I GOT THIS


I GOT THIS

There comes a time, maybe a few times, when you feel you just can't do it. You're not up for the challenge, you haven't got what it takes, you can't "man up" or wear your big girl panties and do it.

It's not uncommon to feel less than qualified to do something, anything that you set your mind to or that which was given to you to do. We all have that "oh crap" moment when people expect something from you and you do not feel up to the task. Sometimes it just makes more sense not to work toward something or tell someone you can do it than failing and falling on your face.

Well, that's not true. Isn't it better to have tried and fail than to not try and never knowing what you are capable of doing. I've had that situation where I thought I am not good enough to do this, I am not qualified and I can't. And you know what, that which I have made myself to believe was what happened. I didn't try anymore, I just believed that I couldn't do it because I wasn't good enough. And you know we take in all these negative thoughts from ourselves and words from others and we make that what we think of ourselves. We fill ourselves with others opinions and we start to believe that that is the truth.

One day I got an e-mail and my first thought wasn't no I can't, it was YES, I can and I will! So here I am many moons later and I am doing it, and I am enjoying every moment of it. Since that day I decided to change the way I see myself. Not to allow others opinion to shape who I am but to start and make something of myself that was worthy of my own admiration. Does that make sense... I am proud of myself. I stood up and I decided to change and it happened and it is still happening every day. Everything is perfect now but it is worth fighting for and working hard to achieve the best.

Never allow others and even your own negative thoughts to shape you. Choose who you want to be and what you want to achieve and make it happen. You can do it. I believe you CAN!!

Till later

WRITERS BLOCK

WRITERS BLOCK So it's been a while since I've blogged anything. I blame my overactive mind and imagination that has so many things running at one time that it all gets too much in the moment I feel the need to sit in front of my computer and write a few coherent sentences it all disappear.  Now all I feel is frustration and the need to throw something across the room. To take my writers block out on something else than myself at this moment. Most of the time I have these amazing ideas of what to write about, you know stuff that really matters but for the last few weeks there has been a vast space of nothingness in my mind when I open my blog to write. The irony is when I get into bed at night I have all these things that keeps me awake and I'm sure there's a lot of people with great ideas at night but you see the moment I start to work on them in my mind I fall asleep. So the next morning when I wake up the nothingness of my creativity has expanded...

LOVE YOURSELF

LOVE YOURSELF So I have been struggling with this topic for a while now. How to love yourself when there's so many "things" that's telling you how wrong you are. I was over weight for a very long time. There are people that has no problem with that, then there's the ones who completely ruin you. In those times it was the hardest to love myself. Why haven't people figured out how harsh their words can be and how much damage they can do. I have learned that nobody's opinion matters but my own! If I feel beautiful in a mini skirt with my big thighs or big ankles, then to hell with everyone. I love wearing dresses and I do not want to wear a dress that hangs on my ankles and covers me like a table cloth. Two reasons, it's too hot sometimes and I love my Owl Tattoo on my calve. I like to show off what I feel is beautiful. I used to be afraid to wear the clothes I love because of what people might say or maybe I didn't look like another w

HOLDING OUT HOPE Everyone always tells you to just keep believing. Hold out hope and be strong. Well in the face of what you're going through that isn't always that easy.  I've looked up the meaning of hope.  " a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen";  These past couple of weeks for me has been hard. I've gone through a few things and I've realized there is only one person always there, me. It's hard to hope for something when you can't see the end picture. When you don't know how the story will end.  How do you keep that expectation alive in the face of the circumstances around you. When you can't see a way out or a way through. You want to trust and believe but it's hard when it seems impossible. How do you trust through the pain of past experiences? I've read recently that pain is real but so is hope. Hope is being optimistic of what is to come. Or what you hope is to come i
