ADAPT AND OVERCOME
THIS WAS A MOTTO THAT I LEARNED IN THE MILITARY AND STILL APPLY TO THIS DAY :)
SOBER OCTOBER :)
SOBER OCTOBER IS GOING REALLY WELL. FRIDAY WAS THE FIRST EVENING I WANTED A BEER… HOWEVER OF COURSE I DID NOT CAVE AS I HAVE ALREADY MADE MY MIND UP… GOING UNTIL THE 27TH.
IT IS FUN TO TEST THE WILL POWER.
MY WAISTLINE LOOKS BETTER :)
WE VOTE WITH OUR WALLETS... AND ALSO OUR EYES
ONE MAJOR REASON I STOPPED WATCHING THE NEWS IS… I FOUND OUT THEY PREY ON FEAR.
I HAD ONE CLIENT LEAVE A NEWS COMPANY AFTER THEY WERE EXCITED AFTER AN ACCIDENT… THEY SAID “ IF IT BLEEDS IT LEEDS “, SHE WALKED OUT THAT DAY NEVER TO RETURN.
I WAS HOPING TO START A TREND WHEN I STOPPED WATCHING THE NEWS IN HOPES IF ENOUGH OF US DO THAT THEY WILL BE FORCED TO SWITCH THEIR AGENDA.
DID YOU KNOW PHARAMACEUTICAL COMPANIES USED TO NOT BE ALLOWED TO ADVERTISE?
SO WHETHER YOU ARE WATCHING CNN, FOX NEWS, OR ANY OTHER COMPANY… YOU ARE LITERALLY SUPPORTING THEM.
SOME PEOPLE ARE SUPPORTING WHAT THEY REALLY DO NOT LIKE… SEEMS INSANE.
MANY TIMES THE POLITICIAN WHO IS DISLIKED ACTUALLY WINS BECAUSE THEY ARE GETTING THE MOST ATTENTION.
SO I SAY VOTE WITH YOUR HEART, WALLET, MIND.. IT ALL.
BE CONSIOUSLY AWARE OF WHAT COMPANIES ONE IS SUPPORTING.
DID YOU SPEND TIME IN NATURE TODAY?
DID YOU LAUGH WITH A FRIEND TODAY?
WHATEVER WE FOCUS ON GROWS…WHATEVER WE GIVE OUR ATTENTION TO.
DID YOU PRACTICE LOVE
ARE YOU WISE ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT COMPANIES ARE THRIVING OFF FEAR AND EMOTION… THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING… DO YOU?
ARE YOU PRACTICING SELF LOVE?
LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY
OUR HEARTS AND MINDS ARE LIKE PARACHUTES… THEY ONLY WORK WHEN THEY ARE OPEN :)
CONSISTENCY IS KEY
DO THE LITTLE THINGS OFTEN AND WITH LOVE.
WHETHER IT IS HULA HOOPING, PLANKS, WALKS, DO THEM OFTEN, STAY CONSISTENT.
IT IS GOING TO BE EASIER TO GO BACK TO THE OLD WAY OF LIVING.
BREAK THROUGH THOSE WALLS AND KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
PICK UP A 30 DAY CHALLENGE… THEY WORK BECAUSE OF CONSISTENCY.
STAY CONSISTENT MY FRIENDS :)
LIVING IN APPRECIATION
DID YOU GIVE THANKS TODAY FOR YOUR HANDS, FEET, BREATH, EYES IF YOU ARE BLESSED WITH THEM?
DID YOU SAY A PRAYER FOR SOMEONE ELSE TODAY?
DID YOU OPEN TWO GIFTS… YOUR EYES?
DID YOU THANK GOD FOR THE ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD OR FOOD IN THE FRIDE?
DOCTORS, NURSES, CONSTRUCTION WORKERS… WE ALL NEED EACH OTHER IN SOME WAY SHAPE OR FORM :)
SOBER OCTOBER :)
SOBER OCTOBER IS GOING WELL :).
IMPROVED SLEEP
SAVING MONEY
EXERCISING MORE
ENERGY LEVELS UP
CLARITY = CHECK
FEELING GOOD = GOLDEN :)
EMTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
CAN YOU BE THE ONE TO TALK AWAY IN A MOMENT OF ANGER AND TAKE SOME DEEP BREATHS OR GO FOR A WALK? CAN YOU STOP YOURSELF IN A MOMENT OF JEALOUSY AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND CHANGE YOUR THOUGHTS? CAN YOU BREAK THE CYCLE? ARE YOU STRONG ENOUGH? CAN YOU MAKE THAT CHOICE?
WE DO NOT HAVE TO ATTEND EVERY ARGUMENT, VICTIM FILLED DISEMPOWERMENT, OR COMPLAINING CONVERSATION WE ARE INVITED TO.
STAY SOLUTION ORIENTED MY FRIENDS.
STAY EMPOWERED
DON’T STOP!!!
DON’T STOP MOVING FORWARD, LEARNING, BEING KIND TO OTHERS.
WE ALL HAVE PROBLEMS AND ISSUES. KINDNESS AND COMPASSION GO A LONG WAY.
RELIEF
RELIEF IS ONE OF THE MOST PRECIOUS EMOTIONS. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE IS SOMETHING I RESEARCH AND PRACTICE.
I FIND RELIEF IN KNOWING, I WILL NEVER KNOW IT ALL AND I WILL NEVER GET IT ALL DONE. THIS EMPLORES ME TO BE A LIFELONG LEARNER.
I ALSO FIND RELIEF IN KNOWING SOMETIMES I AM WRONG. I MAKE SURE MY APOLOGIES ARE SINCERE. JUST LIKE I TEACH MY STUDENT AHTLETES… ONE WOULD NOT WANT TO MAKE EVERY SHOT IN BASKETBALL OR A HOLE- IN -ONE FOR EVERY GOLF SHOT. LIFE WOULD BE BORING IF WE WON ALL THE TIME AND KNEW IT ALL.
FAIL FORWARD MY FRIENDS.
KINDNESS AND COMPASSION
THE MAJOR DRIVING FORCES FOR ME ARE:
WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE… ALL OF US… THAT SHOULD BE ENOUGH.
EVERYONE WE MEET IS DEALING WITH SOMETHING WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.
LIFE WILL KICK YOU IN THE NUTS FROM TIME TO TIME, WHO KNOWS HOW THAT PERSON DAY IS GOING.
LIFE CAN BE CHALLENGING ENOUGH
THIS IS SOMEONES FIRST HOLIDAY WITHOUT A LOVED ONE.
IF THIS WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW THIS PERSON I WOULD WANT OUR INTERACTION TO BE HARMOUNIUOS.
90 % OF US ARE ALREADY OUR OWN HARSHEST CRITICS… MOST PEOPLE DO NOT NEED HELP BEATING THEMSELVES UP… MANY WANT A LISTENING EAR AND OR ENCOURAGEMENT.
SOBER OCTOBER
EVERY YEAR I PIC BETWEEN 27 TO 39 DAYS TO SET ALCOHOL ASIDE!!!!!!!!!
POSITIVE BENEFITS ENLUDE :
MY FAVORITE, IS IMPROVED SLEEP :)
I SAVE MONEY
I GIVE MY BODY A REST
I HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF CLARITY
I HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF ENERGY
ALL POSITIVE :)
IMAGINATION
PRACTICE IMAGINING THE BEST CASE SCENARIO.
I RECENTLY HEARD WORRIE IS LIKE A NEGATIVE PRAYER AND THAT RESONATED WITH ME!!!!!!
WHATEVER WE PRACTICE WE GET BETTER AT.
I OFTEN FIND IT IS BETTER THAN WHAT WE WERE THINKING.
BE A WARRIOR NOT A WORRIER
DO NOT LET THE WORRIES OF TOMORROW TAKE AWAY TODAY’S PEACE
STAY ZEN MY FRIENDS :)
IT IS A GOOD DAY TO HAVE A GREAT BIDET!!!!!!!!!
WHEN WE STOPPED IN JAPAN WHEN I WAS IN THE MILITARY THE AIRPORT HAD BIDETS. I HAVE OWNED ONE FOR OVER TEN YEARS NOW. THEY ARE SUPER EASY TO INSTALL, FEEL GOOD, AND NEVER EVER HAVE I BEEN MORE CLEAN DOWN THERE. IT IS A GREAT FEELING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, BIDETS ROCK HAHA.
FORGIVE
I ALWAYS AIM TO GET BETTER AND NOT BITTER.
EITHER WE WIN OR WE LEARN.
I KNOW NOTHING…
OTHER THAN:
I WANT TO BE KIND TO OTHERS
I AIM TO STAY COMPASSIONATE
I KNOW EVERYONE IS GOING THROUGH SOMETHING WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT
I KNOW WHEN PEOPLE ARE MEAN AND NASTY TO ME IT IS A DIRECT REFLECTION OF WHAT IS GOING ON INSIDE THAT PERSON.
HAPPY PEOPLE DO NOT GO AROUND MAKING TROUBLE AND RUINING OTHER PEOPLES DAYS
I HAVE CIRCLED THE WORLD TWICE… LITERALLY IN AIRPLANES… AND STILL FEEL LIKE I KNOW THE SMALLEST SLIVER OF ANYTHING
I AM A LIFE LONG LEARNED
TO GIVE LOVE IS TO RECEIVE LOVE
PRACTICE THE PAUSE
PRACTICE THE PAUSE… TAKE A BREATH
IN A MOMENT OF ANGER: PRACTICE THE PAUSE
IN A MOMENT OF JOY: PRACTICE THE PAUSE AND SINK INTO IT
TAKE A DEEP BREATH
IN A HUG: PRACTICE THE PAUSE
IN A KISS… TAKE ONE EXTRA SECOND AND PRACTICE THE PAUSE
WHEN GRABBING YOUR LOVER’S BOOTY FOR GOD’S SAKE TAKE ONE EXTRA SECOND AND PRACTICE THE PAUSE!!!
BEFORE MAKING A MAJOR DECISION… TAKE A DEEP BREATH, MAYBE A NATURE TRAIL WALK… AND PRACTICE THE PAUSE :)
HOPE THIS REACHES YOU WELL
ECKHART TOLLE
SMELLING A FLOWER, LOOKING AT A FRIEND… PRACTICE THE PAUSE
BULLYING
THE ONLY THING I FIND THAT WORKS TO BULLYING… IS TO STAND UP TO THEM!!!!!!!!!
IT IS A SAD THING BECAUSE THE BULLIES ARE SOME OF THE MOST INSECURE PEOPLE I KNOW, THEY ARE ACTING OUT OF FEAR.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE RECENT STORIES IS ABOUT A HIGH SCHOOLER WHO WAS GETTING BULLIED BUT NEVER STOOD UP FOR HIMSELF BECAUSE HE THOUGHT IT “ WASN’T CHRIST LIKE “ . HIS MENTOR SAID, “ I DON’T KNOW WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IDEA “. THE NEXT DAY HE PUT THE BULLY IN A JUDO THROW… AND IN HIS MOST CURAGEUOS MOMENT… STOPPED THE BULLY’S HEAD FROM HITTING THE CONCRETE. NOW MOST PEOPLE WOULD THINK IT IS ABOUT GETTING BACK AND HURTING THE OTHER PERSON. IT IS NOT… IT IS ABOUT STANDING UP FOR YOURSELF AND KNOWING YOUR WORTH.
SAY A PRAYER OF APPRECIATION TO YOUR BODY
THINK HOW MUCH OUR BODIES HAVE GOTTEN US THROUGH. ALMOST SEEMS LIKE A MIRACLE TO MOST OF US THAT WE ARE STILL ALIVE!!!!!! AS AN INVITATION SEND A PRAYER TO YOUR CURRENT BODY… AND TAKE MOMENT TO VISUALIZE HOW YOU WANT TO LOOK IN YOUR FUTURE BODY. WE ARE THE MIACHALENGELOUS OF OUR OWN LIVES… THE SCULPTORS.
ONE LOVE, NAMASTE
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME
CROFTON
PAY IT FORWARD!!!!!!!!!
WHEN YOU FEEL GOOD… IT IS GOOD!!!!!! I INVITE EVERYONE TO CLOSE THEIR EYES AND THINK OF SOMETHING NICE SOMEONE HAS DONE FOR YOU:). LOVE JOY AND UNITY. THINK ABOUT PAYING IT FORWARD TODAY AND DOING SOMETHING NICE FOR SOMEONE ELSE!!!
HUGE SHOUTOUT OF APPRECIATION TO ALL THOSE WHO ATTENDED STRAIGHT UP STRETCHING!!!!!!!!! NEXT ROUND SUNDAY MORNINGS 10:30 AM WITH HONOR AT THE PALMYRA VFW.
THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE SERVING!!! ONE LOVE, NAMASTE
GOOD VIBES ONLY
DREAMS
OUR DREAMS ARE GIVEN TO US FOR A REASON.
MAYBE YOU WANT A BMW, A NEW HOUSE OR BUSINESS? WHATEVER VISIONS AND DREAMS THAT WERE GIVEN TO YOU SPECIFICALLY.. ARE FOR A REASON. FOLLOW THEM!!! THERE MAY COME A TIME WHEN YOU WANT TO QUIT… BUT IF YOU HAVE THE COURAGE TO PUSH THROUGH. YOU WILL BE REWARDED… NOT ONLY THIS BUT YOU WILL BE ON YOUR PATH :)
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
SINCERELY,
CROFTON CELENTANO
OPEN HEARTS AND OPEN MINDS
HEARTS AND MINDS ARE LIKE PARACHUTES… THEY ONLY WORK WHEN THEY ARE OPEN. I FIND IT SO WISE THE ONES WHO CAN ADMIT THEY KNOW NOTHING. I KEEP MY DISTANCE FROM THE ONES WHO THINK THEY KNOW EVERYTHING BECAUSE THEY HAVE CLOSED THEMSELVES OFF FROM NEW INFORMATION.
I AIM TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY AND VIEW MYSELF AS A LIFELONG LEARNER.
I HOPE THIS FINDS YOU WELL AND THANK GOD FOR ANOTHER DAY :)
ONE LOVE, NAMASTE
