This weekend, despite the holiday, I had a long list of things that needed done. And as I headed to bed last night I felt overwhelmed by the things left on that list. As I spoke to my fiancé about my frustrations and we reviewed the weekend I realized that it was not that I had slacked off. I had barely taken any time for myself. The list had simply been too long to be fulfilled. It had been an unrealistic, self-imposed demand. It was time to reframe my thinking.
This morning as I look at the long list of stuff I got done this weekend, I am impressed. I'm grateful to have reframed to look at what was done instead of what still needs done. I'm grateful to know I will have some time today to work a little more on that list. I'm grateful to know that what truly needs done will get done and the rest will come later. I'm grateful to forgive myself not only for not achieving the high goal I set but also for stepping out of my balance. I'm grateful to release any judgements, "should"s, or "need to"s. And I'm grateful to start the week fresh.
What are you grateful for this morning? What demands have you been imposing on yourself and are they realistic? What are you doing for yourself, to nourish your mind, body, and spirit? May today be a fresh start. May you find yourself refreshed and renewed, ready to start a new week. Have a beautiful day!
