Heidi Rae Coaching - Restart

Babes!!

I have some really good news for ALL of us... every single morning that we wake up is a clean slate. It's a restart. Not a re-do. A restart! We GET to start over every single morning.

Mondays are a favorite of mine. Literally. They have been for a long time, but I didn't realize their importance and their endless possibility until recently. Literally.

I can do not one thing about yesterday. It is what it is. It's in the rear view mirror and if I'm staring at my rear view mirror, eventually I am going to crash. Full speed crash. The rear view mirror is not for me to focus on. It's to remind me of my surroundings AND THAT IS ALL. Babes, the windshield is bigger than that little rear view mirror for a reason!! What is in front of me is FAR MORE IMPORTANT.

When I lay my head down at night, I am saying goodbye to my day. When I open my eyes in the morning, I am open to what this day brings. Show yourself grace for the days before you. Show gratitude for what you have learned and for that part of your PROCESS. Then focus, Babes. Focus on TODAY. It's literally all you have. Show up for today. Give back what you have learned in that rear view mirror and forge ahead on what is in front of you.

I'm a BIG fan of Lao Tzu. I had a saying written on my wall in the hospital post-stroke. R would read to me daily from the Lao. I love the quote, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." When you rise in the morning, your day begins with a single step. Before I could walk, I had to sit up. I had to roll. I had to stand up. I had to RISE. So, if you can not yet step - rise. Rise mentally. Rise emotionally. Rise spiritually. But, RISE UP.
