Sunday Thought

I work with a group that participates in a leadership group with the community.  On Friday, we toured one of our local cities, and I had the privilege of getting to know one lady a little bit more.

We all self doubt.  You all know that I do on a daily basis.  We had a couple of conversations on Friday that confirmed that even in the leadership group, she self doubted.  She felt as though she couldn’t, or shouldn’t lead.  She has even gone to her supervisors and asked what she needed to do to improve her leadership skills and they told her to self evaluate.

She is so encouraging, works 3 (three!) jobs, and has a family of 6 (yes, six!!).  She is constantly posting on Facebook encouraging, and motivating things, yet she feels like she shouldn’t be part of the program.

So, again, I felt as though I needed to talk about self affirmations.  What we say out loud to ourselves is huge! HUGE!  We believe what we say to others…if it is always negative, it will be negative.  Watch what you say to others.  Be sure to be encouraging, especially to yourself.

Blessings!

Procrastination is the thief of time.

This is posted at the Old School House in Fort Walton Beach that I toured yesterday.

I thought it was a good reminder for today.

Cruise – Key West

David and I just returned from a wonderful week cruise, and day one was at  Key West.  I so loved being there again.  David and I had a do over so to speak as the last time we were there Stephen was very sick (both ends sick), and we were not able to do anything that day.

So we were able to go to the Southern Most point.We also ate at the Hard Rock Cafe.We had a ball.  We walked a lot, and got a lot of sun.

Free Seats – Baseball

LSU Baseball…again…my weekend with Carmen after my 5k Lucky Leprechaun that morning, drove for 5 hours, then dinner. Yes, we had to eat. Then we went to see if there were any seats left at the game.  Well, the rain helped for the empty seats, and the score did as well.  We got in for free, and seats at 3rd base.  Free seats weren’t bad at all.  We even made it on National TV – ESPN – David recorded it on his phone.  I am not sure why I am so wiggly…but Carmen and I make the same facial expressions. Yes she is mine, and I can’t deny it with this video!

We had a great time.  Home, bed, and then up for the Founder’s Day events on Saturday.  But first, selfies.Love her.

Blessings.
