I recently finished my first ‘Own Your Everyday- 90 Days of Victory’ Journal by Jordan Lee Dooley, and I had so many good lessons learned that I wrote and thought – Wow that was powerful. So, for lack of words today, here are some thoughts that I have journaled in the last 90 days.
Deal with what is needed for today. Leave for tomorrow what can wait. Don’t get worked up about what is out of your control.
Don’t let yourself get so bothered about things that have an end date.
It is okay to be still. It is okay to go slow.
Be who you are – let others think what they will think. Be the best version of you. Don’t hide.
Feed yourself, drink water, breathe, and you can do a lot of things.
Let the little things shine bright in the dark days.
You need to feel your feelings to keep moving on to the next ones.
Don’t underestimate your own abilities because of the box others fit you into.
Patience as seasons in life happen is needed so that you are not waiting for your life to be over.
Small gestures can mean so much when done with love.
It is good to have routines, but it is good to have grace with yourself when you get out of those routines.
You cannot expect help without asking for help. We are not meant to do life alone. Ask for help.
Make the little moments of joy the big moments by acknowledging them.
Be as kind to yourself as you would be to a friend.
God’s plan is always better than mine. Trust it. Don’t be scared to live with unknowns. Embrace them.
It is okay not to accomplish everything every day.
Stop anticipating being afraid. Don’t be too anxious about the unknown. – Let God give you more than you can imagine.
Don’t loose your hope.
Let yourself be distracted from work. Life is too short to give it all away.
No matter what part of your day you are in, it is never too late to find the joy and enjoy the time you have left.
Some days it is okay to let things happen around you.
Always be willing to learn.
Notice the people who care about the little things. You have people in your life who care. Let them in. Don’t turn them away.
Slow fade into depression takes a slow enlightening to get out into the light.
Letting people in is what will help you let it go.
Take the waves of life head on with your faith.
Trusting that everything will be okay is a big ask, but believing it is when miracles happen.
It is okay to let your heart hurt. Don’t be afraid to stick up for yourself.
When GOD is your peace, you do not worry about earthly issues.
Embrace God’s peace while it is filling you. Do not get rattled by the fear of the world.
When something is on your heart, it is on your heart for a reason. Speak it. Believe it. Tell your friends about it.
Sometimes we need to hit bottom in order to push off of the ground and allow yourself and those around you to share love to help you get back up.
Make time to be so that you do not get lost in the ways of the world.
Be careful with the words you use, who hears them, who hears you say them.
Be glad that you are here. Know that everything is temporary. You are capable of loving big.
Be open to possibilities. If you close yourself off, you might be missing out on something you have been praying and waiting for.
Part of balancing life is also adapting to change as it comes. Don’t just stand still. Move with your life.
Be kind. Be grateful. Be loved.
Be patient and clarity will come your way. When we get impatient is when clarity goes away.
Learning how to live life one day at a time while also planning ahead is part of the balancing act of life.
These are just a few of the many thoughts and phrases, but I hope that one or more of them speaks to you also.
I pray you feel heard, loved and valuable today and every day.
