For me, inspiration comes with a rested mind….⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
…and the Fall and Holiday season means: weather changes, fashion changes, new recipes to try (*I mean eat), extra emphasis on family QT, a plethora of sports to watch on TV, great TV shows, travel, and various efforts to close out year end goals. All =ing: fatigue😣.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And that’s where I usually find myself. Fatigued. So because I know this, I decided to do something different. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I yielded to the pressure of trying to stay on top of everything —> focused on not being so hard on myself—> enjoy the things I love as they come during this season —> and ultimately resting. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And guess what? It’s been great. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Resting has allowed me time:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- for my “inspiration tank” to fill back up by,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- to genuinely take in what’s present around me and,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- to be more intentional about being in relation with my family and friends.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All it takes is a call, a text, a good laugh, or the sending of words of encouragement to be reminded that rest, relation, and inspiration are interconnected for me, and taking time to enjoy those I am connected with, is what really inspires me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So what inspires you during this time? I’d be curious to know. Share a comment in the comments section below❤️.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
