- Note to Self:
The Fly on the WallDear Self,
That annoying, pesky fly has been buzzing around you all night long, driving you crazy! Just when you think he’s gone, he magically appears and there he goes again, buzzing and swirling around your head.
Self, get out of your comfy chair and grab the fly swatter. It’s time to kill that pesky fly!
Self, don’t let those pesky thoughts buzz around in your head any longer. You know, those thoughts of how so and so did you wrong. In fact, you’re having a pointed conversation with them right now in your head, shouting out the error of their ways and boomeranging your own slew of hurtful words back at them. After all, they deserve it! (By the way, they can’t hear you :))
Self, get out the fly swatter and squash those thoughts by forgiving them. Don’t let those thoughts of bitterness steal another moment of your life!
You do realize that you can’t change that other person, right?! The only person you can change is you! So, yes, they did you wrong. Yes, it was hurtful, but now it’s time to say “No” to that pesky fly because you choose (that’s the key word here… choose!) to forgive them, without expecting anything from them in return.
That’s soooooo hard to do, but do it anyways because the pesky fly isn’t flying around them, it’s flying around you!
Self, choose to forgive and you’ll find life is so much better without that pesky fly buzzing around your head.

Take the challenge: Get out the fly swatter and start squashing.

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

Story or Poem
I Lost My Horse
My 2-year-old son ran frantically into the room, with sad puppy-eyes and panic spouting from his voice, exclaiming, “Mom, I lost my horse!” (That would be his plastic toy horse of course).
An immediate picture came to mind. I pictured the Lone Ranger quickly exiting the rickety old saloon, taking one giant leap forward, as he fully intended to land on his trusted horse Silver to save the day!

God-Moment
What does faith look like?
What does faith look like? It looks like trust… Putting your trust in God for every aspect of your life.
Once you experience faith, no doubt about it, your faith will be tested! Allow that testing to strengthen and anchor your faith; to sharpen it and transform it, so it continues to grow.
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.
Take my hand, grab your phone, and smile. Let’s take a selfie!
