8/6 Something to think about...

[Billie]

Did is a word of achievement,
Won't is a word of retreat,
Might is a word of bereavement,
Can't is a word of defeat,
Ought is a word of duty,
Try is a word of each hour,
Will is a word of beauty,
Can is a word of power.

What is your favorite action word? What powerful word can you use today for your mantra that will help you in this program or in life in general? What little word?

I have two, one if fight, meaning fight hard for what I need to do in my life and the other is believe, believe, believe!

Find your word for today and Have a great Sunday!
