Don’t forget the fun stuff
Do you ever wonder where children get their energy from? It doesn’t matter what time of day it is my kiddies always have bags of energy. Well, except for when we’re on our way back from a family day trip and the car motion has gently rocked them to sleep. Then without fail as soon as we’re back home they spring into life.
You’re Never Alone
There are times when I need space and I want to be left alone. The problem is. When you have kids you’re rarely alone. Having your own space becomes a luxury. Spending time in your own company is precious. I have now come to accept there are moments my kiddies share with me whether I want to or not.
Reviving me
I’d like to introduce you to a very special little girl. Someone who is feisty, fearless and believes anything is possible. If you tell her something cannot be done then she will show you it can. If you tell her she’s unable to do something then she will show you she’s more than capable. If you tell her she’s not good enough then she’ll show you she’s more than good enough.
Does money matter?
I’ve always been money conscious. I guess it comes from my parents. They may have moved to the UK for different reasons and at different times but they were starting again and had nothing. And so, my childhood definitely included learning and understanding the value of money.
When it comes to money, for me, it’s a serious matter. I want to know that I’m in control of the here and now as well as the future. I don’t want to worry about money. It’s true what they say. Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves.
Are you getting the most out of your relationships?
Let’s talk about relationships. We have so many different types of relationships in our lives. Family, friends, partners, children, work etc. Some that build us up. Others that drain us of energy and are hard work. The good ones fill us with love, joy and happiness. The not so good ones bring us down.
I want to fill my life with the relationships that make me happy. Life is too short and time is too precious. So my focus is on the ones that fill my heart with joy.
Changing Things One Step at a Time
I thought taking a break from work and deciding what I really wanted from a career was the one thing I needed to change. It’s only now that I realise that there are more things that I needed to change in my life. The thing is, life is constantly changing. We’re constantly changing. Our needs. Our wants. Our desires. So as far as I can tell we have two simple options. Reach a constant and accept this is life for the next 50 years. Or. Actively look for change and really live.
