“If the path before you is clear, you’re probably on someone else’s.” Joseph Campbell By: Gabriela Yareliz Our path is one we need to clear. That requires making decisions. Choices. I think the world is full of people who are afraid to take ownership of their decisions because they don’t trust they can make theContinue reading “The Path is Paved By Choices”

Virtue
On this July fourth, I leave you with some words from Ryan Holiday: “It’s July 4th, 1776. The Founding Fathers are about to make a very loud statement about freedom and independence. They will, over the next several bloody and bleak years, give nearly everything in order to will it-and a new nation-into existence. ButContinue reading “Virtue”
Only the Brave
By: Gabriela Yareliz I loved this message from Erwin McManus. It was a powerful reminder of the call to courage, and the role our measure of courage plays in laying hold of the life God can help us achieve. The interesting thing is courage is a decision. It is up to us. The message isContinue reading “Only the Brave”
The Foundation of Integrity
“With courage, you will dare to take risks, have the strength to be compassionate and the wisdom to be humble. Courage is the foundation of integrity.” Keshavan Nair
Thoughts for March
“There are no traffic jams on the extra mile.” Zig Ziglar By: Gabriela Yareliz One learns this pretty quickly if one is paying attention in life. As Sahil Bloom says, “Talent and intelligence are abundant. Courage is not.” (I am not sure I agree intelligence is abundant, but we will give Sahil a pass). AsContinue reading “Thoughts for March”

They nibble at twigs and leaves, and the wind helps blow off what is dead. For household plants and garden plants, you must prune. And it’sContinue reading “Pruning”
The Future You
“There are people who love you for who you are but not for who you will be.” Erwin McManus By: Gabriela Yareliz McManus’ quote reminds us that some relationships are temporary. As one of his chapters in Mind Shift is titled, “You Can’t Take Everyone With You.” We are ever evolving. We have to holdContinue reading “The Future You”
Not the Same
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, life takes twists and turns that bring back emotions and thoughts that used to follow us around. We are triggered (for lack of a better word). We are like, this again? It happens. We are human. Internal safety has been a concept I have been exploring through my coaching program (God blessContinue reading “Not the Same”
Reflecting on Courage and Rising
By: Gabriela Yareliz We near the end of this year. This morning, I came across the words, “Courage, dear heart,” written by C.S. Lewis. Those words came to mean something so much more profound to me this year. I read and held onto them before one of the darkest seasons of my own personal experience.Continue reading “Reflecting on Courage and Rising”

“The older you get, the more you realize it’s not what happens, but how you deal with it.” Tina Turner, 1939-2023 I love that quote by the legendary Tina Turner, may she rest in peace. This month was the hardest. There were days where all I had were questions, stacked. Despite the loss and heavinessContinue reading “May 2023 Favorites”
