I hope that this week finds you doing well and enjoying some well deserved moments of joy, peace, and abundance.<\/p>\n<p>I have been spending a lot of time looking at the night sky, in part because my trusty canine sidekick has wanted more midnight strolls than usual. We have been dealing with some high temps during the day where we are, and I think she enjoys the coolness that the darkness of evening brings. Like many people, I love to look up at the moon and remind myself that there is so much more to her than what we here on earth will ever be able to see.<\/p>\n<p>This week\u2019s Daily Focus stems from that illustrious orb, who in her quiet beauty exerts its magical pull on each of us and this planet that we call home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>August 24 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cAim for the moon.

We often hold ourselves back from truly reaching our potential out of fear of falling short of our goals, believing that, by not perfectly hitting the mark, we have failed. Instead of being worried about not making our goal the first time, perhaps we could find ourselves moving ahead faster if we realize that making it even half-way puts us closer than we were before to our ultimate goals.

The moon, on the other hand, is so subtle in its influence that nature goes along without realizing that it has been changed, seamlessly and organically. We too can change people just by being steadfast in our path and beliefs. Our quiet strength can help others to desire that in their own lives, and before we know it we have brought about change that is self-sustaining because it stemmed from a desire to change, rather than our forcing it.
