Finding yourself is not such a secret once you understand the truth about the search for self. How many times have you heard someone say “I’m trying to find myself?” Whenever I hear that phrase I wonder where does one look for themselves – Under the couch, behind the laundry room door, or in the closet?

Control Your Mind, Control Your World

How I Achieved a Goal I Didn’t Know I Had
It was a slow Sunday in mid-August. I was laying in bed – fighting the voice of my younger son calling out to me over and over; “mommy, I am hungry,” “mommy, what’s for breakfast,” “mommy, are you ever going to get out of bed?” I just laid there. I knew I should get up. But it was only 8:07 …

Are You Afraid To Try?
A few years ago, and a lot of diary pages written, I thought about starting a blog.

I got sucked into a little profile hopping today.
