Today I challenge myself to put myself out there in ways that scare me, that make me nervous, and that set me up for possible rejection, in the hopes of moving my life goals to the next level…wish me luck!

How do you want to feel today? The choice, in large part, is up to you, based on which thoughts get your attention. This is the message I’ll be reminding myself of all day today…

Today I noticed the wonderful fragrance of a tree in the yard of the house I’ve been dogsitting at for two weeks. I walk by it a few times a day but didn’t notice it until just now. Maybe it suddenly bloomed in full today, or maybe…just maybe…meditating consistently for the first time in my life is allowing me to be more present and notice “magic moments” more often. I wonder…

After a couple weeks of doing these new routines and habits, they are certainly starting to get easier to remember to do, and I can already start to feel the compounding positive benefits. Mondays are generally my day off from exercising, and I find my mind and body wanting to fill any potential extra time in my day today with more meditation, earthing, motivational speeches, etc., getting creative in how to add them into my day while still doing my normal duties (such as working with my remote personal training clients and doing laundry/work emails/child care, etc.) by inviting my kid to try meditating with me and by listening to a motivational speech while taking a shower.
