Ok, finally loving life, family. This one is straight from experience. In fact, I can speak on this from this week alone. This week, and depending on how long you’ve been following my writing, I would go as far as to say this season has been very trying. I’ve had to pull out all of my resources to stay on top of not only my mental health but also my personal motivation in everything.
The first thing I did to help with this was get back into my creative self-expression, and this has helped me tremendously. I revamped my jewelry line, and revived my websites and added a YouTube channel to it. All of these activities keep me sane. They cheer me on to keep going and to never give up. They make me feel good and bring positivity and joy into my life. They balance out all the negative stuff happening around me, so I have a sense of peace as I watch things play out. They keep me focused on something positive as I cheer myself on to continue moving forward.
I know that what I create helps a lot of people, but honestly, I created all of this to help myself—to push me through difficult situations. Anything I write, post, or create is done through the eyes of someone who needs it first and is sharing it in case there’s someone out there like me, struggling with the same things and needing a push too.
Everything I do is in an “AS IS” state. I haven’t arrived at some magnificent goal. When I say, “join me on this journey,” I’m saying that I, too, am trying to love life in the midst of the ups and downs, and this is what I do to get me through it. If you find yourself in a similar situation, maybe what I’m doing will help you too. That was my thinking when I initially started all of this.
I do know this: if you don’t learn to cheer yourself on, life can be disappointing. You have to find something that cheers you on emotionally, mentally, and physically so you can have something positive in your life. For me, it’s creative projects that cheer me on, letting me know there’s more to life that can be enjoyed even amid chaos. Yours might be saying mantras or affirmations, listing the qualities about yourself that you love, or doing things that support those qualities. If you love your legs, for example, you can do leg exercises that support them staying the way you love them. This becomes an activity that you’ll not only love but also look forward to, feeling great doing it.
There are countless ways to cheer yourself on—you just have to find what fits you. Don’t wait for others to do this; do it for yourself because you’re the main person who counts.
Love you guys!
Until next time, beautiful people.
Finally Loving Life
