The past two weeks I personally was living with one single drop in my cup. I was barely pushing through, but this weekend allowed me to pause and really appreciate what helped me push through last week.
I just wanted to take a second and share 3 things that I did this weekend to fill my cup back up. I am so beyond ready for this week with a full cup and a full heart thanks to these things!
- Compliment yourself, not just in your thoughts. Whether it is on paper, or out loud give yourself an honest compliment. In general, we spend way too much time tearing a part our imperfections, and not enough time appreciating what makes us awesome!
- Make a list of what makes you feel genuinely happy, and then go do at least one thing on that list. Society often distorts our views of what truly makes us happy. We are told what should make us happy whether it is a baby, a significant other, money, etc, but then asked a million questions when we feel that something that makes us happy is out of the norm. You are in control of your own happiness! Even if it is for 5 minutes, pick one thing from your list, and go do it. You will thank yourself later!
- Do something nice for someone else. Take a second to find someone in your life that needs some love. Whether it is a hug, offering to talk, or holding a door, the reality of the situation is helping people makes us feel good too! It is a win win situation. You get to make someone else feel good while also filling your cup up. Volunteering is also another wonderful option! 🙂
Your cup does not have to remain empty, and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. All you can do is start somewhere to get the positivity flowing back into your cup!
Thank you all for your love and continued support!!
