Fall is Here!!

Autumnleaveswallpapercollectio

Are you ready?  Fall is here and I am hardly ready for the holidays that will shortly (90 days) be upon us!  What are you doing to prepare for the fall!  Are you an avid crafter and find this time a grand time of creativity?  My creativity has been waning but therefore so has the moon.

I need to recharge my creativity bank - how will you do it?

Creatively yours,

Pondering

The work week is winding down.  And I'm curious how often are your decisions based on finances?  Does everything you do revolve around the 
"the almighty buck"?  eReviewing your prior decisions made around the $ were they good choices for your internal path?  However, when you have chosen to share your $, were those better choices?  We are so conditioned to be "striving" for more, more, more, when is enough, enough?  Just some things to ponder as you through your day to day.

Remember to make it count.

Choices

Choice2

Each and every day we are presented with many choices but those big "life changing" choices really makes one stop and wonder "will I make the right choice".  You have to put the question out there and you will just "know" the right answer when you get it - make sense?

YES YOU CAN!!

Path

I am feeling a little drained this morning. I had a very long day yesterday but managed to complete almost every task on my daily goal list.

However,  I need to remember that to accomplish that goal I need to start.  Another great quote is:

A mile is a trial but an inch is a cinch! (See you at the Top, Zig Ziglar)

Have a great day!

Happy Monday Morning to You!

Well, we've moved on to a new work week!  What plans do you have in store to make this week great?  Are you tracking to your goal list?  I'm trying but the first few weeks of any new habit are the hardest to work through.  BUT once you do - oh it is so easy after that.  

Here's to making it count.

Off to Harvest Festival @ Cobb Elementary School

Hi All,

I'm off to the Harvest Festival @ Cobb Elementary School.  Any of you locals going to be there?

Let me know and thanks.

End of this Week or Start of a new Week

Hi all,

Well, I've officially started a "goal list".  I've been reading a great motivational book that stated "you can't win if there's not a goal" (goal post, goal net or goal list)!  How true is that?  Really, if you don't know what your goals are in life - how in the world can you succeed at it?  So I've spent the morning designing a spreadsheet to track (& chart) my daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly & annual goals.  Wow when you look at it like that it's a little over whelming.  But on a positive note one of my goals is to fine tune some of my computer skills and just doing this spreadsheet & charting the progress is helping with that goal.

Do you have a goal list?  If so how long have you been keeping it and how often do you review.  

Wishing everyone a great Sunday!

Creatively yours,

Jill Noël

Friday is here!

Wow I just got done with a marathon session of email replies for work
(4:30 am - 12:30pm)! Always a good feeling when you've completed a
task! However all my email replies generate more emails back to me -
it's a vicious cycle and a never ending one at that unless you quit!

However it is now officially the start of my weekend - hooray!

Wishing you a great weekend everyone!

Kind regards,

Jill Noël

Half way through the week!

Crystal-ball

Hi all,

Well our weather is definitely changing here (already).  And for me, this is the season that has historically been my most creative time.  Everyday items become works of art and I focus on the creative energy that went into the design of it.  This is not a conscious choice however it is something that I am now consciously aware of.  With each unfolding year I'm going deeper within myself to understand the "MYSTERY OF ME".  It's amazing to read my journals over the years to see the changes I've made within me by being in the moment and maintaining (okay trying to) a positive attitude with each and every issue, decision and project that comes my way.  Again all part of "Making it Count" on this journey of life!

Hope you have a great day and be sure to take time (even 5 minutes) to focus on you today and every day because when you do the rest just seems to fall into place. 

Sincerely,

Jill Noël

Happy Birthday Brittney!

September 13, 2011

Wow - 21 years ago today my beautiful daughter Brittney was born.  Some times it seems like just yesterday and then, of course, other days it seems longer than that!

I'm wishing her a beautiful birthday even though she is in a "valley" in her life right now which means she will be going back up to the "peak" real soon.

Wishing her the best this life has to offer and, as always, helping her to "make it count".

Have a beautiful day my friends.

Sincerely,

Jill Noël

End of the Weekend

Hi all,   The weekend is coming to an end and the 10th anniversary of 9/11 is behind us.  We will never forget and it feels as if it were yesterday.   I tried to 'MAKE IT COUNT" - did you?  My creative energy was flowing as the leaves are starting to fall.   Have a great week.  

Regards,

Jill Noël
