You Can Make The Best Of Life ... Or the Worst !
You alone have control of how you react to any given situation
You can make the best of it
Or the worst !
Life can ever be a triumph or a struggle !
Life can be
A search for new experiences or a never ending trial of doubts !
Bring positive into everything you do !
Your life will be happier for it !!

WHAT THEY DO NOT TEACH YOU IN SCHOOL….
WHAT THEY DO NOT TEACH YOU IN SCHOOL….
How to love, how to let go and how to live your own
best life…
This life is what you make it. No matter what,
it will not be perfect But the good part is you get to decide
your own perfection. Just because
you fail once, doesn't mean you're going to fail at everything. Keep trying,
hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself. Keep your head high, keep
your chin up, and most importantly,
keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about. ---
Your time is limited; don’t waste it living someone
else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other
people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drowned your own
inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and
intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything
else is secondary.” – Steve Jobs
“ You may not control all the events that happen to
you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”– Maya Angelou
“Why
should we worry about what others think of us, do we have more confidence in
their opinions than we do our own?” ― Brigham Young
Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make
it hot by striking. – Unknown
It is impossible to live without failing at
something, unless you live so cautiously that you might has well not have lived
at all, in which case you have failed by default.
J. K. Rowling
I think most of us are raised with preconceived
notions of the choices we're supposed to make. We waste so much time making
decisions based on someone else's idea of our happiness - what will make you a
good citizen or a good wife or daughter or actress. Nobody says, 'Just be happy
- go be a cobbler or go live with goats.'
Sandra Bullock
It
is I much that you are busy, but
what you are busy doing. What is consuming your energy? Are you working toward the #positive or the negative? The bee is praised. The mosquito is swatted -- Unknown
One
of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off
living. We are all dreaming of
some magical gardens over the horizon instead of enjoying the world blooming outside our windows today -- Unknown
Self discovery is the hardest journey a person can take. Their journey is
not measured in miles nor success. It is measured in understanding. The reason this journey
is so hard and poses such risk is because it's easy to see fault in other people, though very hard to look
inside and see those flaws which stop you from being the best person
you can be. Those flaws demonstrated by others may give clues along the way,
but it is only by self-discovery that one can expect to fulfill their voyage. The way is tough. The things
you find out about yourself may be horrid and unimaginable although one has to
see those evil parts to be able to recognize the temptations the soul has to
step away from becoming because the path is easier. Take a walk across the planes of being you,
and regardless of the risks, those who take this walk with little fear in their
souls will see the bigger picture
-- Unknown
At
some point everyone must decide if they are a creator or a critic,
a lover or a hater,
a giver or a taker.... live life always on the lookout for the presence of wonder. -- Unknown
The
components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the
physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do. They do feel very real, but so can love harmony and peace.
-- Unknown
Be careful not to compromise what you want most for
what you want now. ---Zig Ziglar
My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to
thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some
style.
--Maya Angelou
Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to
someone's face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and
resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must
trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in
this world and the life to come. --Henri Nouwen

Love the One You are With... This Wil Affect Everything in Your Life
Love the one you are with.
The most
important decision of your life that will affect every aspect of your life is
the commitment to love yourself. It directly affects the quality of your
relationships, your work, your quality time, your faith, and your future. By
loving yourself and valuing yourself brings only positive things into your
life.
Just remember that what inside is what really matters.
You can change the place you live, your clothes, your interests, your friends, your loves. However, if you
forgot to change your mind, attitude, beliefs about the yourself, how you love yourself and other people and how will
your life grow and prosper.
Love the one you are with...Take each day as it is and love the one person place and thing that will surround your every day throughout your life.

LIFESTYLE DESIGN... MAKE IT EASIER
In my travels I am always looking for ways to make my “fly by the seat of my pants” travel plans more stress free. Often when I am traveling I need to be able to pack everything in one big carry-on bag and one large hobo “purse” for the plane ride ( Cute handbags are for later and are packed away. ) Too many times I would have lost my checked luggage due to quick plane transfers and last minute flight changes.

In my every day life I am a minimalist when it comes to make-up throw on some mascara and some lip gloss paired with a little glisten from the sun and I am good to go. During photo sessions for my clothing-line and other photo shoots. Being made-up goes to a whole different level…. And a whole new regime to remove the layer of contoured make- up on my face.

My savior!! Maybelline’s New Clean Express Makeup Remover!!!!
It goes on like a gel and does not feel greasy or oily on your skin. It also does not sting your eyes as you are trying to remove our eye makeup. Definitely my new best friend in Makeup remover.
HAPPY TRAVELS!!!

DO NOT GET LOST WITH OUT IT.... DAY HIKING!
DAY HIKING

Gorgeous Lake in Swiss Alps!
Day hiking is one of my favorite hobbies. I love checking out new trails. Making special vacations and trips to experience new surrounding and sites.
One thing I have found that it is always better to have the right things with you even if it is just a day hike. A little extra things to carry, but you will be thankful in the end if you get lost or things go array.
Now if you are going on a simple small well-traveled trail you may or may not what to bring all of these items. But look at the two “kids” 18 year olds that got lost and disoriented in California a half mile from their car. They only had the shirts on their backs and maybe a bottle of water. The girl was in the canyons for four days and almost died.
That said this is the bare essentials I would bring on a trip.
Of course yourself! Comfortable appropriate clothing. (That’s for another blog) Hiking shoes and hiking socks… I have started wearing hiking socks! Big plus!
Food wise I choose mostly light weight easy to eat items in light weight food Tupperware containers. I love granola bars, raisins apples, grapes are great for hot hiking trips. Sometimes I bring a sandwich, but I usually would rather be on the move then stopping for a long time. Always of course bring what you like.
Water and liquids of choice weigh about 8 pounds a gallon. That is approximately one pound [er 16 ounces. How much water you bring really depends on how hot it is and how long you are going out for. The last thing you want is headaches or cramping.
Of course a day pack of your comfort. That is really a personal choice.
I always bring poncho. It is light and you can always use it to sit on. Definitely a knife. Compass is a must! Matches are also a must. Even if you do not have the proper clothing a fire will keep you warm.
The extras I like to bring for comfort is sunscreen, lip gloss and wetnaps (and baggies) for cleansing.
There are many more items that you will find essential. These are my basics.
HAPPY TRAVELS!!!

ALWAYS HAVE A BACK UP PLAN
ALWAYS HAVE A BACK UP PLAN
What would be worse than to have taken months or even just weeks of great vacation and travel photos only to lose them. If you only have them saved on the memory card in your camera and your camera gets lost or damaged. I would I would be so upset with myself for not having the photos stored someplace else. You have a few great options.

If you are traveling light the easiest and cheapest way to go is to get a few 8 GB Memory Card.
SanDisk 8GB SD High Capacity Card (SDSDB-008G-B35)

Is a good product and it is cheap. At 8 GB you can take a lot of good quality photos and every week or so send the Memory Card home for safe keeping.
Second options is if you are bringing your laptop is can save your files directly to your laptop, althought I think there are better options such as online storage accounts like dropbox where you can store your files. This is a great option if you are working on the road and need to access your photos or work files from anywhere.
The Third option is if you are bring your laptop get an external hard drive like the Seagate Go Flex.

Seagate GoFlex Satellite Mobile Wireless Storage 500 GB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive STBF500101 Black
I think this version of the Seagate Go Flex is the best because you can wirelessly stream to your iPad, Sync your media library and documents on your PC or Mac, Stream 3 different movies over Wi-Fi simultaneously to 3 iPads, and you can stream up to 5 hours of video on a single charge. Talk about making life easier on the road.
