[AffirmationstoDe-Stress] MORNING COFFEE

"Winning isn't everything, but wanting to is."   Perseverance is the golden key to being successful in anything you do. Be it losing weight, improving your relationships or even starting a business. It's a matter of hanging on long after others have quit.   Perseverance overcomes almost everything. When you fall, perseverance tells you to get up. When you're defeated, perseverance tells you to try again. When you feel like quitting, perseverance doesn't let you.   If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again. Therein lies the secret to being a winner.   ©Jane Powell     As you travel through life there are always those times When decisions just have to be made, When the choices are hard, and solutions seem scarce, And the rain seems to soak your parade.   There are some situations where all you can do Is simply let go and move on, Gather your courage and choose a direction That carries you toward a new dawn.   So pack up your troubles and take a step forward The process of change can be tough, But think about all the excitement ahead   There might be adventures you never imagined Just waiting around the next bend, And wishes and dreams just about to come true In ways you can't yet comprehend!   Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring from new things As you challenge your status quo, And learn there are so many options in life,   Perhaps you'll go places you never expected And see things that you've never seen, Or travel to fabulous, faraway worlds And wonderful spots in between!   Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring And somebody special who's there To help you stay cantered and listen with interest To stories and feelings you share.   Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends Are supportive of all that you do, And believe that whatever decisions you make, They'll be the right choices for you.   So keep putting one foot in front of the other, And taking your life day by day… There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road - Don't look back! You're not going that way!   Thanks Marcella     Let go of your ego   Your ego won't solve any problems. Your ego won't convince anyone of anything.   Your ego won't make you stronger or more skilled or more capable or more knowledgeable. Mostly, your ego will just get in the way of your true essence.   So choose to tap into your authentic power by choosing to let go of the concerns of your ego. Step purposefully beyond those superficial concerns and step up to a dramatically higher level of effectiveness.   Let go of your ego, and many of your fears and anxieties dissolve. Let go of your ego, and the positive possibilities become more numerous, more powerful and more accessible.   Without ego constantly dragging you down, you can focus on what truly matters. You'll find that one of the most powerful things you can do for yourself is to get past your concerns for yourself.   Let go of your small ego and see life's big, wonderful, valuable picture. Let go of your ego, and let your true beauty and goodness soar.   Ralph Marston   - Dear Readers, " Morning Coffee " is a labor of love and meant to be shared with others to spread encouragement and inspiration.
