Day: 18 Spoke: Spiritual Habit: Everything is Spiritual I believe we are all spiritual beings having a human experience. There is something about the human soul that transcends vocabulary words and science. It’s an encounter with the Divine that cannot be explained. I love the Albert Einstein quote, “There are only two ways to live […]
Day: 17 Spoke: Physical Habit: Eating Whole Foods If you have been my friend on social media for the last 8 years, then you know I have been very vocal about food choices and ingredients. It’s for a simple reason. When I cut out processed foods and just eat whole foods, I feel so much […]
Today’s habit is going to be pretty short and sweet. Several years ago I started writing down quotes that directly addressed a habit I was working to change. Most of the time, the change happens by changing a perspective or belief in the mind. So every morning and night while I brush my teeth I […]
Day: 15 Spoke: Bonus (Philanthropy) Habit: Aligning Strengths and Service The Ziglar Wheel of Life has 7 spokes.

It’s the secret to success in any spoke on the Wheel of Life. Making […]
Day: 12 Spoke: Personal Habit: Understanding Self-Love I’m so grateful that self love is getting more and more attention. The first time I ever heard the concept of putting yourself as a priority above everyone else in your life was by Michael Hyatt in 2011 in his “Creating Your Life Plan” workbook. He discussed the […]
Day: 11 Spoke: Financial Habit: Debt is not an option I opened my first credit card when I was 18 years old. I was told I needed it to “build my credit.” I went to Best Buy and financed the purchase of a digital camera with all the accessories. I was so proud of myself […]
Day: 10 Spoke: Spiritual Habit: Follow the Peace I’ve written and deleted this post three times. I can’t seem to find the words to explain this experience well, and I think it’s because it doesn’t take many words. This quote says it all. When I decided to find my peace and arrange my life in […]
Day: 9 Spoke: Physical Habit: Water You’re probably saying “I know…I know…I know…” I need to drink more water. But if we’re going to talk about habits, this is one that cannot be left out. There’s lots of info out there about how much water to consume. The guideline I use is your body weight […]
