Mama's Daily Dose

It's JULY!

July 2 marks the exact halfway point of the year and great time to look back and evaluate your goal.

Are you on your way to achieving your goal or did it go by the wayside?

Evaluate your goal today or set a new one. A goal that you feel for, that you know WHY you are going after it. We are emotional beings (even more so for moms) we make our decisions based on our emotions. So FEEL your goal and your why behind it.

Listen to EPISODE 261 for the breakdown of how to write your goal with FEELING. And write it down - you are 40% more likely to achieve your goal when you write it down each day. Seriously, it takes maybe 45 seconds.

"Would I like this thought to create my life?" - Louise Hay

In episode 278 we learned 80% of what we say to ourselves is negative. Do you want these negative thoughts to create your life?

Take a moment after thinking something that doesn't serve you and ask yourself, "Would I like this thought to create my life?" Bring awareness to the 95% of thoughts that we continually tell ourselves each day, but don't take much notice to.

If you don't want it to create your life. Then think something you would like to create your life. Your thoughts have power. They create your reality.

You can choose your thoughts when you bring in awareness to them.

95% of what you tell yourself and what you think is repeated day after day.

80% of what you think is negative! It's no wonder we hear people complaining!

Your thoughts become your actions and your actions eventually become your reality and if you have 80% negative thoughts, then a good portion of your reality is going to be negative.

Most of these negative thoughts aren't even yours to begin with! It could have been someone else's thought or belief that you accepted at some point. Then you continued to repeat it to yourself (in that 95%) and so you believed it. Your actions follows and there is your reality.

Talk back to those negative thoughts. They are BS. Create the thoughts that you want to reflect your reality.

What you continually think and tell yourself become your reality. 95% of what we think we continue to repeat to ourselves. This repetition causes us to believe them and take action on them and as Frank Outlaw says eventually becomes our "destiny."

"Watch your thoughts, they become words;
watch your words, they become actions;
watch your actions, they become habits;
watch your habits, they become character;
watch your character, for it becomes your destiny."

— Frank Outlaw

You can think about what you think about. Bring awareness to this 95% of thoughts you keep telling yourself over and over again. What are they? Do you even know?

Make a list today of all the thoughts you tell yourself. ALL of them. What are the themes, what is repeated. Are these the thoughts that you want to become your reality?

There are some not so nice people out there...but the cruelest person to you, is you!

We keep repeating the same things to ourselves day after day. We think the same thoughts! 95% of what we think about each day is repeated. You thought about it yesterday and you will think about it tomorrow too!

What we think about becomes our reality.

Choose kindness. Be kind to yourself. Your kind thoughts will then become your reality.

I am kind to myself!

What are the memories you want to leave for your children, grandchildren and beyond?

June 24th is my dad's birthday. He passed almost 6 years ago and my kids did not get the chance to meet him. But we celebrate his birthday every year by eating cake for breakfast.

He loved eating baked goods and sweets for breakfast. So we put away the healthy breakfast and slice up some cake on his birthday.

My kids light up and think it is so much much!

What memories do you want to leave behind?

PS - Hug your loved ones today. None of us know how long we will be here.

You are a mom 24/7, but that doesn't mean you love being a mom ALL the time.

You know that saying, "Do what you love and you'll never work another day in your life?"
I'm calling BS on that.

You love your role as mom (or whatever it may be) but that doesn't mean you love every, single, little aspect of it,

There are crappy days and there are things you just don't enjoy doing, but that doesn't take away from the overall love of being a mom. It simply means you don't like one thing and I don't think you will find someone that loves every single thing about their role. If you do, let me know!

Do you ever feel you "should" be some type of mom or you "should have" some kind of mom?

If you are holding on to the "Should" mom you aren't allowing yourself to be the awesome mom you are right now.

We all have some kind of idea of the mom we thing we "should" be, but that "should" mom prevents us from being the mom that we are now and we want to be in the future.

Honor and mourn that "should" mom. Write down the mom you feel you "should" be or "should have" been. Take the time to honor her and let her go. Make the space for the mom you are.

Have you made space for what you want?

If there is something you want now or in the future, you need to make space for it now. If you don't have room in your closet for new clothes, where are you going to put them?

Make that space now - clean out the closet, make space in your calendar, make space in your heart...wherever you need to create space for what you want, do it now so you're ready and open when it comes your way.
