Let happiness light the way
+++++++++++++++++++

Happiness is a choice, not an achievement. Nothing will make
you happy until you decide to be happy.

Happiness is not found in a particular set of conditions.
Happiness is a powerful and positive way to deal with the
conditions, whatever they may be.

How can you be happy when the world seems to be crashing
down around you? Even though you may not be happy about
what’s going on, you can be happy for the opportunity to
make a difference.

If you wait until some specific thing happens before being
happy, you’ll have a long, unhappy wait. Choose instead to
live your happiness no matter what, and your happiness will
light the way to those good things you desire.

Being happy is not naive. When you put no conditions on your
happiness, and simply let it flow, it is empowering, and
life-changing.

Forget about how easy or hard it might seem, and find it
within yourself to be happy. Let your happiness push you
forward into a life you can be very happy about.

Intention empowers
+++++++++++++++++++

Intention empowers your life. Intention activates your
passion, energizes your efforts, and pushes you past your
fears.

For intention to do all these things, it must be authentic.
When it is authentic, intention carries the power to achieve
anything.

To put that power into what you do, acknowledge and embrace
who you truly are. There are specific things you really want
to do with life, so give yourself the intention to do them.

Point yourself in a direction you have chosen, a direction
you care about. Set your path based not on the superficial
fashions of the moment, but on the spirit living deep inside
you.

Feel that spirit, and the positive values connected to it,
and you feel your power. Resolve to give new beauty,
excellence and substance to life, and you will suddenly find
yourself doing it.

Empower your day, your year, your life with authentic
intention. Live the way you are meant to live, and do all
you are meant to do.
