Get Organized for Better Time Management

personal development Dec 03, 2019

Every woman has areas of life where there is a lack of organization. Whether at home or the office, we misplace things and cannot find items when we need them because we are not orderly.

 

What happens when systems are not put into place?  What if an organizing system is not established? Well things get lost, chaos ensues, and you lose time looking for stuff! I have multiple businesses and do animal rescue. My schedule is nuts.

 

Now, more than ever, it is crucial for us to stay organized! Here are hacks for you that I use to keep myself and my businesses as organized as possible and I promise will save you time (and maybe a little sanity!) 

 

Being organized is a great help with time management. Declutter both home and office before attempting to tackle keeping organized and managing time better.

 

     1. Forget complicated systems.

Any systems you use for organizing that take a lot of time to keep up with are wastes of time. Remember, an organizational system improves your...

Sensational Health and Stewardship Benefits of the Plant-Focused Lifestyle

health Dec 02, 2019

Faith and Food: 

As Christian women, we are called to honor God in every area of life — including how we care for our bodies. While diet is a personal decision, more research is showing that a plant-focused lifestyle brings not only physical health benefits, but also aligns with Biblical principles of stewardship, simplicity, and care for creation.

Let us explore what science says — and what Scripture affirms — about choosing foods that nourish body, soul, and spirit.

 

🌿 The Growing Case for a Plant-Based Diet

According to nutritionists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), most Americans fall short in eating enough fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains.

“Most Americans don’t eat enough fruit, vegetables, legumes or whole grains. There’s a huge consensus that eating more of these foods would be a good idea for everyone.” — Dr. Susan Krebs-Smith, NIH nutritionist

Research now links vegetarian and mostly plant-based diets to a lower risk of heart disease, diabet...

Living In Truth: The Beautiful Power of a Truth Mindset

spirituality Dec 01, 2019

 

After diving into the Truth Mindset throughout this year in my blog series, it is clear that living in God’s truth is a transformative journey. Christian women are called to embrace truth in every area of our lives—our thoughts, emotions, actions, and relationships. This final blog will serve as a reflection and encouragement to continue cultivating a Truth Mindset as we progress in our personal and spiritual growth.

 

Psalm 119:105 (KJV): “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

 

God’s Word is our ultimate source of truth. It lights the way for us, guiding every step we take. As we walk with Christ, we must continually immerse ourselves in Scripture, allowing His truth to direct our decisions and renew our minds.

 

The Journey of Developing a Truth Mindset

This year, we have examined how a Truth Mindset is deeply connected to our faith, identity, and purpose. A Truth Mindset is not just about positive thinking or self-improvement; it is about groundi...

Affirmation: I Am Positive Because Hope Is My Daily Hymn

affirmations Nov 30, 2019

Every day I wake up with rekindled strength and decide to make the day a great one. I arm myself with positivity and a winning mindset. When I step into the world, I start to hear the beautiful hymn of hope that follows me everywhere I go.

 

Even when others choose to play a soundtrack of hopelessness, I dance to my hymn of hope. My ears are prepared to listen only to the sound of hope and to disregard any other noise. I abstain from listening to negative news reports that will only try to deprive me of my capacity to hear the sound of hope.

 

With so much negativity around me, I have to actively seek the good in the world to stay filled with hope. When I concentrate on the good characteristics of others, I can come up with hope.

 

My life is a song filled with hope. Although there is no guarantee in life, I am confident that my life choices move me on the right path. I know that I will be successful.

 

I sing my hymn of hope to the world so others can be lifted in their times ...

Gratitude Is The Powerful Emotion You Need

life coaching Nov 28, 2019

It is easy to be grateful for the good things in life; however, to experience the full benefits of gratitude, we must learn to find gratitude in our challenges. 

 

It is that time of year when most women give up on their goals because they do not see the results they want. Resist the temptation to give up right before the end. Remind yourself how far you have come this year, from the small wins to the big moments. You owe it to yourself to do the best you can.

 

“We ought to give thanks for all fortune: if it is good, because it is good; if bad, because it works in us patience, humility, contempt of this world and the hope of our eternal country.” – C. S. Lewis

 

Gratitude is one of the most powerful emotions we can cultivate as women. And, gratitude inspires a positive mindset.

Best of all, there is always something women can find to be grateful for,  from the big things - such as a promotion, achieved goal, dream relationship, or good health, to the little things - such as...

How To Take Every Thought Captive, Girl

spirituality Nov 24, 2019

Breaking Free from Lie-Locked Living with Truth Mindset™

Have you ever felt trapped in your own mind — stuck in fear, insecurity, shame, or doubt?

...especially around holidays?


You try to pray, serve, and trust God, but inside you keep hearing:

  • “I am not enough.”

  • “This will never change.”

  • “God is disappointed in me.”

Sister, this is what I call Lie-Locked Living — when false beliefs chain your heart and mind, even as you long for freedom.

But here’s the hope:

“Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” — 2 Corinthians 10:5 (KJV)

We can take our thoughts captive by the Spirit and submit them to God’s truth — unlocking the freedom Jesus died to give us.

...Giving thanks to Him for that sacrifice.

 

💔 The Lie: “I cannot control my thoughts — this is just who I am.”

This lie keeps countless Christian women bound.

But God says:
