Positive Living with Tammy

Quote by Oprah found on Pinterest  Speaking positive personal confessions and scriptures out-loud, along with having an expectant attitude toward prosperity and positive living has also become a daily routine for me and it has had a tremendous effect on my life.  Speaking prosperity, for example:  "I always have more than enough!"   "My cup runneth over!" " I'm a giver with plenty to give!" " God supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus!" " Everything I put my hands to prospers and succeeds!" And declaring positive statements about your life, for example:  "This is my year for a breakthrough!" " This is my year of increase!" "This is my best year yet!"   "I am healthy and happy!"  " I love my life!" Through my Bible studies, church and some of Joyce Meyer's books and teachings...

Mentors inspire us into action, challenge us out of our comfort zones, strengthen our resolve towards our goals, encourage us when we're ready to quit, and enable us to bridge the gap between where we are and where we want to be through their previous failures and successes. And much, much more.  For successful people mentors are a must. There isn't a question about it. Everyone needs a mentor, especially when one is embarking on the journey of changing one's life.  Take one of my mentor's, Jim Rohn, for example. He shared so much in his lifetime about change and successful living and his teachings have inspired and continue to inspire so many people even today. Jim said:  "Life is about constant, predictable patterns of change, and the only constant factor will be our feelings and attitudes toward life. We as human beings have the power of attitude and that attitude determines choice, and choice determines results.  All that we are and all that we c...

Failure or Success? In my lifetime I have "failed". A lot. In many areas. Including:  Relationships, p arenting, b usiness ventures, and f inances. However, I do not consider myself a failure or that these failures are actually failures.  On the contrary, I have only found ways that do not work.  Let me explain. I can choose to accept the fact that many of my relationships, parenting techniques, business adventures, and financial struggles are truly  failures and   QUIT.  OR I can press on, realizing that the plan that I purposed and put into execution was flawed, then, I am able to choose to accept the defeated plan, and   create a new plan!  Since I haven't QUIT improving my relationships, parenting techniques, business ventures, and finances, I am not a failure! I have simply learned what does not work.  Many successful people have learned this golden nugget, and now I sh...

Dreams & Visions for Your Future Do you dream of a future full of success, happiness and prosperity?  It all begins with a single thought.  Followed by a dream and shadowed by a vision.  And finally pursued physically by action.  You can create the future you desire to live, if only you will put your mind to it!  One of the most important lessons I have learned is this: I am where I am in life because of my own thoughts . It is not my upbringing, or life circumstances, or even the hand that I was dealt that had kept me from living an abundant, fulfilled, joyful life.  It was my wrong thinking. Once I began to earnestly seek God and His desire for my life, I began to discover that I did not believe that I was worthy of such a life. This hard truth made me examine even further my negative thoughts, actions, and situation in life.  After grasping the reality that God has a plan for my life:...
