Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Who doesn't want to be loved? But are you willing to put in the work to love deeper, so you can experience endless love? Marriage is a two-way street that requires both partners to join together in love to become better as a couple. However, endless love isn't just about feeling loved, but about actively participating in growing and nurturing the relationship. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com How does your marriage work for you now? Are you just going through the motions and keeping it so-so? Growing deeper in love requires action. You can't keep doing what you're doing if you want to be stretched and reach a deeper and more committed level of love. The length of time you've been married and the experiences you've had along the way certainly affect your marriage.  Regardless, if you desire endless love, you must commit. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make your commitment! For couples seeking to deepen their love this summer, here are three essential ways to love deeper and make a commitment to endless love: 1. Participate in Acts of Love: Love is not a passive emotion but an active choice that requires continuous effort and commitment. Love is a verb. So, get off the sidelines. Show your love through actions such as planning surprise date nights, writing heartfelt letters, or simply being present and attentive to your partner's needs. By actively participating in acts of love, you demonstrate your dedication to nurturing and strengthening your bond. 2. Cultivate Compassion and Understanding: True love thrives in an environment of compassion and understanding. Take the time to listen to your partner, empathize with their feelings, and communicate openly and honestly. Practice compassion by acknowledging and validating each other's emotions, even in challenging situations. By fostering a space of understanding and acceptance, you create the foundation for deep and lasting love. 3. Serve with a Generous Heart: Service is a powerful expression of love that goes beyond words and gestures. Make a conscious effort to serve your partner selflessly, whether it's through acts of kindness, support in their endeavors, or simply being a source of encouragement and strength. By serving with a generous heart, you not only enrich your partner's life but also strengthen the bond of love that connects you both. Endless love is not a destination but a journey of growth, self-discovery, and unwavering commitment. By actively participating, cultivating compassion, and serving with a generous heart, couples can deepen their love and make a lasting commitment to each other this summer and beyond. Love is indeed an action verb – let your actions speak volumes of the endless love you have for your sweetheart. "Be present. Be incredible.

Raising kids is not for the faint of heart. It takes more than a village to get through what is the most awesome responsibility anyone will ever experience. Yet, with all the competition of wanting what's best for your child, it leaves little room for failure. What happened to the value of failures? And this is not about parenting failures, even though there are many of those. Failure is a natural prerequisite for achieving success. No one achieves success on the first try always. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com But when you're a parent, secretly, that's all you want for your kids. What happened to paying your dues to get to the next level? Failure comes with a cost. But what cost does it gain? Success! As parents, we must let our kids make their own decisions as they grow up and expand their knowledge. Of course, parents need to give pertinent information and perspective on what they need to make better decisions. However, if parents do everything to prevent their child from failing, then what does their child gain? Parenting is a journey filled with challenges, and one of the toughest hurdles to overcome is the aversion to seeing our children fail. Failure, however, is a natural stepping stone to success, a crucial part of the learning process that cannot be overlooked. Step your kids to success, fail more! The K.I.S.S. ~ Step your kids to success, fail more! That's what must happen; you've gotta fail more as a kid. And parents need to let that happen. In a world that often prioritizes perfection and achievement, it's easy for parents to strive for their children to succeed on the first try. But what about the lessons that failures teach us? What about the resilience, determination, and growth that come from facing setbacks? To truly nurture your children's potential and help them develop critical thinking skills, observation abilities, and a broader perspective, parents can take the following steps: 1. Encourage Independence: Allow children to make their own decisions, even if it means they might fail. Independence fosters self-reliance and empowers children to learn from their mistakes. 2. Provide Guidance, Not Solutions: Instead of solving problems for them, offer guidance and support to help children navigate challenges on their own. This promotes problem-solving skills and builds confidence. 3. Celebrate Effort, Not Just Results: Shift the focus from the outcome to the effort and progress made. Celebrate the journey, highlighting the hard work and determination rather than just the end result. By embracing failures as learning opportunities and allowing children to experience obstacles, we as parents can instill resilience, perseverance, and a healthy attitude towards setbacks in our children. Remember, the path to success is paved with failures, and it's through these struggles that true growth and learning occur. Children cannot be handed everything on a silver or platinum platter. They need to learn that hard work brings greater reward. "Be present. Be incredible.

When was the last time you completed a healthy living goal or task, thinking that would be your everything? You've arrived! Or have you? Completion of one thing needs to be the stepping stone to your next thing, building your momentum— and then! Have you ever achieved a major health goal and thought, "This is it, I've made it"? But what about what comes next? That's where the magic truly happens - in the "and then." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com Completing a health goal is just the beginning. It's the momentum you build after that that propels you towards your next achievement. So, how do you keep that momentum going? How do you stay focused on your personal priorities and live with purpose in your every day? Your life is a journey that deserves to be lived fully - from nourishing your mind, body, and spirit. Don't settle for mediocrity when greatness awaits. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!" ~ Kristianne Wargo The key is to strive for more, to push beyond boundaries and explore the vast possibilities that lie ahead. Keep your wheels turnin'! The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep your wheels turnin'! You must keep the momentum, or you will stall out! Nothing is worse than hitting a stall before you even plateau. The idea for healthy living is not about all the stuff you buy and supplements you take, that's all good. But if you don't keep your wheels turnin', everything is going to stop you. And you are worth more! I want you to hear that today...You are worth more! 1. Celebrate the Achievement: Acknowledge and celebrate the completion of a task. Reflect on the effort, time, and dedication it took to achieve this goal. This celebration can boost confidence and provide a sense of fulfillment, easing any feelings of anxiety or apprehension about moving on to the next task. 2. Set Clear Goals for the Next Task: Define clear and achievable goals for the next task. Breaking down the larger goal into smaller, manageable steps can make the transition feel less overwhelming. This approach helps maintain motivation and provides a roadmap for success, reducing feelings of uncertainty or doubt. 3. Practice Mindfulness and Self-compassion: Embrace mindfulness techniques to stay present and grounded during the transition phase. Acknowledge any emotions that arise, whether it's excitement, nervousness, or even fear of failure. Practice self-compassion by treating yourself with kindness and understanding, fostering a positive mindset as you embark on the next task. CHALLENGE: What's your "and then" in life? What actions can you take today that will shape your tomorrow? When you take time to celebrate achievements, set clear goals, and practice mindfulness and self-compassion, you can go from one thing to the next without interruption or pause. Momentum is on your side when you keep your wheels turnin'! Oh, come on! And then... "Be present. Be incredible.

Today, we remember those who gave everything—their lives, their futures, their dreams—so that we could live in freedom. What freedoms are you thankful for? How can we become so busy that we can't even take 90 seconds to be grateful to those who gave us this country? Our heroes who sacrificed believed so strongly that they were willing to give their lives so you and I could have our freedoms. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com A True Hero Story: On June 6, 1944, during the D-Day invasion of Normandy in World War II, a young paratrooper named Private First Class (PFC) Charles DeGlopper was part of the 82nd Airborne Division. His unit was pinned down by heavy enemy fire, and the mission was on the brink of collapse. Seeing his comrades in danger, PFC DeGlopper made a fateful decision. He stood up in the open, drawing the enemy's attention. Firing his weapon and absorbing countless hits, he kept the Germans occupied long enough for his platoon to maneuver and break free. He was mortally wounded, but his sacrifice saved his unit. For his bravery, PFC DeGlopper was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. His selfless act allowed his fellow soldiers to survive and continue the fight for freedom. The Mindset: PFC DeGlopper’s story highlights the power of selflessness, courage, and belief in something greater than ourselves. He chose to face almost certain death because he believed in the mission and the lives of his friends. This kind of mindset teaches us: Purpose over fear: He didn’t let fear stop him because he focused on his purpose—saving others. Service over self: His actions were driven by what he could do for others, not for himself. Legacy in sacrifice: True courage creates a ripple effect, inspiring others to act bravely and selflessly in their own lives. The K.I.S.S. ~ Show your gratitude! What We Can Do to Show Our Gratitude: Memorial Day isn’t just about picnics or barbecues; it’s about honoring those who gave their all. Here’s how we can truly show our gratitude: ✅ Live with purpose: Let the memory of those who sacrificed inspire us to be better—more kind, more courageous, more willing to serve. ✅ Serve others: Whether it’s helping a neighbor, supporting veterans’ causes, or simply being there for someone in need, these acts of service honor those who died for us. ✅ Reflect and remember: Take time to learn about a fallen hero’s story, like PFC DeGlopper’s, and share it with others. Keep their memory alive. ✅ Express gratitude openly: Thank veterans and military families. Write a letter, attend a ceremony, or visit a memorial to show your respect. Who can you thank today for their service? How can you live your day, and not just today, but every day from this point on, with the heart that someone saw a future for our country before you knew? Today, we remember. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"   #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As Memorial Weekend marks the onset of summertime and the anticipation of vacations and getaways, let's take a moment to consider a different kind of journey – a vacation for the soul. In our fast-paced lives filled with technology, family obligations, and career pursuits, it's easy to overlook the spiritual aspect of our existence. While we strive to fulfill our own desires and obligations, we must also ponder what God's purpose is for our lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com Psalm 23:3 ~ "He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake."  This verse underscores the importance of seeking rejuvenation for our spirits and aligning ourselves with God's will to lead purposeful lives. As we immerse ourselves in holiday celebrations and leisure activities, let us not neglect the essence of our being – our spirit. We are not mere spectators in life but agents of God's divine plan, tailor-made with unique gifts and callings. To live out God's purpose, we must nourish our souls and commit to honoring His desires above all else. The K.I.S.S. ~ A vacation for the soul! Amidst the festivities and revelry, let us make a conscious effort to provide our spirits with the care and sustenance they require: 1. Intentional Rest and Reflection: Set aside moments of quiet contemplation and seek God's presence in stillness. Find solace in prayer, meditation, and reflection to rejuvenate your spirit. 2. Scriptural Guidance: Delve into the Word of God for wisdom and direction. Allow scripture to illuminate your path and inspire you to uphold His desires in your daily life. 3. Community and Fellowship: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can offer support, encouragement, and accountability on your spiritual journey. Share in the joy of worship and fellowship to invigorate your spirit. 4. Service and Purpose: Engage in acts of service and selflessness to fulfill God's purpose for your life. Seek opportunities to spread love, kindness, and compassion to others, reflecting the divine light within you. 5. Prioritize Your Relationship with God: Commit to nurturing your relationship with God above all else. Make Him the focal point of your life and allow His will to guide your actions and decisions. As we revel in the festivities of Memorial Weekend and the joys of summertime, let us not forget to embark on a sacred journey – a vacation for the soul. By tending to our spiritual well-being, we not only enrich our own lives but also honor God's purpose for us. Feast on the nourishment of His word, find solace in His presence, and commit to living out His desires in all we do. In prioritizing our spirits, we discover true abundance and fulfillment in God's divine plan and purpose for our lives. "Be present. Be incredible.

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy for the magic of marriage to get lost in the mix – buried beneath deadlines, to-do lists, and responsibilities. As you enjoy this holiday weekend, take a moment to recommit, reflect, and reignite your love for each other. Holidays give us an excuse to make time for each other. But why do we have to wait. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com As I was sitting at dinner with my family, specifically my daughter and her boyfriend, it took me back to when my husband and I were dating. Life was mostly simple at times, until there was something at school or work, or the family needed us. The struggles were there, but didn't overtake our feelings. However, soon into the marriage, life got a little more real. Time seemed to shrink, and responsibilities seemed to grow. Oh how quick we forget the little things that we said yes to, that now, is only a bother. Oh bother!! (Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh, Disney) In marriage, we can't live our lives like Eeyore.  So instead of letting life lead, you get to lead your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reignite your love! Back when my husband and I were dating, we wrote a ton of letters. The art of letter writing is a beautiful thing, especially when you share your deepest thoughts with the one you love most, your spouse. As let's put pen to paper, and write that love letter. And if you're wondering what to include, here are three essential elements that can breathe new life into your marriage and reignite the flame of your love. 1. Authenticity: Pour your heart out onto the page and express your true feelings without reservation. Be vulnerable, honest, and sincere in sharing your emotions, memories, and desires. Authenticity is the foundation of a deep and meaningful connection, and it allows you to truly understand and appreciate each other on a profound level. 2. Gratitude: Take this opportunity to express your appreciation for all the little things your partner does that often go unnoticed. From the way they make your morning coffee just right to the unwavering support they provide during tough times, acknowledging and thanking them for their efforts can strengthen the bond between us. Gratitude fosters a sense of mutual respect and admiration, reminding us of the countless reasons you fell in love in the first place. 3. Vision for the Future: Paint a picture of the future you envision together – full of love, joy, and shared dreams. Share your hopes, aspirations, and plans for the journey ahead, illustrating a path that you can walk hand in hand. By aligning your visions for the future, you can create a sense of unity and purpose that will guide us through the challenges and triumphs that lie ahead. Now the fun part, give your letter to your sweetheart. Let the beauty and power of your connection and your words serve as a beacon of light that takes you back to the heart of love – where your souls intertwine and your spirits dance in harmony.

When you look at today, where do you want to be on the last day of summer? And what I mean by this is, how do you want to grow and be stretched as a family?  Summers can be challenging because there is more time to fill with activities. But you don't have to do everything. Yet, you do need to be a family and spend time together. The K.I.S.S. ~ Spend time together! That's where everything starts: spend time together! Summertime is not a break from school and studying, but an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with your children. No matter what you do, if spending time together is the result, that's the best summer ever. However, I know there are a few things you can do to help you get through the summer with a smile. So let's look at ten parenting hacks to help you survive and thrive during the summer months. 1. Set a Daily Routine: Establishing a daily routine can provide structure for both you and your kids. Include designated playtime, meal times, and quiet time to maintain a sense of order throughout the day. 2. Create a Summer Bucket List: Involve your children in creating a list of fun activities and adventures they want to experience during the summer. And this bucket list does not have to cost money. Yet, it gives them something to look forward to and helps prevent boredom. 3. Limit Screen Time: While it can be tempting to rely on screens for entertainment, set limits on screen time to encourage outdoor play, creativity, and family bonding. 4. Organize Weekly Outings: Plan weekly outings to parks, museums, or local attractions to break up the routine and keep things exciting for your kids. 5. Schedule "Mom/Dad Time": Prioritize self-care by scheduling regular "mom/dad time" for yourself. Whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or enjoying a cup of coffee in peace, taking care of yourself will help you recharge and be a better parent. 6. Turn Chores into Games: Get your kids involved in household chores by turning them into fun games. Make cleaning up a race or create a scavenger hunt for items that need to be put away. 7. Embrace Messy Play: Let go of the need for a perfectly clean house and embrace messy play activities like painting, water play, or baking together. The memories created will far outweigh the temporary mess. 8. Set Boundaries with Love: Establish clear boundaries with your children and enforce them with love and consistency. Consistent boundaries provide a sense of security for kids and help them understand expectations. 9. Plan Regular Family Parties: Hold weekly family parties to discuss upcoming plans, express concerns, and celebrate successes. Encouraging open communication strengthens family bonds and fosters a sense of teamwork. 10. Practice Gratitude: Encourage your children to practice gratitude by reflecting on the positive aspects of each day. Ending the day with gratitude can shift the focus from challenges to blessings. Create a Summer Gratitude & Joy Jar. Then, you can revisit your memories anytime. By implementing these parenting hacks, you can navigate the summer months with ease and create lasting memories with your children. Remember, finding the balance between boundaries and fun is key to a successful summer for the whole family. "Be present. Be incredible.

In a world where we often strive for perfection and compare ourselves to others, it's easy to lose sight of our own unique journey and accomplishments. But what if you celebrate how far you've come instead of focusing on what you haven't achieved? Give yourself more credit. Life is a rollercoaster of highs and lows, twists and turns, successes and setbacks. It's a constant journey of growth, learning, and self-discovery. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com And through it all, one thing remains true: you have the power to shape your own narrative, to define who you are, and to give yourself the credit you truly deserve. Each morning we wake up is a new opportunity to rewrite our stories, to choose positivity over negativity, and to acknowledge the progress we've made, no matter how small. It's about shifting our mindset from doubt to belief, from criticism to compassion. Rather than dwelling on the challenges we face, let's focus on our strengths, our resilience, and our determination to keep moving forward. Let's acknowledge the little victories, the moments of courage, and the steps we've taken towards our goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Give yourself more credit! Life is too short to be consumed by self-doubt and negativity. It's time to break free from the cycle of doubt and embrace a mindset of empowerment and self-appreciation. Let's take the pain of our past experiences and use them as stepping stones towards a brighter future. There's no reason to live in the bubble of double trouble. Remember, progress is not linear. It's okay to have setbacks and detours along the way. What matters most is that you keep pushing forward, one step at a time, towards your own version of greatness. So, give yourself more credit. Celebrate your journey, your resilience, and your unwavering spirit. Embrace the unique path you're on, and believe in the endless possibilities that lie ahead. You are worthy, you are capable, and you are deserving of all the credit in the world. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Keep taking those steps, believing in yourself, and watching as your journey multiplies your impact. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"   #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?
