Thanks for the reminder, Danielle (Connie, I love that!). I had a kick-in-the-ass call from the Universe on Friday, reminding me exactly that--that no one is going to make me, be me, except me.

Listening to Jack Canfield's Success Principles at the gym, I heard him say last night "no one is going to do pushups for you, no one is going to ... the important things, you have to do for yourself."

Oh yeah, and also from a fabulous handbag maker, Carol Hearty, a line she puts on each of her labels: An interesting life is a choice.

LOVE that.

Thanks for the simple reminder! I'm going to print this and put it on my fridge!
I tend to get blah and out of sorts, kind of 'waiting' for something to change outside of myself to make me perk up....big mistake. When I finally get with it and start handling my "business" I feel empowered and happy. It truly is all up to me and I want my two college-aged sons to know this much sooner than I!

And when are you putting these into print production again?!? I think i NEED this one framed, hung and starring at me - among other truth bombs! Thanks D!

working on a postcard line as we type!

great truism! I was in a down mood and just as i was looking through my mails i was guided here.thanks for reminding that it's up to us-whatever we do,whatever our reactions,whatever our attitude everything is up to you!
thank you

Just checked out your interview over at The Sassy Minx, where I was interviewed a few weeks ago. It was an excellent interview and I really enjoyed reading more about you. I love the truism above too. Fabulous and oh-so-true!
