In my book of life, personal time equals productive time.

Giving myself personal time is a terrific gift.

I have learned that personal time allows me to be more productive.

Having the time to focus on the things I want to accomplish is important.

Personal time allows me to address the tasks I have set for myself.

In order to actively pursue my life purpose, I need to devote time to my goals.

Because I am a giving person, it is sometimes hard for me to see that I deserve the same amount of respect that I show to others.

When it is right, I find ways to put myself first.

Since I give myself the time and space to accomplish my goals, I am a better person.

I feel like I am listening to and honoring my true desires.

Time for myself enables me to be the best I can be.

It is a great practice to devote time to my thoughts and goals.

Personal time allows me to maximize my productivity.

My book of life is designed to help me become a complete person.

I make time for others and myself.

When I give myself personal time, I use that time fully.

Because personal time equals productive time, I am able to achieve my goals and devote more time to my family and friends.

When I am available to others, I am alive with energy.

My time alone has refreshed my life view and filled me with renewed passion. In my book of life, personal time is priceless.

I work smartly. I seize the opportunity to conquer easy tasks first.

I focus on completing the easier parts of my task first because I know that doing so builds momentum and paves the way for success.

Starting with the least challenging parts of any project allows me to learn gradually without jeopardizing the entire task.

By starting with the simple tasks, I am training myself so I will be ready to handle greater challenges down the road.

When I accomplish a task, I grant myself the precedence of success on which I can build upon.

The work may get more challenging, but my subconscious mind will remember the thrill of achievement and I will be motivated to push harder toward my goals.

I also ward off discouragement by being able to show myself that I am capable of accomplishing concrete goals.

When progress gets more complicated, I can refer back to my previous successes for encouragement and remind myself of what I have already achieved.

Also, I am fully aware of the power of momentum.

When I get the ball rolling, it’s far more likely to stay in motion.

Likewise, once I get started on a project, I am already well on my way to success.

How do you set yourself up for success?

What easy tasks could you complete in order to build momentum?

I am actively involved with my hobbies to acquire energy and strength after a hard day.

I am recharged after a long routine day by indulging myself with my fun hobbies.

I enjoy doing many things and I am both creative and talented.

I like taking time out of my week to take pleasure in my creativity through my hobbies.

I become a more centered and happy person simply by taking the time to pursue my hobbies.

They recharge me and expand my creative mind.

At times, life’s continual responsibilities leave me feeling drained and exhausted.

When I take time to pursue my hobbies, I can face these day-to-day responsibilities with a fresh outlook and regain my strength and purpose.

Taking time to enjoy my hobbies regularly provides the same refreshment for my body and mind as recess gave me when I was in grade school.

In school, I would look out the classroom window longing for the beloved recess bell to hurry and arrive.

Then once the time arrived, I would run and play, swing and slide, or play games with friends.

Recess freed me and recharged my inner batteries!

My hobbies are much like recess.

I look forward to them when I am working and I feel recharged when I am engaged in them.

Today I am choosing to take the time to pursue at least one hobby.

I am striving to make this a regular part of my routine so I can recharge my life with my hobbies just like recess recharged me as a child.

What hobbies will you pursue today?

What have you been thinking about starting but haven’t?

There are no failures, just experiences and your reactions to them. – Tom Krause

I am comfortable with the set of challenges a new day brings.

I am thrilled with the set of challenges each day brings.

Challenges are the unexpected plunges in the roller coaster of life.

Even when I don’t know what lies ahead, I am sure that I can make the most of the ride.

Each challenge I complete successfully pushes fear further away from my mind.

I live for challenges.

My life would be a monotonous and predictable Ferris-wheel without the gift of new experiences.

I push myself by looking for opportunities to improve myself and my community.

I love the feeling of achievement.

A great accomplishment is a natural high.

Yet, triumph only comes after a battle is fought and won.

Therefore, challenge must exist if I want to enjoy sweet victory.

When I reflect, I challenge myself every day to be better than before.

I strive to be the best parent, worker and friend that I was created to be.

Each day when I go to bed, I know that the challenges of that day are over.

I reflect upon my performance and make goals for the following day.

In the morning when I wake up, I pray that I have the strength to overcome any new trials that come my way.

My prayer is for the strength to succeed.

I am comfortable because I know that the tools to overcome any trial are within me.

I am comfortable because I know that there is nothing on my plate that I cannot handle.

I feel privileged to have been chosen for each challenge that I face.

How do challenges make you a better person?

What can you learn from your performance in yesterday’s challenges that will help you today?

A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it. – Jean De La Fontaine

I am free from any desire to smoke.

I am free from any desire to smoke because I have decided to have a clean and healthy body.

When I make up my mind, I stick to my decision.

What my body craves is exercise and cleanliness.

My health is something that I work hard for.

I am healthy. I am stronger than any addiction. I am stronger than any urge.

Smoking is detrimental to my health. I refuse to let such a small thing destroy my health.

The thought of placing a cigarette in my mouth repulses me.

Cigarettes cannot tempt me.

While my mind fights the temptation, my body battles the urge.

But I know that I have already beaten this giant.

I refrain from smoking because I love my body.

I deserve better than to purposely introduce a carcinogen into my body.

I also do it for the love of my children.

I keep the air free from contaminants for those around me. I refuse to be a source of pollution.

Advertisements cannot coerce me into doing something I know is bad for me.

I am smarter than to be lured by false images.

At stores, I walk far away from the cigarette counter to protect my mind from the temptation.

If I see someone smoking, I protect my heart by walking in a different direction.

I do not compromise long term health for a momentary pleasure.

I stay far away from people who smoke.

My life is worth more than a quick fix.

I value my relationships more than my own selfish desires.

My heart desires happiness.

For that reason, the cost of giving up smoking is worth it.

I have made the conscious choice to live my life free from any addictions.

How do you avoid temptation?

What are some healthy habits that you enjoy?
