Take The Time To Celebrate Your Accomplishments

celebrate your accomplishments

I have taken the day off work today to celebrate.  My daughter, Emma, aged 12 attended an awards ceremony this morning and I have to admit, I am beaming with pride. Emma and her entire class took part in the Navan Education Centre Write A Poem 2016 competition along with other schools from Co. Meath and Co. Louth.  She won the female entry for her school and we were invited to attend the award’s ceremony this morning where she was presented with a certificate and a copy of the published anthology that features her poem and the picture she drew to accompany it.

Why Making Time For Your Passion is So Important

Sun Smiling

Today as I am writing my blog post, the sun is shining, and the church bell is chiming to let me know it’s 12:00. The thought of sitting inside writing all day is deflating. I can hear the school children, cheering each other on – it’s sports day today and I have promised my children I will come across to the football field to watch them at lunch time. It is on days like this that I hate the fact that I have to work. I know I work for myself and can take the time off, but I just seem to be so busy lately.  It happens every now and again and I feel it building, the resentment, the boredom, and the longing to be working on my own writing. Today though I have to put those feelings aside and catch up on the work that pays my bills.

My Thoughts On Self-Improvement Podcasts

self-improvement podcasts

If you are anything like me, you probably lead a very busy life.  In the past week or so I have gone back to listening to self-improvement Podcasts.  I was looking for a way to boost my positivity without having to read more articles and books.  I wanted something that was quick and easy and that would be easy to fit into my schedule.  Podcasts are perfect.  They vary in length but can be so insightful.

My Thoughts On The Hay House World Summit 2015

 

I know that I have been quiet for the past week or so but that is because I have been so busy. I had lots of client work which is always a good complaint and I have been listening to all the amazing interviews in the Hay House World Summit 2015. This is a free event that ran over the month of May and featured 100 interviews with Hay House authors and speakers. It was fantastic and there was so much information to absorb. There were some great movies to watch too and I enjoyed these every evening. If you are a fan of Louise Hay or Dr. Wayne Dyer you will probably have heard of this event and more than likely spent a great deal of time listening to all the wonderful interviews just like I did.

On Synchronicities and Letting the Universe Work for You

synchronicities

I am a big believer in synchronicities. In fact, I am always on the lookout for them and I acknowledge and write them down whenever I notice them. Of course, the more I pay attention the more I notice them. I have been reading about the Law of Attraction since 2008 and through the years I have immersed myself in so much information that sometimes I think my brain is like a huge, old library. I remember reading long ago that synchronicities are your acknowledgement that the universe is listening to you. The problem is that most of us don’t take the time to notice them. We are so quick to say I want this, I want to that, please help me with, show me the right direction to take, etc., but we aren’t watching for the answers.

Today I wanted to talk about things that can drain your energy. We all have those days where we just feel tired or exhausted for absolutely no reason. We all have the days where we feel great until we bump into a friend or family member and after just ten minutes we feel drained and like we just want to go back to bed. What we aren’t aware of is that there are things that drain our energy and leave us feeling run down, tired, unmotivated, and so on. This is the topic I want to address today but before I can do that, there are some questions that need to be asked.

The article itself can be found at http://www.jenningswire.com/health/wellness/the-self-esteem-triangle/ and is well worth a read.
