Remember to pause and power down. I realized recently, that with the strength of technology comes some severe weakness. There is a knee jerk stress to being zapped and buzzed all the time. Take time to put the phone down, VERY intentionally. Watch what happens. You will be SHOCKED as the sense of peace you will experience when you aren’t distracted. Watch for distractions and try to eliminate as many as possible. This is a life changing thought and concept. But, go for it! It is SO worth it!

If only we could be, do and have it all. But, alas, we cannot. So, what is a perfectionistic, fabulous woman, who was TOLD she could have it all, do? GOOD QUESTION. I think this is the plague of the 21st century for women. It is EXHAUSTING and STUPIFYING how hard so many woman work to try and attain this unrealistic self portrait.
Am I really supposed to cook, clean, mother, wife, work, volunteer, plan my eating, exercise – because I need a hard butt, taxi, organize, manage a social life and get to watch LOST – is it still on?
I think the beauty is we can go for gold, but we must love and accept the silver in our lives. We can be, do and have it all. Just not at the same time. There is beauty in the flaws of life. There is laughter in our foibles – as there should be! There is hope for a brighter day, when there are clouds all around. There are always potential rainbows. And when we get a glimpse, it takes our breath away. That is what we need to remember, that we get rainbows when there is a MIX of rain and sun. And the MOST beautiful rainbows occurs against the backdrop of the darkest cloud.
A Princess Warrior is a sweet and salty mix of rain and sun. Celebrate both. Learn to see everything as a gift. And with the right mix of both, you can and will achieve beautiful and stunning things!
