Allow this to set the tone for your day.

“Aerodynamically the bumblebee shouldn’t be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn’t know that, so it goes on flying anyway.” -Mary Kay Ash

Take a moment today & check in with yourself by reflecting on the following questions.

1. Are you allowing a limiting belief to inhibit you from doing something you REALLY want to do? If yes, WHY?

2. Are your voices of self-doubt preventing you from taking risks and following your heart?

3. What will it take for you to push through the fear, silence your nasty inner critic & prove yourself wrong?

4. How does it serve you to stay rooted in a negative belief about yourself?

5. What will it take for you to REALLY believe in the possibilities of what you can achieve?

The only thing holding you back is what you choose to believe.
Now go on…..FLY!

I have a new cell phone. I didn’t want a new cell phone; I was perfectly happy with my 2020 cell phone, but it wasn’t happy with me. Its connector charging port was ailing. Failing, actually, the service tech told me. And besides, it was an old phone, what did I expect? Old? This to a woman who is more than content, read “thrilled,” to wear outdated fashions just because she likes them. And would willingly keep computers way past their supposed “shelf life.” Sigh. OK, fine,

We speak of decluttering our spaces--our homes, garages, offices--but how often do we think of decluttering ourselves? As in letting go of outdated emotions, the guilts, fears, regrets that no longer serve us in any way? After all, isn’t that how you declutter your closet?
