The Only 3 Tips You'll Ever Need for Finding a Job Fast

So you're looking for work and want to get back on your feet as quickly as possible? Well, I've got several tips that will help you find a job a lot faster than you may think. When I was unemployed several years ago, I dug my heels in and determined to do everything in my power to get back to work. While I was it, I decided I'd find my dream job. I knew it sounded crazy, but what did I have to lose right?

I developed something what I call the

How Lebron James Won His First NBA Championship Title

Let me start off by saying I don't personally know Lebron James but I did know he would win his first championship title this year and let me explain why. Last year when Lebron decided to leave the Cleveland Cavs and play for the Miami Heat, he stirred up a lot of controversy.  Regardless of what his motivation was for leaving, I gave him credit for taking a risk.  He did it without caring what people would say.  He made a choice.  Now his first year with Miami was without question the most mentally taxing year he's ever had. Not because he was new to the team and had to formulate a bond so they could optimize their performance as a unit but this is why-

Happy Independence Day!

When I think of the word independence, I think of Freedom.  Not only are we blessed with the freedoms that we have as Americans, but we were created with certain inalienable spiritual freedoms as well.  We were made in the image of God with the freedom, power and authority to speak things into existence in our lives.  We are free to change any adverse condition in our lives simply with a thought.  This is true freedom.  Sadly, most people are aware of their freedoms as Americans moreso than their freedoms as majestic, spiritual creatures with the same dominion Jesus had when He walked the earth.  The greatest day in a person's life is the day he awakens to the truth of who he is.  Freedom is being completely independent from a lack mentality and free to create a life that is beyond our wildest imaginations.  So today celebrate all of the blessings we've been given, and this beautiful land we live in called America but don't forget you are truly free, spirit, soul and body! Now that's Freedom!

I Make My Own Sunshine

Have you seen the Lowe's commercial? You know the one that shows a woman rolling out a carpet of thick, green, grass already filled with these fuzzy, pink flowers accompanied by this incredibly peppy song? I found the song on Youtube by Alyssa Bonagura called "I Make My Own Sunshine" and fell in love with it! Thank you Alyssa! It really does make me feel like the sun is shining on me when I hear it. So for all of my friends that experience the Monday blues- listen to this for a pick me up: i make my own sunshine..ooo..ooooh..oooh..

3 Important Ways You Can Achieve Laser Focus

Can you believe we are entering into the second half of 2012? Hopefully, you are closely monitoring your progress this year and have been able to cross off some completed goals from your list.  Daily planning is a crucial way of accomplishing your girls. I, for one, am learning to do a better job of planning my day so I can get that much closer to accomplishing my goals this year.  It's such a great feeling to have accomplished something.  So here are some tools you can add to  your toolbox for staying focused.

Tag Team
One way is to find a partner to which you can be accountable.  Meet weekly and discuss your long-term goals, short-term goals and discuss your status on completed goals for that week.
This can help motivate you knowing you'll have to provide some kind of status report that week.  It's also a great way to get feedback on current projects.  For example, my best friend and I, meet regularly to discuss our writing projects.  We motivate each other to keep going and the positive energy generated in these meetings sometimes inspire new projects.

Pocket List
Keep a list of your goals on and index card and carry around with you everywhere you go.  I actually have a million dollar bill that has my goals written on it, which I carry in my bra. Hey, whatever works for you, right?  It's a daily reminder of what I'm working towards and everytime I remember it's there I make a conscious decision to smile and give thanks that my goals have been completed. 

Visioneer
Design your life.  Take a moment in the morning, when your subconscious mind is most susceptible to suggestion, to visualize in all 5 senses the life of your dreams.  Be very specific.  Your subconscious doesn't know it's not real.  Do this again before you go to sleep.

These techniques are highly effective.  Soon the year will be over and you'll be sitting down to create new resolutions for another highly productive year!

Here are some more effective techniques:

Feeling Down? Do This To Feel Good Fast!

Next time you're feeling stressed, a little down, angry or fearful say the following words for a quick way to refocus and clear negative emotions:

I am so thankful that:

I AM LOVE

I endure long and I am patient and kind; I am never envious nor overwhelmed with jealousy

I am not boastful nor vain, nor do I display myself haughtily.

I am not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride)

I am not rude (unmannerly) and do not act unbecomingly.

I AM Love and I do not insist on my own rights or my own way, for I am not selfish;

I am not touchy or fretful or resentful;

I pay no attention to any evil done to me

I do not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoice when right and truth prevail.

I bear up under anything and everything that comes

Always ready to believe the best of every person,

My hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and I endure everything [without weakening].

I AM LOVE AND I NEVER FAIL

If you feel the same after the first time, then keep saying it until you feel completely refreshed.  Love never fails and it will help you to reshift your focus and get back on track to success.

Love- The Weapon of Mass Creation

The other day I was driving and meditating on God's love.  Then a car pulled up in front of me with a bumper sticker that read "God is the Answer" but I saw "Love is the Answer".  God is LOVE.   I am learning that when you pour love into any issue of life it will easily resolve itself.  Love never fails because God never fails.  Everything He does is inspired by love.

 When you pour love in your children they grow up secure, self-confident and happy.  When you unconditionally love your spouse, your marriage becomes

A Friendly Reminder

I was busy at work on a deadline and I tend to tunnel when I work- just block everything out and keep working for hours.  But I kept getting this little nudge inside to listen to The Power which I have on audio. It was exactly what I needed to keep me focused, balanced and inspired.  It's about 6 hours long and I even went to sleep listening to it.  How important it is for each of us to remember that love really and truly is the only path to happiness.  I have to admit that I let myself slip a little in the gratitude area.  It's so easy to get sidetracked with the less important.  Gratitude will not only keep you on track it is one of the fastest way to get in sync with the Almighty and on track to greatness.  Thank you for always keeping me on track. \o/

What Christmas Means to Me

Today I am writing this post in the comfort of my home, with the smells of Egg Nog Bread Pudding in the air my children tucked away in their room playing their latest video game gifts and my hubby napping soundly.  I am filled with a wonderful sense of peace and contentment.  Not because I was able to buy enough gifts for all of my loved ones and not because I received everything on my Xmas wish list but because I am consciously aware of the gift that I carry around in my heart every waking moment of my life. 

The goodness of God was released on that day over 2000 years ago and Jesus was born.  He became the bridge for us to gain access to all the treasures in Heaven that God wanted to shower on us His children.  He brought peace, love, joy, goodness, patience, gentleness, kindness, faithfulness and faith to this earth.  Finally, we now had the ability to live a full and abundant life.

Feeling Good- The Secret to an Amazing Life

I start my day in silence.  Enjoying the peace I feel in my heart, being one with God. I start my day acknowleging the magnificence of who I am and all of the blessings God has given me.  I focus also on what He's left in my authority.   I know that I have the power to create my world with my thoughts and feelings, so I consciously create a heavenly life starting early in the morning.  With a heart filled with joy and love I go about  focusing on all the things I love: my husband, my children, my family and friends, my job, cooking, eating :), going to the beach, banana splits, a baby's giggle, my children's sense of humor, spanish cooking, french fries, my trip to Paris with my sister, Christmas, visiting my Dad and brother, watching my children excel in basketbal and the list never really stops.  I add to it every day.
I focus on the eternal truths of God's word and use it to frame my life. I use the truth as my standard.  If an area of my life doesn't match up to the truth in God's word
