Hi darling! Welcome to the my journal, my journey about my real life, my heart and my travels photographing beautiful souls! Sit back, have cup of tea and stay for a while and be sure to say hello!
I’ve felt it. More than once. AlI wanted to do was snuggle on the couch and DO NOTHING. Have you ever felt that? I mean, you wanted to do NOTHING? Sometimes being a boss mom is a lot. It can feel like there is so much to do all of the time and there just simply isn’t enough time.
I felt that. I felt tired and totally unmotivated. I felt in a funk. COMPLETELY. I felt frustrated because the thousands of tiny choices were NOT producing the way I wanted them too.
I realized after giving myself some grace, it’s just a feeling and it will a pass, but in the middle of processing that, I found the gold. My frustration came because what I was giving wasn’t coming in return. FAIL BLOG. Somewhere along the I NEED TO CREATE CONTENT 24/7 I had a blurb of a moment that took me out of giving mode and my hands were wide open to GET something.
Then, frustration settled in. Anytime I am doing something to get, I get frustrated. We weren’t made to create that way and we certainly WERE NOT made to give that way.
I though I have learned that lesson before. The thousands of times I had shifted my heart back to a place of give instead of get? But it creeped back in and I caught it. WHEW!
Give to people. Give to them hard with no expectations and you will NEVER be frustrated. When you find yourself frustrated at your progress, stop and realize what is motivating you. Go out of your way today to just give… especially if it means, giving yourself grace.
SO much love,
Julie
