Be the Star You are Meant to Be

When we make a decision to take better care of ourselves and take center stage we are making the world a better place. The most important person in your life should be you!! Create a life of purpose and focus on being the star in your own life. When you are among friends and colleagues talk with confidence and power. Let others feel your strength and inspire them to shine themselves.
Have you ever noticed a friend or loved one feeling like they can conquer anything? If so, did you ask them what made them feel that way? I bet it’s because they live a full life and take care of themselves. They know when it’s time to take a break and slow down even if just for a little while.
We have to plan ‘me time’ even if it’s only 5 minutes a day. After some time you will realize your 5 minutes turned into an hour because you are allowing yourself to take advantage of this ‘me time’.
Here are some suggestions for ‘me time’.
*Take some deep breaths to center and bring on relaxation.
*Take a short walk to get your energy flowing.
*Call a friend and discuss what good is going on in their lives. This will help you recognize what good is going on in your own life.
*Work on a jigsaw puzzle.
*When you plan on extra time take a bubble bath and either relax with soothing music and candles or read a book you have put off reading.
*Listen to podcasts, including mine, The Celestial Spoon. I speak about making you come first in everything you do. I interview people who inspire others to be the best they can be.
*Once a week plan for that hour and do your favorite thing.
Whatever works for you make a plan to follow through. When we plan it we have a better chance of doing the task. When we achieve these mini goals of me time we will shine and the people around us will perk up from our energy.
It’s a natural reaction. You will find others asking you what your secret is. You will be the star in their lives.
