Every now and then, don’t you just wish you had an extra day of the week? Maybe between Tuesday and Wednesday—a day no one knows about where you can tackle reorganizing the basement, get some genealogy done without interruption, or visit a distant relative. But Tuesday is over and here comes Wednesday, normal as usual, with laundry, work responsibilities, and shoveling the driveway all over again.
Well, I just looked at the calendar and realized we do have an extra day this year—it’s Leap Year!

Think It and Become It
by Cindy Beck
If you want to cultivate a quality in yourself, visualize yourself talking and acting that way. For instance, if you want to be more patient, you might envision circumstances that would normally cause you to lose patience, and in your mind see yourself as being patient. If applied consistently, visualization works because you see yourself as if you’ve already accomplished the trait that you want to acquire—which causes you to become that type of person.
Have you used visualization or another technique to improve yourself or accomplish a goal? Leave a comment.

Working toward any goal takes more than just figuring out what you want. Joy shares her keys to success for accomplishing any task:

Being CONSISTENT means continue taking those “little steps” over and over until they become habits. Then use those good habits to accomplish GREAT things.

How do you be both diligent and consistent as you work toward a goal? How do you keep your family on the plan? We’d love to hear your ideas.

When upon life’s billows you are tempest-tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings; name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.
