I saw this a while back and it was like an “AHA” moment for me. Such a powerful visualization if you take the time to think about it.  Once a “plate” is broken, it can NEVER be put back together exactly as it was before. It’s the same with us as humans and how we treat each other. 

I’m sorry can be said, but those two words don’t always have the power to put back together what was broken in a moment of anger or hurt.  It can be hard, but try to think before things are said that can never be taken back completely. It’s true, words are just words, but they CAN and DO cut deeply, whether we mean for them to or not. 

Eventually, I’m sorry may not be enough, especially if the actions aren’t there to back up what “I’m sorry” should mean....CHANGE.  I’m sorry without change, isn’t really I’m sorry is it? 

Just something to think about....
Have often do you allow yourself TIME for you? It Have often do you allow yourself TIME for you?  It’s so important that we always make the time to stop during our day and take care of ourselves.  Whenever you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stressed to the max, take a minute to give to YOU! 

For me, I normally journal my thoughts. It helps me to say what I am feeling in that moment in a healthy and productive way. Honestly, it’s where a lot of my posts come from. 

Always remember to put yourself at the top of your to do list!  If you are drained, you can’t be your best for you or anyone else 😉

Make today a great day, you only get one life!!!

Balance comes in the moments you stand up for the Balance comes in the moments you stand up for the life you truly want by making choices that align with that life.....

Today make time for the things that are going to bring you happiness and get you closer to achieving your GOALS! 

However, never forget to laugh and enjoy your life along the way.....after all, you only get one!
Judgement...... We all do it. We do it to ourselve Judgement......
We all do it. We do it to ourselves, we do it to others, we do it to people we dislike and we even do it to people we love. Have you ever sat down and had a serious talk with yourself to ask WHY?

If so, what answer did you come up with?  Was it a truthful, thought out answer or was it some bullshit answer that you told yourself to feel better about doing it?

If I’m being completely honest with you, I’ve given myself both at one time or another. When I think about it from as early as I can remember, we are taught to judge and compare ourselves and others. 

*Did you see them? They are too fat or too thin. 
*Look at her/him, why would they wear that?
*Why can’t I have that nice car. I bet they didn’t earn it. Their mom or dad probably helped them. 
*Why can’t I look like that?  I bet they had surgery. They didn’t put in the work to get that way. 

If you listen to conversations taking place throughout your day, I guarantee half of them would be people talking about other people. WHY?  Have you ever thought what a waste of time that is?  How does taking even 1 minute out of your 24 hr day to compare yourself or judge another person benefit you in any way?

I can give you the answer, it doesn’t!  As a matter of fact, it does nothing but waste time that could be being used to do something productive to better yourself. 

Trust me, I get it!  It becomes a habit. It’s something you or your friends may do without even thinking, but it’s a habit that needs to be broken. Worry more about you! Stop comparing; stop judging and instead work on yourself each and every day. Do it for you and only you. This life is about becoming who you were meant to be. There is only one YOU in this world, so go be the best version of you that you can be and let everyone else do the same.
There is nothing about a breakup that is easy. Whe There is nothing about a breakup that is easy. Whether it was a good relationship, bad relationship, short or long. It’s painful and sad to go through.  So allow yourself time to heal and work through whatever you may need to in order to move on. 

However, In the end remember that it’s not another person that puts a smile on your face or determines your happiness, it’s you!  They are a part of it, but you and only YOU can create your true happiness within yourself.  Remember you aren’t alone even if it may feel like it now.

This is a hard time of year for many people. Try to think about that when you interacting with others today. Go that extra mile to give a smile or do an act of kindness that could change someone’s day.  Be the good the world so desperately needs!

Sometimes the hardest decision we have to make in Sometimes the hardest decision we have to make in life is trying to decide where our path is leading us to. Often times it seems so clear, while other times it’s as if you are walking through life with a blindfold on unsure of where you’re headed. It’s these times that make life scary, yet it’s also these times that you find your most growth taking place. 

When you are in a place of comfort, life is well......COMFORTABLE! You become content and while that is not a terrible place to be, it can be the place where your dreams go to die. 

However. Just on the other side of contentment is FEAR and fear is where you learn what you’re made of. Your fears are your greatest enemy in all areas of your life, but they don’t have to be. 

* What if I’m not good at it?
* What if I’m too old/young to do this or that?
* What if my relationship doesn’t work out?
WHAT IF....WHAT IF.....WHAT IF?????

Everything you want in this life lives on the other side of fear!  You just have to be willing to take the leap. 

* What if I’m actually great at it?
* What if everything works out perfectly no matter my age?
* What if that person is my forever? 

How will you ever know the answer to all the questions FEAR makes you feel unless you move forward THROUGH  them and figure it out?

Nobody says it will be easy. Hell, it’s more than likely going to be terrifying at times, but in the end you will have lived a life with less regrets, less what if’s and hopefully a much more fulfilled and meaningful life. 

So what will you choose?  To stay comfortable or to find out what’s on the other side of your FEAR?
Well now it feels official! My NASM certification Well now it feels official!  My NASM certification came in the mail!!! 

While 2020 has been one hell of a year, I can honestly say that I am so proud of the things I’ve accomplished during this time. 

I started and finished #75Hard, made a move that got me closer to my children, started painting again, completed my NASM certification after procrastinating for almost 2 years and am in the process of creating a product that I’ve been TALKING about for over 5 years. 

I’m excited to keep pushing forward and see what’s next in my life. What I have realized is that it’s up to me. Life isn’t just going to give me things, I have to go after the things I want full force!! If I want to succeed, if I want my hopes and dreams to come true, I HAVE TO WORK for that!  I don’t deserve anything to be handed to me and honestly, would it mean the same to me if it was? 

When I get to where I want to be in my life, I want to know it’s because I gave it my all!  That I WORKED for that shit!! That I NEVER gave up when times got hard or chose a different path simply because it would have been easier!! 

Are you with me?  Who else is ready to take responsibility for their life and start showing the world what they are capable of?  I believe each and every one of us has greatness in us. It’s time to start being that person, not tomorrow, but TODAY!!!

Happy Thanksgiving Eve Y’all!☺️

If I gave you a math problem like 2+2, I’m prett If I gave you a math problem like 2+2, I’m pretty sure the majority of us could figure out that answer in our head. However, what if I gave you a little something more complicated like 9w − w = 8. Things may get a little more confusing, right. Instead of being able to figure out the second one in your head, this one may take putting some pen to paper to figure out. Even then, the majority of people would still struggle to find the solution. 🤔

Life is a lot like this as well. 

Sometimes finding an answer for what’s going on in our lives requires us to stop and write it down to evaluate it. 

Write down your goals....

Write down what’s troubling you.....

Write down what makes you happy....

Write down things that need to get accomplished......

Write down anything that’s on your mind throughout the day!

Life’s questions aren’t always easy like what’s 2+2. Sometimes life throws us curve balls that need to be evaluated and thought upon for hours, days, weeks or maybe even longer. 

So if your mind is racing and you need to clear your thoughts, try writing it down. You will be surprised by how when you get things on paper and start to work through the solutions, you will start to feel more at ease. 

Whatever that equation is in your life that has you struggling, you can and will figure out the answer. It just takes time and a little effort.

When you start to doubt yourself..... When you lo When you start to doubt yourself.....

When you look at where you are in life and think I’ll never reach my goal.....

When you feel like giving up....

Stop and realize how far you’ve already come!!!

Most people miss out on success in life just because they don’t understand how close they are to the finish line. You only fail at something when YOU decide to quit!

Don’t let today be that day...☺️

This picture was from the climb at #Manitouspringsincline  It was a breathtaking view from the top!  Without making that climb, I would have missed out on that. It’s the same with life. 

Keep taking those steps towards your goals and dreams.

Where does STRENGTH come from? Sometimes it can o Where does STRENGTH come from?  Sometimes it can only be found in your darkest times. The times when you think you’ve got NOTHING left to give. The times when you feel like a slight breeze will be enough to break you for good. And from somewhere deep down in a place you didn’t even know existed, you find it!

It’s when you finally realize that no matter what, you can’t/won’t be broken again. You realize that no matter how hard it is to keep going, you will choose that anyday  over quitting on yourself one more time.  It’s finding the discipline and the courage to get up when getting up is the absolute last thing you want to do.  It’s when you push through the dark times you see headed your way and say, “No matter what I go through, I will come out stronger for it and because of it!” 

Today starts Day 52 into my #75Hard journey. When I started this program I was one person, but 52 days in I’m not that girl anymore. I’ve said goodbye to excuses, goodbye to feeling like I didn’t have it in me to be successful and goodbye to anyone/anything that wasn’t there to help my growth and grow along beside me, together. 

I have found my DISCIPLINE!

I have found my STRENGTH!

I have found the RIGHT MINDSET!

I have wanted to give up more than once. It’s been much harder mentally than I ever could have realized it would be. I’ve pushed myself daily to give my best and you know what?  It feels better than I ever could have imagined it would!

If you are lacking purpose. If you are lacking drive. If you need that extra something to PUSH you forward, this is it. I’m only 23 days from the finish line, but believe me when I say, “I’m only just getting started!” #livehard #75hard #andyfrisella #maxout #canthurtme #takingsouls @andyfrisella #100to0 #motivationalspeech #motivationalspeeches

I have to be honest, during my 17 years of being with my ex, I probably only did dishes a handful of times. We had an arrangement that I would cook and he would clean the dishes.

Sports tourism has been around for ages, but it has recently started to gain even more popularity with transportation between states and even countries becoming cheaper, faster, and more convenient.

It’s important to prioritize your sleep, making sure that you get at least seven hours per night… Read More
