An authentic life is the most personal form of worship. Everyday life has become my prayer.

New Year's Day. A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Today carve out a quiet interlude for yourself in which to dream, pen in hand. Only dreams give birth to change.

Your life at this exact moment is a direct result of choices you made once upon a time. Thirty minutes or 30 year ago.

Consider the track record of your naysayers. How many dreams have they successfully brought into this world?

Today, and everyday, take as your personal mantra: I am what I am and what I am is wonderful.

We can then offer the universe the gift of our grateful hearts.

Sometimes the tasks we take on seem virtually impossible. But amazingly, when we harness the incredible power of the subconscious in our lives, we can accomplish whatever we set out to do, no matter what obstacles we have to overcome.
