Happy Monday everyone! Today I want to challenge you to be thankful for what you have. It’s so easy to look at the things and experiences that other people have and compare them to yours. Everyone’s journey is so different. It’s also easy in the age of social media to assume everyone is so happy and has a better life than you. I’m guilty of doing this myself, every so often. I always try to remind myself of everything I’ve been given and everything I’ve worked for. After that I also remind myself that there are some people worse off…

This is definitely something I live by. There’s nothing I hate more than someone spewing bullshit to me, that they’re sorry or that they didn’t mean what they said or did, and then, THEN, ten minutes later they’re doing the same thing they just apologized for. I mean, WHAT?! I’m not sure why people do this, but it’s literally the easiest way for me to cut you off. Always watch what people do. I love being observant. If a man or woman, constantly tells you how much you mean to them, how much they love you, how they would give…

I am the QUEEN of biting off more than I can chew. For as long as I can remember I’ve always been doing what others would call too much. Whether it was sports (aka cheerleading and gymnastics, did you think I actually did common sports? haha never – nothing else came as easy), after school activities, clubs, job(s), making time for my friends and family, working out, volunteering; I always did as much as I possibly could. I still do this today. Granted, I didn’t do all these things consecutively everyday, but spaced out over a lifetime it’s definitely a…

I almost never sleep in these days. I always feel like I should be doing something. Whether it’s for my blog, for work, making time for my friends and family, for my health or simply running errands, there’s always something to do. Anytime I feel myself saying I’m so tired, or I don’t feel like doing something, I think about all I have to accomplish. You should always work on making yourself better and chasing your dreams. Set goals and stick to them. Literally or figuratively sleeping-in or waiting to chase your dreams, almost always defeats the purpose. You may…

It’s a fact of life that not every one is nice, not everyone has empathy and not everyone thinks before they speak. Sometimes good kind people even say something they don’t mean or out of anger. When we feel judged, picked on, targeted and just in the crossroads of someone having else a bad day, we get upset and our feelings get hurt. Don’t let these experiences make you think any less of yourself. I personally found this to be extremely true when applying for jobs. There’s nothing worse than someone telling you exactly WHY they’re deciding not to hire you.…

Sometimes its so hard to take the bad with the good. No matter how blessed I’ve been throughout my life, when unideal situations arise and I’m struggling, it’s not easy to wake up everyday and say I accept this challenge or this lesson. Thank you for bringing me challenges in my life, for I know they will make me better. That’s a hard statement, especially when you’re going through a rough time. It’s even harder when you’ve personally made a mistake. I always try to be as positive as possible when things don’t go my way. I’ll admit it’s hard…
