Dancing on the edge of truth – the battle between hope and doubt. We’ve all done it at one time or another. Deep within us we know there is something more. We notice it in others or perhaps it’s that quiet voice inside that tugs at our heart and whispers “Don’t Settle”.

From the moment we open our eyes each morning we are presented with a multitude of choices. Over time some of our choices may become habits. Attitude is a choice. We get to choose our outlook for each day

Early in my faith journey I attended a Prayer Seminar. I remember thinking, “Can’t imagine this will take long. Seriously, how many different ways are there to pray?” Not long into the seminar I was humbled to realize

Every adventure has a day one – that moment when you know your life is about to change. I’m talking about the adventures we plan, the ones that begin to take shape in our mind. At first it may simply be a hint of an idea – of an outcome – of a destination. Inside, joy, expectation and perhaps a bit of fear begin to bubble up. Ideas come and go as the adventure gains more clarity and purpose. Change is on the horizon and there’s a voice inside that clamors, “Bring it!”
I’m told that I use the term adventure often and for a variety of reasons.

And now I’ll do what’s best for me… Some “cringe” at the sound of that. You believe that putting yourself first is <— fill in your own judgement —>.

New day and new year, today I begin again. Beginnings are my specialty. I love the magic of uncharted territories – the hope that fuels a fresh new start. Even as a child I could hardly wait for the first day of school. With my fresh untouched school supplies I looked forward to an unpredictable school year.
Carried into adult life, I approach life in the same way. Monday mornings are my opportunity to do-over, do-better or do-differently. For each new month and now a new year, I set goals. I’m confident that “this time I’ll succeed.”

My new normal, is a popular expression that implies that what once was out of the norm is now considered normal. It’s about changes. We change our mind – how we see things. We change our actions – new habits, behaviors, where we live, who we live with and so much more. These changes can happen to us or we can choose to make them happen. The result is the same – life as we knew it is no longer.

I took a walk down memory lane this morning in search of an old post in my Life Coach Maggie Facebook Page. This took me down several bunny trails – some of you, like me, travel those trails frequently. As happens often, I got distracted and quite frankly can’t remember what I was searching for to begin with. Instead, I ran across one of my early live Facebook videos. While still an amateur at this, I chose to share it here because the message is worth repeating.
read moreChange happens – no doubt about that. It happens to us and sometimes we (you) create the change. As a result of the change, you can choose to alter your next steps, or for many, just circle-back and let it happen all over again. Been there?
