Words to Inspire

Oprah quote

I used to do regular Words to Inspire post but have gotten away from it. I guess I was feeling like you all see your share of inspirational quotes on Pinterest and Instagram so you don’t need it from me. But what I realized today is that I enjoyed sharing these post with you because it allowed me to share uplifting words and because it’s a way for me to tap into my feelings and what’s going on in my life. So I’ll be bringing back my Words to Inspire post from time to time and hope that the words I share touch your soul as much as they do mine.

This is always a good reminder in life and lately when I’ve felt like things are not happening the way I want them to it’s not because things are not working or that  I’m not trying and giving it my all, it’s most likely because I’m an overachiever  and a perfectionist and I want things to be perfect and happen now.  I recognize that I need to slow down and let things take their course and while I’m doing that I need to enjoy the dance!  #ihopeyoudance

I am a hard worker and according to my mom I’m a workaholic but ever since the beginning of the year I’ve felt like I’ve been spinning my wheels a bit and not using my time in the best way that I can.  As a business owner I know that time is money and that every effort I put out needs to yield results in some way.  I’ve lost my focus a bit and I know that I need to take the time to get it back.  Not only do I need to dedicate TIME for my work but I need to dedicate TIME to me and nourishing my soul.  In the end that really is the best use of my time.  #themostvaluableasset

I know I’m not the only one with a cell phone, iPad, computer addiction.  I’ve gotten to the point that I am constantly on my devices checking-in, not wanting to miss a thing.  I’m letting these devices have control over me and I don’t like that feeling.  As of today I am making a commitment to step away from the computer by 6 pm, to turn off my phone after hours and to let the kiss I give my husband be the first thing I do in the morning and the last thing I do at night.  #thethingsthatmatter

This is a hard one for me and is something I’ve struggled with for most of my adult life.  I don’t like saying NO to people and I always find myself offering up explanations instead of being  content with saying no to the things I don’t have the heart or the spirit to do.    I can’t be all things to all people and I must put myself first. #selflove #NOisnotareflectiononme

And then there’s this quote.  I don’t think it needs any explanation,  just an attitude that allows me to be guided by these words. #faithaboveallelse
