Celebrate in the Storms

I’m working hard to find the wins this week, to celebrate even during the storms life can bring us.

We’re in a hard season and it’s easy to stay in the dark. Let my mind race, spiral, and spin to the negative and worst-case scenarios. I won’t let it!

I will choose the light. I will choose to look for the wins.

I’m stressed and I’m fearful about the future so I will pause and choose to pray instead of fear.

I will choose.

This is my tool when my thinking starts to go sideways AND this is my win. Today I’m especially grateful that I know how to get out of my head. I will keep strong during this storm and manage my mind. I will choose.

What’s on your mind?

Poem of the Day:

      I Will Choose

Bring a good attitude 
Manage my mind 
Many obstacles and mountains
To climb 

In life and motherhood 
In racing and training 
It’s a daily practice 
No need for complaining  
 
I’m deliberate in my thoughts
What will be my mantra
Or my affirmation 
It’s up to me 
I will choose
To take responsibility 

No one else will do it for me
I know what it takes 
I will get out of my own head
And not stay in the dread 
 
I will choose
The sentence to bring me back to the light  
And this we'll pass down to our children 
So they know the fight
