Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
It is very stressful to try to live up to everyone else's standards for you, to people please, over commit because you're afraid to say No, do things out of guilt rather than free will, hold back your own thoughts and feelings because someone may not like or agree with you.
Just for today try something different. Be your version of you, please yourself, commit only to what you really want to do, speak your thoughts and share your feelings with truth and love.
Just for today - relax and Be You! After all no one can tell you you're doing it wrong because you're the expert on you!
Have a Be True to You Monday!

Self Worth is an Inside Job
Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Many times we look outside of ourselves for our self worth. We feel our value comes from our jobs, what we do for a living, from our partners, family or friends, on how many things we do for them, how happy they seem to be with us after we do those things. Sometimes our self worth comes from being a rescuer, caretaker, provider, people pleaser, from how many things we have or can get, the home we live in, the kind of car we drive, how hard and how many hours we work. We attach self value to how much money we make, how many diplomas or degrees we have, or even how much crisis we can handle.
There are 2 flaws in this "outer worth." One is that whatever we did to get that feeling of self value, or of feeling good about ourselves we will have to continue doing to maintain and keep it. And that is when you have handed over your power, your value to someone or something else.
The second flaw is Self Esteem, Self Worth, Self Value, Self Respect all have one word in common: SELF.
So today decide to take your power back and be in charge of yourSELF.
Affirm:
I practice making my Self Worth an inside job.
Have a turn your SELF inside out Thursday!

Walk your Talk
Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Your actions demonstrate the truth of your words.
So become aware and pay attention to your own words and see if your actions match up with them. If not, ask yourself why. Did you say yes when you meant no? Were you people pleasing? Were you afraid of confrontation and said whatever it took to avoid it? Did you have good inentions but allow fear to stop you?
There's a good reason for the saying "Actions speak louder than words." People hear your words and see your actions. Do you follow through on your talk or are you someone who is a lot of talk and little action? Discover what areas of your life may need to be aligned and matched up.
Sometimes just becoming aware that our words and our actions are not matched up motivate a self change. Don't beat yourself up with your discovery simply use it to make an adjustment that will enhance your personal integrity.
Affirm:
Today I practice self awareness so that I align my walk with my talk.
