They’re going through;

Champions focus on what

They are going to.

Champions in any field of endeavor

Always rise to the occasion.

Champions see what they can become

Rather than live in the past.

Champions view life as a self-fulfilling

Prophecy.

Major life changes can bring everything

Into focus. The little things, simple acts of

Love, are more meaningful than ever. It’s

Time to protect those everyday moments

With life insurance.

You are what you repeatedly do.

Excellence is not an event…

It is a habit.

- Aristotle


The world cares very little

About what a man or woman

Knows;

It is what the man or woman

Is able to do that counts.

- Booker T. Washington

Dream that really counts is

Yours.

The negative comments of

Others merely reflect their

Limitations… not yours.

- Cynthia Kersey

Those who bring sunshine

Into action, to bring these things

Into fruition.

Your loved ones. We can help get

030521 Make Small Commitments Get Big Changes…

Taking Care of You.

Drink plenty of water.

Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper.

Eat more fruits and vegetables and eat less that is manufactured

in processing plants.

Avoid eating food that is handed to you through a window.

Live the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy.

Play more games.

Read more books than you did last year.

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.

Sleep for 7 hours.

Take a 10-30 minute walk daily.

And while you walk, smile.

Your Outlook

Don't compare your life to others.

You have no idea what their journey is all about.

Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control.

Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

Don't overdo. Keep your limits.

Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.

Dream more while you are awake.

Envy is a waste of time.

You already have all you need.

Forget issues of the past.

Don't remind others of their past mistakes.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.

No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.

Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear

And fade away but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

Learn a new word every day.

Smile and laugh more.

You don't have to win every argument.

Your Relationships

Call your family often.

Each day give something good to others.

Forgive everyone for everything.

Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.

Try to make at least three people smile each day.

What other people think of you is none of your business.

Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. 

Your friends and family will. Stay in touch.

Your Life

The worst promise you can break is one made to yourself.

Do the right thing!

Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.

However good or bad a situation is it will change.

The best is yet to come.

When you awake alive in the morning, thank God for it.

Your Innermost Self is always happy.Follow it.

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

Keep these rules handy and review them from time to time.

Follow them and small, almost imperceptible, changes will

Accumulate into something big.

Your life will change.

Excerpted from Rules of the Hunt.

With which we play them.

Those simple acts of love can

Go a long way.

For your loved ones is to get

Life insurance to protect them

Financially.

Of reasons why they cannot do

022621 FYI... Is a life insurance benefit taxable to a beneficiary?

As a general rule, death proceeds are excluded

from the beneficiary’s gross income. 

The proceeds are received income tax free by the

beneficiary regardless of whether the beneficiary

is an individual, a corporation, a trustee, 

or the insured’s estate. 

In order for the death proceeds to be fully excluded

from the beneficiary’s gross income, the life insurance

contract must meet the provisions of applicable state

law and the definition of life insurance found in the

Internal Revenue Code.
