\u201cDon\u2019t lose faith. Promise yourself that you will be a success story, and I promise you that all the forces of the universe will unite to come to your aid; you might not feel today or for a while, but the longer you wait the bigger the prize.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0 – George Bernard Shaw<\/p>\n

I love that quote so much.\u00a0 It\u2019s an important reminder, especially when there are so many challenges in life that can discourage us, beat us down, and become an impetus for our forgetting who we are.\u00a0 I think sometimes life\u2019s greatest challenge of all is in remembering exactly who we are!<\/p>\n

And who are we? We are children of Heavenly Parents, which by divine birthright means that every single one of us came into this world having the inherited capacity to become gods and goddesses ourselves someday. And despite what we might lack physically, mentally, or temporally, none of those can limit the fact that every one of us was born with that same divine birthright and that same capacity for greatness. That\u2019s who we are!!! And it\u2019s our number one job in life to remember that!<\/p>\n

We simply can\u2019t afford to allow anything to ever make us forget exactly who we are. Because remembering that is what reminds us to have faith in our abilities, it\u2019s what helps us believe in ourselves. Nothing gives us more confidence then remembering exactly who we are and living our lives as such.<\/p>\n

We control our own thoughts. We decide our own actions. We control our own destiny.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a basic law that like attracts like. Negative thinking definitely attracts negative results. Conversely if a person habitually thinks optimistically and hopefully, his positive thinking sets in motion creative forces – and success, instead of eluding him, flows toward him.\u201d\u00a0<\/span> -Normal Vincent Peale<\/p>\n

Remember who you are. \u201cDon\u2019t lose faith. Promise yourself that you will be a success story, and I promise you that all the forces of the universe will unite and come to your aid\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Love to you all and I\u2019ll be back to post again Monday night. Have a gloriously long holiday weekend everyone!<\/p>\n
