There Are No Mistakes!

Often times when things don't go the way we planned, we are quick to say it was a mistake! The definition of mistake is an action or judgment that is misguided or wrong according to Webster. Well I'm here to tell you since no one else has...it was a choice that you made. Yes...I know this is some epic shit coming to the surface!

I, too, am guilty of saying I didn't mean to do that...it was a mistake. Then I realized that I did mean to do it. I made a choice for such action to transpire. Many will argue my point and that's ok because I had to get here too. I didn't just arrive at this valuable information. So let me just break it down a little. For instance, if you drink and drive then you happen to cause an accident. It was NOT A MISTAKE. You chose to drink...you chose to drive which in turn caused the accident. That's about as elementary as I can make this.

Fast forwarding to an almost relationship I could have stumbled into after being separated/divorced. Dodge that bullet with a FULL ARMOUR ON....sorry digressed. Anyway,  now that things didn't work out the way the other person thought it would've, you know without me but with someone else, it was a mistake. Nahhh...it wasn't. It was a choice and you chose to work on what was and not what could've been. Congratulations!

I wasn't mad..bitter or upset. Go do you! You asked and I gave. I would never stop anyone from being happy. Please believe that if you think that your life would be happier without me, by all means....LET ME GO! This is for any relationship, friendship, situationship, etc. Happiness is not in another person...it's within you. We are the keepers of our happiness. Don't ever allow someone else to determine what makes you happy because it will fail every time!

The quote attached to this post hit home for me and it was a nice reminder of exactly what I'm saying. With that said...stop making "mistakes" and allow yourself to make choices that help you grow vs stunt your growth.

The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Have you ever wondered what your gift is? The one that you were born with that no one else has because it was special just for you? Lots of people have the gift of singing but the special thing about it is no one person will ever sound the same because their gift was not given to anyone else. Lots of people know how to dance, cook, are athletic, photographers etc. The reason why they are good at what they do is because they have a gift that keeps on giving no matter what. There's a saying that "music soothes the savage beast". If you ever watched Beauty and the Beast you know what I'm talking about.

I can sing a little bit, I write and I'm a good listener. Those are some of my gifts. The gift I admire the most is the fact that I'm a giver. That can also come back to bite you too because people will take advantage of that. If I see someone struggling and even if I don't have it, I'll give what I have because I know that I'll be blessed in the end. I have given to people in need only to find out they not only had the money for whatever, but they had extra that they spent on luxuries. At first I was heated. Then I remembered that I'll be blessed and note to self...it won't happen again.

Thinking about your gifts that you were born with can sometimes be overwhelming but it doesn't have to be. Work your gifts within the realm of the power you have. Everything has a time and place. The gift that keeps on giving is the one that you continually use to help others. It may be singing, cooking, writing, artistry etc. Whatever it is..just know that gift was especially assigned to you. Be protective of it and use it wisely. This is the season of giving!

What is your gift that keeps on giving? How are you using it to help others and yourself? Remember that YOU'RE UNIQUE and your gift was handpicked for you at birth!

Just Reflect

I asked several times for the universe to guide me on this week's blog. Each time the word "nothing" was repeated. Then those words were followed by "just reflect". So this week's blog is about nothing specific yet just reflect. I've been doing some more soul searching and reflecting on my future. Finances, credit worthiness, debt elimination and not reduction. I asked for debt reduction, which I'm being granted often then this epiphany happened...or reflection...I need to ask for debt elimination! My debt is reduced every time I pay off a credit card or whatever I have in terms of credit. Now I need to be done with credit period! If I don't have the money...I'm not getting it! The reality is in the world today we need some form of credit in order to determine our credit worthiness to acquire big purchases. So the challenge is to keep those lines of credit without using them.

Reflecting on my future endeavors is both invigorating yet scary. I'm afraid of failure! I guess I won't really know until I do it, huh? Well since this week's blog is about nothing but just reflecting...what are you reflecting on? How will you do things differently not even starting in the New Year but today? Or how will you enhance what you're already doing to get to the next level? Some things just need to be improved not necessarily "changed" 😉!

With that said...take a look in the mirror both physically and metaphorically to see what you need to see. Just reflect!
