New Schedule

One year ago, Succeed and Soar launched. Since then, illustrated inspirations haveย posted each week. Thank you for reading.

For the next year, I’ll post eight times, at the equinoxes, solstices and their mid points. The next ELetter-blog will be in four weeks, at Samhain [pronounced sow-wain], an important point in the cycle of seasons, which canย start a more contemplative-reflective period as nights lengthen.

NOTE

When this message was first presented, I planned to slow then end the posts. Three years later,

As of January, 2024

Three years later, seems topics that align with Succeed and Soar‘s mission have kept me posting once a week.ย  New themes have arisen like “Thrive! Nourishing News” a year ago.ย  Seeking and sharing “Select Short Videos” has been a great adventure. The twelve “Paths to Joy” series has been so enriching, it’s been updated and presented twice.

This year, two new themes debut:

  • “Authors Speak” where writers share what inspires them and
  • “Your Heroic Heart,” to encourage our best.

Even the tags for the original post have changed!

Here are wisdoms that kept me going,

When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached,
don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.ย 

— Confucius

The question should be, is it worth trying to do; not can it be done?
–Allard Lowenstein

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.
— Source Unknown

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
–Alfred A. Montapert

If at first you don’t succeed, get a bigger hammer.ย ย 
— Alan Lewis

Please enjoy.
