Happy Father's Day!!!

Give acceptance

Instead of constantly seeking acceptance from others, give acceptance to yourself. Accept who you are, wholly and without reservation.

Accept your own brilliant, unique value. Then add immensely to that value by graciously and gratefully accepting the special value of the other people in your life.

Each person is delightfully different, and so are you. Accept and embrace that diversity.
You are inherently worthy, whether anyone explicitly tells you that or not. Give acceptance, to yourself and others, and you will have no need to seek it.

Give acceptance, and you will have no worries about not getting it. Do what you do, not because of how it will appear, but for the real difference it will make.

Accept the goodness that you know is in your authentic nature. Accept yourself, and all that is, and be free to live the abundance without hesitation.

An empowered day If you catch yourself feeling sorry for yourself you’ve discovered a valuable opportunity. You can transform the negative energy of self-pity into positive energy to improve your situation. When you’ve been disappointed by life, take a step back and look at the positive value in that disappointment. You have a powerful reason to become more determined than ever before. Life has its ups and its downs. And you can choose to benefit from both. Success is not a matter of having everything go your way. Success comes from choosing to find the value in whatever way things go. Don’t waste your time and energy making judgments about whether you’re having a good day or a bad day. Decide to take whatever comes and make it into an empowered day. Whatever form it takes, life is always supplying you with the raw material for fulfillment. Make good use of it all to move your life surely and steadily in the direction of your dreams.

It’s not their fault. It’s your responsibility. If you’re not moving forward, what’s stopping you is you. That’s very good news, because it means you are in control of your own destiny. If you continue to blame and complain and procrastinate and make excuses, you’ll continue to be disappointed with the way life unfolds. When you’re ready to stop all that, and when you really do, and when you choose to be responsible for it all, you dramatically change your outlook for the better. It is difficult and uncomfortable to take full responsibility for your life and your world. The only thing that’s even more difficult is to not take that responsibility, and to live with the unending regret. Yes, there are many things you cannot control, and most of the difficult challenges are not your fault. Even so, if you wish to create real fulfillment, the way to do so is by taking responsibility anyway. This is your life, your opportunity, and your universe of beautiful possibilities. Take responsibility for it all, no matter what, and make it into a magnificent and increasingly joyful experience.

Working the possibilities

You don’t get what you merely wish for. You get what you live for and what you work for.
The life you experience does not depend on what happens to come your way. The life you experience is based on how you choose to live it.

The priorities that matter in your life are not the ones you just talk about. Your true priorities, the ones that determine which way your life proceeds, are the ones you consistently act on.

You have the opportunity right now, today, to bring great quantities of richness and fulfillment into your life. Yet that richness will not come from what you wish for, or what you talk about, or what you plan to do someday.

That richness will come from what you actually do with the time and the energy and the resources you have available to you. That richness will come from working the possibilities that are uniquely yours.

Skip right on past the wishing for and talking about and planning to stage. Get right to work on your best possibilities, and experience the unmatched joy of bringing them fully to life.

Your most rewarding role Be your best by being you. Be highly effective by being highly authentic. Stop wasting your effort and energy to hide who you truly are. Your greatest value is in your own uniqueness, so let that value freely flow from you. There is great power in truth. In the truth of who you are is the power to be the best you can be. Allow the boundless energy of your authentic desires to keep you enthusiastic and inspired. Let yourself be unapologetically who you are and let your beautiful inner value be expressed in ways that benefit all those around you. Say what you know is true, and do what you know is right. Give your best by being faithful to what you know is best. Let everyone else be like everyone else. Your most rewarding role is to be you.

Life is yours

Don’t wait for someday. This is the day, this is the moment, this is your opportunity to live.
Let go of any thoughts of unworthiness or limitation. You absolutely deserve every joy you can imagine and you’re fully capable of creating them all.

Stop settling for what’s merely easy or comfortable or convenient. Give yourself the respect you deserve and take on the difficult challenges that bring real fulfillment.

Give your life some beautiful, meaningful substance today. Remind yourself of how fortunate you are to have each moment, and sincerely, authentically fill those moments with richness.

Acknowledge and be thankful for what you desire to experience, to express, to give and to live. Then, fully engage the power of your purpose and make it happen.

The best of life is never out of reach. It is yours to fulfill, with richness and substance, right now.

What you know you must It doesn’t really matter what other people say or think about you. Go ahead and do what you know is best. The disappointments of the past are no big deal, and your fears of the future exist only in your imagination. Step forward and do what you know you must do. The excuses are so tired and worn out that they’ve become meaningless. Let them go, and let yourself take effective, productive, meaningful action. Your dreams are calling you forward. Your highest vision of what life can be is yours precisely because you are the person who can bring it about. When there’s a rich and shining dream on the inside, and you’re making your way toward it, life feels great. Even the pains and disappointments cannot bring you down, because you know they’re mere waypoints on the journey to the fulfillment you seek. This moment right now is your opportunity to do what you know you must. This moment right now is the next step on the path to your most treasured dream.

Cheerfully do

Don’t be resentful of your responsibilities. Instead, be thankful for your abilities.
Don’t feel burdened by your obligations. Instead, feel the freedom and possibilities in the opportunities you have to make a difference.

Life can often be serious, complicated and demanding. It’s not all fun and games.
Yet every day, no matter what it holds, is a chance for real fulfillment. Every situation is a situation to which you can bring positive meaning and purpose.

If you get hung up on fighting against what you have to do, you can miss out on some of the most valuable and enriching things you’re able to do. If you waste a lot of energy on resentment, you have that much less energy available to create achievement.

Cheerfully do what there is for you to do, then step up and do even more. Life is yours to be lived, so give your life the richness you deserve.

Not to envy Why waste your time and energy, and poison your attitude, by being envious? Instead of being envious, be inspired. Not only is it impossible for you to live someone else’s life, even if you could do it you wouldn’t really like it. What you can do is joyfully live your own life, informed and instructed by the joy you see in others. Your greatest fulfillment comes from being you. If someone else’s life looks appealing, the most realistic and effective response is to emulate, not to envy. Envy is centered in an overwhelming sense of lack and limitation. So if you envy, you push away the very things you desire. A much more powerful and positive response is to be sincerely thankful for the good fortune of others. When you do that, you’re able to benefit from that good fortune too. Stop creating envy. And start allowing your very own version of life’s great abundance.

The best there can be

It is by giving of yourself that you fully understand and appreciate how very much you have available to give. It is by making a small difference, again and again, that you realize what an enormous difference you can make.

Do you ever feel like hunkering down and hiding from life because it has been so cruel and difficult? In fact, your best choice is the complete opposite.

If life has disappointed you, it’s because you haven’t opened yourself fully to its wonder and richness. When life is pushing hard against you, it’s because you’ve been holding back.

The external disappointments are possible only because there is beautiful and worthwhile and meaningful internal value. Let that value freely flow out from you, and delight in the experience as it colors your world in a more positive light.

Life’s goodness is made possible by your vision of that goodness. Your dreams are made real by your commitment to them.
Give the best that you have. And you’ll experience the best there can be. 

Your starting point

You are where you are. Accept it and feel the power your acceptance gives you to move forward.
This moment is as it is. Accept its uniqueness and experience the freedom of not having to fight against it.
There are difficult challenges in your life. Accept them and feel the energy that will enable you to rise above them.
Accept that this is your starting point. Instead of placing judgments on it, see the real, positive value that’s already yours.

You cannot change where your past priorities and choices have brought you. Yet you can make use of the wisdom you’ve earned from it all to create a future that fulfills your most treasured dreams.

Lovingly and gratefully accept who you’ve been, what you’ve done, what you have and where you are. For you can now transform it all into what you most wish to be.

Achieve today

Achievement is not complicated, and it is easily within your reach. Achievement is as close as your next action.
You are made to make a difference, and you have a constant desire to make a difference. So instead of sulking, instead of complaining, instead of filling your thoughts with empty wishes, fill your time with purposeful effort and make that difference.

Now is when achievement can happen, yet it doesn’t just happen on its own. Take the first little step, feel how good and right it feels, and suddenly you’re making it happen.

There’s nothing to be gained by waiting for the perfect time or the perfect conditions. Now is the perfect time because it is the time you have.

You can transform today into meaningful achievement, or you can transform it into painful regret. Make the effort to make the achievement happen, and you’ll thank yourself over and over again.

Achieve today, because you can and because it will lift your whole world higher. Achieve today, and experience life at its best.

Positive thoughts

It is not easy to think positive thoughts when the world around you appears to be so negative. In fact, it can be as difficult as anything you’ve ever done.

However, it is absolutely possible to fill your mind with positive thoughts no matter what your circumstances. Doing so empowers you like nothing else can.

To think positively is to align yourself with the truth that you’re immersed in a universe of limitless, growing abundance. To think positively is to graciously accept that your life is destined for meaningful and unique fulfillment.

Instead of placing a judgment on your situation, apply your most positive intentions to that situation. Instead of seeing the world as negative, see yourself as a powerful agent of the positive possibilities.

If you find yourself giving in to negativity, you are selling yourself short. The moment you feel the slightest twinge of a negative thought, stop and remind yourself how powerful you are.

Do the disciplined, intentional work to keep your thoughts positive. Because whatever you most consistently think, is where your life will surely and steadily go.

Let life arrive

Open yourself to all that is here and now. Open yourself to the sounds, the textures, the sights, the tastes, the aromas and the feelings as they arrive in your awareness.

Let life arrive, and let yourself marvel at the wonder and abundance of it all. Experience for yourself, free from all doubt, how anything is possible.

All that you desire is somewhere within all you already have. And now you have the fortuitous opportunity of working steadfastly to fully express it.

Open yourself to life’s best possibilities as they ride in on waves of now. What life continually brings you is always more than enough, when you choose to make loving use of it.

Let go of the illusion that you can win by fighting. Let your highest dreams be nourished by each and every thing that comes your way.

Let life arrive in all its richness. And as it flows through your awareness and your purpose, delight in adding your own unique value.

Life is always good  Life is always good, because you can make of it anything you choose. Life is good, because it is exceptionally flexible. Life is good because you can express what it means to be alive in your own unique and fulfilling way. And that is precisely how you make your life good and rich and full. On this day, in this place, just as you are, life is good. For you have the opportunity to live with passion and purpose. You can explore, you can invent, you can question, you can taste, you can give, you can observe and you can build. You can commit your whole life to what you value and quickly move away from what you don't. The possibilities spread out endlessly in every direction. And you are here, right now, to consider, select and act upon the ones that most appeal to you. Life can be frustrating and challenging and painful, difficult and unfair. Even so, life is always good because you can always make it better, and in so doing you make it great.

What you seek When you look for things to complain about, you’ll find plenty. When you look for things to be joyful about, you’ll also find plenty. So what kind of world do you wish to live in? Do you prefer to live in a world full of annoyance and frustration, or would you rather live in a world filled with opportunities for joy? You can choose the quality of your world by choosing your focus. You can choose the quality of your life by choosing what you seek. Seek to be a true, sincere friend, and you’ll find that you have many good friends. Seek to provide real, honest, creative value and you’ll experience much meaningful value flowing into your life. Whether you realize it or not, whether you like it or not, you are highly effective at achieving the goals that most intensely occupy your awareness. So what exactly are the things that most intensely and most frequently fill your awareness? Your attitude in every moment defines what you are seeking. And what you seek, is what you get.

Absolutely convinced 

The way to get yourself to do anything is to first accept that you must do it. Until you stop fighting against yourself, you'll never get much done.

It is common and natural to avoid difficult, challenging effort. Even so, you can always choose to allow yourself to make the effort.

You absolutely have the ability to do the necessary work and reach whatever goal you set for yourself. To fully unleash that ability, you just have to fully and sincerely buy into the goal.

It is essential that you completely convince yourself of the worthiness and desirability of what you intend to do. Once you are absolutely convinced, you'll be absolutely committed.

The most important person to have on your side is you. Once you are truly convinced and committed, you'll be able to get other people convinced and committed.

When it means everything to you, you'll make the commitment to do whatever it takes. And with that total commitment, you'll get it done.

Get it started

If you wait until the fear is gone, the opportunity will have already passed. If you wait until you’re sure you’ll get it perfect, you’ll never get it started.

The time to act is when you have the intention. The time to act is as soon as you feel the urge to make a difference.
If you hesitate, you’ll begin to talk yourself out of it. When you give in to doubt, doubt will seize the momentum.
Let the fear inform you and prepare you, but do not assume that it must stop you. Realize that whatever you doubt you can do is precisely what you must find a way to do.

Choose to transform each excuse for holding back into permission to step forward. Remind yourself that you can handle the uncertainty and the challenges, and can in fact thrive on them.

As soon as you decide to get it done, go ahead right then and get it started. Make the commitment, and you’ll create the achievement.

In good time 

Life always comes to you in good time. There's no need to rush it, and nothing to be gained by attempting to hold it back.

Some things will take longer than you thought they would. Go ahead and get them completed anyway.
Some things will arrive sooner than you anticipated. Go ahead and deal with them when they do.
Make good and thoughtful use of every moment that comes your way. Peacefully let go of any anxiety or resentment about how little time you have or how much time it takes, and simply give your best as time continues to flow.

In good time, you'll get it done. In good time, you'll look back and know without a doubt that you have indeed been moving forward.

The day ahead is filled with opportunities for joy and fulfillment. Give yourself completely to each moment as it comes, and in good time you'll fill your world with richness.

Positive experience 

Positive experiences create positive momentum. And positive momentum brings even more positive experiences.
Give yourself the gift of a genuine, meaningful positive experience. The benefits of that time will continue long after the experience has ended.

Be good to yourself and it will be great for your life. Truly enjoy the world around you and you'll see opportunities that were previously invisible.

Joy is always possible. Allow a little joy to flow out from your life.
Being good to yourself is not selfish. Because the more fulfillment you experience, the more value you have to give to others.

Have fun with what you have and enjoy where you are. Life's great abundance is yours when you can truly feel that it's there.

Almighty God 

Be the real you!  Let life know who you are. If you have to hide yourself to get what you want, do you really even want it? And while you're at it, make sure you let yourself know who you are. Be absolutely honest and authentic,    especially with yourself. It's easy to get what you want from life. The real difficult and essential work is figuring out what that is. If you think it might be nice, that's not enough. If it looks good on somebody else, that's not enough.  What you truly want is what you dearly love. It is something that uniquely and elegantly expresses the real, live, passionate person you are. You cannot find that or follow it by pretending to be who you're not. Be the real you, all the time, and joyfully feel the flow of your own great abundance.

Life is good  Life is difficult, life is unfair, life is challenging and sometimes painful. And life is so very good. There are frustrations, tragedies, disappointments, setbacks, heartbreaks, and absurdities. The simple joy of being outweighs them all. Life is good, because within its realm, anything is possible. Life is good, because no matter how far you fall, there is always a way to climb back up again. You can complain, fret and worry about all the problems in your life, but you’ll be wasting your time. Or, you can choose to focus on why and how life is so good, and on what you can do to take that goodness and make it even better. Not only is life good, it’s uniquely good for you in your very own way. The possibilities for expressing your purpose are limited only by your imagination. Remind yourself often of the great and wonderful value that you already, always have. Life is good, and in this moment that’s bursting with possibilities, life is yours.

it is an amazing feeling to confess my love to someone who is so deserving i want to share the rest of my life and beyond..i'm so happy i'm your wife!!HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!May you be blessed with all that you have ever dreamt of..We love you!!Thank you for all the countless caring ways you've filled life with love.. =) God Bless!

Series of miracles Today is nothing less than a miracle. Your life is even more of a miracle. Feeling the warm sun on your face seems like such a simple thing. And yet that simple little experience is made possible by unimaginably complex and profound factors, all coming together in a single moment. And then, when one amazing moment is finished, another has just begun. Even the most seemingly ordinary life is a series of magnificent miracles, each one following quickly after the one before. It is all too easy to take it all for granted. And just the fact that you can take it for granted is itself an amazing thing. You can never fully appreciate all that goes into the wonder in which you’re immersed. And because of that, there is no limit to how much you can treasure it all. Even when you are continually thankful, there is always more for which to be thankful. Even when you know you have it good, you don’t ever fully know how good you have it. Celebrate the miracles that come in every moment within the overall miracle that is your life. And as each moment falls away, there is another one for you to celebrate.
