Tell Your Story - Inspire Others



Once upon a time....

We all have stories to tell, and we should tell them!  People may be on the same journey as we are on, but that journey is totally different for everyone.  Your story may inspire me.  My story may inspire you, or someone else.  I have told some of my stories throughout this blog.  I hope that someone has who has read my stories, has been touched, and found a little bit of hope and inspiration for themselves.  My stories may not resonate with everyone.  I don't expect everyone to see themselves in my story.  Your story may resonate with someone, when my story didn't!

Share your story!  This doesn't mean that you have to tell things that you don't want people to know.  It doesn't have to be a confessional-type story unless you want it to be.  (I think everyone has things that they will never share with anyone, and that's alright.) Think of how good it will feel when your story inspires someone, and they tell you that they are inspired because of what you shared.  You have now made a difference to someone!

Once upon a time, I heard someone's story, and I was inspired.  It made me feel good at a time when I needed it.  I was only beginning to feel good about myself for the first time in a long time.  It made me want to make others feel good.  I took that inspiration, and started this blog.  I know I won't reach everyone, but, I also know, that it only takes reaching one person to make a difference!  I still have stories to tell, and I will tell them along the way, hoping to reach someone and make them smile, make them laugh, or make a difference in some other way.

We all have things in our lives that we are not exactly proud of, but we only have to share what we feel comfortable sharing.  Don't be ashamed of your story!  Tell it!  It will inspire others!
Always remember – YOU ARE AWESOME!  Go out and make it a great day!

Decisions! Decisions!

 Every day, all of us have to make decisions - what to wear, where to go, what to do, what to eat, and probably many more decisions.  More often than not, I struggle with decisions.  Some days I go through 2-3 outfits before I make a decision.  I'm often involved in the conversation of "Where do you want to go?" "I don't know, where do you want to go?" I am an "over-thinker," and sometimes, I think that makes it even more difficult to make the decision.  There are times that I wish someone else would just make decisions for me! I just got back from vacation, and I had a very difficult time making decisions - food decisions.  A few years ago, my boyfriend and I went on vacation, and we were both on diets.  We went to this famous restaurant, and didn't want to cheat, so we didn't eat anything that we "shouldn't" eat.  That was over four years ago, and we still talk about how we will never do that again.  It bothere...

Doubt Can Kill Your Dreams

Doubt kills more dreams that failure ever will.  All of us have dreams (or goals, if you want to look at them that way.)  As an example, we want to lose weight.  When you decided that you wanted to do this, did you doubt that you could do it?  Did you think that you could do it, and then have someone else tell you that you wouldn't be able to do it, therefore, making you doubt yourself?  How do you think that this will affect your attempt?  If you have a bad day, do you just throw in the towel, and tell yourself that you knew you couldn't do it? I fall into this category.  I want to run a mile, but I have caught myself doubting that I will ever be able to do it.  I have doubted my ability to do this for many years. I justify the doubt by telling myself that I'm just not a runner.  Well, I want to get past that.  I really want to be able to run a mile.  I know that to accomplish this, I will have to constantly tel...

I'm Just Not Feeling It Today

I'm just not feeling it today.  The alarm clock goes off, and you don't want to get up.  You force yourself to get out of bed, but you just want to crawl back in.  You see yourself in the mirror, bed-head and all, and you think to yourself that it just takes way too much effort to get in the shower, to get dressed, to brush your hair, etc.  You decide it all can wait.  You make your way to the couch, and turn on the TV.   In the back of your mind, you may be thinking that you need to get up and exercise.  Maybe you need to do laundry, or go to the store.  You quickly push those thoughts aside.  The next thing you know, you have binge-watched 5 hours of Netflix, maybe even mindlessly eating.  You are suffering from a serious lack of motivation. Have this ever been you?  I'm guilty.  I've had days like this where my fitness tracker didn't track over 500 steps for the whole da...
