Let's be happy with the small blessings that we have and thank God for it. Life is already the greatest gift He has given so we must thankful about that. In addition, there's nothing wrong of being ambitious as long as we know how to make it to reality.San Diego Wedding Photographerhttp://www.jessicafreyphotographyblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6196506197882002471.post-47129715956234249272012-01-17T11:45:40.014-05:002012-01-17T11:45:40.014-05:00Appreciate it...Kimberley..Great work and supa lik...Appreciate it...Kimberley..Great work and supa likes...:-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6196506197882002471.post-51696657997044707462012-01-17T08:34:19.231-05:002012-01-17T08:34:19.231-05:00Gosh...thank you everyone.

This is exactly...Wonderful post indeed Kimberley! <br /><br />This is exactly why an event like this has been a dream of mine for the past year. So grateful for the many folks who made the time to invest in personal renewal! <br /><br />Thank you for always being "open source dialogue". As a leader in our community you have no idea how much this inspires others. Said someone from the retreat "just knowing there are ED's out there like Kimberley has given me hope". <br /><br /><br />I've started my own list today! Thanks again,<br /><br /><br />Paul NazarethPaul Nazarethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02916802238599116407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6196506197882002471.post-7879652602779258682012-01-15T19:29:51.765-05:002012-01-15T19:29:51.765-05:00"We must also make time to pause every day an..."We must also make time to pause every day and be grateful for small miracles. It is kind of like putting your own oxygen mask on first, the world needs us to be well. "<br /><br />I love this analogy!<br /><br />I, too, came across this technique before, back in 2007, and it changed my life. I feel it was the life lesson that took me from adolescent into adult. I used to be very 'in my own head' but after reading The Secret (LOL!) where this trick is described, I became the positive, happy person I hope people see today! It's definitely how I feel :)<br /><br />I think the reason it works is because it demonstrates, like nothing else, the fact that your happiness is a power that lies within you and no where else. Happiness (contentment) is a daily choice and for me that realization was life changing. <br /><br />When I first started, I would lie in bed for a few minutes each morning after waking up and start my list in my head. (It ALWAYS began with either puppies or ponies) it would only take a minute for a big smile to spread across my face to start the day - and after a week or so, I didn't even need to make a list anymore - I would just wake up smiling! Our mind can do amazing things..<br /><br />Love this post Kimberley :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6196506197882002471.post-64977712182580482522012-01-14T14:04:26.499-05:002012-01-14T14:04:26.499-05:00So lovely.
