We many times in relationships get so caught up in the emotional aspect of a relationship that we overlook many things that aggravate us and we should always cover people with grace and love but some actions can not be tolerated for long periods of time. If you do not have boundaries and borders in your life then the world and the people in your relationship will make them for you. If your husband not helping around the house is a sore spot in your relationship then communicate to him that Acts of Service is your Love language not pretty doo dads that he keeps buying and then sitting on the sofa as you run around doing all the tasks at home. |

In today's society we are expected to multitask and be constantly in motion to meet the worlds expectation of success. A single mom will attempt to run her kids everywhere, run her own business, keep the house clean, mow the lawn and at the end of the day be absolutely exhausted. I believe that if we focus on allowing other's to help us and we focus on our strengths and allow other's to use their strengths. Focus can be a light bulb and give radiance to a large room and you can be like that light bulb and be good or mediocre at many things or you can focus your God Given strengths into a laser light focus and be excellent and great at one thing. |

Motivation comes from within and usually starts with emotions, feeling, passion and then time comes along with his companion adversity and sees how bad do you want to accomplish your goals. Motivation with out action is just wishful thinking and dreaming. I am all for dreaming but dreams become reality only with intentional decisions to do today what you can and one year from today you will be further along than you ever thought possible. Motivation gets us started... |

Confrontation... Never easy but always necessary.. Confrontation is good for the one confronting and the one being confronted. If you don't communicate and confront the person that is treating you disrespectfully then don't expect it to change. It will continue until you value yourself enough to make the necessary sacrifices to be healthy. The confrontation may end up causing you to lose a relationship or friendship or job yet if the friendship/relationship/job environment was toxic and manipulative then it is just time before it infects every aspect of your life. |

2012 is coming to an end. This year has moved quickly for some and slowly for others. We need to learn time is relative and not permanent. Time will run out, but if we truly learn to manage time and seek perspective we can control our thoughts and have less judgement and more grace. What is one person's great day is someone else's worst day ever. Days and Nights, Sunshine and Moon Light, Stars and Storms, Peace and War, Birth and Death, |
