Hoping For A Fresh Start

Since moving to Charleston over 4 months ago things have not gone as planned.  I figured I would have my own place soon after moving.  But here I am 4 months later still staying with friends.

I had hoped to keep up with my blog.  I have repeatedly beat myself up for “slacking” and not keeping up with it.  I  can hear myself saying “You did so well with your blog in Dayton”  But I continue to remind myself that I am not in Dayton anymore.  Things are different here.  I have a different job.  Living in a different situation so I can’t expect the same results as I had in Dayton.

I realize that I need to change my mindset that every day is a fresh start.  If I leave yesterday where it is in the past and wake up each morning with the mindset that today is a new day and a fresh start and if I don’t get around to blogging that there is always tomorrow.

It is so easy for me to keep score of my mistakes and failures.  But what is that really doing for me.  It is keeping me in the past.  Always thinking about the things I screwed up on inste  ad of havivng a blank score board everyday.

It’s funny anytime my girls share about a mistake they have made I have always told them not to beat themselves up and to use it as a life lesson to improve their future.  But I don’t use that same mindset with myselff.  For my life everything is a screwup and failute instead of thinking “I made a mistake and let me use this as a life lesson to improe the future”

It is so easy to inspire someone else in their lives and not use that some insiration in my own life.  They say to make something a habit you have to do it at least 21 times.  I this may take 210 but I am really willing to put in the effort so that everyday will be a fresh start.

To GOD Be The Glory.  Take Care.  Much Love
