Image by Chen from Pixabay I listened to a YouTube short with the late, great Bob Proctor on the power of deciding. If you have a dream job or side hustle or new habits you long to implement, make the decision to do at least 1 thing each and every day toward those dreams and goals. Dr. Martin Luther King said, “You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” Trust that as you step out in faith, your subsequent actions will be shown to you. Claim that and watch things fall into place. Doesn’t mean you won’t get sidetracked or stuck from time to time but you will learn to grow and pivot until your goal(s) is/are reached. If you’re like me, you have several projects sitting on your computer, numerous business ideas, or a list of dreams and goals you want to achieve in your life. And yet, you don't know where to start. Indecisiveness is simply procrastination brought on by fear. I can tell you from experience how powerful it is to simply decide! Pick one thing and move steadily in the direction of achieving that goal or realizing that dream. Otherwise you’ll die with your dreams still in you. Something to think about...

In a previous blog post, we talked about Self-Care. Today we’re going to discuss Self-Love. Some people think self-love and self-care are the same thing but that’s not necessarily true. Many take care of their health–eat clean, exercise, limit alcohol and sugar intake, etc.–and yet still hate their bodies or have a list of character flaws a mile long. In other words, their internal dialogue is far less than loving toward themselves. Now, by self-love I don’t mean cocky, arrogant or conceited, but a healthy love of Who you are. And who you are is a perfect soul in an imperfect body and imperfect world. What do you see, and say, when you look in the mirror? Are you loving and appreciative of the body you’ve been blessed with or disgusted and disapproving? WHY? Who says what’s good or bad about the vessel that houses your soul? We have allowed the opinions of everyone and everything outside of us to determine our worth! Jesus said we should, “love your neighbor as yourself.” But how can we love our neighbor if we don’t even like ourselves? So, how can we cultivate Self-Love? One way is to simply close your eyes, place your hand over your heart and breathe in, “love.” Another, is to say, “I love you,” instead of just breathing in the feeling of love. One of the best ways is to look in the mirror at yourself, put your hand over your heart, and say, “I love you.” If professing your love for/to yourself feels too icky, start by complimenting yourself. Hey Gorgeous (or handsome). You look good today. I really like your smile or that dress you’re wearing. That color looks good on you! When you begin cultivating self-love, you may feel resistance in your body but if you’ll stick with the practice, I promise you will develop a healthy sense of love, kindness, and compassion for the vessel in which your soul resides. Something to think about!
