Year of Yes – 288
Happy Friday. I am still working on doing a better job with rest and a better job with remembering what’s mine to carry and what’s not.
Always a work in progress.
Yes to being patient with myself.

 Year of Yes – 287
It’s almost Halloween which means I can put my Christmas tree up soon. I’m not a fan of Fall but Christmas season is my favorite. It’s performance evaluation season at work so I have been thinking a bunch about how to give and receive feedback. And how other people’s feedback might be valid and still it doesn’t mean I have to do anything about it. I can receive it, say thanl you and then decide if I’d like to incorporate it. I get to decide which feedback matters to me and what I want to do about it. Like other things in life,.I can choose if this happens to me or if I decide to be an active participant in the conversation. Having choice and knowing it’s up to me completely changes how I show up. Yes to owning my own life and choices. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 286
Tonight I rest. I haven’t been sleeping properly. I keep waking up in the middle of the night and then have a hard time going back to deep sleep. So tonight I will rest. Yes to rest. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 285
I am working hard not to hold on to what’s not mine to carry. Being intentional with how to help without fixing and how to be present and sit with things without rushing to solve. All of which is so hard for me and yet so liberating when I can do it. Yes to growing and learning. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 284 I connected with an old friend today and it reminded me how magical and easy it can be to spend time with someone who knows you and sees you. New friends can be fun and exciting and yet old friends are like comfy clothes that always fit you just right. It’s always good to have a mix of both. Yes to reconnecting. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 283
Lately I find that I am running out of time often. Time is passing quickly and I am having trouble getting all the things I want to do, done. When I feel this way, I am usually cranky so I am reminding myself that time is the most precious asset I have and it’s the only one that cannot be replenished, thus it helps me to be intentional about how I use mine. I don’t know what the right answer is for me right now and I am having a hard time choosing so instead I decided to make a list of things I never regret spending time on: – playing games with my kids That’s some of my list. So the plan is that when in doubt I do one of these. Yes to using time well. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 282
Here’s to choosing joy again and again! Yes to joy. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 281
Happy Friday. Today was hectic and full but I still feel the ease I’ve been trying to hang on to. Let’s see how long I can stay with it. I hope your weekend plans are exactly as much or as little as you like. Yes to choosing the life you want. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 280
This morning I had a moment where I realized that I am not anxiously stressing about anything actively at this moment. I have some things sitting there in low noise bit nothing really taking up constant space in my brain. Is this how others’ feel? If so, I’m so jealous! I am making sure to note this moment because it doesn’t happen often but it does happen and it’s important to acknowledge it so I can remember what’s possible. Yes to ease. Yes to paying attention. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 279
For the first time since March of 2020, I got to go to work today to the building where I work and see a few of my work colleagues. It was quite magical. It felt weird and nice at the same time. I wonder when it will feel normal again. Yes to baby steps. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 278 I am learning to write things down. It’s amazing that I have to learn and relearn this trick but here we are. I’ve been making a lot of lists in my head lately. Things I am anxious about. Things I have to get done. Things I need to follow through on. Etc. When they are in my head, I keep having to repeat them to myself again and again so I don’t forget. When I write it down, there it is on paper. I can see it, I can cross it off and I don’t have to worry about forgetting. Obvious and yet I had stopped doing it for some reason. Yes to writing things down! #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 277
I’ve been consciously working towards paying attention to the direction of the flow lately and trying to see where I can go with the flow vs swimming upstream too often. I’ve also actively been putting down things that aren’t mine to carry. And being intentional and really clear with what’s actually mine to carry. Much of this also comes with trusting others and trusting the universe and I am working on that too. When possible, swimming in the direction of the flow is considerably easier and creates space for so much more. Yes to ease. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes |
