Daily Gratitude Log

I think it’s so important, especially now, to recognize all of the little things that happen everyday that you’re grateful for. That could mean something like being thankful for that person in front of you who paid for your coffee this morning, or simply just being grateful that you woke up this morning. It’s tracking these moments everyday that help you recognize that there’s always something to be grateful for, even if you have to look really hard.

I’m going to start listing every day (or at least most days) the things I notice throughout the day that I’m grateful for. I’d recommend you doing the same. It may not seem like much but honestly, it can brighten up your mood in a second when you realize how lucky you really are.

Stay safe guys,

❤️Sarah

Any Suggestions On How To Lift Your Mood?

Hey guys,

I’m feeling a little down and would love to hear any tips you have on ways you lift your spirits during a tough time. As an example, I just went and picked up food and I left a nice tip for the woman working at the restaurant. She seemed genuinely pleased and told me I had made her night. That made me feel so happy to see someone else happy, and I realized that by giving to others, whether its a compliment or a tip, makes me feel better when I’m down.

What makes you feel better on off days? Let me know in the comments!

Start of Something New

I’m looking to start something new with this blog..

Since I have a lot more time on my hands, I think it’d be fun to change things up and incorporate more things that interest me. So far, this is has been more like an online diary of sorts, which is nice but I feel like I want to do more then just vent. I want to challenge myself, show my progress, and communicate with people that are going through similar things. I want to make people want to change their lives, help them them to find their passions, and watch them grow into the people they’ve always wanted to be.

I’m not sure exactly how I’m going to do that yet, but I’ve got a few ideas rolling around in my head and the first is to let you guys in what’s going on in my life right now, and the things I need to change. It’s been a pretty rough year for everyone so far, and I think it’d be nice to show people that they’re not alone. We’re all in this together, and things will get better. We just need to support each other, not forget about the dreams that keep us going everyday, and carry on.

My next post, I’m going to let you all in on my life and what I’ve been going through. Some great things, and some not so great. I have goals that I not only want to achieve, but need to, if I really want to become a better me. I’m hoping that by tracking my progress on here, and let you guys in on what’s going on, it will inspire you to do the same, and it will also keep me going.

I hope you’re all staying safe and healthy, I’ll talk to you in the next post!

The Quarantine Blues

Hey guys,

I’m finally feeling it.

I woke up today feeling a little low. Not really sad, but out of it. Being stuck at home for two weeks sounded like the best thing at first. After working basically nonstop for the last 4 years, it was nice to get a little break. But it’s starting to get a little depressing not being around people. I’m trying to find new at home work outs I can do, and my fiancé and I bought a new yoga mat because I really want to get into that. Maybe the next few days will consist of me trying my best to master the downward dog.

How are you guys passing the time at home? Are there any techniques you’re doing to keep your spirits up?

Let me know,

Sarah ❤️

When You’re Having One Of Those Days

Hey friends,

I’ve got dreams. Goals. Things I desperately want to accomplish in my lifetime and I will stop at nothing to achieve them. But, I still have those days.

You know the ones… The days when I’d rather stay in bed than get up and do my work. The warm blankets feel like heaven on my body, my eyes barely open, and my dog who’s cuddled up beside me, still sleeping. When that moment comes, there’s a choice I need to make.

Do I stay in bed, waste the day away and don’t get anything done that I planned to do? Or do I make that tough decision, roll out of bed, grab myself a cup of coffee and get to work?

There are days, still, when I choose the first option. But I’ve learned that at the end of the day, the feeling I get when I’ve done nothing, still have my pj’s on, and the only progress I’ve made is the series I’ve been watching on Netflix has now been completed, I feel terrible.

Remember, though choosing comfort over putting in the work may sound like the better option at the moment, imagine how your life will be one year from now. How have you progressed? What has changed? Does your life still look the same, and if it does, how do you feel about that? If you feel good, then disregard everything I’ve said. If not, there’s some changes that need to happen and you’re the only one that’s got to make them.

Reach those goals guys, you’ve got this!

Quarantine Goals

Hey guys,

Hope you’re all safe and well! I’ve been at home, with my fiance and our little fur baby 🐕 . I’ve been here over a week now and still haven’t deep cleaned the house like I said I would (who knew?).

So, for this post I thought I’d list out a few things I’d like to get done before going back into work, whenever that happens. I’ve learned that if I say, or type, my goals out loud for the world to hear (and not just to my dog), there’s a better chance I’ll actually do it. Also, if I make these goals more obtainable and not so big, I won’t feel so overwhelmed by it and just give up. Feel free to do this along with me and write out some of your goals, as well. In a few weeks, you’ll be amazed at what you’ve accomplished and be proud that you didn’t spend all this time at home being unproductive.

Here goes..

  1. Take time each day to clean up one room in the house. Organize it, put away things that shouldn’t be piled up in the corner, and wipe down and sanitize every area that gets touched.
  2. Exercise for at least 10 minutes a day. Pull out your yoga mat, turn on a work out video, play your favorite jams, and get yo’ sweat on!
  3. Make a cup of coffee (or tea, whatever floats your boat), sit down at the table and get your work done. Those essays aren’t going to write themselves.
  4. Once work is done, take a little break and then write. Even if it’s just a little post about your day, do it. My dreams of having a successful blog will never come true if I don’t work on them.
  5. Call someone. Your momma, dad, other family members, and best friends, all want to hear from you.

Okay guys, that’s all for now. Good luck on your goals and please stay safe and wash your hands! Catch you later,

Sarah ❤️

A Little Update

Hey friends!

Just thought I’d come in for a sec to update you on some changes in my life. And also because I feel like if I write it out, it’ll really sink in for me that it’s happening.

So first of all, I’m starting out on a little business venture. I don’t know how well its going to turn out or if it’s even going to bring in any revenue but I know it’s the right thing for me to do. I know this because, well… I can feel it. Do you ever just get that feeling in your gut, like a bunch of butterflies are going hysterical in there and you start to feel super excited, and you’re not completely sure why but you feel yourself being pulled closer and closer into that direction? That’s the feeling I’m getting right now. Even though I have no idea if this is going to work, I know it’s at least a step into the right direction. I’m finally doing something outside of my comfort zone and I feel like if I can accomplish this, I can accomplish anything. I’m a little nervous and uncomfortable, but I know that’s only because I’m growing and learning something new!

Anyway, if all goes as planned, I’ll let you guys in on what’s going on soon!

I’m finally taking a step closer to my dreams! Let me know in the comments about what’s going on in your life. What are your goals and how are you working towards achieving them? I’d love to feel like we’re going on this journey together!

Love, Sarah
