Everything Changes…

by

Everything changes. This is especially obvious as we change seasons.

Change is a normal part of life, yet we tend to fight change. As winter turns to spring, here are some tips for change:

  • Practice gratitude
  • Accept your emotions
  • Maintain focus
  • Adopt a positive attitude
  • Change your routine
  • Make a commitment
  • Visualize success

Change happens. Life happens. Consider this…who do you want to be?

“There are those who make things happen, there are those who watch things happen and there are those who say what happened?”

~Robert T. Kiyosaki

Trust Yourself

by

When going through change, trusting in yourself can help you achieve success and limit anxiety.

Self-trust as a reliance on one’s own ability to handle life.

Self-trust is the mindset that ‘whatever comes my way, I will be able to handle it.’

Here are some tips to build trust in yourself:
• Set reasonable goals
• Be kind to yourself as you would to a friend
• Acknowledge your achievements
• Spend quiet time – just be
• Build on your strengths
• Forgive yourself of the past or mistakes
• Let go (of fear)
• Decide and move on
• Acknowledge that ‘when I am calm and relaxed, I make good decisions’
• Follow your heart/intuition
• Know your intentions
• Practice integrity
• Use positive self-talk
• Focus on attitude or “if you think you can…’
• Be willing to take risks
• Practice self-care
• Reward yourself

Trusting yourself is one of the most supportive things you can do for yourself. It can help build your confidence, allow others to trust you more, and make the process of decision-making much easier. To trust yourself, all you need is to make a little effort, create self-love, and find the ability to self-reflect and then step into the life you are dreaming of.

So, during this month, think about one thing you can do to transform your body, physical activity, eating or belief about food and health and then set a goal to do so.

Creating New Habits

by

Most times when we are attempting to change our habits, we approach it by giving something up. What if your approach was to create a new habit instead?
You can create new habits successfully by having a plan. Here are some tips for doing that:

  • Know your goal or destination: make it a SMART goal.
  • Write down what the goal means to you: identify the benefits of achieving the goal.
  • Consistent practice yields results: set up triggers to remind yourself of your goal such a sticky note on your mirror or affirmations or an alarm on your phone.
  • Acknowledge and take baby-steps: create small achievable action steps to move you toward your goal.
  • Work you goal into your daily routine: calendarize action steps toward achieving your goal into your day.
  • Be patient with yourself: work toward excellence and don’t expect perfection because you will then set yourself up for failure.
  • Be accountable: evaluate progress, be honest, take responsibility for missteps and refocus from lessons learned.

By applying these tips, you can make your new habit really stick.

So, what goal have you decided on

40 Days of Clutter Busting

by

I was contemplating the start of Lent on March 6 and thinking about what I would be focusing on during those 40 days in 2019.

During the six weeks of self-examination and reflection, Christians who observe Lent typically make a commitment to fast, or to give up something—a habit, such as smoking, watching TV, swearing, or a food or drink, such as sweets, chocolate, or coffee.

What if I we used the 40 days of Lent to assist us in letting go of clutter? That would help us give up things that no longer serve us, keep us stuck or It could be one item each day, one bag each day/week or decluttering an area at a time. Or you could commit to daily journaling on the topic of decluttering your life. If declutter is difficult for you, this could help you get started on that journey.

I am committing to declutter during those 40 days by letting go of one item cluttering my life (space, mind or body) each day.

Will you join me in this decluttering journey? What do you commit to declutter during your 40 days?
