The house is still and quiet. The dogs just came in from a full day of playing next door. They come home around the same time each day. I appreciate how they know they’ve had enough for one day.
Watch and learn from the doggos.
Yesterday, I found myself physically tired.
This weekend I’m going to take care of me. This month I’ve been giving away more of myself than usual, but cannot pour from an empty cup.
Yesterday, my daughter noticed I was being quiet and she knew. Mom is tapped out for a bit.
I changed my theme for this site and forgot about it. When I typed in the address to come here and write, I didn’t recognize the site as mine, but thought, ‘Wow. That’s so pretty.’ 🙂
That is what we call dog tired.
Self-care weekend in full pursuit my lovelies. Looking at my dogs in this moment, I see rest.
I have an old pair of jeans full of holes. I wear them on Sunday and call them my holy jeans. 🙂
My favorite thing to do on Sunday mornings is hop in my truck, roll the windows down, and take a drive. The air coming through the windows feels good this time of year. I heard this song during my drive this morning and want to share.
Keep writing and planting seeds my darlins.
God can use what’s published here on WordPress to reach exactly who needs to hear it. Those words can change their life and yes lovely, even save it.
We lift each other up, and love on one another with comments. Andy here recently nominated me for the Sunshine Blogger award. This is my way of saying thank you. To introduce him to you by sharing his work to my WordPress family.
I love what Andy says about the comparison game. “The only way to win… is not to play.” Thank you Andy for the nomination, and sharing your wisdom. xx
They say a dream will never leave you, unlike an ‘idea’ we soon forget. You will have ideas toward your dream. Stepping stones. Jot them down.
That dream that God placed in my heart…It’s still there. When I need encouragement toward my dream, I pull it up in my mind and see it instantly and clearly, although God showed it to me years ago.
It’s always the exact same, like watching a rerun.
I am my own worst enemy for my dream. I could quit it at any given time.
Go Back to the Beginning
“If you’re not willing to begin at the beginning, you’ll never end up at the ending.”~Christine Caine
The end of August, I stepped off the beaten path and changed the name of this Blog, but a week ago, I changed it back. I didn’t think up the name Letitgocoach. It was the only name available on WordPress with the words, ‘let it go’. God knows what He’s doing, even when we don’t.
Someone in my life at the time laughed at that name. He thought it was absurd. Let them laugh.
They may look at you like you’re a nut, but to an Oak tree, you’re everything.
Hold Onto the Dream
Now that you are daring to dream, there is something else you need to encompass.
BELIEVE.
Sounds simple right? It is, but you are going to go through tests. Pass those tests. Just get through them to the very best of your ability. Every test will make you stronger, better and quicker for the next one.
Dreamers can live in a lonely world.
Listen to motivational speakers. Read uplifting books, and Blogs. Look at people who have already achieved a similar dream, and learn from them.
Keep people in your life who love you, motivate you, encourage you, inspire you, enhance you, and make you happy.
I continually let people walk out of my life.
Let Go of the Plan
I would venture to guess no football team won the Super Bowl their first year of playing. It takes years of dedication. The same with Olympic Gold Medalists. They have that dream at a young age.
How long have you had your dream?
Maybe it’s not happening as quickly as you planned, but continue laying your hand to it. Use your gift, let go of those pesky expectations, and believe.
Success is when our preparation, and God’s timing meet on the journey.
Over the years, God has given me success. At some point in the journey I’d always ask, “What is keeping me from everything you have for me?”
