Oh my god – with all on your plate I’m amazed you can keep up. I’ll tell you what a therapist told me once – “be gentle with yourself”. Thanks for being here sharing something I can totally relate to – no being able to maintain 100% all the time.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Totally agree with Rachel here – loved this quote from your post Danelle: “What’s important is that we always go back to giving our dreams our best. Because our dreams, and ourselves, deserve nothing less.”

AMEN girl! Glad to hear you scheduled the lesson and loved reading about that and your reflections on the float and that process as well. You have a LOT on your plate and no we cannot be “at our best” in every moment of life. You are right – we just need to return to that when we fall away from it sometimes – because yes – we, our lives, our dreams, and life itself – deserve nothing less.

Happy Thanksgiving! Grateful to know you Danelle and to be part of the 8womendream team!

Hugs,
Lisa

Danelle, wow, it sounds like you have come up with a really great plan. Finding the right person to help, and making the commitment to working with them, is such a big positive step.

And thanks for writing this. We can’t give our best to everything all at once. That’s what priorities are for. And we can’t always keep it up all the time. That’s what vacations are for. But yes, it’s important to go back to it when we can.

Great post, and you sound good. We’ve missed you on the blog. I hope you have a great time in Tahoe and lovely Thanksgiving.

Sometimes I think we just have to do things whether we are “in the mood” or not – such as exercise – and it may not be our best, but we got it done.

Sometimes my posts are like that
