So let's say you realize that you are never going to be a 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. person. You're not cut out for that sort of typical work environment. The benefit might be that if you embrace that and say I need to be self-employed or I need to be doing more project-oriented work. Identify the benefits - I'd be more productive. I'd be happier. The people around me would be happier because my mood would be better. When you identify the benefits of accepting the behavior or habit, you actually give leverage to it and give yourself a better chance of sticking with it.

Manage your mind. When we direct our thoughts and words toward the outcome we most desire, we ignite grace.

Our thoughts, words and actions produce feelings; and these feelings become the currency with which we produce our life experiences.

Lean back into the arms of grace.

It's amazing what eliminating energy drains can do to our mood. Remember how good you felt when you finally went through your closet and cleaned out the old clothes that you were sure you'd wear again someday?

Today I share my abundance with someone who needs a gift of kindness.

Leaders stand out. Good leaders succeed. Great leaders make a difference in the world.
