Communicate (Talk) Openly, Clearly, And Directly–It’s Good For Everyone Involved #WeeklyChallenge #MondayMotivation

This Week’s Challenge:

Communicate (talk) openly, clearly, and directly–it’s good for everyone involved. #WeeklyChallenge #MondayMotivation

I’m guilty of not being clear and direct.

Fear of not wanting to come across a certain way…

Fear of hurting the other person…

But I’m learning that being open, clear, and direct is truly the greatest gift we can give–to ourselves and others.

Happy Monday! 💙

Remember, You Can’t Change People, But You CAN Change Yourself #WeeklyChallenge #MondayMotivation

This Week’s Challenge:

And it’s a tough one…

Remember, you can’t change people, but you CAN change yourself. #WeeklyChallenge #MondayMotivation

Sometimes the change WE make is to stop fighting, stop talking in circles, stop wishing things were different… and gently walk away. 💔

Don’t Go To The Grocery Store Hungry

Three days ago, I went to the grocery store hungry. And now this is what I keep eating for breakfast. Luckily, they’re almost gone. 😁

Trying To Get Back In Shape

I know I look miserable, but I’m actually happy and excited!

And my little dog is behind me enjoying a treat. 😁

The Woman's Handbook

I randomly opened The Woman’s Handbook…, for this week’s challenge.

Looking back over the past couple years, it’s clear that I’ve searched out distractions to avoid my life, future…

And. It. Has. Been. AWESOME! 🙂

Fortunately, I’ve been focused lately and what a difference that makes—not as fun, but much more fulfilling.

While home with my sick dog, I’ve completed old, lingering tasks from my to-do list, some more than two years old. Yikes! And I’m only 1/3 of the way…

I will stay focused on my list, but I am a little nervous… What will happen when this list is complete? What will I focus on next?

Have a great week!
