[AffirmationstoDe-Stress] MORNING COFFEE

"Refuse to remain in your comfort zone." Your comfort zone feels safe, familiar and relaxing. The problem is, if you're spending too much time there you may not be growing and evolving as a woman. It takes a tremendous amount of bravery to do what is unfamiliar and uncomfortable. The good news is, the payoff is worth it. Your self esteem rises and your self confidence becomes unyielding. Challenge yourself this week. Put yourself in an uncomfortable situation on purpose. How about volunteering for a project that you would normally shy away from? Strike up a conversation with a stranger or sign up for a class to learn something new. Whatever step you take, expect to be uncomfortable but know in your heart that you're doing wonders for your well-being. ©Jane Powell     In your quiet moments, what do you think about? How far you've come, or how far you have to go? Your strengths, or your weaknesses? The best that might happen, or the worse that might come to be? In your quiet moments, do pay attention to your thoughts. Because maybe, just maybe, the only thing that needs to shift in order for you to experience more happiness, more love, and more vitality, is your way of thinking. Unknown   Worth it A life of achievement and fulfillment is a lot of trouble and inconvenience. Go to the trouble, and deal with the inconvenience, because it's the quality of your precious life that's at stake. Moving in the direction of your dreams can be complicated, challenging, risky and tedious. Jump right in and do it anyway, because your real, authentic dreams are worth it. You must pay a substantial price to live true to your highest vision of life. Yet that price is a bargain compared to the alternative of a life with meager fulfillment. Instead of avoiding the challenges and complaining about them, see those challenges for what they are. They are pathways to valuable and meaningful achievement. It's a lot of trouble to live with integrity and passion and purpose. And you are very much worth the trouble. A life that demands much of you is a life that offers the greatest richness. For in meeting those demands, you immerse yourself in all that richness.  Ralph Marston   - Dear Readers, " Morning Coffee " is a labor of love and meant to be shared with others to spread encouragement and inspiration.
