Food for Thought....



Thought of the day: Style vs. Fashion.....

FASHION is defined as "a popular trend"; generally offered seasonally.

STYLE is defined as "a distinct manner of doing something"; ergo style is how one interprets & applies fashions.

CONCLUSION: Fashion is fleeting while Style is enduring. So why chase fashions, why not develop Style?

New Year.... New Outlook


"If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much."
                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                             - Jim Rohn


I just found this quote by chance, but its sentiment haunts me daily.
 
I've known for a great while now that being someone else's employee is just not my station in life. Whilst I do realize that the "come up" isn't easy and nobody makes it alone, to just permanently take up root in someone else's plan to succeed is not a desirable course of action for me. Which is why I chose to set out on my own quest for success and financial freedom.
 
So far the journey has been full of twists and turns, amazing triumphs and heartbreaking letdowns, yet I trudge ahead with a consistent determination to make it happen.
 
We are 15 days into 2013, and I find myself still wrestling with old issues. I've made real strides in some areas of opportunity, but have fallen tragically short in other areas, yet I trudge ahead.
 
I have great hopes for what this year has in store for me & all my endeavors. I release all things/actions/behaviors that serve only to sabotage my efforts. I am grateful for every benevolent act or gesture toward me. I acknowledge the greatness within me and the power I posses to bring my desires to fruition. I am open to receiving all of the goodness and great fortune that the universe has to offer me.
 
With that being said.... Here's to the new year and a new outlook!
 
Let's make 2013 one for the books....
