Taking It One Day at a Time!
I am all for Welcoming a New Day! I prefer to start the day on a good foot and be in the present moment. However, I am not on the happier side of life every day! Some days I need a little practice to see the positive light and just be.
I have to find the 3 I’s:
- Inspiration
- In the Present Moment
- Intention
Inspiration
What Inspires You On a Daily Basis?
I enjoy a great breakfast and a cup of joe. I love sharing and receiving smiles and laughs! I enjoy when someone does something nice for me. I love to take time out for myself to read and write!
In the Present Moment
How Do You Be In the Present Moment?
I really try to approach each day as if it is a GIFT! A gift that is opened carefully, embraced and celebrated. I prefer to find the calm among the chaos and focus on one task at a time! Otherwise I just feel stressed out and overwhelmed.
Intention
What is Your Mantra on a Daily Basis? What Will You Create Today? Do You Believe That What You Desire Will Come True?
Some people have a favorite quote or poem. Some people create daily affirmations or have an agenda for the day. Some people like to journal and write down thoughts and actions. Some people like to reflect on the day; mindful of, grateful for, appreciate this and that.

Wow – what a big deal it is to realize you are right where you need to be… that’s a big concept. People have a tendency to end up questioning if they are where they should be so realizing you are, is a big deal. Great observation! 🙂

Every day is not going to be great. That’s reality. But we can control how we react.
