Day 93
If you want to see a positive change in your life you have to actually be positive and act in a positive way. You can’t expect things to be positive. Life doesn’t work that way. Don’t wait for others to change things for you or for other humans to change to suit you. How does…

Day 73
What are you good at? What is it that you love to do? Are your talents and your love in the same field? It makes for a happy life if you are good at what you do. Work at it. Get better. Make it a priority. Then use what you are good at, what you…
