Day 121 of 2024- April Month End

 Hey Friends!

Happy April month end! We have finally ended the month and head into much warmer weather at least where I am. 

Oh what a month it has been. For me, this has been a month of lots of revelations. What has this month revealed for you. What newfound insights have you learned. 

There is so much going on in a month and we tend to not notice as much. Month end gives us a chance to go deep and really learn and reflect what the month has brought us. 

So use today or the next couple of days to truly reflect and make sure to include the things that you are thankful for. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace

Day 120 of 2024- Simple rules

 Hey Friends!

Happy Monday. This week's reminder is not to forget the simple rules of daily living. They are:

Taking care of yourself

Going for a walk

Brushing you teeth 2 or 3 times a day

Flossing

Drinking 8 or more glasses of water a day

Smiling

Being kind

Giving hugs and reminding your love ones how much you love them

Feel free to include and think about others rules for daily living. Its sounds simple but with the busyness of life we do tend to forget. So keep these simple rules in front of you always.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace

Day 119 of 2024- 2 days till end of April

 Hey Friends!

We are just a couple of days away from the end of April. Take a note of things that are on your mind. What is coming up for you as we end the 4th month of 2024. 

I will leave you with the words to always try. Try to do the thing that is stopping you, always try to keep at it even if you have experienced road blocks and set backs. Just do that one small thing. What can you try over the next couple of days?

Have a great Sunday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 118 of 2024- Step outside

 Hey Friends!

It is a cold rainy Saturday where I am. I stepped outside to get groceries and stood outside to smell the rain and just feel the cold rain. It felt great. 

I love the rain so friends, when it rains where you are just step outside and smell and feel the rain. Get wet and just enjoy it. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 117 of 2024- Close out

 Hey Friends!

Close the week out by checking out early if you can. Try not to get stressed on Fridays and if anyone bothers you way to much, find an excuse to walk away. I have learned to make my Fridays as relaxed as possible and not let anyone at work stress me out unnecessarily.

Enjoy the end of day and just close out the week with peace and a big smile.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 116 of 2024-Imagination

 Hey Friends!

"Imagination, not intelligence, made us human."-Terry Pratchett

Give more attention to what you are imagining. See beyond your intelligence and imagine. Imagine what you want your life to look like. Imagine your ideal career and reaching your goals. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 115 of 2024-Don't lose your cool

 Hey Friends!

Happy Hump Day! We made it to mid week. I needed a reminder this week to not lose my cool this week. Things happen everyday but take a moment to pause and keep your cool. It does not help you to loose your cool.

What has helped me is to walk away and pause. I need to physically remove myself from the situation, calm myself down and then chose the right response. This was really critical for me the last couple of weeks. Keep reminding yourself to keep your cool. A lot of times, it is just not worth it. 

Think about what you can do to not loose your cool. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 114 of 2024-Think about this quote

 Hey Friends!

"When you run into something interesting, drop everything else and study it."-B.F Skinner

I do that a lot. I drop everything to read a book that has caught my attention. Have you ever come across anything that is that interesting that you just dropped everything else? What was it?

Have a great Tuesday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 113 of 2024- A Small Act

 Hey Friends!

As you start the new week, keep in mind of your actions. Every small little act counts. Read the last sentence again.

Even when you think it is not worth it or it is too much or if no one will notice, think again. This week, focus on your one small act. The one small thing that you can do. What would that look like for you.

Have a wonderful week

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 110 of 2024-Work together

 Hey Friends!

Sometimes it easier to work alone and I have found that to be the case for me. I like to work alone and do better that way. I have also found that working alone is not sustainable in the long run. Therefore, work together. 


I don't have a great manager. In fact, my manager is probably one of the worst ones I have but I have also learned to recognize who she really is and to try to work around her. That has been hard, but if you have to work together in a team, then you have to learn to put the differences aside for the moment at least. 

Most of my work is done without my teams involvement and so I know that is temporarily that I have to deal with it. So learn to work together and know what works for you and doesn't. If it is to much, then find something else. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 109 of 2024- Turn off

 Hello Friend!

For those of you that work from home, I have found that setting a time to log off really works. If it means setting an alarm clock for yourself to remove your self from work, then do it and it works. 

Unless you have something that is truly time sensitive, learn to stop when it is time to stop. You have a life outside of work so turn off your computer and walk away. The work will always be there tomorrow. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 108 of 2024- Note

 Hey Friends!

So I had something happen at work that made me really upset. It was very disturbing to hear from the person that I report to but nevertheless, I believe that one of the ways to help deal with getting upset and angry is to write it down and then tear the paper. 

I usually just text my really good friend or call her once I get calm and just get through the emotions. You need to find a way to get it out and if you can't call a friend then write it down. 

You will get through it. Feel what you feeling and process it. Write it down.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 107 of 2024- Mid Month

 Hey Friends!

We are through the mid way point in April. Take the time to note how things are going. Journal your thoughts and reflect on how the month is shaping. What are some of your expectations that are being met? What are some of the things that you would like to see happen before the month end?

Were there any surprises this month? Was it a good one? Reflect on how your felt and how you would like to feel going forward. Journaling is a great way to do this. You can write it down or type it. The goal is to do it. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 102 of 2024-Can you

 Hey Friends!

I leave you with 2 words and that is "Can you".

Can you remember your why

Can you think about things that you are grateful for

Can you remember to set your intentions every morning

Can you do the things that you said you would do

Can you remember to have faith

I hope the about 5 reminds you of the things that you can do. Think about your own things and write down 3 other things for yourself.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 98 of 2024- If you are dreading

 Hey Friends!

If you are dreading the start of the week and what is coming, I suggest trying to change your perspective. Given we really can't control what's coming or certain situations with work and home, then you can change the way you think about it. 

For me, sometimes when it is going to be a busy week and I have a very incompetent boss, I keep reminding myself that this is a temporary situation. That this is not something that will last forever and I know my worth. 

So in your situation, keep remining yourself that you can change your view. Think of something that helps change your view. If nothing else note that nothing lasts forever. Not even having to deal with an incompetent boss. 

Wishing you peace and  happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 96 of 2024- Friday reminder

 Hey Friends!

So just a reminder we are at the end of the week and the end means leaving everything behind and moving on. You can complain but keep it to a minimum and move on from there. 

There's a lot more weeks waiting for you in your life.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 95 of 2024- Happiness quote

 Hey Friends!

For me this maybe the best description of what happiness is:

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony."-Mahatma Gandhi

What is your definition of happiness? It is so individualized and personal and it is not a one size fits all. The above quote is probably the best way to think about it. Journal about what that means for you. 

Have a great afternoon.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Regards,

Monita

Day 93 of 2024-If you are having a bad morning

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!
