Reflecting on September....

I thoroughly enjoyed September. Did I meet every goal? A good portion. I mean I worked hard, I gave back, I enjoyed amazing company, but best of all.....I learned.

A lot.

Here are random clips from my musings lately .... 

Musings: a period of reflection or thought 

Disclaimer: As usual, this is me being open. Judging is never welcome here. Just Love, Smiles & Giggles, and Lots of Growth.

So enjoy....

"Discipline really sucks."

"Excellence requires a step above average. And quite frankly, sometimes, I just want to be average."

"I mean how can I possibly squeeze in working out, going to work, cooking, cooking healthy mind you, maintaining a blog, maintaining myself, checking up and doing things with and for my seemingly 1000+ family and friends.....my Lord.."

"Social media be lying..."

"Somethings gotta give..."

"Doesn't always something give...get left behind..."

"Sometimes it is easier to just be average. But it really is the desire for more...for better... that makes one do more... "

"Structure...Structure is what I crave...Better structure..."

"Man I need a life coach or something..."

"For free..."

"I'm really blessed."

"Am I good christian?"

"Do I exemplify Christ in ALL I do...? because a lot of people sure do irritate me"

"I'm not perfect"

"I'm trying though...*sigh*"

"Why are some people intentionally horrible? like mean? spiteful?...like did you just hear yourself say that stupid thing?..." 

"Do people think before they talk?? before they act?"

"I need to work on my patience."

"I miss my mommy."

"I love love fall...pretty brown leaves falling everywhere..."

"I read somewhere that trees teach us to let dead things go... how accurate."   

 

"letting dead things go...lol...sounds about right..."

"Dead relationships...dead promises....dead memories..."

"let the hurt die, Awele.."

"2016 is almost over...my word..what a year..."

"and I still have a lot to do..."

"October is about to be so live."

*smiles*

Until next time,

Peace fingers,

Wait What?? Julyinngg ! #BPM's got news!!!

Hey lovely lovelies!

       

So this is going to be a super duper quick post on #BestPossibleMOI aka #BPM !

I wanted to say Happy JULY!!! Yes, even though we are 10 days in already. Lol! What?

I want to start a #BPM Monthly Check-in & Check-out !  

*yay!!* 

Wait whaaa?  What is that... 

Lol !! Well It's self-explanatory.  At the start of the month, I'll check in with you, get you HYPE!! Get you in the groooveee baby! LOL!  And MOST importantly get you thinking as to What Your Monthly Goals are to be the Best Possible YOU!  And then at the end, we'll check-out and reflect.. How did those goals go? What can we do better? What can we NOT do going forward...

get it?

Now give me a stronger Yay!!!**

**spirit fingers!**

Okay maybe not.

           Oh and I'm human and hopefully you who are reading this are too.  So if the goals repeat themselves, I think that's just fine, right? I so hope you join in ! I'm excited!! To join in or know what they look like, the goals will look like this..... Feel free to customize it to how you want it to look like:

GOALS      

--For my personal growth 

--For the exhortation (oooh big word) or honor of someone else

--For my family 

So For Example...... For this month of July:

For my personal growth:

1. Lose 5 lbs - yeah yeah, don't ...let's not do this. Just accept it !

2. Pass my Boards!  **pray for me!!**

3. Make a completely new dish I haven't had before ! *yum*

For the honor of someone else:

1. I plan on serving in a give-away package event for the homeless !  *excited face!**

2. I plan on displaying excellent service at my job and making people smile!

3. I plan on encouraging people through blogging more in July! 

For my family:

1. Call my family more (somewhere my aunties and uncle said AMEEN! LOL!)

2. Travel with the siblings and making memories 

3. Spend time with my pops : ) 

Now while this may be new to You, I have been doing this for over 2 years now and It has truly transformed my day-to-day living.  It gives my life so much more purpose and instead of saying "daggg, where did the time go? What have I done in my life? WHAT AM I DOING in my life?" You can simply say...Wait a minute !! Charlene from #BestPossibleME Put me ON to Monthly Goals and you can whip out your Journal or Where-ever you will store your goals-and-progress and you WILL look at it with so much joy, pride, reflection and just feel encouraged that You are Indeed Growing and Living! 

Okay until next time,

Peace fingers*
