What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?
Just one day, I’d like to be a judge. There is too much stuff that is being swept under the rug that should be dealt with differently. The changes I would like to make will benefit our country in the long run.

Trail joy
The perfect way to reconnect with nature, relieve stress, and improve your overall well-being is to hike. It offers a variety of experiences that are both fulfilling and energizing, like scenic vistas and hidden waterfalls.
The main benefit of hiking is that you can disconnect from the daily grind. You’ll often find that hiking takes you to remote and pristine environments far from city noise and pollution. It’s a great way to recharge and rekindle your sense of wonder.
In addition to reducing stress, hiking is enjoyable. Nature has been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, improving mental health. The beauty of nature and the ability to focus on the present are hallmarks of hiking, which is particularly therapeutic.
Hiking offers an excellent physical workout. No matter how challenging your hike is, hiking is a low-impact exercise that restores cardiovascular health, strengthens muscles, and increases flexibility.
So what’s the best way to get started hiking? The good news is that you don’t have to be an expert or invest in expensive gear to get started. Easy-to-moderate trails are perfect for beginners, and many parks offer guided hikes led by naturalists. A pair of sturdy shoes, some comfy clothes, and a sense of adventure are all you need.
Hiking is a joy that has many benefits. Get away from technology, reduce stress or improve your health. Hiking is a great way to make those changes.
Get your hiking boots on, grab a bottle of water, and hit the trails! Your enjoyment may surprise you.
Have a blessed day

Is your appearance something that you’d like to improve? You might be interested in dressing for success, whether at work or outside of it.
There is a great deal of attention paid to clothing when it comes to dressing for success. Some women search for elegant pants suits or dresses that they can wear to a business meeting, a job interview, a party, or to work generally. It is also true that men dress in the same way, but most men often focus on selecting business pants suits or dress pants to wear. There is no doubt that you should consider these pieces of clothing and others as well, however you may also want to look beyond the actual clothing in order to achieve your goals. The accessories that you choose should play a significant role in your success in dressing for success.
It is important to note that when it comes to accessories, there are a number of options available, particularly for women. Dressing for success may also involve examining a wide variety of accessories, such as jewelry, hair accessories, belts, shoes, purses and handbags, which are all items that those who dress for success may want to consider. You might also consider examining clothing accessories, such as those listed previously, if you are interested in dressing for success.
It’s true that clothing and clothing accessories are frequently associated with women, but there are a number of accessories that men can also benefit from as well, especially for men who are striving for success in the workplace. When it comes to improving their professionalism or appearance in general, men should consider examining shoes, jewelry, and belts, including watches, belts, and ties, if they wish to improve their appearance. A bit of online research or a little bit of shopping online will quickly show you that men have just as many accessory options as women when it comes to accessorizing their outfit.
It is always nice to hear that use of clothing accessories can make your shopping for success easier, but you might be unsure as to why you should use them in order to achieve success with your endeavor. In the first place, it is common for both men and women to wear clothing accessories as part of their everyday attire. As a consequence of this, many men and women have certain accessories that they like to wear for various reasons.
It is important to realize that you do not need to purchase matching accessories for each outfit you purchase when shopping for clothing accessories in order to dress for success. It may be more appropriate for you to purchase a number of accessories containing neutral colors instead. If you want a handbag or belt in a black, brown, or off-white color, then you can rely on the fact that it will go with the majority of your outfits. In addition, footwear, jewelry, and other clothing accessories can be considered as part of clothing accessories as well.
It may be beneficial to make your purchases at the same time if you are interested in not only dressing for success clothes, but also dress for success clothing accessories, because you will be saving time and money by making both purchases together. In this way you will be able to match all the clothing and accessories pieces together if you want to wear a cohesive look. In that respect, you can also shop later on if you wish. If you are interested in saving money on accessories, then shopping online may be a good choice for you.

Sometimes we get caught up in competitions or our egos scream for attention when all we really want is to unleash our brilliant gifts. Your brilliance can’t be taken with you, so aim high.
Change can be hard for some people. We often rely on what we’ve learned as children to survive, thrive, and fit in with others. Many people have fought for survival and every scrap that came their way, while some have adapted to change and thrived in the midst of change. It takes work to unlearn these old beliefs and dismantle them.
There is always room for win-win. You can create amazing changes when you are able to see beyond the ego and recognize the abundance that is available. A team with people like this is uplifted, the energy soars, and amazing creativity emerges. In a culture driven by scarcity and competition, this is much harder to do, sustain, and elevate.
Throughout my career, I’ve learned that the high road is often the better path. It’s not about judging others wrong or believing yourself better. It’s about knowing your truth. Stay true to yourself. Stay away from competition. Visualize the vision, experience the outcome, and give freely what you have to offer the world. Nothing from this life can be taken with you. Be what you can for the world. You lose what you don’t give.
Bringing about positive change and serving others becomes less important than how it is accomplished. Even though you may feel hurt when others criticize your ideas or take credit for your innovations, remembering the benefits for all will often ease the pain. Your key is evaluating whether it is serving a common good before offering yourself. Being grateful for your contributions would bring you peace. The time may come to move on to a more collaborative team and a more receptive and appreciative audience.
Achieving your purpose and living your passion will be rewarding. The recognition will come. It is the heart & soul that will always triumph over the mind & ego. As you travel along the journey of your career and life, you’ll need to stay true to your inner brilliance. Make sure these negative experiences don’t undermine your worth. The negative experience is not you. It is often the negativity we experience from others that reflects more on them than on us.
Our lenses, gifts, wiring, and experiences differ. Diversities are gifts of life which bring us together and create a society, a solution, a technology, etc., for the benefit of all. Be confident when others fail to see your vision. By staying true to yourself, you’ll attract the right people, the right opportunities, and the right support. Be humble and aim high.
The best life is one where we no longer strive for more. Our sense of contentment is a reflection of how we should view ourselves and what we are given. It is self-defeating to be anxious for more or to envy others. When we are constantly hoping for more happiness, we are in a constant state of frustration.
In other words, what matters most? Not too much, not too little.
Now is a great time to appreciate what we have. Besides life itself, there is family, friends, and everything else that surrounds us naturally. All we have to do is take a moment to look around. It may be time to make a gratitude list of all the good things we have to be grateful for.
Do you have people in your life that you would miss terribly if they were no longer there? A walk offers many things to appreciate and feel good about, don’t you think? The flowers, trees, birds, and clouds in the sky offer a feeling of calmness and harmony. It could be a caterpillar crossing the sidewalk or a neighbor waving at you. There’s nothing more adorable than a cute pup or kid enjoying a special moment.
The happiness, peace, and enjoyment of life now just makes sense if you are satisfied and at peace with oneself and others.

Would you really be happy if your circumstances changed? Preconceived ideas of happiness prevent us from being satisfied until they are realized.
Life isn’t always easy – even after certain things happen, we aren’t satisfied! As a result, we shift our focus to something bigger and better, believing that will make us happy (or happier). Never do we allow ourselves to be content. How about you?
Even if not everything in your life is perfect, you can decide to be happy RIGHT NOW. Here are 3 ways to get started:
1) Be grateful. One of the most powerful attitudes is gratitude. You feel good and your focus shifts from what you don’t have to what you do have! By focusing on what you are grateful for (even the really small blessings), you worry less about what is lacking. The result?Happiness spreads more widely!
2) Take a moment to breathe. Being rushed and scattered all the time makes it difficult to be happy and content. Make time for yourself to relax, dream, and enjoy life’s simpler moments to be truly happy. Make it a habit to do things you love every day. Listen to great music, read books that stimulate your imagination, go for long walks, and just enjoy life.
3) Love the journey.Some of us base our expectations on far-off results, such as completing goals. Our belief is that everything will be perfect once we reach our destination. Enjoying the journey to your destination can lead to much success! Embrace every moment as an opportunity to work towards higher goals. Whenever you achieve a goal, feel pride in your accomplishment. Make it a worthwhile journey and you’ll enjoy the end result even more!
You need to understand that happiness is often a choice you make each moment. Although some serious situations make it difficult to feel happy, most often we allow the little things to disturb us and block any happiness we might otherwise experience. Embrace happiness, and you’ll reap the rewards!
Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done.
I’m lucky that my to-do list is short. On it, I have a few things to do, but I keep putting off the one I need to do first. It’s on my to-do list to write a book. As part of the book, I have so much to do. Photos need to be collected, edited, and written about. Putting together the layout and everything is on my to-do list also.
That’s something I have to change. Hopefully I’ll be able to finish my to-do list soon. It’s good I only have a few things on there.
