Every day offers an opportunity to do something differently, to try something new, to open a door you have avoided or walk in a new direction. It’s not really that hard to change. All you have to do is make the decision to do so and then take the first step. Often that first step is the hardest, but once you are beyond that first step the second one is a lot easier. What is it that you want to change in your life? Take a long look at what that is, how it might affect you and what it will bring you. Then take a deep breath and take that first step into something new.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Make one decision to change and act upon it today, one choice that is meaningful, in mind and action. Choose to do something that you have longed to do. And without fail follow through. Change really only happens intentionally when you deliberately take action, when you take the actual first step toward it, and when you do more that just dream. Take that first fearful step, and with a determined heart, allow yourself to begin to believe in yourself.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Remind yourself often of your ultimate goal so that it is never far from view. With it fixed firmly in your mind’s eye, hold it sacred and with determination so that your attention does not waiver from it. All goals and intentions require a certain amount of determined and focused energy, as well as discipline, if they are to be realized. Hone your attention each day to your goal, and with determination and discipline take another step forward. Before long the discipline will accompany you without your even noticing it because results will begin to flow toward you and your goal will seem readily available. In the beginning, however, stay the course with determination, discipline and an attitude of success achieved one step at a time.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Forge ahead through thick and thin to remain upon your chosen path of change, renewal and evolution. Though ups and downs may occur, they are normal aspects of a changing life and not to be fretted over or worried about. Just keep going. Stay attached to your bright spirit that seeks always growth and higher learning and all will be well.

Sending you love
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

A process of change is never straight but more like a winding mountain road with switchbacks, curves, and steep areas of incline and decline. And though it may seem as if progress is slow there are enough subtle shifts each day to warrant feelings of accomplishment. Better to stay positively focused than to fall into a trap of negativity and despair. Allow change itself to propel you onward each day, as you take a new step and make new plans for your forward journey. At day’s beginning rejoice at the opportunity to start off fresh and at day’s end rejoice in a well traveled day.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne
