Stephanie is talking about the Law of Attraction... Because it's always working, you get more of whatever you're thinking about most. So think about what's good every morning!

  Just had to reblog this because it is all so true. The ONLY reason not to buy now is that you plan to move out of the community within the next 2-3 years.

Do you remember the last seminar you attended? How about the one before that? How much of what you learned that day have you actually started using? Do you even know where you put those careful notes you took? If you’re like most of us, you took good notes and had every intention of coming home a...

A while back I wrote about using an article site such as EzineArticles.com in addition to your Active Rain posts. I  believe it's a good idea, because different people are searching in different places. As much as we love Active Rain, not everyone knows they should be coming here for the best inf...

A couple of days ago I came out of the grocery store with a cart full of things to load into my car. As I walked out I saw a man squatted down next to a small car, talking to a woman inside. I didn't think much of it, but as I worked to load my groceries, I couldn't help but overhear part of the ...
