Giving appreciations, praise, and gratitudes feels good and puts good vibes in the environment.

The process of setting a goal, learning the necessary steps to achieve it, and giving it your best until you've mastered it will generate high self-esteem and pride. Those are feelings associated with joy.

The key to managing fear and life's tasks is to take the time daily to get organized.

Making sweeping statements such as 'no sweets ever again' has never worked before, and it's not going to work now. You'll get quickly overwhelmed and punt on any positive momentum you created.

Action is your power pusher to new behaviors that open your heart to freedom.

Along with bathing and eating your veggies, releasing emotions needs to become part of our daily routines.

Across the board, it's infinitely more effective to praise actions that you want to encourage than to punish those you disapprove of.
