Beginning Your Day
Gratitude Forgiveness and Humility
Begin this day with thoughts and feelings of gratitude, respect, appreciation and humility. It is very important to start each day with these feelings. Sit quietly, close your eyes and feel the feelings of gratitude for your sight, your hearing, your heart and your lungs. Become thankful for waking with a sound mind and for your physical, mental and emotional health. Become thankful for the most important gift, your life. Start your day with positive thoughts and with forgiveness. Start this day with forgiving yourself and all others for hurtful words, actions, activities and behaviors. Begin to create balance within your life by leaving yesterday fully behind and starting with a renewed mindset each day.

Empowerment
Empowerment begins by simply trying to express gratitude each day. This effort means to simply become thankful for your life, health, mind, and body each day. Empowerment is each day simply trying to forgive yourself and others for past negative thoughts, words, actions, activities and behaviors. Empowerment begins by simply trying to create and establish a new mindset, one that will allow YOU to practice forgiveness each morning and night. This effort to empower yourself begins by simply trying to become humble, simply trying to create balance within your life, simply trying to focus on your goals, simply trying to have faith in yourself and finally simply trying to put forth the effort to work on YOU “the individual within.” Working on the individual within is similar to having a garden. Your Empowerment begins by tilling the fertile ground and planting seeds within. Empowerment begins with the effort of simply trying. Utilizing the tools of Empowerment within the process is equivalent to nurturing the seed within with water and light. Your daily effort provides the nutrients and most importantly kills the weeds that have grown or that will surely grow within your mind. From your simple thoughts and efforts, the seeds of greatness within YOU will begin to grow, blossom and develop into the special and most unique parts of YOU (your natural talents, gifts and abilities). As YOU continue to simply try to work on yourself the unique parts, your talents, gifts and abilities will soon become visible on the outside YOU. Begin to put forth the effort to empower yourself today, each day and everyday one day at a time.
