What it Takes to Get Back Up

Posted on by

This week I had a chance to see my hero, Brene Brown! If you don’t know who she is you MUST check out her work (here). Her new book Rising Strong is rocking my world. Her subtitle alone is enough to stop you in your tracks. “If we are brave enough, often enough, we will fall. This is a book about what it takes to get back up.”

Honestly, when we go after our goals it is all about learning how to get back up after we fall. When we embrace the truth, that we are not going to do it perfectly and that we will make mistakes along the way, half the battle is won.

For example, one of my goals for the 12 weeks of coaching series was to post a blog every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday … well I am falling. I am not going to be able to post every Saturday moving forward due to my upcoming book release. Part of my fall was over committing to a very full schedule. However, that’s not going to stop me from moving forward in my goals. I will continue to blog twice a week, train for my half marathon and work on my book release.

Let me know where you’ve fallen down in your goal and will you continue to pick yourself back up and keep moving forward?

When You Are Struggling

Posted on by

I feel like I want to quit so bad this week! Do you ever feel this way?

After running my longest run of the season I’ve been struggling with my mindset. It is totally crazy because I actually did very well on my 8 mile run.

For some reason I’m wrestling with a negative mindset and keep questioning myself … Can I really do this? Am I really strong enough?

And then I go to a long list of “what ifs” …. What if I get an injury? What if I don’t finish the half marathon?

Have you ever done this? Worrying about the future and not living in the present moment?

Earlier this week I shared with you about Chapter 13 in my book Just Live Today. Honestly some days I can live in the moment and embrace what’s right here in front of me and then there are other days, like today, when I struggle feeling overwhelmed, stressed out and insecure about all kinds of things worrying about the future.

As much as I would like to tell you I’ve got it all figured out and I Just Live Today perfectly that simply is not true. Life is a balancing act. When you think about balancing, it does not mean that you are perfectly steady but that you are still slightly juggling things to keep the balance. I like to tell my clients, “Life is about progress, not perfection”.

Leave me a comment and let me know if you are struggling to Just Live Today and live in the moment? If not tell me what you are doing to stay live in the present.

A Simple Tip to Overcome Stress

Posted on by

When you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed with your schedule what can you do to get rid of that tension?

One trick I’ve shared with my coaching clients over the past few years is an acronym I created called S.L.O.W.

Stop … stop what you are doing.
Listen … listen to your surroundings, to your heart, to God. What is it telling you?
Obey … be obedient in what you just heard.
Walk … put it into action, do it now.

Today when I was feeling overwhelmed I asked myself what can I do to stop feeling this way? Immediately I knew I needed to S.L.O.W. down.

Leave me a comment and let me know if there is anything you are feeling overwhelmed with today & be entered to win a copy of The Mended Heart by Suzanne Eller.

Living in God’s presence will shift you from being stressed to stressed-less. Check out Tracie Mile’s Stressed-less Living bible study here!

Meditate on Psalm 16:1, You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

What My Coma Can Teach You

Posted on by

I was reminded today on my run of how I felt when I was in a coma. The feeling of being trapped, hot and unable to breathe brought back lots of anxiety.

I thought I was going to have to quit running and just go home. But I stopped myself and thought about it. The feelings of being trapped and anxious are nothing but darkness. That is not light … that is not Jesus. I had to make a choice, believe what the word of God says and speak life to myself or stay in anxiety and fear.

Because of my coma and the anxiety it brings me unexpectedly at different times, I have to be intentional about how I choose to deal with it. The same is true about our goals. How are we going to intentionally deal with the thoughts we have about our goals?

What are you choosing to believe about your goals? Are you choosing to believe the truth about yourself, what you can do and what is possible because of Christ living inside of you? Or are you choosing to believe lies and negativity from the enemy?

Be Flexible in Your Schedule

Posted on by

Today’s coaching tip is on being flexible!

What do you do when something completely messes up your routine after setting your goal and coming up with a specific plan? For me this week it was jury duty that wrecked my schedule.

I had a choice to make, either wait until the evening to do my run or get up extra early and run in the dark. I know myself all to well, which meant I had to get my exercise in the wee morning hours or more than likely I’d skip out on it at night.

When life gets in the way it can be an easy excuse not to follow through in our goals.

Are you going to give into excuses or be flexible?

Leave a comment and let me know how you can allow flexibility into your schedule so that you will accomplish your goals? Everyone who comments will be entered to WIN devotional book by Lysa TerKeurst.

Is Your Life Crazy?

Posted on by
 3lion

It started almost exactly 12 months ago.

Out of nowhere a shocker I was in no way, shape or form prepared to hear.

Someone very close to me was hurting so deeply that it was too much for me to grasp.

Instead of offering compassion I got angry … very angry!

Fear and anxiety overtook me.

My mind raced with horrific thoughts. And the more I thought about this desperate situation the angrier I became.

I had no peace, no hope, just sheer panic.

Has this ever happened to you?

Sometimes when a loved one is in so much emotional pain it is too hard to sit with and just be present with them.

It’s uncomfortable.

It’s vulnerable.

It’s scary.

Instead of offering a hug or a listening ear we try to fix them or we might even push them away. It’s not right, but its just they way it happens because it is too painful for us to see them hurting.

The enemy will use anything to cause division, especially with those we love so much.

I’m writing this today to remind you and me that we must live on guard, ready for the next attack.

I’m not saying to live in fear of the unknown anxiously awaiting the next shoe to drop.

But I am saying we must put on our armor every single day. Ephesians 6:10-18

What does that look like for you?

Prayer … Reading the bible … Worship … Journaling … Listening to a sermon … Talking with a friend … Having a mentor or a life coach to keep you accountable?

How prepared are you for the next assault from the enemy?

What are you doing consistently so that you maintain a peaceful life so that when things go crazy you don’t?

I wish I could tell you that a year later everything is perfect and all better for my dear loved one, but that is not the case. However, I can say that through our greatest trials and deepest heartaches the Lord continues to provide.

Our God is good.

He is faithful.

And His mercies are new every single morning. Lam 3:22-23

Let me know in the comments if you’ve experienced attacks from the enemy and how you plan to stay prepared. 
I woke up this morning and pinched

Let’s Remove the Stigma

Posted on by

Will you join me in removing the stigma of mental illness?

Transformation Church and Rick & Kay Warren are passionate about the body of Christ coming together and removing the stigma society has placed on mental illness. Six years ago when I had cancer I received an outpouring of unconditional love and support even from strangers while I was sick, but I dare to say if I was struggling from mental illness I would receive the same support.

Kay Warren delivered a powerful message at Transformation Church last Sunday. Watch here. “Research shows 1 in 5 children and 1 in 5 adults in America will be affected by mental illness in a given year. Although millions of people are impacted by mental illness, people often feel isolated, alone, and unsure of where to turn for help and hope.” Saddleback Church will be having a special event The Gathering on Mental Health & The Church on October 7–9, 2015.

Leave me a comment and let me know if you personally have struggled or know someone struggling with mental illness. Let’s talk about this, support one another and remove the stigma!

Pick Yourself Back Up

Posted on by

Have you ever prayed, “God, I’m handing this sin over to you … I repent.”

You might even journal about it promising to God and yourself that you are done with a particular sin. But within 5 minutes you find yourself turning right back to that very same sin!

That’s exactly what happened to me this morning. Immediately I told God I’m never going to change. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9

Through his word he reminded me to pick myself back up and continue moving forward and hand it over to him once again. There’s no need to beat myself up.

Have you ever experienced this before? I want to encourage you to pick yourself back up again. Sometimes we have to multiple times a day. Share in the comments below your experience with this. 

{Thank you to all those who are praying for me and who have joined my prayer team for Worthy of a Miracle to be released this November. I am blessed by you. XOXO}
