How can I use this situation to actually improve and be better in the long run?
Be a visionary and an innovative.
Choose to see the good in the bad.
Choose to see the opportunity in adversity.
Put your emotions aside.
Focus.
Make this work for you and your life.
Choose to evolve and find a solution that helps the world evolve.
Embrace that mentality —> it’s the mindset of a winner.
If you don’t have it, make the choice to have it.
Don’t panic, stay focused, things will work out!

Embrace your past.
It’s brought you to this very moment.
Love your present.
It’s all that truly matters.
Let go of expectations of the future.
Make a decision to accept things as they are.
Do what you can now to feel as much love and joy as possible.

Eliminate “I’m fine” out of your vocabulary with the ones you love.
When we give the same answer to a loved one that we do a stranger,
We are shutting ourselves out from the chance to grow a deeper connection with someone who is genuinely trying to show up for us.
FINE is not a true answer. Dig deep about what you’re feeling. What’s the truth?
Give the people around you the chance to be there.
And allow yourself to let go of any bad feelings…
Feelings don’t last forever.
Shout out to #noramcinerny for her time and energy at Bryn Athyn’s #newchurchlive (aka my second home) about this time last year.
These were some notes from her talk.
So blessed and grateful for her kind words and infectious personality. Check out Nora’s ted talk on grief it’s so worth the watch!

When was the last time you sat in a quiet room by yourself?
When was the last time you were able to quiet your mind?
The world we live in is non-stop, day and night.
Things are so easily available to us nowadays; we want things immediately and done right away.
Doesn’t matter what toll it will take on our bodies or wallet…
If it makes us happy and feel good in the moment, who cares long term right?
This go, go, go mentally is leaving us all frantic, trying to move along with everyone else, or keep up with our own expectations…
Like wooooah, let’s take a step back before another mental breakdown happens forreal.
What can we do?
We can commit to taking time to relax our mind, body and soul daily.
Think of it as your way of organizing your inner files.
The more time you put toward it → the more clear and efficient you will be as a whole.
#normanvincentpeale recommends taking this time each day (ideally multiple times throughout the day if possible) → to sit in silence and fully relax.
Why?
Because this not only helps us make better decisions in the day to day moments…
It also calms our nerves, allows us to see things with more clarity, and strengthens our self-awareness.
It also connects us with Infinite Intelligence: where all our awesome ideas come from!
When we sit in silence…
With the intention to quiet and relax…
Our strength is renewed.
Next time you are feeling overwhelmed, don’t take it as a negative!
It’s the world’s way of telling you that you need to SIT IN SILENCE.
Get alone, even if it’s just a few minutes a day.
Process your emotions.
Breathe.
Write things down if needed.
Carve out the time → your life, inner peace and sanity depend on it!
