I have learned, as a rule of thumb, never to ask whether you can do something. Say, instead, that you are doing it. Then fasten your seat belt. The most remarkable things follow.
Julia Cameron

Living with integrity means: Not settling for less than what you know you deserve in your relationships. Asking for what you want and need from others. Speaking your truth, even though it might create conflict or tension. Behaving in ways that are in harmony with your personal values. Making choices based on what you believe, and not what others believe.
Barbara De Angelis

If you don’t ask, you don’t get.
Mahatma Gandhi

When you reach an obstacle, turn it into an opportunity. You have the choice. You can overcome and be a winner, or you can allow it to overcome you and be a loser. The choice is yours and yours alone. Refuse to throw in the towel. Go that extra mile that failures refuse to travel. It is far better to be exhausted from success than to be rested from failure.
Mary Kay Ash

The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.
Harriet Tubman

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the only one who’ll decide where you’ll go.
Dr. Seuss

Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.
John Quincy Adams

In the magical universe there are no coincidences and there are no accidents. Nothing happens unless someone wills it to happen.
William S. Burroughs

Life is playfulness…We need to play so that we can rediscover the magic all around us.

Discipline is the refining fire by which talent becomes ability.
Roy L. Smith

Don’t listen to those who say, “It’s not done that way.” Maybe it’s not, but maybe you will. Don’t listen to those who say, “You’re taking too big a chance.” Michelangelo would have painted the Sistine floor, and it would surely be rubbed out by today. Most importantly, don’t listen when the little voice of fear inside of you rears its ugly head and says, “They’re all smarter than you out there. They’re more talented, they’re taller, blonder, prettier, luckier and have connections” I firmly believe that if you follow a path that interests you, not to the exclusion of love, sensitivity, and cooperation with others, but with the strength of conviction that you can move others by your own efforts, and do not make success or failure the criteria by which you live, the chances are you’ll be a person worthy of your own respect.
Neil Simon

“Before the world gets to know something that’s neat, you get to know it. And you’re your own spectator of what’s coming out of you. And it’s really kind of . .. delirious and happy. It made you want to giggle while you were singing, it was so much fun doing these things.”
Art Garfunkel

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
–John Muir

Because our gifts carry us out into the world and make us participants in life, the uncovering of them is one of the most important tasks confronting any one of us.
–Elizabeth O’Connor

Goodness is a process of becoming, not of being. What we do over and over again is what we become in the end.
–Joan Chittister

For the truth is that I already know as much about my fate as I need to know. The day will come when I will die. So the only matter of consequence before me is what I will do with my allotted time. I can remain on shore, paralyzed with fear, or I can raise my sails and dip and soar in the breeze.
–Richard Bode (First You Have to Row a Little Boat)

Thoughts from Jim;

We have had a lot of calls for the Denali & Elizabeth floor plan the last couple of weeks and today we are unveiling the Denali floor plan. Every time we unveil a plan it is an affirmation for us that we are committed to giving the customer want they ask for, following where we are lead, and staying the course.

John Ortberg wrote a book titled, “if you want to walk on water, you’ve got to get out of the boat” and the principle has stayed with me. Peter got of the boat, and for a brief moment walked on the water. Many consider him a failure – even if he did walked on the water! The real failures were the ones that stayed in the boat cowering in fear, afraid to even dare to become a water walker. To me, a water walker is one that will take a risk, go for the brass ring, stand up for what is right, be willing to grow/learn, and to overcome our fears – whatever they are.

Are you a water walker?

Commitment unlocks the doors of imagination, allows vision, and gives us the “right stuff” to turn our dreams into reality.
–James Womack

It takes a deep commitment to change and an even deeper commitment to grow.
–Ralph Ellison

Don’t measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.
–John Wooden

When you have vision it affects your attitude. Your attitude is optimistic rather than pessimistic.
–Charles R. Swindoll

“As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler; solitude will not be solitude, poverty will not be poverty, nor weakness weakness.”
– Henry David Thoreau

“Live simply that others might simply live.”
– Elizabeth Seaton

“The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.”
– Hans Hofmann

“You know you have reached perfection of design not when you have nothing more to add, but when you have nothing more to take away.”
– Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

“I put a piece of paper under my pillow, and when I could not sleep I wrote in the dark.”
Henry David Thoreau

Thoughts from Jim;

Do you like to write prose, poetry, novels, fiction?  Many of the great writers had safe places where they could pursue their passion of writing. They had their writers huts, poetry sheds, or some area of their home that they could sequester themselves in and just allow the creative juices to flow. Many of the tiny houses and cabins, such as the new Zen model or the Wildflower would be perfect for this in your garden or backyard.

“Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for fewer problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom.”
- Earl Shoaf

“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life’s about creating yourself.”
- George Bernard Shaw

“Formal education will make you a living. Self education will make you a fortune.”
- Jim Rohn

“If we don’t try, we will not know.”
Ayya Khema

“The essence of our experience is change. Change is incessant. Moment by moment life flows by and it is never the same. Perpetual alternation is the essence of the perceptual universe. A thought springs up in  your head and half a second later, it is gone. In comes another one, and that is gone too. A sound strikes your ears, and then silence. Open your eyes and the world pours in, blink and it is gone, too. People come into your life and they leave again. Friends go,  relatives die. Your fortunes go up, and they go down. Sometimes you win and just as often you lose. it is incessant change, change, change.”
Bhante Henepola Gunaratana

“Zen in its essence is the art of seeing into the nature of one’s being, and it points the way from bondage to freedom.”
D. T. Suzuki
