I have been working on setting boundaries in my life as well as finding joy. I am becoming more confident in myself as I realize my value more and more each day. Something that I have realized in going through this process is that I enjoy encouraging others, and I can encourage others. It is something that I want to be more intentional in doing.
It is not difficult to encourage others, but I think we get so busy with life that we forget to try. I was speaking with a colleague today and just in telling her the changes I am making in my life currently, she was encouraged herself. It is that easy. I did it without realizing I was doing it. And do you know what? It felt great!
I am leaning into finding joy in day to day life and counting my blessings. I want to have a constant heart of gratitude, and one way that I am finding I can be grateful is by encouraging others. It brings me joy to make others smile. Isn’t it wonderful the way that works? You bring happiness to others and in turn you feel happy.
We only get one life, and I want to make the most of it!
