your food. Wrap your taste buds around each bite and taste the love. <br />- Be reasonable in your reality. - Holidays are times of celebration. Don't use them as a way to abuse your mental power over yourself. In other words, no self-inflected negative talk.  <br />- Focus on family and friends. - If we're honest, Thanksgiving is not about the bountiful food. It's enjoying the menu of life; family, friends, fellowship, food, and maybe a little football. <br /> Enjoy that guilt-free Thanksgiving feast.  Set aside the scale and the number on the hanger. What matters more is sharing your heart.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

So let's get ready to stick to the high five.  <br />- Get active. - The more you move, the better use of fuel you've enjoyed. <br />- Eat backward. - Eat what you normally don't get to enjoy. This is when you police your portions. Eat Grandma's sweet potato pie, and leave the bread alone for another day. <br />- Savor the bites. - Really taste your food. Wrap your taste buds around each bite and taste the love. <br />- Be reasonable in your reality. - Holidays are times of celebration. Don't use them as a way to abuse your mental power over yourself. In other words, no self-inflected negative talk.  <br />- Focus on family and friends. - If we're honest, Thanksgiving is not about the bountiful food. It's enjoying the menu of life; family, friends, fellowship, food, and maybe a little football. <br /> Enjoy that guilt-free Thanksgiving feast.  Set aside the scale and the number on the hanger. What matters more is sharing your heart.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Stop bullying yourself in your every day, and stand up with a gratitude mindset in every way. Appreciation is underrated. With all the stuff happening in this world, we have to pause and figure out what really matters.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Have you ever heard of the saying "attitude of gratitude"? Well, when you think about it, the attitude comes from your mindset. Hence, the gratitude mindset.  When you talk about gratitude, it seems to be almost taken for granted now. It's become something we chat about, but do not really take to heart. Why? It's easy to count your blessings when things are good. But what about during times of pain, hurt, sorrow, loneliness, helplessness, sickness, and hopelessness? What is your attitude, then? In order to adopt a gratitude mindset, you have to put forth the effort to be thankful for the blessings when the "hard knock life" sets in. No reason to wait until everything is perfect, because you and I both know that progress is the focus. With this being the week of Thanksgiving, why not practice the attitude of gratitude and make a mindset shift. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make a mindset shift!   When was the last time you heard a sincere "thank you"? Very rarely do we hear "thank you" with no strings attached. The expectations of what we want clashes with what we get. Therefore, most of us are wandering around with a chip on our shoulders.  Who needs all that extra weight? Seriously.... Dinner hasn't even been served.  However, if you want to impact the world you touch, especially this Thanksgiving season, you need to make a gratitude mindset shift. <ol> <li>SEE your day with HOPE-filled lenses. - Getting through your day doesn't require you to be a jerk to others, let alone yourself. Even though times might be hard and you find yourself in a battle, look at your day and see what's possible. "Hope isn't created in your successes. It's found and believed in the trenches." ~ Kristianne Wargo</li> <li>DO for others what you want to be done for you. - Part of living with a gratitude mindset comes from doing unto others. You've heard of the golden rule. Why not serve more than ask? Why not give more than take? "Do to others as you would have them do to you. (Luke 6:31)"</li> <li>SHIFT from expectation to appreciation. - No matter how kind you are to others, your expectations can kill. Instead of constantly demanding and forcing yourself on other people's thoughts and actions, start with a word of gratitude. Let them know what they mean to you. Then, you are setting the tone not just for their heart to receive, but for you to believe. Hard stuff can be done. You can get through whatever junk you're dealing with.</li> </ol> See. Do. Shift. "Thank you" does carry more weight. It puts a smile on your face, a skip in your step, and joy in your heart.  Start practicing that appreciation by sharing more of your gratitude this season.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Stop bullying yourself in your every day, and stand up with a gratitude mindset in every way. Appreciation is underrated. With all the stuff happening in this world, we have to pause and figure out what really matters.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Have you ever heard of the saying "attitude of gratitude"? Well, when you think about it, the attitude comes from your mindset. Hence, the gratitude mindset.  When you talk about gratitude, it seems to be almost taken for granted now. It's become something we chat about, but do not really take to heart. Why? It's easy to count your blessings when things are good. But what about during times of pain, hurt, sorrow, loneliness, helplessness, sickness, and hopelessness? What is your attitude, then? In order to adopt a gratitude mindset, you have to put forth the effort to be thankful for the blessings when the "hard knock life" sets in. No reason to wait until everything is perfect, because you and I both know that progress is the focus. With this being the week of Thanksgiving, why not practice the attitude of gratitude and make a mindset shift. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make a mindset shift!   When was the last time you heard a sincere "thank you"? Very rarely do we hear "thank you" with no strings attached. The expectations of what we want clashes with what we get. Therefore, most of us are wandering around with a chip on our shoulders.  Who needs all that extra weight? Seriously.... Dinner hasn't even been served.  However, if you want to impact the world you touch, especially this Thanksgiving season, you need to make a gratitude mindset shift. <ol> <li>SEE your day with HOPE-filled lenses. - Getting through your day doesn't require you to be a jerk to others, let alone yourself. Even though times might be hard and you find yourself in a battle, look at your day and see what's possible. "Hope isn't created in your successes. It's found and believed in the trenches." ~ Kristianne Wargo</li> <li>DO for others what you want to be done for you. - Part of living with a gratitude mindset comes from doing unto others. You've heard of the golden rule. Why not serve more than ask? Why not give more than take? "Do to others as you would have them do to you. (Luke 6:31)"</li> <li>SHIFT from expectation to appreciation. - No matter how kind you are to others, your expectations can kill. Instead of constantly demanding and forcing yourself on other people's thoughts and actions, start with a word of gratitude. Let them know what they mean to you. Then, you are setting the tone not just for their heart to receive, but for you to believe. Hard stuff can be done. You can get through whatever junk you're dealing with.</li> </ol> See. Do. Shift. "Thank you" does carry more weight. It puts a smile on your face, a skip in your step, and joy in your heart.  Start practicing that appreciation by sharing more of your gratitude this season.    "Be present. Be incredible.

But you, Lord my God, brought my life up from the pit. ~ Jonah 2:6 (NIV) No matter the depth of the pit, God is with you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   His presence goes before you always, and no matter how deep you are in that pit, He can always pull you out. However, sometimes we feel as if we've dug ourselves in so deep that we can't escape. Remember, it's not about what you can do. It's letting God do what He deems necessary and appropriate for where you are now.  If you desire to be freed from the pit, follow where God is leading and obey Him with your words and actions. That's where you will find the freedom you seek. The K.I.S.S. ~ Up from the pit!   But on the other hand, sometimes you're in the pit because of someone else's doings. How can you climb out of something that you didn't create or even ask for? It's like you're an extra in the movie with no real part, until you have a real part. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. (Proverbs 3:5-6) In those unfortunate circumstances, know that God redeems all. You have to let Him be God, and you do you. Relinquish control and surrender, knowing in advance that God is moving on your behalf.  And regardless of your circumstances and situations, lean on Him.  Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name. For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations. ~ Psalm 100:4-5 There is a way out from where you are. You may not see it, because you're in the eye of the storm. You can't see what you can't see. But God can!  Stop pushing, and let God start pulling!   "Be present. Be incredible.

You are created for greatness, and you know on this side of heaven, "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo So what does it look like to stand out? For some, there needs to be a bounty of confidence, or that's just not going to happen. Yet, at the same time, you can reason with yourself in this season why you need to stand out.

When I first started considering podcasting, there were so many ways to do it. And one common thread was to make sure you knew your avatar.

Your tank is full of exhaustion and anxiety. But nothing is getting done. How do you climb to the top of the impossible? What is your middle name? During this season, I bet it rings a little like B....U....S....Y!! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Yeah -- all too familiar of a name. But unfortunately, this is the season to be extra. And you complicate it with not having two seasons prior to this. So much pressure. So many responsibilities. So much to do.  Why you? Because you want what's best for the family and all the people in your life. But how does that fit in with you and your health? If you want to climb to the top of the impossible mountain, you have to slow down to speed up. The K.I.S.S. ~ Slow down to speed up!   Crazy concept??? Maybe! But is what you're doing now getting you where you want to be in this season of life? I get it. You have questions galore. However, when your body aches, your health begins to fail, you have less energy, you are short-tempered, and relationships are struggling to survive. Is that your slowing down point? Enough is enough! Be the game changer in your journey. Slow down to speed up. Too many of our days are spent on the go, rushing here and rushing there. Soon you're at the bottom of the mountain you've been trying to climb for days, months, and even years. You cannot control time, but you can control how you spend your time. With health brings wisdom.   <br />- LISTEN to your MIND, BODY, and SPIRIT. <br />- LOCATE and KNOW your TRIGGER times. <br />- Make time to SLOW DOWN...LESS is more! <br /> It's okay not to be superwoman. You need to set yourself up for success. And that comes with firm NOs and excited YESes. One trick I want to give you this season. Look into your eyes. If they are puffy and dry, darker under the skin, that's a good indication that something's gotta give. It's hard to hide what the eyes can see. So be careful and wise, and look for what you don't see.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Yeah -- all too familiar of a name. But unfortunately, this is the season to be extra. And you complicate it with not having two seasons prior to this. So much pressure. So many responsibilities. So much to do.  Why you? Because you want what's best for the family and all the people in your life. But how does that fit in with you and your health? If you want to climb to the top of the impossible mountain, you have to slow down to speed up. The K.I.S.S. ~ Slow down to speed up!   Crazy concept??? Maybe! But is what you're doing now getting you where you want to be in this season of life? I get it. You have questions galore. However, when your body aches, your health begins to fail, you have less energy, you are short-tempered, and relationships are struggling to survive. Is that your slowing down point? Enough is enough! Be the game changer in your journey. Slow down to speed up. Too many of our days are spent on the go, rushing here and rushing there. Soon you're at the bottom of the mountain you've been trying to climb for days, months, and even years. You cannot control time, but you can control how you spend your time. With health brings wisdom.   <br />- LISTEN to your MIND, BODY, and SPIRIT. <br />- LOCATE and KNOW your TRIGGER times. <br />- Make time to SLOW DOWN...LESS is more! <br /> It's okay not to be superwoman. You need to set yourself up for success. And that comes with firm NOs and excited YESes. One trick I want to give you this season. Look into your eyes. If they are puffy and dry, darker under the skin, that's a good indication that something's gotta give. It's hard to hide what the eyes can see. So be careful and wise, and look for what you don't see.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

So be careful what you say, especially to yourself. Words have power even in the whispers. There's always a tendency to point out when others fall short in life decisions and choices.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   We ponder the idea that we would have made a better decision if placed in the same circumstances. But the hard knock truth of it all, is we don't know what we don't know. You can say you would do something, but knowing for certain. That's a strong statement.  But do you also know what else is a strong statement? Everything that you say, but no one can hear. Think about it. It's in the quiet place where darkness looms, confidence wavers, and hope derails.  Words have power.  However, most of us don't realize the power until the damage has already been done.  <br />- An argument with your spouse <br />- A yelling match with your colleague <br />- A heated discussion with your child <br />- A disagreement with the customer service rep on the phone <br />- A text argument with technical support <br /> Yet those are words that carry consequences in which everyone heard. But what about the words that are silent, the words no one hears but you?  Even though your tongue may not verbally expel the words, the power still exists. Words have power even in the whispers. Instead of beating yourself up, risk your own failure to claim your success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Risk your own failure to claim your success!   You were created on purpose for a purpose. But that doesn't mean you're perfected. You are going to have more failures than successes. However, each failure leads you closer to success. In order to do that, you gotta get out of your own head.  <br />- Plant a landscape of hope! Use words that inspire your dream faucet. Use words that make your heart happy. Use words that are truth-telling but not scab-ripping. Build upon it every day. So when a drought occurs, you'll be ready with what you've stored up. <br />- Use your failures as a stepping stone! "Failure is a stepping stone to greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  As you go on your journey, jump from one stone to the next to get to the other side. It builds strength which in turn builds endurance. All of what you need on your journey to greatness. <br />- Take A.I.M.! As much as you talk smack to yourself, you can also get stuck in your excuses. The quickest way to success comes from action. If you're not taking action, where will you find success? You can't. So buckle up for the ride, and take A.I.M. -- action ignites motivation. <br /> This is the beginning of the sweet whispers that assist you in your achieving your goals and dreams. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo "But you first have to tame the wild in order to get to where you can smile! Words have power even in the whispers." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

So be careful what you say, especially to yourself. Words have power even in the whispers. There's always a tendency to point out when others fall short in life decisions and choices.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   We ponder the idea that we would have made a better decision if placed in the same circumstances. But the hard knock truth of it all, is we don't know what we don't know. You can say you would do something, but knowing for certain. That's a strong statement.  But do you also know what else is a strong statement? Everything that you say, but no one can hear. Think about it. It's in the quiet place where darkness looms, confidence wavers, and hope derails.  Words have power.  However, most of us don't realize the power until the damage has already been done.  <br />- An argument with your spouse <br />- A yelling match with your colleague <br />- A heated discussion with your child <br />- A disagreement with the customer service rep on the phone <br />- A text argument with technical support <br /> Yet those are words that carry consequences in which everyone heard. But what about the words that are silent, the words no one hears but you?  Even though your tongue may not verbally expel the words, the power still exists. Words have power even in the whispers. Instead of beating yourself up, risk your own failure to claim your success. The K.I.S.S. ~ Risk your own failure to claim your success!   You were created on purpose for a purpose. But that doesn't mean you're perfected. You are going to have more failures than successes. However, each failure leads you closer to success. In order to do that, you gotta get out of your own head.  <br />- Plant a landscape of hope! Use words that inspire your dream faucet. Use words that make your heart happy. Use words that are truth-telling but not scab-ripping. Build upon it every day. So when a drought occurs, you'll be ready with what you've stored up. <br />- Use your failures as a stepping stone! "Failure is a stepping stone to greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  As you go on your journey, jump from one stone to the next to get to the other side. It builds strength which in turn builds endurance. All of what you need on your journey to greatness. <br />- Take A.I.M.! As much as you talk smack to yourself, you can also get stuck in your excuses. The quickest way to success comes from action. If you're not taking action, where will you find success? You can't. So buckle up for the ride, and take A.I.M. -- action ignites motivation. <br /> This is the beginning of the sweet whispers that assist you in your achieving your goals and dreams. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo "But you first have to tame the wild in order to get to where you can smile! Words have power even in the whispers." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

How did I find myself in this position? All you want is to lead a simple life full of love, respect, and grace. But everything around you says otherwise. This is real life.  The K.I.S.S. ~ I will not be shaken!   Rest is not found in your own knowledge. It's not found in your sleeping. Rest is given by God because of your faith, knowing that He is your hope. In the corporate world, companies are always looking for a leg up on the competition. If they try harder, then their bottom line should reflect accordingly. Yet marketing tactics and strategies don't always convert with the consumer. They want your attention, but they don't always get it. Why do you think God goes directly to you? He's not looking to satisfy the world. He doesn't use marketing tactics and strategies to divert your attention. Where is God's bottom line? You see, your heavenly Father desires to have your heart every day. He sprinkles breadcrumbs from heaven, the blessings amongst the messes. But you must be alert. Walk by faith, knowing God's got you. You don't have to prove yourself. You are enough. You are loved. You are worthy. But don't miss this. Find rest in God. Not from Black Friday Sales Events. Not from your boss. Not from your spouse.  Hope only comes from God. Not from your bank account balance. Not from your achievements. Not from a clean house.  God is your rock and your salvation. Let God be your fortress for you will not be shaken.   "Be present. Be incredible.

In marriage, you can end up doing the same. Are you living together, but apart? How consumed are you in your daily responsibilities that you barely recognize if it's morning or night? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Seasons in our life can drain the love out of our marriage. And it has nothing to do with whether or not you're still in love and care deeply for your spouse. It all boils down to time and presence. There isn't enough time in the day to do all that needs to be done. And that includes being married. You get the main things done.  <br />- Feeding the children because they can't do it for themselves <br />- Feeding the animals <br />- Paying the bills <br />- Cleaning the house <br />- Laundry <br />- Grocery shopping <br />- Transport kids to activities <br />- Attend work events <br />- Yardwork <br /> Oh, wait!! Then you have to sleep. There's no room for marriage. Yet if you look in your bedroom, there's a person laying next to you. Many couples find themselves living together, but apart. They have good intentions to live life together. But the responsibilities and demands are greater than the magnetism of love. If you discover that you are settling into a season such as this, how do you climb out of it before you fall into it? Make your presence known. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your presence known!   And this kind of presence is not from an egotistical persona.  When you make your presence known, you are intentionally laying the ground to celebrate each other in the moment you do have. It's not about trying to spend 18 hours together. It's about making a moment feel like it lasts 18 hours. That's intention. That's presence! Too much of our time is wasted on irrelevant excursions. You talk about the responsibilities but leave behind what matters most. Love in the nooks and crannies of your day can be as fruitful as spending 24 hours together. However, the key is presence. CHALLENGE: What can you do to be more present with your spouse? CAUTION: Don't think too big. Remember, this season is about the nooks and crannies of your day.  CELEBRATE: Find a way to celebrate each other.  "Love grows when you are present." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

In marriage, you can end up doing the same. Are you living together, but apart? How consumed are you in your daily responsibilities that you barely recognize if it's morning or night? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Seasons in our life can drain the love out of our marriage. And it has nothing to do with whether or not you're still in love and care deeply for your spouse. It all boils down to time and presence. There isn't enough time in the day to do all that needs to be done. And that includes being married. You get the main things done.  <br />- Feeding the children because they can't do it for themselves <br />- Feeding the animals <br />- Paying the bills <br />- Cleaning the house <br />- Laundry <br />- Grocery shopping <br />- Transport kids to activities <br />- Attend work events <br />- Yardwork <br /> Oh, wait!! Then you have to sleep. There's no room for marriage. Yet if you look in your bedroom, there's a person laying next to you. Many couples find themselves living together, but apart. They have good intentions to live life together. But the responsibilities and demands are greater than the magnetism of love. If you discover that you are settling into a season such as this, how do you climb out of it before you fall into it? Make your presence known. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your presence known!   And this kind of presence is not from an egotistical persona.  When you make your presence known, you are intentionally laying the ground to celebrate each other in the moment you do have. It's not about trying to spend 18 hours together. It's about making a moment feel like it lasts 18 hours. That's intention. That's presence! Too much of our time is wasted on irrelevant excursions. You talk about the responsibilities but leave behind what matters most. Love in the nooks and crannies of your day can be as fruitful as spending 24 hours together. However, the key is presence. CHALLENGE: What can you do to be more present with your spouse? CAUTION: Don't think too big. Remember, this season is about the nooks and crannies of your day.  CELEBRATE: Find a way to celebrate each other.  "Love grows when you are present." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Moms got it rough. Remember the times when you paused for a brief moment to realize what you were saying you've said about 100 times before? You don't know what you don't know. Kids can drive you crazy, and yet you still have to maintain your calm in the chaos.  Where is the peace? You want to teach them what they don't know, but they aren't listening. Do we have to get on TikTok or SnapChat to be heard? All I can say is that's a marketing idea the social media giants have not thought of. (Thank goodness!) But let's be real and honest.

But getting your child to listen, where do you start when they don't know what they don't know? You've gotta level the playing field. The K.I.S.S. ~ Level the playing field!   If it's one thing I learned in corporate that works well in the family is to level the playing field. Sometimes you just have to step up your game.  <ol> <li>Get creative! Don't let someone else's cuteness overrule your impact. How you teach is age or stage-specific. Maybe you use a movie to teach right from wrong.</li> <li>Watch for patterns! Believe it or not, your child has patterns with how they do things. It might be the way they react to you when you interrupt their playtime for chore time. When you are alert and aware, you can play to those strengths and level the playing field. Call it unique trickery. </li> <li>Walk the talk! In other words, model more than you talk. Your child mutes you when you talk. So if you're modeling what you want to teach them, eventually, it will rub off. Now, you can use your words; just do it sparingly without talking as long as a dissertation.</li> </ol> Don't get all bent out of shape because you don't get it right the first time with your children.

Who needs resolutions? You can start any time and make it your new year. Hope is not lost. The time is now. No need to put it off. No need to stress about it. The focus is to do what you can in this season by making intentional choices. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   What impact would it have on your life to be able to get up every morning with more energy; that spring in your step that keeps the day lite? How did you wake up this morning? Running for the coffee. Hitting the snooze button. Taking a morning nap. How would that change your day if you felt like you didn't have to run for the coffee or hit the snooze button? You could just be excited for the day. You see, sometimes we make decisions for the end goal, not what is needed for right now. Hope is not lost.  Create your now and hit the reset button. "Peace of mind is doing what you do best at the time you're doing it." ~ Kristianne Wargo The key is.... You must be DOING it! We are filling our lives with stuff that doesn't matter. So when are you going to decide that TODAY matters, not the stuff? You can choose to keep doing what you're doing, but where will that get you? And how long have you been trying to get your healthy living on track? The part we tend to forget is what we can do. Beating yourself up over what you didn't do only sets you back. You aren't looking for a way to turn back time.  You want to control how you respond in the time you're given. Hope is not lost.  You have every opportunity to do what it takes to not only enjoy life, but live a vibrant life.  Take the calendar out of the picture and live daily for your health! The K.I.S.S. ~ Live daily for your health!   When you take the calendar out of your focus, you can embrace and embark on a life-changing journey. Healthy living is making it a lifestyle! It's not just doing something for a short period of time and then choosing to go back to your old ways. That's the diet mentality. You must decide what you really want, drop the excuses, and then put it into action. Transformation takes DAILY effort. It's not about how many weeks you want to lose weight. It's not about determining what foods you will fuel your body with. It's having a DAILY DIRECTION and keeping on task. You are flexing your consistency muscle. That's where your win shows up for your health. <ol> <li>DECIDE what you need to work on in regard to your health. You must have an idea of where you want to go. You just don't jump in the car and start driving and seeing where you'll end up. Your health needs direction. You need a GPS system, and that starts with where you want to go.</li> <li>Intentionally PLAN your next step. The next step won't happen unless you decide and commit to what you need to be doing. And not taking such BOLD "be all, end all" goals. Remember, peace of mind is doing what you do best at the time you're doing it.</li> <li>Take A.I.M. (Action ignites motivation.) Nothing feels better than seeing yourself take action, feeling your body change, and soon winning your long-term goal of healthy living.</li> </ol> People set audacious goals and believe that just by setting the goals and thinking about them, the goal will spontaneously be conquered. It's just gonna happen. Stop living in a fictitious world. Break away from the old habits. Start your new year NOW!! You should be tired of putting your health on hold. TODAY is your new year.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Live daily for your health!   When you take the calendar out of your focus, you can embrace and embark on a life-changing journey. Healthy living is making it a lifestyle! It's not just doing something for a short period of time and then choosing to go back to your old ways. That's the diet mentality. You must decide what you really want, drop the excuses, and then put it into action. Transformation takes DAILY effort. It's not about how many weeks you want to lose weight. It's not about determining what foods you will fuel your body with. It's having a DAILY DIRECTION and keeping on task. You are flexing your consistency muscle. That's where your win shows up for your health. <ol> <li>DECIDE what you need to work on in regard to your health. You must have an idea of where you want to go. You just don't jump in the car and start driving and seeing where you'll end up. Your health needs direction. You need a GPS system, and that starts with where you want to go.</li> <li>Intentionally PLAN your next step. The next step won't happen unless you decide and commit to what you need to be doing. And not taking such BOLD "be all, end all" goals. Remember, peace of mind is doing what you do best at the time you're doing it.</li> <li>Take A.I.M. (Action ignites motivation.) Nothing feels better than seeing yourself take action, feeling your body change, and soon winning your long-term goal of healthy living.</li> </ol> People set audacious goals and believe that just by setting the goals and thinking about them, the goal will spontaneously be conquered. It's just gonna happen. Stop living in a fictitious world. Break away from the old habits. Start your new year NOW!! You should be tired of putting your health on hold. TODAY is your new year.

Don't let it be you. Continue the search for more as you explore who you are becoming.  When was the last time the thought of "I'm not enough" crossed your mind? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Unfortunately, those who want to impact the world they touch fall into this self-sabotage too easily.  In fact, I believe we are stricken with this reflection multiple times when we look in the mirror.  And what happens when you find yourself here? What is your internal conversation? What whispers are you yelling to yourself over and over again? It's next to impossible to do what you were created to do if you run yourself in circles of disbelief, entangling your confidence in failures, and trash-talking who you are becoming.  What more are you searching for?   <br />- More meaning <br />- More money <br />- More power <br />- More influence <br />- More things <br />- More children <br />- More positions <br />- More grace <br />- More forgiveness <br />- More beauty <br />- More knowledge <br />- More leadership <br />- More accolades <br /> More of what are you in search of? You can't do what you were called to do, what you were created to do, if you keep hanging out with your destructive self. At some point, you have give up to get out. The K.I.S.S. ~ G.I.V.E. up to get out!   Look through the lens of tenacity. 1. GRACE - Live by the grace that God gives you. You are not doing life alone. So why keep trying to do it your way? Do it God's way. 2. ILLUMINATE - You have got to put to bed the lies and reveal the truths. When you let your light shine, using your gifts and talents, you don't have to force anything. You work within your zone of genius. You do what God created you to do. Let your light shine! 3. VACATE - You can't get out if you're not willing to give up. So vacate the premises that do not serve you. Change your thoughts to change your mind. Replace the whispers that cut you down and destroy your confidence with encouraging words and phrases. What you think about, you bring about. So vacate where you should not live in your mind. 4. ENRICH - Surround yourself with wise counsel. Walk with the wise and become wise. (Proverbs 13:20) Read what challenges you emotionally, physically, spiritually, and relationally. Ground yourself with wisdom.   Give up to get out!  Life is a beautiful thing. Look for opportunities amongst the obstacles.  The search for more starts within.  Don't try and be someone you're not. Hang on to what matters. Don't let your heart be trampled by your own whispers. Calm the chaos with hope.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  Today, you get to take that one step.

Continue the search for more as you explore who you are becoming.  When was the last time the thought of "I'm not enough" crossed your mind? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Unfortunately, those who want to impact the world they touch fall into this self-sabotage too easily.  In fact, I believe we are stricken with this reflection multiple times when we look in the mirror.  And what happens when you find yourself here? What is your internal conversation? What whispers are you yelling to yourself over and over again? It's next to impossible to do what you were created to do if you run yourself in circles of disbelief, entangling your confidence in failures, and trash-talking who you are becoming.  What more are you searching for?   <br />- More meaning <br />- More money <br />- More power <br />- More influence <br />- More things <br />- More children <br />- More positions <br />- More grace <br />- More forgiveness <br />- More beauty <br />- More knowledge <br />- More leadership <br />- More accolades <br /> More of what are you in search of? You can't do what you were called to do, what you were created to do, if you keep hanging out with your destructive self. At some point, you have give up to get out. The K.I.S.S. ~ G.I.V.E. up to get out!   Look through the lens of tenacity. 1. GRACE - Live by the grace that God gives you. You are not doing life alone. So why keep trying to do it your way? Do it God's way. 2. ILLUMINATE - You have got to put to bed the lies and reveal the truths. When you let your light shine, using your gifts and talents, you don't have to force anything. You work within your zone of genius. You do what God created you to do. Let your light shine! 3. VACATE - You can't get out if you're not willing to give up. So vacate the premises that do not serve you. Change your thoughts to change your mind. Replace the whispers that cut you down and destroy your confidence with encouraging words and phrases. What you think about, you bring about. So vacate where you should not live in your mind. 4. ENRICH - Surround yourself with wise counsel. Walk with the wise and become wise. (Proverbs 13:20) Read what challenges you emotionally, physically, spiritually, and relationally. Ground yourself with wisdom.   Give up to get out!  Life is a beautiful thing. Look for opportunities amongst the obstacles.  The search for more starts within.  Don't try and be someone you're not. Hang on to what matters. Don't let your heart be trampled by your own whispers. Calm the chaos with hope.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  Today, you get to take that one step.

Most of the time we want control We want to know that we've got it all together. But let's go to the World Series. "Sometimes it's the toughest game that you come out of that's the best game ever!"

Life is precious. Life is a gift. Don't waste a breath." ~ Kristianne Wargo But sometimes we do. We drown ourselves in self-induced frustration when things don't go our way. We throw temper tantrums when challenges overwhelm our hearts.  Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield. ~ Psalm 5:12 That is my prayer for you today, my friend. Don't fret about what you can't control. See the possibilities from a heavenly perspective.  God has extraordinary plans for you. (Jeremiah 29:11) But you have to walk by faith, knowing He has the plans. "In their hearts, humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps." ~ Proverbs 16:9 You might be swimming in frustration. But let God carry you to the shore and establish your steps.  Walk knowing He's got you. Really spend time in prayer listening to what He is telling you. Be aware of what's happening in your life.  Don't take anything for granted. See with your whole self - mind, body, and spirit.  This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24)   "Be present. Be incredible.

Marriages last long because two people made a choice to work for it, fight for it, and keep it. Love for a lifetime.  Are you holding your spouse to a higher standard? Love for a lifetime is worth millions of tries. Would you bet on your marriage or the Powerball? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It's not about being perfect, because perfect does not exist. Yet, we have these fairytales that tell us otherwise. If we don't have our prince charming, or if we do and he wrongs us, then maybe it's time to move on. But love for a lifetime takes commitment. Think about it. If love was easy, everyone would be in love. But it's not! In fact, it's easier to walk away than it is to fight. And it doesn't help the "family structure" when society makes it easy to break the ties and get a divorce. Love for a lifetime requires sacrifice, grace, and commitment. Are you ready for the fight? The K.I.S.S. ~ Ready for the fight!   If you desire that love for a lifetime, there is a fight to be won. But it's not one with your spouse, but one with yourself. 1. Forgiveness - Life is not perfect; so you have to be willing to push through the failures, hurts, and disagreements, and forgive that which does not meet your expectations. 2. Sacrifice - You have to be willing to sometimes give up what you want. It's putting your personal preferences aside to serve the greater good of the relationship. 3. Grace - As much as you give grace, you, too, need to be willing to receive grace. It goes both ways. 4. Commitment - When the going gets tough, are you holding on?  This is what wraps around love.  Love for a lifetime is for you to have and to hold from this day forward. But you get to decide what that love looks like.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Marriages last long because two people made a choice to work for it, fight for it, and keep it. Love for a lifetime.  Are you holding your spouse to a higher standard? Love for a lifetime is worth millions of tries. Would you bet on your marriage or the Powerball? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It's not about being perfect, because perfect does not exist. Yet, we have these fairytales that tell us otherwise. If we don't have our prince charming, or if we do and he wrongs us, then maybe it's time to move on. But love for a lifetime takes commitment. Think about it. If love was easy, everyone would be in love. But it's not! In fact, it's easier to walk away than it is to fight. And it doesn't help the "family structure" when society makes it easy to break the ties and get a divorce. Love for a lifetime requires sacrifice, grace, and commitment. Are you ready for the fight? The K.I.S.S. ~ Ready for the fight!   If you desire that love for a lifetime, there is a fight to be won. But it's not one with your spouse, but one with yourself. 1. Forgiveness - Life is not perfect; so you have to be willing to push through the failures, hurts, and disagreements, and forgive that which does not meet your expectations. 2. Sacrifice - You have to be willing to sometimes give up what you want. It's putting your personal preferences aside to serve the greater good of the relationship. 3. Grace - As much as you give grace, you, too, need to be willing to receive grace. It goes both ways. 4. Commitment - When the going gets tough, are you holding on?  This is what wraps around love.  Love for a lifetime is for you to have and to hold from this day forward. But you get to decide what that love looks like.    "Be present. Be incredible.

But remember, your children are making memories. Pardon the mess.  Are you the one hosting the holiday gatherings? Or maybe you are having a few people sleep over on the way to another family's home. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Holidays are stressful enough. Everyone is excited to see each other, but at the same time, everyone is on edge because they haven't seen each other. "Perfection can rob us of so many memories. Life is too short to inhabit the world of perfection. At some point, you need to move out and get to the heart of what matters." ~ Kristianne Wargo Family matters! Now, look at your children. Don't you think they deserve a stress-free, fun holiday season? Then, why are you getting all worked up over made beds, picked up toys, and shoes in the closet? We giggle silently, but our children are not. They are complaining loudly, and we are the ones not listening. Sometimes our children have really good points. So why not pay attention?  The K.I.S.S. ~ Pardon the mess and make memories!   Let go of the stuff that doesn't matter.  <br />- Live on the edge of messy. Do something that is going to make you a little uneasy. You don't need to have everything in perfect order. It may look great, but the feelings decades from now will not reflect the perfect order. It will be more attached to the bear you were trying to get it all perfect.  <br />- Clean with an attitude of gratitude. There are many things you can do besides cleaning. I feel that's all I do, and my house still does not showcase the way I wish. But if I take off the pressure of having everything pristine, then I can appreciate life even more. You stop the silliness of "no dust bunnies", and start laughing at the funny moments; the ones that capture your heart. <br />- Live your legacy now. Have you ever been asked what you hope people will say about you when you are gone? I don't know about you, but that makes me a little uncomfortable. No one wants to think like that. So why do you think about your legacy in a manner of when you're gone? How about your living legacy? Live the way you want to be remembered. <br /> Create your now! Life isn't about doing things your way all the time. If that were the case, you would be so bored, you would be complaining that life is too perfect. So live life outside of the box.  Pardon the mess and make memories that will last an eternity.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Just because busyness rules the day, it does not have to rule the night. Learn how to fall back to spring forward. I'm not sure where you are living, but this weekend is the end of daylight savings time. Most of us here in the U.S. gain an hour. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   It's where we fall back Saturday night into early Sunday morning.  If you go to church on Sunday, this is where everyone gets confused as to what time the service starts.  But seriously, sleep is vital to our health and well-being. If you don't get sleep, your body and mind have no way to rejuvenate, restore, and repair.  Sleep is where your mind and body get to recharge for the next day.  Don't deprive yourself of something that's great! Aim for eight! The K.I.S.S. ~ Aim for eight!   You need sleep. I need sleep. We all need sleep to thrive. Even though our clocks are manmade, sleep is natural. So you gotta put in the time to spin on a dime.  If you want to be spot on, you must get your rest! Aim for eight! <ol> <li>Embrace the obvious. Daylight savings time is ending. So there's no need to fight what you can't control. Instead, focus on what you can control -- your bedtime. Get an extra hour of sleep and indulge a little more for your health. But if that doesn't work for you, shift your bedtime by 30 minutes. You cut the time in half, and it allows you to slowly become adjusted without too much interruption.</li> <li>Stroll earlier rather than later. When you fall back, you are losing light. And light is what helps set your circadian rhythm. Plus, when cortisol levels spikes, gives you energy, and stops producing melatonin. If you're not a morning person, then become a dancing person in the morning. Put on some good tunes, and dance the morning away. It'll wake you up and set your day on the right track.</li> <li>Snack less and eat dinner earlier. In the fall and winter months, most of us like to curl up and eat cozy snacks with warm drinks. That can add up to unnecessary extra calories, and some with added sugar. The body doesn't like any of it, and will most certainly upset your sleeping patterns. So be cautious when you snack and eat dinner. With darkness coming sooner, your body will naturally begin to go into its sleep cycle. So eat a little bit earlier and snack less. Your body will love you for it. </li> </ol> Gaining an extra hour of sleep is wonderful. But be sure to pay attention to how you feel physically, mentally, and emotionally. Give yourself permission to take a nap even this weekend.  This is a great reason to start this new season.    "Train for life.

Your body will love you for it. </li> </ol> Gaining an extra hour of sleep is wonderful. But be sure to pay attention to how you feel physically, mentally, and emotionally. Give yourself permission to take a nap even this weekend.  This is a great reason to start this new season.    "Train for life.

It's just the beginning where greatness happens. Roll up your sleeves and change your mind to envision what's possible.  Being stuck is purely a mindset. You can't see a way of escape, so you hang on to what you know.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Usually, that means you are not willing to do what it takes to get to the next level.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo But these miles of greatness begin with one step, not a leap. Don't assume you have to have everything laid out. Take it one day at a time.  If you are into rushing your dreams and goals, do you think you can miss what God has in store for you? Most definitely. You have to be a willing participant to make the changes needed to get to where you want to go. "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 3:14 You know what God has laid upon your heart. You know what matters. So why play the game of pretending you can't do something for mere convenience or ease?  Anything worth having takes work. And that work starts at the beginning. If everything was easy, everyone could do everything. How boring.  No one would have gifts or talents. Everything would be status quo. So don't settle for being stuck.  Press on toward the goal. The K.I.S.S. ~ P.R.E.S.S. on toward the goal!   Philippians 3:14 says exactly that; "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." God has called you to walk in greatness. But that greatness can't happen if you give in to the stickiness of being stuck.   P.R.E.S.S. on toward the goal.  <br />- PRESERVE the vision. It's easy to mistake dreams or goals for something else that seems a little more attainable. But that's not how God works. He stretches and molds you for the greatness to come. So preserve the vision. <br />- RATIONALIZE the unpredictable. Life happens. Don't allow yourself to get entangled by what you can't do. Always ask yourself, "What this makes possible?" Then, you can take a different approach, one that's hope-filled, not ditch-driven. <br />- EXPEDITE what can be done today. You know what you need to do today. Stop the excuses and take A.I.M. -- Action Ignites Motivation. This is where you live from a cup half-full, not half-empty. Perspective is everything. <br />- SAVOR the moments. Your presence is required in order for greatness to be found. Be present in all that you do. Play hard. Work hard. Love hard. Serve hard.  <br />- SUSTAIN the hope of what's to come. You can't do this alone. That's why you need God. Don't ever forget that He wants what's best for you. Always ask for guidance, seek help from those who've gone before you, and knock on the doors, whether they are closed or open.  <br /> When your press on toward the goals, that's where greatness happens.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Roll up your sleeves and change your mind to envision what's possible.  Being stuck is purely a mindset. You can't see a way of escape, so you hang on to what you know.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Usually, that means you are not willing to do what it takes to get to the next level.  "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo But these miles of greatness begin with one step, not a leap. Don't assume you have to have everything laid out. Take it one day at a time.  If you are into rushing your dreams and goals, do you think you can miss what God has in store for you? Most definitely. You have to be a willing participant to make the changes needed to get to where you want to go. "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 3:14 You know what God has laid upon your heart. You know what matters. So why play the game of pretending you can't do something for mere convenience or ease?  Anything worth having takes work. And that work starts at the beginning. If everything was easy, everyone could do everything. How boring.  No one would have gifts or talents. Everything would be status quo. So don't settle for being stuck.  Press on toward the goal. The K.I.S.S. ~ P.R.E.S.S. on toward the goal!   Philippians 3:14 says exactly that; "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." God has called you to walk in greatness. But that greatness can't happen if you give in to the stickiness of being stuck.   P.R.E.S.S. on toward the goal.  <br />- PRESERVE the vision. It's easy to mistake dreams or goals for something else that seems a little more attainable. But that's not how God works. He stretches and molds you for the greatness to come. So preserve the vision. <br />- RATIONALIZE the unpredictable. Life happens. Don't allow yourself to get entangled by what you can't do. Always ask yourself, "What this makes possible?" Then, you can take a different approach, one that's hope-filled, not ditch-driven. <br />- EXPEDITE what can be done today. You know what you need to do today. Stop the excuses and take A.I.M. -- Action Ignites Motivation. This is where you live from a cup half-full, not half-empty. Perspective is everything. <br />- SAVOR the moments. Your presence is required in order for greatness to be found. Be present in all that you do. Play hard. Work hard. Love hard. Serve hard.  <br />- SUSTAIN the hope of what's to come. You can't do this alone. That's why you need God. Don't ever forget that He wants what's best for you. Always ask for guidance, seek help from those who've gone before you, and knock on the doors, whether they are closed or open.  <br /> When your press on toward the goals, that's where greatness happens.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Have you ever been a child? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Of course, you and I have been a child, and we are a child of God too. So that title never goes away. As a child, we like to test our limits, and we want our own way. Just look at my grandson.  I'm sure you can remember a time when you disobeyed your parents, yet lived to tell about it; but at the same time, were fearful for your life.  God has big plans for you. (Jeremiah 29:11) He says it in the Old Testament and the New Testament. He wants what's best for you. On the other hand, you want what's best for you.  It's hard to see eye-to-eye. And then you want to prove them wrong. I had an outpatient procedure that required general anesthesia, and after the procedure was completed, the doctor came in to discuss my results and the post-procedure instructions. In very bold lettering, it read, "DO NOT DRIVE ANY MOTOR VEHICLE OR OPERATE DANGEROUS EQUIPMENT FOR 24 hours following the procedure." Here were clear written instructions, and I wanted to challenge them. I should be walking in obedience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Walk in obedience!   The doctor and medical professionals know what anesthesia and all can do to you. But I want to show them otherwise. Now, I did not drive or operate any vehicle. However, I did try. But the family showed me otherwise. Why is it that we go against the grain? <ol> <li>We are sinful creatures. We want it our way.</li> <li>We think we know what's best.</li> <li>We think nothing is going to happen to us.</li> </ol> It all comes down to testing the waters. So why not let God, who goes before you, test the waters and walk in obedience with Him? Don't you think He knows better? You have got to be very cautious as to how you proceed in your every day, especially with major decisions. CHALLENGE: Are you willing to let God's reason stand true for this season? "Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit." ~ Galatians 5:25 CAUTION: Sometimes, we like to get ahead of God. You see what you want, and you go after it. That's not a bad thing unless God has a better way. "Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in obedience to him." ~ Psalm 128:1 If God tells you not to drive, don't you think He has a pretty good reason? It's just like my doctor. He wants to keep me safe. God wants what's best for you.  PRAYER for You -- "May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance." ~ 2 Thessalonians 3:5   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Trying to figure out what to do in a season where nothing works brings about an onset of rolling consequences. How do you know when to call it quits? Now, I'm sure your mind has already jumped to the conclusion that we're talking about divorce. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Surprise! That's the farthest from the truth. Yes, many people get divorced and that becomes the relief to the problems. However, if you don't address the problems within your marriage, you'll just carry it with you into the next relationship. Quitting your marriage is not always the best thing.  In my life, my husband had given up on us and made the statement, "I've fallen out of love."  I was taken aback and floored by his comment. At no point did I see this coming. He did a great job of hiding from what really was going on. Immediately, what I knew to be true was all a lie. That's a harsh reality to be confronted with. However, that tornado which could have ended all that we had created together, did not. Merely for the fact that I began the work. I began looking at my reflection. I began seeing who he saw. I began doing the hard work to make the changes needed. Now, he had work to do too. Marriage is a two-way street and requires both individuals to come together.  But I couldn't do the work for him. Regardless of what might happen, I was always going to be a mom of 5, a daughter, a sister, and a woman who loves to serve people and to love God. This chapter in my life was for me to walk. No one could do it for me. However, one thing I knew was that there was still hope for our marriage. I never lost hope. So when you look at your marriage and you begin to get frustrated and ready to throw in the towel, you have to figure out when to call it quits. And that start from the inside out! The K.I.S.S. ~ Start from the inside out?   This topic is very real. Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen called in quits, finalizing there divorce yesterday.  Now we don't know what's happened behind closed doors. But what this opens up is a safe place to begin the discussion as to what you can do.  Right? It's not about your spouse doing everything. You have junk that you need to work through. We all do. So start from the inside out. And this is where I really believe in coaching and counseling.  So let me give you a snapshot of what you can do today when you're ready to call it quits.   <br />- Understand where the problems are in your marriage. That means you ask tough questions and have to listen to tough answers. You're going to feel uncomfortable. You're going to want to push back and say otherwise. But with growth comes pruning. So you have to be willing to look at everything; the good, the bad, and the ugly. <br />- What are the stupid things you can let go of in your marriage? You may not like the toilet seat being up, but should that be a reason to get a divorce? You are keeping score. So you have to be willing to release the things that aren't pivotal in your relationship. You can't keep score. It will only bring more damage to your marriage. Now if you're wanting to have a joy jar for everything that goes right, that's a different conversation. Those are great! But scoring our of spite, you will be heading to the courthouse. <br />- Love who you see in the mirror. You have to love yourself. It's easy to act out when you don't feel good about who you see in the mirror. And we do it so naturally, it's almost scary. Be intentional about who you are becoming. <br /> There are times where divorce is appropriate. But that's not the conversation for today, and it is a very personal circumstance. But on the flip side, there is a lot you can do to heal your marriage, even making way for reconciliation.  I'm proof. My husband and I are more in love now than ever. We dedicated our time and our hearts to do the work.  It's not easy, but at least we didn't have to make an announcement of a divorce.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Trying to figure out what to do in a season where nothing works brings about an onset of rolling consequences. How do you know when to call it quits? Now, I'm sure your mind has already jumped to the conclusion that we're talking about divorce. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Surprise! That's the farthest from the truth. Yes, many people get divorced and that becomes the relief to the problems. However, if you don't address the problems within your marriage, you'll just carry it with you into the next relationship. Quitting your marriage is not always the best thing.  In my life, my husband had given up on us and made the statement, "I've fallen out of love."  I was taken aback and floored by his comment. At no point did I see this coming. He did a great job of hiding from what really was going on. Immediately, what I knew to be true was all a lie. That's a harsh reality to be confronted with. However, that tornado which could have ended all that we had created together, did not. Merely for the fact that I began the work. I began looking at my reflection. I began seeing who he saw. I began doing the hard work to make the changes needed. Now, he had work to do too. Marriage is a two-way street and requires both individuals to come together.  But I couldn't do the work for him. Regardless of what might happen, I was always going to be a mom of 5, a daughter, a sister, and a woman who loves to serve people and to love God. This chapter in my life was for me to walk. No one could do it for me. However, one thing I knew was that there was still hope for our marriage. I never lost hope. So when you look at your marriage and you begin to get frustrated and ready to throw in the towel, you have to figure out when to call it quits. And that start from the inside out! The K.I.S.S. ~ Start from the inside out?   This topic is very real. Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen called in quits, finalizing there divorce yesterday.  Now we don't know what's happened behind closed doors. But what this opens up is a safe place to begin the discussion as to what you can do.  Right? It's not about your spouse doing everything. You have junk that you need to work through. We all do. So start from the inside out. And this is where I really believe in coaching and counseling.  So let me give you a snapshot of what you can do today when you're ready to call it quits.   <br />- Understand where the problems are in your marriage. That means you ask tough questions and have to listen to tough answers. You're going to feel uncomfortable. You're going to want to push back and say otherwise. But with growth comes pruning. So you have to be willing to look at everything; the good, the bad, and the ugly. <br />- What are the stupid things you can let go of in your marriage? You may not like the toilet seat being up, but should that be a reason to get a divorce? You are keeping score. So you have to be willing to release the things that aren't pivotal in your relationship. You can't keep score. It will only bring more damage to your marriage. Now if you're wanting to have a joy jar for everything that goes right, that's a different conversation. Those are great! But scoring our of spite, you will be heading to the courthouse. <br />- Love who you see in the mirror. You have to love yourself. It's easy to act out when you don't feel good about who you see in the mirror. And we do it so naturally, it's almost scary. Be intentional about who you are becoming. <br /> There are times where divorce is appropriate. But that's not the conversation for today, and it is a very personal circumstance. But on the flip side, there is a lot you can do to heal your marriage, even...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>940</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,communication,conflict,couples,divorce,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,hope,joy,leadership,love,marriage,mindset,presence,purposedriven,relationships,transformation,wellbeing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/b50b6e40e075f14d48f06c2732746d9d.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>2842 Chaos Meets Calm</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/2842-chaos-meets-calm--54091115</link><description><![CDATA[No one enjoys the craze days with little to no organization and the hope of getting it all done.

But everyone wants to talk about what they do well. However, how can you become your best selfie if you are not willing to look at where you fall flat? Your weaknesses. Your weaknesses can be your greatest strength. When you know your limitations, there's freedom on the other side. You don't have to wonder, because you know! And when you know, there's room to excel in life. What a concept. So why hold yourself back with the excuses that you don't have what it takes? Excel beyond yourself and know your limitations. The K.I.S.S. ~ Everything has a price!   Consider your attitude. Is it bigger than your gratitude?  It's really hard to lead a joy-filled life when you've got a chip on your shoulder. But if you serve from a cup that's overflowing, you have more to give than you have to lose. Everything has a price. Success has a price. And your limitations, too, come with a price. But what if you knew that by paying the price, it would benefit you? <ol> <li>Know when to give.</li> <li>Know when to rest.</li> <li>Know when to demand.</li> <li>Know when to say no.</li> <li>Know when to go all in.</li> <li>Know when enough is enough.</li> <li>Know it's perfect to be YOU!!!</li> </ol> "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present.

Yet how do you decide what's right for your healthy lifestyle? Do you need a label to make a change? What if you could get a great deal on your health? Would you pay the price? Would you find a way to escape the cost? Or would you have to be labeled in order to make a change? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Unfortunately, labels are used for good and bad. They make one stand out for something, giving them the excuse to do what they have to do. But if that label doesn't exist and doesn't bring about the right attention, why change anything? Most people like to do something when recognition comes with the territory.  Why do you think diets are so wonderful? It's not the diet that they're after. It's the label of who you become after going on the diet. You want to be the one who lost 30 lbs. Do you need a label to make a change? Mental health needs to be talked about more often, so we get away from the stigma. However, some don't want to talk about it as often, because it will negate the label that brings benefits, so to speak. Plus, labels also confine the changes that are possible. Within diagnosing mental well-being, if we could distinguish between the intensities of the mind and body, then look at how it affects the "heart" or humanness of who we are, we might be able to make greater headway than labeling anyway.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Do you need a label to make a change?   This episode has a little different spin to it. I want you to think about why you do what you do when it comes to your health. Are you in search of becoming your best selfie? Or are you living by excuses to maintain or get a label? Or maybe you're caught in the middle. You need a label to force you into a position to make a change. Basically, it's putting on the pressure to decide what's for real. CHALLENGE: How do you show up for your health? CAUTION: Don't tell yourself lies to make it easy. Be honest and see the facts.  CELEBRATE: When you have the answer to how you respond to your health and mental well-being, then make the decision and don't fight yourself. Your well-being is very personal. And with that, comes your responsibility to care for your mind, body, and spirit. Do you need a label to make a change? Or do you just need to make a change?

If you are looking for something different, then look for the difference. Your heart finds what your eyes see.  How many times do you have that internal conversation that you wish you were doing something else? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   You might be referencing taking a different job than the one you have. Maybe it's changing the paint color on the walls of your home. Or it could be changing your morning routine. When you know something is missing, you go looking for something else. But what do you do when you keep running into the same issue? Nothing is changing. It's hard to change what you can't see.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Look for the difference!   There is beauty amongst the ashes, but you have to look for it. Making the assumption that the beauty will show up is you accepting your current situation as the status quo. Why change something that you know? Because you desire something different.  In order to get to the other side, you have to root yourself in truths. See what you know and then acknowledge what you don't know. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Appreciate your days by discovering the blessings in the messes.  It's pertinent to look for the difference. Otherwise, the change won't appear, nor will it stick.

Don't let what limits you most get between you and your greatness. Encourage your mind to make the time; the steadfast journey is long, but worthwhile.  Living life to its fullest requires you to play on the same team. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   If you want to walk, your legs have to move in the same direction to get you to walk.  If you want to eat, your jaw requires up and down motion to chew the food so it can nourish you. If you want to write a book, you have to put words together to make sentences that carry a thought all the way through.  If you want to sleep, you need to close your eyes to fall asleep. The results you search for require a team of actions, that may or may not include others, to accomplish the goal. But of course, when push comes to shove, you still must stay on your toes to keep moving forward. Time doesn't stand still and neither do goals wait. If you desire to be great, you want to play as a team. The K.I.S.S. ~ Play as a T.E.A.M.!   Whether your team includes you and your dream, or many players with a defined goal, playing as a T.E.A.M. helps to eliminate the mess and the stress. No more gaps between your time and mind. That check up from the neck up starts when you play as a T.E.A.M.! <ol> <li>TRANSCEND - Go or be beyond limits; or range of; surpass; excel. Don't hold yourself back. Get out of your own way. See the possibilities and go make it happen.</li> <li>EDIFY - Build or construct; encourage, improve, or teach (especially intellectually, morally, or spiritually); benefit; favor; persuade; convince. Keep the building process going as it moves you forward. Change your thoughts, change your mind. Encouragement goes a long way. Don't think about persuading others. Lean into what God has designed specifically for you!</li> <li>ABIDE - To bear patiently; to tolerate; to endure; to sustain; to submit to; to remain or continue in a state. Life is going to get rough more than it will be easy. You are going to have to endure. And that endurance will come from the strength of your failures. So abide. Be patient and sustain what God is doing in and through you.</li> <li>MASTER - To overcome the difficulties successfully; to become master, expert, or highly skilled. Think of this as becoming the master of your trade; fulfilling your destiny using the gifts and talents God gave you. But that means to be highly skilled, you have to work at it. Nothing happens by chance; it's a choice.</li> </ol>  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  CHALLENGE: How is your mind? Are you working against your thoughts? Or are your thoughts serving you? CAUTION: As you go through the motions, don't make assumptions. You have a choice. Choose wisely. CELEBRATE: And always make room to celebrate your ups and downs. Because what goes down eventually has to come back up. Life is an adventure. Have fun in the midst of it all.  Don't let time be another excuse to keep you from being who you are becoming.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Don't let what limits you most get between you and your greatness. Encourage your mind to make the time; the steadfast journey is long, but worthwhile.  Living life to its fullest requires you to play on the same team. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   If you want to walk, your legs have to move in the same direction to get you to walk.  If you want to eat, your jaw requires up and down motion to chew the food so it can nourish you. If you want to write a book, you have to put words together to make sentences that carry a thought all the way through.  If you want to sleep, you need to close your eyes to fall asleep. The results you search for require a team of actions, that may or may not include others, to accomplish the goal. But of course, when push comes to shove, you still must stay on your toes to keep moving forward. Time doesn't stand still and neither do goals wait. If you desire to be great, you want to play as a team. The K.I.S.S. ~ Play as a T.E.A.M.!   Whether your team includes you and your dream, or many players with a defined goal, playing as a T.E.A.M. helps to eliminate the mess and the stress. No more gaps between your time and mind. That check up from the neck up starts when you play as a T.E.A.M.! <ol> <li>TRANSCEND - Go or be beyond limits; or range of; surpass; excel. Don't hold yourself back. Get out of your own way. See the possibilities and go make it happen.</li> <li>EDIFY - Build or construct; encourage, improve, or teach (especially intellectually, morally, or spiritually); benefit; favor; persuade; convince. Keep the building process going as it moves you forward. Change your thoughts, change your mind. Encouragement goes a long way. Don't think about persuading others. Lean into what God has designed specifically for you!</li> <li>ABIDE - To bear patiently; to tolerate; to endure; to sustain; to submit to; to remain or continue in a state. Life is going to get rough more than it will be easy. You are going to have to endure. And that endurance will come from the strength of your failures. So abide. Be patient and sustain what God is doing in and through you.</li> <li>MASTER - To overcome the difficulties successfully; to become master, expert, or highly skilled. Think of this as becoming the master of your trade; fulfilling your destiny using the gifts and talents God gave you. But that means to be highly skilled, you have to work at it. Nothing happens by chance; it's a choice.</li> </ol>  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo  CHALLENGE: How is your mind? Are you working against your thoughts? Or are your thoughts serving you? CAUTION: As you go through the motions, don't make assumptions. You have a choice. Choose wisely. CELEBRATE: And always make room to celebrate your ups and downs. Because what goes down eventually has to come back up. Life is an adventure. Have fun in the midst of it all.  Don't let time be another excuse to keep you from being who you are becoming.    "Be present. Be incredible.

Finding where you fit in a relationship seems to be more work than fun. How do you empower your love for your spouse? Loving one person for a lifetime can feel daunting at times. There seem to be more downs than there are ups in the marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But that shouldn't be why you don't work on your marriage. Giving more than you receive is not easy. However, in any relationship, it is important to see who's lying next to you. How do you empower your love for your spouse? The K.I.S.S. ~ R.A.M. it!   Oftentimes, we are caught up in what we know, and we forget there are things we don't know. As seasons and reasons change, R.A.M. it! <ol> <li>RESOLVE the hurts. At some point, you have to let go of not being right, or your feelings being hurt. Marriage is not high school. But many are hanging out as if it is. Back in the day, we did stupid things. Stop being so childish. Get a backbone and resolve the hurts. </li> <li>ADAPT to the changes. In life, not only do we grow older, but we change. Some would say we evolve over time. Work to adapt to your partner’s changing needs, and improve your bond and behavior with each other every day.</li> <li>MAGNIFY what works. The two of you have to come to a point in your relationship to do what works. And when you find those sweet spots, find a way to rinse and repeat.</li> </ol> You don't control your spouse, but you do control your words and actions.  Know your ability to make a change and support your spouse with a kind name. No more childish behavior. Treat your spouse with respect and love unconditionally. Be willing to empower your love for your spouse through the words and actions you choose every day.   "Be present.

How do you empower your love for your spouse? Loving one person for a lifetime can feel daunting at times. There seem to be more downs than there are ups in the marriage. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But that shouldn't be why you don't work on your marriage. Giving more than you receive is not easy. However, in any relationship, it is important to see who's lying next to you. How do you empower your love for your spouse? The K.I.S.S. ~ R.A.M. it!   Oftentimes, we are caught up in what we know, and we forget there are things we don't know. As seasons and reasons change, R.A.M. it! <ol> <li>RESOLVE the hurts. At some point, you have to let go of not being right, or your feelings being hurt. Marriage is not high school. But many are hanging out as if it is. Back in the day, we did stupid things. Stop being so childish. Get a backbone and resolve the hurts. </li> <li>ADAPT to the changes. In life, not only do we grow older, but we change. Some would say we evolve over time. Work to adapt to your partner’s changing needs, and improve your bond and behavior with each other every day.</li> <li>MAGNIFY what works. The two of you have to come to a point in your relationship to do what works. And when you find those sweet spots, find a way to rinse and repeat.</li> </ol> You don't control your spouse, but you do control your words and actions.  Know your ability to make a change and support your spouse with a kind name. No more childish behavior. Treat your spouse with respect and love unconditionally. Be willing to empower your love for your spouse through the words and actions you choose every day.   "Be present.

It does have its place, but so does your imagination. Rediscover your imagination to reignite your everyday smile. How good do you feel when you're happy? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I can see your smile now. It takes fewer muscles to smile than it does to frown.  Take a silly frown and turn it upside down, and oops, there comes a smile! Your smile!! You deserve to smile. But that doesn't come from your circumstances. It comes from your heart. Ane when you connect your heart to your imagination, that's when you create your now. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rediscover your imagination!   Sparks fly! You can't help but be excited for what comes next. Now you may not always like it. But an adventure wouldn't be an adventure without a little unknown. Your fear can keep you on your toes, but let your smile elevate your every day. Create your now! Just like our bodies, our minds are amazing, too! We have a side that is logical with the other side creative. Combine the two, and you have dynamite! Rediscover your imagination. Don't let your environment dictate your feelings or what you do in your day. Lead with excellence. Serve with a gracious heart. Expect the unexpected. Prepare your steps in a manner that honors the plans God has for you. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Don't overthink or become overwhelmed. Let your imagination reignite your dreams for tomorrow.  You may be facing circumstances that seem unbearable or cause additional stress. Stay calm in the midst of chaos, for change is around the corner.

Whether nutrition, sleep, exercise, or supplements, what message are you sending your body? Love your body well. Right now, no one is listening or watching you. So if you made a confession to your body, what would you have to confess? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Who wants to be honest? For most of us, it takes work. But honesty is still the best policy, especially when it comes to your body. Do you think your body doesn't know when you are trying to sneak something not-so-good into it? Our bodies are AH-MAZING!!! After going to my recent yearly physical, I'm reminded of the intricacy of my body. And I'm blown away every time. However, I also know and realize that how I care for my body, shows up in my everyday performance. <ul> <li>How emotionally stable I am. If I eat the wrong foods, I might be a little unsettled with my attitude.</li> <li>How physically fit I am. I can hold my 2-year-old grandson for hours without feeling weak.</li> <li>How healthy my cells are. Very rarely do I get sick. And when I do, I recover quickly.</li> </ul> When you do well by your body, your body shows you appreciation by working properly. As I get older and wiser, I tend to think of the Tin man in The Wizard of Oz. I sit too long, I need a little oil on the joints. The more we take care of ourselves, the longer our bodies will support our lives. You can't have your cake and eat it too. At times, you must choose. Right from wrong. Don't be headstrong. Do what your body needs and set yourself up for greater health indeed. The K.I.S.S. ~ Set yourself up for greater health!   When was the last time you decided to lose weight? When was the last time you started a new fitness regimen? When was the last time you wanted to lessen the amount of sugar you take in a day? All of the changes are great. BUT...they usually come a little late.  You're older, and there is never a perfect time. So you keep trying and then putting it off. It doesn't matter if you're young or old, or anything in between, all in does not work in your busyness. So what do you do to set yourself up for greater health? <ol> <li>FOCUS FIRST -- Sounds easy to be all in from the beginning. You think you are setting yourself up for success. But in reality, busyness comes first, and everything else is last. With your health, it needs to be first. So make it easy by focusing on one thing. </li> <li>DELAY SECOND -- You have the urge to do one more thing, but you still have not established a rhythm. So take a step back. Keep your focus first. And once that's solidified, then jump in.</li> <li>JUMP THIRD -- This is where you can add something else to the mix of life. You won't have to overcompensate for too many new things. Because now, you've established a better action to take traction on your goals. That is what sticks.</li> </ol> "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: What can you start today to impact your health tomorrow (i.e., food, water, sleep, exercise, etc.)? CAUTION: Don't rush the process. Give yourself some time to gain that traction with your action. CELEBRATE: Be sure to reward yourself as you live well. Love your body well!   "Train for life. Love your journey!"     #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Whether nutrition, sleep, exercise, or supplements, what message are you sending your body? Love your body well. Right now, no one is listening or watching you. So if you made a confession to your body, what would you have to confess? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Who wants to be honest? For most of us, it takes work. But honesty is still the best policy, especially when it comes to your body. Do you think your body doesn't know when you are trying to sneak something not-so-good into it? Our bodies are AH-MAZING!!! After going to my recent yearly physical, I'm reminded of the intricacy of my body. And I'm blown away every time. However, I also know and realize that how I care for my body, shows up in my everyday performance. <ul> <li>How emotionally stable I am. If I eat the wrong foods, I might be a little unsettled with my attitude.</li> <li>How physically fit I am. I can hold my 2-year-old grandson for hours without feeling weak.</li> <li>How healthy my cells are. Very rarely do I get sick. And when I do, I recover quickly.</li> </ul> When you do well by your body, your body shows you appreciation by working properly. As I get older and wiser, I tend to think of the Tin man in The Wizard of Oz. I sit too long, I need a little oil on the joints. The more we take care of ourselves, the longer our bodies will support our lives. You can't have your cake and eat it too. At times, you must choose. Right from wrong. Don't be headstrong. Do what your body needs and set yourself up for greater health indeed. The K.I.S.S. ~ Set yourself up for greater health!   When was the last time you decided to lose weight? When was the last time you started a new fitness regimen? When was the last time you wanted to lessen the amount of sugar you take in a day? All of the changes are great. BUT...they usually come a little late.  You're older, and there is never a perfect time. So you keep trying and then putting it off. It doesn't matter if you're young or old, or anything in between, all in does not work in your busyness. So what do you do to set yourself up for greater health? <ol> <li>FOCUS FIRST -- Sounds easy to be all in from the beginning. You think you are setting yourself up for success. But in reality, busyness comes first, and everything else is last. With your health, it needs to be first. So make it easy by focusing on one thing. </li> <li>DELAY SECOND -- You have the urge to do one more thing, but you still have not established a rhythm. So take a step back. Keep your focus first. And once that's solidified, then jump in.</li> <li>JUMP THIRD -- This is where you can add something else to the mix of life. You won't have to overcompensate for too many new things. Because now, you've established a better action to take traction on your goals. That is what sticks.</li> </ol> "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: What can you start today to impact your health tomorrow (i.e., food, water, sleep, exercise, etc.)? CAUTION: Don't rush the process. Give yourself some time to gain that traction with your action. CELEBRATE: Be sure to reward yourself as you live well. Love your body well!   "Train for life.

But what you don't control are the consequences of your choice. Choose wisely, as your choice directs your next step. You desire to make the right choices for you, your family, your business, your community, and your country. All of your decisions reflect who you are becoming. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Rarely, though, do we sit and reflect upon why we are making those decisions. Now, we do anchor them in qualified facts from reputable sources. But even in our search for the real facts, there still remains the chance of lies, miss conceptions, and false representations. Your decision in life, to choose wisely, gives you confidence in your choice. That’s why you make the decision to move forward, whatever the decision. However, the consequences of your choice are still not controlled by you. Because if they were, life would be a piece of cake — oh so sweet. But it sure is NOT! No wonder you are stressed!! Your mind hurts from overthinking. Your body aches from the overwhelm. And your spirit is crushed from all the fears. There’s no way to predict the outcome of your decision.  Look at what happened with Alabama and Tennessee on Saturday. I watched it LIVE; a nail-biting moment. It literally came down to the last 2 seconds as to how the game would end.  But when my son came in, he already new what happened, who won, and then saw the replay. I carried the stress; he had none. Life is just like the end of the football game. If you can watch the highlights and know the outcome or results, you have no stress. But in the midst of real time, the consequences are unknown. You don't have any control as to where or how the ball will be thrown. You don't even know how it will be received once it is thrown. But what if the ball is held for a running play or as it was for Tennessee, an attempt for a field goal? What you choose sets the process in motion. The consequences work themselves out as the next steps are taken. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose wisely, as your choice directs your next step!   “One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!” ~ Kristianne Wargo <ol> <li>SECURE the facts. Whatever decision you are needing to make, be sure to finalize the facts.</li> <li>SEARCH beyond what is obvious. In other words, do your homework. </li> <li>SEIZE the moment. When you know that you know what you know, don't hesitate. Take A.I.M. with the knowledge that you have and move forward. </li> </ol> Remember, you can only control the decision you make. And as a result of you choosing wisely, there's no time to wait. Tennessee didn't know what would happen if they made one play. All they could do was bet on what they knew. Now the game could have ended totally differently. We could talk about all kinds of scenarios. But it doesn't matter. They made a choice to choose wisely based on what they knew and took the next step. Are you willing to do the same? Choose wisely to impact greatly. This is your time to shine.

But what you don't control are the consequences of your choice. Choose wisely, as your choice directs your next step. You desire to make the right choices for you, your family, your business, your community, and your country. All of your decisions reflect who you are becoming. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Rarely, though, do we sit and reflect upon why we are making those decisions. Now, we do anchor them in qualified facts from reputable sources. But even in our search for the real facts, there still remains the chance of lies, miss conceptions, and false representations. Your decision in life, to choose wisely, gives you confidence in your choice. That’s why you make the decision to move forward, whatever the decision. However, the consequences of your choice are still not controlled by you. Because if they were, life would be a piece of cake — oh so sweet. But it sure is NOT! No wonder you are stressed!! Your mind hurts from overthinking. Your body aches from the overwhelm. And your spirit is crushed from all the fears. There’s no way to predict the outcome of your decision.  Look at what happened with Alabama and Tennessee on Saturday. I watched it LIVE; a nail-biting moment. It literally came down to the last 2 seconds as to how the game would end.  But when my son came in, he already new what happened, who won, and then saw the replay. I carried the stress; he had none. Life is just like the end of the football game. If you can watch the highlights and know the outcome or results, you have no stress. But in the midst of real time, the consequences are unknown. You don't have any control as to where or how the ball will be thrown. You don't even know how it will be received once it is thrown. But what if the ball is held for a running play or as it was for Tennessee, an attempt for a field goal? What you choose sets the process in motion. The consequences work themselves out as the next steps are taken. The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose wisely, as your choice directs your next step!   “One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!” ~ Kristianne Wargo <ol> <li>SECURE the facts. Whatever decision you are needing to make, be sure to finalize the facts.</li> <li>SEARCH beyond what is obvious. In other words, do your homework. </li> <li>SEIZE the moment. When you know that you know what you know, don't hesitate. Take A.I.M. with the knowledge that you have and move forward. </li> </ol> Remember, you can only control the decision you make. And as a result of you choosing wisely, there's no time to wait. Tennessee didn't know what would happen if they made one play. All they could do was bet on what they knew. Now the game could have ended totally differently. We could talk about all kinds of scenarios. But it doesn't matter. They made a choice to choose wisely based on what they knew and took the next step. Are you willing to do the same? Choose wisely to impact greatly. This is your time to shine.

How is God using your fingerprint to impact the world?  What you do matters! You matter!! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   You can pretend not to acknowledge it. But if you dig down deep, you know the depth of what God has bestowed upon you. He chose you and created a unique identity for you with a fingerprint.  Yet sometimes it's easy to take for granted what you have. If you come through a season of hardship, you get on your knees daily and pray for divine intervention. But when life is going pretty well, how often do you get on your knees? When you're not in survival mode, grasping for that heavenly 911 answer, you don't feel like you have to show up and ask for help. Therefore leading you not to rely on God to do the work in your life. Instead, you are working for your own accomplishments and not that of God's heavenly-designed achievement here on earth. Now, this is not done to spite God or to cut Him out. It's come from our sinful nature; wearing that badge of honor called busyness.  We let the day get away, and so, therefore, we have nothing to say. The K.I.S.S. ~ How is God using your fingerprint?   I have been amazed at what God is doing in my life. I can't say it's an easy road, but it's a journey that is more than adventurous, with a hint of peace throughout. I can't explain it. Except...Only God! As I reflect on where God is leading me and how He's taking me on this whirlwind of a tour called life, I want to remind you not to leave God on the sidelines.  You can be having the time of your life, but don't forget God. You can be living out your most challenging time, but don't forget God. 11 "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. ~ Jeremiah 29:11-13 God desires to be a part of your every day. He wants to walk with you in the good, the bad, and the ugly. And in the midst of all of it, He wants to use your fingerprint. You are wonderfully and fearfully made, created on purpose for God's purpose. Open your eyes and be watchful of where God is leading you. For every step you take, you leave an imprint.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

And not something we want to discuss.  But today, we are setting the stage. What would your response have been if it was your sweetheart making that statement to you? You probably would have become defensive. How many times do you get a pass on your attitude? Life isn't fair, which means there are times you have to pick your battles.

What does your problem make possible? Seize the day to magnify your opportunities. What is it about problems? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Why do we get stuck on what isn't possible? Did you notice there have been early access sales as early as last week by Target, and just yesterday and the day before that for Amazon Prime members? Retailers want your dollar very badly. With the cost of everything rising, who doesn't want a sale? But is it really a sale? There's already a mark-up, but now there is a mark-down. So what's the real deal? In life, the problems are the mark-up. However, when things are going your way (like a sale), it's a mark-down. But what if you could celebrate the problems? What do your problems make possible? The K.I.S.S. ~ Magnify your opportunities!   I'm amazed how we can be so quick to see the worse in a situation. But how about the best? You get to decide what side of the bed you wake up on. You can be a crabby apple. Or you can be a happy apple. Or you can be responsible, grounded in the facts of what you can do, not in the feelings of what you can't do. Magnify your opportunities. There has been a lot going on lately in our household. If you were to look on the outside of our home, it looks beautiful with full trees, blooming flowers, and a manicured landscape.  Yet if you enter the home, you would see walls destroyed by water. Floors that imitate ocean waves. Rooms that are in disarray. But even in the midst of the mess is a blessing. Every challenge has brought a blessing. Don't let your feelings control your day.

Trust in it. Learn from it. Nourish it. Watch your life transform and be healthy." ~ Bella Bleue Sometimes the most simple answer is not the answer we want to hear. We want the results with little to no work.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But what you and I want is not necessarily what we get. At some point, reality kicks in. What didn't work is noted, and what's possible is now considered. Do you want to live a vibrant, healthy life? You've gotta stop and smell the roses. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop and smell the roses!   Busyness is a trap that holds you hostage from living your best life. But who wants to settle? You can have it all within the season that you're in. However, that translates to slowing down in order to speed up. Stop and smell the roses.  <br />- TRUST in your body. If you slow down to listen to your body, it will tell you how it's doing. Aching joints don't always mean that you did too much work. It might be a reaction to the foods you ate the previous day. <br />- LEARN from your body. As your body responds to the environment and landscape of your every day, you can maneuver what works and change what does not work. Think about tweaking, not twerking.  <br />- NOURISH your body. You are what you eat. Period. End of story. Whether you want to admit it or not, if you eat crap, your body is going to feel like crap.  <br /> You get to decide how you want to feel. You get to show up with how you want to live your every day. You get to engage in activities that support your goals short- and long-term. "Train for life. Love your journey!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Watch your life transform and be healthy." ~ Bella Bleue Sometimes the most simple answer is not the answer we want to hear. We want the results with little to no work.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But what you and I want is not necessarily what we get. At some point, reality kicks in. What didn't work is noted, and what's possible is now considered. Do you want to live a vibrant, healthy life? You've gotta stop and smell the roses. The K.I.S.S. ~ Stop and smell the roses!   Busyness is a trap that holds you hostage from living your best life. But who wants to settle? You can have it all within the season that you're in. However, that translates to slowing down in order to speed up. Stop and smell the roses.  <br />- TRUST in your body. If you slow down to listen to your body, it will tell you how it's doing. Aching joints don't always mean that you did too much work. It might be a reaction to the foods you ate the previous day. <br />- LEARN from your body. As your body responds to the environment and landscape of your every day, you can maneuver what works and change what does not work. Think about tweaking, not twerking.  <br />- NOURISH your body. You are what you eat. Period. End of story. Whether you want to admit it or not, if you eat crap, your body is going to feel like crap.  <br /> You get to decide how you want to feel. You get to show up with how you want to live your every day. You get to engage in activities that support your goals short- and long-term. "Train for life.

But beauty is discovered in the unknown. How can you combine the two, uniting your passion with your vision, soon exploding your mission? Our brains are designed to search out the calm, what is known. Why do you think we are hard-wired to our habits? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Habits help to ease the stress and relieve the conflict of the unknown. Fear dissipates, and worth accelerates. Who doesn't want to feel worthy? You (and I) are in search of feeling worthy, wanting to be loved and needed. But when that piece of the puzzle is missing, so are a lot of other things. Your passion might be on mute while your vision is somewhat alert. Yet your mission is extinguished because there is no ignition. You're stalled out. A heart to move forward, but a plan to sit still. If you want to get out of the slump you're in, you have to do something different than what you're doing now. Start something new while being true to you! The K.I.S.S. ~ Start something new while being true to you!   This means that you don't give power to what you can't do. You start something new by being true to you. <ol> <li>Express yourself creatively. You feel alive when you create. Now that doesn't mean you are a sculptor like Michelangelo. It could be that you create when you...<br /> - Cook dinner<br /> - Write a blog<br /> - Film a family reel<br /> - Take snapshots at a gathering<br /> - Decorate your home for the season<br /> - Play the piano<br /> - Dance in the kitchen<br /> - Chase your child in the park<br /> - Plan your week on your calendar<br /> Make space to create something new and different. But do it all in the spirit of YOU!!</li> <li>Renew the hunt for your passion. If you're a mom, you know what it's like to put your family first, and you last. It's the reality and the responsibility that comes with that honor. However, you don't need your passion crushed for the rest of your life. Find what's missing that awakens your passion. Maybe it's reading more or getting up early to spend time in quiet. But do so with vigor and decisive actions. Then you'll be able to renew the hunt for your passion and reignite that spark.</li> <li>Dress your heart with endurance. You are going to make mistakes. You are going to fall down and fail. There will be more days you feel shame rather than fame. So stand in the moment with confidence and endure. If your heart's in it, you will conquer.</li> </ol> In all that you do, be present, be incredible, be YOU!!! "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

How can you combine the two, uniting your passion with your vision, soon exploding your mission? Our brains are designed to search out the calm, what is known. Why do you think we are hard-wired to our habits? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Habits help to ease the stress and relieve the conflict of the unknown. Fear dissipates, and worth accelerates. Who doesn't want to feel worthy? You (and I) are in search of feeling worthy, wanting to be loved and needed. But when that piece of the puzzle is missing, so are a lot of other things. Your passion might be on mute while your vision is somewhat alert. Yet your mission is extinguished because there is no ignition. You're stalled out. A heart to move forward, but a plan to sit still. If you want to get out of the slump you're in, you have to do something different than what you're doing now. Start something new while being true to you! The K.I.S.S. ~ Start something new while being true to you!   This means that you don't give power to what you can't do. You start something new by being true to you. <ol> <li>Express yourself creatively. You feel alive when you create. Now that doesn't mean you are a sculptor like Michelangelo. It could be that you create when you...<br /> - Cook dinner<br /> - Write a blog<br /> - Film a family reel<br /> - Take snapshots at a gathering<br /> - Decorate your home for the season<br /> - Play the piano<br /> - Dance in the kitchen<br /> - Chase your child in the park<br /> - Plan your week on your calendar<br /> Make space to create something new and different. But do it all in the spirit of YOU!!</li> <li>Renew the hunt for your passion. If you're a mom, you know what it's like to put your family first, and you last. It's the reality and the responsibility that comes with that honor. However, you don't need your passion crushed for the rest of your life. Find what's missing that awakens your passion. Maybe it's reading more or getting up early to spend time in quiet. But do so with vigor and decisive actions. Then you'll be able to renew the hunt for your passion and reignite that spark.</li> <li>Dress your heart with endurance. You are going to make mistakes. You are going to fall down and fail. There will be more days you feel shame rather than fame. So stand in the moment with confidence and endure. If your heart's in it, you will conquer.</li> </ol> In all that you do, be present, be incredible, be YOU!!! "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Secondly, this marriage can still be salvaged. They can reconcile.  But just as Tom Brady has his regimen in training as one of the greatest of all-time quarterbacks, marriage needs a regimen too. In marriage, you must pursue with intention. The K.I.S.S. ~ Pursue with intention!   You can't have what you want unless you work for it. You have a dream. It just doesn't fall out of the sky.

Be cautious, though, when you hear yourself say, "I better see this." Parents love to keep their kids on track. And any time there seems to be a deviation from the plan, we quickly jump into action and set the expectations with ultimatums.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Oh no! Seriously?!? Ultimatums? You better believe it. Now, for the most part, you (and I) don't really mean it as such. But to the ears of your child, the threat is real. And please know this is not a threat to one's safety. RIght? It's simply trying to push them in the direction that they need to go and work harder. I've done it. "I better see this!" When I begin to understand the ramifications of my words, I find myself being baptized in the pool of mom guilt. How could I? How could you not? Most parents lead by what they know, not the "no" of what not to do. An ultimatum is defined as a final demand or statement of terms, the rejection of which will result in retaliation or a breakdown in relations. No parent in their right mind wants their child to feel 'less than' if they don't do what is required (per the parent's tone). But unfortunately, this is the reality of parenting. It's how our children interpret what we are saying. So if you want to get off the ultimatum train, you gotta listen to what you say. The K.I.S.S. ~ Listen to what you say!   It's easy to make assumptions as to what you are saying. You've had a long day, and all the stress at the end of the day is beginning to weigh heavy upon you.  As the situation presents itself, you quickly spout off what your child needs to do in order to get the result you want, or the result he/she wants. You can be the lion ready to pounce or the sheepish lamb hoping they hear you. But all this comes from what is heard.  If you want the impact to be more positive, and less focused on "this or the highway", you have to listen to what you say. It all comes from listening to yourself.  <br />- PRACTICE your sound-off. What do you sound like? Are you that lion who can't wait to pounce on what should be happening? Or are you quieter with more reserve that gets overlooked and dismissed? You must know what you sound like. So practice. Get in front of a mirror and look at what you see and hear what you say. You have got to be more comfortable in your own skin so there is never a hesitation as to how you are perceived by your child. Practice your sound-off. <br />- HEAR the words you are specifically using. The words you use make all the difference in the world. Words have power. Words pack a punch. Words heal and console.  <br />- REPHRASE with your child's goal, not yours. You want what's best for your child. But you also want what's best for you. In order to meld those together, you have to know what your child wants so you can promote his/her goals, not your agendas. <br /> "I better see this" doesn't have to be the boulder that takes out your relationship with your child.  Craft your message and conversations with love and kindness. You most certainly can be firm and direct. But you don't have to be a jerk just to be one. Guide your child on how they can impact the world they touch.

Practice your sound-off. <br />- HEAR the words you are specifically using. The words you use make all the difference in the world. Words have power. Words pack a punch. Words heal and console.  <br />- REPHRASE with your child's goal, not yours. You want what's best for your child. But you also want what's best for you. In order to meld those together, you have to know what your child wants so you can promote his/her goals, not your agendas. <br /> "I better see this" doesn't have to be the boulder that takes out your relationship with your child.  Craft your message and conversations with love and kindness. You most certainly can be firm and direct. But you don't have to be a jerk just to be one. Guide your child on how they can impact the world they touch.

So go and change it. But in order to change the world, your vision for what you see must change.  There has to be significant differences in hope versus the reality you experience.  Yes, you need to act in faith and know there is something better than where you are.

If you (and I) don't commit to our own dreams, how can we expect anyone else to do the same? At some point, the excuses have to fall flat.

Let go of what doesn't work, so you can reframe your shame and live a healthy lifestyle. Mr. Rogers had a picture with the following line from the book, The Little Prince; "What's essential is invisible to the eye." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   What matters you can't always see. It goes much deeper; that is the key. "What you think about, you live out." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Whatever thoughts lead your day, that is how you find your way. Whether right or wrong, you soon discover you must be strong. Life is not easy and can't be redone. But if you lean into love, all the negative can be undone." ~ Kristianne Wargo You cannot care for yourself if you keep putting yourself down.  Shame is one of those things that you don't mean to plant; it just grows and blossoms as you chant. <ul> <li>I'm not good enough.</li> <li>I've never done anything right.</li> <li>I've only failed at losing weight.</li> <li>I can't commit to a diet; I just give up.</li> <li>Life is too short to keep trying when failure is always the result.</li> </ul> This is real life. And real life hurts. But you don't have to stay married to what isn't working. You get to choose. SHAME - a painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior; a loss of respect, honor, or esteem. When you look at yourself in the mirror, your reflection is not appealing. And so that builds the wall of shame. If you want to jump the wall, you've gotta reframe your shame. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reframe your shame!   This means that you don't give power to what you can't do, but lean into the choices that make an impact on what you can do.  To change the reflection, you must reframe your shame. I want you to remove the focus on putting everyone else first and really take care of yourself. Drop the excuses that keep you from making the decisions that lead you to a healthier lifestyle. One of those things is health check-ups. This month is Breast Cancer awareness month. And in order to take care of those you love, you must take care of yourself first. I am doing just that, too. You need to make sure you get a well check-up every year. Now the tests or labs you get will depend upon your age, your family history, and personal concerns.  Some of the ones you want to consider. 1. Blood Pressure Screening  Monitor your blood pressure. This should happen every time you go to the doctor's office.  2. Cholesterol Check  Checking your cholesterol is used to assess your risk for developing heart disease or other things like a stroke. 3. Pap Smears  This is important in checking for cervical cancer. 4. Mammograms  A mammogram screens for breast cancer. 5. Bone Density Screening  If you are over a half century, have a conversation with your doctor about having a bone density screening. This is vital when it comes to monitoring for osteoporosis. 6. Blood Glucose Tests  Do you know your blood glucose levels? As you get older, your doctor may request this type of lab work so they can watch for pre-diabetes or diabetes. 7. Colon Cancer Screening  Getting a colonoscopy is very important, especially if you have a family history. Be sure to ask your physician. 8. Body Mass Index  Have hard conversations about your weight. No one wants to talk about the number on the scale. Even though it's not the only thing that determines the health of your body, it is one area of measurement.  9. Skin Examination  Watch your skin and be sure to ask your physician about any irregular moles or places on your skin. 10. Dental Checkup  Good dental health is important. Get your cleanings 2x a year. Because these tests are considered preventive, many insurance plans cover them.  Empty out all the shame. Leave it in the dumpster. Then, really look at taking care of yourself. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Train for life.

Let go of what doesn't work, so you can reframe your shame and live a healthy lifestyle. Mr. Rogers had a picture with the following line from the book, The Little Prince; "What's essential is invisible to the eye." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   What matters you can't always see. It goes much deeper; that is the key. "What you think about, you live out." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Whatever thoughts lead your day, that is how you find your way. Whether right or wrong, you soon discover you must be strong. Life is not easy and can't be redone. But if you lean into love, all the negative can be undone." ~ Kristianne Wargo You cannot care for yourself if you keep putting yourself down.  Shame is one of those things that you don't mean to plant; it just grows and blossoms as you chant. <ul> <li>I'm not good enough.</li> <li>I've never done anything right.</li> <li>I've only failed at losing weight.</li> <li>I can't commit to a diet; I just give up.</li> <li>Life is too short to keep trying when failure is always the result.</li> </ul> This is real life. And real life hurts. But you don't have to stay married to what isn't working. You get to choose. SHAME - a painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior; a loss of respect, honor, or esteem. When you look at yourself in the mirror, your reflection is not appealing. And so that builds the wall of shame. If you want to jump the wall, you've gotta reframe your shame. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reframe your shame!   This means that you don't give power to what you can't do, but lean into the choices that make an impact on what you can do.  To change the reflection, you must reframe your shame. I want you to remove the focus on putting everyone else first and really take care of yourself. Drop the excuses that keep you from making the decisions that lead you to a healthier lifestyle. One of those things is health check-ups. This month is Breast Cancer awareness month. And in order to take care of those you love, you must take care of yourself first. I am doing just that, too. You need to make sure you get a well check-up every year. Now the tests or labs you get will depend upon your age, your family history, and personal concerns.  Some of the ones you want to consider. 1. Blood Pressure Screening  Monitor your blood pressure. This should happen every time you go to the doctor's office.  2. Cholesterol Check  Checking your cholesterol is used to assess your risk for developing heart disease or other things like a stroke. 3. Pap Smears  This is important in checking for cervical cancer. 4. Mammograms  A mammogram screens for breast cancer. 5. Bone Density Screening  If you are over a half century, have a conversation with your doctor about having a bone density screening. This is vital when it comes to monitoring for osteoporosis. 6. Blood Glucose Tests  Do you know your blood glucose levels? As you get older, your doctor may request this type of lab work so they can watch for pre-diabetes or diabetes. 7. Colon Cancer Screening  Getting a colonoscopy is very important, especially if you have a family history. Be sure to ask your physician. 8. Body Mass Index  Have hard conversations about your weight. No one wants to talk about the number on the scale. Even though it's not the only thing that determines the health of your body, it is one area of measurement.  9. Skin Examination  Watch your skin and be sure to ask your physician about any irregular moles or places on your skin. 10. Dental Checkup  Good dental health is important. Get your cleanings 2x a year. Because these tests are considered preventive,...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1348</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abundance,entrepreneurs,fitness,forgiveness,gratitude,happiness,health,joy,leadership,lifestyle,mindset,moms,nutrition,presence,purposedriven,relationships,transformation,wellbeing,wellness</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/95bb2d5042ff45c76eef79e19771dc57.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>2818 Don't Let Yourself Become Weary</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/2818-don-t-let-yourself-become-weary--54091111</link><description><![CDATA[Hope is the heartbeat of the soul. However, it's the gratitude in the veins and arteries that carries you through the storms. Don't let yourself become weary of what you can't control. A rainbow is on the horizon.  The best way to live your every day is to lead with a grateful heart.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Gratitude is the sunshine in your every day, especially when there only seems to be gray skies.  Focus on the good. What you continue to search for is exactly what you will find. The deeper you dig into what you can't control, the deeper your frustration and fears become. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't let yourself become weary!   Now that doesn't mean that you ignore what is happening in your life. What it does mean is to focus on the good; see what is present, and take A.I.M. for how you choose to live. Your circumstances do not dictate your day unless you let them. The same goes for your feelings. You can let them lead your day and fall short every time. Or you can acknowledge your feelings and then choose how you will respond to the situation you find yourself in. Drown yourself in an abundance of gratitude. There you will weather the storm and see the possibilities. If you keep rehashing what isn't working, you're only going to stay right where you are. Move forward with the intention to observe the blessings God has given before you. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

One sentence can change you. It only takes three seconds. What will you say to yourself to change your life today? The sentences you use are filled with stones or seeds. You are either using them to kill your confidence or to grow your mind. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

And when you connect them into a sentence, their power is magnified.  "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit." ~ Proverbs 18:21 What was the last sentence you spoke regarding your dreams for your life? Was it positive with a confident and faith-filled declaration? Or was it negative with hesitation and an anxious tone? Say it isn't so. One sentence can change you. So how do you go from negative to more positive? The K.I.S.S. ~ Wrap your thoughts in kindness!   You need to let kindness lead the way. If you dish out crap, all you're gonna get is crap right back. Words are Seeds Words are seeds that do more than blow around. They land in our hearts and not the ground. Be careful what you plant, be careful what you say. You might have to eat what you plant one day.  <br />- Start with awareness of the contractions --- all the stones, the NOTs! Think about David and Goliath. He had a slingshot and some stones. Every time you use negative words, NOTs, or contractions, you risk being knocked out and killing that which you so desire. <br />- Choose 3 words that resonate with your heart and your dream. Connect them to ignite the passion. <br />- Write 3 sentences/questions to trigger what's possible! Consider these your hope statements. <br /> "Your kindness will reward you, but your cruelty will destroy you." ~ Proverbs 11:17 (NLT) Be kind to yourself. Be kind to your dreams. Be kind in the presence of your everyday.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

What will you say to yourself to change your life today? The sentences you use are filled with stones or seeds. You are either using them to kill your confidence or to grow your mind. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Words have power! And when you connect them into a sentence, their power is magnified.  "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit." ~ Proverbs 18:21 What was the last sentence you spoke regarding your dreams for your life? Was it positive with a confident and faith-filled declaration? Or was it negative with hesitation and an anxious tone? Say it isn't so. One sentence can change you. So how do you go from negative to more positive? The K.I.S.S. ~ Wrap your thoughts in kindness!   You need to let kindness lead the way. If you dish out crap, all you're gonna get is crap right back. Words are Seeds Words are seeds that do more than blow around. They land in our hearts and not the ground. Be careful what you plant, be careful what you say. You might have to eat what you plant one day.  <br />- Start with awareness of the contractions --- all the stones, the NOTs! Think about David and Goliath. He had a slingshot and some stones. Every time you use negative words, NOTs, or contractions, you risk being knocked out and killing that which you so desire. <br />- Choose 3 words that resonate with your heart and your dream. Connect them to ignite the passion. <br />- Write 3 sentences/questions to trigger what's possible! Consider these your hope statements. <br /> "Your kindness will reward you, but your cruelty will destroy you." ~ Proverbs 11:17 (NLT) Be kind to yourself. Be kind to your dreams. Be kind in the presence of your everyday.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Instead, turn your cheek and guard your heart. Wait to worry! So many of our minutes in the day are consumed with worry. We get caught up in what might happen. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   We cling to the unknown, hoping for answers that are buried in the rubble of fear. Little do we stop and sit with what is happening, selfishly believing we can worry our way out of trouble. Worry is defined as giving way to anxiety or unease; allows one's mind to dwell on difficulty or troubles. I don't know about you, but my mind can glide to worrying in a millisecond.  But who really wants to live their life in worry? The K.I.S.S. ~ Wait to worry!   Just as you are to wait upon the Lord, you too are to wait to worry. Because worry causes so many unnecessary symptoms.  You go to the doctor and tell them how you are feeling. They listen to your complaints and concerns, normally only giving you hope by relieving your symptoms. But wouldn't it be more productive and healing if you could find the root cause and treat it from that perspective? Of course! That's why God doesn't want you to live in the rubble of fear. Instead, He desires you to lay everything at the foot of the cross. Give it to Him.  Now yes, you can actively wait on the Lord (Psalm 27:14) and do what you can in the situation that you are in. But the hurry and scurry of your mind wandering through the fields of despair and worry only traps your hope and engulfs your heart. There you sit with no direction and little faith. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." ~ Philippians 4:6 NIV Wait to worry! God's got you! Every day in every situation.  You getting all worked up about what you can't control leads to more distress. No wonder you are a walking zombie with little hope you'll get out of this situation unmarked.  <br />- Don't worry about the scars. God covers you. <br />- Don't worry about the next steps. God opens the doors. <br />- Don't worry about the solutions. God is already working on your behalf. <br /> What you must do is wait to worry. Matthew 6:25-34 NIV 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? 28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Actively seek God every day. See the blessings amongst the rubble of fear. That's where it becomes diluted and resolved.  God's providential care covers you. It's His divine intervention for you. My prayer for you is to let God lead you so you can.... "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

But many live as if none were shared. Love with all your heart as long as you both shall live. Do you remember your wedding vows?

However, you cannot build a strong foundation from your past or on what didn't or doesn't work.  The one thing you need to sustain an incredible marriage with a strong foundation comes when you love with all your heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love with all your heart!   <ol> <li>FOCUS on the ONE (God) to bring together the two. You don't have the strength to overcome everything in your life. But God does and can help lead you if you lean in. Focus on Him. His strength with be your foundation in your time of weakness.</li> <li>FIGHT fair. Stop keeping score and keep your heart ready to pull the cord. That's the cord of unconditional love. If you are always leading to be right and the only one to win, you will not have a marriage in the end. Allow your differences to strengthen you.</li> <li>FEATURE your spouse. When you take the time to elevate your spouse and lift him/her up, you give him/her the opportunity to excel personally. And when your spouse grows with your support, the foundation in your marriage becomes stronger.</li> </ol> "What you bring to your marriage personally is magnified in your relationship as a couple." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: How can you love with all your heart better than what you do now? Keep your eyes on what you can control. CAUTION: Don't expect your spouse to make the first move when it comes to change. CELEBRATE:  You do what you can do. And then let God do the rest. Love is simple, but not easy. All we have to do is look at Jesus and how He loves us.  I don't know about you, but I can be pretty difficult to love. But God still loves me.  If you approach your marriage with the love that God has for you, your marriage will be able to put the past behind you, look to the future, and be present in your every day.

What does craving chocolate mean? Our bodies are amazing! The more I learn, the more I'm amazed! Speechless is an understatement. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But what's really astounding is how your body knows exactly what it needs.  Cravings are simply that; a message of what is missing or depleted.  However, most miss the alert, mainly because they're too busy. So what does craving chocolate mean? There are many factors it directs us to.   <br />- The need to lower stress. If you are stressed, you tend to go for chocolate which releases dopamine in the brain. <br />- The need for comfort or reassurance. Chocolate can reduce the "stress" feeling. <br /> However, there is another reason why you could be craving chocolate. A mineral depletion that is responsible for over 300 biochemical processes in the body. This mineral is essential to maintain normal muscle and nerve function, regulation of heartbeat, and normalization of blood pressure. You will find the majority of it in your bones, too. (about 60%) Which mineral could be depleted when you're craving chocolate? The K.I.S.S. ~ Magnesium!   When magnesium is low, you can feel anxious, not sleep well, and have a challenging time dealing with stress. Who is lacking magnesium? The daily recommendation for magnesium is 310 milligrams for females and 400 milligrams for males.  However, most of us average 250 milligrams. You can increase your magnesium on purpose by what you eat.  <br />- Bananas <br />- Avocados <br />- Broccoli <br />- Leafy green vegetables <br />- Almonds or almond butter <br />- chocolate, specifically dark chocolate <br /> There are 95 milligrams of magnesium in a square of dark chocolate. Now, this depletion doesn't give you the freedom to eat all the dark chocolate you want. But it's to encourage you to have your magnesium checked when you have blood work. Also, if you are having any of the above symptoms, be sure to consult with your medical provider specifically to what you should do for your health. Getting the minerals into our bodies is tough. Our soil is depleted, and yet our schedule is jam-packed.  So don't rush your days. Find a balance in what your body needs.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Train for life.

This mineral is essential to maintain normal muscle and nerve function, regulation of heartbeat, and normalization of blood pressure. You will find the majority of it in your bones, too. (about 60%) Which mineral could be depleted when you're craving chocolate? The K.I.S.S. ~ Magnesium!   When magnesium is low, you can feel anxious, not sleep well, and have a challenging time dealing with stress. Who is lacking magnesium? The daily recommendation for magnesium is 310 milligrams for females and 400 milligrams for males.  However, most of us average 250 milligrams. You can increase your magnesium on purpose by what you eat.  <br />- Bananas <br />- Avocados <br />- Broccoli <br />- Leafy green vegetables <br />- Almonds or almond butter <br />- chocolate, specifically dark chocolate <br /> There are 95 milligrams of magnesium in a square of dark chocolate. Now, this depletion doesn't give you the freedom to eat all the dark chocolate you want. But it's to encourage you to have your magnesium checked when you have blood work. Also, if you are having any of the above symptoms, be sure to consult with your medical provider specifically to what you should do for your health. Getting the minerals into our bodies is tough. Our soil is depleted, and yet our schedule is jam-packed.  So don't rush your days. Find a balance in what your body needs.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Train for life.

Mute the question marks and convincingly whisper to yourself, "I don't think, I know." How often do you find yourself leading with the phrase “I think”? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   In everyday conversation, “I think” because the leader of the pack when it comes to specifying what you believe.  However, let’s move this to your internal conversations, you speaking with yourself. When you are wondering what to do and trying to make a decision, after full analysis, the next phrase of decision starts with “I think”. Do you “think” or do you “know”. When you lead with a question mark, you lead with hesitation. Being reserved about your next step slows down your progress. It silences your momentum and produces more confusion. It’s no wonder you get stuck and confused. Saying I think is a diversion and has become a neutral position. Therefore, you don’t put yourself in a controversial stance or “know-it-all”. Who wants to be that jerk? Stating it directly has the connotation of being stuck up or egotistical. But this is in your mind and your thoughts.  You need to share your thoughts from a knowing position with yourself, not a position that makes you question your every move. The K.I.S.S. ~ Think because you know!   In order to keep yourself moving forward and doing what you need to focus on, the internal conversation needs to be from a place of confrontation. You are not trying to decide on a level playing field. The convincing can be reserved for outside conversations.  You are doing what is right for you in the moment during the season of life. “Your thoughts need to sustain your belief within yourself.” ~ Kristianne Wargo Think because you know!  <br />- CHANGE your lead statement. These are the words connecting your confidence to your actions. If you let questionable words complete your sentences, you never will have the courage to try what you already know about yourself. Take the guesswork out of whether you can do it, and lead because you know. <br />- MASTER your belief. You have to be the biggest believer in yourself. And not from an egotistical point of view. But like the carpenter who is the master of his trade and takes a jagged square piece of wood and makes it a smooth circle. You need to carve out your own belief within yourself. It doesn’t matter how many people believe in you. If you don’t believe in yourself, quitting gets easier. Master your belief. <br />- MIND your thoughts. Just as you need to have a lead statement, you also need to put a period on what matters. Express yourself with words that elevate hope, inspiration, and possibilities. Nothing is impossible. That doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy or happen quickly. But by bringing the realization that you can do it by streamlining your words to support your vision/mission, it solidifies your direction, and the momentum can continue.  <br /> Think because you know! CHALLENGE: Where do you need to alter your language? Your words need to match the outcome or results of your heart’s desire. CAUTION: Otherwise, you will find yourself hunkered down in questions, and the answers will seem further from the facts.  CELEBRATE: Keep your eyes on the direction you're headed. Remember, you have what it takes, but you still have to do what it takes to get to where you want to go. Keep your whispers inspiring and always searching for what’s possible.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Mute the question marks and convincingly whisper to yourself, "I don't think, I know." How often do you find yourself leading with the phrase “I think”? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   In everyday conversation, “I think” because the leader of the pack when it comes to specifying what you believe.  However, let’s move this to your internal conversations, you speaking with yourself. When you are wondering what to do and trying to make a decision, after full analysis, the next phrase of decision starts with “I think”. Do you “think” or do you “know”. When you lead with a question mark, you lead with hesitation. Being reserved about your next step slows down your progress. It silences your momentum and produces more confusion. It’s no wonder you get stuck and confused. Saying I think is a diversion and has become a neutral position. Therefore, you don’t put yourself in a controversial stance or “know-it-all”. Who wants to be that jerk? Stating it directly has the connotation of being stuck up or egotistical. But this is in your mind and your thoughts.  You need to share your thoughts from a knowing position with yourself, not a position that makes you question your every move. The K.I.S.S. ~ Think because you know!   In order to keep yourself moving forward and doing what you need to focus on, the internal conversation needs to be from a place of confrontation. You are not trying to decide on a level playing field. The convincing can be reserved for outside conversations.  You are doing what is right for you in the moment during the season of life. “Your thoughts need to sustain your belief within yourself.” ~ Kristianne Wargo Think because you know!  <br />- CHANGE your lead statement. These are the words connecting your confidence to your actions. If you let questionable words complete your sentences, you never will have the courage to try what you already know about yourself. Take the guesswork out of whether you can do it, and lead because you know. <br />- MASTER your belief. You have to be the biggest believer in yourself. And not from an egotistical point of view. But like the carpenter who is the master of his trade and takes a jagged square piece of wood and makes it a smooth circle. You need to carve out your own belief within yourself. It doesn’t matter how many people believe in you. If you don’t believe in yourself, quitting gets easier. Master your belief. <br />- MIND your thoughts. Just as you need to have a lead statement, you also need to put a period on what matters. Express yourself with words that elevate hope, inspiration, and possibilities. Nothing is impossible. That doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy or happen quickly. But by bringing the realization that you can do it by streamlining your words to support your vision/mission, it solidifies your direction, and the momentum can continue.  <br /> Think because you know! CHALLENGE: Where do you need to alter your language? Your words need to match the outcome or results of your heart’s desire. CAUTION: Otherwise, you will find yourself hunkered down in questions, and the answers will seem further from the facts.  CELEBRATE: Keep your eyes on the direction you're headed. Remember, you have what it takes, but you still have to do what it takes to get to where you want to go. Keep your whispers inspiring and always searching for what’s possible.  "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all." ~ 2 Corinthians 4:17 I picked up a book I haven't read in a long while. And there jumped off the page, Day 25 Daily Inspiration for the Purpose Driven Life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Can good come from trouble? What do you think? How do you act if you do think good can come from trouble? Or better yet, how do you act if you DON'T think good can come from trouble? We can rely on our own strength and act like we've got everything under control. But deep down, we are falling apart.  Have you ever thought that from where you are, God would not be able to find you or maybe has already chosen not to show up? The K.I.S.S. ~ Transformed by trouble!   Unfortunately, lots of people are sitting around, drowning their sorrows in whatever they can; drugs, food, sleep, pity parties, anger, alcohol, shopping, gambling, and even their own kiddos.  Why is it that we lead our every day acting like God won't show up in every way? That's such a lie. In fact, it's quite the opposite. Transformed by trouble. You know that trouble you're playing with doesn't have to be a distraction to the wrong side - Satan.  God meets you right where you are. But do you (and I) allow Him to? Most of us are quick to turn off God when the results aren't coming as we expect. So instead of falling on our knees, we end up throwing up our hands in disgust.  "God will not do what He's given you the right to choose." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: You get to decide if God's got you. That means if you want what God has planned for your life, you have to be willing to participate.  CAUTION: But that usually means tearing down your walls, sitting in the between (that space where you don't know what's going to happen), and then openly accepting the trouble that brings transformation. CELEBRATE: God's got you! When I find myself surrounded with more questions than answers, I know the answer is not in what I can do, but in what God is doing in the gap. Be transformed by trouble.

Marriage can be disheartening when your expectations are crushed. Don't let what you think wreck what you have. Expectations are great when it's tangible goals like graduating with a degree or learning a specific trade. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But when it comes to relationships, especially marriage, expectations can destroy what you've built over time. Go back in the good ole days. No stress, only wrapped in love. Yet that's not real life.  So don't get caught up in your expectations.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Open yourself up to love!   And it's not any love. It's the LOVE that drew you to your spouse. It's the LOVE that gives you tingles just because.  Whatever you look for, you will find. So be sure you're looking for the right stuff.  <br />- Be PRESENT in your marriage. Don't shoot for the stars. Look at where you are. Be present in every moment. Don't rush to get always from point A to point B. Sometimes it's good to hang out where you are and be grateful for what you have. <br />- Be GRATEFUL for your marriage. It's easy to carry a chip on your shoulder when you think your spouse isn't doing something right. See your spouse for his/her strengths. And be gracious with his/her weaknesses. <br />- Be VULNERABLE with your spouse. This is where you don't shut out your spouse. Instead, you open yourself up for love and to be loved. <br /> CHALLENGE: Where in your marriage do you need to focus? CAUTION: And don't think you've got it all put together, because that's when you know what hits the fan. CELEBRATE: Take one step at a time. Love is a beautiful gift. But loves needs to be tended to as well. Treat each other with respect letting go of what you expect so there will be no wreck. Make your marriage count every day!

Marriage can be disheartening when your expectations are crushed. Don't let what you think wreck what you have. Expectations are great when it's tangible goals like graduating with a degree or learning a specific trade. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But when it comes to relationships, especially marriage, expectations can destroy what you've built over time. Go back in the good ole days. No stress, only wrapped in love. Yet that's not real life.  So don't get caught up in your expectations.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Open yourself up to love!   And it's not any love. It's the LOVE that drew you to your spouse. It's the LOVE that gives you tingles just because.  Whatever you look for, you will find. So be sure you're looking for the right stuff.  <br />- Be PRESENT in your marriage. Don't shoot for the stars. Look at where you are. Be present in every moment. Don't rush to get always from point A to point B. Sometimes it's good to hang out where you are and be grateful for what you have. <br />- Be GRATEFUL for your marriage. It's easy to carry a chip on your shoulder when you think your spouse isn't doing something right. See your spouse for his/her strengths. And be gracious with his/her weaknesses. <br />- Be VULNERABLE with your spouse. This is where you don't shut out your spouse. Instead, you open yourself up for love and to be loved. <br /> CHALLENGE: Where in your marriage do you need to focus? CAUTION: And don't think you've got it all put together, because that's when you know what hits the fan. CELEBRATE: Take one step at a time. Love is a beautiful gift. But loves needs to be tended to as well. Treat each other with respect letting go of what you expect so there will be no wreck. Make your marriage count every day!

Many parents think that it's all about the words. There's power in the words. But there is something that hits to the core faster and that's your actions.

"I'm watching you, Wazowski, always watching you." Our children do just that. They are always watching.  My grandson loves to hang out with Grandma. When he was about 15-16 months, drinking his bottle was an on-demand service. One day out of the blue, he really wasn't interested in drinking and needed to. So what did this Grandma do? Made it a game. I picked up my water bottle and said, "Cheers!", clicking his bottle to mine. Then, I took a drink with the "ahhh" at the end. He looked at me and went about playing. But no longer than a few minutes later, he picks up his bottle off the table and comes over to me, and says, "Cheers!" We both take a drink with the "ahhhh" echoing through the house. Always watching you! Set the precedent. Do what you teach. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what you teach!   Has your week gotten in the way of doing what you know you need to do? For most of us, this is so true! So much to do without the energy to do what matters. Instead of focusing on the NOTs, focus on the GOTs. You got this! Do what you teach! <ol> <li>GROUND the values that build the foundation. This is so important. Think about manners, kindness, family traditions, and beliefs. You are the first line of defense for your child. So ground those values that build the foundation.</li> <li>OBEY your own rules. You must mirror the rules you set. You have to be the best reflection of what your child imitates.</li> <li>Train for life. What you do is who you become. You are a reflection of your actions. Your actions are your choices.</li> </ol> So choose wisely. "Follow through with what you want to see. That's where your child will be. The actions of choice lead you to rejoice. Leave the NOTs because of the GOTs. Do what you teach!" ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: What do you want to teach your child?

You can be in the ditch and still not be able to get yourself up and moving. Instead of focusing on what you can't do, what you won't do, or what you shouldn't do, focus on serving someone else. Take time to see the person right in front of you. When you're walking into a restaurant, hold the door for the family leaving.

You can be in the ditch and still not be able to get yourself up and moving. Instead of focusing on what you can't do, what you won't do, or what you shouldn't do, focus on serving someone else. Take time to see the person right in front of you. When you're walking into a restaurant, hold the door for the family leaving. When you're accepting the food you ordered from DoorDash, look at the one who is delivering it and give them a compliment along with a generous tip. This is how you turn a life around. The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn a life around!   It starts with serving others which in turn benefits you, too. <ul> <li>Think how that makes you feel.</li> <li>Think how that stirs the pot of hope when it seems like no one else cares.</li> <li>Think how doing something so simple opens the door of possibilities.</li> </ul> We have gotta start getting out of our own way. <ol> <li>Live with acts of kindness, not complaints.</li> <li>Shout encouraging words, not 4-letter ones.</li> <li>Listen to the story of a stranger.</li> </ol> "As you make time for others, you begin to see yourself.

Dr. Jay Winner says, "If you want a relaxed body, you can do it by relaxing your mind. If you want a relaxed mind, relax your body." Stress can contribute to many medical problems, including heart disease, obesity, and headaches, not to mention the toll it takes on your emotional well-being. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But why don't we slow down in order to speed up? Busyness still seems to be a badge of honor. And when feeling accomplished becomes the exclamation point of success, there lies a danger that repeats itself. That repetition can lead to further damaging your health and well-being.  What if you could....  <br />- Be a better listener for your family, and in your personal and professional life? <br />- Be happier and more content? <br />- Handle challenges differently, giving you permission to still be in control? <br />- Be successful without the assumption that busyness is the answer? <br /> How would that change your life? When stress is prolonged over a period of time without the resolution of calm, it can induce physical and emotional challenges. Your body is positioned in the "fight or flight" response, accelerating your epinephrine and increasing cortisol, which compromises your immune system. It doesn't work as well. Think back to the last time you were sick. Usually, you can connect the dots that stress was present. There are many health conditions that are linked to stress.  <br />- Heart disease <br />- IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) <br />- High blood pressure <br />- Migraine &amp; Tension headaches <br />- Esophageal reflux <br />- Psoriasis <br />- Fibromyalgia <br />- Obesity <br />- Acne <br />- Depression <br />- Blood sugar control in Diabetes <br />- Hypertension <br />- Eczema <br />- Infertility <br />- Premature aging <br /> And there's more. But you get the point that stress contributes in all areas of your health, or lack there of.  So what if you could live a better life without the added stress or at least learning how to bring calm in your life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Induce C.A.L.M. in your life!   Calm comes in all shapes and sizes, and is specific to you. Some people can manage stress better than others. But don't look side to side. Comparison is a stress factor, too. However, there is some stress that can be good. It all results in finding the balance for your life.  <br />- CLAIM your day. You do this when you create a routine of rest. Sleep is so important. Rest is so important. Just sitting down to catch your breath and see what's around you. Don't be tempted to scroll, because that can rush your internal comparison clock. The idea is not to speed up. You want to slow down in order to speed up. <br />- ACCELERATE your control. This comes from abdominal breathing, also known as diaphragmatic breathing.  This stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system which allows you to relax. Pay close attention to each breath. Connecting your mind <br />- LEAD with joy. So limit your YES. You don't have to be the hero for everyone. Balance what you do <br />- MAGNIFY your influence. It's all about how to mind your thoughts. Patiently live in the moment. See what is there to see. Feel what is there to feel. Hear what is there to hear. Taste what is there to taste. Smell what is there to smell. Focus on the moment. Don't lead your moments with your to-do list. Hone in on the one. <br /> "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Train for life.

Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Endurance is sustained through strength gained by you being stretched. Nothing comes easy. Everything takes work. You get to decide how you want to work. You can assume the position of ease. But where will that get you?  It might still lead you to your dreams, yet at what cost? The K.I.S.S. ~ Impact for a lifetime!   I don't know what is getting in your way. But I want you to consider what it would feel like to be who you are becoming. Imagine that your dream is a reality today. <ol> <li>How would you feel? </li> <li>What would your morning look like?</li> <li>Who would you be impacting? </li> </ol> It's SOOO easy to get caught up in all the rigmaroles. The responsibilities that tend to put a halt on our dreams.  But today, remember you are in a dream reality.  Answer those three questions... <ol> <li>How would you feel? </li> <li>What would your morning look like?</li> <li>Who would you be impacting? </li> </ol> You need to associate yourself in this dream reality with the realization that nothing is impossible. If you believe it, you can achieve it. But that belief torch has got to be as big, if not bigger, than the Olympic Cauldron. It's not about faking it 'til you make it. It's truly about your vision and mission being lived out in your every day. You don't have to be perfect, but your actions can make a perfect moment.  "Don't chase the sunset when you first need to see the sunrise. Master today to impact tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Today, make the best plans and adjust as you grow. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.  How many of us dream about doing something great? Millions. But how many make plans accordingly to do something great? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Entrepreneurs tend to be the ones who dream and then make plans to move forward. There are about 31 million entrepreneurs in the U.S., which is approximately 16% of the adult workforce. Yet, there are some men and women that take a more traditional approach because of what they want to do (i.e., attorney, physician, FedEx pilot, engineer, therapist, pharmacist, etc.). It's a specific pathway to getting licensed or boarded. So you really don't have an option.  But there still is a dream and plans that must be made. So what is your dream? On this beautiful day, I want you to reflect upon your desires for your life. What do you want to be when you grow up? Who are you becoming?  And then, have you ever made plans? Serious plans? I know a woman who is going back to get her degree after retiring from her first career. It's never too late! However, with any great plan, there must be a great escape. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your great escape!   Listen closely -- I'm not telling you to throw in the towel and quit. H - E - double hockey sticks NO!!! Remember, though, it's great to make plans, but even the best-laid plans need to be adjusted as you grow. That's why you create a great escape. <ol> <li>DEFINE what you want in your life. This is where you start dreaming and continuing the dream. Many people put their dreams on hold, and there's nothing wrong with that. However, if you want something more than where you are, you have to dream, which is defining what you want in your life.</li> <li>ADJUST as you grow. Not every plan goes as planned. So you have to make plans to adjust, especially in the season of where you are. This is where flexibility and adaptability come into play. There's always an adventure in life when it comes to your dreams. Don't be afraid; just plan to make </li> <li>Take A.I.M. Action ignites motivation. With any great plan comes the great escape, which means you have to put it into action. That action creates the momentum to keep the ball rolling. It's much easier to direct a moving vehicle rather than one that is parked and doing nothing.</li> </ol> Create your great escape. CHALLENGE: What part of your dream needs your attention? Be specific about what you're considering. Then, hone in on what matters in this season. CAUTION: But don't be too quick to quit either. Sometimes when you think a change needs to be made, we are quick to throw the baby out with the bath water. "Don't quit just because it's easy. Quit because it's right!" ~ Kristianne Wargo CELEBRATE: Always look at where you came from to where you are now. This is a perspective that will serve you well in the distant future.

Yet, there are some men and women that take a more traditional approach because of what they want to do (i.e., attorney, physician, FedEx pilot, engineer, therapist, pharmacist, etc.). It's a specific pathway to getting licensed or boarded. So you really don't have an option.  But there still is a dream and plans that must be made. So what is your dream? On this beautiful day, I want you to reflect upon your desires for your life. What do you want to be when you grow up? Who are you becoming?  And then, have you ever made plans? Serious plans? I know a woman who is going back to get her degree after retiring from her first career. It's never too late! However, with any great plan, there must be a great escape. The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your great escape!   Listen closely -- I'm not telling you to throw in the towel and quit. H - E - double hockey sticks NO!!! Remember, though, it's great to make plans, but even the best-laid plans need to be adjusted as you grow. That's why you create a great escape. <ol> <li>DEFINE what you want in your life. This is where you start dreaming and continuing the dream. Many people put their dreams on hold, and there's nothing wrong with that. However, if you want something more than where you are, you have to dream, which is defining what you want in your life.</li> <li>ADJUST as you grow. Not every plan goes as planned. So you have to make plans to adjust, especially in the season of where you are. This is where flexibility and adaptability come into play. There's always an adventure in life when it comes to your dreams. Don't be afraid; just plan to make </li> <li>Take A.I.M. Action ignites motivation. With any great plan comes the great escape, which means you have to put it into action. That action creates the momentum to keep the ball rolling. It's much easier to direct a moving vehicle rather than one that is parked and doing nothing.</li> </ol> Create your great escape. CHALLENGE: What part of your dream needs your attention? Be specific about what you're considering. Then, hone in on what matters in this season. CAUTION: But don't be too quick to quit either. Sometimes when you think a change needs to be made, we are quick to throw the baby out with the bath water. "Don't quit just because it's easy. Quit because it's right!" ~ Kristianne Wargo CELEBRATE: Always look at where you came from to where you are now. This is a perspective that will serve you well in the distant future.

The little things you do in love matter. Don't hide from your spouse what is yours to share. These past few days have been filled with moments of hope and sadness. Queen Elizabeth II leaving her earthly home to claim her heavenly one after 70 years as queen, and 96 years of wisdom.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

But instead of the what, how about the who? “You are seen,” is a fundamental thirst with our kids, their fountain for living. We can sit it here and complain all we want about what we don't like with the world right now. We can debate the reasons our upcoming generations are struggling. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I want our time together to be productive. So I want you and I to look at it through the eyes of a child. Every child what's to be seen (and heard, too).  And unfortunately, that's not the case.  However, being seen is a major pain point for most kids.  Take a look at social media. Why do you think our kids want to be on social media? <ul> <li>Facebook</li> <li>Instagram</li> <li>TikTok</li> <li>SnapChat</li> <li>YouTube</li> </ul> They don't care about being discovered. They want to be SEEN! So why not do what most can't and make something go viral? It's then I'll be noticed. It's then that I'll finally be seen. Everyone gets a trophy, yet no one still feels like they are seen. How sad is it that our children have to go out and do something on social media to feel seen? Wouldn't it be nice to give our children a safe place to be seen? The K.I.S.S. ~ S.E.E. your child!   You are seen; a comfort, desire, a thirst. <ol> <li>S - STABILIZE your child's environment. Make what you do together special, even dinners. See them right in front of you. Have you ever watched a child try to get his mom's attention? They come from all different angles and even are specific about their actions to get attention from mom. Don't make your child search for your attention. Stabilize your child's environment.</li> <li>E - EXPERIENCE your child. You and I have to get out of our own way and see our kiddos. What you do is important. However, seeing your child is more important. When I went from driving my son to school to him driving by himself, I wasn't concerned about his capabilities. I now had to figure out how I was going to get the scoop of the day. That's when we talked. That's when we had our time, no interruptions. That's when he would tell me everything. Now, I had to find another way. And if I'm honest, I miss those times so much. </li> <li>E - EMBRACE your child. Hugs are great. But here is where you show up as a mom with no judgment, only unconditional love! See your child from their reflection. Understand their heart. </li> </ol> You are seen, my child! CHALLENGE: Where can you see your child more often? CAUTION: Even us great moms can do better. So look at your day with a different eye. That will keep your focus fresh. CELEBRATE: Your child deserves to be celebrated, not on social media but by YOU! Make that go viral and you will change your relationship! You are seen!

Restore your mind, body, and spirit through rest, recovery, and reflection. Design to align. When was the last time you moderated your day? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Yes, where you sit back and analyze why you do what you do? Probably not anytime recently. But what if you could impact your every day by how you moderate your day? The K.I.S.S. ~ Design to align!   It seems that society spoon-feeds us stress and pounds into our minds that the grind is our best find. Stress does more to our mind, body, and spirit than we give credit to. But at the same time, stress is a part of your every day. The management of it is where you can do better. Design to align. I am one who enjoys watching patterns and learning from people why they do what they do. And these past few days have given us a glimpse into how Queen Elizabeth II lived her life. She was a woman dedicated to tradition, but an understanding of progression. And so, as I've viewed some of the tributes to her life, I was reminded how crucial it is for you and me to know how to move forward with intentionality. Yet at the same time not lose oneself in the practice to progress. Design to align. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Probably not anytime recently. But what if you could impact your every day by how you moderate your day? The K.I.S.S. ~ Design to align!   It seems that society spoon-feeds us stress and pounds into our minds that the grind is our best find. Stress does more to our mind, body, and spirit than we give credit to. But at the same time, stress is a part of your every day. The management of it is where you can do better. Design to align. I am one who enjoys watching patterns and learning from people why they do what they do. And these past few days have given us a glimpse into how Queen Elizabeth II lived her life. She was a woman dedicated to tradition, but an understanding of progression. And so, as I've viewed some of the tributes to her life, I was reminded how crucial it is for you and me to know how to move forward with intentionality. Yet at the same time not lose oneself in the practice to progress. Design to align. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Life isn't worth trying if you're not good enough. Success comes into focus when you get close to failure. Success is around the corner with the more "tries" you have in your life. So start trying and be good enough. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   But all too often, we sit back and wonder why we can't take the easy road. You've paid your dues (in your opinion), and now you want to reap the rewards.  Yet, life is writing a different chapter, so you think. Why can't you get what you want when you want it? For obvious reasons. Right?  So, instead of fumbling through life trying to place the blame on others, what if you were to take responsibility for your own results? What if you were to see greatness within yourself even when you fail? Do you think that would impact your results? Your fears that stimulate your insecurities have to fall faster, or your failure will be greater.  Choose to get into the game of life.  Learn from the B.U.R.N.! The K.I.S.S. ~ Learn from the B.U.R.N.!   Mistakes are going to happen. You aren't going to get everything right. Life happens. But you don't have to get stuck thinking that you are less than or not good enough. Your insecurities do not have to rule your life. Your fears can be extinguished so long as you keep moving forward. That means you have to take A.I.M. for what matters in your life.  Be willing to fail or succeed in all actions, because each will lead you closer to what you're going after (dreams, goals, etc.). Let's ready yourself to learn from the B.U.R.N.! <ol> <li>B - Be BRAVE enough to be bad at something new. You can't learn from the burn if you don't fail. Success comes with failures. Instead of talking yourself out of something, try talking yourself into something. This is where you have to be brave enough to be bad at something new. The adventure awaits. </li> <li>U - UTILIZE your strengths and weaknesses. Don't be one who tolerates the status quo or mediocrity. Stir the pot within yourself. "Gauge what's possible by doing the impossible." ~ Kristianne Wargo</li> <li>R - REFINE your actions and words to create your desired outcomes. You're already in motion to create a commotion. So all you need to do is make some minor shifts. As Dan Miller says, "Everything is an experiment." As with any experiment, you make tweaks along the way. This is how you refine your actions and words to create your desired outcomes.</li> <li>N - NAVIGATE the process by taking the next step.  You can sit back and make all the excuses you want. Or accept the challenge to do more; to reach for those goals, to soar higher.</li> </ol> "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo This is a beautiful journey you're on. And the only way you control the outcome is by controlling your mind, body, and spirit. It's YOU!!! You have got to get out of your own way. Do more than you complain. Do more than you compare. Do more so you can soar. Create your now! CHALLENGE: Where are your insecurities slowing you down? Where are they holding you back? CAUTION: Don't be so quick to count yourself out. Choose wisely. Walk with the wise to become wise. (Proverbs 13:20) Who are you hanging out with? What are you reading? CELEBRATE: Please don't disregard the little wins. The little things matter.  This week, look at where you are, honestly. Be realistic about the season you're in. Set your personal expectations that will enhance your goals, not encourage your fouls. You are created on purpose for a purpose. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

You've paid your dues (in your opinion), and now you want to reap the rewards.  Yet, life is writing a different chapter, so you think. Why can't you get what you want when you want it? For obvious reasons. Right?  So, instead of fumbling through life trying to place the blame on others, what if you were to take responsibility for your own results? What if you were to see greatness within yourself even when you fail? Do you think that would impact your results? Your fears that stimulate your insecurities have to fall faster, or your failure will be greater.  Choose to get into the game of life.  Learn from the B.U.R.N.! The K.I.S.S. ~ Learn from the B.U.R.N.!   Mistakes are going to happen. You aren't going to get everything right. Life happens. But you don't have to get stuck thinking that you are less than or not good enough. Your insecurities do not have to rule your life. Your fears can be extinguished so long as you keep moving forward. That means you have to take A.I.M. for what matters in your life.  Be willing to fail or succeed in all actions, because each will lead you closer to what you're going after (dreams, goals, etc.). Let's ready yourself to learn from the B.U.R.N.! <ol> <li>B - Be BRAVE enough to be bad at something new. You can't learn from the burn if you don't fail. Success comes with failures. Instead of talking yourself out of something, try talking yourself into something. This is where you have to be brave enough to be bad at something new. The adventure awaits. </li> <li>U - UTILIZE your strengths and weaknesses. Don't be one who tolerates the status quo or mediocrity. Stir the pot within yourself. "Gauge what's possible by doing the impossible." ~ Kristianne Wargo</li> <li>R - REFINE your actions and words to create your desired outcomes. You're already in motion to create a commotion. So all you need to do is make some minor shifts. As Dan Miller says, "Everything is an experiment." As with any experiment, you make tweaks along the way. This is how you refine your actions and words to create your desired outcomes.</li> <li>N - NAVIGATE the process by taking the next step.  You can sit back and make all the excuses you want. Or accept the challenge to do more; to reach for those goals, to soar higher.</li> </ol> "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo This is a beautiful journey you're on. And the only way you control the outcome is by controlling your mind, body, and spirit. It's YOU!!! You have got to get out of your own way. Do more than you complain. Do more than you compare. Do more so you can soar. Create your now! CHALLENGE: Where are your insecurities slowing you down? Where are they holding you back? CAUTION: Don't be so quick to count yourself out. Choose wisely. Walk with the wise to become wise. (Proverbs 13:20) Who are you hanging out with? What are you reading? CELEBRATE: Please don't disregard the little wins. The little things matter.  This week, look at where you are, honestly. Be realistic about the season you're in. Set your personal expectations that will enhance your goals, not encourage your fouls. You are created on purpose for a purpose. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

You can't do what God created you to do if you try to live a life of perfection. It's a goal and lifestyle that can never be obtained. Now, you can increase your knowledge, efficiency, and your expertise. But that won't lead you to perfection.  You'll just get frustrated with yourself and the thoughts of still being where you are today will haunt you. Fear will creep in. Doubt will harden your heart.

Feel your heart. Think of how your hands move, how your legs feel, and the rhythm of your heartbeats. What do you need to give to God today? What can you release yourself from because you've been living in this state of perfection? Now, that doesn't mean throwing caution to the wind and doing whatever just because. God gave us a mind, so He desires for us to use it. However, God wants you to be REAL with Him. Draw Him close to you. Share your struggles and celebrations. Ask for help where you need it.  Don't be ashamed of yourself. God isn't. God loves you just the way you are. Yes, He wants what's best for you and sets forth parameters in how you're to live your life. But never does He leave or forsake you. During your most challenging times, God is near.

The power of togetherness anchors the actions that express love. Come together. On September 8, 2022, our friends across the pond lost their dear Queen, who was Britain's longest-reigning monarch, for seventy years. Yet she never looked at her position as reigning, but as serving. Her devotion to service was impeccable, and a model to us all.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   In the Service of Prayer and Reflection for Queen Elizabeth II at St. Paul's Cathedral, the new Prime Minister, Liz Truss, reflected on what mattered to the Queen.  In her reading, she said that the Queen believed that there was power in togetherness. Nowadays, there appears to be more disconnect and separation than togetherness.  Everyone wants it their way or no way. When you think about it, in marriage, there is power in togetherness. I bet you've heard the stories of couples that only refer to their disagreements and arguments. Couples focus more on the negative than the positive. It's the rumbles under the breath that ring loudly.  <br />- You haven't done this for me yet. So why do I have to do anything for you today? <br />- You don't care about anyone except yourself. <br />- Why can't you get up and do it? <br /> Selfishness in any relationship is bad, especially in a marriage. You can't overcome reactions if you don't control your actions. Put your actions where your love is. The K.I.S.S. ~ Put your actions where your love is!   In honor of Queen Elizabeth, her life, and her legacy, let's take a page out of her book. She was one who always led with compassion. Service was her focus. She put her actions where her love was.  <br />- SEE life together. If all you focus on is being apart and doing only what you want, that's going to create a wedge in your marriage. See what your spouse needs from you. And if you don't know, ASK!  <br />- ASK how you can serve. One of my favorite questions is, "What can I do for you today?" You don't have to know everything. So ask! Get direction from your spouse as to how they need you to show up.  <br />- KNOCK on what matters. Draw closer to each other by being together.  <br /> The Queen was beloved because she chose to be a part of those she loved; her family, her country, her missions. Life wasn't about her being Queen, but how she could serve those she loved. The power of togetherness. CHALLENGE: So where in your relationship can you show up as the Queen did? CAUTION: And don't pretend that you got it all together. Because we all fall apart. Just own the mess and move forward.  CELEBRATE: Life is oh so precious! Make each other better because you are together. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

The power of togetherness anchors the actions that express love. Come together. On September 8, 2022, our friends across the pond lost their dear Queen, who was Britain's longest-reigning monarch, for seventy years. Yet she never looked at her position as reigning, but as serving. Her devotion to service was impeccable, and a model to us all.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   In the Service of Prayer and Reflection for Queen Elizabeth II at St. Paul's Cathedral, the new Prime Minister, Liz Truss, reflected on what mattered to the Queen.  In her reading, she said that the Queen believed that there was power in togetherness. Nowadays, there appears to be more disconnect and separation than togetherness.  Everyone wants it their way or no way. When you think about it, in marriage, there is power in togetherness. I bet you've heard the stories of couples that only refer to their disagreements and arguments. Couples focus more on the negative than the positive. It's the rumbles under the breath that ring loudly.  <br />- You haven't done this for me yet. So why do I have to do anything for you today? <br />- You don't care about anyone except yourself. <br />- Why can't you get up and do it? <br /> Selfishness in any relationship is bad, especially in a marriage. You can't overcome reactions if you don't control your actions. Put your actions where your love is. The K.I.S.S. ~ Put your actions where your love is!   In honor of Queen Elizabeth, her life, and her legacy, let's take a page out of her book. She was one who always led with compassion. Service was her focus. She put her actions where her love was.  <br />- SEE life together. If all you focus on is being apart and doing only what you want, that's going to create a wedge in your marriage. See what your spouse needs from you. And if you don't know, ASK!  <br />- ASK how you can serve. One of my favorite questions is, "What can I do for you today?" You don't have to know everything. So ask! Get direction from your spouse as to how they need you to show up.  <br />- KNOCK on what matters. Draw closer to each other by being together.  <br /> The Queen was beloved because she chose to be a part of those she loved; her family, her country, her missions. Life wasn't about her being Queen, but how she could serve those she loved. The power of togetherness. CHALLENGE: So where in your relationship can you show up as the Queen did? CAUTION: And don't pretend that you got it all together. Because we all fall apart. Just own the mess and move forward.  CELEBRATE: Life is oh so precious!

But if you want to know your child and maintain your sanity, you have to be willing to always hear the yes in the no. I am not a salesperson at all. In fact, I've tried to be one and sell a few things, only to fall flat fast.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   However, when it comes to communicating with children, you have to be prepared for anything. For the most part, what you think is going to happen doesn't, but something else always will.  Even though I don't consider myself a saleperson, that's exactly what I do as a parent. I have to sell the idea to the point of the kids at least hearing me out. Sounds crazy? YES!! But oh, so true! Moms, you are responsible for the greatest sales show ever. And I must say you are underpaid. LOL :) Regardless, if you are trying to "reason" with your child, good luck! It just doesn't happen as often as we'd like. Instead, you're trying to convince them (sell them) on the idea that you know what's best for them.  And of course, you know! This is not any easy job; one we didn't sign up for but are required to handle. So get your hands a little dirty and market your ideas as if they were the children's ideas. The K.I.S.S. ~ Market your ideas as if they are the children's ideas!   Life would be so much easier if we had a manual for everything, but then life would not be an adventure.  And that's exactly how I want you to see your communication with your children; an adventure into the wild. You never know what they'll say, but you always know they shoot it straight. No filters are allowed on their part. However, that's not how it works for us. When you go to market your ideas to your children, you have to always hear the yes in the no.  <br />- FRAME IT as their idea. Whatever you want your child to understand or do, make it their idea. Use your words to solidify what you want for them, but they see it and understand it first. <br />- WRAP IT in what matters to them. Think of it as sushi for your child. Sushi isn't sushi without rice, seaweed, and fresh fish. You wouldn't get just any sushi. You get what you want. So give that to your child in a way that stimulates their mind that they're getting what matters to them. <br />- STICK IT when it counts. We can battle our kids all day long. Fighting, arguing, or complaining does not get the result you want. So be consistent and stick it when it counts. Yea -- You might have to be a little forceful in your tone of voice or your expectations of actions. But don't you want to give your child the gift of life? You gotta stick it when it counts. <br /> And I must say, when they back talk you, don't continually pick a fight. Let the rough waters calm so you can have a productive discussion and not a yelling match in the middle of the sea.  CHALLENGE: As a parent, you have to pick your battles carefully. So what is ONE thing that your child needs to understand during this season? Focus on that. Don't allow yourself to get distracted by all the other things that should fall into place, but are a mess too. CAUTION: And be very careful with your own heart. Yes! This is where you have to be secure in what you are doing as a parent. Because you're human too, and your feelings get hurt. So just know that this too shall pass. CELEBRATE: When you do win a battle, go quietly to the bathroom to celebrate your win. That might be the only private space you have left in your house as a mom or dad. Kids are great, but they take a lot of work and require consistency. Love unconditionally, knowing that you are blessing them for the long run. This is your long-term investment. Always hear the yes in the no and help them. "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristianne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

In fact, because you have breath, you have a choice to make. Do what's right! I can remember back in the day when I was trying to figure out what to name my business. I knew it was supposed to encompass all the things in life, even if I didn't speak directly about the topic. It was still all of the real life. We try to compartmentalize things that go right and wrong in order to handle emotions and decisions. Unfortunately, though, it leaves our hearts begging for something more. The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what's right!   The struggle you're experiencing today is developing the strength you'll need for tomorrow. So lock into what God has in store for you today. Create your now. Be in step with Him, so you know that your actions are for the greater good; your greatness. When you fall, just get back up quicker than the fall itself. Do what's right!

You don't need all the fancy equipment and an exorbitant amount of money to treat yourself well. Well-being starts in the mind with your actions to follow. Too many times we associate our health with the success we've had in losing weight, gaining muscle, even completing a competitive physical race (5k or marathon). Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   There always seems to be something we must achieve in order to be healthy. But what if you took all of that away? What if you removed the boundaries of society and focused solely on what your body needs? Would that move the needle for your cooperation in healthy living? Usually, the biggest hurdle to get over is the constraints laid upon you by others' opinions.  So escape the old and accept the new. The K.I.S.S. ~ Escape the old and accept the new!   Get over what hasn't been working. You don't have to live your life as everyone else does. This is YOUR life!!! Create your now -- <ul> <li>How you want to feel.</li> <li>How you want to look.</li> <li>How long you want to live.</li> <li>How you want your clothes to fit.</li> <li>How you spend your money.</li> </ul> The decision is yours and yours alone. So let's get off this whining train that you can't have the body you want.  Let's determine what you want and go for it! My recommendation to escape the old and accept the new comes with lots of E's! <ol> <li>EXERCISE to be fit, not skinny. How do you like to move your body? What is fun for you to do every day that requires intentional movement? Your fitness score is dependent on when you move and how often you move. So are you moving to be fit? Sitting on the couch isn't going to make you healthy. It's going to slow down the results you are searching for. So buckle up for a great ride and choose your movements.</li> <li>EAT to nourish your body, not to complete a diet plan. You know your body best. So choose the foods that make you feel good. If you eat something and 15-20 minutes after eating you have a reaction (good or bad), do you want to repeat that feeling? If so, keep doing what you're doing. Otherwise, change what you put in your mouth.</li> <li>EXCLUDE the haters, doubters, and unhealthy examples that once fed you. With social media and the constant bombardment of stereotypes in real-time with unrealistic expectations and filters galore, you have got to turn off the power of unsolicited comments and focus on your own reflection. When you exclude those who don't have a say in your lifestyle, then you accelerate the outcome you are searching for.</li> </ol> You are worthy! You have what it takes to make it all the way. But with anything that is worthy comes at a cost. "Choose wisely to live extraordinarily. Well-being starts in the mind." ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: Where does your well-being start today? Do you need to look at the language you are using with yourself? Are you hanging out on the excuse couch? Or maybe you have it all together, but time is the issue. Pick the ONE thing where you get stuck the most. CAUTION: Don't be too quick to reason where you are this season. That too can lead you down a rabbit hole that's hard to dig out of.  CELEBRATE: Commit to making one wise choice at a time.

And the only way to do great work is to love what you do." ~ Steve Jobs Steve Jobs continues, "If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>  What is your relationship with your work, your career, your responsibilities? Are you one who complains more than your soar? When you don't get your way, it's practical to search for a "feel-good" path that opens the door to you loading the trucks; just keeping yourself in a direction that completes the task. But unfortunately, that translation in life only leads you down a road that becomes foggy and dark really quickly. You don't know what really matters, because what did matter before does not matter now. So take this moment today to create your now.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what you believe is great work!  You've gotta change the tone of your day. Yes, you have to do things you don't like, tedious actions that really aren't that glamorous.  However, that mentality should not hold you back from looking at what you do through the eyes of greatness. You were created on purpose for a purpose. Everything that's happened in the past up until now may not always make sense.  But that doesn't mean that what you do doesn't have a purpose.  God has a vision for your life. He wants you to live out your God-size dreams in your every day. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 "But you have to show up in order for the plans He has for you to come to fruition. You have to walk the unsettled path, especially when it gets rocky. You must not hang your head in shame, but sustain your passion for His gain. It's in the journey where dreams are refined, leading to your greatness being defined." ~ Kristianne Wargo "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Do what you believe is great work. Don't settle for average. Finish each task with precision in the outcome, but patience in the journey." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo  "Be present. Be incredible.

And the only way to do great work is to love what you do." ~ Steve Jobs Steve Jobs continues, "If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>  What is your relationship with your work, your career, your responsibilities? Are you one who complains more than your soar? When you don't get your way, it's practical to search for a "feel-good" path that opens the door to you loading the trucks; just keeping yourself in a direction that completes the task. But unfortunately, that translation in life only leads you down a road that becomes foggy and dark really quickly. You don't know what really matters, because what did matter before does not matter now. So take this moment today to create your now.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what you believe is great work!  You've gotta change the tone of your day. Yes, you have to do things you don't like, tedious actions that really aren't that glamorous.  However, that mentality should not hold you back from looking at what you do through the eyes of greatness. You were created on purpose for a purpose. Everything that's happened in the past up until now may not always make sense.  But that doesn't mean that what you do doesn't have a purpose.  God has a vision for your life. He wants you to live out your God-size dreams in your every day. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 "But you have to show up in order for the plans He has for you to come to fruition. You have to walk the unsettled path, especially when it gets rocky. You must not hang your head in shame, but sustain your passion for His gain. It's in the journey where dreams are refined, leading to your greatness being defined." ~ Kristianne Wargo "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Do what you believe is great work. Don't settle for average. Finish each task with precision in the outcome, but patience in the journey." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo  "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"    #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

The kick-off to the College Football season started off with a bang, especially the Florida State versus LSU Sunday night game. Both teams have a mindset that they are going to win. But who do you think believed more last night? With only a touchdown to separate the score, Florida State fumbled the ball on the 1st yard line.  LSU did the unthinkable and took it all the way down 99 yards for a touchdown with only 1 second left in the game.  There was an official review on the next to last play that set the LSU Tigers up for a chance to tie the game. And that's exactly what they did --- assuming they made the PAT (point after the touchdown). The K.I.S.S. ~ Celebrate the bigger WHY!   How excited do you think they were with one second left, and the catch was made in the back of the endzone for a touchdown. SCORE!!!! Then, the final extra point.

Wishing you were in a different situation than you are? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>    <br />- Maybe you're facing financial constraints. <br />- Maybe your hope has been of something from this world. <br />- Maybe you've lost direction in your faith. <br />- Maybe you've hit rock bottom because of stupid decisions you've made. <br />- Maybe your relationship with your family is strained. <br />- Maybe you are facing an unexpected health crisis. <br /> As much as you think God is not present, He actually is.  The problem comes more from you and me.  We tend to push God away when we don't get what we want. We're stubborn and ridiculously demanding.  Who doesn't want their own way? But the real problem comes when we allow our doubt to overstep our faith. All of sudden, the floor is crumbling beneath you. You feel trapped and helpless.  How will you get out of this? And oh wait! God, why aren't You here? The K.I.S.S. ~ Let faith speak louder than your circumstances!   The real part of life is dealing with what life dishes out. But whatever comes your way, you mustn't let your faith be suffocated by your doubt. No matter the circumstances, you can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. (Romans 8:28) But you have to be willing to fall in order to be caught or picked back up. "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." ~ Hebrews 11:1 God's got you! Lean on Him more than you do the things of this earth. Even when the most tragic circumstances knock on your door, show up well because God's got you more! "This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it." ~ Psalm 118:24 You won't always like what life has to give, but it's whose you are that gives you life. Focus on Him, and only Him, and you will make it through.

We're stubborn and ridiculously demanding.  Who doesn't want their own way? But the real problem comes when we allow our doubt to overstep our faith.

Many times we complain about all the things that require our attention and force upon us major responsibilities. But anything worth having requires work. And with work comes pressure. If you are under pressure, you are a rising star! Think about it.  <br />- If there's no pressure, there are no expectations. So there's no need to get bent out of shape for nothing. <br />- If there are no records to set or break, there's no reward worthy of your efforts. <br />- If there is no opportunity to serve, there's no time to let your light shine. <br /> So stop looking at your overwhelm and everything that must be accomplished like you can't do it. You have gifts and talents that must be shared.

If you are under pressure, you are a rising star! Think about it.  <br />- If there's no pressure, there are no expectations. So there's no need to get bent out of shape for nothing. <br />- If there are no records to set or break, there's no reward worthy of your efforts. <br />- If there is no opportunity to serve, there's no time to let your light shine. <br /> So stop looking at your overwhelm and everything that must be accomplished like you can't do it. You have gifts and talents that must be shared. Let the complaining fade as you create your now.  "Pressure can crack an egg, but it also creates a diamond." ~ Kristianne Wargo It's time to prove to yourself what you're made of!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

The tasks are easy, yet the no's are more challenging. Where are you held back from excelling? I bet you were expecting me to ask you where you fall short.

It's how you exercise your right to choose your battles wisely.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose your battles wisely!   How you perceive things creates your reality. However, it doesn't mean that the reality your perceive is the fact. It may be true to you, but the facts say otherwise. That's where it's critical to choose your battles wisely. Theses battles come from your limitations. And these limitations are accepted and set by you. No one forces limitations on yourself. No one can control your mouth and what goes in it.  Technology is great, but not that invasive. So when you look at how you're living and where you want to be in 5 to 10 years, the battle of your limitations comes from within.  <br />- Don't play small. Go big or go home. You only have one chance to make the right choice in the moment. Whether it's fitness, the food you're going to eat -- the moment is yours to define.  <br />- Lead with expectations. This is where you decide the results you are going after. Stop chasing what you don't want, and start living how you want to. <br />- Feel before you quit. As you know, life happens. So make lemonade out of lemons. Give yourself that permission to make a choice and be okay with it in the moment. <br /> Don't lose yourself in your limitations. There is a way to balance your life, and that comes from how you don't let your limitations exceed your goals. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: What limitation do you need to adjust or nullify? CAUTION: Don't let your excuses become the fuel to keep a limitation.

Deliver on the promises to yourself, so you can advance your goals and dreams. Some might say this is selfish. I like to think of it as healthy for the mind, body, and spirit. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   There is no way you can be everything for everybody while leaving yourself in the trenches.  At some point, you have to recognize your own value and what you have to offer the world. You were created on purpose for a purpose. So why hide your purpose? Why bury your dreams? Why linger in everyone else's life only to leave yours half empty? All good questions, but what are your answers? The K.I.S.S. ~ Deliver on the promises to yourself!   I know all too well what it's like to put everyone else first. I've done it for decades. And to the degree that I don't regret it. But it is vitally important to find the balance between what you need versus tending to those in need. When you utilize your creative energy, there truly is something magical that happens within you.  <br />- It stimulates healthy neural pathway patterns. <br />- It builds your self-esteem. <br />- It decreases stress and increases endorphins. <br /> There is power in creativity. And that creativity doesn't mean just artwork or writing music. It's anything that you "create." Life is full of surprises. You can indulge in the failures or take the lessons learned and multiply them to create your now. These are dreams in the making. But if you walk around feeling bummed because you didn't get your way, or what you wanted to do is already taken (in your opinion), that gets you nowhere. Stand up with your head held high and the intentional actions to do what it takes to make your dreams come true.  That spark within you matters. Don't let the spark go out. Keep it ignited by doing something every day. It's in the one step that you can deliver on the promises to yourself. No, it won't happen overnight. But who wants viral? Seek to become a living legacy, being in motion for what matters now. So what is your deepest desire for your life? Grab onto that and take A.I.M. -- One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo God is willing to do the work with you. So don't you think it's time you deliver on your promises to yourself?   "Be present. Be incredible.

Deliver on the promises to yourself, so you can advance your goals and dreams. Some might say this is selfish. I like to think of it as healthy for the mind, body, and spirit. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   There is no way you can be everything for everybody while leaving yourself in the trenches.  At some point, you have to recognize your own value and what you have to offer the world. You were created on purpose for a purpose. So why hide your purpose? Why bury your dreams? Why linger in everyone else's life only to leave yours half empty? All good questions, but what are your answers? The K.I.S.S. ~ Deliver on the promises to yourself!   I know all too well what it's like to put everyone else first. I've done it for decades. And to the degree that I don't regret it. But it is vitally important to find the balance between what you need versus tending to those in need. When you utilize your creative energy, there truly is something magical that happens within you.  <br />- It stimulates healthy neural pathway patterns. <br />- It builds your self-esteem. <br />- It decreases stress and increases endorphins. <br /> There is power in creativity. And that creativity doesn't mean just artwork or writing music. It's anything that you "create." Life is full of surprises. You can indulge in the failures or take the lessons learned and multiply them to create your now. These are dreams in the making. But if you walk around feeling bummed because you didn't get your way, or what you wanted to do is already taken (in your opinion), that gets you nowhere. Stand up with your head held high and the intentional actions to do what it takes to make your dreams come true.  That spark within you matters. Don't let the spark go out. Keep it ignited by doing something every day. It's in the one step that you can deliver on the promises to yourself. No, it won't happen overnight. But who wants viral? Seek to become a living legacy, being in motion for what matters now. So what is your deepest desire for your life? Grab onto that and take A.I.M. -- One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! ~ Kristianne Wargo God is willing to do the work with you. So don't you think it's time you deliver on your promises to yourself?   "Be present. Be incredible.

But what if the power of mistakes could actually increase your success? Fail faster to achieve quicker. Everyone makes mistakes! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   You can attempt to deny that fact, but if you are human, then you most definitely have to answer with a resounding YES -- I make mistakes. But ownership is half the battle. You've been told by mentors, coaches, teachers, and even your parents, that nothing is perfect. And that includes you and me! However, if we're being honest, no one wants to own the mistakes that they know were made.  Because who wants to be wrong? Just think about your spouse. But that's for another episode. Even though you don't want to own your mistakes, how can you deal with them in a manner that serves your success in the making? If you want to go farther in life, you have to get comfortable with making mistakes and be willing to bounce back from your mistakes. The K.I.S.S. ~ Bounce back from your mistake!   How you package your mistakes in your mind matters. Think about that for a moment. You can choose to beat yourself up over stuff you didn't have complete control over. Or you can choose to accept the consequences that happened because of your decision.  Either way, there were mistakes.  But one way is definitely more forgiving and pushes you forward, whereas the other sets you back. So how do you bounce back from your mistake? <ol> <li>Recognize the mistake. What went wrong? </li> <li>Call out the mistake as you see it. How could you have done things differently?</li> <li>Find the humor in the mistake. As bad as it seemed in the moment, there are still giggles to be had.</li> <li>Celebrate the lesson learned. Not all mistakes are equal. But all mistakes teach a lesson. So celebrate those.</li> <li>Take A.I.M. on your next step. Time to focus on what comes next.</li> </ol> "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo CHALLENGE: What has been your favorite mistake? This gives you a chance to look back so you can move forward. CAUTION: Don't take for granted the lessons learned. Literally, learn from them. CELEBRATE: And when you get passed the shock of your mistake, always remember to celebrate. "Mistakes are blessings in disguise. Choose to see what you have learned in the absence of your knowledge." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Master today to impact tomorrow!" ~ Kristanne Wargo   "Be present. Be incredible.

Are you one who is purpose-driven and present? This is the day that the Lord has made. Stop playing not to lose. Today, I want you to get ready for a ride! It's time to take a peek at what God sees. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   College football has officially started. Crazy how I watched a game being played in Ireland (Nebraska vs. Northwestern). Strange, yet an incredible game that taught life lessons on the snaps. It was late in the 4th quarter with only 7 minutes left in the game. Northwestern was ahead by 3 points, 31 to 28. Northwestern had gained the 3-point lead and didn't want to lose it. So when they got the ball back, it was a struggle to even call it a drive, per the commentator.  They were playing not to lose.  However, Nebraska wasn't willing to do much more. Just wanted to keep the ball on the ground to avoid any interceptions. Which by the way, happened at the end with about 1:27 left in the game. The K.I.S.S. ~ Playing not to lose!   Where does that get you?  For Nebraska, they lost to Northwestern. The announcers were amazed at how the season had begun! So where does that get you? "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." ~ Genesis 1:1 Where did God play not to lose? He didn't. God knew what He wanted for His creation. So He spoke it, and it was finished. I find that we dance with the fear of not wanting to commit to what God has specifically laid on our hearts. Think about this. What if you were God? Would your first sentence in the Bible be as specific as God's? In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. (God) In the beginning, I want the land to be beautiful and the sky to... well... be adorned with clouds and look like blue water. (Me) God has taught you how to play to win every day! But just maybe, you are playing not to lose.  <br />- Hanging out where you know what to expect. <br />- Not willing to go the extra mile. <br />- Okay with losing sleep on your terms, not God's; meaning you'll party with friends, but not extend your day for God. <br /> What a disservice you are doing to yourself and to God. God's got BIG dreams for you. And some you're already familiar with. But others, you ignore for a multitude of reasons. This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. ~ Psalm 118:24 So who are you going to suit up as -- Northwestern or Nebraska? Now you don't have to like football to answer this question. However, I want you to take this seriously.  God has plans for you. But if you keep pushing your plans ahead of God's, how far do you think you'll get? Walk in step with God. Play to win with Him. Don't work against Him. God's on your side. He's given you more blessings than you can remember or count. So change your world today, and make a choice to do it God's way. In the beginning, how do you create your now?   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Stop playing not to lose. Today, I want you to get ready for a ride! It's time to take a peek at what God sees. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   College football has officially started. Crazy how I watched a game being played in Ireland (Nebraska vs. Northwestern). Strange, yet an incredible game that taught life lessons on the snaps. It was late in the 4th quarter with only 7 minutes left in the game. Northwestern was ahead by 3 points, 31 to 28. Northwestern had gained the 3-point lead and didn't want to lose it. So when they got the ball back, it was a struggle to even call it a drive, per the commentator.  They were playing not to lose.  However, Nebraska wasn't willing to do much more. Just wanted to keep the ball on the ground to avoid any interceptions. Which by the way, happened at the end with about 1:27 left in the game. The K.I.S.S. ~ Playing not to lose!   Where does that get you?  For Nebraska, they lost to Northwestern. The announcers were amazed at how the season had begun! So where does that get you? "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." ~ Genesis 1:1 Where did God play not to lose? He didn't. God knew what He wanted for His creation. So He spoke it, and it was finished. I find that we dance with the fear of not wanting to commit to what God has specifically laid on our hearts. Think about this. What if you were God? Would your first sentence in the Bible be as specific as God's? In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. (God) In the beginning, I want the land to be beautiful and the sky to... well... be adorned with clouds and look like blue water. (Me) God has taught you how to play to win every day! But just maybe, you are playing not to lose.  <br />- Hanging out where you know what to expect. <br />- Not willing to go the extra mile. <br />- Okay with losing sleep on your terms, not God's; meaning you'll party with friends, but not extend your day for God. <br /> What a disservice you are doing to yourself and to God. God's got BIG dreams for you. And some you're already familiar with. But others, you ignore for a multitude of reasons. This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. ~ Psalm 118:24 So who are you going to suit up as -- Northwestern or Nebraska? Now you don't have to like football to answer this question. However, I want you to take this seriously.  God has plans for you. But if you keep pushing your plans ahead of God's, how far do you think you'll get? Walk in step with God. Play to win with Him. Don't work against Him. God's on your side. He's given you more blessings than you can remember or count. So change your world today, and make a choice to do it God's way. In the beginning, how do you create your now?   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

There your connection will grow, and your love will endure. How bad do you really want an incredible marriage? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I believe that all relationships begin with good intentions. But as life moves forward, where new decisions and choices are made, it's easy to stray from the good intentions years prior. The selfish tendency of each partner is awakened, not because of personal attacks against each other. More so, it comes into play because of the comfort that's found in the relationship. However, that comfort can be misunderstood. Just because you like that old chair doesn't mean that it can still support you like it did the first few years after buying it. Marriage is the same way. Unless you work at it daily, what you had, in the beginning, will fade. It becomes used up and broken into. Who you couldn't live without, you now take for granted. How unfair that is to both of you and to your marriage. You deserve better, and so does your spouse. So if you want that incredible marriage, seek with diligence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Seek with diligence!   Now diligence is defined by Google as careful and persistent work or effort. So first off, are you pursuing your spouse? Because that's what seeking with diligence is all about. And not the pursuit of intimacy. Yes, that matters, but so does your spouse's mind! When you seek with diligence.... <ol> <li>Pursue with purpose. Every day needs to be a day where you learn something new about your spouse. It might be something that happened at work. A new interest. A concern or doubt. </li> <li>Savor the share. Sharing is a focused response given to your spouse. But at the same time, it's also an intimate response. Because all of a sudden, what your spouse cares about, so do you! This is an emotional exchange of love. </li> <li>Invest in the heart. You can't go wrong when you keep your actions connected to your spouse's heart. No matter what situation or circumstance arises, don't let it get in the way of your heart. Love your spouse unconditionally. Serve with a smile. And forgive faster than you remember.</li> </ol> Seek with diligence. CHALLENGE: So where can you give more effort into your marriage?  CAUTION: Be careful not to presuppose. If you don't know, ask! What can I do for you today? CELEBRATE: As you learn new things and grow together, have fun and celebrate the new knowledge, the greater connection. You are creating an inseparable bond. Seek with diligence.   "Be present.

Breaking your silence opens up the real conversation to change their world. Release today what brings freedom for tomorrow. Don't you wish that as you get older, parenting got easier? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I so do wish that was the case. But once again, life isn't easy. However, today is not about feeling down and defeated. Today, you need to become empowered to have tough conversations with your children. And that requires breaking your silence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Breaking your silence!   Your children need a safe place to fall. They need to understand that no matter the situation, you will always be there for them. So it's time to unlock the chains on your mouth and talk with your children. I'm not really sure why parents are afraid of talking with their children. There could be discussions that make you feel uncomfortable. But let me ask you this. Wouldn't you want your child to ask you the questions instead of finding them online or from a stranger? This is the reality we live in. So as the parent, you get to choose if you are going to be afraid and keep your mouth shut. OR...It's all about breaking your silence.  <br />- ASK tough questions in a calm manner. You getting worked up over something before you even know the answers will definitely tip off your child that something is up. Don't come across as panicky. Be secure in your questions, and wait for the answers. Presupposing puts everyone on edge. <br />- USE PATIENCE while listening. In simple terms, don't rush the answers.

Breaking your silence opens up the real conversation to change their world. Release today what brings freedom for tomorrow. Don't you wish that as you get older, parenting got easier? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   I so do wish that was the case. But once again, life isn't easy. However, today is not about feeling down and defeated. Today, you need to become empowered to have tough conversations with your children. And that requires breaking your silence. The K.I.S.S. ~ Breaking your silence!   Your children need a safe place to fall. They need to understand that no matter the situation, you will always be there for them. So it's time to unlock the chains on your mouth and talk with your children. I'm not really sure why parents are afraid of talking with their children. There could be discussions that make you feel uncomfortable. But let me ask you this. Wouldn't you want your child to ask you the questions instead of finding them online or from a stranger? This is the reality we live in. So as the parent, you get to choose if you are going to be afraid and keep your mouth shut. OR...It's all about breaking your silence.  <br />- ASK tough questions in a calm manner. You getting worked up over something before you even know the answers will definitely tip off your child that something is up. Don't come across as panicky. Be secure in your questions, and wait for the answers. Presupposing puts everyone on edge. <br />- USE PATIENCE while listening. In simple terms, don't rush the answers. When you have those tough conversations, keep your calendar open. Your child deserves your uninterrupted attention. Keep the timeline buried and use patience while listening. <br />- LEAD with hope. You might get caught off guard with a response to your questions. But don't react frantically. Lead with hope. And if you don't know what's going to happen, the consequences of the situation, be honest with your child and let them know you all will figure it out together. <br /> That's what family is for. Doing life together. CHALLENGE: What tough conversation have you been avoiding? CAUTION: No need to rush. Think through when you are going to bring up the topic, how you are going to approach the conversation, and where will this lead to next?  CELEBRATE: Even though you don't know the outcome, celebrate the little things.

Nothing can separate you from your God-given gifts and talents. Know whom to trust and be faithful in your comings and goings. It's very easy to get lost in the shiny objects of the world.

Where do you fit in? How can you lead when you don't know where you're going? There are days that are filled with more questions than answers. In the still of the day, you ponder if what you're doing even matters. How can you keep up this craziness and still be calm in your soul? You were never promised easy. But have no fear; know whom to trust. The K.I.S.S. ~ Know whom to trust!   God's got you always!  You may not "feel" it at times. But I promise you, He is always with you, never forsaking you. However, when you are in that moment, which feels like an eternity, and all you can do is question life and your purpose, don't dwell on what you don't know. Focus on the plans God has for you. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11 You must hold on and know whom to trust. There are many pretenders in this world. Lots of them will lead you astray and down paths that aren't appropriate for who you are. But the temptation is always there.  Why not try something out of the ordinary, expecting extraordinary? You can choose that. But I would caution you as to whom to trust. People and circumstances can convince our hearts that doing something out of the ordinary is awesome and will lead to more opportunities.  Yet, you also must remember to be faithful to what and who you believe. Even though life can throw you curve balls, God's got you. You may not understand why you are where you are, but by being faithful in your comings and goings, you will end up where God desires you to be -- on the journey of greatness. So if today is a little extra challenging, and life seems to be raining on your parade, be strong and courageous. Rest in God's arms, knowing that He's got you.

But it's never just one thing. Healthy living thrives from a strong foundation. However, most of us are too busy to concern ourselves with the foundation. We just want results. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Well, who doesn't? You want results. BUT.... You want it on your terms. That's the real hard truth. And why we need to chat today. As I was watching my plumber tear into our foundation, I was amazed at how indestructible it was. The foundation itself is over 12 inches. And it makes sense as to why it needs to be that way. This foundation is what holds our home up. It keeps all three floors upright through major storms and high winds. The pressure of water and electricity can't do any harm because the foundation is so solid and strong. If we want to be strong in our lives when it comes to our health, we must start incorporating the belief that health is built on a strong foundation. It's never just one thing. Even though, that one magic pill would be awesome. But it, too, would eventually fail. We are missing the mark as to our foundation, our healthy foundation. We need a foundation that is so indestructible that a jackhammer of a storm can't wipe you or me off the map. So let's start from the ground up! The K.I.S.S. ~ Start from the ground up!   This is not about solving your problems, but directing you towards the basics that seem to be forgotten when it comes to healthy living.  <br />- THINK outside the box (especially the processed ones). What are you feeding your body? How is your gut going to thrive if you are feeding it junk that causes it to die? This is the hard truth. But you're not getting any younger. And if you want to feel younger, you have to feed younger. You've gotta have the real food. <br />- REST is required before the weight comes off. You being the busy body that you are only sets you back. You can't do everything. And I speak from experience. Eventually, something has to give. And usually, that's your health. <br />- EDIT the way you move. No none really like exercise. If you could do anything else but exercise, don't you think you would? Of course! But your body requires movement; it's oil to the joints.  <br /> If you are honest with yourself, long-term, sustainable transformation never comes from one thing, the one change, or the one tweak. A variety of edits and changes are needed to make your foundation strong. However, it's not always massive changes. It can be a series of little things that make all the difference. CHALLENGE: So today, look at where you are, honestly. Can you live with yourself being exactly who you are for the next twenty years? CAUTION: Don't skirt the truth. Be raw and real! That's the beginning of a strong foundation. CELEBRATION: Be sure to honor ONE thing you are doing right, and you want to continue through the next 20 years. So let's dig deep!   "Train for life.

It's time to make peace, not with your life, but with God's plans.  Oh, how we can become consumed by the doings of the world. The distractions and detours can leave us feeling empty especially as the fear of the unknowns creeps into our minds. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Your circumstances and situations can rock your world for better or for worse. If you are not grounded in God's word and draw near to Him, it's tempting to become unglued. The unraveling of your days is just beginning. So instead of getting frustrated and angry with your earthly surroundings, it's time to make peace. The K.I.S.S. ~ It's time to make peace!   How quickly we forget that our peace in life is not situationally-based. Your circumstances can be devastating, but you still can have peace. Not because of what you control in your every day, but who controls your every day. And the who is Jesus Christ. "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty." ~ Psalm 91:1 An easy life doesn't dictate whether or not you have peace. True peace only comes from God. When you are facing armies of problems, cry out to God. God's got you! This week has somewhat challenged my patience. My home was literally being shredded because of one water line. And this water line has been a thorn in my side for almost 2 years.  But as days turned to weeks into months, all I could do is trust that God had a plan. He knew what would happen and how every piece of the puzzle fit together. So I trusted. I let my faith lead my response. Yes, water is great in the shower, or outside for vegetation. But inside my home -- no more.  As the plumbers took out sections of walls and ceilings in multiple rooms (at least seven rooms), it was all I could do. My heart cried out, "Lord, I know You hold in Your hand the smallest of things. Please hold our home in Your hand, too." Looking back over the last 600 days, I can see how God has woven everything so precisely and beautifully.  In the moment, I didn't always understand. However, I carried the peace that passes all understanding. CHALLENGE: Where do you need God today in your life? Where do you need to release control and let Him weave together His heavenly plans? CAUTION: No matter how hard you try, God's way is always better.  CELEBRATION: Exalt what God is doing in your life even if you don't understand. Remember, the peace is not wrapped up in what you are doing, but how He is moving! It's time to make peace. God's got you!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

It's time to make peace, not with your life, but with God's plans.  Oh, how we can become consumed by the doings of the world. The distractions and detours can leave us feeling empty especially as the fear of the unknowns creeps into our minds. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Your circumstances and situations can rock your world for better or for worse. If you are not grounded in God's word and draw near to Him, it's tempting to become unglued. The unraveling of your days is just beginning. So instead of getting frustrated and angry with your earthly surroundings, it's time to make peace. The K.I.S.S. ~ It's time to make peace!   How quickly we forget that our peace in life is not situationally-based. Your circumstances can be devastating, but you still can have peace. Not because of what you control in your every day, but who controls your every day. And the who is Jesus Christ. "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty." ~ Psalm 91:1 An easy life doesn't dictate whether or not you have peace. True peace only comes from God. When you are facing armies of problems, cry out to God. God's got you! This week has somewhat challenged my patience. My home was literally being shredded because of one water line. And this water line has been a thorn in my side for almost 2 years.  But as days turned to weeks into months, all I could do is trust that God had a plan. He knew what would happen and how every piece of the puzzle fit together. So I trusted. I let my faith lead my response. Yes, water is great in the shower, or outside for vegetation. But inside my home -- no more.  As the plumbers took out sections of walls and ceilings in multiple rooms (at least seven rooms), it was all I could do. My heart cried out, "Lord, I know You hold in Your hand the smallest of things. Please hold our home in Your hand, too." Looking back over the last 600 days, I can see how God has woven everything so precisely and beautifully.  In the moment, I didn't always understand. However, I carried the peace that passes all understanding. CHALLENGE: Where do you need God today in your life? Where do you need to release control and let Him weave together His heavenly plans? CAUTION: No matter how hard you try, God's way is always better.  CELEBRATION: Exalt what God is doing in your life even if you don't understand. Remember, the peace is not wrapped up in what you are doing, but how He is moving! It's time to make peace. God's got you!   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

But even when you've had enough, you must learn how to smile back.  Life gets more than a little challenging. You can say life happens.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   Now, in my opinion, that phrase is used way too often, including by me. We settle in to the compromised idea, which turns into a thought, that this is normal. We accept it at face value and continue to complain and exchange 4-letter words, that won't be repeated here under our breaths. Yes, life happens. However, you get to choose your response or reaction to what happens in life. So take a moment this morning. Where could you have responded differently, which most likely would have affected the outcome of the situation? Well, last evening I experienced a frustrating situation myself. If you want to smile back, make your love bigger than your feelings. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your love bigger than your feelings!   If your feelings rule your relationship, you won't have a relationship for much longer.  Feelings are a way for you to remember or recall a circumstance in your life. The emotions in that moment are fleeting. But those feelings are the souvenirs of struggles. Unfortunately, most like to tango with those souvenirs. They are pretty, fancy, and inviting because you know them. You know those feelings. But if you have to work at responding differently, that makes you uncomfortable. Who wants elevated blood pressure on purpose? So in order to smile back, you want to make sure your love is bigger than your feelings.   <br />- Look beyond the situation. The crazy situation that you're in does not define your relationship unless you allow it. See the trees through the forest. <br />- Throw away the scoreboard. Don't try to be right all the time. <br />- Agree to disagree. Your marriage is made up of two imperfect people.  <br /> When you can separate your love from your situational feelings, it's a game changer. You are no longer controlled by your feelings. Instead, your conscious decision to serve and love your spouse unconditionally will give you more opportunities to smile more and love more. CHALLENGE: When you have a situation that doesn't prove to be fair in life, remember it's not about you. Figure out how you can smile back.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Don't think so much about the first day. Focus on the present. How excited are you? Every day matters. If I can be so honest, it's been a LONG week. With this being the second week of school, my two daughters starting the graduate programs, and my son starting college next week...All I can say is Geez!!!! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   So much to do with little time available. And everyone wants my attention.  Last night I was exhausted because work on our water leak had begun. I'm not really sure if moving is more stressful or forced renovations. Regardless, there I sat for the first time all day, drained, nodding off to our puppy's snore, and my name echoing through the hallway. When will I get a break? When will the schedule be set? How excited am I? Being a parent is a never-ending story. It doesn't matter if you are a new mom or an empty-nester. You are always a parent. So as you move into your new season this Fall, don't forget to be present. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't forget to be present!   As I was reminded yesterday, something so simple can still be so challenging. This might be a reminder more for me than for you, but we have got to stay in the game. Not just get in the game. But stay in the game. If you're tired, make time to rest. If you're frustrated, make time to chill out. If your dishes are dirty, don't fret. Just do 'em. Kids live in excuses just as much as adults do. So stand your ground and be a role model.  Do what you need to for your children! Master today to impact tomorrow.   "Be present. Be incredible.

Focus on the present. How excited are you? Every day matters. If I can be so honest, it's been a LONG week. With this being the second week of school, my two daughters starting the graduate programs, and my son starting college next week...All I can say is Geez!!!! Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of IMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   So much to do with little time available. And everyone wants my attention.  Last night I was exhausted because work on our water leak had begun. I'm not really sure if moving is more stressful or forced renovations. Regardless, there I sat for the first time all day, drained, nodding off to our puppy's snore, and my name echoing through the hallway. When will I get a break? When will the schedule be set? How excited am I? Being a parent is a never-ending story. It doesn't matter if you are a new mom or an empty-nester. You are always a parent. So as you move into your new season this Fall, don't forget to be present. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't forget to be present!   As I was reminded yesterday, something so simple can still be so challenging. This might be a reminder more for me than for you, but we have got to stay in the game. Not just get in the game. But stay in the game. If you're tired, make time to rest. If you're frustrated, make time to chill out. If your dishes are dirty, don't fret. Just do 'em. Kids live in excuses just as much as adults do. So stand your ground and be a role model.  Do what you need to for your children! Master today to impact tomorrow.   "Be present. Be incredible.

May the selection of your life choices lead you down the path to implementing your decisions. Master today to impact tomorrow. How has your week started? Some women I've spoken to are already exhausted and emotionally drained. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>. <a href="http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT" rel="noopener">http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT</a>   The thought of another day requiring further actions elongates the day to the point of frustration. Why can't I get anything done? At the same time, when life gets ahead of you, it's a great opportunity to pull back just a little. Remind yourself of the decisions you committed to and see if you actually followed through. Believe it or not, it's easy to take the short road to get where we want to go faster. But faster is not always better. Usually there's something lost along the way. So don't fret today. The K.I.S.S. ~ Implement your decisions!   Yesterday, I was writing down all the things that required my attention from personal to professional. The list grew quite quickly in a matter of seconds.  In fact, I couldn't write fast enough to keep up with my thoughts. As I reviewed the list, I immediately became drained because the list was growing and not shrinking. Most in part to my own doing. I needed to implement my decisions. Make time to do all the little things that were holding me back. Some of those were mere phone calls. Yes, they would have taken 15-20 minutes to conquer them individually. However, in about an hour or so, I could have knocked out the list. Instead, I allowed myself to be consumed by what I really didn't want to do even though my decisions were to follow through. Are you stuck in a place where you need to implement your decisions? Take the bull by the horns and go with it? Don't rely on your thoughts to get you through the day. You must take A.I.M. -- action ignites motivation. When you take action on your decisions made, you get that endorphin rush of accomplishment.  Celebrate life by doing the small stuff. And when you have to get your hands dirty with the big stuff, there's no reason to fuss. Just do it. Implement your decisions. Take what you know and put into action. Master today to impact tomorrow.   "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"     #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation <a href="https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163" rel="noopener">https://form.jotform.com/62988215824163</a>  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

May the selection of your life choices lead you down the path to implementing your decisions. Master today to impact tomorrow. How has your week started? Some women I've spoken to are already exhausted and emotionally drained. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Why can't I get anything done? At the same time, when life gets ahead of you, it's a great opportunity to pull back just a little. Remind yourself of the decisions you committed to and see if you actually followed through. Believe it or not, it's easy to take the short road to get where we want to go faster. But faster is not always better. Usually there's something lost along the way. So don't fret today. The K.I.S.S. ~ Implement your decisions!   Yesterday, I was writing down all the things that required my attention from personal to professional. The list grew quite quickly in a matter of seconds.  In fact, I couldn't write fast enough to keep up with my thoughts. As I reviewed the list, I immediately became drained because the list was growing and not shrinking. Most in part to my own doing. I needed to implement my decisions. Make time to do all the little things that were holding me back. Some of those were mere phone calls. Yes, they would have taken 15-20 minutes to conquer them individually. However, in about an hour or so, I could have knocked out the list. Instead, I allowed myself to be consumed by what I really didn't want to do even though my decisions were to follow through. Are you stuck in a place where you need to implement your decisions? Take the bull by the horns and go with it? Don't rely on your thoughts to get you through the day. You must take A.I.M. -- action ignites motivation. When you take action on your decisions made, you get that endorphin rush of accomplishment.  Celebrate life by doing the small stuff. And when you have to get your hands dirty with the big stuff, there's no reason to fuss. Just do it. Implement your decisions. Take what you know and put into action. Master today to impact tomorrow.   "Be present. Be incredible.
