The Only New Year’s Resolution You Need to Make

Leave a Comment

New Year's Resolutions written across the top of a piece of paper with a pen.
This is really the only one you need.

I started out writing a list of New Year's Resolutions to recommend for this post – a collection of a few that I had made myself over the years. As I reviewed the list I started crossing some off, and then I started combining the similar ones.

I soon realized it really all came down to one single, simple resolution. Just one simple goal to strive for this coming year (which is so much easier because it’s hard enough to keep just one resolution!).

This year, this will become our mantra: Refuse to Settle for Anything Less Than You Deserve.

Because if you refuse to settle for anything less that you deserve, that means you get who you are.

And what you’re worth.

And why you’re worth just that much.Continue Reading

The Top 6 Things You Can Do to Survive the Holidays When You’re Single

9 Comments

A beautiful woman is sad because she's spending the holidays alone.
I know what it's like to be alone during the holidays.

I remember how excited I would be if I met someone who showed some real relationship potential in the months or even weeks leading up to the holiday season.

Finally! This Christmas I might actually be a part of a relationship - a couple!

I might actually have someone to show up with me for the office holiday party and family Christmas gathering! Someone to exchange romantic gifts with and to snuggle with in the cold nights; to kiss under the mistletoe.

And the best part was that I’d have someone to spend New Year’s Eve with – it wouldn’t just be another year with me babysitting my nephews so my sister and her husband could celebrate their togetherness (as much as I loved being Auntie Jane, seriously - they could find another babysitter for one night!)

But most years the timing didn’t work out and I was, once again, alone for the holidays.Continue Reading

It Begins With You!

You have it all in you!

If you’re anything like me, you know what it’s like to always be looking for that elusive secret.

Trying to figure out what you’re missing to finally get it right. To finally find and be found by the guy that would be the right one for you.

Or at least the guy who would be the right guy to enjoy a real relationship with.

Because like you probably are, I was so tired of finding myself in dead-end relationships over and over again. It took me a long time, too, to finally attract the right kind of guy into my life. No matter how many books I’d read or advice columns I’d found.

In looking back, I realize that what was eluding me was simpler than anything I was making it out to be.Continue Reading

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher: What Did Demi Really Lose?

3 Comments

I was thinking about an article I read years ago about the break-up of Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher.

As I was reading about how Demi and others before her have ended their relationships with cheating men, I realized something important that I wanted to share with you. Because it’s the perfect example of what we need to remember about these guys we get involved with.

Every single one of them.

And it’s one of the themes that I’m always talking about.

That we really do teach him how to treat us.

If you ever had any doubt about that, just look at Demi Moore’s announcement where she states clearly that she is not going to put up with this kind of betrayal of her and her family. Continue Reading

There are some things we can only learn in the "going through".

I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately from women wondering about what they should be doing to try to find him. The guy who’s Mr. Right for them. And I’m hearing you all very clearly.

What you’re saying behind the words.

You want some reassurance. You want to know it’ll happen to you. You want to know what to do, how do it – basically, you want in on the secret to finding him so that you can finally relax and just know it’s coming.

Your own true love.Continue Reading

Why We Choose Who We Do

A beautiful woman stands, looking downward, in front of a red brick wall.
We have so much worth, we just don't realize it.

Have you ever noticed that you attract and are attracted to the level of your own self-esteem?

Like if you’re feeling great about yourself, full of confidence that you really are all that, you’re going to find yourself attracted to that guy in front of you at the grocery checkout line.

But if you’re feeling down, feeling like you’re not all that, maybe you had a less than glowing job review, or you’re put on a few extra pounds that you’re not happy about, then the opposite holds true as well.

And you won’t even see the guy in front of you let alone think about starting up a conversation with him.Continue Reading
