Today’s affirmation is: I forgive myself.

As I’m recording this it’s the last few hours on the last day of the year. For many of us, this year has been A LOT. It came with some high highs and some really low lows. And when things go bad, the tendency is to treat yourself badly, too. We talk down to ourselves. We bring up past failures. Sometimes, we can be downright mean. It has to stop. It’s time to forgive…not them, you.

In this episode, I'll share an exercise to help you forgive yourself. Grab a piece of paper and a pen or have your phone handy.

After listening, please rate the episode, leave comments and share.

And if you’d like to show your support or learn from me in other ways, please visit linktr.ee/inspiredmedia1. Until next time, have a great day and an amazing new year.

Sometimes the day does not go as planned. As you get ready for bed, your mind immediately starts to replay all that went wrong that day. Don't let it. This affirmation reminds us every tomorrow is a new chance for something better.

In this podcast episode, I'll share an exercise to help you see the potential in tomorrow.

"God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Hav "God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today.  Have you used one to say 'thank you?'" ~William A. Ward

Gratefulness for what you already have in your life is essential. What are you thankful for today? I am thankful for you and your continued support, grateful for my loved ones and super happy that my oldest @chi_queen_kye loves cooking, so I won't have to  do much in the kitchen today. 😊

Make it an amazing day!

If you find yourself comparing your life to others in a way that's unhealthy, you're probably in the wrong lane.

If you have shiny object syndrome and regularly jump from project to project, this affirmation will help.

And if you micromanage the people you've hired to help you because your way is the only way, learning how to stay in your lane can change that.

In this episode, I run through each of these scenarios and leave you with tips to make it easier to stay focused.

Today's affirmation is: I embrace guilt-free rest. Today's affirmation is: I embrace guilt-free rest.

Do you know how to rest? 

I don’t mean when you stop working on one project in favor of another or forego client work to wash the dishes. I mean true, relaxed body, guilt-free rest.

It’s okay if you don’t. Not many of us entrepreneurs do. 

There’s this pressure to jump right back in no matter what's going on in your personal life. It's a silent fear that if we take time off from school or work or our business we’ll never be able to recover.

We're tired but guilty.

1 in 3 Americans feels bad about taking time for themselves, even though 67 percent desperately want more of it (2019 Kelton Global).

Somewhere along the way we started thinking that leisure time is not time well spent. Let's reframe that.
