Thou shalt know thine are enough at this very moment: I feel like I should put on a disguise while writing this because, ladies I am definitely guilty of this one! I think many of us are. Okay, I’ve accessorized myself with the Groucho Marx glasses/nose/mustache combo, I shall now continue! You need to show up before you’re ready. And by that I don’t mean you should head to work in your bathrobe with your #hair in a towel! It’s a figurative way of saying, don’t wait to become your version of perfect before you get off your sweet behind and go for your goals! Don’t get stuck in the “when” trap – “I’ll pursue my dreams WHEN; I lose 10 pounds, I have more time, I have more #money”, and so on. Absolutely nothing will progress until you do something about it. I’m reminded of something I heard Tony Robbins say once. He said, “Change is automatic. Progress is not.” If you wait around until the “right time” you may run out of time altogether! Change is inevitable. Seasons will change, you will #grow older, and the clock will tick on without you doing anything. But progress is something you have to work on. #People will never be perfect. We’re perfectly imperfect. So, if you’re waiting around to achieve perfection, let’s just say, you’ll be waiting a long while. And isn’t it just an excuse because you’re scared? The only way to achieve something great is to step out of your comfort zone and put yourself “out there”, and that can be scary. But isn’t living your life regulated by fear sabotaging your dreams scarier? The ability to progress is in your hands, and your hands alone. The comforting thing is, that’s the way it is for everyone. So though you may be alone in the pursuit of your dreams, so is everyone else in the pursuit of theirs, so you’re not really alone after all. All you can do is live one moment at a #time and realize that you are enough RIGHT NOW, and good things will happen, because you have the ability RIGHT NOW to make it so.
Thou shalt celebrate thy sexuality: Body shame and sexual expectations need to be kicked to the curb! You need to appreciate and accept your body – you can bring life into the #world after all! Let go of the sexual hang ups and pressure you put onto yourself and create a loving connection with your body. Celebrating your sexuality does not have to involve a partner. In fact, I believe your “first #time” should be with yourself, and that the foundation of all sexual relationships should be rooted in self-love, self-respect and self-pleasure. Your sexual power needs to literally be in your own hands before anyone else’s hands, (or anything else), is involved! Whether with a #partner or on your own, healthy sexual expression requires a constant flow of open verbal and physical communication. Listen to your #body and don’t be afraid to voice your wants and needs.
