Are you your Biggest Critic or Biggest Fan?

June 21, 2022

Hey Divas,

Sometimes we are our own Biggest Critic;

If anyone ever talked to us the way that we talk to ourselves we would not be friends with them.

So why do we hold such value on the opinions of people who do little to nothing for us, even people we don’t even know?

Like the saying goes everyone has an opinion like everyone has a ________ fill in the blank.

It’s just an opinion and it can change like the weather.

Take heart dear diva and be kind to yourself, the world is hard enough on us. 

We do not have to carry the weight of the world on our shoulders. 

However many of us, WE are carrying the weight of our lives.

  • The weight of all the pain.
  • The weight of all the hurt.
  • The weight of the forgotten dream.
  • The weight of the heart-break.
  • The weight of missed opportunity.
  • The weight of grief.
  • The weight of self hate.
  • The weight of being late because it takes everything in you to get out of the bed.
  • The weight of the diet that never actually starts on Monday.
  • The weight of giving up before even getting started.
  • The weight of never going swimming because your thighs jiggle and don’t like how you look in a bathing suit.
  • The weight of laughing and pointing jokes at yourself to take the focus off you.
  • The weight of saying that you are “ Good “ but feel like you’re dying from the inside out so you don’t have to do anything about it.
  • The weight of making ourselves a joke of every conversation to ease our anxiety.
  • The weight of success.
  • The weight of failure.
  • The weight of never enjoying the beach because of the stretch marks on your stomach and hips.
  • The weight of never being yourself.
  • The weight of trying to be the perfect daughter, sister, wife, partner, mother.
  • The weight of not letting go.
  • The weight of the pressure to look “ perfect “
  • The weight of hiding yourself from the fear of being real.
  • The weight of years of hating yourself through self-sabotage.
  • The weight of knowing in your heart of hearts that you are imperfect but perfectly you.
  • The weight of knowing you deserve better.
  • The weight of knowing your are enough and always have been.
  • The weight of surrounding yourself with people who have limited beliefs.
  • The weight of not being free.
  • The weight of not holding ourselves accountable.

The good news is we can turn this around; it’s never too late to become your very own Biggest Fan!

It’s never too late to be what you might have been. – George Elliot

How to create your 2022 Vision Board in 3 Easy Steps!

Hey Divas!

Welcoming Fall frfr. It’s been warmer than usual for us here in Vegas but that snippy chill factor came in over the weekend.

This time of year l spend as a wind down and making preparations for the year ahead. The past couple of years have been short of madness. Coming out of the most horrible experience of my life has left me changed. A new person a better diva.

Emotional scars are the worst because unlike a broken bone you can’t see that you’ve healed you have to believe it and do the real work. The painful uncomfortable work of facing yourself and owning your ish. We can’t choose the cards life has dealt us but we can play TF out of our deck.

So with all this said going into a New Year in less than two months. I’m thinking about what l truly want out of this year. Creating a vision board has helped me over the years even the years l didn’t have the energy to cut and clip images l wrote it down and it still worked!

It’s a simple process but not easy. You may have screen shots or images in your phone of what your desires are IG is a great place to start as well. Magazines are old school but are great if you have them and know that google images is your new found BFF!

Creating your 2022 Vision in 3 Easy Steps

1. Set some goals using S.M.A.R.T formula. It needs to be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and a time frame deadline for the goal to be reached.

Find images that reflect these goals. You can set goals in any area of your life but for the purpose of Fly By July we focus on Health & Fitness so this is a great place to start of you’re not sure what you want right now. Nothing in life can be achieved or is sustainable without our health.

2. Find a recent photo of yourself in a Happy moment.Think of how these goals will make you feel find words and quotes that affirm your feelings.

3. Think of possessions you want to own related to goals from STEP 1. Collect all the images and paste to board, scrap book paper, digital, etc. lf you do go digital be sure to print it out to display in a place where you will see it regularly or use as screen saver.

Keep it simple. Keep it clean. Keep it Inspirational. All you need is scrap book paper scissors and glue. I prefer rubber cement and scrapbook paper so that l can put it in a book. Digital is an option as well you can pin a board in Pinterest or save image to your screen saver where it can be seen frequently.

I challenge you this week to sit down and write down your goals and collect images to make your vision board! Let’s see your 2022 dear diva!
