Do whatever it takes.
Start now.
Capitalize on your strengths.
Delegate your weaknesses.

These are simply what I believe in. These
are flexible, not set in stone. Our beliefs
grow and change as we add history, education,
and experience to our lives.
(Write your own, I'd love to see it!)

Go ahead and find your favorite 5, write them
on index cards to keep with you or write them
on a mirror at home (dry erase marker)
so you'll read them for a daily boost!

HUGE HUGS,
Melissa

PS. It is likely that I could have simply
kept growing this list, but to honor short
attention spans and limited time, I stuck
with what I felt was most important
in this moment.
