Embracing the optimist inside of me

I find myself doing this entirely too often and that WILL stop!  I will think in positives and large numbers.  I will think in terms of how can I make this work, not this will never work and I will treat myself as kindly as I treat others!  I will no longer make limiting statements nor confine myself to thinking that I am not good enough or smart enough to be successful!  I will let the true me shine through, embrace the optimist that truly is inside of me and I will be the very best me that I can be!  

Not my circus, not my monkeys

"There will always be people in your life who will want to suck you into their drama and chaos; your participation is completely optional and entirely up to you. In order to pursue your own priorities you must learn to let go of the people and situations which aren't aligned with the goals and mindset to which you aspire." ~ Scott Klaum

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough and doggonnit people like me!

Sometimes I don't feel like I am good enough, or smart enough, or pretty enough (oh man, that's a common one for me, how about you?).  It seems I am not growing my business as fast as someone else, I'm not to my ultimate physical goal yet.  Everyone is ahead of the me in the game of life!  Do you ever feel that way?  

Well please don't!  Remember this:  

Comparison is the fast track to misery.  We are all on a different journey…there are going to be some people who skyrocket to success, and there are going to be others that sit back and wait for things to happen. But you ~ YOU have your own goals and your own path and what matters is that you FOCUS on what you need to do to make YOUR dreams come true!! The only time you should look to the left, or to the right is to CELEBRATE others, LEARN from them, and even help them, but NEVER to compare! Live by YOUR values…run your OWN race…and by all means, if someone tells you that you can’t do something ~ PROVE THEM WRONG! 

This is YOUR year!

Stop the stinkin' thinkin'!

Lately, I have repeatedly caught myself being quite negative, which is unlike me. I know that thoughts become things and when those thoughts aren't good, things in my immediate space start to fall apart as well. I'm not sure what the underlying cause is, but I'm not putting up with it!  I will replace "those" kinds of thoughts with positive, motivating, uplifting thoughts.  I will make it a habit to pay attention to the mind chatter and to my daily interactions with all of those around me, focusing on the positive and above all being kind to every being that I meet.  I will be a builder upper, not a tearer downer, of myself or others!.

My note to self today is this.
