Whatever happened today is gone. Everyday is a fresh start. New courage. New strength. New perspective.
It is time to practice saying no. Stay in charge of what fills your time and energy this week. Don’t let the worldly distractions steal your joy, or your faith in your purpose. Be on your guard as to what is most important to you, and remember you always have a choice.

First, be sure you are taking care of yourself so that you are rested, strong, and equipped to handle these situations. When your kids act out, stop taking it so personal. They are kids, and they have a lot of stress on them. Stay calm, honest, and gently work to connect with them, instead of battle with them. It isn’t easy, but we can choose different approaches to encourage, guide, and connect with them.

Regardless of the circumstance, or situation, you have to always remember that you have a choice. Even if you don’t like what you have to do, you can choose a good attitude, and choose how you respond to what is going on. Don’t ever let anyone pressure you, or try to persuade you to choose something that you don’t want. You are responsible for your choices, so make sure it is what you want to choose.

It is easy to get upset or blame others for how they are treating you. But, if you are letting them treat you that way…they think you are ok with it. We have to speak up. Respect yourself. Respect your boundaries. So that others will respect you.

When I began my journey of saying no to things that were not filling my tank with good, I began to weigh every choice with God, my values, and where my energy was needed. This helped so much in saying no to things that were not good for me and my values. Because my decisions were grounded in God, I didn’t feel as guilty, or even that I needed to explain.
