Linger -Key 45

            Relish the conversation, the cup of coffee, the flower garden, the view. Smell the roses. Let the dirt trickle through your fingers. Enjoy the breeze. Lie on the cool grass. Gaze at the stars. Hold hands a little longer. Taste the moment. Don’t sacrifice this special moment to what will be or what might have been. Sit quietly and just listen. Time rushes by so quickly that in our haste we will miss the part of life that is so important. We need to replenish our souls. What a wonderful, beautiful world we live in! Don’t miss it. When this moment is gone, it is gone forever. Let the laughter bathe your soul. Feel the spirit, the energy, the love, the compassion that is all around you. This moment is what we have.

Thankful Thursday – Lori

            Today is Thankful Thursday, the day we celebrate our gratitude for the people in our lives. It will make you and the ones you remember feel better. Everyone needs encouragement. Today I am thankful for Lori, the creative mind behind all the graphic designs and printing used in Say Something Nice Sunday and at First Baptist Church of Charleston. Lori is the administrative assistant to the pastor. She is the mother of two delightful daughters and still finds time to be creative. She edited and designed by little book, Say Something Nice; Be a Lifter. She is a joy to work with and is a fountain of ideas.

            Who are you thankful for today? Let him or her know about your gratitude.

Set Goals – Key 44

            What are your priorities for your life, your relationships, your work, your spiritual development? Give each of these areas of your life serious thought. Develop meaningful goals for every part of your life. Write them down or they are just wishful thinking. Put them where you can read them every morning and every night. Review and revise as life changes.  Develop action steps that move you forward. At the end of every day, ask yourself this question and answer it honestly. What have I done today that moves me toward my goal?  Setting meaningful, relevant goals is a vital aspect of self-leadership. You are not depending on a supervisor or someone else to impose them. You are in charge of you. Setting your own goals gives you a major boost on your journey.
