Good morning! When Ann Landers was asked to give advice about successful living, she shared the above quote. I hadn't heard this quote until this past week, when I read it in a book I had received for Christmas. Interestingly, that same day, Judy sent the quote through to me. I figured that was a sign to put it at the top of the list for Good Mornings!

When I read Ann's words, I was filled with a feeling of "Yes!! That is what it takes to live our best life. We don't shy from trouble, we stare it down." As a business owner and an Entrepreneur, I have lived this quote over and over. There is nothing more rewarding than the day you realize that within you have everything you need and are perfectly capable of overcoming whatever life throws your way. When we get to the place where we can welcome all of life-the good, the bad and the ugly-with confidence, we know a peace beyond measure.

Your Turn:
Realize that we cannot run from trouble, it is an inevitable part of life. However we can learn to rise above it. Welcome all of life's experiences-the good, the bad and the ugly. Challenge yourself to look these experiences in the eye and use them as a catalyst to become the "very best" you can be.

Your Affirmation:
I am bigger than any troubles.
