It’s already Spring y’all. The days are getting longer, and the weather is warming up. But, more than anything, I am excited because I am anticipating so much newness this Spring season.
With that in mind, I am working on having the right attitude and frame of mind to take on new adventures and challenges.
Evolving, Not Stagnant
Our lives are always naturally evolving in some sense if we are attentive to the opportunities that come our way. And consistently developing is a good thing. We should ever be changing and growing in some way regularly.
Unfortunately, when I get into a routine after I hit a major goal, it’s so easy for me to settle in and get comfortable enjoying the fruits of my labor.
But, what meant freedom and success for me three years ago is no longer relevant today. My life is entirely different from the way it looked when I was first devastated by separation and divorce. My needs and wants are like night and day from that time in my life. What I needed to be financially, emotionally, and socially free back then has been accomplished. It’s time for much MORE.
A Mental Shift
Lately, I realize I am settling and thinking way too small.
In fact, thinking small annoys me to no end! I don’t always realize right away that I am actually talking myself out of going to the next level. So, I have decided to intentionally catch negative thoughts and fearful impressions, keeping me second-guessing myself. I can no longer settle where I am in this beautiful place in my life. It’s time for more, much more.
I am learning to dream and plan far enough ahead in life to be ready to pounce on the next goal without delay.
Spring Readiness
I have been purging my wardrobe and sprucing up my home, and that refreshes me. Florals and lightweight outfits are freeing and shifting my attitude to expect greatness. I am preparing for greatness, surrounding myself with other amazing people who won’t settle. It’s important that I intentionally open my mouth, declaring God’s greatness in me. My aim is to make realistic goals and effective plans of action to avoid being stagnant. And I won’t be held back with small thinking and a poor attitude.
