thoughts about 2021
PART 1.
I’ve been feeling God shake my shoulder a lot lately, anyone else in the same boat?
I’ve been thinking about my goals and direction for this year, and I feel Him telling me to stop trying to control everything.
so. my only resolution? spending more time listening to Him.
maintain healthy boundaries, but spend more time in prayer about who He wants me to open my ears and arms to, despite my personal hurt and pride.
work hard and set huge goals, but allow His lead in how that looks for me.
give more and remain lost in the service of others, but allow Him to prioritize what that looks like.
I’m independent to a fault, but I’m going to spend more time letting go. trusting. and taking a step back to see what He’s trying to do through me.
2021 can’t be about me. or my feelings, my goals, my plans. I’m buckling up and preparing for the ride. ✨
Part 2.
y’all have heard it from me before, I’m an enneagram 7w8. one of the greatest fears of a 7? feeling/being trapped.
this is 𝘀𝗼 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 about me.
this year, I’m sure we’ve all said, more than once, how trapped we feel. things are just—off.
but the reality is, even with so much we can’t do, there’s still 𝘀𝗼 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻.
you can launch an entire business from your phone.
you can start a website or a blog.
you can start monetizing social media.
you can take a hobby and turn it into a business.
you can be mentored via the internet, at no cost!
it’s a great time to learn a new skill or build something great, and that’s exactly what I’m here to help you do, if you’re ready.
everything has changed in six months. but six months from now? you could look back and realize that everything has changed again, and in the most exciting way.
despite the unknown, there are some things I’m certain. and I’m so, so freakin excited for things to come.
PART 3.
a lot has changed in the 20 years since I graduated high school, and today I’m really grateful that I can support my family in an “unconventional” way.
I’m grateful for social media, relationships, the e-commerce space, and especially grateful that Monat chose a business model that can work for everyone.
I’m grateful for the men and women who build alongside me.
I’m grateful that because of Monat, I’m in control of my time, and time doesn’t control me.
I’m grateful to have more experiences and growth while bringing my family along for the ride.
I’m grateful that I said yes and never had to second guess it.
and I’m grateful for this little bottle o’magic helps me feel so good in my skin.
