Weekend Results Day 3-5

Day 3 Results:

Compliment Someone

I gave a compliment to someone at work. This person has been so awesome and helps keep me motivated throughout the weeks. She loved the compliment and it made me feel better.

Day 4 Results:

Smile and Wave

We stayed in the house most of the day so there was not much opportunity again to do this but we checked the mail on Saturday and had a chance to smile and wave at our neighbors. This felt good and we got friendly responses back.

Day 5 Results:

Compliment Someone

I was feeling so down on Sunday and I decided to compliment my husband, he didn't even know it but just a small compliment to show I cared was all that I needed for me to feel better. I let him know how much I love him and need him around, he then spent the next 2 hours talking to me and made me feel so much better. Letting someone know you care is such a great feeling!

Next challenge - Day 6 - Motivate Someone Else

Today I am going to help motivate someone else who needs Motivation this Monday !

Day 2 Results

Day 2 Results:

Smile and Wave. 

Unfortunately, I did not come across many opportunities to smile and wave at people. I did however, make an effort to tell someone to have a good day. I saw this young women in the restroom at work, she was frantically doing her hair and makeup. I said hello and she said hello back and that was it. On my way out a thought came across my mind. This was an opportunity to do some good. I turned around and told her to have a good day. She was taken back and it made her smile, which then made me smile. 

In conclusion sometimes even the smallest things can make a difference, I will continue to smile and wave throughout the weekend and see if I can make a difference in someone's day. 

I am going to try to compliment someone in need!

Day 5: Compliment Someone

Day 1 Results

Day 1 Results:

Positive Thinking. 

I immediately felt a little better after finishing yesterday's blog. Blogging makes me happy. It makes me feel better and if I can help one person then it's all worth it. 

Blogging = Happiness

I was emailing my husband back and forth throughout the day yesterday and letting him know how I was feeling. His sweet words gave me more encouragement to keep thinking positively. 

"You are allowed to have days where you are emotional. I love you. We will get through it all. I promise".

When we got home we instantly cuddled up and began watching our favorite TV shows. We talked in between commercials. When I started feeling insecure about my looks I did a 360 and changed my thinking. Instead I told my husband how lucky he was to have me vs any other women out there. When he quickly agreed with my statement this made my heart melt and made me feel a lot better.

Yesterday was a good day and today will be to. 

In conclusion sometimes it is not easy but there are little things you can do throughout the day to remain positive. In the end it is worth it! 

Day 2: Smile and Wave 

I am going to try to smile and wave as much as possible today! 

Self Love #NoMoreTears

Several times a day I will ask my husband how I look, what he loves about me and the good that he see's in me. I know that this sounds needy but I am fortunate enough to have a husband that is very supportive and puts up with me. The reason I ask these questions is because in my mind I am never good enough. I am constantly picking on myself for things that should not even matter. I am worried if I do not look good, I worry about having a bad hair day and about what I am wearing. I know that sounds superficial but there is more. I get disappointed in myself when I don’t clean the house daily or when I skip a workout. I carry a lot of weight on my shoulders and when I get down the list grows with things that are out of my control. I feel upset that I am not a perfect person and hurt when I can't help others. At this point I am an emotional wreck and there is no stopping the tears. The reassurance I get from my husband does not always stop the tears and the feelings I am having. It does however, let me take a step back and feel loved. He seems to know what the right words to say are. The feeling of being loved is far greater than my depression and eventually I can calm down and breathe. It is easier to love yourself on the good days, the trick is loving yourself on the bad days too. I truly believe that you are your own worst enemy. When we forget to love ourselves and focus on all the negative that we see we tend to feel emotional, fearful, and exhausted both mentally and physically. This is usually when the eyes start to tear up and come pouring down.

I thought that today's post should be a lesson on loving ourselves. This will take time and be a learning process for both you and I. I cannot guarantee results but I can just let you know what I am going to try and post my results. Over the next 15 days I will be posting daily letting you know my progress and what I plan to do next. #NoMoreTears.
