Receive your daily boost of B-12.

These are in no particular order. Use them all – everyday.

“Live everyday as if it were your last – cuz one day, you’ll be right!”

The fifth of our B-12 boosts is Be Powerful.

Being powerful means the ability to exert positive influence. This kind of power comes from having the confidence, knowing who you are, and stepping into that place of authority at all times. It does not mean lording it over anyone, or exerting brute force or coercing anyone. That kind of power comes from fear.

Being powerful in this sense means speaking your truth in love, exercising authority because you want to increase life, not decrease it. You can command attention and don’t have to demand it. And yes, there is a great difference. STOP, TAKE A BREATH, and ASK:

“Am I a positive influence in my immediate sphere?”

“Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't.” ~ Margaret Thatcher

Just for today, be powerful!

Today as I reflect on my birthday, I pause to remember two icons.

No matter what we may have thought of either of them, they had influence and made an impact. I grew up loving both of them. They impacted my life in ways I could never have imagined.

When we leave the room, the party, the job, this world… will people be glad you were there?

I am reminded of Michael’s song, Man in the Mirror ~ "If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change."

We don’t know when we will leave this world; but we can make sure someone was glad we came.

I had lovely birthday sentiments; I was called inspiring, a light, mentor, uplifting, positive, sister…

I don’t take those sentiments lightly; I truly take them to heart knowing that to be is my choice. Yes, I have challenges and struggles. Yes, I choose the road not taken, because in the end, it has made all the difference.

Rest now, my sister Farrah, my brother Michael. Your work here is done.

Coach Carolyn
