Star’s Success Tips
STAR Steps – Strategies To Achieve Results:
When you hit a wall, when you get discouraged, when life brings unexpected challenges here are 4 steps to help you achieve results.
Sit still. With all that you have going on in your life, it becomes hard to ignore the distractions and focus on yourself but this is an important step. Carve out some time, find a quite place and just sit still. Try to calm your breathing and your thoughts.
Take inventory. What is it that you are good at, what brings you joy? We often have skills and talents that we take for granted. It is also easier to pretend that we are just mediocre people with nothing special to give. The truth of the matter is that we all have something special to give. Take an inventory and you will be surprised at how much you have to offer.
Accept the challenge. Embracing your inner light and taking action to bring that light out into the open is a challenge. It takes time, effort and commitment. Accept the challenge and to take action to make it happen.
Reinvent yourself. Remember when we were kids and we dreamed about what our lives would be like, what we would be doing and who we would be? Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, it is not too late to become the person you always wanted to be.
Use these STAR Steps whenever you find yourself up against a wall or moving in that direction and you will achieve remarkable results.

Kerri’s Success Tips
I do know that all of us have a force of power inside that is tremendously great, yet many people are not living the life that was promised to them to fulfill. This could be a direct result from allowing your soul to become toxic thus clouding your ability to fully recognize your birth gifts. For others, it could be a lack of balance and not taking the time seek and develop your gifts. Remember, there is always danger in comparing your gifts with others and under estimating the value of your personal gifts. Both of which result in never attaining the fullness of the power within. Begin by applying three simple truths that will revolutionize the way you think, you act, and what you will do next in your life. Read more at www.coachkerri.com

Michele’s Success Tips
Start using Leading Questions to keeps you moving down the positive path.
You have this amazing power to ask better questions. Every thought begins with a question. You have a problem-solving-mind. It will endeavor to solve any problem you throw its way. You can center your questions around health, or whatever you most desire: love, kindness, abundance, joy, strength, or relationship.
You can ask these questions in the shower. Ask in rounds of three for each question. Start each round of questions with:
How can I …?
What will I do that…?
Wouldn’t it be great if…?
Sprinkling Positive Speech helps your subconscious focus on realizing better outcomes.
You can begin going in a new direction. You are the one who can make all the difference. Rediscover the power of your focus. You have a choice: you can choose to hurt or heal your body by the way you speak to yourself and how you see yourself. Trust that somewhere within you, you are already whole, already healed. Know this. Stake your claim; you have a right to health. The first step is to stop being so hard on yourself. You have done the best you could with what you had. Now you have options and you know it.
Flip Your Script and stop your negative story and reprogram yourself for success.
You move your energy when you decide not to perceive pain in a hard fact, but instead see an opportunity to grow. Pain in life is inevitable. We all lose loved ones. Ultimately, we will all die. Suffering in life is a choice you make when you describe the pain of now or the uncertainty of your future to yourself repeatedly. Suffering and pain therefore continue to be manifest in your life. When you tell yourself the story of the pain you feel, the description you create is more than just the facts and here’s where you create the gory details. No more! Intend good health and peace for yourself: You are able to take action and face fears.

A Silent Preacher Speaks Out (Judy Brinkley)
January 11, 2012 by Jory · 3 Comments
Domestic Violence is a broad term that encompasses many facets of abuse (physical, emotional, psychological, and sexual); however, its ultimate goal is the same — to control through fear. Domestic Violence is a secret sin in the Body of Christ. As long as Domestic Violence and its traumatic effects remain covered in shame and darkness, there can be no help. The first and most courageous step is bringing this violence out in the open. Let’s talk about it and break the silence. “The Lord of Hosts, the Lord Most Vehement, has heard the cry of His daughters, the Women of Worth. He is beckoning the Church, the army of God, to take up this cause and defeat this present day Goliath.”
About Judy Brinkley
To the glory of God, Judy is Out Of The Box of Domestic Violence. As a minister, counselor, and author, she is dedicated to seeing other women set free. Likewise, Judy’s experience as a university dance teacher still infiltrates the ministry today. Her expertise and passion for the arts is evident within First Love Ministries & Dreamcenter. Judy is available to speak and minister at conferences, seminars, the local church, women’s groups and organizations. Her Spirit-led journey “Out Of The Box of Domestic Violence” has equipped her with an overcomer’s testimony.

Judy’s Success Tip
1. Give Jesus Christ permission to become your EVERYTHING.

for your life.
