Leslie's Lessons. I don't know who needed to hear this today, but today is a great day. Today is an excellent day to do whatever it is you want to do, whatever it is in your heart that you always wanted to say but for some reason backed down. You held it back. Today is the day to say yes when yes is necessary, when it is the better option. Know when it is mandatory, when it is in your best interest. Today is the day to look up in the skies and see the beautiful blue skies, to see the trees, to see the way the sun bounces off of the windows and the high-rise buildings, to see the cute dog and you just feel like petting it, but you're like nah, you just admire it from a distance. Today is a great day to come out of your shell. Today is a great day to walk away. And if you can't afford to walk away, to put in motion, be laser focused and decide this is it, I am leaving.

My plan starts today and I am committed to it. Today is a day that you jot it down in your phone, so it reminds you daily of holding yourself accountable to the goals you want to accomplish. Today is the day that you say goodbye to that toxic job, that toxic relationship, to people who no longer add value in your life and you just decided I don't want to do this anymore value in your life. And you just decided I don't want to do this anymore. I don't want to live this way. I don't want to struggle, I don't want to be the cast member in your story that just takes any crap that you decide to dump on them. Today's the day I decide that I'm the main character of my life and I get to decide what happens in my life. Today's the day that you decide that you no longer need to spill your heart and problems onto someone else, making them the master. Today is the day that you no longer let someone else control you, let someone else question you, as if they take care of you or pay your bills. Today is a day that you no longer make yourself available in the physical, mental, financial, energetic sense to anyone who only wants to take and not give equally where it is not mutual. Today is a day that enough is enough that you just go from being the person they expect to do something or keep in a box to living out loud, being the free spirit, just trying new things, just going and getting fresh cut flowers to adding color to your walls and adding your pictures, changing the bedspread, getting fit, just eating the donut, doing something that you just want to do, making the inner child that's still in you smile, inner child that's still in you, smile, giving yourself permission to just be and taking the branding, the shame, anything that anyone has tried to put on you.

Today is the day to be amazing, to define who you are. You set boundaries, you don't sweat the small things, you don't try to control people, situations, the world, and you just give into nature and understand. You have the power to design every step that you take, but you don't have the power to control everything around you. You have the power to control your emotions, to control what you say, what you do, to forgive yourself, to take that knitting class, to buy that new car or to sell your car, to downsize, to upgrade. Today is that day. It is up to you, it is all in your power. Your thoughts must be controlled by you Because what you think you create, you have the power to do so. Use your power today and use it wisely. Make this day amazing. Make this day amazing. Claim this day. Claim this day as amazing as you are. The power is up to you. Leslie's Lessons.
