Welcome to Kelly’s Apple A Day – Sixty seconds on wisdom, success and personal growth. This month, we’re seeking growth by understanding core values.

Today’s Core Value is: Achievement. Maya Angelou said, “All great achievements require time.” What are some of your achievements? When I ponder this question about my value in my own achievements, not too many of them are found in financial rewards. I feel my Master’s Degree in Psychology was a personal achievement, and one that I am extremely happy with. And yes, it took a lot of time. Writing my book Heart Lessons is another one of my achievements that I value. But, my greatest achievement is my children. I raised them with love, respect and a commitment to their wellbeing and happiness. Jim Rohn said, “The greatest gift you can give to somebody is your own personal development. I used to say, ‘if you will take care of me, I will take care of you.’ Now I say, ‘I will take care of me for you, if you will take care of you for me.’” Achieve something great! And know it’ll take time.

This has been Kelly’s Apple A Day –now go out and be fruitful.
