LET ME LISTEN TO ME AND NOT TO THEM
-Gertrude Stein
This is the simplest and the most profound quote yet. We all know in our hearts what is right for ourselves. But, too often we allow the thoughts, opinions, judgments and values of others guide us. Our biggest challenge in life is to be able to hear our own voice! Our second is to honor it!
Practice separating out others voices from your own!

I’M NOT AFRAID OF STORMS FOR I’M LEARNING TO SAIL MY SHIP.”
-Louisa May Alcott:
I tell my clients that every heartache is a lesson towards a truer heart, every challenge overcome is an amazing step to knowing your higher self. As a sailor myself I know that I must know my sailboat and have the tools to deal with the weather that changes at every moment….and expect the unexpected! But if I choose to stay in fear and not gather the tools to navigate me through my future… then I will surely fear the unknown.
May you all sail through life with the wind, the waves and the weather as your friend.

PERFECT IS BORING. IN RECOGNIZING OUR FLAWS, WE FIND OUT WHAT MAKES US INTERESTING.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.
