Today’s Quote

Most people are searching for happiness. They’re looking for it. They’re trying to find it in someone or something outside of themselves. That’s a fundamental mistake. Happiness is something that you are, and it comes from the way you think.
~ Wayne Dyer

Today’s Tip
Be AWARE of your thoughts. What you think about you bring about!

Have a HAPPY week!

Today’s Quote

“It doesn’t matter how long we may have been stuck in a sense of our limitations. If we go into a darkened room and turn on the light, it doesn’t matter if the room has been dark for a day, a week, or ten thousand years – we turn on the light and it is illuminated.

Once we control our capacity for love and happiness, the light has been turned on.” ~ Sharon Salzberg

Have a HAPPY week!
Joanie and Angie

Today’s Quote

A Successful Day
~Michael Angier

A successful day: to learn something new; to laugh at least 10 times; to lift someone up; to make progress on a worthy goal; to practice peace and patience; to do something nice for yourself and another; to appreciate and be grateful for all your blessings.

Today’s Helpful Tips for a Successful Day!

1) Nourish your mind and spirit on a continuous basis by feeding your mind with inspirational books/CDs.

2) Lighten-up and laugh more often.

3) Reach out to someone without being asked or expecting something in return.

4) Give a compliment to someone to whom you may have never complimented before.

5) Take a baby step or a giant step towards one of your goals and celebrate. Every step counts!

6) Practice patience and understanding (count to 10 or pause before reacting).

7) Take a break, even if only for 10 minutes and do something special for yourself.

Make a list of at least 5 things you are grateful for today.

Have a great week!
Joanie and Angie

Today’s Quote

Anyway
~ Mother Teresa

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.

You see in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

Today’s Tip

When in doubt…do the right thing!

Have a great week!
Joanie and Angie

I Know Something Good About You ~ Yolanda Cohen

Wouldn’t this old world be better,
If the folks we met would say,
I know something good about you,
and then treat us just that way!

Wouldn’t it be fine and dandy,
If each hand clasp warm and true,
Carried with it this assurance
I know something good about you!

Wouldn’t things here be more pleasant
If the good that’s in us all,
Were the only thing about us,
That folks bothered to recall!

Wouldn’t life be lots more happy
If we’d praise the good we see!
For there’s such a lot of goodness
In the worst of you and me.

Wouldn’t it be nice to practice
This fine way of thinking too;
You know something good about me,
I know something good about you!

Today’s Tip

This week, be aware if you are focusing on the quirks and weaknesses of others or are you focusing on all the good that’s in us all.

Have a great week!
Joanie and Angie

Today’s Quote

Three Ways to Use Your Present Moment
~Spencer Johnson

1) Be in the Present
When you want to be happy and successful focus on what is right now.Use your purpose to respond to what is now.

2) Learn from the Past
When you want to make the present better than the past look at what happened in the past.
Learn something valuable from it. Do things differently in the present.
3) Plan for the Future
When you want to make the future better than the present see what a wonderful future would look like.
Make plans to help it happen. Put your plan into action in the present.

Have a great week!
Joanie and Angie

Kiss the Earth
~Thich Nhat Hanh

Walk and touch peace every moment.

Each step makes a flower bloom.
Kiss the Earth with your feet.
Bring the Earth your love and happiness.
The Earth will be safe when we feel safe in ourselves.

When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits,
I dreamed of changing the world.

As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change my country.

But, it too, seemed immovable.

As I grew into my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.

And now as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realize: If I had only changed myself first, then by example I would have changed my family.

From their inspiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed the world.

Guest: Jeanne Kelly
Topic: If you’re not looking at your FICO credit score, who is? Improve your credit!

Jeanne worked hard and researched the credit industry and found out that FICO scoring is the cornerstone to financial freedom. She repaired her own credit reports, increased her FICO score and began her new life (self-directed and in financial control). Thus, The Kelly Group was born, and has since gone on to become one of the most legitimate and successful credit consulting companies in the northeast.

An inspirational message from the Happy Wednesday Ladies!

Words To Live By
~Rebecca Barlow Jordan

It’s not how much you accomplish in life that really counts,
but how much you give to other.

It’s not how high you build your dreams that makes a difference,
but how high your faith can climb.

It’s not how many goals you reach,
but how many lives you touch.

It’s not who you know that matters,
but who you are inside.

Believe in the impossible,
hold tight to the incredible,
and live each day to its fullest potential.

You can make a difference in your world.

Today’s Inspirational Quote

 To Be Happy is Your Goal
~ Pauline Oliver

A friendly smile, a kindly wave
A cheery disposition
To cultivate happiness every day
Shall be your new found mission.

Hold only thoughts that serve you well
And banish all the rest.
They have no place inside your head
This will surely prove a test.

Fight bravely on and steel yourself
For your goal is crystal clear.
One day you’ll steadfastly affirm
Only happiness lives here.

Guest: Patty Hansen
Topic:  Author of the new Chicken Soup for the Soul book- “Divorce and Recovery”-
101 Stories about Surviving and Thriving after Divorce

Patty Hansen has co-authored many of the most beloved stories in the
Chicken Soup for the Soul® collection. With her writing partner Irene
Dunlap, she contributed to Chicken Soup for the Kid’s Soul, Chicken Soup
for the Kid’s Soul 2, Chicken Soup for the Preteen Soul, Chicken Soup for the
Preteen Soul 2, Chicken Soup Christmas Treasury for Kids, Chicken Soup for
the Child’s Soul and Chicken Soup for the Girl’s Soul. Hansen also coauthored
Condensed Chicken Soup for the Soul and Out of the Blue: Delight Comes into Our
Lives.

Lisa’s husband, Jimmy, bought their café 15 years ago, when it was known as the Q Restaurant. Two years ago, business was slow, so his wife — a life coach — brought her skills onboard. Thus was born the Q Kindness Café, and business has improved.

Kindness multiplied in such great amounts at the Q Kindness Cafe that St. Paul’s mayor proclaimed the first week of every month Kindness Week. Suddenly, Lisa’s one-woman quest to ramp up random acts of kindness became more than she ever imagined.

Thank you for sharing Lisa!

Imagine kindness everywhere…people giving to give and not to get…

Imagine the life lessons we’d learn
when the gifts we gave keep on giving
in ways beyond our imagination…

Imagine the stimulation in our own lives
and the lives of others as we focus
in all that we have to give…

Imagine the reality we can create by
living in the giving and not the get…

What if each one of us invites another to give…
What if we teach the world to give…in small, thoughtful ways…

What if the giving became the stimulus
that helps us spiral up and out of any mess we’re in…

Instead of going around in a vicious circle, what if we changed one simple thing?

Give a little more. Spread kindness. Offer hope. Give of our self.

Imagine that!
One good deed deserves another and on and on…

Imagine how this could
stimulate our economy;
stimulate the world;
stimulate your world.

Create a stimulus package of your own!
Today!
Now!
And feel good knowing that you make a difference every day.

“A Lesson in Love”
By Michael Jordan Segal, MSW

Audio- “A Lesson in Love”

“I never liked rings. I do not wear a high school ring; I do not wear a college ring; and I did not want to wear a wedding ring. This was not because I did not want people to know that I was married, but because I just did not feel comfortable with a ring on my finger.

After graduating from college I finally was about to “pop the question” to my high school sweetheart, Sharon Gail Weingarton, who continually was at my side when I was almost fatally injured during a robbery.

Sharon was the best — pretty, kind, sweet, and good-hearted. However, what would she say when I proposed and said that I did not want to wear a wedding ring? I practiced what I was going to say to her. I thought long and hard. I finally decided that there was no answer to my dilemma. I would simply tell her, and then wait five minutes listening to her explode.

So that night I proposed, and afterwards I told Sharon that I was not going to wear a ring. I simply said: “I just don’t like rings. I don’t wear a high school ring…” I expected Sharon to become enraged: “WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE NOT GOING TO WEAR A WEDDING RING?”

However, instead, I merely heard silence. After what in my mind seemed like an eternity, Sharon calmly remarked: “Fine. If you don’t want to wear a wedding ring, I won’t change my name. I will not call myself Sharon Segal.”

On our Fifteenth Anniversary, I remembered my first lesson of marriage that was taught to me by my wife Sharon Gail Segal as I looked down upon the ring on my ring finger — COMPROMISE.”

Special Message from Joanie Winberg, The Happy Wednesday Lady:

Would you like to be “highlighted” on the Happy Wednesday Broadcast?

Just e-mail your inspirational or motivational video, audio or poem with tips to jw@joanwinberg.com with the words Happy Wednesday Broadcast in the subject line. Once accepted we will also include a short introduction about you and a link to your website.

My dream is for everyone to become aware of how they can make a difference for just a few minutes every Wednesday by choosing one or more of the following:

- Do an act of kindness.
- Forgive someone- make amends with a relationship gone sour.
- Call someone and tell them how much you care.
- Do something special for yourself or the earth.
- Have FUN and laugh more often.

Until next week, have a Happy Wednesday!
