Inspiration Within

Hello Loves..

      It gets to a point where I have trouble getting inspired. Every day life and moments gets in the way of your vision. I know that was a big issue for me.. I would look at people or watch movies to get inspired. It just seemed like nothing was happening and I had to go to the deeper part of myself to get the answer. Growing up on the Rez with my great-grandmother there were no thoughts of inspiration. Being a child, all you heard was, "you work hard to get what you want." that's something I could not understand. I wanted to be more but I had no role models or someone to look up to. But when you start to do your research and a lot of getting to know yourself, you find out a lot you missed.

For years now I have been working on myself and I have been a lot happier with who I am. With my life, it has been a difficult obstacle. I never thought my life would be the way it is today and I am very fortunate to have people in my life that love me and support me. A'he'heé Nitsaagó. Thank you very much in (Diné' language) With my journey I am also appreciative of every one of you that reads my Blog.

Last week I was driving with my daughter and she was telling me about what she's been up to and how things are going well and I was very excited for her. I am proud of her for doing what she loves and the courage to be able to take the next step forward. And I told her," Wow! you are living my dream life." and we both laughed. But the truth she is living my dream life. It made me think about inspirations and why I want to do what I want to do and how did all this come up to this point in my life. You all know I have a unbelievable story to tell and I plan on doing that very soon. I took a long break to gather my thoughts and I my thoughts are in order now. And I am ready, I hope you all are ready too. thank you for all the support in the past years. ..mmuah!

Back to my thoughts about inspirations. My children have a big inspiration for me. My grandmother, my mom and my great-grandmother. As I was growing up and living my life dealing with my journey, I missed a lot of signs that would have told me what I needed to do. We are here now. Journaling helps me everyday. Prayers help me and getting back into my yoga routine. All that makes life more manageable and it works. As I write every morning I think of all the possibilities and nothing negative. I make changes everyday for myself and family. I want to be an inspiration to many but most of all I want my granddaughter to look up to me. Over a year now I have been journaling, praying, writing, walking and eating healthier. So I started thinking about who inspires me. Even though my children inspire me, I needed more. I tried watching movies with a great ending and it helped me for a while but my motivation did not last. I know we all need discipline, determination and consistency to be able to do anything we desire. Our minds are very powerful if we think we can not do something-you already made it that way by thinking it or saying it. My great grandmother use to say that all the time when I was a child and I did not know what she was saying but now that I'm an adult it is all clear.

For Example: in our Navajo language, she would say," you can not say you have no money!" "especially if you have change in your pocket. That is considered money. You say that and you will it to happen."

It applies to anything you do. I have to set a goal to stay positive throughout the day and it has made my life so much better.

My morning routine had to change. I added my goals, daily plan and writing down what I am grateful for. I was amazed what it did for me. I was full of ideas and learning more and loving myself. Of course, I still had some bad days but I managed it better. Being inspired only comes from one place and you can try and look elsewhere for inspiration but nothing can compare to your own thoughts, ideas and mindset. I had to push myself a few times to get inspired to write or journal but I did it and it was great. I know now that I believe in myself to start and finish my goals. I have so much to offer and I hope everyone is on board with me. Thank you again for reading my Blog. I still have so much to keep learning about myself and I am here better than yesterday.

Thank you so much A'héhee and lots of Love and Blessings to you!
