1598 Answer the Call
Everyday you have choices. When you aim higher than you feel comfortable, victory is yours to claim. You are called to greatness. So how will you answer the call? Today, we celebrate and honor our heroes; the service members who fought for our freedoms and protect us daily. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact Too often we go through our days living in our assumptions; the things that are accepted as true or as certain to happen, without proof. It's the assumption mindset. Living with this mindset keeps us tethered to the norm, restricting personal growth and development. The assumption mindset buries our greatness before it can be discovered and cultivated. I have to believe that our service members didn't live by this assumption mindset. In both war and peace, they chose victory by walking in their greatness. They did what needed to be done to answer the call. Soldiers are called to greatness. There is no time for mediocrity. For those who fight for your freedoms, honor them by answering your call. The K.I.S.S. ~ Answer the call! Stop minimizing your greatness! Stop settling for what comes easy. The victory is won in battle, not in training. "Be not afraid of greatness; some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them." —William Shakespeare Carry your victory in your daily intentions. When you face opposition, know that brings you one step closer to greatness. Expect the unexpected. When you give yourself permission to live outside the assumption mindset, you see light in the darkness. Consistency ignites greatness. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness. Your greatness begins when you stop fearing what you don't know. Be brave. Be intentional. Answer the call. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me. You will be able to discuss your specific situation and gain tools and strategies to move you forward. Live. Love. IMPACT! "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!"

1597 Everything is Possible
Are you hiding in the boundaries set by the impossible? You may be hiding, but everything is possible. Wouldn't it be nice if you could wake up every morning do what you were great at, lead with intention, and walk in confidence? Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact You can! How? Because nothing is impossible which makes that everything is possible! So why does the hope fade on a daily basis? Why can't you find what you are looking for? Most of us are placing our hope and our contentment in the stuff, not the whom. "We become distracted by what is in our hand and not what is in our heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo Everything is possible for one who believes. – Mark 9:23 The K.I.S.S. ~ Everything is possible! Where is your hope? What are you doing to intentional rise up to what God sees, not what you know? You are not alone. You do not have to walk the road of chaos just because. God's got you!

1596 The Power of One Small Act
Sometimes you search for the big events to make a difference. But what would happen if you look for the small things? It's the power of one small act. You don't always have to "go big or go home". You do not need to play games with the big things when the little things matter! Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact Your marriage, your relationship to your spouse is critical to your family's success. Unfortunately, efforts are stale nowadays when it comes to building up marriages. We do things out of convenience. "You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." ~ Matthew 5:14-16 And that light of the world starts in your household. The power of one small act comes from the question... The K.I.S.S. ~ How can I serve you? The power of one small act takes initiative. The power of one small act takes intentionality. The power of one small act takes investment. Initiative - You have to look for the jumping off points; the starting point. Don't wait to be asked. Just do or make suggestions. Intentionality - Be alert. Be aware of what you can do to serve. Seek out. Don't wait for the obvious; it may be too late. Look for ways to serve. Investment - Time. Money. It can be giving up of what you want or desire. How can I serve you? What can I do for you today? The power of one small act will change your marriage. The power of one small act will change your heart.

1595 The Magic in Your Everyday
Celebrations are so much fun! And it's all because of the magic in your everyday. Why would one need magic in their everyday? Because life and parenting is hard! Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact There are SO many challenges. But like anything, a challenge awakens the celebration. Today is it; the last day of school! And celebrating we are. When the school year started, the kiddos were not excited to go back to school. Think about it. If you had a choice of playing all day or going to school, which would you choose? Probably the one with the least amount of work. Well this year has been monumental. We had two graduations; one college and one 8th grade. And yesterday was Gman's 8th grade graduation. As I watched all the children (now teenagers who are freshmen) receive their honors and certificates, I sat in awe of every family represented. You see, that room was filled with moms and dads. Moms and dads who had courage. "Celebrations come by courage!" ~ Kristianne Wargo If you desire for your child to excel and impact the world they touch, you have to flex your courage muscles as a parent. The K.I.S.S. ~ Flex your courage muscles! It's hard waking up and doing the same thing over and over again. And parenting is just that. However, we go from no-no-no---no, to longer no-no explanations. But all are the same. You are guiding and leading your little blessings on their journey. You are walking beside them, learning with them, crying with them, celebrating with them. All of which comes from the magic in your everyday, flexing your courage muscles. Go the extra mile! You have to be willing to do what no one else will. Reach higher than your ceiling. Meaning that you want your child's floor to be your ceiling. When you're tired, you're gonna reach higher. A.I.M. for their best! You want the focus of your efforts to be reflected in your child. And yes, that means, you gotta keep going. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! You see, when you flex your courage muscles, your child will flex his. Courage is contagious! So let the courage spread like wildfire! You have what it takes. So rise up! Let the magic in your everyday ignite the passion of a difference-maker. Flex your courage muscles, so your children can flex theirs.

1594 My Strength Is My Story with Ron Kitchens, Uniquely You
There is no shortage of gurus, processes, and quick-fix formulas. However, through life's trials and triumphs, Ron Kitchens shares leadership lessons to learn by being uniquely you! Ron Kitchens is a husband of 27 years, a father to their beautiful daughter, with the newest addition Finley River of Hoover's Mill, an adorable puppy. Ron is the senior partner and CEO of Southwest Michigan First, an economic consulting firm which has grown compounded revenue at 20 percent annually during his fourteen years as CEO. The organization was recognized by Best and Brightest Companies to Work For and Outside Magazine, the Wall Street Journal as the BEST place to work in America in 2018. In addition, Ron leads Consultant Connect, is the publisher of 269 Magazine, a board member of IMPACT Athletic, the past chair of the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts, and a Trustee of Western Michigan University. Ron founded the leadership conference Catalyst University and co-founded NEXT, an invitation only leadership symposium of global economic development leaders. He is a speaker, podcaster, and has authored three books with his newest release Uniquely You: Transform Your Organization by Becoming the Leader Only You Can Be. "Be your authentic self. The world pays millions for authenticity, and pays pennies for bad copies." ~ Ron Kitchens Connect with Ron Kitchens BOOK: Uniquely You Enjoy the multitude of topics discussed including leadership, mandarin oranges, Rachel Hollis, Nehemiah, and the Green Witch plus so much more. Team leadership Rolex watch John Maxwell Jon Acuff Instagram Media Growing Up Poverty The Banana Box Can of Mandarin Oranges Developing Leaders The color orange What's important? Destiny Identity Dyslexia Superpower Seed of Success Rachel Hollis Football The Nehemiah Journey That's not our plan! Nehemiah 6:3 Communications Millennials The Cul-de-sac Olivia Pope of Scandal Raw manifestation of Your Calling Validation Wicked on Broadway The Green Witch I am enough! Impact & Influence Connect with Ron Kitchens BOOK: Uniquely You "You can change your plan, but you need to not let other people change it for you!" ~ Ron Kitchens #MyStrengthIsMyStory #CreateYourNow #RonKitchens Quotes and statements within the interview: "The vast majority of them are under thirty." "Be you! The world has enough copies." "People don't value knock-offs. They don't value fakes." "And in the Ozark Mountains, in the 1970s, tropical fruit, whether it was can or fresh, was something rare and to be saved." "This can of mandarin oranges became a symbol for me that somebody loved me; that somebody cared enough in the world." "What it really has become is a symbol of my responsibility to take the role of those three men and give back to people, who I don't necessarily know, who I don't even necessarily know why they're in their situation, but I'm not called to know why. I'm just called to love them and called to support them on a journey." "And I want you in your career to find something that will remind you in a tangible way of what's important to you." "It's easy for the noise to drag us away from our destiny." "Being dyslexic, I wasn't diagnosed until I couldn't graduate from college." "But what I was embarrassed to tell people about, I now know is my superpower!" "Everyone has a unique seed of success in them." "And that's what I want for everybody is just to be happy and don't spend your life trying to be a bad fake of somebody else. Embrace who you are!" "It took me eight years of working part-time and going to college." "Cause I grew up knowing, the people who had what I wanted all had one thing in common. Their family had jobs." "This ladder is to remind me no matter how flattering, you have to stay up on the ladder." "I believe that the millennial generation has the ability to be the greatest generation that's ever been on the face of the earth." "So the one thing, if you want to be a great leader today, is the the ability to unambiguously communicate to this incredible generation to mentor and lift them up." "So as leaders, we've got to first determine: Am I stuck in a cul-de-sac or am I just slowed down on the side resting a little bit?" "What do you want?" "I don't really know why, except I've discovered that I'm the green witch." "And I think for a lot of us out there, it doesn't matter if you came from poverty or prosperity, we all have that voice in our heads that says 'You're not enough!'" What has your story gifted you? Empathy "It's really easy for a lot of people to forget their own journey and lose their sense of empathy." "And if there's a sense I would never want to lose, it's that. Because it helps me understand." "My past has created this sense that 'I love everybody,' and I want them to have as many unbelievable opportunities that I've had."

1593 All in the Family
Health and wellness is more than the food you eat and your exercise regimen. It's all in the family! Your family history has a strong influence on your health. You cannot change your genes, but knowing your make-up is crucial to understanding your body. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact Throughout my life, I have had struggles when it comes to food. My mom told me that she would walk with me for hours because I would cry non-stop. There was no consoling me. The doctor thought I had colic. They tried various formulas for me. But nothing worked. As I grew up, I never having normal bowels. Now the crazy thing, my mom had problems too. And so did my grandmother, great-grandmother; plus my uncles. The problems ran deep in the family. You may not have the same thing as your family members. However, knowing your family history helps you understand your genetic predisposition. This is your possible susceptibility. Now understand that just because it runs in the family doesn't mean you will have it too. Yet, it gives you the opportunity to help facilitate a life from a preventative measure. So what can you do when it comes to your family history? The K.I.S.S. ~ Be a powerhouse! Don't back down when it comes to your health. My mom went to the doctors for some concerns. She had a colonoscopy and endoscopy. From those results, we found out that she has some things that genetic. This is information that is important to anyone in her family. You want to ask the tough questions so you can be a powerhouse in your own health and wellness journey. Ask the tough questions (medical problems/diagnosis, age of disease onset, age of death, etc.). Look at what serves your health goals based on your genetic predisposition. Prepare a lifetime wellness plan (share the information with your doctor, lead with intention: eat to fuel your body not the disease, exercise on purpose, etc.). "Be a powerhouse. Train for life.

1592 Challenge Equals Change
When uncertainty clouds your day, it's hard to stay on task and move forward. But if your goal is to make an impact, you must understand that challenge equals change. Nothing worth having comes easy. So at some point in your journey, the decision must be determined that the challenge is worth the pain, the hurt, the uncertainty of the current situation. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact You cannot change yesterday. But you can IMPACT tomorrow by what you do today! So what do you want that is different from what you have? If it's your health, then are you willing to do the work, endure the sore muscles to gain strength and lose weight? If it's your finances, then are you willing to stop spending unnecessarily and get another job to begin paying off the debt you incurred? If it's your marriage, then are you willing to stop blaming and go to counseling and look in the mirror first? If it's your business, then are you willing to stop complaining about what you don't have and start doing the work to get what you do want? The K.I.S.S. ~ Challenge equals change! Nothing worth having comes easy. The answer to all of those questions require a "YES" to move you toward what you want. But with that "YES", it requires you to endure the challenge; the uncertainty, the pain, the unknown. Just because a challenge presents itself, doesn't mean the challenge has to be negative. Look at your challenges today as an opportunity to get you closer to what you want. Challenges are hard. But it's those challenges that propel you forward. Change doesn't come easy. But it's in the hard that creates your now. "Challenge equals change!" #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

1591 Flourish in the Shadow of Failure
Failure comes by doing. But what happens when failure is all you know, how do you flourish in the shadow of failure? How do you get back up time and time again after not making it to the finish line? Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact The tone of the day is illuminated by failure. If failure is all you know, that is all you see. Are you beating yourself up for what you can't do or haven't done? Failure is one of the toughest things to let go of. The failure mindset takes hold and soon you find yourself lowering your standards, believing that you're a disappointment. When you have setbacks and failures, how do you react? Your reaction is a mindset you claim as yours. You own it, because it works. It becomes a protection mechanism. "Failure is the finish line of what you didn't accomplish." But you want something more, something different. You desire to thrive. You desire to flourish. "THRIVE is the happiness revelation inspiring victory and excellence within you." You desire to flourish. "13) Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead. 14) I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 3:13-14 You cannot change yesterday. But you can IMPACT tomorrow by what you do today! So how do you flourish in the shadow of failure? The K.I.S.S. ~ Press On! Failure is a refining process. God wants to STRETCH you, MOLD you, and REFINE you. "Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand." ~ Isaiah 64:8 Declare today that failure does not have a hold on you. Press on to what is before you. Flourish in the refining process, the discovery of what's to come and press on. Forgive - Give yourself permission to leave your failures behind. Forgive yourself. Let go of the past. And forgive others too. Reset - Learn from your failures. They are your stepping stones. Take A.I.M. - Strain toward your goal. "Train for life. Love your journey!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me. You will be able to discuss your specific situation and gain tools and strategies to move you forward. Live. Love. IMPACT! "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!"

1590 Preparation for the Storm
If you knew a life's storm was moving in, how would you ready yourself in preparation for the storm? Storms can be very debilitating. Just when you think you have it all together, life is going well, a storm is on the horizon. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact Unfortunately, when things are going well, we become a little lax and complacent. Preparations are put on the back burner. There's no reason to till the soil if you aren't going to plant a garden. But tilling the soil is preparation for the garden. So why would you not prepare for the storm? We had a storm moving in late last night. If you looked in the sky, earlier in the day, there was no sign a storm was coming. But as the afternoon moved into early evening, you could see the clouds on the far horizon. In fact, the weather service was even giving warnings, but still it was hard to believe. After getting home from our Saturday service at church, my daughter alerted me to the storm. "Mom, if you have anything that needs to be brought in, you need to do it now. The storm appears that it will be here within 30 minutes." I made preparation even though it didn't look like the storm was coming. Two hours later, the storm hit. We even lost power with two power surges. The K.I.S.S. ~Preparation for the storm! Are you preparing for the storm even before the storm shows up on the radar? Are you praying to God, bringing Him your concerns and sorrows, joys and celebrations? God meets your needs in preparation for the storm when you pray! But unfortunately, we leave Him out until the last minute. We hustle ourselves together playing catchup, rushing through what would have been days, maybe even months of prayer. Don't wait until it's too late. Pray in preparation for the storm. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 4:6-7 Talk to God on a regular basis. Prayer opens up our eyes to see the world from God's perspective. Prayer opens up our heart to the hope that comes only from Him. Let God's joy immerse you daily, so when the storm does hit, you are prepared. May the love of today serve you tomorrow! "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

1589 What Do You Have To Offer?
When you're in a relationship, it's easy to get hung up on the other person. But what do you have to offer? Why do we always think about the faults of the other one or the strengths? Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact You matter in the relationship. And the only one you control within a committed relationship is YOU!! So why do you leave yourself out of the equation? Instead of focusing on your spouse and where he/she falls short, look in the mirror. Instead of focusing on his/her attributes, look in the mirror. What do you have to offer? If you would take the time and invest in changing who you can control, imagine what a difference that can make in your marriage. The complaints that come from married couples, regardless of how long they've been married, is all the stuff they wish they could change. But what is forgotten is the reflection! What do you have to offer? If you want to create a strong foundation in your marriage, If you want to impact your family, If you want to love deeper, If you want to live an intentional life, then know the reflection you see. The K.I.S.S. ~ Know the reflection you see! Most of us spend time on "fixing" everyone else. Most of the time, we are mending and defending, and even bending, in the name of others. But how much time and energy is expended to know the reflection you see....to know YOU!!! Not enough! So today that changes. A.S.K. so you can know the reflection you see. Ask yourself...What do I have to offer? Seek out...What do you wish to change? Knock on the door of commitment...How will you commit to your change? Your commitment and loyalty to your marriage is honorable. But to grow stronger and love deeper in your marriage, it's time to know the reflection you see. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.
