Hello friends and family!
I am excited about this magic that I am about to reveal to you. Scroll down and see who the inspiring person is, okay wait ...no,
scroll down and then come back here!
Now that you are back, hello and welcome
to the new subscribers. Thank you for joining us on this weekly adventure for a
Dose of Inspiration
and tips to
Create A Life You Love and Go Live It
.
The theme of this week is the YOU.
It takes a lifetime to know who you really are...and when you finally figure out who you are at a certain point, it all changes and you need to redefine yourself.
Take Covid for instance. This one moment in history has resulted in a global shift with everyone. We all had to pivot our lives, change our plans, our routines, our mindsets about things...we all changed,
did you notice it
?
Have you taken the time to think about how you have changed over this last year?
Besides washing your hands constantly...how have you changed when it comes to...
Your day-to-day routine, do you take the morning slow or are you rushing to start your day? Has this changed?
What about your friends and family? Are you checking in or being checked in on?
Your food and health? With a pandemic going on, did you commit to living a healthier lifestyle?
What about your hopes for the future? Your plans for life? I know the idea of traveling outside of Maylasia is out of my mind for now. (A box I do not open to thinking too often about)
One Step Further ...An exercise for the brave!
Make a list of all the different areas of you and your life.
Add things like, my mind, my routine, my friendships, my finance...
Go deeper... my thoughts on this pandemic, my thoughts on my future, my thoughts on life and living...
Extend your list into all aspects of you and things you care about.
Now unpack it.
Before Covid, I was obsessed with salsa and my decisions were based on salsa.
Now, thanks to Covid, I don't have salsa but I have the time to try other hobbies like rollerblading. I would have never wanted to do it before because I did not want to get injured before a congress or dance weekend.
This
little exercise
might surprise you with moments of gratitude for the changes in your life or might shock you to see how you have changed.
Remember each week, we are just moving one tiny step forward to creating a life you love.
The most Authentic and Inspiring person on earth (to me...)
Meet
Billy Porter.
There are too many words to describe him so I will let you find out who he is on your own.
"My goal is to be a human being and honor all of who I am! Sometimes I’m more feminine than masculine. Sometimes I’m more masculine than feminine and I love all of those parts of myself."

Let's try, just for a week, to be our authentic selves!Forget what the world and society expect from you. Release the pressure and Just be you!Be your authentic self. Try it for a week!
I gave up trying to please the world a long time ago and it's the most freeing experience.
Artists Who Inspire
Artist: Yadi Liu
A fun artist .....a breath of fresh air for your March energy. I love that she draws inspiration from Freud's theory, which suggests one’s psyche can be divided into id and ego.
Combining this with her own introspection into her life and emotions, she creates these pieces. She has 10 pieces under the collection called Mute Chaos. I want all of them :)
Click on the links below to check out her work.
Sidenote ...if this little Newsletter is not needed in your 2021, you can unsubscribe by clicking the unsubscribe from this list link at the bottom of this email. No hard feelings :)
Song of the week
Why deviate from the super talented Billy Porter? Here is more of his magic! This is a time he is mixed in with a few more legends ....enjoy!Also if you haven't yet, go watch POSE, it's more than entertaining. You can see the trailer HERE. For this week, enjoy this song in your own way. Get up and dance if it makes you want to move, chill and soak it in if this feels better. Love this song in your own special way.
In case you don't have Spotify, HERE is the Youtube link to it. (Brian you don't have to Google it this week.)
"We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty."
