I Broke A Nail...My Life Is Over!

How has this year been for you so far? Good? Bad? Ugly? Beautiful? Maybe 2015 has been a little bit of all of thee above. Well, guess what? You are not alone! 2015 has been a bit of everything for me and more! I am not surprised. Why, you ask? Because that’s what life is all about. If every single day was full of pain that would suck but thankfully it’s not. We have good and great days mixed in. I heard someone once say that it’s those bad days that help us appreciate the good ones. I guess there is some truth to that. HOWEVER I prefer great days over the sucky ones.

What constitutes a “sucky day” for you? Do you consider rain and clouds a bad day? When your hair is a mess and just won’t cooperate; do you consider that a “horrible day?” What about you breaking a nail? If you think about it, there are a lot of dumb things that happen to us that we allow to ruin our WHOLE day!

But wait a minute! Rewind! Pause! Stop the press! We are confident girls! HELLOOOO!!! We don’t allow little dumb things to knock us off our game!

Are you serious right now? Are you really going to allow the weather transform you into Oscar the Grouch? Are you really going to allow one hair that is out of place to make you frown ALL DAY? Ok, you broke a nail. It is not the end of the world. Get a band-aid, kiss it and keep it moving. Life is too short and worth so much more than the little DUMB things we obsess over.

As confident girls we think differently. We don’t see broken nails, weather and hair as things that make us have bad days. We see things from God’s perspective. Our eyes aren’t focused on ourselves ALL THE TIME. We look up to God and are concerned about heavenly things. We are concerned about others and what God wants to do through us! (Colossians 3:2)

It’s ok to pay attention to yourself. You have to! But don’t allow you paying attention to yourself turn into conceit. NEWS FLASH! The world does not revolve around you, or me.  

Make the choice to have a GREAT DAY, NO MATTER WHAT!

XOXO,

Cherise
