People look at me and think I have the perfect life. On the outside, I appear fit, healthy, strong, determined, disciplined, in-the-know, resourceful, communicative, influential, and married to an awesome man who supports me and mother of two beautiful children. On the inside I have my days just like all of you do. I get tired. I feel fat and out of shape. I feel run down and achy in by body. I get frustrated with husband and act like a b*tch. I get irritated with my children’s behavior and yell when I shouldn't. I get annoyed with my mother and hang up on her. I am tired of all the demands upon me. I wish my life could be easier and I act like a brat. It’s a rat race out there. Millions of us together on this crazy planet trying to live the dream. Sometimes I feel like it’s all I can do to keep my head above water. The emails, text messages, family commitments, laundry, dishes, meal preparation, bath time and travel….. Geez. If you looked at my schedule it may give you an anxiety attack. I do not have it easy. There are days I feel like throwing in the towel. I get stuck in traffic. My husband and I fight. My kids act like brats. They get a cold. I lose a deal I’ve been working on for months. The mail comes and it’s all bills. But you know what? That’s the reality of this movie we’re in called “LIFE”. You put in the time. You lay yourself down on the line. You work hard. You strive to be the very best version of yourself you can be. And if doesn’t work out the way your trailer was originally shot, re-shoot it. You have a delete button. You are allowed to edit the film. I may not have the “perfect” life. But I’ll tell you one thing. I love my life. I have picked my life. My life works. And if I have a bad hair day, my father-in-law needs a pacemaker, my dog passes away, my father gets diagnosed with diverticulitis, my daughter loses her soccer game, our family budget for the month is not ideal, I look outside and give gratitude for all of the wonder before my eyes. I pick myself up and give thanks for all of my blessings.   What kind of person are you? Do you wake up enthusiastic about what appears before you?  Or is your viewpoint pessimistic? Do you struggle with not having what you want? Are you beating down others in your life? Or worse - youself? Do you ever feel at times like you hate the body you've been given, the job or relationship you're in or the clothes you're wearing? Don’t be that person. You have a choice. Don’t like it? Fix it. You have the power to re-write the script. Are you ready to get started with enthusiasm and a smile on that gorgeous face of yours? There is no such thing as 'perfection' or the 'perfect life.' Happiness and contentment are not something you can search for or buy in a store. Contentment is a state of being. Happiness begins from what's inside of YOU. You are worthy.  You are good enough.  You are alive.  You deserve to be happy. Are you ready to manifest? Feel good about yourself? Make your dreams become a reality? Let’s get started. I have given you several tips on how you can turn a day that seems like it sucks into a day that can actually rock your world. I'd love to hear from you how you often turn your grey skys to blue.
