Hi Ladies, What's going on in my little head? I've done my best to be efficient this morning and to be ready to have an amazing fresh start.. with great workouts, proper nutrition and full of motivation... But, what I did not have planned was a major illness the night prior and a huge inability to sleep more than 2 hours. I felt exhausted that morning, unable to walk, my head was bubbling... I felt miserable, my legs were so tired. I was dreaming about a nap from my waking up. At the end of the day, I feel blessed to have found the strength to eat healthy, to beat negative thoughts, to share positive messages with my followers on instagram (obottin). Unfortunately, I was unable to workout properly... My schedule is ready ... I just need to move my A... and make no excuses. See u... Need to think about my failure and learn a new lesson Welcome back gorgeous incredible high achieving women!!
I did not let you down last week but to be fully honest I was in Great Britain for a very important interview that may take a huge toll on my life during the next couple of years. I've almost dreamed about this job for so long that I've taken the time to prepare my interview and be the best I can be during a so short amount of time we had. I came back with an incredible sense of confidence, a marvelous feeling of achievement and the thought that "no matter what will happen i've done what I had to". Now, it's time to get back on track... my future dream life is not an excuse to forget my other goals: becoming a better version of myself including becoming stronger, healthier which means becoming slimmer and toner. See you tomorrow from a lovely french town called Strasbourg. Hi Ladies,
Hi Ladies,
There's always plenty of stuff to do each day and even when we are well prepared, it seems that a sand chunk comes often in our marvelous organization. When that hectic balance is around the corner, you have to focus on what could be handled by YOU ONLY: your time and the way you manage it. Rethink what's important/urgent/what need to be done RIGHT NOW... then schedule it and think about resting time between each activity. Most of the time, the important/urgent/non negociable comes from the goals you have defined in accordance with your core values (see previous post): DO NOT PUT TOO MUCH ON YOUR PLATE... keep everything under control and delegate if you can. Then, think about wellness activities such as meditation, yoga, pilates, working out, walking with friends or just relaxing ... It will help you to overcome everyday stress and you will have a better perception of what is REALLY urgent in comparison with what you THINK urgent. Do not get discouraged by your attempt, you will become more efficient as time passing by. Trust yourself. You can do it. Hi Ladies!
Yesterday, I talked with a close friend of mine and she told me "I often think of you when I have to make a decision". It was such an incredible moment for me... I felt so humble and blessed to know that my experience could have made a difference in someone's life. So, to celebrate my friend and give you some tools to feel amazing on this warm and sunny Monday, I'm gonna share with you one major tip that has changed my life. I know my core values. In fact, a core value could be seen as a virtue/quality/ability that truly define who your are, your behaviour or your temper. I'm not telling you it's easy but it's like a foundation, a strong basis on which you can go on and build a strong "housing". To make it easier, I've realized that my core values are like an ABC:
When I'm feeling blue, I just remember to my ABC and I choose 3 qualities that make me smile at this particular moment. I know it's working as weird as it seems. Try it... and tell me how it works for you... See u Hi Ladies! I DO NOT LET YOU DOWN!!! I will keep my promise, I'll be there next to you to share my story and my message. Nevertheless, I did not expect that commitment was such a tough feeling that lead me to guilt.... fear and then to failure. By the way, it's probably a great opportunity to bring you to my journey as well as to show that EVERYONE has difficulties from time to time. It's perfectly normal and it's absolutely natural to get out of the wagon... It does not mean that you have failed, that you are just a piece of..... (insert something dirty or disgusting). It's just a great reminder to focus on what is truly important for us. In my situation, it means that I need to do what I'm uncomfortable with: asking for help. In addition, I have to be confident in the process and feel secure about my choices as well as with my goals and/or core values (I'll give you more about that notions very soon). I know, deep in my heart, that I'm able to be a creative person and, at the same time, I'm able to be a good researcher in criminology (which is my PhD). Following your dreams and building the life you want is a major purpose in life and I have to admit that Marie Forleo (follow her on @MarieForleo or www.marieforleo.com) has provided me incredible free content to empower my vision of life. Let's get back on track and see you tomorrow From the beginning of that adventure, I've tried to be as honest and courageous as possible. Yet, I had to face some hectic time.. a huge amount of roller coaster feelings that had engrained a lot of fear in my own perception.
Last Monday, I was reading my email because I was waiting for such an important email from a possible employer. Then, I looked at my mailbox and read that "unfortunately, I was unsuccessful". I thought my world collapsed, my legs were shaking and I felt tears on my cheeks. I've done my best but I failed... I've sent 49 applications and nothing seems to work for me... Well, it may be "natural" because I've obtained my PhD two months ago only... Nevertheless, I felt miserable and stupid. What the hell?? What was wrong? I had to think about it for a while before being able to talk about it calmly and with serenity. Now, I'm aware of the need to build my own company, gaining my own outcomes from my expertise and sharing my experience with you. How do you cope with that kind of situation? What are your best or worst memories? Take care and cherish yourself. Thinking about my comfort zone is a very challenging issue because I never felt as if I had one. What a funny try ... When someone asks you to get out of it I tend to answer "i'd be happy to stretch my zone but at least show me where my comfort zone is" According to my experience, you have to know you core values and basis before trying to modify something. You know you will rise your inner bar but don't be scared or discouraged by the time is takes to do it. I love... I mean I love those kind of days... when I'm able to organize my space my desktop and my agenda to become more efficient until the end of 2013. I dropped 3000 mails at least... built several files and dealt with several issues. I've managed my content for my blog and improved my social content... What a wonderful day. Take a look on the #positivequote on the home page. See you I am so lucky today to be at Strasbourg. Amazing town with so many lovely places . Well basically July 1st is a time to assess my accomplishments and what need to be done before St. Sylvester eve. This year for a very long time i am proud of me and i've got the feeling that i've reached another level of consciousness I'm not scared anymore about challenges or taking risks. Today's mission: updating my goals for 2013 See u tomorrow |
