The first tool I thought of was hope. But, I have recently removed hope from my tool box because “hope is not a strategy”. Life is what you make of it, not what you “hope” might happen.

So instead I’ll take optimism on my journey through life. Looking at the glass as half full instead of half empty allows me to see the Earth and its inhabitants in an accurate and beautiful light.

I like how you call your systems tools. Each tool can be used to expand your happiness.

I’ve been keeping a one sentence journal. Every single day I write at least one sentence about my career/life. It’s amazing how this tool has helped me stay focused.

Hi Tess.
Sounds like you have a wonderful time planned and well prepared for. Your family is lucky to have you I thought of another affirmation to add to the list; “My family sees me through their loving eyes.”

Hi Tess,

I hope you have a great time up in Northern Michigan!

I had to laugh when you said that you and your family are weird. Like you said, the truth is that EVERYONE is. And if everybody were normal, life would be pretty boring. With that being said, family gatherings can indeed get quite interesting due to all of the colorful characters that are in each of our families.

One of the many tools I try to pack in life is my “going with the flow” tool. I didn’t always use it in the past, but I am getting much better at putting it to work!

Hi Tess, thoughtful post on celebration and being with our loved ones. We all need a break from work, and I’m glad you’re taking some time off to visit your friends and family. It seems like you’ll be doing a lot of running and hanging out with your grandson. Thanks for sharing this and I hope you have lots of fun on your trip!

Jarrod,
I find my life to be very abundant because I’m aware of all of my gifts and those life offers me. My gratitude journals of the past 8 years has allowed me not to be distracted by small bumps in the road. When I’m over my head I choose for it to be in abundance and gratitude instead of craziness and drams. It sounds like you experience the same and I’m grateful you took the time to share with us today.

Evita,
It’s difficult for me to be anyone I’m not. My mask when or if I choose to wear it never is a good disguise. It always feels so uncomfortable I take it off almost immediately. Everyone sees through it anyway. I only fool myself. Authenticity rocks my world as well. So everyone please be yourself on my blog…express what you feel…be who you are. Don’t ya just love that line?!? Thanks Evita, have a great week!

Wilma,
You are always such a good friend and I appreciate all the love and light you send me in your comments. Thanks for your patience while I’m on my after tax season break and I’ll be back in YOUR loop soon! xo

Suzie,
Thanks for stopping by my blog…it’s great to find the abundance queen here! You’re always so positive in bringing out the gratitude in others. It affects me and it affects our world. Thanks for your awesome energy and visit! Love to you.

Joy,
I appreciate each of your gifts and thank you for sharing them with me in our journey on and off line. Your joy is my joy and your gifts will continue to multiply because of the way you offer and share them with others. I’m so thankful you’re in my life. Let me know of any way I can help you on your new journey. It’s so fun to see you grow and spread your love, light and all with the world. Celebrate!

Topi,
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for your interest and support for my blog. I’m looking forward to more connectedness in our online world;)

suZen,
I love it…your dog and presend moment living…what else can anyone ask for or possibly need for a trip away!

Hi Tess! How lovely that you consciously “packed” for your trip! I’ve no doubt, keeping all that with you, that the entire trip will be a blessing! Great things to pack! I take my dog for remembering present moment living – he is my huge reminder of that.
Hugs
