Dear readers,
Everybody dreams! The question is: what do we do with our dreams? Do we keep dreaming or do we act upon those dreams? I feel that a lot of people (including myself) are afraid of making that first step. They are afraid they will fail. But if I think about it, isn't failure a step in the right direction? After failing, you are wiser then you were before, because now you know what you did wrong and you can learn from that mistake. Maybe we just think too big and too ahead of things. Maybe all we really need to do, is make that first step! Knowing that the first step wasn't that scary after all, we can focus on the next step and the one after that...
To help you with achieving your goals I copied a quote by Alan Loy McGinnis, so that you will know what to do when thoughts like "I can't do this" cross your mind.
"Focus on your potential instead of your limitations."
What are your goals? And are you already working on achieving those or is something holding you back from doing so? I would love to hear it!
Love, Melissa
"Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him."
I read this quote on TheDailyLove.com and wanted to share it with you, because I think so many of us (including myself at times) tend to stick to negative energy, while we all know it is SO NOT worth it. I can't explain why we waist time and energy on things or on people that are negative factors in our lives, but we do. Maybe if we just read this quote in the mornings, it reminds us not to do so when coming across something or somebody that we consider a negative factor.
Let's all thank the wise Henry David Thoreau! :)
Love, Melissa
Dear readers,
I've been following http://www.thedailylove.com/ for a few weeks now and I'm loving it! It's like a multivitamin for your soul. I think everybody should subscribe themselves for a daily update; the world would be a much better place. For instance, how true is this quote:
“The way you treat yourself sets the standard for others.”
And how about this one?
“Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.”
This one is for all of you readers:
“To be a star, you must shine your own light, follow your own path, and don’t worry about the darkness, for that is when the stars shine brightest.”
I hope 'The Daily Love' will be as inspirational to you as it is to me!
Love, Melissa
