The bright side is my thing. I never really realized it until the last 2-3 years. It was kind of hidden under being a Taurus, then life happened, things came to the surface and I realized I had the power to choose bright, dark or partly sunny.
Bright sides don’t mean you ignore what is there, it means YOU decide how you are going to life with the reality of any situation.
When stress comes up, I learn to take a time out. time outs can be 5-15 minutes of music and dance around to shake up my brain, it came be a walk or it can be a day off and doing something…. whatever takes you out of the moment and gives you a chance to re-charge and re-think. I am always more productive with timeouts. I have even left my computer at home for a weekend and unplugged. That one is often very hard for entrepreneur types to do. FOMO and a negative impact on your business.
Of course in FOMO , that F word is there and that is what is holding you back in most things. I have learned to trust that I need the mental timeout to create new ideas for whatever I am working on.
This bright side thing is a long time coming. I have WFH ever since 9-11 when my NYC textile company closed after years of struggling. it was a big life event, but something that was for the best.
I am happy to see so many other ladies embracing the bright outlook too during this stressful year where planning was not possible. Lots of ladies out there making lemonade in 2020! And that makes me hopeful.
Ok some maybe be adding a bit of vodka or tequila, but it’s all good. CHANGE only comes when you do something different! Doing the same old in everything, yields little or small successes. Change is where the biggest results are and where you find light.
Birds and nature are my next biggest inspiring things and life lesson teachers!
