Indiana Girl

When I get asked about what living in Indiana again is like...I usually list the things I've missed since being gone for 10 years...Indiana (and any place really) is special to me because of the PEOPLE.

Relationships are always more important than locations. And for that I will never take for granted the time I get to see my loved ones. 

Happy (belated) Birthday Grams! So grateful to gave a wonderful lunch and afternoon with you!! 😍😘😘See you again soon!!!!! #indianagirl

Christmas Cards

Just curious, how early do you all send out your Christmas cards!?!?!?🤷‍♀️📬☃️🎄 ....
Because I'm totes excited...We already received our first Christmas card!!!!!!!!! My inner procrastinator is HIGHLY IMPRESSED with people who finish things early. Well, I'd like to say I got started on my New years resolutions early....does that count!?!?! 😂😁😂 Btw, thanks Chad and Jen!!!!! You'll get ours soon...well probably between Christmas and New years 😂😉😂

We're All Leaders

Changing our life starts with mindset and I already know most people quit before they even begin. Don't let that be you. Become the leader of your life that you WANT to follow. Everyday. 
.
Did you know we are ALL Leaders in life? Because we are ALL leading at least one life in this world. Ourselves. When I realized this then I couldn't blame my past or others anymore for my situation. I took responsibility for my actions(or lack there of) and decided that I would become a leader that I would WANT to follow. Trust me, I'm still growing and learning...and the more I learn, the more I realize I've got a long way to go! But trust me, it feels good finally deciding to be on this journey.
.
What helped me and what might help you is confronting a few areas and taking action without letting fear of failure stop you.
.
For example I would say to myself....
.
"I lead myself into a better relationship with myself and others by listening to at least one audiobook on personal development/growth per month.

"I lead myself into a better career opportunity by connecting with and learning from 2-3 fellow Coaches per week through videos or podcasts.

"I lead myself into a healthy lifestyle by committing to a program and completing each one before moving onto the next one. I also follow my meal plan(80% of the time 😉)
.
.
I recommend you also write down at least one area you would like to improve on and also write down HOW you will get there. And don't just write it down once. I'm talking EVERYDAY. I repeat....Changing our life starts with mindset and I already know most people quit before they ever even begin. Don't let that be you. Become the leader of your life that you WANT to follow. Everyday. Because trust me babe. You're worth it. 😘✌

Ninja-in-Training

I cant believe I survived my first NINJA WARRIOR COURSE!!!!!! 🙊🙈How often do you get out of your comfort zone!?!?! Hopefully frequently. Because, how else do we get better!!?!?? 💁‍♀️Well tonight after my workout I went to a gym where they have a Ninja Warrior course!!!! Funny thing, they had a kids class starting and I was told I could still participate or watch if I wanted to...."ummm heck yes" was my answer 🤣 And surprisingly I was able to hang with these tweens. Literally. There were definitely some things I just couldn't do(yet) but now I know what I need to work on!!!! I was surprised though by how much I COULD do side by side with kids that were 20+ years younger than me!!!!!

Seriously guys.....Age is ONLY a number!!!! But I have to give MAJOR props to the fellow Coaches encouraging me and to the programs and supplements I've used for the past 4 years!! ......So what is it that scares you!? Signing up for Spartan, a marathon, Ninja Warrior, starting an online business...being able to (fill in the blank)?!?!?! ANNNND WHY are you waiting!?!?!? Because you will never FEEL ready. You just have to DO IT!!!!!

In ONE WEEK our next November Virtual Fit Club starts. Let's find a meal plan and program that aligns with YOUR goals!!!! This is NOT a one size fits all...because we are ALL different. Message your Coach TODAY or comment 🙌 and Lets rock this thing called life. TOGETHER!!! 🙌💟🙌 #goaldigger #ninjawarrior #motivatedmonday

Be the Change

What would this world look like if instead of complaining about what others are doing(or not doing) we took that same time and energy to give positivity and love to others??? 🤔🤔🤔#sundaythoughts #bethechangeyouwanttosee

Cheers to...

☕Cheers to fuzzy boots, big sweaters, amazing coffee and prepping for a successful November for my clients & Coaches!!!!🙌 Do you guys take a few hours on Sunday to plan out your week/month also?!?!!?

It feels SOOOO good to mark things off my list. This former/recovering procrastinator is learning the importance to becoming MORE of a do-er rather than just a dreamer!!!!!! Now go prep something, seriously marking at least ONE THING off your list feels SOOOOOOOO GOOOOOD!!!!!!#dreameranddoer #mindsetiseverything #letsdothis

Happy Anniversary to my best friendEd Placencia 😍 I can't believe we have been married 11 years!!!!!! Thanks for making my life better everyday babe.

Better Late Than Never

Better late than never, rigghhhhttttt guys?!?!💁‍♀️💁‍♀️💁‍♀️I've lately felt like there's a window of "motivation"I get somewhere between 11am and 3pm....then if I miss it then it's a STRUUUGGGLLLEEEEE to get my workout in!!!! I know, you think I LOOOVVVEEE to get my sweat on......but in all honesty... I'd rather sit and Netflix or work on my biz!!!
Like seriously I joke about how I'm the lazies...See More

Disappointment

Hey guys! Lets talk about disappointment!!! Super fun word...I know 😂🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ But as you know I'm diving into personal development and today's topic really stood out to me. Probably because I am CONTINUALLY harsh on myself and have disappointed myself over the years. Seriously....I hear my mind go to places like.....
"Why aren't I a good leader?"
"Why am I not where I want to be in my business?"
"Why did this person block me on social media? Is it something I said?"
....and the list goes on....
Writing all this out makes me realize how ridic all that sounds...but seriously y'all. We ALL struggle with dissatisfaction and disappointment. But one thing is FOR SURE IN LIFE.👉👉👉👉👉
Disappointment is inevitable!!! It's because life is NOT perfect. I'm sure you know this by now 😉 But there are really only 2 ways to look at disappointment...

👉A failure that can lead to NEGATIVE behaviors that include blame, anger and resentment......

OR

a Learning opportunity where POSITIVE action will be taken including taking responsibility, acting with love and patience towards yourself and others and coming up with a new strategy to eventually have a better result. 

So the next time you are disappointed take a few deep breaths and ask yourself..."how would my BEST self react to this?" And map out the BEST scenario. And if it CANNOT be "fixed" then move on. There are SO MANY other things in life we have control over. Do NOT be tied up with things we CANNOT change. Especially matters of what OTHER people do. Focus instead on the GOOD you can do NOW. ✌😘✌ #learningandgrowing#personaldevelopment #brendanburchard#melrobbins #lewishowes #brenebrown#deangraziosi #jensincero #darrenhardy
