Love is a feeling hard to define. For me the basis of love is one built on respect, trust and shared experiences

Dreams will forever remain dreams without action.

Do positive affirmations work? Very much so. I used to struggle when being given a compliment until I realised it was because I didn't believe it. I did not feel worthy. I began daily affirmations and in the beginning it felt a bit unnatural. Day after day I kept at it. Start with one thing and repeat until you believe it, do things to reinforce your belief. Make a habit of reminding yourself just how awesome you are!⁠

Finding the balance to do the things that nourish your soul whilst the demands of life are never ending is hard. Time is luxury for most. Every waking moment is accounted for. I have often come to the end of the day and wonder where did the hours go. I've had to be regimented in finding time to just prioritise me. In that time I have found that by giving myself that time, I am more present in my work and family life.

We all have dreams. Changing them to reality can be daunting. Define your dream, set a goal, work out what you need to do to reach your goal. Form a habit of working towards your goal everyday. You WILL have setbacks and bad days. That's fine. Nothing worth doing is ever easy.

There is no shortcut to reaching your goals. Stay the course, believe in yourself and keep at it

Just Chill

We're all dealt a different set of cards in this life. Play the hand you are dealt.

Monday Motivation. Choose to start your week with positivity and energy.

Past failure can make us hesitate to try again but there are valuable lessons to be learnt in failure. Be proud that you gave it a try. Dust yourself off and try again.

Introvert or extrovert? This weekend do something that replenishes your soul. Have dinner with friends, indulge in a good book, go on a hike. Whatever it may be, do something that makes you feel good.
