Getting Back Into A Routine

After moving on the 12th, I was finally able to start getting back into a normal kind of routine last week. Including, Yoga with Adrienne overlooking my new backyard! Unfortunately, this picture isn't the best. It's been raining for days! But, the view still makes me happy. :)

I can't say my moving process was bad, but it definitely wasn't a smooth and easy one. For the first time, I learned what it means to have to rely on other people to get things done for you. I don't like it at all. LOL! But, we all need to rely on others from time to time. And, unfortunately, we can't control those people's actions.

Looking back, I would have to say that I could have been more organized, and made more of an effort in certain areas. So, I'm learning from my mistakes, and keeping my forward momentum. As I've been telling some of my co-workers lately... I've been learning lots of life lessons! Unfortunately, our life lessons don't always go in a nice upward slopping line. Sometimes we move sideways and backwards, as well as forwards.

No matter what you have on your plate these days, don't get discouraged. There is a master plan. Keep doing your part, and it will all work out. :)

Happy April Fools' Day!

I'm not a very creative person, and have never come up with something truly funny to do to my friends, family, or any roommates I've had over the years. Maybe one day I'll be able to put some of the ideas below to good use. Until then... these are just amusing.

Embrace Being Uncomfortable

We’ve all heard it before, “ Life isn’t always comfortable.” Even if the change is a positive one, like eating healthier… it’s still not comfortable. I’m in the process of buying my first home, and while I’m so happy and excited, I’m also really nervous and scared. I would like to think I’m ready for the additional challenges and responsibilities of owning my own home. But, what if I’m not? Big life changes can be really nerve-racking! But, I’m finding familiarity with being uncomfortable. And, I actually take that to be a good thing. If we get too comfortable, there is no growth, and if there is no growth, then we are just slowly dying. So, this week, embrace being a little uncomfortable. It’s how you know you’re changing!

There is No Gain Without Struggle

We all struggle with something. In our moments of struggle, it's impossible to think that other people could possibly be feeling the same hurt, frustration, and loneliness we are. Remember you are not alone. Struggling is a part of being human. Without it, we would not appreciate the good things that we have. Today, recognize that without struggle, we are not driven to be better. You are better today, than you were yesterday. Just keep going! Keep taking steps every day to work towards your goals of personal development.
