Creating Goals

Goals are things that we decide we want to go for obtain become even it’s a chain we climb to reach our full potential. Or at least what we believe is our full potentially at this time as we don’t know that goals are tweakable yes tweakable one moment you doing fine and then you realize that there is more to be had to be conquered and you tweak your goals to rich higher heights nice! And in Recovery you must have goals so how about jotting down a few tonight and sharing them with me I am a Nationally Certifies Recovery Coach and maybe just maybe I can help you define those goals! And then plan how to make it happen now remember I am a coach it’s not for me to tell you what to achieve but to walk with you help and encourage you along the rod to success Recovery Happens! #Hit me up #Goals

If you won’t do it for me do it for yourself

Ever hope the best for someone other than yourself? I mean it’s not a bad practice. 👀 Trying to find people who care is not always easy; so when you find yourself genuinely caring about someone it’s okay to suggest key word! Something that may benefit them in life, recovery, what ever the issue is. Sometimes we all need a gentle nudge in the right or onto a better path amen? Even if you find yourself saying “Don’t do it for me do it for yourself “. And it doesn’t has to necessarily be a child it can simply be someone you care enough about to give them a little nudge while playing a supportive role. And they will be glad to know someone cares!

Be courageous

“ Just make it happen! Step out on faith and be courageous. Believe in yourself even if no one else does; it’s okay to be your own fan. Now I don’t mean become self – centered and obnoxious but love yourself, embrace your ideas, think well of your efforts to do good or do a thing better even to do a thing different! After all you have a right to be yourself or try something new go ahead be courageous and make it happen. Today is not to late if you get started now maybe you won’t finish but get started and be encouraged! Like King David said in the Bible “Encourage yourself”. So go make something happen #Recovery Happens!

Chameleon Season

It’s chillier out today than normal but it’s a part of the Fall Season; or as I call it Chameleon Season. I am actually excited as I see the trees are turning beautiful colors of orange , red , and yellow. You see pumpkins in all the stores and my favorite pumpkin pie yet it’s chilly brrr Fall is in full effect it won’t be long before old man Winter settle in for a few months. But I encourage you to get out there breathe the crisp fresh air and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Bundle up if you must and remember layers are great for this time of year it’s like being a chameleon. You can change your appearance to fit in ya know. In Chameleon Season you can do that put on or take off a hat, add a scarf to keep the neck warm nothing heavy or shoot if it gets to warm take it off or just thrown it over your shoulder. Be sure to carry bag of some sort a purse or back pack or satchel for you may need to put your jacket in it or take it out and put it on. Chameleon Sean breezy but cool you get to show off all of your personalities only in clothing lol. It’s like being a walking moving fashion show. And the best part there is no right or wrong way it’s whatever works for you the individual so hey have fun with it make it your own best self and be encouraged as you go out this day Stay Gold you can do it! #Recovery Happens!

Alright already

Jeesh ! Listen I do not profess to be perfect and I know I not where I can be but come on I am better than I was! Facts if you knew my story and how far I have come already you wouldn’t be looking at me like “ Who she think she is?” Listen I do not have to look like what I been through!!! Alright Alrighty give me a break and get to know me before you make a judgement call on me. Really is it alright with you if I wake up feeling good about myself and decide to dress nice ? Don’t answer that because I will give you the answer YES emphatically YES; it is alright for me to feel good about myself and look good Jesh … Some people need to get a life and stop worrying about mine. Listen I don’t know who out there needs to hear this but “ You are somebody and it’s okay to act like it”. Put your crown on and walk with your head held high; you deserve it #Recovery Happens!

Politicking in a concrete jungle

Policticing a way of promoting my ones self. Correct! All I want to do is go for a daily walk, however it seems more like the baby kissing handing out suckers bumper stickers “Compliments” really it’s actually fun all except for the concrete jungle part where you Have to dash across highways and run for the grassy areas to keep from getting hit by a car or truck you know the lions tigers and bears of the concrete jungle. Every now and then someone will call your name and you wave and smile or a child says hello and you stoop to show them love or a dog chases you with his tail wagging because it wants to play. All of this goes on in between the dodging the wild animals on the highways and cross roads even concrete sidewalks while out politicking in the concrete jungle. Never knew that simply going for a walk every day in your neighborhood could turn into a political career. But like all politicians you better be careful what you say who you say it to and what you are seen doing. It’s been very interesting at best but I would not give up my walks in the concrete jungle “Politicking that is” better be spry though ! #Recovery Happens!

Keep it moving campaign

Ok I got off to a slow start today but I must keep it moving don’t want to become stagnant, dull or stale. It’s beautiful outside I am going for a walk on the wild side that should proof exciting considering where I live heavy traffic, loud music, fire engines oh my! But I get a chance to see the beautiful trees, animals and even come across some pretty interesting people. It’s like the movie cheers “Everybody knows my name” ha ha… So it’s not a get away but rather a community day if you will. I get to interact with the neighbors play with the children, pet the dogs smile at the cats sort of like campaigning for what I don’t know but it keeps me moving and one has to keep it moving. Also makes for some great exercise so enjoy your day and remember # Recovery Happens!

Attitude of Gratitude

Today I am so grateful to be alive and well even with all of my idiosyncrasies, I am grateful. Another opportunity to get something right or even done today that maybe I did not accomplish or get correct yesterday. There are times when we do our very best and it doesn’t seem to make a difference and then there are times when we just do you know a little something and it causes a big ripple effect in the waters of life. Either way there is always room for improvement amen! So today I will take every breath, every step every action I perform today with gratefulness yes an attitude of gratitude that yes “I am in this world to make a difference” and “yes I do matter to myself and others” and so I smile deep down inside 😀 #Recovery Happens!

Reverb

It’s funny how we think we have arrived you know have it all together or at least have come to believe that we got a handle on this thing called life; and then “boom!”oops there it is we missed a step and now we have to back to where we missed a step at and start over. Not to the beginning just where we missed a step. Funny until we get that step right we cannot go any further. It’s like running into a brick wall. But you don’t have to quit just go back to that step hit the reverb button and pick up and go forth from there. And give yourself a little credit after all you have come this far amen! # Recovery Happens!!!

Enough is enough

I try to be the best person that I can be and help everyone be there best person sometimes to the time of shelling out money but as of today enough is enough! I still want everyone to be there best self and I am certainly going to be mine but no More handouts no more late night calls where people dump all of there stuff on me and hang up feeling better and I am left feeling concerned and like I must do something to help this person and they have moved on. Today I walk away and from my emotions and toxic people who really don’t want help they just want to vent. Recovery begins with helping yourself first so forgive me if I take care of me 1st! Really enough is enough I am going on a binge of self care and if it means some others has to fend for themselves without me so be it! # Recovery Happens and it begins with ME 1st!!!
