Morning Mantra: “Change is not an event, it’s a process.”

Everyone understands that if you don’t like something you should change it. And if you can’t change it, you have to accept it. It’s easy to think that once you make the difficult decision to change something in your life that it’s done. Now, everything is different, better, fixed.

The decision to change is only the first step. There are a million small steps that are taken to achieve big change. There will even be sone steps in the wrong direction thrown in. Just remember, your desire to change isn’t going anywhere unless you keep moving towards your goal.

Compassionate self-awareness will guide you; harsh self-criticism will only hold the pattern in place. Every day adjust and take a step in the right direction. Then another. Honoring the process and yourself along the way.

Let it Be Hope

Morning Mantra: “Once you choose hope, anything is possible.”

If you only carry one thing throughout your entire life, let it be hope.

Let it be hope that better things are always ahead.

Let it be hope that you get through even the toughest of times.

Let it be hope that you are stronger than any challenge that comes your way.

Let it be hope that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be right now.

Let it be hope that you are on the path to where you are meant to be forever.

Because during these times, hope will be the very thing that carries you through.

The Author

Morning Mantra: “I trust the next chapter because I know the author. And the author is me.”

Isn’t it great that you get to write the story of your life? You get to decide the characters that are in it. You get to decide how the main character (you) will think, feel, act, and interact with the supporting characters.

Sure, the plot may have some unexpected twists that surprise you, but you get to decide how they affect you and how you will change in response to them.

Without realizing this, many people allow life to write the story for them without taking DELIBERATE action to write their story in their own voice. Or they allow other people to tell them how the story should go. Remember, YOU are the author of your story, don’t let anyone else hold the pen.

You can trust the next page, chapter or the end, because you get to write, edit, and rewrite it every day.

Bad Days

Morning Mantra: “When you have a really bad day, try to treat the world better than it treated you.”

Some days life is just hard. And some days are just rough. And some days you have to cry before you move forward. And all of that is OK.

Yesterday was one of those days for me. Nothing went right. My horse is lame, my business went into chaos, I found a tick on me, and I received a disappointing letter. It all piled up until I had to cry and release all the sadness.

Oddly enough, these rough days are the days that make you value the great days, the ones where you laugh and you smile and you appreciate everything you have in your life.
If you have a bad day, try to remember it’s just a day, not your life.

Flip the Script

Morning Mantra: “The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.”

Here’s a challenge for today (well for everyday until it becomes unnecessary). Every time a negative thought comes into your mind, challenge yourself to think of two positive things about yourself, or your situation.

It’s time to flip the script in your head. Changing your thoughts can change your life. There is always something positive happening.

So, if you hate your jiggly thighs and that’s all you can think about when you’re invited to a pool party, flip the script! Instead, think of how they support your body and help you walk, and that science has proven that people with big thighs have a lower risk of heart disease. It’s true!

If you are obsessing over your bank account, flip the script! Think about how lucky you are to be able to change that. You have skills that can transfer into income, for instance, you can hear and read! Or you wouldn’t be listening to this or reading it.

Stuck in a unfulfilling relationship and you can only think about how lonely you are? Flip the script! You can start a plan to end it. You can rely on your friends for companionship until you move on.

Challenge yourself to change the voices in your head to see the brighter side of life. It’s not easy. It’s easier to stay stuck in the negative mindset, but it IS possible.

Let Them Choke

Morning Mantra: “Stop cutting yourself into tiny pieces, stay whole and let them choke.”

This quote is from a really good book, "Women don't owe you pretty." by Florence Gibbons. In it she explains that many women live the "splintered life", with fragmented version of themselves.

They’ve chosen the versions of themselves that they think are ideal, acceptable, approachable, and loveable. But they are not whole. They are not being the fullest version of themselves because they are afraid of being vulnerable.

Now why would we refrain from being our fullest, most authentic selves? Because we are afraid we’re not going to be accepted by everyone. But THAT’S OK! You don’t need everyone to accept you. You only need those that are willing to embrace your whole self.

You must realize that you will never be accepted by everyone- even if you continue to splinter yourself to fit each situation. Just be yourself so that you can truly connect with those that WILL accept and love you for who you are. These people will make you feel emotionally safe.

It is better to be accepted for who you fully are, than to live falsely by trying to please everyone.
