Good Monday morning. I hope this week is starting off on the right foot. For me it has been going well despite the weekend’s events. One thing I carry into my week with me is learning how to move forward and say what I need to say. This week there are limited amounts of media events for me but a lot of wonderful things happening behind the scenes.
Monday Mantra
If this is your first time reading this blog, you may not know that I love to start my week with a mantra. My mantra for the week is I am worthy and capable. Do you need to hear that? Sometimes we talk ourselves out of what we are worthy of because the people surrounding you are assessing you, self-doubt, or waking up and feeling less than. Remember these are temporary feelings. It is important that we remind ourselves of that consistently. If you woke up even if you weren’t where you thought, you should be that is more ammunition to do more for yourself to get where you want to be. Newsflash none of us are where we should be, so you don’t have to wear your mistakes like a cloak to make others see your sincerity.
Goals for the Week
With it being a short week, everything will get under your skin. My Sunday proved that to be true. I wrote the Sunday Scaries and like clockwork my life lived it even though the blog was written over a week ago and set to release. Isn’t that how life is? You speak something and you end up having to live it. One thing I am proud of is the way that I managed myself and spoke over my children through it. I’m proud everyday that I don’t over or under react. The more that I can hold my position, speak in as much love as the situation will allow, apologize when necessary and not give up.
What are your goals this week? Is it to allow yourself more space and grace? When was the last time you extended grace to your life? Grace is the understanding that you didn’t earn your spot, but you are not allowing the flaws to stop you from reaching it. Grace isn’t earned. It’s the exact opposite of earning it. When I extend grace to my kids, it’s saying I knew you would make a mistake, but my love covered you. In your own mistakes let the will to keep trying cover you. Own your mess but shake yourself and move forward even when people hold your issues against you.
Monday Settings
How did you set yourself up for success this week? For me is blocking out today and tomorrow to get my content aligned for June. I know we have a few more days but most bloggers will create content ahead, work on a schedule or use the week before the new month to set out billing. That is how I am setting my week. Going over my schedule moving meetings that need to be moved and honoring myself to create space to simply breath.
Today I hope you have the most amazing day. Anything you set your heart to do can happen. Take it all in strides. Do your best always and allow yourself to walk in that greatness. Have a great Monday!
