#EARLY Mindful Mondays

#MindfulMondays2.0

Y'all today has been a day..... mainly a long productive day! Many millionaires and successful businesswomen and men like Robin Sharma, Tony Robbins, & The Rock just to name a few have praised waking up very early in the morning.

I have always wanted to start an early like birds chirping and before sunrise type of morning routine and today was that day. 

Y'all this morning I woke up at 4am and have been up ever since... sans my mid-day nap. This nap felt like it welcomed me to ACT II of my day. The crazy thing is I am NOT, in any form a morning person. So this for me feels like I should be awarded a trophy with the amount of productivity I have accomplished.

The main 3 Things  I have learned today is

1. Underestimated my Productivity

I definitely underestimated the number of things that I could accomplish in a day. By noon I had already knocked off almost everything on my to-do list and I was just in utter disbelief. I managed to take a nap and still have ANOTHER part of the day left.  

2. Daily Habits Are Important

I realized that my daily health habits ( ie. water intake and actually eating healthy meals played a major part in my success. As the more energy, I have the higher my morale and the more productive I am. I for some reason was sooo hungry. By 7am I actually was eating steak for breakfast 😅😅. Truly I definitely ate several more meals than I usually do as I needed more fuel in my tank. Next time I do a long day like this I HAVE to meal prep as when my stomach is yearning for snacks it's really important that I grab healthy options. That way I will feel less hangry.

3.Mindset is Key & So is Intention.   

The last thing and most important lesson I learned was that my mindset played an integral part of my day. There were moments where I felt like I should be tired but really it was 11 am and the day was so bright and full of opportunities. The ability to keep going and staying focused on knocking out other things on my list and not feeling tired and succumbing to my "perceived thoughts that I should be tired."

Overall this day truly taught me some key lessons.  In order to live the life of my dreams, I have to step it up and walk the talk! 

Thanks for reading along and 

til next time,

#NewSeries

Mindful Mondays

#MindfulMondays

Officially New Series I will be doing! I realize that I don't share my spiritual practice on my blog as much I used to and it is a missing piece of the blog! So I'm going to start a new series about being mindful and share some of my key takeaways of late!

Today's yoga session in my hometown @balancestudiowf by Carson was so perfect it was almost a spiritual experience! The Mindful Flow today helped me get out of my head and return to the present in the here and now! When I find myself feeling anxious or nervous it's because I'm not focused on the present! Taking a second to enjoy the present and expressing gratitude has consistently helped me return to my center and stay grounded!

🧘🏾‍♀️🧘🏾‍♀️ Definitely was the best way to start my week!🧘🏾‍♀️🧘🏾‍♀️

I know that I personally have been diving so much deeper in my spiritual practice as of late and I realized that was missing was the human connections with other like minded people! So today's yoga session was a step outside of my comfort zone as I realize I do need to connect with others, covid or no covid human connection is muy importante!

And I feel like my cup has definitely been refilled as that one hour session was definitely perfection!

I realize in the afterglow of this yoga session that there is a need to deepen  my yoga practice as it flows well in my meditation practice! Haha who would have thought!

I'm so glad I followed my intuition today and room the class!

Hope everyone has a fantastic week and atay tuned for next weeks Mindful Monday as this series is so exciting and is definitely representative of my daily habits and current lifestyle!

***Also if you're here for the fashion don't worry that's not going anywhere 😂😂. It just feels like the best time to expand upon other interests in my life so I can authentically and genuinely show up!!

#CurrentFridayMood

The joy I feel when my clients  🏡 offer has been accepted!!🎉🎉

Y'all life has been so crazy as my real estate career has been at the forefront of my time and energy the past couple of months and I'm soooo grateful!

I have always dreamed of becoming a realtor and in 2019 when I officially became licensed I knew it would be a big commitment but I didn't realize how much it would change all aspects of my life!!

Literally this week I woke up at 5am to write an offer as this current market is so competitive!

And everyone who knows me... knows that I'm not usually a ☀️ morning person 😂 

If that doesn't tell you I've had to shift my habits then I don't know what else will lol

But truly all of the shifts and pivots I have encountered this year were completely necessary for me to do my dream job!

Leaning into the fears and anxieties of this career and the world changes has forced me to grow in so many ways and totally practice what I preach and do all of the inner work especially during the trying times of this pandemic.

Consistency & Discipline were key values of my life I had to intentionally work on to work in such a competitive field.

Also, I realized how much I missed people and the sense of community this year. You would think engaging in social media would have been a great choice but I was finding myself feeling more disengaged with social media as I was finding a sense of community in myself and my family.

This year truly brought so many unexpected lessons for all of us. My pause on social media helped me re-balance my new career shift and allowed me to see what I truly need and want in this world. The pause gave me so much clarity and I appreciate everyone who has followed along with my journey and offered support!

Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
