Great Friday Morning!!!!! Wow!! We are coming to an end of another week and month. Time is flying by!!! How do you feel when you get rejected? All of my life, I have struggled with rejection. The word no used to literally send chills down my back. My constant fear of rejection would prevent me from taking risk. I would not talk to girls growing up because of my fear of being rejected. Being rejected is not a good feeling, but sometimes, we are rejected because our light shines too bright. I have learned not to take rejection personal because rejection does not mean no, it just means not right now. Have a great and safe day!!! CM

Great Wednesday Morning!!! Studies have shown that there is a link between oral health and poor overall health. It is important for us to maintain good oral health for multiple reasons.

Great Tuesday Morning!!! What are your struggles? I have learned not only from my own life, but from the lives of other people is that we all have struggles. Some of us are struggling to lose weight and get healthier and some of us struggle just to get out of the bed in the mornings. There is no one on this earth that is living a perfect life. Being transparent about my struggles has helped me not to succumb to them. People might appear to be living these perfect lives on social media, but the reality is that these same people are battling with their own struggles. Having struggles is just a part of life that we all face. Use your struggles as an opportunity to gain strength in your

Great Monday Morning! Are you pushing yourself past your limits? I have learned that if I do not push myself, no one will push me. We have to be self motivated to push ourselves to the next level. The next time you do not feel like doing something that will enhance your mind, body, or spirit, push yourself. You never know what your potentials are until you test the waters. Have a great and safe day!!! CM

Great Spiritual Sunday!!! I hope that you all are enjoying this beautiful day that God has given us!! Have you ever met someone that looked so perfect on the outside, but on the inside, he or she was not as attractive? Many of us spend a lot of time creating the image that we want on the outside, but not as much time cultivating the inside. Looking good on the outside is great, but feeling good on the inside is even better. My challenge to you this week is to implement activities to enhance your inner being. Have a great day!!!! CM

Great Friday Morning!! Why do we set limitations in our lives? There is so much that we can do in this life, but we hold ourselves back by limited thinking. Yesterday, I had all types of limiting thoughts, but we must overcome those thoughts with limitless thinking. I have learned in my journey that we have to see success in our minds before our success becomes a reality. Remember, we were placed in this life to do great things!! Don't allow your limited thinking to take you off course!!! Have a great and limitless day!! Enjoy your weekend!! CM

Great Wednesday Morning!! Health Tips App ★ Vegetable Juices that Fight Fatigue. Raw vegetable juices, especially carrot juice, taken separately or in combination with juices of beets and cucumbers, is highly valuable in overcoming fatigue. The formula proportions considered helpful in the combination juice of 500 ml are carrot 300 ml and beet and cucumber 100 ml each. You should avoid depending for an energy lift, on crutches such as taking aspirin, tranquillisers and other drugs, drinking coffee or alcohol, smoking, eating some sugar or sweets. They give only a temporary boost and this is soon followed by a downward plunge of energy, leaving the sufferer worse than before. Have a gr

Great Tuesday Morning!! What are you going to do to enhance your mind, body, and spirit? Are you a life learner? With the pace of the world, it is easy to lose focus on our own Personal Growth & Development. At a certain point in life, we tend to stop having the desire to learn. Learning is fundamental for explosive growth for our minds. I am committed to being a life learner; The more I learn, the more that I can give back. My goal every month is to enroll in a class to enhance my skill set. My challenge to you is learn something new daily. One thing I love about posting everyday is that it forces me to read so that I can share good information to the world. Have a day filled wit

Great Monday Morning!!! It is is a wonderful day to be in the land of the living!! If you are reading this post, you have a lot to be thankful for🙏🏽. We can never lose sight on how precious life is. You can be here today and gone tomorrow. There is one word that I love talking about the most in my workshops and that word is CONSISTENCY! Think about this for a minute. If you want to be successful in anything in life, you have to apply a minimum level of consistency. When I coach couples, I always emphasize the importance of consistency. How you start your relationship is how you should end your relationship. The problem that most of us have is that we get comfortable and we stop d

Great Fabulous Friday!!! Today is going to be the best day of your life!!! If you believe, it will be!! Yesterday, I went for my annual physical and every time I go to the doctor, I get anxiety. Considering that I do my best to stay healthy there is always a concern that the doctor will find something wrong. It is similar to taking your car to the mechanic and you know that he or she is going to find something wrong with the car. Thankfully, I am in good health and still thriving and reaching for my next level. If you have not had your annual physical, please schedule one before the end of the year. I know history has shown that men are the worse when it comes to going to the doctor. I

Great Wednesday Morning!! Health Tip: I am not against drinking alcohol as long as moderation is in the picture. Too much of anything can be unhealthy. If you are going to drink, please me mindful of how much and how often you drink. Check out this health fact by Lisa Best pertaining to women and alcohol: The Nurses Health Study of 89,538 women between the ages of 34 and 59 found that women who drank between 3 and 9 alcoholic drinks per week had a 30% higher risk of breast cancer than non-drinkers. Since alcohol raises estrogen levels in the body, it is likely that increased estrogen levels may have contributed to the increased risk. To maximize health, make every effort to minimize exce

Great Tuesday Morning!! My heart and prayers goes out to everyone that is and was affected by the effects of the storms. Today's message is on starting over. This message is appropriate considering the damage done by Hurricane Harvey and Irma. Starting over can be a difficult process, especially if the change was unexpected. Starting over gives us a new path and a new perspective on life. When we start over, there is an opportunity to build a stronger foundation that will be ready for the next obstacle in our path. If you are starting over in your life, look at it as an opportunity to rebuild a better and stronger YOU. Have a safe and great day!! CM

Great Monday Morning! Do you agree that staying positive is a full time job? In my own life, I try to stay positive no matter how I feel or what is taking place in my life. Honestly, my mind wants to create negative thoughts, but every day is a fight to stay positive. There is so much negativity in the world, but we must stay positive for ourselves and the people around us. Stay Strong!! CM

Great Sunday Afternoon!! I pray that you are safe and out of harm's way. What does it mean to be patient in the storm? I believe it means that the storm will not last forever and we just have to be able to tough it out. When the storm comes, the goal is to outlast the storm and to not GIVE UP!! If you are going through some difficult times, hang on because the storm will only last for a brief moment!! Be strong and courageous!! CM

Great Friday Morning!! There is a lot going on in the world so please be safe as we move forward. Do you have a growth mindset or a fixed mindset? Developing a growth mindset is changing how we see ourselves and the events that takes place in our lives. Before changing my mindset, I used to see failure as a bad experience, but now, I welcome failure. If we want to be all that we were called to be, we must develop a growth mindset. Having a fixed mindset will set you back and limit you from reaching all of your potentials. Have a great and mindful day!! CM
