- Note to Self:
Don’t let the Bleak Freak in!Dear Self,
The Bleak Freak is knocking at your door, don’t answer it!!! The Bleak Freak is freakishly focused on how bleak things look. How hopeless the situation is. How impossible those obstacles are in front of you.
Self, it’s all a lie! Don’t let the Bleak Freak make himself at home and strategically place a dreary painting, void of all hope, over the fireplace mantel of your life.
I know it looks hopeless but it’s not! Self, look at what’s in your hand! There’s a paintbrush. And, next to you on that end table is an amazing assortment of bright and beautiful paints.
But, Self, it’s up to you to reach out and dab that paint on your paintbrush and start painting over the gray, dismal bleakness.
And, if you can’t do it on your own, then look up! The Master Painter Jesus is holding in His hand a colorful array of paints that includes forgiveness, grace, freedom from past mistakes, beauty for ashes, and joy for sadness. He is offering some beautiful colors to replace the dismal colors in your life.
Self, don’t give in to the Bleak Freak. Start adding colorful strokes to that painting above the mantel, and you’ll find life doesn’t have to be hopeless and bleak.
Get out your paintbrush!

I CAN & I WILL Brain Camp is an action plan journal that empowers you to not just start a goal, but to cross the finish line! You may begin your journey with good intentions, but are those intentions strong enough to keep you going? When a moment of weakness or an overwhelming feeling that it’s too difficult whispers in your ear, it becomes easy to slip back into bad habits, abandon the projects or ideas you’re working toward, or give up on the dream you’ve been chasing.
Along with inspirational thoughts and ideas, this book includes a 100-Day Action Plan Journal to help you push through those tough times when you just want to quit.
Psst! Do you want to know a secret? You’re worth the effort! So don’t give up on yourself today. I’m not talking about tomorrow, or the next day, or the day after that. I’m focusing on today and only today as you graciously give yourself the gift of not giving up. Why do I say this? Because success is ultimately found in one place: TODAY! What you do today is the determining factor in achieving your goal. Good thing today is your da

Twas the Night Before Christmas…
Twas the night before Christmas…
When I awoke with a fright
With THINGS on my mind,
THINGS of all kinds!
THINGS for my children,
THINGS that excite,
THINGS on my charge card,
THINGS I thought were
the essence of life.

God-Moment
God’s not the problem.
God isn’t your problem! He’s not the one holding the carrot of temptation over you to see if you will jump.
Realize that God is not the instigator of the sin that’s stalking you. He’s not tempting you with it, because there is no sin in God.
Hi, I'm Kally
Hey there! I’m here to be a ray of sunshine and to put a pep in your step so you can live life fully today!
Whether you need a quicker-picker-upper to energize your day (who doesn’t need that?), or if you’re facing giants and life feels heavy and bleak, you’ve come to the right place!
I’ve been through the good, the bad, and the ugly, (as I’m sure you have as well!) and I’ve learned some life nuggets along the way. My one minute Life Notes will fuel your tank and inspire you to move forward and to find hope in the moment. Plus, if you have more time, check out the writings and God-Moments.
I know your time is valuable, so my Life Notes only take a minute of your time; one minute that motivates you to take a step forward – to help you believe in yourself, your purpose and your value. You matter! The piece you contribute to this life matters.
Keep in mind, you don’t need to conquer the world today, you just need to take one single step.
Life isn’t about taking a giant leap forward to get to that big moment, but rather those small steps and the day-by-day journey that slowly but surely helps you reach a bigger goal. Small but steady steps are the key.
Whatever you’re facing, or whatever your life ambitions are, I believe in you. I believe in the good in you. I believe you are here for a purpose, and the world is a better place because you’re here. Or, at least it can be. I believe you can get through the yuck and muck and come out shining on the other side.
