What are you passionate about?  Have you ever really stopped to think about that for a minuet? Well maybe you should. You deserve to live a life that you are passionate about, not just living a life to be living.

Life without passion can be pretty boring, like you are just going through the motions just to make it through the day. Not having that passion, that burning desire inside you zaps all of your energy where on the other hand if you are living a life you are passionate about you have energy to burn.

 Passion itself has it’s own energy. People around you can see that something is different about you and they tend to be drawn to you, being around you makes them feel better and more energetic, they hope that whatever you have they can catch and feel what you are feeling.

Who would you rather be around? a person that was upbeat and passionate or someone that was always gloomy and negative? I would prefer to be around the passionate person and hope that their passion would rub off on me. I don’t want to be one of those people that you spot at the store and you hope they don’t see you so you turn and go the other way in hopes of avoiding them, I think you know what I’m sayin’ right? I want to be the one that you hope stops and talks to you for a moment.

Don’t be afraid to live the life you are passionate about, life is really too short not too. There is really no need to suffer and be afraid, take a chance and live life to the fullest.

I’m sure you have all heard the quote ” Live every day like it will be your last”  if you do this then you will have no reason to live a life of regret because you gave life all you have.

 I would like to share with you something that happened to me the other day while at the dentist. I was sitting there in the waiting room waiting to be called back to the room when a sweet little white haired lady in a wheel chair was being pushed toward me. I heard ho speak to the receptionist and her voice alone made me smile, it was a high pitched yet soft almost child like little voice. I was sitting at the end of a hallway so we literally came face to face with each other.

Like I said she was a sweet little lady, and when she was right in front of me I looked at her, smiled and said “Hi! How are you” typical right? well she looked at me, smiled back and said ” hello! I’m fine fine fine…no I’m not” all in one breath without ever missing a beat as she was being pushed right passed me.

I’m sure she must get asked that question so much that she gets sick of hearing it, but she was so cute it made everyone in the room smile and chuckle a little. She said what everyone expects her to say and then told how she really felt.

How many times do you say what you think everyone wants to hear? or be one of those that spills their guts and tells their whole sorry life’s story? Don’t be one of those negative people that you want to hide from at the store, instead let your passion shape your life, take a risk and Live!

Don’t be afraid to step outside the box, you can’t and don’t live inside a bubble. Discover who you are!  If you are suffering from low self-esteem or lack of self-confidence, that can rob you of living and finding your passion.  There is a program fromNeuro-VISION that might be just what you are looking for called Self-Confidence Hypnosis, please take a moment and check it out, You deserve to feel good about your self.

You are awesome!

Live, Laugh, Love,

Do you ever feel like there is something missing in your life, that there should be something more? Are you looking for something but not really sure what it is? Maybe you are lacking love in your life, the love of yourself. It’s hard to feel emotionally whole when you aren’t in touch with who you are, you just feel like a piece of you is missing.The time has come for you to find that lovable person you have been hiding. Nothing is ever going to change until you do. It’s just like the saying “Do what you have always done and you will get what you have always gotten” so if you are tired of getting the same old thing make a few changes and just see what happens.One of the first things I did that really made a change in my life was to get rid of the negative outlook I had on life. Then I stopped complaining all the time about every little thing that didn’t go the way I wanted it to. When someone would ask “How are you today” I would answer by saying something like “things could be better” or “do you really want to know” then I would proceed to tell them something that was going bad in my life and you know what? People DO NOT want to hear it, they have their own problems. Now when someone is to ask me how I am I just give them a big smile and say “Just Peachy” or “I’m great how, are you?” You might be surprised at the response you get and at how much better it will make you both feel.                                                                                        There really is way too much negative things in the world that can have an effect on you and you not even realize it, just look at the news and all the bad stuff on there; violence, war, the economy, illness the list goes on and on. I stopped watching the news, it’s no wonder people have nightmares when they watch the news right before they go to bed.Life is too short to dwell on the negative. Start trying to be more positive and see what kind of difference it makes in the way you feel, mentally and physically. Begin to take care of yourself first and see that your needs are being met. Don’t be afraid to tell people what you want, people can’t read your mind and if you don’t tell them what you are feeling or what you want or need they just might not know. That is an area that I have always fallen a little short in, I expect people to know what I want and how I feel and I find it very difficult to ask for things.  Remember too, if you don’t know what you want or how you are feeling chances are no one else is going to know either. Take a chance and say “no” every once in a while and take note of how that tiny little word has so much power. You are more powerful than you give yourself credit for and it’s time to unleash that power and become everything that you desire. You were born for Greatness!If you are needing a little more help becoming that lovable, powerful person that you have hidden inside you, stick with me and I will continue to share what I have learned with you and try to guide and direct you as to where you can look for more help and information. If there is an area you would like to know more about or an area that you or a loved one are struggling with feel free to let me know and I will do all I can to help you. I have been there and I know what it’s like and there is hope.You are Awesome! Live, Laugh, Love, Kathy

What does it mean to you to be loveable? Not just by someone else but by YOU! Do you unconditionally Love Yourself or do you let others determine your worth? Do you like who you are? Are you happy with the way you look? Do you think you are smart, funny, or maybe even unique?  Are you free to be you? These are a few of the questions you need to ask yourself and truthfully answer so you can assess how unconditionally you love and accept yourself.You need to feel free to be yourself, and that is something I have struggled with throughout my life. I always thought that I had to be what everyone else thought I should be and I was afraid that if I didn’t “be and do” what others thought I should that they wouldn’t like me and would treat me poorly. That is the worst thing you could ever do to yourself, never deny who you are to please someone else. You have to break free from worrying about what others think of you and concentrate on what you think of “you”. It has taken me a long time to figure all this out and I am still learning every day. It’s all about knowing what you want and getting in touch with your thoughts and feelings. You have to take ownership of who you are and stop letting other people control you, your thoughts, your feelings, your self worth, that’s not you, you are not a puppet. You are a unique individual and you need to take charge of your life to be happy. If someone doesn’t like you for who you are don’t try to change yourself for them, you deserve better than that. Do you really think that you can deny yourself of you and still be happy? I don’t think so, not truly happy, I have been there done that. Don’t get me wrong I am sure you can convince yourself that you are doing the right thing and that everything will work out but you are just in denial. I think I felt like I didn’t deserve to be happy, that I was inferior and needed someone to tell me what to do; that way I didn’t think I would be held accountable if things didn’t work out because I did as I was told. How crazy is that? You need to step up and take responsibility for yourself. Take steps to find out what makes you tick, your likes and dislikes. Feel free to be yourself. Know that you are ok just the way you are. You are special and there is no one else exactly like you. You learn what you live so live your life to the fullest, be positive, treat others the way you would like to be treated. Love unconditionally and yes that includes your self.

Becoming Lovable is a journey through self discovery. You are who you are and no one has the right to change you except you. Only you can give someone permission to control you and treat you poorly and why would you want to do that? You deserve so much more. I want to help you on your road to self discovery if you will let me, because I think ….You are Awesome!

No man can ever give you your self worth, but you can let many rob you of it.  Read that again…..No man can ever give you your self worth, but many can rob you of it.  Do you understand what is being said here?  You have to determine your own self worth and not let what you think others think of you influence how you see your self. Don’t live your life for someone else or through someone else, live your life for you!  Only you can determine your value and only you can give someone else the power to rob you of your self esteem. You are in control how you let others treat you. 

Have you ever really thought about why people really get married….and some times at such an early age?  We marry to grow up and to get away from our parents, most of us don’t even know who we are at this point in time but we think that this is the right thing to do when this really couldn’t be further from the truth. The truth is that sometimes we marry for all the wrong reasons, and we usually marry the wrong person. We think that when we get married that our lives are going to change so much, and for the better. We are so excited that we are going to start a new live and be all grown up but then things begin to change. All of a sudden things aren’t fun anymore and the person we married and thought we loved suddenly starts to change. If you were unhappy at home then you more than likely will be unhappy with your marriage. You have to be happy with you before you can be happy in a relationship.

Your marriage can only be as happy and emotionally healthy and content as you are. Many of us settle for less than the love we deserve because we lack the self love we are desperately hoping to find in a relationship. A relationship can not fill the void if you are lacking a healthy self esteem. You may end up loosing yourself instead of finding yourself if you are looking for the other persons feelings and value of you to determine who you are.

If you begin to find the relationship lonely and unfulfilling you may begin to believe that it is a reflection of you and that you must have done something wrong, that there is something lacking in you. You have to be true to yourself and be courageous and turn away from using your relationship as a reflector of your worth, sometimes there are just bad relationships and that’s not your fault.

You are an intelligent, compassionate, warm, strong, generous, powerful, beautiful person and if you don’t see this then you have been looking for your worth in all the wrong faces…..Take a look in the mirror….there you will find your self worth!

You are Awesome!

WoW! It’s hard to believe it’s July already, where did the year go? I guess you could think about that two different ways, 1) the year is half over or 2) the second half of the year is just beginning. I believe the second one is more exciting, there is still time to accomplish so many things before the year ends. Let’s make Independence Day a day of celebration of your life, not just the country.Let’s mark this day as the beginning of the rest of your life! Make it something spectacular! Be positive that the rest of the year is going to be everything you could ever dream that it could be.  You have all the time there is so make the most of it.Why should we wait till the 4th of July to celebrate? We should celebrate our lives everyday. You have to make it a choice and a priority to make the most out of your life. If you wait until the right time or the perfect moment then you could miss out on so much, don’t let life pass you by.Take care of “YOU” mentally and physically, work on yourself from the inside out. You need to get in touch with who you are, know what your heart’s desire is and then take the necessary steps to attain it. You may find this hard to believe but there are so many people out there that have no idea where they are going, what they want, how they are going to get there and many don’t believe they deserve any of it.That is sad but true but Self Esteem issues are a growing problem. We need to learn how to overcome low self esteem and start building a higher sense of self, learn to love who we are and just become the best you that you can be.So what does Independence mean to you? Are you living a life worth celebrating? If not, WHY? You are Awesome and worth more than you could ever imagine, you are unique and worthy to be loved and celebrated. Take a little time each day to celebrate “you”;  do something that makes you feel good about who you are even if it’s just taking the time to read a chapter in a book or go for a walk, whatever it is that you want to do that makes you happy….just do it!There is no better time than today to start becoming lovable to yourself because that’s where you have to start; with loving yourself, then everything else will just seem to fall into place. You are the most important person in the world so take care of you first. Become the best you can be.I think you should take the time to read “7Power Words to Live BY” written by Leticia Vandramini, this book will help you to understand the power you have within you to make yourself happier and more confident.

You may also want to read “How to Build Your Self-Esteem in Just One Weekend” for more understanding about self -esteem issues.

Come on and join me in the celebration of life, I guarantee you that it will be worth it!

You are Awesome!
