61 Days (and 3 questions)

Life on auto-pilot. Days go by. Months go by. Years go by and even though everything changes, nothing changes - unless you’re intentional. When was the last time you stopped and asked yourself: Am I happy? Am I doing what makes me come alive? Am I living life to where if today was my last day, I’d have zero regrets?

My goal in life is to regret nothing. My purpose is to inspire others to find their worth and actively live their best lives.

Have you heard of the Winter Arc challenge? I just heard about it. It started October 1 and it spans the last 90 days of the year. It’s about diving into yourself (and/or your relationship) and really soul searching. Well it’s Oct 31, so we’re late. Instead of skipping it, let’s do a shorter version. 61 day challenge to wake up! Starting tomorrow, change something, do something different, do something you’ve always wanted to do, get up 1/2 an hour early, meditate or walk a 1/2 mile. Go to bed an hour later, but for the last hour, no TV, no media, go off the grid. Talk to your spouse, your children, or your parents. Power down the socials and power up being PERSONAL. Even though you are alive and living, are you really ALIVE AND LIVING? Ask the following 3 questions. Aim the questions at yourself for the first 30 days, then aim them at your relationships the second 31 days.

1. What are you investing in?

2. What kind of teammate are you?

3. What kind of energy do you bring?

The first question, what are you investing in? Personally, are you investing in a relationship with yourself? What is your self-worth like? For me, I thought I was doing great at self-worth, but when I actually dug a bit deeper, I was not investing in my worth properly. I was better at giving advice to others than I was at taking my own advice. Invest in yourself is asking questions like: Am I happy? Am I on autopilot? If you aren’t doing things that make you happy, why are you doing them? Obligation? Lack of self-worth? Do you even have a relationship with yourself, or are you focused 100% on others? Take the next 30 days and focus on yourself, on your worth, and what you’re investing in yourself. After you go through the first 30 days, the next 31 days ask yourself the same question but what are you investing in others (spouse, relationships, children, work, parents, etc.).

The second question is similar to the first; but ask yourself personally, are you a good teammate to yourself? Do you support yourself, listen to yourself, spend time with yourself, and are you growing each day? Are you setting goals and accomplishing them? Are you being genuine to yourself? Do you even know what being genuine to yourself means? Find out! In 10 years what are you going to wish you started today? Why aren't you starting that today? What are you waiting for? How can you be a better teammate to yourself? After you go through the first 30 days, the next 31 days ask yourself if you are a good teammate to others (spouse, relationships, children, work, parents, etc.).

The third question, what kind of energy do you bring? Are you a positive influence or a down in the dumps kind of person? How do you talk to yourself? Are you negative or positive? Do you see things as opportunities or hurdles? What is your mindset? Is it growth and abundance or more about what you lack? Kick up your energy, turn up your frequency, be positive, be a light, change your thoughts and see your life change too! What energy are you putting out there?! After you go through the first 30 days, the next 31 days ask yourself the same question but what kind of energy are you bringing to others (spouse, relationships, children, work, parents, etc.).

I challenge you to get off autopilot. Remember my mom used to say: life is change, growth is optional. Take the next 61 days and make your life about you, then make it about who you love.

There is a very special person inside of you, waiting to be noticed. Connect, appreciate, and find your worth. Then, connect with the ones you love, appreciate them, and show them what they are worth to you!

Love always,

Happy Amy
