  • Todays’ good mood is brought to you by ☕️ Happy Monday my beautiful friends!
  • ‘BE THE ENERGY THAT YOU WANT TO ATTRACT.’ —Unknown⠀ .⠀ I once read an article about habits of happy people, and one of the tips in the post has stuck with me ever since.⠀ .⠀ I can’t remember the details, nor do I remember who to credit for this brilliant idea, but the gist was that this person was in a difficult season at work, and one day realized he was allowing that negativity to snowball into every other area of his life. ⠀ .⠀ So he developed a new rule.⠀ .⠀ RULE: Think of one positive thing that happened during the day, and share that thing with his wife when he got home.⠀ .⠀ I’ve been thinking a lot about this over the past few months. While I think it’s human nature to unload onto our loved ones the moment we see or speak to them after a difficult day, I think many of us (myself included) have a tendency to focus ONLY on sharing the bad parts of their day with their S.O. instead of leading with the good stuff.⠀ .⠀ And what I’m learning is that when you start with something positive - even if it’s just a compliment you received or a meme that made you laugh - you are much less likely to dwell on the negative.⠀ .⠀ Give it try! 🤗
  • ‘WHEN YOU REALLY WANT SOMETHING YOU WILL FIND A WAY. WHEN YOU DON’T REALLY WANT SOMETHING, YOU’LL FIND AN EXCUSE.’ —Rachel Hollis⠀ .⠀ My mom always used to say ‘there’s no such word as can’t’ when I was growing up, and while it reallllllllllly annoyed me at the time, I now appreciate how profound a lesson she was trying to teach me.⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ The words ‘I can’t’ typically mean ‘I won’t’, or ‘I don’t know how to’, or ‘that’s too hard for me’, or ‘I’m too scared.’⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ Last year I read a variation of this lesson that I decided to adopt for my own daughter: ⠀ .⠀ There’s no such thing as ‘I can’t’, only ‘I can’t…YET.’ ⠀ .⠀ 💪🏻
  • 'WAKE UP AND SMELL THE ROUTINE'. --Unknown⠀⠀ .⠀ Last week was NOT my week, but that was then and this is now and I'm excited to put it behind me and crush the hell out of the next 4 days!⠀ .⠀ But first, coffee… ☕️⠀ .⠀ Happy Tuesday my beautiful friends!
  • ‘CHOOSE STRETCHING OVER STRESSING.’ —Unknown⠀ .⠀ Before my injury, I never (ever) stretched, and these days it feels like stretching is the ONLY thing I do, lol. ⠀ .⠀ I’ve become one of those weird foam-rolling runners who spends 15+ minutes doing glute bridges, hip abductions, and eccentric calf raises pre-run, and I’ve started to love my @hyperice #hypervolt more than life itself.⠀ .⠀ I don’t even know who I am these days… 😩
