All you gotta do today is love yourself.
Pep Talk: On those wondrous days when your every move isn’t delicately scheduled and nothing is laid out in advance, it’s easy to stress. You’re not alone if you feel like, “I don’t have anything to do, but I’d better do something or else I’m going to feel like a big pile of crap.” In reality, you don’t have to do anything. Plan or no plan,...
Happy Birthday to you!
Pep Talk: Happy Birthday (whenever it is)! Everyday you grow more experienced, which helps you to make better choices, which helps you to build the life you love to live, which brings out your dazzling, contagious, infinitely magnetic beauty. People freak about turning any landmark age- 16, 21, 30, and on and on, but your age is a badge of honor. Why give a shit what the number means to the DMV or...
You make you happy.
Pep Talk: Think of something that would make you feel good - something simple that improves your mood and adds positive energy to the environment. Got it? Now do it! I want you to be as happy as you can as fast as you can. If going for a run, playing your fav song, or cleaning your space will make you feel even one iota better, run, play, clean!
Today remind yourself: I make me happy.
Don't dream it, be it.
Pep Talk: Why not be what you wish you were? Wish you were a hat person…the kind of person who wears hats? Then I think you ought to wear a hat today. It’s Saturday, for christssake, wear two hats! If you try it and it makes you uncomfortable, you can stop. People, even people not named Madonna, reinvent themselves all the time (come on out, gorgeous!) and their friends adapt and...
You're free of conflict and light as a feather.
Pep Talk: What might you lose when you let go of conflict? Maybe repetitive negative thought, paranoia, tension, and victimization. What might you gain? Time to create, a safer social environment, a more mature self-image, and a glowing, wrinkle-free, turn-the-other-cheeky complexion. If you’re like me, sometimes your shadiness sensor has a hair-trigger and you’re fully prepared to shun even the...
Everybody's different.
Pep Talk: Breakups are the WORST! Even if you know a break up is for the best and you say you’re fine with it, it still hurts and you’re plagued with questions. How did that dickwad take up so much of my attention? When am I going to be able to smile genuinely again? How could I allow someone that far into my heart? Soon though, you start to feel hearty again and you’re ready to...
Holy Shit- You Nailed It!
Pep Talk: Wowza, you are dead on. That’s unbelievably impressive. You took on a task, you worked hard, and you knocked it out of the park. The best part is that you maintained your signature style and it added to the integrity of your project. Whether doing homework, workwork, friendwork, loverwork, famwork, youwork, anydamnkindawork, you should be pleased with all you’ve...
Now's your chance.
Pep Talk: Quick! Now’s your chance to live the way you want to. You can go with the flow, blaze a trail, whatever! There isn’t one perfect way to do things. If you have a misstep, we’ll get over it. You do the best that you can and I’ll do the best that I can and life will unfold the way it’s meant to.
Today remind yourself: Now’s my chance.
You can't forget how cool you are.
Pep Talk: Hey Sugarboots, have you patted yourself on the back lately? Let’s start this week off the right way with a load of lovin’ you. No matter what is headed your way, you’re flexible and accepting. If things start to feel unpleasant, you know this too shall pass. You’re bold and bright and rocking your personal style with a confident flair. I think you’re ready,...
Keep their negativity off your creativity.
Pep Talk: Sometimes people talk without thinking. They may shoot down your idea just so they can hear their own voice. That doesn’t mean your idea isn’t good, it just means that Chatty Cathy over here is pretty rude. If you are sick to death of people putting their negative shit on you, move out of their way. While they should bite their tongues for openly speculating on the demise of...
You plant the seed
Pep Talk: When you say something poignant or make a brilliant suggestion, it sticks in the mind. People may not immediately act upon your words, but the idea has been planted. Eventually, someone may come around and implement your suggestion and, with the knowledge you shared, totally improve their way of life. You’ll never know your full impact but, rest assured, it reverberates beyond your...
This is a wonderful time.
Pep Talk: You’re no stranger to counting your blessings. You’re well aware of how good you’ve got it. By virtue of being alive at this point in history, you get to benefit from rights and modern conveniences that past generations only dreamed of. With your kindness and considerate actions, you’re gradually improving conditions for future generations too.
Today remind...
You take Me Time with or without free time.
Pep Talk: Whether your schedule is fully booked or blissfully empty, you don’t have to run around like a crazy person today. Give yourself permission to have a full day, minus the tension. Try paying close attention to your breathing and, at any free chance you get, close your eyes and remember how grateful you are. You are capable of checking off some of your to do list without neglecting...
You support your candidate.
Pep Talk: There’s no rule that says you can’t vote for yourself. If you know you’re the best one for the job, definitely root root root for the home team! You’re qualified, cheerful, and sparkling with positive energy. If you don’t pick you, then I question your taste. Give yourself a vote of confidence.
Today remind yourself: I support my candidate.
Pretty people intimidate me.

Pretty people don’t think they are pretty.

You're back and better than ever.
Pep Talk: I’d like to take a moment to applaud you and how resilient you’ve proven yourself to be. Did you ever imagine you’d be able to survive all the things you have? You’ve come out of trying situations stronger and sharper than before. If times are tough now, you’re tougher. Underestimaters, be warned: you have no idea who you’re dealing with.
Today remind...
