What a gift it is that we are here to embrace the task of living this glorious, often messy, life.

Remember, we are all made of stardust, including you and your beautiful, bright self. ♥️⭐️♥️

If you want people to be more civil, work at being more civil to people.
If you want less snarkiness, less sarcasm, less knee-jerk spitefulness, work at responding with less of these in your life.
If you want more kindness and more compassion, then work on giving it in your own life, even when you are not receiving it.
Instead of looking for ways you imagine that you are being slighted, keep your eyes focused on being part of the better-world solution, and slowly, in your corner of it, you will start to see and feel change. ♥️
The world is waiting to be blessed by your fabulousity. ♥️
Failure is just a lesson to make the next attempt better, or the next move clearer.

This is your sign - sent with love and encouragement- to stop scrolling and take one action step right now toward achieving your goals. ♥️
Strategies for Accomplishing your Goals
1. Keep busy and active. If you get into the habit of just sitting around you’ll find your motivation will start to disappear – as achieving goals takes effort, commitment and hard work.
2. Hang out with motivated people. The people we hang out with tend to influence us the most. So, if you hang out with go-getters they’ll help inspire you too – and, like them, you’ll want to persevere, reach your dreams and goals.
3. Make sure you have a concrete goal. Wishful thinking and daydreaming won’t make much of a difference. You need to be determined and formulate clear goals.
4. Tell other people about your plans and goals. Telling others what your goals are keep us more accountable – and stops us getting sidetracked, dropping out or giving up.
5. Seek out a role model. A role model can help us to visualise the steps and actions that are needed to lead us to our goals. Also, it’s likely they’ve encountered some obstacles and setbacks – and that can help inspire us when we meet a roadblock, too!
6. Expect to encounter bumps and obstacles. We all encounter obstacles, setbacks and roadblocks – and knowing that will happen can prepare us mentally. Don’t see that as a reason to give up on your dreams.
7. Break larger goals down into smaller, bite sized goals. That will increase your motivation as you’ll quickly reach small goals, and the end seem much closer, and more achievable.
8. Do the hardest things first. If you put off all the hard things it will drain your energy. But if you take those on as projects you’ll work on those first it will inspire and motivate you so it’s easier to persevere and reach your final goal.
Some would say it’s learning to see others as God sees them. ♥️

Live now - with as many acts of compassion, sacrifice, courage, and kindness - that you can muster. Large, small, doesn’t matter, just keep at it. Even if you don’t see the reward yourself, know that it makes a difference. ♥️
Thanks to @freckles-and-books for inspiring this quote meme from Howard Zinn.
Shine on, friends, shine on. ♥️
Good sleep is so luscious, so healthy! 😊
Cat and Bear.
And more sleep.
You are on your own timeline, writing your own story. Why compare your adventure to someone else’s? Own your own path, and be open and grateful that changes for the better can happen at any time. ♥️
Here’s to 2023, a year of as many little courageous kindnesses as possible. ♥️
Fill your life with adventures, not things. Have stories to tell not stuff to show.

It’s called “Shakeology.” ;-)
And when I am too overwhelmed/unsure/tired/in motion to figure out what to eat that has everything I need in it, something derived from real, whole foods, Shakeology is my daily go-to. Life-saver! :-D
What’s For Dinner?
And more decisions.
In case you are feeling small or unimportant… ♥️
The love of Mama’s eyes. It fills you up, carries you, at least for a moment. Can you be your own “mama?” Can you look at yourself with that same kind of deep, visceral love? Imagine it. How does it feel? 😀♥️
I read a personal coach once, who said to practice being grateful for the struggle, saying to yourself, “This is actually great because__________”, and fill in the blank with what you hope to learn or how you hope to mature or evolve from the experience. ♥️
“Strength comes from your struggle - when you learn to see your struggle as opportunities to become stronger, better, wiser. Then your thinking shifts from “I can’t do this” to “I must do this.””

I believe in the possibility of connection, between us and through to the divine. ♥️
You are worth working for your dreams. ♥️
