SMILE THROUGH ADVERSITY

Are you ready? As we prepare for Holiday dinner or a family gathering, we ask, are you ready? It will be here before you know it.

That depends on what you need to be ready for!

Are you ready for what is in front of you? Have you ever looked ahead and planned for anything, it doesn’t matter what it is. How do you prepare for company coming for dinner, your retirement, a new family member, such as a baby or a wedding. Where does it start? Your Mindset!

Are you ready?

How do we get ready? Do you clean and prepare a meal. Do you decorate your house or place of celebration. Do you make a plan or a budget. Do you make a list of what is needed.

When we get ready, it’s not all on the outside that needs work. We need to clean out our hearts and minds also. Planning on preparing your mindset for change. Getting organized and finding how the pieces all fit together.

How do we do that, you ask?

Are you ready? It will be here before you know it!

There are many ways for us to get ready for whatever we have planned, and I want to share with you what I have found and what helps me.

I love lists. All sorts of them. Once you start you can find the things that are missing. For those dinners, you find the recipes and see what ingredients you are missing. When you send Christmas cards you cross off people as you send them. Here is more on lists.
For bigger events, more planning is involved. Babies are fun to shop for. But you will need certain things like a crib, and clothes and bottles and blankets etc. As my kids grew we all did a little adjusting. We teach them how to be ready.
For weddings you need to get your license, decorations, cake and other food for your guests. Then starting a whole new life. That means even more planning. Finding the right person to help you and guide you will keep you definitely sane.
Then thinking about retirement. How is your nest egg? Do you have it figured out? Are you ready! Having a few income sources is a great way to be ready, one or two that keep on giving. It’s never too late to start. Having an online business is a great way to start that. Check this out to set a budget for you to be ready!
Now for the mindset to help you get ready to be set for the other things you are doing. What are you doing to get your mind ready? Do you have a great library? Did you know that you can tell where a person is going by what they have in their library? This post can help you with some ideas.

Now take a look at where you are. We are going to start small not to overwhelm and complicate things. I have an exercise for you to do every day.

Read something for 15 minutes every morning. This gives you inspiration and direction.
Write something everyday from you reading
Share what you found
Listen to audios from great leaders
Gather together every week for a group session to share
Teach others how to do what you do
Attend get-togethers and events to gain more knowledge and meet great people
Get ALL-IN

Are You Ready?

Hello,

Look around, there are many things for you to ponder on and read.

Life changes all the time, some good and some bad. However, most of it we can control or adapt to as we grow. Then there are moments that are of the unknown.

Dealing with children, aging parents, dementia and cancer of a loved one, you tend to know change well. In other words, if you learn to accept it and know that it is coming, it won’t hit you so hard.

Check out my Survival Guides that will get you started on your journey to healing.
