Good morning. Whether you are off this President Day or working like me today’s motivation is about reminding you to take care of you. I know you have a lot on your mind and heart. I know you have a to do list that’s super long, but taking care of you while you accomplish these goals is extremely important. Happy Monday, let’s crush the day!
Is it Okay to be Selfish? Monday Affirmations
People talk about not being selfish in life and that’s real. However there are a few things that you must be selfish in and that’s taking care of you. Not worrying about everyone else around you and then setting you on the list last. I hear so many people say how much time they don’t have. Yet if you are sitting up at night stressing you have time to find ways of taking care of your needs. How can you use the time you think you don’t have? Simple. Learn to make a list. Cross off things as you get them done and move on to the next thing. Make a list of health related items to get done.
Check up and Check In.
Did you get your teeth checked in last 6 months? If you are a woman have you had your gynecological exam and breast examined? Men if you are of age have you checked your prostate and have a physical? I know you’re tough and are okay but a physical will lay it all on the table. Start there. That’s checking your health. What about mental health? How are you REALLY doing? Do you find yourself snapping out on others around you? Could you benefit from therapy to attack some stressors and old pain that’s not healed. Healing will bring things to the surface for you to deal with and not ignore.
Goal Setting and Monday
How about how you make a living or accomplish those goals? Are you walking in your purpose? Do you wake up every day dreading going into work because its simple just filling the time on Earth and paying your bills? Have you considered using that job to reach your ultimate goal. This means sitting down and making a 1 month, 6 month, 1 year, etc. plan. Yes work in the day, and at night find a way to put aside money for your dream. This changes how you wake up. Yes the folks on the job irritate you, but you aren’t working for a check anymore. You are now working towards a dream. See how you can switch the perspective?
Get up and do one thing this morning that is about change. This morning I woke up with the world on my mind. I said Toi today is about how you can make a few things happen. I looked at my vision board and said today I will attack one thing from each category to get to my vision. A vision is simply the guideline but you have to put in the work to make it happen. Those cut outs are only helping you visually see the steps, so let’s get to the steps. Happy Monday and crush those goals. Trust me life is going to throw enough curve balls. You got to know when to let a few go past you, duck, and catch the ones that are for you. Today, its okay to focus on your goals. I would hate to see all that life inside of you diminish because your focus was fixing everyone else and not living your best life. Happy Monday let’s do great things today!
