When we push away the feelings we don’t want to feel, the resisted feelings only grow stronger.

Strength of Character
Strength of character isn’t built when the sun is shining, the sea is smooth and all is well. It’s built when your sails are torn, when the waves are high, when the rudder keeps slipping and when you’re still determined to give it your best. (C) 2017 Tiffany Cara
Stopping the Insanity of Dating
At a young age, I fell in love with the concept of love. I believed that to be in love with a man meant that all of my problems would go away.

This can be a challenge, because this can keep us from appreciating the subtle shifts that can lead to bigger changes. At the onset ofContinue reading “Even Subtle Changes are Important “
Monday Motivation: Chasing Our Heroes
By chasing our heroes, we find new ways to push our growth edge. By continually moving out of our comfort zones, we make our best a reality, over and over again. Last night, a very good friend shared with me Matthew McConaughey’s Oscar acceptance speech. It blew me away! I hope you find it doesContinue reading “Monday Motivation: Chasing Our Heroes”

Easter heralds the season of renewal, rebirth and resurrection.
