Happy Friday! Another week has gone by and it is time to do a recap and check in to see where we are!

Ok, as Grandma used to say - honestly is the best policy - so we have to be honest with ourselves here. If you come up less than perfect, congratulations! You are on your way, have something to work on and success is happening! If you have taken these steps and ran with them, embracing them fully, congratulations! You are focused and on your path and success is happening!

Wherever you are let's take a moment and celebrate. You have decided to take action and shown yourself that you can. This is a perfect moment. Savour it. Celebrate Now!

Ok, moving on, time to get serious. Well... not too serious, but it is time to get on track.

Starting off with step one. Worth every moment... time for yourself. This crucial first step is the tipping point. Once you have commenced with this, the rest will fall into place. Get out your schedule and pencil it in!

Remember...

Don't be afraid. It can be as simple as taking 5 minutes to be alone, a bubble bath with candles or a trip you take by yourself. You may need to ask for help, someone to watch the kids while you take care of you, and that is what you will do.

This time for you is, and always has been, right here waiting for you to take it!

It is time to ignite YOUR spark. Awaken yourself. Once you start taking your 'you time'

you will see and feel the difference. You won't want to ever go back. It's amazing!

Next...

That's right! Step away from the devices. It can be difficult, but it can also be done.

So, now that the shackles have been removed it is time to live! Are you going to have an action packed weekend or get on the leisure suit? Perhaps a sweet mix of both! It is really up to you, but here are a few ways to enjoy these precious few days...

Also...

Get out and experience nature. We all have a connection to our Earth and it is easy to become disengaged and get busy with life.

Take a chance to slow down this weekend and get some nature, even if it is just a little bit. The fresh air and natural elements have a calming effect. Enjoy!

Remember to make time to connect with family or friends in your life. You do not need to connect every weekend, down time is just as important.

What about a project that you have wanted to accomplish! What about a collaboration? Getting together, even once a month, to collaborate with other like minded individuals is a great way to get your energy flowing and let excitement sneak in!

Scheduling these things will help you stay on point, but be flexible with it as well. Too much rigidity will take the fun out of it. If you miss something, no big, you'll catch it next time - just make sure you don't start regularly missing things. Also, if something just isn't working out, like a collaboration, that's ok. Find another one, take a break and something else will present itself if you're looking.

Remember, YOU are worth it!!! Make these great new habits and you won't regret it!

Awesome things to inject into your life:

1. Make time for you. 5 minutes a day is as good of a start as any.

2. Step away from technology, at least for short periods of time.

3. Get yourself some nature on the regular.

4. Connect with a friends, make time for this every so often.

5. Find something to collaborate on with others of like mind, even if you only get together once a month.

6. Make some time for just you, on the daily - did we mention that?

7. Leave your job behind whenever you can, the more the better. Not so much that your never there and totally checked out, but it has been proven that those who take good amounts of vacation and are not always tuned into their career are more successful and happier.

8. Express Gratitude every moment you can. This is a great way to begin or end your day or both!

9. The added bonus!! Do something nice for someone out of pure kindness, without wanting anything in return. It could be a stranger or someone you know who could use a little pick me up.
