5 Ways to Master the Holidays

Truly embrace and enjoy the experience of the holidays by planning wisely, accounting for the unexpected as best you can, simplifying your to-do list, and making time to take care of yourself in some way every day. The best way to master the holidays is to change up your approach- be different. Take your time this year. No more running around, breaking a sweat, racing against the holiday clock. Plan ahead, start early, and do not rush but mosey your way through the holidays. Take the stress out of your days by working smarter, not harder: clear out your fridge to make room for the Tupperware to come, pre-prep side dishes, and make big, easy one-pot meals days before that can double for lunch or leftovers. Lastly, enjoy the season, mindfully. Be present living in the moment for every beautiful experience, and end the year with a satisfied spirit and a content heart. Creating a healthy balance between your to-do list and your for-you list is the important, but most of all, the key to mastering the holidays is to take stock of all the many things you have to be grateful for big and small, and your holidays will be mastered once and for all. ~For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey daily!

Feeling Stagnant? Get Unstuck...

Pray first. Then, count your blessings because gratitude and anxiety cannot share the same space. Now, prepare to shake things up. Take a trip. Take a drive. Take a walk or simply step outside. Close your eyes, and take a deep breath. Breathe in through your nose, out through your mouth so you can smell and taste the air. Focus on the beating of your own heart. That sweet rhythm... let it be a calm and steady reminder that your presence is important and your Being is enough. Then, intentionally create more joy every chance you get.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

Let Go Like Elsa

Know when it is time to cut ties with the the ignorant, the indecent, classless, dramatic, disrespectful, and the delusional- let them go. Let them be and fester amongst themselves. Refuse to give them the audience they crave. Know when you are above the fray, and act accordingly. Remain elevated. Remember that you are pragmatic, motivated, sophisticated, and celebrated among those that truly know you. Be dutifully at work on your greatness and betterment- be better and move on. ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me    @_TheAnswerKey  daily!

I.Y.K.Y.K.

They will always think what they want, and there is nothing you can do about it. Now, you be the judge. Judge for yourself. Look yourself in the mirror and answer to you. Everyone else's take is just their opinion. The ideas they have formed about who they think you are have nothing to do with you, who you are, or who you are becoming. Even for the people that matter, whose opinions you hope are positive and at the very least, pragmatic- they only know some of your depth. Even they can not attest to your every challenge, consideration, conquest, desire or fear. Speak for yourself and speak up. Make sure you get your attention, and get to the business of being someone you would speak highly of.  ~ For more positive posts stop by  fb.me/TheAnswerKey  & tweet me  @_TheAnswerKey  daily!
