Naturally Positive

Taking a positive approach to life will bring many rich rewards. Yet forcing yourself to be positive is not the way to get there.


Forcing yourself to be positive is not being positive. Fighting against negativity is not being positive.


When you merely try to be positive, your focus is on the trying and not on any actual positive substance. The very act of trying to be positive is a clear sign that you're not.


Instead, allow yourself to be naturally positive by experiencing, in your mind or in your world, what you truly love. Let go of the striving and let love be.


If positive thinking is just another item on your list of things to do, it won't bring you any real value. Instead of making it a chore to be positive, just give it room and reason to easily and naturally grow within you.


Seek less judgment and feel more joy. Be naturally positive and authentically empowered.

Diana Ross: It's My Turn Lyrics

I can't cover up my feelings in the name of love
Or play it safe for a while that was easy
And if living for myself is what I'm guilty of
Go on and sentence me I'll still be free

It's my turn to see what I can see
I hope you'll understand this time's just for me
Because it's my turn with no apologies
I've given up the truth to those I've tried to please

But now it's my turn if I don't have all the answers
At least I know i'll take my share of chances
Ain't no use in holding on when nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain 'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go 'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn with no more room for lies
For years I've seen my life through someone else's eyes
And now it's my turn to try and find my way
And if I should get lost at least I'll own today

It's my turn, Yes, it's my turn
And there ain't no use in holding on when nothing stays the same
So I'll let it rain 'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go 'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn to see what I can see
I hope you'll understand this time's just for me
Because it's my turn to turn and say goodbye
I sure would like to know that you're still on my side

Because it's my turn it's my turn
It's my turn to start from number one
Trying to undo some damage that's been done

But now it's my turn to reach and touch the sky
No one's gonna say at least I didn't try

It's my turn, Yes, it's my turn
It's my turn, It's my turn
It's my turn

Total Acceptance




It is through total acceptance of what is, that you gain total control of what can be. By allowing life to come to you, you empower your purpose to radiate out from you.


You cannot successfully fight against what is. For the moment you choose to fight, you're fighting against a past that cannot be changed.


Accept the energy that comes to you in this now moment, whatever flavor that energy may be. Apply that energy to create a beautiful future filled with joy and positive purpose.


Embrace each circumstance as it comes into your awareness. By doing so you will gain access to its positive possibilities.


Live from a place of deep-seated peace. Instead of jumping into a reaction at every turn of events, exude a consistent, confident purpose.


Lovingly accept every bit of life as it comes your way. And you will always find much to truly love.

Foremost expert

There is no other person who is smart enough, or experienced enough, or informed enough or insightful enough to tell you how to live. That's up to you.

Certainly the advice and guidance of others can be extremely valuable. Yet when it comes to expressing and fulfilling the best of who you are, you are the world's foremost expert.


It feels good to be praised and it hurts to be criticized. Always keep in mind, though, that those who offer their opinions of you cannot possibly see the whole picture.

Your life is your responsibility. That is simultaneously a sobering obligation and a fantastic opportunity.


Successful living is difficult work and yet you are absolutely qualified to do it. You are worthy and capable of creating and enjoying whatever it is that truly fulfills you.


Make the commitment, do the work, accept the responsibility that is necessary for that fulfillment. Live the outstanding life that is yours to experience.

The Voice of Your Purpose

Actions are an absolute necessity for meaningful accomplishment. So are dreams.

For if you cannot dream it, and envision it, you will not achieve it. When it tugs at your very soul, that is when you will make it happen.

You are not an unthinking, unfeeling machine that can blindly serve just any agenda. Your effectiveness comes from your purposeful involvement with what you do.

There is a reason why you feel everything you feel. Those feelings are the voice of your purpose.

It is difficult and challenging to follow those dreams that flow from your purpose. Yet when the purpose is true, it will feel stronger than any challenge.

Listen to the voice of your purpose. Dream and do, and give to life the unique value that is yours to create.

-- Ralph Marston

You are the Company You Keep!

The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve. Any time you tolerate mediocrity in others, it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people.

As you grow, your associates will change. Some of your friends will not want you to go on. They will want you to stay where they are. Friends that don’t help you climb will want you to crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dream. Those that don’t increase you will eventually decrease you.

Consider this:
Never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has a right to speak in your life. You are certain to get the worst of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person. Don’t follow anyone who’s not going anywhere…

With some people you spend an evening: with others you invest it. Be careful where you stop to inquire for directions along the road of life. Wise is the person who fortifies his life with the right friendships. If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights. “A mirror reflects a man’s face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses.”

The simple but true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you closely associate – for the good and the bad.

Celine Dion- Call The Man

Close the door
Shut the world away
All the fight's gone from this wounded heart
Across the floor
Dreams and shadows play
Like wind blown refugees

Call the man
Who deals in love beyond repair
He can heal the world
Of hearts in need of care
Shine a light ahead
When the next step is unclear
Call the man
He's needed here

I close my eyes
I remember when
Your sweet love filled this empty room
The tears I cry
Won't bring it back again
Unless the lonely star should fall

Call the man
Who deals in love beyond repair
He can heal the world
Of hearts in need of care
Shine a light ahead
When the next step is unclear
Call the man
He's needed here

Needed in the chaos and confusion
From the plains to city hall
Needed where the proud who walk the wire are set to fall

Call the man
Who deals in once upon a time
Maybe he
Can mend this broken heart of mine
Shine a light ahead
Now the future isn't clear
Call the man
He's needed here
Call the man
He's needed here
