Benefits of a Staycation: Choosing Joy

“Every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day.” 💛 . . I’m usually a cup half-empty kind of girl. I’m an optimist for everyone else, except for myself. It’s so much easier for me to see what went wrong in the day, than what went right. Gratitude is a really hard practice for me because it doesn’t come as naturally as I would like. These days have been hard. Really hard. Like crying-in-the-car-to-oldies-hard. But when I do remember to see the good in every day, it makes it easier to get up the next day and try to tackle life one moment at a time. . . So my something good is: I left work at a reasonable time today (aka before 8pm), and got to have dinner with Brandon. (One of the reasons why I cried in the car last week was because we haven’t seen each other much with me working late and him having class on Friday nights and Saturday afternoons again.) // Tell me your something good in the comments 💛 #pleblife

“At the end of the day, we can endure much more than we think we can.” —Frida Khalo 💪🏻 . . Let’s kick Monday’s butt—with a little help from a good cup of coffee and a yummy not-so-healthy pastry from @mrholmesbakehouse ✌🏻 #pleblife #gotbaked

“Remember how far you’ve come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.” 🖤 —Rick Warren . . It’s so easy for me to feel defeated and ashamed because I’m not the zen and content minimalist I want to be (yet), especially when I do falter and buy another sweater when I already have more than enough for a girl who lives in LA, or another t-shirt that I didn’t need. But I do need to remember how far I’ve come: I used to buy for single occasions; I used to buy things that weren’t me but were on trend and I wanted to fit in/be relevant; I used to buy new clothes weekly and purge huge bags almost bi-monthly, if not monthly. While I’m still a little impulsive, this recovering shopaholic has come a long way. And even though there is still a long way for me to go to being a mindful consumer, I am proud of the growth I have made so far. . . So this is your reminder: You’ve already come so far! Keep going! 💛 #pleblife

“You have permission to rest. You are not responsible for fixing everything that is broken. You do not have to try to make everyone happy. For now, take time for you. It’s time to replenish.” 🌊 . . I fell asleep early and quickly Friday night after a long week of 13 hour days. As Brandon tucked me into bed (aka turning off Netflix and charging my phone), he asked if I wanted to go to the beach this weekend. I woke up this morning after a much needed 13 hour sleep, and gave him the answer of: “HELL YES!” 🙌🏻 It’s still Summer here in LA so we’re going to make the most of it tomorrow 🌞 Here’s to replenishing before another week ahead. // How are you replenishing this weekend? #pleblife

you do not just wake up and become the butterfly . . - growth is a process . @rupikaur_ . . This is something that I need to remind myself constantly, especially when I’m tired and impatient with how slow growth can be. It is a process, and it’s always worth it. So let’s be patient with ourselves: we are doing the best we can, and are growing slowly but surely each and every day! 🦋 #pleblife
