A Year of Affirmative Living: 2020

By Lynn Reynolds

Life can be tough. The ups and downs, the unexpected, the pitfalls, the broken dreams, the judgement and criticism...the list goes on. Wouldn’t it be great to have a daily thought that lifts you, a strong statement to get you going, words to calm you, and reminders that you are not the only one on the planet experiencing the rigors of life?

I have created an inspirational and motivational calendar for 2020. It is called A Year of Affirmative Living. It contains affirmations, declarations, meditations and quotes from people of all walks of life. It is the result of my own struggles and hard won successes. It contains the things I said to myself to feel empowered and bold in the face of difficulty, the thoughts that took me out of despair into hope, and the inspiration I got from other people who have walked in my shoes. I want to give back, to pass it forward so that all who buy my calendar can have the same tools to conquer challenges and achieve their own strength and peace.

Life is for loving and having fun. A Year of Affirmative Living will make it possible!

A wonderful collection of quotations to read and contemplate daily for a refreshing spark of inspiration.
—Carol Cox

“Youth has no age. “ Cant improve on that.
—Curtis Polk

I love that each day I get a reminder of who I already am, and I really appreciate the periodic meditation days that call me to action!
—Horea Owen
