"You can't dream yourself into a character,
you must hammer and forge yourself one."

-- Henry David Thoreau


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Remove "have to" from your vocabulary. You don't "have to" do anything. Everything is a choice!"


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... NO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If you want to be healthy, choose whole foods. If you want positive relationships, choose to be loving. Start small, and remember that non-action is also a choice that may have long-lasting results."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... CHOICE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Your perception is truly your own reality. You see what you want to see and experience what you want to experience. It all comes back to the transforming power of choice, which can enslave or liberate you."


 
- Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... the Universe

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Boldness starts off in the seemingly 'little' decisions we make everyday and snowballs into a spirit of greatness."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... BOLDNESS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Let your thoughts reflect your spirit, your words reflect you intention, and your actions reflect your character. It's time to take a stand and live by your convictions."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... CONVICTION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"When you say "No," it is a way to proactively manage your energy, set boundaries, and teach people how to treat you. It gives you time to say "Yes" to the things that really matter. People will respect you more when you have outlined the rules of engagement, and you will demonstrate self-love by raising your own standards."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... NO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"When "No" is said to you, it is often a blessing in disguise. As my Mom says, "God is saving you from yourself!" The timing or situation might just not be right. Instead of being disappointed, view it as a chance to clarify your desires, outline the request in more concrete terms, and possibly work on your Self a little more."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... NO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"When you learn how to say "No" to the right things and receive "No" as an invitation to grow, "YES" becomes even sweeter!"


 
- Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... NO!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Practice is generally defined as the act of rehearsing or engaging in an activity again and again, for the purpose of improving or mastering it. Unfortunately, many of us master disaster by practicing the wrong things. We practice distraction by keeping the television on. We practice dis-ease by overeating. We practice heartbreak by not loving ourselves. "


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... PRACTICE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The Power Living® Practice is called such because it's not a one-time deal. You have to practice and live it every day. It's a commitment to life and a consistency of conscious action. It's not an intellectual exercise. It's experiential - which means the principles need to become ingrained in your subconscious and manifest in your behavior - you have to "put them into practice."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... PRACTICE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"As a being of Spirit, begin to view your entire life as a "spiritual practice." In yoga it's called sadhana - a spiritual movement consciously systematized. Think of yourself as an athlete in training. Become aware of your own patterns. Then, have a "practice agenda" - a specific plan of action every day to align your behavior to support your life vision."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... PRACTICE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Consciously define your practice. Once you understand what you're currently doing, consciously decide what you want your practice to be. This relates back to your core values. If you want to have a practice of health, then commit to working out and eating whole foods. If you want to have a practice of compassion, then extend love and forgiveness to your Self and others."


  - Teresa Kay-Aba Kennedy, from The Power of... PRACTICE
