I can, and I do. 


I can, and I do. 

In everything I set out to achieve, I am always focused on doing my very best.

I have the power to succeed within me; it is part of who I am and runs through everything I do. My power is unstoppable.12386430866?profile=RESIZE_400x

I know in my soul that I have the ability to meet my goals and to exceed them. My goal is just the beginning of my full potential, and I constantly amaze myself at all I can achieve. 

I can achieve anything, and I do every time I try.

I see that the responsibility for my life lies with me. I am the only one who can build and create the life I dream of. My future is in my hands, and I am responsible for my own happiness.

This is a concept that excites me. I see potential all around me in everything I do, and I make a choice to grab this with both hands. 

My life is within…

My Past No Longer Dictates My Future


My past no longer dictates my future.  

I have grown from past experiences. The hardships from years past have molded me into the strong, independent individual I am today. 

I am thankful for the necessary life lessons my past mistakes teach me. Mistakes are a part of life,12385490064?profile=RESIZE_710x and personal experience is truly the best way to learn. I now enjoy wisdom because of my past mistakes. 

My decisions in the past are irrelevant to the person I wish to become. My future is in my hands. I am the master of what I do with my life and the approach I take in order to reach my goals. 

The future is a…

There is No Excuse for Failure Anymore


We are in a period of time where, for many years, there have been legitimate reasons for people to think their goals were unattainable. But that has been forever altered, and the excuses we once clung to have dissipated with myriad solutions and options available to us. 

It does not matter what goal you have been striving to reach –financial success, weight loss, or something else – you have what you need now to get things done, as long as you are willing to do them. 

If you think about it, this has always been true. The biggest obstacle to our success is us. Our mindset, our refusal to find the answers and consistently do the work is what holds us back. 

But instead of accepting responsibility, we tend…

Dehydrating String Beans


I am experimenting with a new way of dehydrating string beans for long-term storage. I have always used electric dehydrators to preserve my fruits and vegetables. Since 2011, I have been using this method of food preservation, and it has worked well. Dehydrating food has many advantages. The main advantages are buying in bulk and when the item is at a low price.

I am always trying to improve production and lower costs. This year, I made a solar dehydrator. It was a great success on both counts. The only disadvantage is that it is limited to the summer months.  Researching how to dehydrate my foods without electricity I read about using a needle and thread to accomplish this. …12290421695?profile=RESIZE_584x

Kaizen is 'continuous improvement' and is a popular subject among businesses and managers. Kaizen means that the best way to affect significant change in an organization is to encourage lots of small, incremental changes that can improve workflow, profit margins, and everything else. By continually improving in small ways, you can create change throughout your whole business, resulting in much more efficient and effective operations.9410126664?profile=RESIZE_400x

But kaizen works best when it is applied at the individual level. In other words, if you can help your staff work better on their own and improve the way they approach problems and their regular workload, you can make your entire organization more effective. A chain is as strong as its weakest link, and a business is the sum of its employees.…

If you genuinely want to be your best and have a happy and healthy life, you need to learn how to set boundaries. Boundaries are being clear about what your limits are, and they are necessary to ensure you don't get overwhelmed by the demands of other people. Without limitations, you are likely to be overburdened, stressed, and resentful, and it is up to you to set and maintain your limits.  You are the only one responsible for your happiness and…

"That is true and it's me being lazy.  I find I can only do best each day to the best of my ability.  I often feel being me is enough or doing enough is good but the pressures of life in general take us away from what we as individuals want to do.  I right now just thought I want to quit my job and I have thought about this for months because of the environment I am working around.  It's unhealthy.  I thought if I could just find a different job or finish a book than make residual income I would…"

"Today I am thankful for being able to make time to read the one thing that matters.   It all comes back to my Peace of Mind.  God is in all my affairs today, he is showing me more each day.  There's a job opportunity and a Van that I am Peace of Minding right now about -  Peace of Mind includes all other good things.
i am going to work today and keeping my mind focused on God and how I can be of service today and do the extra.   Every thing else is working out.

""Just Enough"
Giving "just enough" is not a good business plan for success.
The best business plan for success is always giving more than you are being paid for. Or giving more than is expected of you.
When I was broke, I did not count the money I was making or what bills I could pay. I was always thinking about how to improve my product that day, not some day in the future when I had more to give. I gave more that day. 
My customers or my employer did not always see these things. Most times…"

"It is personal, but just enough that the audience will contact me for further information after the fact.  I don't feel it's generic.  I have also included a method and certain supplement combinations that can be effective once used properly.  This has made me think.  I appreciate the questions and insight.  My goal besides having the book is to present these methods as a teaching tool for lactation support.  
I bought a book called cook one day eat all week.  It's a gluten free, milk free…"

"Manuals are books. They can be shorter. They can be longer.
Are you planning to keep it generic and impersonal?
Or are you going to use personal examples how to implement your subject. Also examples of surprises and personal awareness that happens.
When I buy a manuel/book and it just gives me the steps, I  know I wasted my money. I will breeze through it too see if there is anything in there I can use. 
I am not everyone. So I know people like that type of manual/book. 
You need to figure out…"

Erica commented on Mark "Lefty" Holencik's blog post I can, and I do. 
"My understanding is that the Manuel is directive and short with no chapters exactly.  I thought a book has chapters and is longer .  The Manuel I am writing is directive and instructional to achieve the best outcome.  You are right I have to complete it first which I am only 50% done.  I know I will finish it in Gods timing.  I just have lots of thought and get lost in my thinking. "

"This is a self-deception of a deadly kind.
I was prejudiced to what prayer was. Emmet Fox is telling me that by telling myself that I do not pray much, I am living in a self-constructed prison. This prison is cutting me off from everything but myself. 
I needed to expand my understanding of prayer. Prayer is anything that comes from my heart."

"Do not worry or think about publishing. Do not submit it to anyone. Do not worry about who will edit it. Stay focused on writing the content of your book.
I did not know there was a difference between a manual and a book."

"That is great information! Thank you! I have a Manuel really not a book.  Does that change how the process goes? I have illustrations as well that I drew.  I have a cover page with two photographs.  I have graphs and tracking sheets as well.  A family member gave me a name of the person they used 2 years ago to edit their book they published with Hostoria publishing company.  When I looked on their website they said it takes them 1-3 years to have a book published by them once they except your…"

"Good. 
Copyrights and publishing are the easy parts of this process. Copyright costs a couple of dollars and takes about a month if I remember correctly. Publishing takes a couple of days.
Editing is the hardest part. Finding someone to read and make grammar and content suggestions can be daunting. I use the premium version of Grammarly for grammar, word suggestions, and sentence structure. It is an invaluable tool that makes me look intelligent.
Copyscaping your content is important. Copyscape…"

"It has been a month and the phrase , " I can can achieve anything , and I do everytime I try." Has encouraged me along with my partners insight and your suggestion of writing articles.  Slowly I am constructing a manual.  I have a rough draft.  I would love to copyright and publish it.  Any suggestions please advise.  I also have starting taking a certification course and constructed a business plan .  I am focusing on the manual predominately.  "

"And truly, peace of mind is the one thing that matters.
 
Today I am grateful for the opportunity to live a life better than I can imagine.  Having a new attitude and outlook on life, I am thankful for today and the Sunshine.   
When I am praying and engulfed in Gods presence I have the strength to go through whatever is happening.   
 
Peace of Mind comes when I pray and I turn my spirit over to God.  Today I don’t have to let outside circumstances dictate my Peace of Mind.    By having a…"

"Good one Matt. Punks question authority and threaten the status quo. I'll continue being a punk in that aspect.  Some people get triggered when new ideas and ways of thinking are presented, and being acted on. Especially when the opposition is in the right and their pride won't let them swallow it (I've been on both sides 🙂). That's where I have Peace of Mind today.  I let them be triggered and can explore their side of it as well and have my Peace. "

yesterday I was helping put up a 30' flag pole.  When I arrived there was nothing in place to help keep the pole stable as the concrete cured.  So I made some suggestions to help everyone stay safe during the process.   Most of my suggestions where used that helped people stay safe as best as the condition where.

"Miracles Become Commonplace
A side effect of practicing the state of Peace of Mind is a constant flow of miracles.  What are miracles.”
Miracle: an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs
the healing miracles described in the Gospels.
This definition does not coincide with what Jesus taught. Jesus told us that he did not have any special gifts or talents. He told us that we would do these things and still greater things.
We use miracles as an explanation for things…"

"The tragedy closes a door only to open the door to a new opportunity. Yesterday, I had a sewer line clog. I talked to the tenant and explained what we would do to resolve the issue. 
I walked through the issue with possible causes and fixes. Then it occurred to me that I may not have the resources to resolve the issue in a timely manner, and I may have to call a plumber to take care of this for me. this may be an opportunity to develop a relationship with a local plumber with a service team to…"
