Time is the most valuable commodity that we have....

We need to maximize it by doing the things that will help us to reach our ultimate goals. Because of the change in my approach which has been caused by a handful of "squeaky wheels," it is no longer a good use of my time to continue to do some of the things that I was doing previously. THIS WAS A TOUGH LESSON TO SWALLOW!! Why?? Because what was working for me in the past just isn’t working for me today.. It’s that simple.

Have you been tested?

Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself, without comparing himself to somebody else.

Is that so??

Old minds are like old horses, you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.

Grounded

Be practical as well as generous in your ideals. Keep your eyes on the stars, and remember to keep your feet on the ground.

(tr)

What is your example??

Nothing is so infectious as example...People will never improve unless they look to some standard or example higher and better than themselves.

Are you in the people business?

Successful people are very clear about who they are and what they want. We are in the people business, no matter what we do or where we do it.

How do you measure up?

The people you love, and who love you, are the real measure of how you are doing as a human being.

What is yours?

True happiness and fulfillment come when you feel that you are making a valuable contribution to your world?

Think of yourself as you wish to be, not as you are today.

You can see what is going on inside of you by looking at what is going on around you.

What do you FEAR??

Fear not tomorrow. GOD is already there. Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a know GOD. So many people are so filled with fear that they go through life running from something that isn't even after them. Most people believe their doubts and doubts their beliefs. Do like the old saying and "feed your faith and watch your doubts starve to death".

Are you a WINNER ??

A Winner is someone who recognizes their GOD given talents, works their tail off to develop them into skills, and then uses theses skills to accomplish their goals.

~~ History ~~

Take a stand for what's right. Raise hell and make a change. You may not always be popular, but you'll be part of something larger and bigger and greater than yourself. Besides, making history is cool don't you think?

Anyone that knows me knows this true. I will not compromise my morals or my values to please anyone else. People today must take a stand for what they believe in. Besides being popular is overrated! :~)

Ask yourself......

Have you been kind today???? Make kindness your daily modus operandi and change your world.

Have you taken chances lately?

Our lives improve only when we take chances ~~ and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves.

Nothing can

stop a person with the right mental attitude from achieving his/her goal. Nothing on earth can help a person with the wrong mental attitude.

CREATIVITY

is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

Let it go....

Some people can down right mean and bitchy... I know I seen that side of someone today and I must say it came as quite a shock. I keep reminding myself that there are some people who are jealous with envy and have a lack of self confidence. Its a shame really because all they have to do is get a good mind set with goals and follow them through. They must remember also that there is no I in team!!!

Good Intentions Aren't Good Enough

Unless you do something beyond what you have already done, you will will never grow. Every mediocre person has good intentions. Most of the people who sit around and wait for the harvest haven't planted anything. The average man doesn't want much and usually gets even less.One action is more valuable than a thousand good intentions.

Are you a LEADER?

You are only qualified to lead to the degree that you are willing to serve. If you are not willing to serve, you are not qualified to lead. To be mediocre is to drift, to be a leader is to steer!

Today I will.......

* Leave someone a little better than I found them.
* Tackle a bigger problem than me.
* Make myself valuable to somebody.
* Do at least 3 things that will take me out of my comfort zone.
* Compliment 3 people.

Have you?

Only if you have been in the deepest valley can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.

Rewards

The most rewarding things you do in life are often the ones that look like they cannont be done.

So True

When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we often do not see the ones which open for us.

Just a Thought

SOONER OR later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, nor the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, nor the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of a memory.

Loss of our Best Friend

Looking back on the memory of the dance we shared, beneath the stars above. For a moment all the world was right, how was I to know that you'd ever say goodbye?And now I'm glad I didn't know the way it all would end, the way it all would go. Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance.
The Dance - (Garth Brooks)

Max your Dad and I would never miss the dance. Today is a week ago that you were called home. You see Max was our first fur baby. Even though if you ask my husband that was his baby boy and the heir to his thrown! Max filled our lives with joy, happiness and the love he returned was unconditional. He was such a handsome little man; and he was always a happy boy. He loved to play and watch tv. There is not a place in our home that we can't see Max waiting for us. I have been reminiscing all day about his memory. We have 4 fur babies and we love 'em all but there will always be a special place in our hearts for our first fur baby. We love you Buddy and we will never forget you... No words can describe the loss and grief that your Dad and I are experiencing since you left.

Max, If I could have you back for just one day.

Through the yard we'd play..

I promise I'd give it my very best,

I promise buddy, we wouldn't rest

We'd play constantly, having fun,

We'd enjoy the warmth of the sun,

I'd give you my everything,

my love would never fade,

I promise, Max, things would be OK,
So long for now, my best friend.

I promise you Max, my heart will never mend.
We Love you "Alexander Maxwell Elder" until we meet again.

Until then, All our love, We send...

Mom & Dad
