Signs.

We are always looking for signs. Promptings, affirmations, confirmations in the decisions we are to make and in the ones we have already made. Some people go so far as to find a sign in almost anything they can just to feel a boost of confidence in what they are doing when all along the sign is in you.

You know, deep down if the path you are on and the decisions you are making are for your greater good. You already know how you effect the people around you. You just have to listen and be open to what you hear.

We all have been on a path that was not right for us and did not effect ourselves or the others around us in the way that was best and we have listened, didn't like the answer so continued doing what was not right for us. So this year I am struggling and trying to gain back not only the inner voice that keeps me on track but the same one that makes me a better person and for me listening is not as much of the problem as me doing what the voice is telling me.

Staying positive in negative situations, not being consumed by my environment but being the change in the environment around me. This is my challenge this year and there are days where I truly am the change that I want to see in the world and then there are days that I am not the change but rather a product and driving force in all that is wrong with my environment. 

So here is my mantra this year..in the inspiration of Gandhi.
1. Change yourself.
2. You are in control.
3. Forgive & let go.
4. Without action, you aren't going anywhere.
5. Take care of this moment.
6. Everyone is human.
7. PERSIST.
8. See the good in people & help them.
9. Be congruent, be authentic, be your true self.
10. Continue to grow & evolve.
