Intentions

How do we turn our dreams into a reality? We approach life knowing our purpose and tapping into the power of intention as well as moving past the fear.

When we set an intention and follow through with it into action, ultimately we are involved in the grand act of conscious self-creation.

By paying attention to the positive qualities of heart and mind that you are developing as a result of sticking to your goal, you give yourself greater incentive to hang in there.

Recognizing and acknowledging our success gives us the encouragement to try again, because we're aware of what we've done right, we have more confidence that we can do it again.

You've been doing well and then something threw a monkey wrench into your formula for success. Make no mistake -- setbacks suck. Time for the 4As.

Do you know what works for you to keep your momentum? Knowing what's works for you is key. There are no "one size fits all" solutions -- each of us sustains motivation differently.

Recognizing you've blown it is progress! Whether you move forward has everything to do with how you treat yourself once you notice you've blown it. The trick is to learn from the experience.

The power that each of us has in our families, particularly as mothers, is incredible. We shape the world view, the biases, the sense of understanding and compassion in our children.
