How I see this working……

I wrote these lists a few months ago, not really thinking about what I should be doing with it.  I just needed to put it on paper.  I shared it with just a few close friends, but was unsure about when to bring it onto the blog.

Now that my darling husband has arrived safely in Israel (**Yeah!**)  it makes sense to share it with you, my friendly blog reader, because I look at it every day.  It effects who I am and why I do what I do.  It helps to remind me to stay centered, balanced and focused on what really matters in my day to day life.  I hope you find it helpful as well! xoxoxo

Hierarchy for Success

1) Attitude = mental alacrity (the ability to look at a situation with acceptance)

2) Approach = with kindness and respect for all (remember you get what you give)

3) Goal = to live well, despite the distractions

4) Strategy = aim with my heart, adjust with my head, always do the best I can

5) Tactics = a) don’t wait for others to be friendly, show them how  

b) to speak well of another is a blessing to all

6) Execution = reflect a sense of gratitude

How I see this working…..

1) Desire a sense of possibility                                                            

2) Encourage compassion and accountability

3) Promote motivation, communication and education

4) Make it simple and small until it’s do-able

5) Recognize enjoyment

6) Get a rhythm

Easing Minds

1) Stay on schedule and focus on taking care of basic needs

2) Know when to walk away (Don’t waste time focusing energy on what doesn’t work)

3) Add in YOU time to your agenda (Your own happiness is the best gift you can give anyone)

4) Communicate the problem and the plan with your family and trust friends (No Drama Allowed)

5) Encourage questions (An opportunity is a challenge met)

6) Let everyone help (Working toward a common goal yields huge dividends in reducing anxiety)

7) Look for lessons (It’s how you face the hard times that really define your influence)
