Every Side Is The Right Side.

How we begin our day sets the tone of the entire day. How we live our day sets the tone for our week. As our week turns into months and months turn into years, years turn into the sum of our lives. So how are you choosing to begin your days? Are you allowing your morning and day to dictate the next step for you or are you deciding where you want your start to lead?

No matter what circumstance, what interaction or interruption..you choose your day, you lead your day and you drive your life. Wake up on the right side of the bed and make the most of each moment from there on out.

Every Side Is The Right Side.

Ready For The Show.

Preparation. It is the very thing that gets us ready for where we are meant to be. There is always something we are working on, always something we are are preparing for. So it is more than rewarding when you are on the brink and you get that place that is the next step. All of your preparation, rehearsal and work is ready to be executed and performed. 

It is a moment of anticipation and excitement. A moment to remember and relish. It is a moment to step on stage and do your thing.

Ready For The Show. 

See What I See.

When we were children, we looked at ourselves as invincible, talented and full of possibilities. As we grow, we tend to adopt outside feedback good or bad as our own. The way we view ourselves and the way we interact with others and others view us is what forms our confidence or lack there of. The mirrored image is also what creates our reality.

It is a beautiful thing when we take perceptions of others and use them to build us up or change our behaviors for the better. By doing that, and truly getting a clearer image of who you are as a person and what makes you talented and amazing you shine with confidence from the inside and out. In turn, when  we also listen to the things about us that others perceive as getting in our way or holding us back from a positive interaction or outcome, it is then that we can truly grow and look in the mirror with an unbiased and always growing image of ourselves.

Listen and look..but not just look. See. Truly match your perspective for the world around you.

See What I See.

If We Never Took That Road.

Experiences. Good, bad, in-between..the way we look back at them all depends on the experiences we had with them. With the good experiences, we think to ourselves, "I wish it was still like that..I wish that I could still do that." We all do it, it is the way that I will always talk about when I was a size 2 like it was an hour ago when it was over a decade ago.

With bad experiences we can look back with relief that our experience is no longer that way or even as a martyr that we can not get over that the experience happened to us. These are the experiences that can either grow us or stifle us based on how we choose to use them.

With the in-between..the experiences that are far too easy to forget or to see the importance in those moments. Within monotony and boredom lies some of the best moments that fly under on the radar if we were to just open our eyes.

Good jobs, bad jobs. Good relationships, bad relationships. Nice people, bad people. Being broke, being loaded. Being amazing, embarrassing yourself. Screwing people over, getting screwed over. All in all, we look back on experiences and no matter what emotion it brings, respect the road that brought you to today. If today is amazing, sucks or is monotonous..respect where you have been and where you are today and where you will go. Look back on your path with reverence and look to today, taking the celebrations and lessons from your past road with you all the way.

If We Never Took That Road.

Hold The Key.

Keys. They have so much power and yet we only seem to notice the doors. At a glance, depending on where you stand and what your perspective is..the door can represent a roadblock, an entry to the unknown. It can also represent security from outside elements and privacy. It is so easy to get involved in the outer elements of the door and lose focus of the most powerful element in the situation, the key.

A key is so small and so insignificant at a glance but it is truly the component that can change the entire situation of what the doors significance means to you. A key can unlock a boundary, a key can create a boundary. It is yours for the choosing. 

Are you looking at a door as an obstacle? Are you hesitating on the next step you want to take in life simply because there is a door? Look beyond, find the keys that you have..try them on for size. Empower yourself to find solution and the key to overcome your roadblocks and hesitations. 

Hold the key. 

Leave Nothing Behind.

Fall. The time of year where a new chapter begins and the world opens up to you with new ideas and experiences to behold. It is my favorite time of the year. Filled with possibilities and new directions and this Fall for many of us will give us permission to do the things that we have only dared to dream and align ourselves with who we know we are and our greatest potential.

This is a time where we can take all of our life as we know it with us as we move in a better direction. What have you been only dreaming about? What have you been stuck on the brink of? Break through, bring all you are and all you have. The time is now to begin your new chapter..I can just feel it.

Leave Nothing Behind.

Basque In Light.

Light. There is always light. Be it shining bright, under the cover of cloud or hidden from view but it is always there. As the sun sets where you stand, it rises on the other side of the world for someone else. 

It is easy to feel as though there are times when light has deserted you and bleakness is in it's place but know with certainty that it is underlying somewhere in your life whether you can detect it or not. Search for it, each and every day. Look for the good, the inspiring, the things that bring about a positive momentum in your daily life. Seek out the light, seek out happiness. It is always there. Be it bright and shining, hidden or feeling just beyond reach.
