WELCOME TO THIS MAGIC MONDAY MOMENT
Kicking off your week with some thoughts around a favorite Disney quote (because in my world - Disney is life!).

Happy Monday!
So, I have to know…where do you land on the debate of when is the “right” time to decorate for the holidays and crank up the holiday music? It seems to be a hot topic. So much so – Jimmy Fallon and Dolly Parton just released a song called “Almost Too Early for Christmas”!
In my opinion – there is absolutely no “right” answer. You do you. Do what brings you joy – there should never be a limit on that!
Speaking of joy….we often deny ourselves of it subconsciously when creating the life we truly want. Here is Isabela Madrigal’s take on the topic (from the Disney movie “Encanto”):
Working hard, doing our best, being loyal, staying on the safe path – it all sounds noble. Our intentions are usually good. On the surface - it all sounds “right”.
But unless we are clear on what we really want and love our reasons for what we are doing and until we intentionally listen to our own voice instead of everyone else’s – we are most likely getting in our own way.
Sometimes we just need to take a step back, clear out the unhelpful thoughts and sit in belief. When we do that – we create space for expansive thinking and meaningful action.
I challenge you to examine your beliefs around “trying hard”. Give yourself grace and release some pressure.
When you get out of your own way – you will realize that it doesn’t have to be hard.
In what area of your life might you be getting in your own way of making progress and creating results? Challenge your brain to think differently by asking: “what if I didn’t try so hard?" What comes up for you?
Wishing you a wonderful week. You've got this!
