Have you ever made a list then.....

      How many times have you made a LIST then you get to the store and REALIZE that you FORGOT TO BRING THE LIST?

      Have you ever spent a long time making your LIST but after you shop and get home you REALIZE that YOU FORGOT to write the MOST IMPORTANT PART?

     It is hard to REMEMBER EVERYTHING on your LIST which is why you write a LIST but sometimes you have to REALIZE that you need to CHECK YOUR LIST TWICE.

      I had been gathering everything to have fun with my grandkids PAINTING ROCKS and as I start gathering stuff guess what I forgot?

      I FORGOT THE ROCKS. 

      So now I have to GET SOME ROCKS so WE can ENJOY painting ROCKS.

       What was the last thing that YOU FORGOT?

       I have had many PLANNED FAMILY DINNERS that SUDDENLY CHANGED when I REALIZE that I had FORGOTTEN ONE OF MY INGREDIENTS OFF MY LIST TO BUY.

      Sometimes you just got to GO WITH THE FLOW on your LIFE'S JOURNEY because LIFE is full of TWISTS AND TURNS. 

       

      

     

When you WANT TO KNOW then.....

       If you WANT TO KNOW then you have to do what you got TO DO and LOOK FOR THE ANSWER to KNOW.

      If you WANT TO ENJOY something then you have to ENJOY IT whenever you can ENJOY IT.

      You WON'T GET everything that you DREAM OF but if you WANT ANY OF YOUR DREAMS to COME TRUE then YOU WILL HAVE TO HAVE DREAMS.

       You WON'T APPRECIATE what you DO HAVE unless you LOOK AT what you have and BE THANKFUL that you have it.

      When I WANT TO CRAFT something I WANT to ENJOY IT so I HAVE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT the CRAFT so that I CAN GET ALL THE SUPPLIES to BE ABLE TO DO IT.

       You CAN DO MANY THINGS during your LIFE'S JOURNEY but if YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO IT then TO DO IT CORRECTLY then you have to FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO IT CORRECTLY.

       I thought PAINTING ON ROCKS would be PAINT AND GO but after WATCHING the GO ROCK GO ROCK PAINTING on Social media I REALIZED that I NEEDED CERTAIN TYPES OF PAINT.

      Which EXPLAINS WHY the ROCK I PAINTED that I left outside was RUINED AFTER IT GOT WET with the RAIN.

      LOOKING UP WHAT YOU NEED will HELP YOU HAVE WHAT YOU NEED to DO IT.

      

      

You can still ENJOY IT but....

     If you STARVE yourself to lose weight but then after you lose it you go back to eating the same way then you gain more weight then you were before because you were so STARVING.

     If you are SAVING MONEY then remember  that you can still spend a little cash for something but you CAN'T SPEND MORE than you NORMALLY HAVE BEEN.

     When your house GETS FULL of things you have bought over your life's journey then you KNOW that you CANT KEEP BUYING things even if you LIKE THEM because you have NO WHERE TO PUT IT.

    When you REALIZE that the CHOICES YOU MAKE are YOUR CHOICE ALONE then just make sure that you ENJOY A LITTLE and STICK TO YOUR STANDARDS to STAY ON TRACK.

     Sometimes you just have to CHANGE what you USED TO DO so that THINGS CAN POSITIVELY CHANGE like YOU WANT THEM TO. 

     You can ENJOY IT if you WOULD APPRECIATE ENJOYING WHATEVER YOU DO HAVE.

     Even if your glass is half full it can still QUENCH YOUR THIRST if YOU TAKE A DRINK.

     

LEARNING takes DOING something so you can LEARN something

     If you never TRY to DO IT then you WON'T KNOW if you CAN DO IT.

     So if you want to at least KNOW if you CAN DO IT then TRY IT so that YOU WILL KNOW if you CAN DO IT. 

     If you always wanted to LEARN SOMETHING you CAN'T SAY that you WOULD but you just CAN'T with total HONESTY if you NEVER TRIED TO DO IT.

     If you want to KNOW if you are GOOD AT COOKING then you HAVE TO COOK before you will KNOW if YOU CAN COOK GOOD FOOD.

     And even when you THINK that you are PAST THE TIME TO DO IT just remember that it is ONLY TOO LATE IF YOU DON'T DO IT.

     You LEARN what you ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO DO and whatever you choose TO DO IS UP TO YOU.

     If you WON'T TRY IT then ADMIT that YOU DON'T WANT TO and choose to DO WHAT is IMPORTANT TO YOU.

     Lots of people may try to get you to DO WHAT THEY DO but LET THEM BE THEM and YOU BE YOU. 

      But you REALIZE that LEARNING what is IMPORTANT TO YOU is YOU LEARNING what YOU NEED TO LEARN to be the BEST YOU THAT YOU CAN BE.

     

     

PICK A HABIT YOU WANT then ENJOY DOING IT

       If you WANT GOOD HABITS then PICK a GOOD HABIT that YOU WANT and START DOING IT WHENEVER YOU CAN.

       Every day you will have things you ENJOYED DOING but unfortunately you WON'T ENJOY EVERY MOMENT.

      At the END OF EVERY DAY take a moment to LIST THREE POSITIVE THINGS ABOUT THAT DAY that HAPPENED. 

      Then YOU WILL KNOW that at THE END OF EACH DAY there will be THREE POSITIVE THINGS that WILL MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD about TODAY. 

      Those around you WILL NOTICE how much more PEACEFUL YOU ARE when you FIND A HABIT that BRINGS YOU PEACE OF MIND.

      And MAKE YOUR HABITS be ONLY WHAT YOU DECIDE no matter WHAT ANYONE ELSE THINKS would MAKE YOU HAPPY.

      EVERY PERSONAL HABIT that YOU HAVE during your LIFE'S JOURNEY will BRING YOU PEACE OF MIND whenever YOU DO IT.

     And the MORE GOOD HABITS YOU have well......the MORE HAPPIER YOU WILL BE.

      

     

It feels good when you are RIGHT but.....

       It FEELS good to be RIGHT but sometimes the RIGHT THING to do to have PEACE is to KNOW that you WERE RIGHT but KNOW That sometimes FIGHTING to PROVE that you WERE RIGHT is WRONG.

       THE Common PEACEFULNESS that you are FEELING because you WERE RIGHT could CAUSE EVERYONE UNHAPPINESS if you argue when you try to PROVE YOU WERE RIGHT. 

      All that REALLY MATTERS is that LUCKILY YOU WERE RIGHT and EVERYTHING TURNED OUT ALL RIGHT.

      Just TELL YOURSELF that YOU WERE RIGHT and if THEY took the time to see how things TURNED OUT then they would KNOW IT TOO.....HAHAHA 

       If you WON'T BE HAPPY unless YOU get CREDIT for EVERYTIME that you WERE RIGHT then ACCEPT that YOU WON'T BE HAPPY because.....  

      Most of the time YOU WONT GET CREDIT even though YOU WERE RIGHT, that's just life.

      But YOU KNOW and no matter if ANYONE ELSE NOTICES OR NOT....YOU WERE RIGHT and YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF for BEING RIGHT.

      

      

What are you waiting for?

      Do you think the PERFECT OPPORTUNITY is just going to drop in your LAP one day?

      Do you think the dream of things suddenly being TOTALLY PERFECT without YOU having to put in the HARD WORK is going TO JUST HAPPEN?

     BE HONEST with YOURSELF in life so you will HONESTLY KNOW that YOUR LIFES JOURNEY is DECIDED by the CHOICES YOU MAKE.

     If you WANT something to be YOUR REALITY then ASK YOURSELF what it WILL TAKE FROM YOU to HAVE IT.

     There will be SACRIFICES that you will HAVE TO MAKE and no matter what ANYONE ELSE TELLS you just STICK TO YOUR CHOICES.

     Because NO ONE but YOU KNOWS WHAT YOU WANT for YOURSELF and NO ONE BUT YOU CARES about how YOUR CHOICES IN LIFE CHOOSES YOUR LIFE'S JOURNEY.

     Always remember that YOU MUST take care of YOURSELF because the truth is YOU MUST be able to take care of YOURSELF.
