July 10, 2023 ~ Monday Motivation ~ Face It Till You Make It!

I tell ya…I come across some gems! Because we have the technology that learns what you like to see in your feeds, I find myself being inundated with motivational quotes. #Okay #I’llTakeIt #LearnMeTechnology

Today’s post to my team was a gem that I think I will revisit often! Here goes…

Good Afternoon, Cookies!

Happy Monday!

I hope you had an amazing weekend!

Today’s quote speaks to my SOUL!

The more I sat with this quote, the more appreciation I had for the change in concept.  I have said and preached the fake it till you make it idea, and didn’t think twice about the messaging.  It was one of those sayings that I heard often, and didn’t question.  It was also one that I could tell myself over and over, but I always struggled with the fake part.  If I feel a certain way, my face and body will say it all. #IAmNotAGoodFaker  #ATALL This new idea of facing it instead, gave me permission to stop grinning and bearing it.

This quote also touches on failing, but not in a negative way.  Like we discuss in our team meetings, it isn’t about the failure, it’s about the recovery.  You have room to fail, recover, fail again, and recover stronger!  #FailFast  #FailOften  #FailSoYouCanSucceed  #YouGotThis!

I feel challenged…to change my way of thinking!  I feel motivated…to position myself to take on whatever is in front of me, and be real about it!  Then, I get to fail, dust myself off, and try again until I succeed!  And YOU get to do the same!  Can you imagine what we can take on if we do this as a team? 

I hope you’re ready!  We’ve got some facing it to do!

Have a FANTASTIC week!
