The Warrior Chic Lifestyle!!!

"How great the world would be if everyone in it were like me." How many people think like that? Probably more than we care to acknowledge. However, this world is a hodgepodge of different ideas, beliefs, opinions, and viewpoints -- so many that at times it would be difficult to impossible to get any two people agree 100 percent on anything. When differences occur we have a tendency to judge the other person. Especially when that difference is on a major issue that is strongly believed. What happens  is that people become committed to their "positions"-- they are certain they are right,  their way is the best way, and their way is the only way.  This all boils down to ego. Eckhart Tolle explains in his book, "The New Earth,"that ego is what separates us from each other.  Ego  wants to be special, to stand out, to be right, and to be separate . When Ego is in control, often  relationships will fail, and people separate. Each person or entity -- be

                                         My Wedding Day in  Jamaica In the last post we talked about what motivation is and the importance it is for long distance marriages. Today we will look at ways to strengthen motivation.   What it look like to be motivated. Lack of motivation means lack of enthusiasm, zest and ambition, whereas the possession of motivation is a sign of strong desire, energy and enthusiasm, and the willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve what one sets out to do. A motivated person is a happier person, more energetic, and sees the positive end result in his or her mind. What can you do to strengthen your motivation? Set a goal. If you have a major goal, it would be a good idea if you split it into several minor goals, each small goal leading to your major goal. In our case it would be our 30 day  challenge  to think  positive  about our spouse and marriage. By dividing your goal into several, smaller goals, you will find it easier to mot

What is motivation? It is the inner power that pushes you  toward taking action and toward achievement.  Motivation is  powered by desire and ambition, and therefore, if they are absent, motivation is absent too.   As trucker wives we are not always motivated to support our  hubby . Mostly because we feel misunderstood, not listen to and that all  responsibility  falls on us. However in order to save our marriages we have to find  strength .  Strength can come from self talk, affirmations or just creating a strong desire to fix our marriages.  What is a desire? A desire is a strong belief or feeling to do  something.  Sometimes, you might have the desire to get something done, or to achieve a certain goal, but if the desire and ambition are not strong enough, you lack the push, the initiative, and the willingness to take the necessary action. In these cases, you lack of motivation and inner drive. When there is motivation, there is initiative  and direction, courage, e

Repeating positive statements / declarations, also called affirmations, is a self-talk method for changing your attitude and developing positive habits. It is an effective method for self improvement, and for improving your life, because it imprints your thoughts and desires on your subconscious mind. This self talk methods works, because the subconscious mind accepts often-repeated thoughts, statements and commands. The subconscious mind does not make distinctions between negative and positive self-talk, and treats them both in the same way. This means that you have to be careful to choose only positive affirmations Pay attention to what is going in your mind, and you will discover that your mind is a constant state of thinking. There is a constant self-talk activity going on. You can use this self-talk to your advantage, when you know how. Constant repetition is the secret key . Repeating positive words and statements, instead of occupying the mind with useless or negative

What are affirmations? These are positive statements that describe a desired situation, which are often repeated, until they get impressed on the subconscious mind... In the last post I challenge all Warrior Chic's to a 30 Day  Challenge to talk only positive about their marriage and spouse. The reason being is simple. Everyday I see many couples that are fighting a hard battle trying to balance their lives with their marriage. Everything seems to come first before their marriages.  Marriage is neglected because one is focused on career. Many of my clients  eat, breathe and sleep career. What we focus on, grows. Thus, career blossoms, prospects of marriage wither. Many do this because they are living a long distance marriage. Its hard to balance I know. I have been living a long distance marriage for 14 of the 18 years I've been with my hubby.  Marriage affirmations help us rearrange our priorities. When the major thought in the mind is of marriage, the prospects of cre

What is an affirmations? They are positive statements that describe a desired situation or goal, and are often repeated, until they get impressed on the subconscious mind. This process, causes the subconscious mind to to strive and to work on your behalf, to make the positive statement come true. When you know how to use affirmations, you get a great tool for achieving success and for improving your life. Most people repeat in their minds negative words and statements concerning the situations and events in their lives, and consequently, create undesirable situations. Words work at both ways, to build or destroy. It is the way we use them that determines whether they are going to bring good or harmful results. Your subconscious mind accepts as true what you keep saying. It attracts corresponding events and situations into your life. So why not choose only positive statements, in order to get positive results? I challenge all Warrior Chics to a 30-Day Challenge. T
