Today,
I say yes to making time to eat healthy meals and snacks.
Today,
I say no thank you to foods and drinks that don't nourish me and don't improve my health and my energy levels.
Today,
I monitor myself mentally,
What thoughts I'm letting camp out and the thoughts that I'm escorting out.
I say no to negativity,
To brewing in thoughts and instances and situations,
Real or imagined,
That put me in a state where I feel threatened.
I feel threatened with my identity,
My ego,
My pride,
What I want my reputation to be,
What I want people to perceive of me or think of me.
I say no to that.
Today,
I say yes to mentally loving me,
Befriending me,
Accepting myself,
Being kind to myself,
Being real with myself,
Knowing that growth is happening.
Growth requires patience,
But it's worth it.
Today,
I say yes to having my feelings,
Sitting with my feelings,
And observing my feelings.
I say no to lashing out,
To being so emotionally charged that I'm just reacting without thinking and without observing and without checking myself and checking in with myself first.
Today,
I say yes to being spiritual,
To being grateful,
To being still.
I say no to running away from my emotions.
I say no to running away from pain.
I say no to running away from discomfort and things that I just don't want to face.
Today,
I choose and say yes to looking at them,
Addressing them,
Finding out why the pain is there and what I can do to help myself.
Today,
I choose and say yes to emotional strength.
Today,
I choose to be and practice the spiritual person that I am.
I say yes to spirituality.
Today,
I say yes to being financially responsible.
I say no to being reckless with money and avoiding financial decisions,
Responsibilities.
I say yes to creating time to take stock of my finances,
To take inventory,
And to make decisions that will set me up for the future so that I'm reducing stress,
Worry,
Panic.
Today,
I say yes to being social with the right people at the right times in the right context that fit for me,
That work for me.
I say no to social environments that are simply a waste of time.
They don't help me.
They actually hurt me.
They set me back in my personal goals.
I say yes to changing my social circle wherever I need to.
I say yes to reconnecting with those who are helpful for me.
I say no to social relationships that have run their course.
Today,
I say yes to the path I know how to take.
I just got to do it.
I just got to live it.
Today,
I say no to wanting results here and now and immediately and even overnight because I know transformation doesn't happen overnight.
It's minute by minute,
Week by week,
Step by step,
Day by day.
And so today,
I say yes to mapping out my day,
Mapping out my week,
Mapping out my calendar,
How I will spend my time.
Today,
I say yes to budgeting well with my time,
My money,
My energy,
My resources.
Today,
I say no to picking up my phone and checking whatever it might be way too much.
I say yes to checking it enough but not more.
I say yes to physical health.
I say yes to exercise.
I say no to passive activities that are not nourishing me and are not energizing me and are not giving me rest.
Today,
I say yes to being me,
The unique me,
The me that does not exist anywhere else on planet Earth.
And no,
I say no to feeling jealous and envious of other people's lives or the way they're presenting their lives.
I say yes to taking care of what's in front of me and saying no to what other people might think of me,
What other people do think of me.
I say yes to accepting what I cannot control.
I say no to trying to change things that I cannot ever control.
I say yes to focus,
To determination,
To action-taking.
I say no to self-doubt,
Fear of failure,
And self-hate.
I say yes to loving myself and no to everything that gets in the way.
