Day 334 of 2022-Last day of November

 Wow and yes its already the last day of November. How did the month end for you? What are some of your thoughts on this last day of November? What's coming up for you as you think about the new year coming up? List all of the things that you are grateful for. 

Take time to reflect at the end of the month and always look and count on the good things that happen.

Think about the holidays coming up in December and since its the last month of the year, give some thought as to how you would like to end the month and make sure to build in some days off to take care of yourself. 

Have a great Wednesday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 333 of 2022- Japanese saying

 A feed I came across for a Japanese saying stated that "Jigou jitoku" means "you get what you deserve."

What you get out of life is what you put in it. As I end the month of November and with the year almost over, I think about what seeds I want to plant to see the benefits. What acts of kindness and generosity am I giving this holiday season and will continue to do every day.

What am I giving back to life which has given me so much? Think about this reflection question as you go about your day. Every act of kindness counts and it does not need to be big. A smile or a hello can brighten someone's day. 

 Jigou jitoku is a good motto  to keep in mind today and everyday.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 331 of 2022- Sunday reflection

 As you get ready to begin another week and a new month this week, think about what's important for you to do or reflect on this week. 

Another month is almost over and the countdown to next year is almost here. The holidays are such a special time so as you begin a new week reflect on what you would like to do this week and make it extra special. 

As always, give thanks for where you are and where you will be going. You never know.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 330 of 2022-Give Thanks

 "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow"-Melody Beattie

The quote by Melody Beattie above is so beautiful and really does express what gratitude is all about. I love that being grateful brings peace and creates a vision. It just makes sense to be grateful. 

I know that being grateful is going to be a regular practice for me. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 323 of 2022- Sky

 I wrote about inspiration yesterday and trying to find it when you can. This morning, I saw the beautiful sky right before sunrise and was just in awe. It truly inspired me to make the most of this beautiful day and weekend. Unfortunately, I did not have my phone on me to take a picture.

Sometimes we forget how much we can get inspired by just the small things. The shades of red, orange, yellow and the blue sky just made it so hard to take my eyes of it. It was hard not to be inspired...

So find that one small thing that will inspire you to do what you want to do. I don't believe you need to go looking for it since it is everywhere. Just look.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 322 of 2022- Friday Inspiration

 Happy Friday! You made it to the end of the week .Hope you find time not only to relax and unwind but find something inspirational this weekend.

Have a great Friday evening!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

 Wow, its mid November already. Spend sometime over the next couple of days to reflect on how the month is going for you.

Day 316 of 2022-Day with friends

 As an introvert, I struggle to make plans with friends. I always prefer my time alone on the weekends and with my kids. It's so draining for me to go out and have a good time. I simply just get too exhausted.

Today was an exception and sometimes you have to make an exception. I went out with 3 friends whom I had not seen in over a year and really had a good time. Part of it was scheduling the meet up early in the day so I am now using my time to unwind and relax.

I had a wonderful day. So this weekend or next or sometime in the future, schedule sometime with friends your have not met in awhile and make it worthwhile. After all, what have you got to loose. As the year comes to an end, reach out and go out. It may be hard especially if you are an introvert but give it a try.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

 The plan for today is to just relax and think about any plans that you can make for the weekend or for Thanksgiving which is only 3 weeks away.

Given the end of the year is coming up so soon, think about what you would like to do every weekend. Also think about what you can do early during the weekdays so that your Friday's feel more free. Maybe even take a half day off or a full day. Enjoying this time of the year is so important.

Day 306 of 2022- Hump Day Motivation

"When someone tells me “no,” it doesn't mean I can't do it, it simply means I can't do it with them".-Karen E. Quinones Miller

The quote is so true right? Don't take no and sit on it. Keep moving forward with someone who will work with you. No is not an answer for you. Somethings maybe a no but if it is something that you want or need don't take it as an answer. Find someone else. 

Hope you are having a great Wednesday!

Day 305 of 2022- November

 So what does this month bring in for you? Take the time to first reflect on October if you haven't already. What are some of the things that you would like to see happen? What are some of you things that you would like to do for yourself?

One of the most important practices that you can put in place is being grateful. I know that things have been so busy and hard for me that it is hard to focus on gratefulness. But that is really the key, intentionally focusing on being grateful. 

So use the time to journal about the month and note all the things that are coming up and the things that you would like to see happen.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace!
