Five Rules to Remember When Life is Getting Rough.

I don't know about you guys, but nothing cheers me up more than some inspiration when I am down! This Tuesday, we had a special visit from Mr. Steve Riddell himself and let me tell you he handed it to me today. I can not express how his wisdom has spoken to me recently. To re-cap, I have listed for you the top five rules to apply to yourself when you feel overwhelmed and/or flustered:

1. You can do what is in front of you.
• Meaning: When you see that mountain in front of you, tell yourself you can climb it. People get so intimidated by things that they often don't succeed to their potential. YOU CAN DO IT!
2. Energize your desires
• If you find something that gives you motivation, do more of it! Embrace your life with things you desire to do and you will feel more fulfilled and overall a happier person. Find a hobby that you like to do and do more of it!
3. Follow your intuition
• If something makes you cock your head and wonder to yourself "why is that," you should probably act upon it. Figure out why things are a certain way and if they need to be analyzed and changed to become better! There is always room for improvement. This can be very helpful with our relationships in life ;)
4. Take the lead in your life
• Don't let others lead the direction it is going. Take initiative and make yourself your "leader." Don't let others control how you feel or guide you down a dark hole. So many people are affected by the actions and comments of others, it is time for a change. 
5. Make action your passion
• This is my favorite because it sounds so simple. JUST DO IT... and keep doing it.  So many people set goals and don't act upon them! You owe it to yourself to take action in life!...I'm just sayin. 

It's Monday Already!?!?!?

Hey y'all it's that day of the week again (when you just don't want to get out of bed.) But hey, things could be a lot worse! This is the day where I set myself a little task list and get rolling on the week! This week is a bit different because it is the beginning of one of my favorite months of the year, JUNE!

Get car cleaned

Send off mail

Pay rent

Budget for the month
Plan out meals
Schedule hair appointment

(I am missing a few things such as laundry and grocery shopping but that is because I decided to be productive this Sunday and take care of these fun things!)

But before we start getting into these, lets have a recap of the weekend shall we? One of my very best friends, Abby, came in town this weekend so I spent most of my time with this pretty face! Jealous?

We decided to have a couple drinks Friday at Cabo to catch up and spent the whole day Saturday lounging at the infamous South Shore Harbor pool/bar.

Needless to say it was a weekend that tops most and it was well earned! 

Next up: How cute is this little guy?!?!

 Meet Max! He is a 7 week old Golden Retriever and is my newest nephew!!! "He is so fluffy I could die!" 

Well peeps that is all for right now. Enjoy your next few days and I will post again shortly! (Hopefully with something a bit more interesting.)

The Best Day of the Week!

Not only does today hold blue skies and happy hearts, but it is Friday (can I get a hollllllllller). Today also marks the beginning of an end for me. I have announced my resignation to my current employer (Hotze Health and Wellness Center) and may I say it is bittersweet.

As many of you do not know, I moved down here in July of 2012 to start a career straight out of college (UTSA) as a staff accountant. While I was employed here, I learned so much and will never forget anyone at this center. I also encourage each and everyone of you who have any problems with weight, moods, allergies, fatigue and thyroid to give this place a chance at getting your life back! 

Anyways, since this is my first post on here I would like to give y'all a warm welcome to my blog and hope to spice up your lives with some food for thought! Hope you enjoy!!!

Have a fabulous weekend and try to catch that gold in the sunset. Adios amigas :)
