Self Love: The Key To Happiness and Success

The missing key to bringing you true happiness is found in self love. Self love is the requirement to building your success foundation.

Many of our goals and pursuits in life focus on finding happiness and success outside of ourselves. If you just get that raise…just loose those 10lbs…just move to another city…just acquire that car…you’ll be happy.

Happiness comes from within. Nothing wrong with getting a raise, losing weight, living your dream city or driving your dream car. They don’t produce lasting happiness.

Seeing the good in yourself, your inner greatness…your Magical Essence starts with loving yourself. When you love yourself, you see the good all around you. You enjoy the results of your achievements.

Positive affirmations provide a great way to begin a wonderful love affair with yourself.

Watch this short Self Love affirmation video.

Use these affirmation as a beginning to create your own list of self love affirmations.

Inspirational Video: One Solitary Life

By Ann Rusnak Leave a Comment

Years ago, I received a Christmas card with a very moving story. I later learned this story was adapted from a sermon first told by Dr. James Allen Francis at the First Baptist Church of Los Angeles.

To this day I still have the Christmas card with the story "One Solitary Life."

One Solitary Life

Here is a man who was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in another village. He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher.

He never owned a home.

He never wrote a book.

He never held an office.

He never had a family.

He never went to college.

He never put His foot inside a big city.

He never traveled two hundred miles from the place He was born.

He never did one of the things that usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but Himself…

While still a young man, the tide of popular opinion turned against him. His friends ran away. One of them denied Him. He was turned over to His enemies.

He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed upon a cross between two thieves. While He was dying His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He had on earth – His coat. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.

Twenty long centuries have come and gone, and today He is a centerpiece of the human race and leader of the column of progress.

I am far within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever marched, all the navies that were ever built; all the parliaments that ever sat and all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as powerfully as has that one solitary life.

Inspirational Video | Boost Self Esteem By Giving

By Ann Rusnak Leave a Comment

The Association for Psychological Science shows that the best way to boost self-esteem is to forget about yourself altogether and think about others.

Sometimes you can become so wrapped up in your own world and desire for success and happiness that you close yourself to others. Start giving and you’ll see a real change in your life.

Giving increases self esteem of the giver and makes you feel better about life in general. Giving should be a blessing to both parties. You increase your happiness and fulfilment through giving .

Inspirational Saying | Promise Yourself

By Ann Rusnak Leave a Comment

Choice gives every person the opportunity to change what they don’t want or like in their life. You can choose how you want to react to a situation. You can choice to change your attitudes and your belief systems.

Choice empowers you to live the life you really want to live. One choice can make all the difference… The poem Promise yourself is filled with life enhancing choices.

Promise Yourself was authored in 1912 by Chistian D. Larson, appearing in his bookYour Forces and How to Use Them. Many have found inspiration in this poem. In hospitals, it has been used to help patients recover from illness. In locker rooms, coaches have used it to motivate their players.

May you find it inspiring too

Promise Yourself…

Promise Yourself…

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind;

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet;

To make all your friends feel that there is something in them;

To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true;

To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best;

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own;

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future;

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile;

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others;

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear; and too happy to permit the presence of trouble;

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds;

To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

Inspirational Video: Gratitude and Thanksgiving Quotes

By Ann Rusnak 3 Comments

Philip Watkins, an Eastern Washington University psychologist said "Troublesome thoughts pop up less frequently and with less intensity, which suggests that gratitude may enhance emotional healing. Thankfulness helps the brain fully process events, Watkins speculates. Grateful people achieve closure by making sense of negative events so that they mesh with a generally positive outlook."

The moment the emotion of gratitude touches you, your spirit lightens, your burden grows less and your smile comes more readily.

Make gratitude a part of consciousness… enjoy this collection of Gratitude and Thanksgiving quotes and video.
