I dared you to D*R*E*A*M and asked you to join on the journey. Today we conclude our discussion of the word DREAM with the letter M – MAKE IT SO. As a Star Trek fan, I am intrigued at the crew discussions. The Captain asks for suggestions, all give their input, a plan is made.…
As we continue looking at the word DREAM we come to the letter A. A is for ASK. ASK for help. Sure, they may say no, and they have that right. Just as you do. You have the right to say no as well. Sometimes by asking we may find the other person doesn’t even…
Your focus determines your destination. What are you focusing on? In episode 3 of “Tea Time with TerryAnn” we look at the letter E in the word DREAM. Expect. Expect to Succeed.

I did it again. She called with a last minute cancellation asking me to please take over the project. Through gritted teeth with a forced smile I said it would be no problem. Afterward I slammed a few cabinet doors, spoke some words I wouldn’t want my daughter to hear, and then started to readjust…
‘Oh that my steps may be steady, keeping the course you have set’ – Psalm 119:5 msg I have tossed my daily TO DO list and now work on an I WILL list. Simply thinking about ‘what I should do’ verses ‘what I will do’ is a perspective shift that has helped me to move…
