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…

""Teach me how to trust."
I have an appointment today. Since I scheduled it, I have not attempted to determine the reason for this meeting. There is enough to do today without bringing on tomorrow's worries.
Speculation tried to creep into my thoughts. I dismissed them immediately. 
"I will walk in balance" today, for my thoughts are on today. I have enough to do without crowding my day with speculation."

"It is the self talk that I have afterwards that gives me trouble.
 I wish I didn't rehearse or ruminate on the work that was done after receiving the green light to accomplish it. It's an area in my life to continue improving."

Robert R Kochel replied to Mark "Lefty" Holencik's discussion Lakota Prayer
"Teach me to trust my inner knowing. To trust my inner knowing means to be willing to believe in decisions that were made that didn't work out and decisions made that proved to be an improvement.
 The single most important part of knowing something before acting on it is the elapsing of time to mature the thought.
I was a jonny on the spot kind of person in this area of my life. And it was fear related. I always regretted the leap without being properly prepared with the facts.
Inner knowing…"

""Maybe I should consult the weaker ones first before the stronger ones have a say."
That reminded me of what John told me about discounting liars. John said, "The truth is the truth. Even if it comes from the mouth of a liar.""

"Teach me how to trust my heart- stood out to me today.
Then, I thought of a saying about not trusting your heart. I knew it was something to settle. Today I am going to be more intentional about honoring my heart, - I will feel and Sense the heart and its creativity."

""My Mind"
This morning, I said to myself, "Your mind is stopping you." Then I thought, is it really? I went through my thoughts up to that conclusion.  
I discovered that my mind was telling me to get moving. Spring water is low. If you do not do it now, it will be the middle of the week at an inconvenient time. 
The Great Mystery is teaching me that I can trust my mind. It is the self-talk that I have afterwards that gives me trouble. 
I am off to get the spring water. I will enjoy the trip…"

"I always thought I was making an informed decision. But I only used the information I thought was important. 
It was definitely not an informed group conscience. "

"Teach me how to trust my intuition.
The two areas in my life that lacked intuition were a relationship with a woman and managing money well.
 I let fear in my life used as guidance to direct my thinking. It could be whatever, envious of what others have or even plain boredom and needing to act out. Pretty much any form of discontentment. I would do it and I knew it was going to hurt. Sometimes it was unconscious and thus unguided.
It amazes me every day the combinations of senses used to make…"

"Teach me how to trust. My mind. I remember not long ago people were saying to "throw that first idea away it doesn't count." I followed that advice for all decisions big and small for a long time. Then one day they said "okay, you can start using your first thoughts now." What a confusing time for me.
I didn't understand that as I healed and got to know myself I was getting equipped to make better decisions from a reliance on the Great Mystery. I wasn't being driven by resentment and fear and…"

""With the passing of each glorious Sun.
Glorious implies that yesterday was a day filled with gratitude. 
Nothing in this prayer is telling me to rehearse yesterday's fears. My feet are planted on the ground, and I am connected to the earth. This means that without shoes, my feet will touch the earth today."

"Teach me how to trust my heart. I used to make bad decisions where the heart is concerned. I am grateful that I don’t so much anymore. I learned to incorporate all the senses and connections inside of me to make better trusted heart decisions.I made a decision to play with the dogs as soon as I come home. I pay small if any attention to them when I get here and feel bad for doing it.The last couple of days have been a change for the good. Learning how to trust my heart allows me to pay…"

"The Blessings of My Spirit.
How important is it to Remember... Today We shared about losing a post.   One forgot what he said and another said he had remembered what he said.       " I thought how that is a blessing to remember".         Today I reflect back on remembering what it means to be true to one self.   To be care free of worry and anxiety about the future.   To be child like.     I remember what it feels like on a early September day to go to school.    I remember going camping and…"

""My inner knowing"'
I reflected that I need to watch where my inner knowing was centered in my body. Today, my inner knowing was centered in confusion. My inner knowing needed discernment to move forward.
I have a project with a deadline that is looking increasingly unattainable. I have been looking at the forest, and not a single tree. I laid out the most productive course to take. I kept hitting roadblocks, attributing this to the learning curve of the new product.
The last couple of days, a…"
