Know Your Worth

Positive thinking has played a big part in my life lately. It’s so easy to get caught up in the negatives of day-to-day life, but also so easy to get sucked too far into social media negitatives. Thinking you aren’t good enough, not talented enough, maybe you don’t have the right resources for what you want to be doing, or even the time!  I always want to overachieve what I’m working on and sometimes that’s not how I should think about it. Instead it should be this is the best I am and my plans will work! I’m really not the best at typing these heartfelt blogs (I can admit that one!), but I know how easily it is personally to down on yourself and want to give up on your dreams (cheesy, I know) because you don’t know your worth. I can promise if you keep up with it and work your hardest, you’ll get there! Not only that, but you’ll start knowing your worth. I want to start focusing my Tuesday blogs to more personal lifestyle of everyday life with a mix of support and tips to help get you through those tough days. I know I need them! This past month I told myself “think positive” every single day. The hard part was that between moving, getting settled, all the issues that kept going wrong, and then sicknesses kicking our butts right after.. I literally had the energy to keep my kids alive, fed, and somewhat (in my defense they were battling sicknesses too!) happy. I stopped taking care of myself. My workouts and diet plan (I had already started and then had to stop and then barely ate with being sick) went out the window and I was so hard on myself even though I know if I would have tried to to get a workout in I wouldn’t have been able to breathe! My skincare slacked and now I’m still working on getting that back to where it was. Housework and laundry, you already know how that is! No blogging, wearing makeup, brainstorming new ideas, or planning any future things. It made me get so depressed and negative again. My point in this is yes, sicknesses and life happen. You shouldn’t let it get to you the way I did. It happens, you’ll get through it no matter what projects or things you have going on, but not having a back up plan and having no structure in my work also doesn’t help. Having my blogs posted makes me happy. It shows me progress in the path I want to go, so when I slack I get upset with myself because I know I can do better! I blog because I love blogging. I wear makeup and review makeup because it is something I’m passionate about. I’m working towards future goals because I want that kind of future, doing something I love! I want to share new ways I've stayed focused and planned ahead. I'll get into that in future blogs, but I hope this and any future personal blogs help you get through the tough times, so you too can reach your dreams!
