Can you cradle these transitions in 2016?

Posted on January 5, 2016 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

Last week I asked you, “What would you do if you knew you could not fail?” To answer that question you had to empower yourself to believe that impossible is merely a word to describe the degree of difficulty. This week I ask you to consider as you move from the no longer of 2015 and step into the not yet of 2016, how well you are prepared to face the typical transitions that come with the passage of time. Change can come in forcefully like a tidal wave, or creep along incrementally like a glacier. It might have the face of a devastating……

What would you do if you knew you could not fail?

In a number of hours it will be 2016. It’s time for our New Year’s Resolutions. A New Year’s resolution is a tradition, most common in the West but found around the world, in which a person makes a promise on New Year’s Eve to make certain changes or self-improvements in the year ahead. It is believed that the Babylonians were the first to make New Year’s resolutions around 4,000 years ago, and people all over the world have been breaking them ever since! The ancient Babylonians made promises to their gods at the start of each year, which began……

Sometimes cliches are necessary.

“Let’s see what happens”, she replied. How many times had she heard and said those words? But this time was different. She was different. She had been divorced ten years. She had been alone ten years. It had taken her that long to learn to love herself again; to see herself as worthy. Now she was ready to dip her toe, perhaps her whole foot into the water. She was tired of being “singular”. Initially she had tried online dating. Perhaps because then she still saw herself as damaged, she attracted unsatisfying companions with her words. Oh, but now she……

Read this if nobody texted you “good morning”.

Posted on December 8, 2015 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

Good morning, exceptional, incredible you. Remember when I asked you how you greet the morning? Today I was writing my son his good morning text of encouragement and love. It makes me feel connected and full of joy. Actually, this morning habit is one of my “pay it forward” activity. Blogger Heidi Priebe agrees with me and wrote some time ago that good morning texts are more than a half-hearted means of communication. They are a sign that we are thought of. Cared for. Adored, by someone who may not be immediately present. They are a reminder – one we……

What if you had to be the one?

At least a generation ago, singer Dusty Springfield sang a love song containing the following lyrics: “Wishin’ and hopin’ and thinkin’ and prayin’ Plannin’ and dreamin’ each night of his charms That won’t get you into his arms So if you’re lookin’ to find love you can share All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and love him And show him that you care” Now consider this. “What if you peered into a fortune ball right now — this very second, today — and saw with indisputable clarity that you were never going to meet the love of your life?” I’m aware this is……

Have you ever been happily living large; sitting tal, Then BAM! You had a devastating fall? How low did you go? What did life look like from down there? You may have thought it would take more than all the kings’ horses and all the kings’ men to put you back together again. The good news is you have everything you need to recover. You came here with the promise, protection, provision and power of grace. It is in your Christian DNA whether you are worthy of it or not. It may take a lifetime to discover, however in the rearview……

Can dreams come true?

Have you ever been in a near-miss accident? Do you know that feeling of panic that lingers in your chest? Maybe it radiates down your arms into your fingertips leaving a tingling sensation? That is your body’s response to something it did not anticipate. Now imagine that every day of your life, you experience that sensation. For many children with special needs, their environment is a threatening place due to the demands that are placed on an atypically-developing nervous system. Now imagine these children in their wheelchairs unable to access a playground or with disabilities that do not let them hang……

Need to flip your script?

So it’s 2:41 a.m. and I am wandering through some old journals to see where I have been and perhaps affirming where I am going when I bumped into this random collection of thoughts. I don’t know if the exact words are mine or borrowed from someone I thought of as genius at the time, except for Michelangelo’s of course, because he was a genius. They feel encouraging. They feel empowering and they feel like they need to be shared: “Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it” &……

Are you following your dreams?

Ten proven follow-your-dream startup steps. When I was a little girl, I loved the Cinderella Fairy Tale song that said, “A dream is a wish your heart makes when you’re fast asleep. In dreams you will have no heartaches, whatever you wish for you keep.” Eventually I outgrew fairy tales, but not dreams. I believe dreams are essential to help us find and live our intended purpose-filled lives. Our dreams allow us to imagine new possibilities; they can take us anywhere, allow us to do anything in a land of unlimited opportunities. However following dreams require intentional activity and planning. And……
