Monday again? 😳
How do you start your Monday’s?
Monday's can set the tone for the week. It is an extra day after Sunday to kind of get it together for the week. Every monday, I try to share affirmations across my socials. This week, I will be sharing affirmations for intentionality and grace. I realized that I have been spending so much time in my life trying to meet other people's expectations or even my own unrealistic expectations. I am working daily to be intentional in the things that I do, and to give grace to myself and others along the way.
How do you start your day?
For me, I enjoy quiet time reading a morning devotional and prayer or meditation. I have been reading Marshawn Evans Daniels' "Believing Bigger" and have seen my mindset and honestly my life shift, make sure to grab the devotional over on amazon here.
I am surrounded by people that push me to become better.
I have been in a new group chat with my mommy and my new sister Najma, which we named "Faith Talks." In the group, we not only discuss our faith, we discuss and share our thoughts, our dreams, our fears, and we share the word with one another, which has been powerful. Tap in to my YouTube playlists for the word and praise and worship if you're interested.
I am using positive self-talk.
I also like to speak kind things to myself by reciting affirmations, bonus points for reciting them in the mirror. A practice that has been helpful for me, is sharing these affirmations with you all weekly. It allows for me to set intentions, but also leaves room for grace and dreaming. I am also publicly declaring these things, so I can make it real, so I can believe it, and so I can see real changes in my life.
I am creating the life of my dreams.
Before I really get into my day, I also double check my automated or scheduled posts for across our social media platforms, if you are not, make sure to connect with us on Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, and Facebook. Show us some love and engage with us, it makes all the difference! 💋
I am committed to doing my best.
After all those things, I can begin to check emails briefly, get dressed for the day, which sometimes means switching from my sleeping t-shirt to my class t-shirt, and that's ok. #grace I spend some time thinking of priority items on my list, like finishing up readings for class, or any meetings or trainings I may have in between or after classes, and then anything I need for myself like groceries, fresh air, a change of scenery, food, a nap. I try and generally plan out my day, but I am being intentional about leaving room for changes and disruptions, like wifi and tech issues, or pms! 😅
Here are affirmations for Intentionality and Grace:

I will do the work.
