Admit it. You do it, too.
Sometimes we get so focused on the things that we need to work on that we forget to stop and appreciate the things we've already done and what we've got.
Me?
I've got a bum. Yup. I've not been the biggest fan of this bum and, in fact, started to focus on trying to trim that little lady down. But, the street I work on and walk up and down multiple times a day lends itself to forgetting anyone else is on the other side of those windows and checking yourself out in the reflection. (Seriously - ask my friends who work inside a media hub on the corner, and they'll have a few goodies to share about things people do in those windows' reflections, including me doing the running man while they're in meetings.)
Today, while strutting past those windows, I noticed my bum. And I also noticed that it's not too bad of a bum.
I'm doin' alright. You're doin' alright. And if you aren't doing' alright, then do a little something about it. Take .3 seconds and remind yourself about the things you DO like about you. There's a lot more good than we take the time to remember. Y'all best appreciate.
I love that attitude. But I must warn you that I was feeling pretty fine Monday, while also knowing that something ridiculous was going to happen to my face shortly thereafter. Indeed, Tuesday I woke up with a big crazy sty in my eyelid. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteGood Idea! I will have to think about that. Today that may have helped me when I got upset with a person.
ReplyDeletewe always focus on what we don't have and forget to appreciate the little things we love and have.This year one of my resolutions is to appreciate the little things :)

Staying positive can be so difficult sometimes but you're very right. It's something we have to work on for our own sanity. I didn't work out yesterday but I'm not going to beat myself up over it. I'm going to remind myself of all the other work outs I did leading up to that one day. Today is another day.

Most doctors, so-called diet gurus and fitness experts are either lying to you, or just plain don't know what they're really talking about! I prefer ....

I know how you feel. I'm always forgetting where I've been and what I've done while I'm in pursuit of everything else I need to do. Time to step back and take a breath.
