Hi Everyone!!
At this point in the year we’re all getting
exhausted. We just can’t wait for the summer time even though we’ve only gone
through winter for a short time. Everyone is letting go of all the essentials: the
hair (solution: winter hats and beanies), the waxing (seriously? You’re in
stockings all day and leg warmers at night and long sleeve tops), the
exercising (it’s too cold and you’d rather remain in bed) and the New Year’s
Resolutions (gurl, that was 6 months ago okaaaaaaaay??)
So a couple of thoughts come up.
1.
How will you spend the rest of
the year?
2.
Re-evaluate your goals/adjust
/create new ones?
3.
Make life altering changes?
If you’ve gotten comfy with your
surroundings and you haven’t done something exciting all year you obviously
need to shake things up. It must be awful to drag yourself all year. You have
no memories of anything and you can’t remember when you did what because you’re
passing through your own life!
-Make a list of things you want to do!
Things you like but haven’t done and atleast attempt to do one thing!
-Surround yourself with people with similar
interests. Challenge each other in becoming better version of yourselves. Don’t
compete. There’s nothing that tears girls apart faster than that (except boys,
LOL)
-If the goals you made at the beginning of
the year are unrealistic, don’t scrap them – just re-adjust. Make them more
flexible and make them work for you. There’s nothing worse than being strangled
by a schedule that you created.
-My life altering change would be to change
careers but I’m not financially ready for it. Even taking a leap needs
planning. You don’t want to hate yourself for pursuing a dream. Your dream will
die and then you won’t have anything to live for and that is worse than a
tragedy.
-Be ready for anything. Never limit
yourself in a little box. I did that for years and finally when I realized how
round the earth was, I started opening myself up to new possibilities. In order
to go to New York I had to go through a panel interview. Guys, a one on one
interview used to render me mute! And
then I had to go through five accomplished adults. One man came out of the
interview and told the next candidate what an amazing young woman I was and if
you ask me today what the questions were – I wouldn’t even be able to tell you
because I was so scared. And then a couple of months later I took my first
flight to the Big Apple. Risks=Rewards.
-Shy doesn’t mean unable. When I was
younger I used to think that no-one wants to hear me speak. I think I didn’t
want to hear myself speak. I just thought that seeing that I wasn’t outspoken,
my opinion didn’t matter. And that’s how most things passed me by. Looking
back, that’s the worst thing that I had to go through in highschool but finding
myself step by step was also good for me!
All the above mentioned options are all
open and are without restriction. Shake off the last 6 months and look forward
to shaking things up in the second part of the year!
Live loud. And Live Free!
Till next time!!
