Furnish It Well!


"A mind, like a home, is furnished by its owner, so if one's life is cold and bare he can blame none but himself."

-- Louis L'Amour

***
How will you furnish your mind?  Will it be with thoughts of happiness, gratitude and achievement, or thoughts of sadness, lack and failure.  Unlike furnishing a home, which is limited to what you can afford, your mind is not limited.  It possesses great power and potential.  The key is too furnish it with the “right stuff.” 

If things do not appear to be going right in your life, then it is time to get rid of some of the old furnishings to make room for some new furnishings.  Remember, you are the sole designer of your life, so choose your furnishings wisely. 

It's your life: live it, love it, & celebrate it!

Actions Speak Louder than Words

“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”

John F. Kennedy

***
Actions validate our words.  It' nice to say you're appreciative of somebody or something, but words soon become hollow if they're not supported with action.   Remember people may forget what you said.  But, they will never forget the way you made them feel. 

Today, make it a point to say something nice, do something nice and be somebody nice! 

It's your life: live it, love it, & celebrate it!
