DREAM BIG!
I'm not a big resolution person but I do enjoy making goals for myself. I have a Bucket List (See labels) more of a life long list. This year I deciding to do a "Goal list". Small steps! Not biting off more then I can chew! Nothing more disappointing then creating a goal list or resolution and not completing it!
So! Whether you are in a Abusive situation of some sort or if you were able to leave (throw out) your abuser, make this the year for you to begin again!
DO SOMETHING!
BE AMAZING!Do something new/old- Dust off your camera, craft supplies or whatever your passion lies.
Learn something- Whether you always wanted to learn Spanish or perhaps you may have to learn self defense.
Do things that make you happy!
Include your child(ren) or pet(s) in your endeavor!
PLAY! Don't lose sight of finding a time to unwind or just play!
Ditch FB or other social media or computer and live in the real world. I can honestly say I lose track of how much time I spend on here. (Pinterest is so dang addicting!) I miss out on family time by surfing. Even if it is for a half hour. Step away from the computer!
Remind yourself YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO!
Throw out the tissue, pick up the pieces to your life and live!
What did you do before Mr/Ms Wonderful (Sarcasm) entered your life?
I am not advising party life. I've heard too many stories about survivors ending up back in the cycle of abuse because of someone they picked up at a bar or party. (Not always but this is my opinion due to others I've heard about and chatted with)
Surround yourself with those that will lift you up, encourage you and bring you happiness. Ditch the ones that cause you grief or craziness to your life.
Stand up for yourself, if need be with your ex's family and friends or your ex!
Don't give up! Stop making excuses for pushing it off!
Now I know your wondering what's on my list! Well, if your not I'm posting it anyway! BIG SMILE!
