      <image:title>My Writing - Just be you...</image:title>
      <image:caption>So I did a thing today, I sent some of my writing out to a group of friends at work, talk about a little nerve wracking… like putting your personal thoughts out there for all to read. Don’t get me wrong, I love them all dearly and I know the love me just the same but I guess the thing that I am most anxious about is them thinking that I am not a good writer or will think it's just silly or them thinking that I have it all figured out because I DON’T. I guess those are just really my own fears and insecurities coming through and they really have nothing to do with other people at all…  because I say I don’t really care what people think of me but we all know that deep down we all actually really do care what people think. So, today I stepped, alright jumped, right into that fear and it sort of felt empowering… maybe. I am not the best at the whole vulnerability thing, I actually kind of hate it because for some insane reason I think that I have to have it all together which, I have to remind myself is the biggest lie there is going. Because me not having it all together is so much more relatable. But, my friend I am working on it, working on coming to the somewhat silly conclusion that I can’t do it all alone, ha, who knew LOL but believe me I certainly have given it quite the try.  I need people all up in my life… letting them in to this oh so loved mess. So, I tell myself “Rachael, just be you, the messy, insanely loved, strong, gracious, women you were created to be because trying to function in anything else would just be putting on a big ugly mask that doesn’t relate to those around you”. I put that in quotations because even though it sounds so ridiculous I literally say that to myself sometimes even out loud… I know I am that girl, gotta do whatcha gotta do!   Are you like me on many days trying to function out of something that isn’t really you?  What mask do you put on to try and fit in, or fit a certain mold that society has placed on you? When we compare ourselves to others around us it steels all of the joy right out of life. Sweet friend, if I can encourage you in anything today just be you. You were created for something great, something great that only you can do. The world is missing out because you are trying to be something you are not. Stop trying to be someone else, stop comparing your greatness to someone else’s. Just be you and be so great at it!</image:caption>

      <image:title>My Writing - What are you thinking about?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Did you know you have the ability to think about what you are thinking about. I was probably well into my 20’s before I realized that, that I control the thoughts that I let take root in my mind. Why on earth I didn’t realize that before is a little funny and a tad bit mind boggling… but I am sure glad I realized it. I am not saying that I am perfect at this, heck I am actually not all that good at it but that little reminder in the back of my head “hey Rach, you don’t have to dwell on that” sometimes is the catalyst that gets me out of my terrible thoughts or my self proclaimed pity party full of all the brownies, wine and chips and salsa a girl can eat lol… okay, so my pity parties don’t really entail all of that but you get the point! So, today when I woke up I made the choice that this was going to be a good day no matter the circumstances that happened to me… does that mean I am going to have a perfect day, I don’t know, maybe… maybe not, but I do know that I have the choice of  what I set my mind on. Today I am making the choice to dwell on the things that are lovely, things that are pure, things that are kind, gentle, positive, up lifting, peaceful, things that are excellent and when I do that I know I have a way better chance of staying on the positive side of things instead of completely falling in the ditch of “everything's awful and my life sucks”.   Today I GET to choose what I let sit in my head and have power over me. So, what thoughts do you need to take control of today instead of those thoughts taking control of you?   Here are a few things I use to help set my mind: 1. Stop and recognize what I am actually thinking about 2. Think about what you are thinking about 3. I have reminders written on my bathroom mirror that I read every morning to remind  me of where I should focus my thoughts 4. I choose that today will be a good day 5. I remind myself I have what it takes to do everything I am called to do today 6. Give myself grace when I get stuck in a ditch of negative thinking 7. I recite scripture that I have memorized 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God,which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Phil 4:6-7</image:caption>

      <image:title>My Writing - Just Say YES....</image:title>
      <image:caption>Just say yes! If only it were that easy, huh? I can not begin to tell you the number of times I have said yes with all of the best intentions but zero follow through… and you know who I used to do that to more than anyone else. Myself. I would say yes to exercising 5 days a week, yes to spending more time on my business, yes to eating better, yes to being better in my budget, yes to some committee at work because Lord knows I can’t stand not being in the know LOL… and would stretch myself so thin that I would either try to be wonder women and halfway do what I promised myself I would do or I would end up just quitting all together. But friend it doesn’t have to be that way.   I am learning that the last person I need to quit on is me. I need to say yes to me, that when I make promises to myself that I keep them because I am worth it. Instead of striving for constant perfection I am learning to give myself some grace, that I don’t have to do it all right all the time and when I don’t I just get back up and start again, a lot lol…. So, my friend, stop quitting on you, your goals, your dreams, your wants and desires. Stop striving for perfection and just keep moving. You’ve got this, you've got what it takes to be the best you because everyone else deserves the best you.  Quit quitting on you and keep that promise you made to yourself because you are worth it. I promise that one day you will look back and be amazed at all you have accomplished if you just say YES to you!</image:caption>

      <image:title>My Writing - My Tribe!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Community. There's something about that word that either makes you smile, like one of those super cheesy all the teeth smiles, or like I used to be and think “i've got this, I don’t need people” no clue were I took on the idea that I had to do it all alone but for some reason I had…  And boy was I ever wrong. Not that I didn’t have friends, I mean really good friends but friendships that were really pretty surface level. Nothing ever got super deep, I mean we had plenty of convo’s about who we were dating or hoped to be dating, what the plans were for the weekend, maybe a few about our hopes for the future but nothing ever really got to “that level” very often if you know what I mean… until something major happened. Like one of those moments in life were you literally can’t breath moments, something that never in your wildest imagination would you ever think you would be going through. Something that has literally changed my life forever… but can I tell you that if it wasn’t for the people in my life to come alongside and carry me, I mean like literally help me pick up the pieces of my life that had just been blown apart by what felt like an atomic bomb in my life I don’t know where I would be.   I call them my tribe…and oh do I love them so!!! They are those people you can call at any time day or night, those you can cry with or laugh until you cry with. Those that cheer you on so hard, like high school cheerleader at the the state championship football game that is in overtime type, and that aren’t afraid to call you on your crap. Those that remind you of who you are, whose you are and your overwhelming worth in this world. Those that pray for you, pray with you, that listen to you, that support your crazy ideas, that push you to be a better version of yourself, that talk some sense into you when you are stuck in your head and can’t seem to find your way out okay, maybe that's just me lol…  I can say with every ounce of my being that I desperately need people in my life and so do you. And I am not just talking about those people that you hang out with every once in a while but those that know you, I mean that really know you! Letting people in has been one of the most humbling but most life giving things I have ever done. My friend, if you don’t have a tribe find one, and if you can’t find one then I would love to be that for you because doing life alone is not nearly as rich and beautiful! Don’t be like I was for song long and act like you've “got it” all the time… invite those people in, like really let them in and love them and love them well because trust me, my friend, it is SO worth it!     “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17  </image:caption>
