Day 121 of 2023-Happy last day of April

 Hey Friends, hope you all are enjoying the weekend and getting ready for the week to begin. Four months done already this year. It has been a good year so far but we can always make it better.

Note of all the things that you are grateful for that happened this month. What are some of the kind things that others did for you and you for others?

What are some of the things that you got done or started on for yourself and towards your career? What are some of the things that your learned that month?

Its always good to end the month with a reflection on how things went and how you  would like things to continue next month or for the rest of the year. Remember you are on the drivers seat and you can do a lot of things that are within your control which is a lot. 

Have a great last day of April and enjoy your Sunday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace

Day 116 of 2023-Don't delay

Hello Friends, hope you all are having a good week so far. 

So this came across my mind today. If you like to do something and have not done it or got to it, figure out how you can get to it. We all have a tendency to procrastinate so figure out what you need to start or do what you need to. Time waits for no one so don't delay. Note just one thing that you can do today and mark it checked when you are done. 

Have a great evening!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 115 of 2023-So true

" A problem clearly stated is a problem half solved."- Dorothea Brande, author

Isn't it true that if you clearly state what the problem or issue is, then you are half way there. I believe that in any work or anything that you are experiencing being able to truly express the feelings, the situation as it is then you are half solving it. 

It also goes along with being able define it as is. So this week, your challenge is to truly understand the problem and then clearly state it as it is. The key is understanding it first. 

Have a great week!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 114 of 2023- As you start the week

 "Success is a collection of problems solved."- I. M. Pei

Remember that as you overcome whatever difficulties come your way whether this week or in the past, that is success. If you still are facing the issues and solving them, then every one issue faced or solved is success. It may not have been solved to your liking but nevertheless your faced it and tried to own it and that is success too. 

Keep that in mind as you head into the week. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 111 of 2023-Wake up feeling tired

 If you are up and already feeling very tired and just down, lean in to it. Lean into whatever it is that you are feeling. It will not make the tiredness go away or perk you up, however, the awareness does make a difference. 

So the motto for today is just lean in. Its all going to be okay someday.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 109 of 2023- A great quote to remember

 "You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist."-Friedrich Nietzsche.

I love the quote above from Nietzsche work where he really emphasized people to think on their own and personal freedom. Only you know the way and if you believe its the right one, then follow it. 

Think about what the above quote means to you. 

Have a great evening.

Day 106 of 2023- Yay for Satruday

 Gandhi said "In a gentle way, you can shake the world".

What can you gently do today so shake the world or just your surroundings? Sometimes just listening or smiling at someone makes a difference.

Day 105 of 2023-Crazy Friday

 There are days where Friday does not feel like a Friday and its when you have so many meetings and things to do that it does not seem like a weekend. 

People at work can be so difficult and when you have no choice but back to back meetings, you just remember to breathe through the 8 hours. Its hard and having a crazy and hectic Friday does not make it easy to start the weekend.

I do take the time at the end of the day to just take a few minutes to myself and try to destress and let the day go before starting the weekend. 

It works if you can just close your eyes for a couple of minutes and release any tension spots on your shoulders, neck, jaws or anywhere you hold tension. Once you do that, it puts you in a better position to start the weekend.

So my friends, great job in getting through the week and Friday. Its almost the end of day!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace

Day 104 of 2023- Good evening

Day 103 of 2023-Your Hump Day Quote

 "Living with regrets is like driving a car that only moves in reverse."-Jodi Picoult

All of yesterdays are gone so there is really no point in regretting but I know we all do. We are human and we have regrets. Its easy to say not to but a lot harder to just stop regretting. 

I like the quote above and its a great one to remember when your mind is stuck in regretting. Know that you are moving in reverse and for me, it immediately helps me to want to think about just keeping my car moving forwards. 

Keep this quote close to you. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 102 of 2023-Go out

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 101 of 2023-Monday quote

 "We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain".-Alan Watts

Day 100 of 2023-Already!

 Ah yes the 100th day of 2023. I won't say hard to believe its the 100th day since its not hard to believe that time does go by fast. 

Great time to note how things are going for you this year. Any thing that you want to do or accomplish, know that there is still time. You can still start and no, its never to late. There is till 265 days left in the year which is a lot. 

Take the time to reflect on the question on how would you like to end the year. What are the things that you are learning and are grateful for? Take the time to note these down and visit it frequently as you go through the year. 

Have a great Sunday and hope you get the chance to relax.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

 "This stepping out into what is unknown, uncharted, and shaky that's called liberation,"-Pema Chodron

It is certainly scary but to feel the true liberation that you want and probably need is and can be liberated. 

What is the gentle push that you need? Think about what the one small step you can take to feel a little shaky this week. No need to push to hard, just gently. Note how that feels and reflect on it.

Have a great Sunday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 94 of 2023- A Haikus

 A Haikus is poetry that originated from Japan around the 17th century and became popular around the world. 

A Haikus captures a moment and here is one that I came across:

 I write, erase, rewrite
Erase again, and then
A poppy blooms.
— Katsushika Hokusai, “A Poppy Blooms”

I absolutely love the above poem. It brought me a lot of awareness and made me think. Hope it does make you think as well. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 93 of 2023-April Start

 This is officially the start of the first week of April. I hope you have a great month. Know that I believe in you and most importantly, you need to believe in yourself. 

Lay out some plans for this month. The weather is getting really nice here in the east coast and it is certainly helping out my mood. The days are longer and that helps with feeling good as well. 

Be good to yourself and patience with others. Have a good month and plan out how you would like to see the month end. What are some of your goals this month?

Have a great Sunday and rest of the week!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 92 of 2023-Spring break

 Its a great start to spring break for us. The weather is beautiful and being at home is really nice. Spending time with kids and friends is the plan over the next week. 

Spring truly represents the start of something new. I love the weather and its great to see nature blooming again. Nature never fails us and when its time to bloom its does, there is no thinking twice. 

So I hope that this spring you find the area that you need to bloom in. If you are on spring break or already had spring break, hope you enjoy it. Be as present as you can and spend lots of time in nature. Spring on this year you all.

Have a great weekend!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!
