Positive Story Wednesday – You get what you give!
Once, there was a farmer who regularly sold butter to a baker. One day, the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting the exact amount that he asked for. He found out that he wasn’t, so he took the farmer to court. The judge asked the farmer if he uses […]
Talk About It Tuesday – Your younger self.
Just recently I’ve had an amazing opportunity offered to me and I’m incredibly grateful I was able to have an open mind to hear it. Yet, how many times has this happened and we aren’t able to have an open mind. Maybe it was because of fear about how it will turn out or worry […]
Motivational Monday – Enjoy the moment!
I watched this cute new Netflix show called “Huge in Paris”. It’s about a comedian who’s a massive celebrity in France and decided to visit the US to get to know his son better. In fact, he’s called the Jerry Seinfeld of France. Yet, coming to the USA he’s a nobody. Anyway, there was a […]
Happy Fri-Yay – Take time to play!
When I was a kid, I always loved to play. Especially with my Barbie dolls. My room was overrun with them. Yet, as I grew up it became inevitable that I stopped playing as much. Life got busy and things just became more important than playing. I feel many of you can relate to this. […]
Think About It Thursday – A small effort can go a long way.
The other day I received an unexpected card from a friend I hadn’t heard from in almost a year. Recently she had read my book and she felt compelled to share what it meant to her and what our friendship means. There are no words to describe what this incredible gesture meant to me. As […]
Positive Story Wednesday – A powerful story about letting go of stress.
Once upon a time, a psychology professor walked around on a stage while teaching stress management principles to an auditorium filled with students. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the typical “glass half empty or glass half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, the professor asked, […]
Talk About It Tuesday – Spring cleaning can boost your confidence!
I absolutely love this time of the year! When the weather starts to warm up and all the leaves and spring flowers start to bud. However, what I love even more about spring, is the spring cleanup. I know, you probably think I’m crazy! Who would love cleaning…right? But hear me out! You see, I […]
Motivational Monday – Be your authentic self!
I love the colour pink! It’s been my favourite colour for as long as I can remember. My favourite flower is the pink tulip, my cellphone signature says “Sent from my Pretty in Pink iPhone”, and most accessories, like my brush, headphones, and iPad cover are all pink. It’s a colour that feels pretty, feminine, […]

Dealing With Curve Balls In Life – Written by Melissa
The thing about life is that sometimes it throws us a curve ball and we don’t always get what we want. Learning to deal with the curve balls in life can be challenging and a bit tricky. However, if we don’t deal with them then we become stuck, remain in the same place as before […]
