Despite the fact that some of our habits are destructive, we continue on with them like robots, not questioning why these tasks are being carried out. Remember, this is your life! You get to…

Always Rushed?

Life is hectic. But how much of the rush is caused by our own decisions? After thinking about it, most of us can readily admit this is true.

Where You Finish

It’s not where you start but where you finish that counts. Many people show up at the starting line. But at the end of a long race, few are at the finish line.  Through all the agony and suffering, these are those who refuse to quit. At the start of any race, crowds of people…

Do Something

Time management, exercise, a healthy diet; all these are great goals to set. There are so many other goals which are also worthwhile to choose from.

Take advantage while they are available because most doors will not stay open forever. Here are a few things to consider. Don’t wait for perfect timing. This is one of…

Light My Path
