Don't Look At Their Results

 Being in a rush only causes anxiety!

Don't look at someone else's results or progress and feel bad about yourself that you are not there yet. 

Everything takes time, there is no need to rush something before its time. I am learning and relearning everyday to run in my own race and not rush things. Practice is the exercise of perfecting my craft, over time the baby steps will yelled big results. Your time and your season will come, keep going at your pace.

My Season Will Never Pass You By

I strongly believe that whatever is for me is for me, it will never be given to someone else. There is no need to worry because my future is safe and secure. It's never too late and I am never too old as long as I keep giving my best effort I will get where I need to be. It's the same for you, keep believing and keep going working at your goals. 

Finding Time For Self-Care

In these a few weeks I have struggled with finding time for self care. With my children being home full time is has been hard to find time for myself. It was hard enough before the pandemic, the pandemic has just increased the business of household life. Before the pandemic the time I spend at the gym after school drop offs were priceless. I would sit down in the massage chair at the gym and relax before beginning my workout routine. The fun didn't stop there, I would put on my headphones and turn on my favorite tunes and sing along during my workout. Oh how I miss those days.

The Struggle Is Real!!

Although, I have a treadmill at home, I can't seem to find the time to workout. When I do get the chance to hop on the treadmill, it just does not feel the same as the freedom of the gym. I seem to get bored very quickly. I am trying to develop a new routine at home but it's so hard. 

Finding A New Normal

I know that I will get bored easily just walking on the boring treadmill, I am thinking of switching things up on a daily basis to have a variety of ways to practice self care. Wish me luck as I go on my journey of trying to find the new normal in these pandemic times. Be safe, and wishing you all good health and happiness. 

Be Patient With Yourself!

I get very impatient with myself sometimes, and I can also be hard on myself. 

Staying Focused

It's hard to stay focused on my goals when I feel like things are happening too slow. I start to ask myself "what's is the point of all this" Have you asked yourself this very question?

Don't worry you will reach your goals. We have pondered the disappointments that life presents. However, this is not the end and "baby steps" really does give big results. I  have looked at the success of certain athletes and business people. After listening to their story about success they all have one thing in common. Time and time again I hear them say to take baby steps, start out small and build from that, most importantly to never give up. I have to remind myself that it's alright to start off small, there is no shame in that. Everyone has to start somewhere, practicing my craft are just baby steps that will prepare me for something bigger. When I am tempted to get impatient with myself, I will remember to trust the process. 

Whatever you are going through, remember to trust the process and you will reach your goal. 

Not Everyone Deserves Access To Your Life

It's your life do what is comfortable for you!

Living in the social media age is tough, it feels like all eyes are on me at all times. 

Social media is NOT the enemy, it is good for a lot of things like connecting with friends and family. Also, there are a lot of helpful information that can be learned from social media. The down fall of it is that people can become intrusive, this can also happen in everyday life not just on social media. 

I tend to pick and choose what I post lately. People can become intrusive instead of just taking a post for what it is. I draw the line at a person being intrusive to the point of asking very personal questions. 

I don't know why this has become the culture of social media, there are people who feel like it's their right to know every detail of a person's life.

Protecting Your Space

It is your right to protect your space so that you can feel safe.

Share what you feel comfortable sharing and keep the rest personal. It is never someone else's right to have access to your life, You have a right to choose who has access to your life. There are few people in my life that I feel comfortable talking to about very personal things, while with others I filter what I say. There is a different level of trust that I have with different people. I know who deserves full access and who deserves limited access. This is how I keep peace in my life, because not everyone deserves full access to me. This has brought me a lot of healing and confidence. Boundaries are healthy and necessary for growth and wellness.
