- 8893313 Excellence is Your FriendIn a world that praises speed and efficiency above all, the concept of excellence often takes a backseat. We're constantly told to do more, be more, and achieve more. However, excellence is your friend. Think about this... What if excellence is the missing ingredient in your pursuit of success? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co What if, instead of rushing through life, you paused to savor the journey and truly excel in all that you do? Many of us fall into the trap of thinking that the key to success is in doing more and going faster. We believe that taking shortcuts and cutting corners will lead us to our goals quicker. However, what we fail to realize is that true excellence lies in the details, in the dedication, and in the commitment to doing things right. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reach for excellence! When we rush through life, we miss out on the beauty of the journey. We forget to enjoy the process, to experience the highs and the lows, and to appreciate the landscapes along the way. Excellence is not just about achieving a goal; it's about becoming the best version of ourselves in the process. So, next time you feel the urge to speed through a task or take a shortcut, remember that excellence is your friend. Embrace the journey, savor the moments, and take pride in doing things well. When you aim for excellence, you're not just reaching for a goal; you're striving to become who you want to be. Let excellence be your guiding light, your driving force, and your ultimate destination. Take A.I.M. – Excellence is your friend! "Be present. Be incredible.

- 8903312 The Shortest NoteIf constant noise and endless distractions rain on your parade every day, how can you rise above all the things? Remember, busyness doesn't get you to the next level. The shortest note is long enough. Because you and I both know-- we live in a world filled with countless interruptions. And we just can't blame it on the dinner, dishes, and dogs. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co How can you lessen the load to do what matters? How can you see beyond your busyness? How can you live your dreams without burying yourself first? The K.I.S.S. ~ Less is more! 1. Embrace Simplicity: Simplify your surroundings by decluttering your living space. Create a minimalist environment that allows you to focus on what truly matters. Let go of material possessions that no longer serve a purpose and prioritize objects that bring you joy and peace. 2. Subtract What Doesn't Work: You don't need to do stuff just because you think you should or you think someone else thinks you should. 3. Know Your Non-negotiable: What matters most to you? What do you need in this season? Remember, living a fulfilling life doesn't have to be complicated or overwhelming. "The shortest note is long enough." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

- 8913311 He Refreshes My Soul"The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul." ~ Psalm 23:1-2 (NIV) In the midst of life's chaos and uncertainties, finding rest and peace can feel like an elusive dream. The demands of work, family, and responsibilities can leave us feeling drained and overwhelmed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co This exquisite imagery of a shepherd tenderly caring for his sheep resonates deeply with the human soul. It speaks of a relationship of trust and guidance, where the Shepherd, our God, ensures that we lack nothing. Just as a shepherd provides for and protects his flock, God takes care of our every need and leads us to places of rest and peace. The image of lying down in green pastures evokes a sense of tranquility and abundance. It symbolizes a space of rest and nourishment where our souls can find solace and renewal. In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to forget to pause, to breathe, to rest. Yet, God, our Shepherd, invites us to rest in His provision, to trust in His care. The K.I.S.S. ~ He refreshes my soul! Moreover, the mention of being led beside quiet waters brings to mind a sense of calm and serenity. The gentle flow of the waters mirrors the ebb and flow of God's grace in our lives. It is in these moments of stillness that we can hear His voice, feel His presence, and be rejuvenated in our spirits. In a world that often feels out of control, the reminder that God is in charge, that He shepherds us with love and care, is a balm to our weary souls. Psalm 23:1-2 reassures us that we can find rest in Him, knowing that He leads us to places of peace and restoration. As we navigate the challenges and trials of life, may we find comfort in the promise of Psalm 23:1-2. May we trust in the Shepherd who guides us, rests with us, and refreshes our souls. Let us rest in the assurance that God is in control, and in His hands, we lack nothing. "Be present. Be incredible.

- 8923310 Can You Feel the Love Tonight?Many of us long for that deeper level of intimacy when it comes to maintaining a healthy and passionate relationship with our spouse. Can you feel the love tonight? We yearn for a connection that goes beyond the physical and dives into the realm of true emotional and sexual fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co What is your love life like? Are you getting what you want physically and emotionally? And most of the time, we don't stop long enough to think about whether we are getting "fulfilled" until it comes to that "moment." But what can we do to nurture our relationship and create an atmosphere of love that may naturally lead to greater intimacy? The K.I.S.S. ~ Know the heart more! And this comes with words, actions, and the emotional connection. Words have the power to heal, inspire, and ignite passion. Expressing our love through verbal communication is crucial to creating a stronger emotional bond with our spouse. Simple words of affirmation and praise can go a long way in making them feel loved and appreciated. Open communication is significant in building marital intimacy. Start small, perhaps with a compliment or a genuine 'thank you,' to convey your love and gratitude. These simple gestures can lay a strong foundation for deeper emotional connection and, ultimately, greater intimacy. Actions, on the other hand, speak louder than words. Our daily actions can profoundly impact our spouse's perception of our love and dedication. Small acts of kindness, such as making their favorite coffee in the morning or offering a foot massage after a long day, can demonstrate your commitment to their happiness and well-being. By actively seeking opportunities to be thoughtful and supportive, we cultivate an environment of love and care, paving the way for a more connected and intimate relationship. One important aspect to remember is that intimacy doesn't solely revolve around physical affection or sexual encounters. Emotional intimacy plays a significant role in creating a deeper connection with our spouse. Taking time to really listen, empathize, and engage in meaningful conversations can foster a profound sense of closeness. Emotionally connecting with your spouse can lead to a greater understanding of one another's desires and needs, ultimately enhancing your relationship's physical aspect. Incorporating a love language into your daily interactions can also help bridge the emotional gap and stimulate greater intimacy. Dr. Gary Chapman, renowned relationships expert and author of "The 5 Love Languages," emphasizes the importance of understanding our partner's love language. By identifying and catering to their specific needs, whether it's acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or receiving gifts, we can effectively communicate our love and promote intimacy in a way that resonates deeply with our spouse. Ultimately, earning and nurturing intimacy requires a combination of words, actions, and emotional connection. By consistently expressing our love, showing appreciation for our spouse, and actively engaging in their emotional world, we can create an atmosphere of love that naturally leads to greater intimacy. As we continue on this journey of love and growth, let us remember that intimacy is not something to be earned or obtained. Instead, it is a beautiful byproduct of a healthy and thriving relationship built on a solid foundation of love, respect, and open communication. So, take the time to speak words of love, demonstrate your affection through actions, and foster emotional connection— and you will undoubtedly feel the love tonight. "Be present. Be incredible.

- 8933309 What's All the Noise About?In the busy world we live in, it's no wonder that chaos can often find its way into our homes. But fear not! You can find the calm in the chaos when you hear yourself yelling, "What's all the noise about?" There really is calm around the corner, literally and figuratively. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co We have compiled three effective strategies that can help you regain control and bring harmony back to your family life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Harmonize with your words and actions! 1. Establish Routine "In times of chaos and uncertainty, routine provides a foundation of stability for children and parents alike," says Dr. Amanda Johnson, child psychologist. By establishing a daily routine, you provide your children with predictability, which reduces anxiety and improves behavior. Set specific bedtimes and wake-up times, allocate time for homework and chores, and incorporate regular family meals. Posting a visual schedule can also help children stay organized and understand what to expect each day. 2. Delegate and Share Responsibilities As parents, we often try to do it all ourselves. However, involving the entire family in managing household tasks not only lightens your load but also teaches children valuable life skills. Create a chore chart and assign age-appropriate tasks to each family member. This not only helps with the division of labor but also promotes teamwork and a sense of responsibility. Remember to express gratitude and praise for their efforts to encourage a positive atmosphere. 3. Care for Your Well-being As they say, you can't pour from an empty cup. Taking care of your own well-being is crucial in managing chaos. Carve out some "me time" every day to recharge and focus on activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading, taking a bubble bath, or practicing yoga. Prioritizing self-care isn't selfish; it's an essential component of being a patient and present parent. Managing chaos in the family is possible with the right strategies in place. Establishing a routine, involving the entire family in household responsibilities, and prioritizing self-care will help you regain control and create a harmonious environment for everyone. Remember, the key lies in consistency and open communication. By implementing these strategies, you'll find yourself equipped to manage the chaos and bring harmony back to your family life. So take a deep breath, and let the journey to a calmer home begin. "Be present. Be incredible.

- 8943308 Goodbye, Things!In a world that glorifies busyness and accumulating material possessions, it's easy to get caught up in the idea that more is always better. But what if you flipped that? Goodbye, things! Less is more to live a life well-lived. Because unfortunately, we proudly wear our busy badge of honor, as if filling our lives with countless commitments and a surplus of stuff thinking that somehow it equates to success and fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co But what if, deep down, we know that this constant busyness and clutter is holding us back from truly living a life well-lived? Renowned author and minimalist, Fumio Sasaki, once said, "Minimalism is about knowing my true needs, and saying goodbye to everything that doesn't serve me well." These words carry an important message - that in order to live a life of purpose and meaning, we must learn to let go of the excess and focus on what truly matters. Letting go of physical possessions can be a powerful act of liberation. It allows us to create space, both physically and mentally, for the things that truly bring us joy and fulfillment. As Marie Kondo, renowned decluttering expert and author, wisely advises, "The space in which we live should be for the person we are becoming now, not for the person we were in the past." The K.I.S.S. ~ Goodbye, things! But clutter isn't limited to just physical belongings. Our lives can become packed with overflowing schedules, endless to-do lists, and commitments that drain our energy and leave us feeling overwhelmed. It's important to recognize that our worth is not determined by how much we can fit into a day or how many tasks we can check off a list. Instead, our worth lies in our ability to be present, to connect with others, and to make a positive difference in the world. Melissa Camara Wilkins, author of "Permission Granted: Be Who You Were Made to Be and Let Go of the Rest," beautifully captures this sentiment when she says, "We can't build a meaningful life on mindless accumulation and constant busyness. To live a life that matters, we have to be willing to let go of what doesn't." Letting go can be daunting, but it opens up a world of possibilities. It allows us to free ourselves from the shackles of materialism and busyness, enabling us to make space for the things that truly light us up - whether that's pursuing a passion, spending quality time with loved ones, or engaging in activities that bring us peace and contentment. As you bid farewell to the unnecessary distractions and embrace a more simplified lifestyle, you take a stand for yourelf and your well-being. Create room for personal growth, self-reflection, and self-care. By letting go, you make a conscious choice to live with intention and purpose, cultivating a life that is centered around what truly matters to you. Today, let's take a moment to reflect on the things that may be cluttering your life and preventing you from living the life you truly desire. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!! Let's have the courage to say goodbye to what no longer serves us, so that we may create space for what truly matters. And when you do so, you not only serve yourself but also have the opportunity to serve others in a way that is authentic and true. It's palpable and real! Today, say a heartfelt goodbye-- "Goodbye, things!" that hold you back, and ready yourself to take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation!

- 8953307 Count Your Blessings, Not Your BurdensWhether we want to admit it or not, we can be very rude to ourselves by threatening irrational actions because we don't like what we see in the mirror. On this Valentine's Day, count your blessings, not your burdens. Who do you see in the mirror? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Are you one who complains about your wrinkles? The laugh lines that won't go away? In fact, your frown lines become more pronounced when you look in the mirror. Why is that? Are you counting your burdens and not your blessings? You have one body and need to care for it in a way that no one else can. And speaking words of hurt and ugliness defeats the purpose of being kind. It defeats the purpose of loving yourself right where you're at. Now, you might be saying, "Kristianne, you just don't understand what I've been through. I've tried to lose weight for decades. I've tried to gain strength and flexibility. But I just can't get my body to do what it needs to do." I get it. Living a healthy life is not easy. It takes commitment on a daily basis, moment by moment. But you have to get in the game of life. You have got to stop the excuses and count your blessings, not your burdens. You get to see what you have, all the good your body does for you. So I want you to take a deep breath. This probably isn't something you've done on Valentine's Day before. Love yourself! The K.I.S.S. ~ Love yourself! You do this in a unique manner for yourself, not in a way that is prideful or to the detriment of others. It's to lift up who you are so you can experience the love God has for you in your every day. 1. Nurture Your Mind You do this by growing gratitude for your reflection, by speaking kind words to yourself when you look in the mirror, and smiling at who you are becoming. You might be struggling with where you are right now. You might want to be down 27 more pounds. But that doesn't make you less than because your weight is more than. Your conversation with yourself might sound like this. "Oh girl, look at you! You are going to conquer your day with attitude and beauty. Your eyes are going to see those who need your attention. Your smile is going to wake up hope in others. And your heart is going to lead your steps today!" Nurture your mind! 2. Nourish Your Body You do this by eating foods that feed your mind, body, and spirit with the goodness of vitamins and minerals, by intentionally moving your muscles and joints to gain strength and flexibility, and by sleeping so you have the energy to be a living legacy every day. New Year's resolutions are long gone, and the Super Bowl is over. But your life is here today! So treat your body well! This Valentine's Day, don't go get junk chocolate. Spend a couple of dollars more and get the good chocolate that has chocolate beans that help your body and are more beneficial. Why put crap chemicals in your body? You are made for more. So treat your body well. Nourish it well! 3. Embrace Who You Are Becoming You might have a real battle with who you see in the mirror. Your reflection isn't who you remember or even who you want to see. But, my friend, you have to be kind to yourself before you can be kind to others. "Love your neighbor as yourself." ~ Mark 12:31 You have today to make a difference, to make an impact. So do it well by embracing who you are becoming. Celebrate what you do today because of who you were yesterday. You becoming one percent better every day makes room for growth in your mind, body, and spirit. You make choices every day. So let those choices exploit who you are becoming. This Valentine's Day, know that you are willing to make the choices that will change the trajectory of your every day so you can live a life well lived. This is showing your reflection in your heart the love and appreciation you deserve. You are made for more! "Wake up your heart and open your eyes to see the glory God put inside. Count your blessings, not your burdens. You were made to shine!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

- 8963306 Embrace Your Unstoppable ConfidenceWhy is it that when we face adversity or question our abilities, we immediately sink back and allow ourselves to become overwhelmed? Today, you get to choose to embrace your unstoppable confidence! As we navigate through life's obstacles (because you know we're gonna have them), it's crucial to remember that even when pressed against the wall, incredible possibilities can emerge. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Maya Angelou said, "Nothing can dim the light which shines from within." When faced with difficulties, it's important to tap into our inner resilience, that strength within us. And that comes from precious experiences, failures, learned lessons, and valuable insights from mentors and those close. You possess an untapped well of strength that can be harnessed to overcome any obstacle. Remember, no matter how challenging the situation may be, your unwavering confidence can serve as a guiding light, illuminating the path ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace your unstoppable confidence! The only one who can put out your light is you! Eleanor Roosevelt said, "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face." There is nothing to fear except fear itself; because if that's what's stopping you, imagine what you're missing. Embrace your unstoppable confidence! Fear can often be the biggest roadblock on our path to success. However, by confronting our fears and pushing past them, we unlock the doors to infinite possibilities. If you recognize that fear is not an indication of weakness, but an opportunity for growth and self-discovery, imagine what's possible. Embrace fear as a catalyst to your unstoppable confidence! Now if you are one who is saying, "Kristianne, you just don't know where I'm at right now." C.S. Lewis said, "Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny." What if your unstoppable confidence leads you to exactly where you're supposed to be right now in this season? My friend, you have what it takes to reach your dreams and achieve your goals. So get ready every day and dress with confidence. Confidence that keeps pushing you when you get tired. Confidence that is bold or reserved where needed. Confidence that keeps your light shining brightly. Confidence that jumps higher than expected. Confidence that breeds hope through your actions. Go to your closet, and look for the bold colors that will announce to you that you're ready for battle; the battle to embrace your unstoppable confidence. And if you are wondering if you're cut out for this, borrow my confidence in you!! You got this!!! I'm screaming from the rooftops...You got this!!! Light the flame by taking A.I.M.!

- 8973305 Get Out Of Your HeadIn a culture that glorifies Monday morning quarterbacking, dissecting the past, and scrutinizing the future, it's time to shift your focus. The football game is over, but the journey of presence is now! Get out of your head! Imagine this: you're sitting at a picturesque café, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the air, and a gentle breeze tickling your skin. As the world around you buzzes with life, you find yourself lost in a sea of thoughts, worries, and regrets. Meanwhile, the beauty of the present moment slips through your fingers, unnoticed and forgotten. Sound familiar? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Oftentimes, we live a foggy life with little thought for our next actions because all we do is react to the stimuli in front of us. We habitually place one foot in front of the other, even to the point where a trip over a step becomes just part of the day. Life is too precious! You were created on purpose, for a purpose, here on earth and in Heaven. So whether your team won the Super Bowl or you're sitting back wishing that the coach called a different play or the Ref called a missed penalty, you've got today to make it count. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make it count! "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present." - Kristianne Wargo In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of thoughts, worries, and distractions that constantly flood our minds. Maybe you've found youself daydreaming about the past or anxiously planning for the future, missing out on the beauty and opportunities that exist right in front of you. Are you ready to break free from the confines of your own head and learn how to be fully present in the moment? 1. Practice Presence Mindfulness is the art of bringing your full attention to the present moment without judgment. It encourages us to observe our thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise, rather than being carried away by them. By practicing mindfulness, you can cultivate a deeper connection with the world around you, heightening your awareness of the present moment. Engaging in activities such as meditation, or simply dedicating a few minutes each day to focus solely on your breath can significantly improve your ability to be present. As author Eckhart Tolle once said, "Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life." 2. Limit So You Can Look In today's technology-driven era, our attention is constantly being hijacked by smartphones, social media, and the never-ending stream of notifications. These distractions can rob us of precious moments and hinder our ability to fully engage with the world around us. Set aside dedicated time each day to disconnect from digital devices and create a tech-free zone. By doing so, you'll have a chance to fully immerse yourself in conversations, appreciate the beauty of nature, and cherish the small moments that often go unnoticed. It's about seeing what you can't see because you limit so you can look. As tech entrepreneur Tristan Harris once said, "The most precious resource we all have is time." 3. Grow Gratitude Gratitude is a powerful mindset that helps shift our focus from what we lack to what we already have. By regularly practicing gratitude, we become more aware of the countless blessings and opportunities that surround us every day. Take a few minutes each morning or evening to reflect on the things you are grateful for, whether it's a loving family, good health, or even the simple pleasure of a warm cup of coffee. By consciously acknowledging and appreciating these blessings, you bring yourself into the present moment and cultivate a sense of contentment and fulfillment. As renowned psychologist Dr. Robert Emmons once said, "Gratitude is not about ignoring or denying the negative aspects of life. It's an affirmation that there is always something good to be found." You can break free from the confines of your mind and live a truly present life. Embrace the opportunities, connections, and joys in the here and now, and watch as your world transforms into a tapestry of meaningful moments. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present." "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

- 8983304 Victorious in LoveWhen we think of victory, our minds often turn to sports competitions, where teams strive to emerge triumphant. Yet, there is a far greater victory that every believer can experience, one that surpasses any earthly achievement. Victorious in love! And that victory is found in God's incredible love for us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co In the grand game of life, we sometimes face challenges that can leave us feeling defeated and discouraged. But in those moments, we must remember that God's love is unwavering, unending, and undefeated. In fact, the Bible reassures us that "neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:38-39, NIV). God's love is not mere sentimentality; it is an unshakable force that empowers us to triumph over every obstacle. God's love is what makes you an overcomer! Just as the winners of the Super Bowl receive a championship ring as a symbol of their victory, we, too, can wear the assurance of God's love as our everlasting trophy on our hearts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Victorious in love! Throughout the Bible, we find countless examples of God's unfailing love. In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were in bondage and cried out to God for deliverance. In response, He parted the Red Sea and led them to freedom. This epic display of love demonstrates that God is not only aware of our struggles, but is also actively working on our behalf. Furthermore, the ultimate demonstration of God's love was showcased through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ. As stated in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (NIV). It is through Jesus' death and resurrection that you can experience true victory, knowing that you are eternally loved by God. So how do you tap into this victorious love? It starts by acknowledging our need for a relationship with God, and humbly accepting His invitation to experience His love. You can do this by regularly spending time with Him through prayer, reading His Word, and meditating on His promises. The more you immerse yourself in His love, the more your faith will grow, enabling you to overcome adversities with confidence. In the Super Bowl of life, the opposition may be fierce (Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers), but we have a secret weapon-- and it's God's love. Let's embrace it, running the race with endurance, knowing that we are victorious in love. As 1 Corinthians 15:57 reminds us, "But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (NIV). My friend, no matter what you are facing today, remember that God's love is your constant companion and source of strength. Trust in His love, for it never fails, and allow it to propel you into a life of victory. As you dive deep into the unfathomable depths of God's love, may you experience a profound sense of joy, peace, and assurance that surpasses any Super Bowl triumph. "Love never fails." - 1 Corinthians 13:8a (NIV). "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

- 8993303 Love Like a Super Bowl ChampionSuper Bowl champions may have fame, fortune, and a championship title, but they can also teach us a thing or two about love. Like in football, love requires dedication, intentionality, and a strong game plan. Love like a Super Bowl champion! As Valentine's Day approaches, it's the perfect time to up your love game and become an incredible spouse. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Here are three things you can do to love deeper and more intentionally, just like a Super Bowl champion. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love deeper and intentionally! 1. Have a Winning Mindset In football, champions never doubt their abilities or the potential of their team. Apply this winning mindset to your marriage by believing in the strength and potential of your relationship. Remind yourself and your spouse of the love and commitment you share, especially during challenging times. Trust in your love, have confidence in your teamwork, and face any marital challenges like the champion that you are. 2. Practice Daily Acts of Love Super Bowl champions don't become winners overnight; they put in the hours of practice each day. Similarly, cultivating a deep and intentional love requires consistent effort and small acts of love every day. Surprise your spouse with a heartfelt love note, a cup of their favorite coffee, or a random act of kindness. Show appreciation for their presence in your life through small gestures that speak volumes about your love and commitment. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo mentions, "Love is not just a feeling; it is a choice we make every day." Practice love daily, and watch your marriage thrive. 3. Create Meaningful Experiences Super Bowl champions put their heart and soul into every game, and they create memories that last a lifetime. Apply this principle to your marriage by intentionally creating meaningful experiences together. Plan a special date night on Valentine's Day or any other occasion that honors your sweetheart. It could be a romantic dinner at home, a surprise picnic, or even a weekend getaway. Remember, it's not about the grand gestures but about the thoughtfulness and effort you put into making moments special and memorable for both of you. As Kristianne Wargo suggests, "Make each experience a chance to create lasting memories, adding bricks to the foundation of your love." As you embark on your journey to love like a Super Bowl champion, remember that it's the little things that make a big impact. Believe in the power of your love, practice daily acts of love, and create meaningful experiences that strengthen your bond. Love, just like winning a Super Bowl, requires dedication, strategy, and teamwork. So, gear up, embrace the challenge, and show your sweetheart what it means to love like a champion. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

- 9003302 Parent Like a Super Bowl MVPBeing a mom is a full-time job. Balancing the demands of raising children, managing the chaos of daily life, and juggling activities can be challenging. How do you parent like a Super Bowl MVP? Imagine, for a moment, raising up a son like Brock Purdy or Patrick Mahomes. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes, two talented quarterbacks with their own unique styles, would undoubtedly have valuable life lessons to impart to their children because of their moms. In anticipation of an incredible Super Bowl, why not look at our own families? Let's make this fun. Because as you know, parenting is not for the faint at heart. The K.I.S.S. ~ Are you ready for some football?!? Drawing from their football experiences, here are some lessons they might teach with corresponding football analogies: 1. Never be afraid to take a risk and go for it. Sometimes, the greatest rewards come from stepping out of your comfort zone and making that bold pass downfield. Just like in football, taking calculated risks and embracing challenges can lead to extraordinary opportunities. 2. Always work hard and give your best effort. And this is both on and off the field. Football teaches us the importance of dedication, practice, and perseverance. The same principles apply to life. By putting in the time and effort to improve yourself and pursue your goals, you set yourself up for success. Why not do that for the family, for the kiddos? 3. Embrace teamwork and value collaboration. Football is a team sport, and success is built on trust and effective communication. Teach your children the importance of being a team player, supporting others, and working together towards common goals. Just like a well-executed football play, when everyone works in harmony, remarkable things can happen. 4. Face adversity with resilience and a positive mindset. In football, there will be games where everything seems to go wrong, but a great quarterback rises above the challenges and uses them as fuel for a comeback. Similarly, in life, setbacks and obstacles are inevitable. Teach your children to stay resilient, learn from failures, and maintain a positive attitude. It's not about avoiding adversity, but rather how they respond to it that matters. 5. Adapt and contribute from the sidelines. In football, injuries or circumstances may prevent a player from being on the field. However, that doesn't mean their role becomes insignificant. Teach your children that when they can't actively participate, there are still ways to contribute and make a positive impact. They can support and encourage their teammates, provide insights from their unique perspective, and offer assistance from the sidelines. Just like a skilled backup quarterback, their presence and guidance can be invaluable to the team. 6. Lead by example and inspire others. As quarterbacks, Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes are responsible for leading their teams on and off the field. They demonstrate the power of strong leadership through their actions, decision-making, and motivation. Encourage your children to be leaders in their lives, inspiring others through character, integrity, and empathy. 7. Enjoy the journey and celebrate victories, big or small. Football seasons are filled with ups and downs, victories and defeats. Teach your children to savor the journey, to appreciate the effort they put in, and to find joy in the process, regardless of the outcome. Just like in football, the moments of triumph and shared experiences with teammates and loved ones make the journey worthwhile. By instilling these values and lessons and using football analogies to reinforce their teachings, Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes would guide their children toward becoming resilient, teamwork-oriented, and goal-driven individuals who embrace challenges and pursue their dreams with passion.

- 9013301 Practice ProgressThere is a certain allure to the idea of perfection. Society hails it as the ultimate goal, the pinnacle of success. But what if perfection was not the endgame? Empower yourself - practice progress! In a world that often measures success by the destination reached, it is easy to become fixated on achieving flawless results. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co We strive for flawless performance at work, the perfect body, and faultless relationships. However, in our pursuit of perfection, we inadvertently stifle our growth and limit our potential. We set ourselves up to be stuck before we're even stuck! Perfectionism often creates an unyielding cycle of self-criticism and fear of failure. The constant drive for flawlessness can be paralyzing, preventing us from taking risks, making decisions, and embracing new experiences. But there is another way - the path of progress. The K.I.S.S. ~ Practice progress! Progress is the process of continuous growth, improvement, and evolution. It is about celebrating the small wins, the steps forward, and the lessons learned along the way. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Practice progress means embracing imperfection with open arms and finding joy in the journey rather than fixating on the destination." Embracing progress means accepting that growth is a gradual process. It means acknowledging that every misstep, setback, or failure is an opportunity for a comeback; learning and growth. Rather than viewing mistakes as a sign of defeat, reframe them as stepping stones, propelling you forward on your chosen path. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Practice progress involves taking intentional action every day. It means making decisions that align with your values and move you closer to where you want to be. It's about setting achievable goals and consistently taking small steps toward them. When you practice progress, comparison loses its power. The focus shifts from what others have achieved to one's own personal growth. What you're doing! With progress as the guiding light, you become inspired by your own journey, celebrating the unique milestones you reach along the way. As you embark on this path, it is essential to cultivate self-compassion. Learn to be kind to yourself, and embrace your flaws and imperfections as vital parts of who you are. By extending grace to yourself, you can find the courage to keep going even when the road ahead seems challenging. Remember, practice progress is not about discounting the significance of a goal. It is about embracing the journey and understanding that each step forward, no matter how small, brings you closer to your dreams. Free yourself from the shackles of perfectionism and embrace the transformative power of progress. By shifting your focus to the joys and lessons found along the way, you unlock your true potential to create your now. "Be present. Be incredible.

- 9023300 Live Well TodayIn the quest for healthy living, we often find ourselves overwhelmed by the idea of following the perfect plan, workout, or the perfect timing. But what if you shifted your perspective? Live well today! Each decision you make, each step you take, can contribute to a healthier, more fulfilling life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co What are you doing for today for your health? The K.I.S.S. ~ Live well today! 1. Nurture with Nutrients Mindful Eating: Nurture Your Body with Nutrient-Rich Choices The way we fuel our bodies has a profound impact on our overall well-being. Being mindful of the foods we consume enables us to make healthier choices that support our weight loss goals. Instead of indulging in processed snacks or fast food, choose nutrient-rich alternatives like fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Take the time to savor each bite, appreciating the flavors and nourishing your body. Plan your meals ahead, pack healthy snacks, and stay hydrated throughout the day. Remember, small, consistent steps lead to lasting change. "Nourishing your body with nutrient-rich foods is like giving yourself a daily gift of self-love and vitality." - Kristianne Wargo 2. Jump for Joy Active Lifestyle: Find Joy in Movement Exercise is not solely limited to the confines of a gym. Embrace an active lifestyle by finding joy in movement. Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine, whether it's a brisk walk during your lunch break, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or engaging in activities you love, such as dancing, hiking, or playing a sport. By making movement a central part of your day, you'll not only burn calories but also elevate your mood, boost energy levels, and improve overall well-being. 3. Care for a Cause Self-Care: Prioritize Mental and Emotional Health Living well today goes beyond physical aspects; it also encompasses mental and emotional well-being. Prioritize self-care by setting aside time for relaxation, stress reduction, and meaningful connections. Practice mindfulness techniques, such as meditation or deep breathing exercises, to calm the mind and reduce stress. Engage in activities that bring you joy, whether it's reading a book, listening to music, or spending quality time with loved ones. Remember, a healthy mind contributes to a healthy body. It's time to shift our focus from pursuing perfection and instead embrace the concept of living well today. By making mindful choices in our eating habits, finding joy in movement, and prioritizing our mental and emotional health, we can pave the way for a healthier lifestyle. Remember, it's the small decisions we make each day that add up to significant long-term changes. So, live well today, and let it be the foundation for a more vibrant, fulfilling life. "Living well today doesn't require perfection but presence, simply asking for awareness, intention, and the commitment to nurture your mind, body, and spirit in every moment." - Kristianne Wargo "Be present.

- 9033299 Fan the Flame!In a world filled with distractions and disappointments, it's all too easy to feel the flicker of our passions dimming. But you have dreams and desires. So stoke the embers of your passion and fan the flame! Life is a journey of ups and downs, and it is during the challenging moments that we truly test our determination and commitment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co When obstacles arise, it's natural to question our path and contemplate giving up. However, it is precisely during these times that we must fan the flame of our dreams and keep pushing forward. Where are you today in your dream? Is it still a dream? Is it on the back burner? Is there barely a spark? But as you know, with a dream, you have to be persistent. Persistence is the backbone of success. It's the unwavering belief in your dreams and the commitment to overcome obstacles that propel you toward your goals. When faced with setbacks or disappointments, remind yourself of the reasons why you started on this path. Reignite the fire within you by reconnecting with your passion and reminding yourself of the profound impact your dreams can have on your life and the lives of others, the world you touch. Remember that progress often occurs in small, incremental steps. It's easy to become overwhelmed when looking at the big picture and feeling like you're not making significant strides. But progress is progress, no matter how small. Celebrate each milestone, no matter how minor, and use it as fuel to keep moving forward. Every step brings you closer to your dream, and each experience, whether positive or negative, contributes to your growth and resilience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fan the flame! Surround yourself with a support network of individuals who believe in your dreams and encourage you to persevere. Seek out mentors or like-minded individuals who have crossed similar paths and can offer guidance and inspiration. Connect with those who have overcome challenges and achieved success, as their stories can serve as reminders that no dream is too big and no hurdle is insurmountable. Embrace the setbacks and failures as opportunities for growth, rather than reasons to abandon your dreams. It's often in adversity that we discover our true strengths and resilience. Learn from your mistakes, adapt your strategies, and keep moving forward with a newfound wisdom and determination. Nourish your creativity and find inspiration in unexpected places. Explore new avenues and seek out experiences that spark your imagination. Surround yourself with art, music, literature, and nature. Allow the beauty and wonder of the world to ignite your passion and rejuvenate your spirit. Above all, take care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. It's easy to neglect self-care when chasing after our dreams, but remember that maintaining your well-being is crucial for long-term success. Prioritize self-care activities that recharge your energy, reduce stress, and foster a positive mindset. When you are at your best, you can face challenges head-on and keep the flame of your dreams burning brightly. In the pursuit of your dreams, it's essential to remember that the journey is not always easy, but it's the challenges that make the destination even more rewarding. Stay persistent, stay focused, and keep fanning the flame within you. Embrace the inevitable ups and downs, for they are part of your unique story. With unwavering belief, determination, and persistence, you can overcome any obstacle and achieve the extraordinary. So, keep going, keep learning, and keep moving closer to your dream. You got this! And God's got you!!! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

- 9043298 Take the Plunge toward Your DreamsOften, the desire to fulfill our dreams and achieve our goals becomes tangled in the web of uncertainty and doubt. Do you drop your dreams, or do you take the plunge toward your dreams? A lot of the time, we hide how we really feel in our everyday lives by pretending to be someone we're not. We hide in shame, embarrassed by the lack of accomplishments or accolades. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co At some point, we think sharing our stories will make everything better, but embracing vulnerability is harder to do than to say. So in order to maintain the facade of perfection, we get stuck (or claim to be), because it's easier not to do than to do. Now some would eventually suggest that the mindset is key to moving forward. But how can you move forward when you're only looking backward? Something that might have been a comeback, continues to be a setback. When will this nightmare end? At what point can you take the plunge toward your dreams? The K.I.S.S. ~ Get G.U.T.S.Y.! Most of the time, we want to know what the results will be before we even try. There is no guarantee in life. But doesn't that make your dreams and goals more worthwhile? "You don't need to know where everything's going before you get there." ~ Kristianne Wargo Get G.U.T.S.Y.! G – Get Started Taking the first step is crucial. Often, fear and overthinking can hold us back from pursuing our dreams. It takes guts to overcome those barriers and get started. Start with a small action or task that will set you on the path towards your goal. Breaking the inertia and initiating momentum is key to progress. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo U – Unwavering Belief Believe in yourself and your dreams wholeheartedly. Cultivate unshakable self-confidence and a firm belief that you can achieve what you set out to do. Even in the face of challenges and setbacks, it takes guts to stay committed and unwavering in your belief. Trust in your abilities and keep faith in your vision. Believe in who you are becoming! T – Take Risks Taking calculated risks is essential for growth and success. It takes guts to step outside of your comfort zone and embrace uncertainty. Be willing to explore uncharted territories, try new approaches, and seize opportunities that come your way. Embrace challenges as chances to learn and grow, knowing that calculated risks often lead to extraordinary achievements. S – Stay Persistent Persistence is the key to overcoming obstacles and achieving long-term goals. It takes guts to keep going when faced with setbacks, rejections, or slow progress. Stay committed to your dreams and put in consistent effort. Develop resilience, learn from failures, and keep pushing forward with determination and endurance, even in the face of adversity. Y – Yield to Growth A "Gutsy" individual recognizes the importance of continuous personal and professional growth. Yielding to growth requires embracing a mindset of learning, open-mindedness, and adaptability. It takes guts to acknowledge areas for improvement, seek feedback, and actively pursue opportunities for personal growth and development. By being open to learning and embracing new challenges, you can achieve remarkable growth that propels you towards your goals and dreams. Harness the courage to step out of your comfort zone, challenge your limits, and unlock your full potential. "Within you lies the power to transform your dreams into reality. The possibilities are endless when you have the courage to take that first step. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Remember, your journey doesn't require you to have all the answers or know exactly where you're heading. It only demands that you take that leap of faith, trust in yourself, and embrace the beauty of the unknown. Life is a magnificent adventure waiting to unfold. Instead of allowing uncertainty to hinder your dreams and goals, remember that you don't need to know everything before you get there. Embrace vulnerability, embody a growth mindset, and cultivate a sense of adventure. Take the plunge, and you'll discover that the journey itself is where the magic lies. As Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Embrace the unknown, for it is within the unknown that extraordinary dreams come to life." "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

- 9053297 Rivers of Living Water37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." (John 7:37-38) These words from Jesus resonate deeply with anyone who longs to be seen and heard by God, who desires to be filled and overflowing with His love and presence. In a world where it is easy to feel overlooked and insignificant, these verses offer a promise of connection and purpose. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co The heart of God is not solely concerned with our eternal destination, but with the entirety of who we are. He longs for us to experience His love, to be whole and fulfilled in every area of life. We were designed to live loved, to receive and overflow with the abundant love that God offers. Imagine a wellspring deep within us, a reservoir filled with living water. This living water is the Holy Spirit, the fullness of God's presence dwelling within us. It is meant to flow freely, nourishing and refreshing not only ourselves but also those around us. We were created to be vessels of blessing, conduits of God's love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (the fruits of the spirit). Yet, too often, our wells run dry. We try to serve out of an empty cup. The busyness and pressures of life drain us, leaving us parched and thirsty. We find ourselves seeking validation and significance in the wrong places, desperate to be seen and heard by others. But Jesus invites us to come to Him, the true source of living water, the only one who can satisfy our deepest longings. The K.I.S.S. ~ Rivers of living water! In the presence of God, we find true fulfillment and purpose. It is here that the empty places within us are filled, and the overflow begins. As we drink deeply from the well of God's love, we are empowered to live the life He has created us for. We step into the good works that He has prepared in advance for us, becoming vessels of blessing and transformation in the world. Live. Love. Impact! So, how do we access this abundant life? It starts with a simple prayer, a surrender of our hearts and desires to God. Ask Him to fill you up overflowing with His love and living water. Invite Him to guide you, to shape your thoughts and actions, so that you may walk in alignment with His plans and purposes here on earth and in Heaven. As you journey through life, may you continually seek to be filled by God. May you drink deeply from the well of His love, allowing it to replenish and restore you. And may you become a vessel of blessing, overflowing with His presence and impacting the world in which you touch. As you reflect on the words of John 7:37-38, let's remember that God cares about every aspect of your life. He longs to fill you with His love and living water, empowering you to live the life He has designed for you. Embrace this invitation to be seen and heard by God, to be a vessel of His love and grace in the world. "Rivers of living water will flow from his heart." - John 7:38 (NLT) "Be present.

- 9063296 Do You Want to Know the Truth?In marriage, many people prefer to see what they want to see, seeking validation rather than facing the truth. After all, no one wants to be wrong. So in your marriage, do you want to know the truth? It's much easier to ignore the underlying issues and put a bandaid on the situation. But does this truly elevate your marriage, or is it just a temporary fix? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co You have got to step out of this comfort zone and challenge yourself to seek the truth. "If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Marriage is a two-way street, requiring effort and commitment from both partners. It takes two to tango. Acknowledging this responsibility is crucial for creating a strong foundation. However, even if both partners carry this responsibility, it only takes one to initiate change. So today, let's examine where you currently stand and where you want your marriage to go. If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound! The K.I.S.S. ~ Turn off the sound! Turning off the sound is a metaphorical way of emphasizing that actions speak louder than words, and so do your spouse's actions. 1. Pay attention to what isn't being said. It invites you to pay attention to the unspoken cues and signals within your relationship. Often, these subtle signs can reveal more about the true state of your marriage than any spoken words. By observing what isn't being said, you can begin to unravel the underlying truths that may have been overshadowed by daily routines and busyness. 2. Follow the clues where they lead. Following these clues can provide valuable insights into the challenges your marriage faces. You might uncover something you never noticed because you were in tuned with the words, not the actions. As you follow the clues without any pre-judgment, you can see what is really happening, for better or worse. 3. Face the truth in love and grace. It requires a willingness to face the truth head-on rather than avoiding uncomfortable conversations or sweeping problems under the rug. Addressing these issues with love and grace is essential for nurturing your relationship's growth and prosperity. Ultimately, you want to elevate your spouse. But if your actions say otherwise, then you need to face the fact of how you are loving well, or the lack thereof. Ultimately, seeking the truth in your marriage allows you to gauge the emotional temperature of your connection rather than reacting to fleeting moments. This is a way you can see the barometer of the day, not the temperature in the moment. It encourages you to dig deeper and uncover the root causes of any discontent or disconnect. Once you understand these underlying truths, you can develop strategies and work together to overcome any obstacles that may be hindering your marital bliss. Who doesn't want to be happy and feel engaged in their marriage with a partner who loves and cares deeply? "If you want to know the truth, turn off the sound!" ~ Kristianne Wargo Take a moment to eliminate distractions and truly see your marriage for what it is. Embrace the opportunity to communicate honestly, listen attentively, and work together towards a happier, more fulfilling partnership. And when you see gaps in your marriage, ask yourself, "What would a caring and loving wife do?" In the journey towards a thriving marriage, facing the truth is not always easy. It requires courage and vulnerability. But remember, acknowledging and addressing the truth with openness and love can pave the way for a deeper connection and contentment that will lead to a more fulfilling marriage. So, are you ready to turn off the sound and discover the truth in your marriage? "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

- 9073295 Love from AfarIn the journey of parenting, it is natural for parents to want to be involved in every aspect of their child's life. Yet, it's essential for parents to strike a balance between being present and giving the necessary space. Love from afar. As you know, the love and bond between a parent and child are unparalleled. There is nothing like the relationship between mom and son, mom and daughter. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co But if we're not careful, there comes a point where this love can inadvertently become suffocating, hindering the growth and maturation of our children. I don't know about you, but I want my children to be strong and independent. I want them to be able to impact the world they touch with their gifts and talents. My responsibility is to give them the launching pad so they can live a life well-lived. When you think about it, we only have 18-20 years on average that our children need us, give or take. And then, they have their whole life ahead of them. What are some practical ways we as parents can love from afar, fostering healthy growth and maturity in their children at different stages of life? The K.I.S.S. ~ Love from afar! Obviously, the age of the child determines how you lead them well so they can live well. So, I want to break down some of the stages of life. Of course, some of this can be duplicated with some tweaks. Elementary Age: 1. Encourage Independence through Responsibility: For parents of elementary-age children, it is important to instill a sense of responsibility. Allow them to complete age-appropriate tasks independently, such as packing their school bag or making their bed. This not only teaches them essential life skills but also boosts their confidence and gives them a sense of accomplishment. 2. Support Social Interactions: Encourage your child to participate in extracurricular activities and social events. This will provide them with opportunities to interact with their peers, develop social skills, and learn how to navigate different social dynamics. As a parent, support their involvement while giving them the necessary space to explore and make their own choices. Middle School: 1. Foster Open Communication: During the middle school years, children may begin to assert their independence and seek more privacy. It becomes crucial for parents to create a safe and open environment for communication. Initiate conversations about their daily life, school, and hobbies, but also respect their need for personal space. Let them know your door is always open should they need guidance or support. 2. Encourage Self-Reflection: Middle schoolers are at an age where figuring out their identity and values becomes more significant. Encourage them to engage in self-reflection and explore their interests and passions. Provide resources and support, but allow them the freedom to shape their own opinions and make decisions. Guide them, don't dictate to them. High School: 1. Empower Decision-Making: High school is a critical transitional period in a teenager's life. Parents can love from afar by empowering their children to make their own decisions. Encourage them to take ownership of their academic choices, extracurricular activities, and personal goals. This autonomy will inspire self-confidence and foster growth. 2. Support Goal-setting and Planning: Help your high schooler set realistic goals and create a plan to achieve them. Instead of dictating their path, guide them in mapping out steps to reach their aspirations. This will promote self-discipline, time management skills, and a sense of responsibility. College and Grown Adults: 1. Maintain a Supportive Presence: During their college years and beyond, it is important for parents to be a supportive presence. Be available for guidance, lend an empathetic ear, and offer advice when sought. However, acknowledge that they are now adults, capable of making their own decisions and learning from their experiences. 2. Respect Boundaries: As your child ventures into adulthood, it is necessary to respect their boundaries. While you may still be their trusted source of wisdom, avoid imposing your opinions or decisions on them. Allow them the freedom to carve their own path, even if it differs from your expectations. In the words of Kristianne Wargo, "Love from afar is about creating a nurturing environment where your child experiences the freedom to grow, while also knowing they have a loving support system if needed." Remember, loving from afar does not mean relinquishing parental love or guidance. It means finding the right balance of being present and allowing your children the necessary space to become independent individuals. By practicing these techniques in various stages of their lives, you can foster healthy growth and maturity, ultimately shaping them into well-rounded adults. "Be present. Be incredible.

- 9083294 Dare to Ask!In the pursuit of going further and making an impact on the world you touch, the mantra to embrace is simple yet powerful: dare to ask! This phrase holds the key to unlocking your true potential, becoming a game changer, and igniting a transformation that goes beyond imagination. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co When it comes to turning your dreams into reality, superficial thoughts like "Can I afford it?" or "Can I really make this work?" won't suffice. Shallow thinking doesn't fuel the fire needed to make a meaningful impact in your life and the lives of others. You have got to see the bigger picture. True success, the kind that requires stepping out of your comfort zone and diving into unchartered territories, demands effort and perseverance. It's not just about dreaming; it's about putting in the hard work and accepting the challenges that come with it. And believe me, it's worth it. Sure, life would be easier if you could avoid the hard work and take the easy road. But ask yourself, where do most people end up when they settle for mediocrity? "The road less traveled is the path to greatness and who you are becoming; a woman of impact!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The K.I.S.S. ~ Dare to ask! Muhammad Ali once said, "Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing." Let those words sink in. Nothing is impossible if you're willing to ask the tough questions, challenge yourself, and push beyond your limits. Embrace your inner power and dare to ask...am I possible? You were created for more. Your dreams are not just whimsical notions; they are gifts sparked by God's love for you. So, keep it simple, ask the questions you've been ignoring. Is what I want worth fighting for? Why do I want this in the bigger picture? How will it impact me, my family, my community? What or who am I running from? How is fear controlling my actions? What or who is stopping me? What do I need to do to move forward? What's my next step? But don't stop there. Dare to ask God for guidance, for His mighty power at work within you can bring about accomplishments beyond your wildest dreams. Remember the words from Ephesians 3:20, "Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we ask or think." It is time to unleash your potential, embrace the challenges, and dare to ask! With determination and faith, you will find that the impossible becomes possible, and your journey toward greatness begins with one step if you dare to ask. "Be present. Be incredible.

- 9093293 Banish Unwholesome WordsHave you ever stopped to consider the impact of the words you use, even when it comes to healthy living? The way you speak to yourself can have a profound effect on your thoughts and actions. Banish unwholesome words. Too often, we allow negative and unwholesome words to creep into our vocabulary, undermining our dreams and goals, especially with healthy living. It's time to take control, banish those unwholesome words, and empower yourself toward a healthier and more positive mindset. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co But in order to get there, you need to know where you are starting from. What is your W-GPS (word global positioning system)? Are you one who tears yourself down all the time? Do you see your failures as permanent setbacks? How do you normally pull yourself out of a rut? You can't live the healthy life you want if you aren't kind to yourself. So if you're ready to banish unwholesome words, then take your mind to the streets. The K.I.S.S. ~ Take your mind to the streets! Mindfulness is essential in living a healthier lifestyle. 1. Mindful Language: The words you choose to use on a daily basis can either lift you up or drag you down. Make a conscious effort to eliminate negative self-talk and replace it with positive affirmations. Instead of saying "I can't" or "I'm not good enough," try saying "I can" and "I am capable." By speaking positively to ourselves, we reinforce a mindset of belief and possibility. 2. Mindful Actions: After you establish your thoughts with your language, your follow-through is what matters. Yes-- your actions! What you do with your words leads to your actions. So set yourself up for success with actions that feed who the healthy person you want to become. 3. Mindful Goals: Setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals is essential for staying focused and motivated. When our goals are tangible and broken down into smaller milestones, it becomes easier to track our progress and celebrate our achievements along the way. Remember, each step towards your goal, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. "Instead of focusing on the negative words that demean and degrade your dreams and goals, ask yourself, 'What would a healthy me do?'" ~ Kristianne Wargo By shifting your perspective and reevaluating the words you use, you can take control of your thoughts and empower yourself to make healthier choices. Banishing unwholesome words from your vocabulary is a powerful step towards achieving your healthy goals. By practicing mindfulness, you can create a positive and empowering environment that propels you towards success. Remember, the words you speak to yourself matter, so let's choose them wisely.

- 9103292 Run with PerseveranceRun with perseverance; words that call you into action when facing challenges and obstacles. Keep moving forward, pushing yourself to reach new heights. As Zig Ziglar said, "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." Life can often feel like a marathon, with each day presenting its own unique set of hurdles. It is in these moments that we must draw upon our reservoir of perseverance. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Olympic gold medalist, Wilma Rudolph, whose journey from childhood paralysis to becoming the fastest woman in the world serves as an inspiration, said, "The triumph can't be had without the struggle." She understood that true success comes from persisting through the adversity that life throws our way. In our pursuit of excellence, setbacks are inevitable. But it is during these setbacks that we have the opportunity for comebacks to grow and reach new levels of achievement. As Thomas Edison famously remarked, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." It is this unwavering determination to keep going, despite repeated failures, that ultimately leads to breakthroughs and innovations. Where do you need a breakthrough? One often-overlooked aspect of perseverance is the importance of maintaining a positive and optimistic mindset. The renowned motivational speaker and author, Jim Rohn, once said, "Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become." This highlights the fact that our journey towards success is not solely dependent on external factors but largely driven by our internal beliefs and attitudes. What do you believe about who you are becoming? The K.I.S.S. ~ Run with perseverance! Having the right mindset is crucial, but so is taking consistent action toward your goals. American football coach, Vince Lombardi, wisely stated, "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." These words highlight the importance of perseverance in transforming our dreams into reality. It is by staying committed and focused that we can overcome any challenge that comes our way. "Perseverance is the key that unlocks the door to success." ~ Kristianne Wargo These words remind us that perseverance is not just an optional trait to possess, but an essential ingredient for achieving greatness. It is the ability to keep going, even when it feels impossible, that separates those who settle for mediocrity from those who reach extraordinary heights. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo So, the next time you find yourself facing obstacles or have doubt, remember that with perseverance, no goal will be beyond your reach.

- 9113291 The Art of Turning Setbacks Into ComebacksHave you ever experienced a setback that left you feeling defeated and questioning your abilities? It's a common struggle. Let's explore the art of turning setbacks into comebacks as you embrace resilience in the face of adversity. Life throws us curveballs when we least expect it. It could be a career setback, a personal disappointment, or a failed endeavor that leaves us feeling defeated and questioning our abilities. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co However, it's important to remember that setbacks are not permanent. In fact, they can be the catalyst for a great comeback. Because setbacks are not the end of the road, but rather a stepping stone toward a remarkable comeback. Are you ready for a comeback? It's time to embrace resilience. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace resilience! "Many times, a setback can lead to the dismantlement of dreams, leaving only a disgruntled heart. But with every setback, there's an opportunity for a comeback." ~ Kristianne Wargo 1. Embrace the setback as a stepping stone When faced with a setback, it's natural to feel frustrated, disheartened, or even hopeless. However, instead of dwelling on the negative emotions, choose to view this setback as a stepping stone towards future success. Every setback offers an opportunity for growth and learning. Take a moment to reflect on what went wrong and identify valuable lessons that can be applied in the future. As Kristianne Wargo says, "Every setback is a setup for a comeback." Reframe your mindset and recognize that setbacks are an essential part of the journey toward success. 2. Cultivate self-compassion and resilience After experiencing a setback, it's crucial to be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion. Understand that setbacks are a normal part of life and that everyone faces challenges along the way. Give yourself permission to feel disappointed but avoid dwelling on negative thoughts or self-blame. Practice resilience by focusing on your strengths, maintaining a positive mindset, and seeking support from loved ones or mentors. Remember, setbacks do not define your worth or abilities; it's how you bounce back from them that matters. 3. Create a plan and take A.I.M. To turn a setback into a comeback, it's crucial to devise a plan of action. Analyze the setbacks and identify the key areas for improvement or change. Break down your goals into smaller, manageable steps, and set realistic timelines to measure your progress. Stay committed to your plan, even if it involves trying new approaches or stepping out of your comfort zone. As Kristianne Wargo rightly says, "Dream big, take a leap, and follow through with massive action." Taking steps towards your goals with determination and persistence will pave the way for a remarkable comeback. "Setbacks are an inevitable part of life, but they do not define your future; they refine who you are becoming." ~ Kristianne Wargo By embracing resilience, reframing setbacks as opportunities, and taking proactive steps toward your goals, you can transform setbacks into comebacks. As Kristianne Wargo eloquently reminds us, "Every setback is just a setup for an even greater comeback." "Be present. Be incredible.

- 9123290 Ask God5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. (James 1:5 NIV) In our journey through life, we frequently encounter challenging situations and difficult decisions. It is during these times that we can find solace and hope. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co You see this in James 1:5, where it reminds us that God is not only willing but also eager to grant us the wisdom we need. His generosity is boundless, and He provides without any hesitation or judgment. In the midst of the uncertainties we face today, let's not forget that divine guidance is readily available through prayer. The wisdom bestowed upon you by God is not like the knowledge of this world; it runs deeper, is purer, and carries the heavenly insight. By seeking wisdom from our Heavenly Father, you tap into a source that illuminates your path and aligns your decisions with His will. The K.I.S.S. ~ Ask God! Make today a day marked by continuous conversation with God, as we seek His wisdom in every aspect of our lives. Whether it is a seemingly small decision or a choice that will alter the course of our lives, His guidance is available to us in abundance and without condition. Take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life that require God's wisdom today. How can you actively seek His guidance and remain open to the insights He provides? Let the message of James 1:5 empower you and bring hope in the midst of chaos. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him and he shall direct your paths." - Proverbs 3:5-6 "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?
