Don’t let the days pass you by.

We have all heard that the days are long but the year are short. We want to do more than just survive. We want to be growing and building to something.

Where do you want to be when you are 80?
What are you doing now to help get you there?

Time is always ticking and you want to be stewarding it well.

If you don’t know the answers to those two questions - I can help!

I am coaching women on how to maximize their current days to live intentionally!

I’ll be sharing more info in the coming weeks but for now, comment below with where you see yourself when your 80!

What gets you out of bed every morning?

Aside from your kids who physically pull you out of bed each day. 😜

For me, I am motivated by seeing others around me succeed.
I love to help others get to that next milestone, find fulfillment and confidence and share knowledge I’ve gained to help grow others around me.

This is why I started sharing our lives on the internet. I know there are many moms out there who are drowning in the day to day. To the point where they are missing the big picture.

I’ve been there too.

So tell me - what’s your why?

I don’t know about you guys but I need to remind

I don’t know about you guys but I need to remind myself that consistency is more important that quality.

I’m not going to be the best wife or mom all the time - but showing up and trying every day is way better than waiting to show up until I’m perfect at it.
This goes with faith as well. Being consistent in showing up to learn more about God daily is going to benefit me more than waiting until I understand everything the Bible says.

What hits you most from this weeks Monday motivation?

Just say “Hi” - making friends made simple. It is hard. And you aren’t the only one who feels this way.

We lack confidence that people will want to be our friend. We worry that we will be annoying (“sorry I annoyed you with my friendship” - Andy Bernard”).

But know, the person that you are silently sitting next to at the park, they feel awkward and lonely too. They want to be accepted as much as you do.

My dms blow up any time I mention friendship. The door is wide open for us to let others know that we see them.

I challenge you this week to let someone know that you see them.

Ideas:
- say hi
- compliment their hair/clothing
- comment on the weather

You probably won’t come away as best friends, but your act of seeing them is going to go a long way.
I promise that.

There is no better way to grow in gratitude than to serve others.

Having an outward look keeps your small problems feeling small and establishes hope and support for your big problems.

Thankful that we had an opportunity to serve @houstonwelcomesrefugees this week alongside our kids. It opened up some good conversations with our 4 year old about why some people aren’t safe in their home countries and how scary that can be.

Grateful for organizations who make a difference in welcoming families to our city.

Sharing more about this organization in my stories!

Sunday Service: Righteous Anger and Calling Out Others. Talking through the difference between righteous anger and living in a constant state of anger.

Friday evenings are exhausting. By the end of the week we have all been beat up, tried to overdo it and probably not spent as much time restoring ourselves through time with God as we would like.

At our house that is usually a recipe for short tempers and frustrations.

I’m working on taking more pauses during the week so that went Friday evening rolls around, I can enjoy time with my family that is so fleeting.

What are your Friday night traditions?
