Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Victory comes in many forms; winning a competition, accomplishing a personal goal, or overcoming a challenge. However you celebrate your failures or successes, be gracious in victory. Victory brings about feelings of joy and jubilee. Now, you may not think failures feel the same way. But how you choose to respond to those failures can be the difference maker in your life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Gracious in victory. With any form of success (or even failure), the outcome pushes you in one direction or another. The temptation to believe that you did it all by yourself can then send you in a spiral with your pride and ego. It's easy to become caught up in your own accomplishments and to let pride and ego take over. However, in order to really experience the gift of your success, your achievement, and your hard work, it is important to remain humble and to show gratitude not just to yourself and the process, but respecting those who have helped you along the way. Gracious in victory. "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." ~ Proverbs 16:18 By avoiding pride and remaining gracious, you not only honor yourself and those who have supported you, but you also set a positive example for others to follow. You become a role model. The K.I.S.S. ~ Gracious in victory! Now consider the influence of your success on others. It's important to remember that everyone has their own battles to fight and their own victories to achieve. When you approach your own success with a gracious attitude, you can build bridges and foster positive relationships, rather than creating division and animosity. There doesn't need to be comparison from either side. So how would you feel if you looked at your accomplishments and failures with the same tone... gracious in victory? What would that do for your confidence? How would that build you up and others? Your influence is a greatness if you choose to accept the challenge God has given each of us. Gracious in victory. Love, kindness, humility, and gratitude should be the hallmarks of your victories, no matter how big or small they may be. And even when you feel like you lost, you still show up as if you won. Because you did!! PRAYER: Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV) 23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. "Be present. Be incredible.

It's so easy in our competitive and image-focused world to think, "I'm not good enough", "smart enough", or "successful enough." Utilize your talents and gifts not to compare, but to share. You have nothing to prove. Why does it seem that all of our lives, we are trying to prove something? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Hey mom, I can crawl. Look at me, I took two steps. Wait, don't look away; I'm chasing you. Oh, the words you say. You made it on the team! I got the school I wanted. My first job is in the books. I'm engaged to the love of my life. Got my dream job! We always are trying to play up what we are doing for attention, for love, for recognition; to be noticed, seen, and heard. But do you really need to work that hard? Do you really need to strive more than thrive? You have nothing to prove. So go be YOU!!! The K.I.S.S. ~ Go be YOU!!! "Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken." ~ Oscar Wilde When you take a moment to think about it, trying to be who you aren't is always more exhausting and taxing on the mind, body, and spirit. You weren't created to be someone you're not. Go be you!! SMILE more than you scroll. If you are looking always side-to-side or up and down, you'll never be able to do what you can do. You can't let your worry of someone else's success or journey upset your path to your every day. But when you smile, you break the pattern of comparison, and you open yourself up to seeing what's right in front of you. SHOW UP more than you stumble. You are going to make mistakes. But so long as you have the drive to show up more than you stumble, you will always be on top. SIMPLIFY more than you sensationalize. When you focus on what you do best first, you don't have to be concerned about being noticed. You do what you do best, so you can live, love, and impact. This way, you're not trying to prove anything. You get to go be you!!! So what are you doing in your every day now? Are you trying to get noticed? Or are you focused on your talents and gifts? You get to be amazing when you stand and be you! There's no better reason than this season to make a change for today and every day. You have nothing to prove. PRAYER: May you delight in your own talents and gifts. Focus your heart on what you have to offer and leave everyone else to their own vices. You are loved, seen, and heard. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. ~ Revelation 3:20 Do you know when God wants to get your attention? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co You can get so tied up in your own activities and responsibilities that you miss God's presence. And not just the comfort of knowing He's got you. But truly hearing from Him. The K.I.S.S. ~ I stand at the door and knock! Are you a willing participant in God's plan for your life? Or are you playing hardball? What if you were to open the door? What if you were to "Be still" so you could "know" what God wants for you? With all the distractions and displaced feelings that become more self-centered rather than heavenly-focused, it's easy to want that control. It's easy to tell yourself, you've got the answers. PRAYER: May you take moments in your day to "Be still and know.", letting your heart soften toward hearing God's nudges for your life. Unwrap the gift of God's presence daily so you can do "immeasurably more." "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Marriage is a two-way street and requires both partners to be committed to building a strong foundation. But when life happens, and you're no longer in the honeymoon phase, what fuels your marriage? What keeps the fire burning? And no, it's not just sex. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co And that's on both sides. But honestly, there is more to a marriage than sex. What fuels your marriage? What keeps the flame burning? Think about an oil candle. Without fuel (the oil), the wick cannot burn. The flame goes out. Same with marriage. If you don't give your marriage the right fuel, the flame goes out. The K.I.S.S. ~ Add the right fuel to your marriage every day! 1. COMMUNICATION - One of the most important things that fuels a marriage is communication. When you and your spouse can communicate effectively, you're able to understand each other's needs and wants, then you can work together to find solutions to problems that arise. And remember that part of communicating is listening. 2. TRUST - Another important factor is trust. Trust is the foundation of any strong relationship, and it is crucial in a marriage. When you trust your spouse, you believe in their integrity and reliability, and you know that they have your best interests at heart. A marriage cannot survive without trust. 3. RESPECT - A third important factor is respect. Respect is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship, and it's essential in marriage. When you treat your spouse with kindness, consideration, and compassion, and value their opinions and feelings, you are exhibiting respect. And with respect, you're able to build a strong foundation of mutual understanding and support (compromise). PRAYER: May your thoughts, words, and actions lead with kindness and love toward your spouse. Even in the midst of challenges, remember the reason you fell in love. May your calendar reflect the daily commitment to spending time with your spouse. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

What do you do when your children drive you crazy? Don't fall into the traps of misplaced hurt and blame. Spill over with grace. I'm sure you've experienced a few frustrations that have led you down the road of yelling and screaming, proclaiming how you're right, and your children are wrong. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Guilty as charged. As parents, it's easy to get caught up in the idea of right and wrong, especially when it comes to our children. We want them to make good choices, behave well, and do well in school. We want them to find their career, a great spouse, and make a beautiful life for themselves. But it's important to remember that they are human and will make mistakes. When they do, rather than getting angry or punishing them, some circumstances call for a response of grace and understanding. The K.I.S.S. ~ Spill over with grace! Now, if it's a blood or flood moment, then you may have to be a little more direct in your discipline and response to their actions. However, I want to challenge you to think outside the box. What if you were cool, calm, and collected? A Poem from My Grandma, Jan Bass (By K.J. Ramsey, The Book of Common Courage) I searched and search And could not find A single place for rest Until the hand of Jesus Drew me close unto His breast. He said, My little child, I see in you no blame. You are of My choosing. You're the very reason I came. I said, My Father God, What with me would you then do? And He said, Child, child of mine, I want only to love you. If there was only you And I knew of no other, Still I would come, That I could be your brother. You must begin with your own life-giving lives. It's who you are, not what you say and do, that counts. Your true being brims over into true words and deeds. — Luke 6:34 MSG You want to train up your child to know that regardless of what they do, you will still love them. Now, you also need to make it clear that it doesn't mean you approve of everything they do. But mom, dad... You are called to love unconditionally. To extend the grace that was extended to you by God. There are moments in life when you need to just sit with your child. You need to let them feel their emotions and wrestle with the feelings, knowing that you are always going to love them. But if your response to their mishaps and failures is all about what they did wrong, how will they ever feel they did right in your eyes? Spill over with grace. My daughter shared with me a story back in the day when she was in middle school. I don't remember the details specifically, but she knew that I would not be happy with what happened. So instead of hiding whatever it was, she told me about it. And then her life was changed. I remained very calm and approached her with a hug, holding her in the moment. "Mom -- I thought you were going to be so mad. You scared me to death." Her thinking was that I would lay into her and get really mad. And when I didn't, she was more scared. Sometimes the sting of the event is worse than your disappointment in them. Spill over with grace. PRAYER: May your words carry wisdom to the hearts of your children, while you're steadfast in your love for them. Hold tight to what you know is true. Serve with kindness, love with compassion, and stand firm in peace. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

You determine how your day will go from your commitments to yourself and to others. Stop pleasing and start living. Prioritize what matters most in your life. One of the greatest letdowns in life is not living out our dreams. We strive for everyone else's success (kids, big business, community, etc.), but leave ourselves stranded on the sidelines. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co We think about our dreams and revisit them once in a while, almost as if they have been sentenced to life in prison without parole. Now, that may sound a little harsh. But let's stop dancing around the subject. Life throws you curve balls every day. And it's in those moments where you make a split-second decision on what to do next. What if you were to change your decisions to focus more on what you want out of life? That doesn't mean you are leaving those you love behind. In fact, you will be able to give them more as you move forward with clarity. The K.I.S.S. ~ Prioritize what matters most in your life! Give an honest review of how you are living currently. Don't get all down on yourself, but do allow yourself to feel your emotions. Then, click your heels three times and declare what you want for this season of your life. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1 So what are those activities for you, your spouse, and your family? What does a beautiful, productive day look like when you unshackle your dreams and give your mind permission to fly? "When you remove the restrictions, you gain resolutions." ~ Kristianne Wargo God made you on purpose for a purpose. Look at your day with passion in your step and hope for brighter moments. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your energy expand as you ponder God-size dreams. Let the unknown spark the adventurous soul within, making way for dreaming again. As your emotions move up and down and all around, cling to the talents and gifts God gave you. You are a beautiful soul. Create your now and go impact the world you touch! "Be present. Be incredible.

Consistency is a key aspect of well-being; the foundation on which healthy habits are built and sustained. No matter your focus, consistency is essential for achieving and maintaining good health and happiness. So what are you really good at? Eating? Sleeping? Dodging your new year's resolutions? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co You can have the healthy lifestyle you desire. But you know it doesn't come easy. So stop trying to fool yourself. Instead, sure up your foundation and build consistency every day. The K.I.S.S. ~ Build consistency every day! One of the most important ways to build consistency is creating good habits that work for you, not against you. You want the good habits to stick and the bad habits to be less appealing. Notice I didn't say removed completely. It's hard to teach old dogs new tricks. Habits are hard to break, but they can be stacked. Habit stack a daily routine. Most of us live by habits. Think about it. We barely use 10% of our brains. Scary, but true. So take the time to habit stack. Create what works toward your goals. Do it over a period of time, no rushing, creating a sense of routine that is controlled. And who doesn't want control? Maintenance seals the habit daily. How you choose to show up is how you will continue to care for yourself. Think about how you care for your car. If you never change your car's oil, do you think it will last much beyond 3 years? Probably not. Or it might be with a full engine overhaul. You want to always lean toward caring for and letting go of pushing all the time. Repetition develops consistency. This is the pattern driver. The more often you do something, the more consistent it becomes. If you practice positive thinking and self-talk, do you think that will build your negative talk muscle? NO! "What you practice, you progress in. So live out who you want to be." ~ Kristianne Wargo Consistency is a crucial aspect of well-being; the foundation on which healthy habits are built and sustained. When you commit to becoming consistent, you can improve your overall well-being and lead a happier, healthier life. PRAYER: May your mirror reflect your actions that change your heart and health for the better. Don't rush your goals, but stay consistent with your actions. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness! "Train for life. Love your journey!" #WellnessWednesday #CreateYourNow #HealthAndWellness TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

There are always moments in life when you feel overwhelmed. Don't get stuck in regrets, worries, failures, and fears. Fix your eyes forward. Because dwelling on what doesn't serve you, everything in the past, can lead you to have an attitude of status quo. Why try anymore? It's easier to hang out where you are. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co However, you have to be realistic, too. If you want to change where you are in life, you have to change your environment. You have to change your thoughts. You have to change who you hang out with. You have to change what you daily. You can't lose weight if you keep eating what you've been eating. You can't have a better relationship with your spouse if you keep doing what you've been doing. You can't get a better job if you don't improve your skills or even look for one. To out from the shade of failure and disbelief, you gotta fix your eyes forward. The K.I.S.S. ~ Fix your eyes forward! 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 3:13-14 You cannot focus on your past failures and think you can move forward. It's counterintuitive. So instead of striving for what you didn't do, fix your eyes forward on the goal God has set for you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. 26 Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil. ~ Proverbs 4:25-27 Stay focused on your goals at hand. Don't get distracted by things that will lead you away from your passion and purpose. When you let go of regrets, worries, failures, and fears, it makes a way for you to hone in on the goals and aspirations God has set for you. And when you do this, you gain the strength and perspective you need to take the next steps. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo PRAYER: May your eyes see the vision God has in store for you. Stay grounded in your next step. Don't waiver when the going gets tough. Lean in and look up. Fix your eyes forward. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

Winning is not always about achieving success. Often, it's about understanding how failure is a stepping stone on the path to success. When you feel like you're losing, consider it pure joy. When you aren't seeing the results you desire or feel like you deserve, it can be easy to feel defeated and lose sight of the bigger picture. But intuitively, you know that every failure is an opportunity to learn and grow. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Now, that doesn't make it easier to just pick up where you fell off. You're human. There might be a little wallowing or pity party happening. But what if you could look at your failure from a joyful perspective? What if you could see the bigger picture? What if you could present yourself in a manner that allows you to be in the moment, but not be cemented in the moment? "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." ~ James 1:2-4 The K.I.S.S. ~ Persevere to finish the work! RENEW your mind. One of the most powerful ways to win when all you do is lose is to renew your mind. You've gotta shift your perspective and look at failure in a different light. Instead of viewing it as a setback, see it as a comeback, an opportunity to learn and improve. Those are teachable moments. When you're open to new ideas and ways of thinking, you'll be able to see opportunities that you may have missed before or glanced over. "Even a closed door can be an open door." ~ Kristianne Wargo You "don't want to conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. (Romans 12:2)" READY to be UNSETTLED. Comfort is for the weak at heart. Instead, look forward to the unknown and embrace the adventure of pioneering your day in a way that is well-lived. When you're comfortable, you're not pushing yourself to be your best. But when you're challenged and uncomfortable, you're forced to step out of your comfort zone and push yourself to be better. "By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going." ~ Hebrews 11:8 CREATE your now. You want to have a thorough strategy and plan in place. Identifying your goals and create a plan to achieve them. And don't forget to exhaust your "I'm not good enough" silent plea and ready your mind to yell, "the best is yet to come." When you have a clear plan and a positive attitude, you'll be able to see that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he will direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 Don't fall short because of your failures. Let your failures create your now in leading you to do what God created you to do. Consider it pure joy! PRAYER: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." ~ Philippians 4:13 "Be present. Be incredible.

Regardless of where you are today, the situation that confines you, or a circumstance that celebrates you, life is never easy. Proclaim today, "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. (Psalm 23:1)" The 23rd Psalm is one that has always been a place of refuge from anything happening in my life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Your refuge might be found in the following examples. Maybe you find yourself as a people-pleaser. You could be living a life of worldly desires, not heavenly-driven. You may react from a scarcity mindset. You are trapped in a corner of loneliness. You're not good enough. You cling more to the flesh and not what God wants for you. You might be running just to run. You could be making decisions based on previous failures. Maybe you fear more than you trust. Your vision is limited compared to God's. And that's when He steps in. The K.I.S.S. ~ Taste the goodness of God! Psalm 23 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. David knew the responsibilities and the importance of being a shepherd. And that's how he saw God for himself. God was his shepherd; a provider, a protector, a potter. A shepherd cares for his sheep no matter what; good, bad, or ugly. He creates nothing out of something. He feeds and waters the sheep. He fulfills their needs. That is how David saw God; his Shepherd. And even in the darkest times, he knew in his heart that God walked with him. Never did he have to fear. Never did he have to be alone. Draw near to God. He is watching out for you always, regardless of where you are today. PRAYER: May your days be blessed by the power and presence of our Lord. May your flames of greatness grow hotter as the temptations of fears and failures are reduced to ashes. "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. (Psalm 23:1)" "Be present. Be incredible.
