Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Although writing is my passion, I sometimes struggle with scheduling time to write and getting the words to flow from mind on to paper. I often ask myself why writing is so hard to do sometimes even though it’s an important way for me to express myself and to encourage other writers to do the same.

Whether it’s inspiring blog content, an inspirational essay or chapters in a book, always start your writing sessions with clear and concise writing goals.

My current writing goals for 2023:

To provide inspirational and uplifting blog content.
To provide helpful resources to my email list.
To organize my thoughts and feelings during my daily journal writing.
To write and self-publish at least two more journals and one E-Book.

RISE ABOVE WRITING CHALLENGES

You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have. – Maya Angelou

Before we can address how to rise above writing challenges, it’s important to discuss the reasons why people love to write in the first place. As Maya Angelou once wrote, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you.” Some people have found the courage to share their stories of hope and encouragement with others to help them overcome various challenges in life. Writing can also help you to:

Inspire, encourage and motivate others to do something
Teach and establish expertise in a specific area
Share ideas and your passion for writing
Cope with life and its many challenges
Express yourself and share creative writing with others
Make money by selling your own books and products
Expand your knowledge base and research

Often times people live a life full of disappointment, unhappiness, and heartache. I believe that it’s the writer’s responsibility to show people their inner potential and ability to create happiness in life. In addition, the writer’s words can help people change their lifestyles and encourage them to grow from within.

Here’s some productive ways to rise above writing challenges:

Change your mindset – You must believe in yourself and stop the negative self-talk. Instead, build yourself up by reciting positive quotes and affirmations.
Create a writing schedule – Prioritize your writing time and create a writing schedule that you can stick to. However, be kind and provide yourself some grace when you need a break.
Turn off your inner critic – Give yourself permission to write freely and know that it’s okay to make mistakes. You have no time for self-doubt or fear, but instead encourage yourself often.
Join writer’s groups or find an accountability partner – There’s something powerful about being around like-minded individuals. Check your social media accounts for interested writers who are willing to be your accountability writing partner.
Regular journal writing – Regular journal writing can help improve your overall writing skills. In addition, journal writing can provide you with additional writing topics as well.

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR MINDSET

A mind troubled by doubt cannot focus on the course to victory. – Arthur Golden

As you set yourself up for success throughout your writing journey, focus on how you plan to change your mindset by doing the following:

Embrace positive thoughts which equal to positive outcomes.
Admit that your thinking needs to be adjusted at times.
Seek positive support from family, friends, and support groups.
Immerse yourself in personal growth – Read inspirational books or listen to motivational podcasts.
Forward thinking will move your focus away from where you don’t want to be to where you could be.
Take mini breaks from social media and focus on self-care.

AFFIRMATIONS

Write like it matters, and it will. – Libba Bray

Affirmations will help you to focus on improving yourself. You can spend 5 – 10 minutes in meditation, journaling, or yoga with mantras. Self-love, positivity, open-mindedness, help set you in the right direction. Designate a time in the morning and at night when you can recite affirmations aloud. By saying them aloud, you hear the powerful words, and it can help you internalize them as true. The key to seeing a positive change in life is to say the affirmations with conviction and make it a personal experience.

Here’s a few of my favorite affirmations to help you get started:

Today is full of possibilities.
I am open to inspiration and creativity.
My writing persists no matter what is happening around me.
I am powerful, fearless, wise, and humble.
There are no limits to what I can achieve.
I am grateful for all the new experiences.
Difficult times are temporary, and I will become stronger from them.
I am allowed to be bold and take up space.

I have really enjoyed my blogging experience and the time spent writing my journals. I have met so many wonderful and talented bloggers/authors along my writing journey. Although writing has helped me stay grounded in my life, inspiring people has got to be one of the most rewarding parts for being a writer. Today, I encourage you to acknowledge your temporary setbacks and keep rising above your writing challenges. Only this kind of persistence will allow you to pour your heart and soul into your written work. Peace, blessings, and happy writing!

JOURNAL PROMPTS

To gain your own voice, you have to forget about having it heard. – Allen Ginsberg

Journaling is a powerful way to process events in your life, build self-awareness, get more clarity, and keep yourself on track. Journaling also allows for past reflection, future insight, and present surrender. Keep in mind that this is a journey and be patient with yourself. Ready, set, write!

What inspires you to write, blog, and be creative?
What are your short-term and long-term writing goals?
How have you been getting in the way of achieving of your writing goals?
What makes you proud of yourself right now in this very moment?
How do you respond to setbacks and failure?
What is one negative behavior you need to let go this year?
What is keeping you from changing your mindset?
How do you plan to keep your positive and uplifting mindset?

Let’s Talk. Whether you are ready to admit it or not, you’re able to rise above writing challenges. Why do you enjoy writing? How long have you been writing? What are some of your writing goals? What are some helpful tips you can share with new writers? I would love to hear from you. Share your thoughts/answers in the comment section.

Thought to Ponder – Every day you wake up should be a fresh start on your life’s journey.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! This evening I pause to bless this special day that is a beautiful gift from God. Today, I am celebrating my 49^th birthday. What better way to celebrate my life’s journey than to ask you to complete a brief survey so I can become more engaged with you in 2023? In addition, your name will go into a drawing to win a copy of my Renew Inspiration Journal that can also be purchased via amazon.com.

Here’s the survey link:

https://forms.gle/mQtzmragA4udomED7

Please be so kind and submit your responses by Friday, December 23, 2022. I will announce the winner in a blog post during the last week in December.

Although there are many ways to navigate life’s journey, it’s important to pause and spend quality time practicing personal reflection. Before reading any further, take a moment to read and answer the following reflection questions:

What are you passionate about in life?
How do you navigate in life when obstacles occur?
How do you set or reset the direction of your life?

WAYS TO NAVIGATE LIFE’S JOURNEY

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. – Lao Tzu

Today, right in this present moment, I want to take time to reflect on how to navigate life’s journey. I honestly look at where I am today, and I look at how I came to be here. I acknowledge the darkness and the light that shines within. Each day I focus on my vision of positive changes that I need to make in my life so that I may heal and grow in the most beautiful way possible.

Here’s some great ways to help you navigate life’s journey:

Every day do something that will lead you closer to God. (Read & Study God’s Word, Pray, Meditate or Listen to Gospel Music)
Thrive on happiness, a calm mind, and good health. (Reading, Journaling, Exercising, Walking in Nature, Practice Meditation or Listening to an Inspirational Podcast)
Have faith, be courageous, and dream big. (Keep Believing, Trusting, and Hoping)
Strive for greatness and embrace change along the way. (Be Your Own Inspiration, Be Flexible, and Open Minded)
Don’t procrastinate. Think positive and plan ahead. (Observe Everything Around You, Stay Focused, and Create a Vision for Your Life)
Love to no end, be grateful, choose joy and be kind. (Spread Love to Others, Nurture Your Grateful Heart, and Throw Kindness Around Like Confetti)
Be strong enough to let go and wise enough to wait for what you deserve. (Show Strength, Courage, and Wisdom)

Now, this will not be an easy task, but it is a necessary one for you to grow into your better self. However, I do realize this journey has no rules, no right or wrong answers. I accept my journey for what it is, and I acknowledge that only I can do my healing work. Don’t be afraid to make this process personal.

Your mind is a garden. Your thoughts are the seeds. You can grow flowers, or you can grow weeds. – Unknown Author

Next, in order for you to embrace this new way of thinking and living, it is important for you to feed your spirit with positive affirmations on a daily basis. For example, I choose to feel good about myself and life’s journey each day. Even when I am feeling sad or depressed, deep inside I aspire to be a giver. A giver of life, a giver of good vibes, and a giver of strength. This kind of thinking will help you overcome life’s challenges and help you navigate life’s journey.

Here’s a few positive affirmations and a pep talk I would love to share with you:

I am blessed and in charge of my life.
I am proud of who I am – limitless, brave, and beautiful.
I embrace respect, love, and kindness.
I am fearless and capable of so much more.
I am bold, strong, and free to make my own choices.
I have the power to create all the change I want to see.
I am enough and perfect just the way I am.
I am happy today, tomorrow, and every day of my life.
I heal from every pain, hurt, and disappointment.

7 Simple Steps To Improve Self-Control

Renew Inspiration, Improve Self-Control, Goals — Renew Inspiration

Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power. – James Allen

Affiliate Disclaimer: This site contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you purchase through any of the links (at no additional cost to you).

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Let’s start August with a new way of thinking and make a plan to set some new goals. For example, self-improvement goals are always a great choice. Who doesn’t want to improve their life in some way or another, right? I would love to start this month’s discussion on learning how to improve self-control. Did you know that research has shown that possessing self-control can be important for your overall health and well-being? Believe it or not, it’s important to require some level of self-control if you plan to:

Exercise regularly
Lose weight
Eat healthier
Stop procrastinating
Give up unhealthy habits
Save money
Maintain healthy relationships
Learn how to create a healthy work/life balance

This list can go on and on, but we’re going to move right into the definitions so we can have a clear understanding of what self-control really is.

DEFINITIONS

If you learn self-control, you can master anything. – Unknown Author

When ever I decide to write about a topic, I spend a lot of time understanding the definitions and any words that are related to the topic. So, let’s get started.

Self-control (noun) can be defined as:

The ability to regulate and alter your responses in order to avoid undesirable behaviors, increase desirable ones, and achieve long-term goals.

Here’s some words that come to mind when you think about self-control:

Discipline (noun) – the practice of training people to obey rules or a code of behavior, using punishment to correct disobedience. (control) (regulation)
Determination (noun) – firmness of purpose; resoluteness. (resolution)(resolve)
Grit (noun) – courage and resolve; strength of character. (courage)
Willpower (noun) – control exerted to do something or restrain impulses. (determination)
Fortitude (noun) – courage in pain or adversity. (courage)(bravery)

7 SIMPLE STEPS TO IMPROVE SELF-CONTROL

Mastering self-control, the act of restraining one’s emotions is the true key to success. – Timothy Pina

Now, that we have a better understanding of what self-control is, it’s time to discuss the 7 simple steps to improve self-control in your life. Improving self-control has a lot to do with knowing who you are and understanding your personal interests as well as your own thought patterns.

Here’s 7 simple steps to improve self-control in your life:

#1 – Know Your True Self

When working to make any sort of change in your life, it’s important to know your true self. Begin to dig deep down inside and find out why you want to change in the first place. The best way to do this is to set aside quiet time for yourself every day to pray, meditate, and to recite positive mantras/affirmations.

#2 – Reconcile Your Past & Forgive Yourself

Even though we’ve all experienced hurt and pain in our past, it doesn’t mean we have to live with it in our present life. You’ll never know your true peace until you let go of feelings, such as insecurity, guilt, anger, and shame. Then, forgive yourself for past mistakes you’ve made and focus on the present.

#3 – Prioritize Your Life

In order to prioritize your life, you must have a written record of what’s important for you on a daily basis. Create a daily to-do list with your top 3 to 5 things that you want to get done. Always use this list as a guide, but also be flexible with yourself if you need to make changes throughout the day.

#4 – Remove Temptation

Removing temptation from your life is easier said than done. However, it’s an important step to making self-control a reality. When you remove temptation from your presence, you set yourself up for success by managing yourself and your surroundings.

#5 – Manage Stressful Situations

Learning how to manage stress in healthy ways ensures you have the positive energy to keep pressing forward during life’s most challenging times. Let’s face it, situations in our lives cause us to feel stress sometimes, but we have to learn how to not react in a negative way. Take a quick break and go walk outside.

#6 – Practice Mindfulness

Mindfulness is probably the fastest way to see ourselves through the eyes of others. You will learn how to observe the finer details in life and live in the present moment. You will gain a greater appreciation for not only yourself, but for those who are around you. Compliment others and notice the difference it makes in the moment.

#7 – Measure Your Progress

Like anything in life, it’s important to measure your progress. This will keep you focused on your goals, allow you to become an expert on your own behavior, and it makes habits less difficult to change. You can keep a journal or invest in a smart watch/phone to track your progress for various goals.

Believe in yourself, be patient, and always show yourself compassion. Be mindful of how you affect yourself with your daily choices, and you will be inspired to improve your self-control. My challenge for you today is to gain greater self-control by setting realistic goals for yourself. Then, determine what works and don’t work for you. Make the necessary adjustments and you’ll be on your way to conquering the concept of self-control.

How to Embrace the Renewal Process Within

Renewal and restoration are not luxuries, they are essentials. – Chuck Swindoll

Affiliate Disclaimer: This site contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you purchase through any of the links (at no additional cost to you).

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! I pray that your week has been filled with love, peace, joy, and happiness. Today, I want to focus on an important topic – How to Embrace the Renewal Process Within. I encourage you to have your journal or a notebook and something to write with.

Now, tell me what is your breaking point? When do you just STOP and take a rest? When do you say “No” to others because you already have too much on your agenda? Believe it or not, most people do not acknowledge when they are overwhelmed and tired. Most of us just keep going and going until we are exhausted and burned out. This is not a healthy choice at all.

Let’s begin to embrace the renewal process by answering a few questions:

What do I want or need in my life right now in this very moment?
Are my actions guided by love or fear? faith or worry? courage or doubt?
Will this action bring peace or inner turmoil in my life?

When you take time to answer questions related to your life honestly, you will find out what’s important enough for you to pursue and what to ignore.

POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS

Renewal is what happens when you realize that some of this stuff you’ve been carrying around doesn’t matter. – Rob Bell

Next, I want you to begin using positive affirmations every day to help renew your mind, body, and spirit. Positive affirmations will help you to attract more positivity in your life and transform your thoughts. It’s important to repeat the following positive affirmations daily until they are hidden in your heart.

Here’s a few positive affirmations to help you get started:

I am beautifully made.
I am filled with gratitude.
I am worthy of great things.
I am confident and empowered.
I am surrounded by love.
I am learning and growing.
I am in charge of my own self-worth.

ADVANTAGES IN LIFE

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances. – Maya Angelou

As we go through life, it is important to realize when it is time for our renewal process to occur. Allowing time for renewal offers one so many advantages in life. For example, a person who chooses to embrace the renewal process may experience:

Personal growth and expansion from the inside out.
A fresh start to something that will be much better, and in most cases, greater than what they were already experiencing.
The ability to make necessary plans and allows their mind to think of resolutions that need to take place.
Time to rest from the day-to-day hustle and bustle of life, which can interpret to self-reflection.
An opportunity to transform one’s mind and body to a more refreshed state.

CLICK HERE to get your FREE Journal Prompts download that will help you embrace the renewal process within!

In addition, I’ve provided some ways for you to spend quality time during the renewal process.

You can refresh your mind daily if you choose to:

Meditate
Read a motivational book/quotes
Learn a new skill
Take a mindful walk
Listen to a positive podcast
Stay off social media
Create a vision board

You can revive your energy if you:

Exercise

Get some sun
Rest

You can rekindle your soul if you:

Read God’s Word
Pray and meditate
Spend a day in nature
Listen to spiritual music
Start a gratitude journal
Count your blessings
Read a spiritual/inspirational book

Finally, I encourage you today to really think about your personal journey and how important it is to make time to embrace the renewal process within. Keep honoring God with your life, stay in peace, trust his timing, and God will open doors that no man can shut.

Affiliate Disclaimer: This site contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you purchase through any of the links (at no additional cost to you).

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Today, let’s talk about how affirmations can improve your life. To begin with, the word affirmation comes from the Latin affirmare, which means “to strengthen and make steady.” Affirmations are meant to help change your thoughts and move your attention to more empowering ideas that will ultimately create an improved result. Affirmations can be another form of positive self-talk that can:

• Help set the tone for your day.
• Be used to target and improve any area of your life.
• Help you overcome any negative thinking patterns.
• Provide a reflection of the kind of life you want to live.
• Offer ways to improve your mood and emotions.
• Increase your self-confidence and uplift your spirit.
• Help you set realistic goals and create a plan to reach them.

Simply put, when used consistently, affirmations have the power to transform lives despite what you’re going through.

9 WAYS AFFIRMATIONS CAN IMPROVE YOUR LIFE

Talk to yourself like someone you love. – Brene Brown

In order to receive the most benefits of reciting affirmations, it’s important for you to read and recite them aloud. Then, state them in the present tense as if they have already been accomplished. This process will make your mind believe that it’s already happening. Repetition is key. The more you say it, the more you may believe it. Affirmations can improve your life by:

1. Increasing self-awareness so you can acknowledge your daily thoughts and feelings.
2. Allowing you to become more grateful in any situation you are faced with.
3. Keeping you encouraged and more motivated to accomplish personal goals.
4. Helping you be in the present moment not worrying about the past or the future.
5. Teaching you how to be more open to new possibilities; not afraid to take risks.
6. Helping you to manage your feelings and emotions under stressful situations.
7. Reminding you to pay attention to your thought patterns.
8. Keeping you calm and at peace.
9. Helping you become more aware of what you want and your mind helps you get it.

During this process, focus on finding solutions and learning how to make positive changes in all areas of your life. After all, taking the time to recite affirmations daily can be the start of transforming your life.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! This morning I pause to bless this special day that is a beautiful gift from God. Today, I am celebrating my 47^th birthday. Now, what better way to celebrate my life’s journey than to write an inspirational blog post just for you.

After all, every day we wake up it should be a fresh start. If we are honest with ourselves, we have to admit that this year has been really tough on all of us, but especially those who have lost loved ones due to covid-19. I am so sorry for your loss. I could not imagine what those families are going through right now, but I do know that the holidays are especially difficult when you are grieving. Unfortunately, I lost my mother on December 19, 2015 so I relive this sense of sadness and grief during the holidays just like it happened yesterday.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! So glad you have returned for more uplifting inspiration that comes from within. Let’s take a moment and visualize your life as you want it to be. Go to a quiet, private environment for at least 15 minutes every day where you can close your eyes and imagine your body, environment, relationships, and life in ways that please you. This is the moment where you must find a way to separate yourself from all of the past in order to be what you want to be. Then, you will be able to embrace your personal journey one step at a time and truly know you are enough.

WAYS TO RESTORE YOUR MIND, BODY & SPIRIT

Strength grows in the moments when you think you can’t go on but you keep going anyway. – Unknown Author

In addition, it’s important to realize that you have the power to cultivate positive energy within your body in any given moment. Yes, even when you are exhausted, burned out and feel like you’ve got nothing left to give, your body can guide you to a peaceful place of greater vitality, inner strength and well-being.

Here’s some great ways to help restore your mind, body & spirit:

Rest when your body says rest. When you listen to your body and give yourself the rest you need, you’ll rebuild your energy over the long-term.
Cultivate stillness within you. Allow yourself to feel the stillness around you, letting it soak into your body.
Practice whole-body breathing. Feel your breath inside your body and notice how far it reaches within you.
Nourish your body wholeheartedly. Be conscious and heartfelt in how you nourish your body by choosing healthy foods that feel inherently good for you.
Explore gentle and restorative movement. Light walking, stretching, yoga can help you regain energy in your body and life.
Have compassion for yourself. Be gentle with yourself when you’re exhausted and treat yourself kindly. Be kind in your thoughts and feelings towards yourself.
Nurture what inspires you. Feed and nurture what truly inspire you through your thoughts, energy and actions.
Be vigilant with your time. Learn to guard your time like the precious gift that it is. Schedule plenty of quality time and space to care for yourself.

Sometimes you have to be your own hero or cheerleader. Just because you may be struggling throughout your journey does not mean you are failing. Keep believing and good things will happen. Always remember the one who falls and gets back up is so much stronger than the one who never fell at all. Your purpose is to fully be all that you are.

Kindness Matters

Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. – Mark Twain

Affiliate Disclaimer: This site contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you purchase through any of the links (at no additional cost to you).

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Finding kindness within is not as easy as it sounds. Recently, I have made a commitment to find kindness within and to practice kindness toward others on a daily basis. But what does this really mean? For me, it’s quite simple. To practice kindness, you first must find kindness within (mind, body, spirit) so you can share it with others. Second, you must be kind hearted and be a gentle soul. Third, you must naturally care for others and not be fake about it. Finally, you have to show that you’re not selfish by showing compassion toward others as well as refraining from criticizing and/or judging people throughout your journey.

WAYS TO PRACTICE KINDNESS

Kindness is free. Sprinkle it everywhere. – Unknown Author

Let’s begin by defining kindness. Kindness is defined as the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate; a kind act. According to The Minds Journal, “kindness is like loaning someone your strength instead of reminding them of their weakness.”

Here’s some ways to practice kindness throughout your day:

Be kind to yourself. Notice your self-talk. Recite positive affirmations. Practice meditation and engage in basic self-care routines.
Use your manners often. Saying thank you and you’re welcome are expressions of gratitude. A grateful heart is all it takes to express kindness.
Smile at everyone you pass or encounter. I always greet people with a warm smile and a kind word. Whether they respond or not, it makes me feel good.
Be generous and give from the heart. Donate money or clothes to charity, volunteer your time to help the needy, or even bring a gift or souvenir whenever you visit a friend. Even at home, we can lend a helping hand by offering to wash the dishes, vacuum the floor, or clean the bathrooms.
Help a stranger. You can help someone put their bags in the car, let someone go ahead of you in line, hold the door or elevator, run errands for your friend or neighbor, or hold an umbrella for someone who needs a hand.
Send good wishes. Kindness always begins with a thought. Secretly send people good intentions, wishes, and prayer.
Give praises. Giving a sincere praise to someone is an act of kindness. By giving recognition to others, we can help them to develop confidence in themselves.
Acknowledge a loved one or friend. Take a moment to call a loved one or a friend to catch up instead of sending a text. It’s refreshing to have a heart-to-heart conversation over the phone.
Send greeting cards. Send a greeting card just because to let someone know you’re thinking of them. Sometimes, the unexpected cards are the best, and they’ll make a lasting, positive impression.
Compliment someone. There has to be something nice you can say to others throughout your day. You could make a compliment about their appearance, smile, hairstyle/haircut, eye glasses, clothes, shoes, presentation or for a job well done.

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS – SPEAK KINDNESS

In a world where you can be anything, be kind. – Unknown Author

Honestly, I believe there is power in kindness. We must remember that kindness is not an act, but it is a lifestyle. Kindness is always beautiful. While it is important to show kindness to others, be kind to yourself as well.

Here’s some great examples of how you can speak kindness into your life:

I speak with kindness and choose to be kind to myself every day.
I believe in myself and trust in my abilities to succeed in all I do.
I am a beautiful soul that radiates a vibrant and beautiful form.
I let the events of today go. I forgive myself and others for any mistakes that were made.
I have a kind heart. I am mindful of other people and their feelings.
I accept who I am and I love myself.
I am worthy of everything good in life.

JOURNAL PROMPTS

Practice simple acts of kindness every day. – Unknown Author

How do you define kindness?
How will you practice self-kindness today?
How often do you share kindness with others?
How are gratitude and kindness related?
What is keeping me from showing kindness to others?

Unfortunately, we live in a world where kindness is so desperately needed. Kindness can put us and others at ease while we’re interacting with one another. Try it next time you’re out and about. Offer a kind word or gesture to someone you meet, to someone who serves your community, or even a family member. Notice what happens. From a learning perspective, you’ll see that the effects are cumulative. The more we practice kindness, the better we get at it, it helps build our character, and it becomes who we are.

Special Thought – I take time to reflect on my amazing life, then write in my journal.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Getting started with journaling can be frustrating for some people, but also can be life changing for others. When doing anything in life, having a personal and well-defined purpose will encourage you to stick to it.

Here’s some questions you can ask yourself:

• Do you want to journal to relieve stress and anxiety?
• Do you want to deal with a childhood trauma?
• Do you want to journal to a new you for 2020?
• Do you want to journal for self-improvement?

Whatever your reason, the results will be the same. Once you begin the journaling process, you’ll become wiser, more enlightened, and all-around better version of yourself.

AMAZON RESOURCE # 1

JOURNALING BENEFITS

I can be changed by what happens to me. But I refuse to be reduced by it. – Maya Angelou

To begin with, journaling allows you to track patterns, trends, improvement and growth over time. By regularly recording your thoughts you will gain insight into your behaviors and moods. In addition, journaling has been proven to improve not only mental and physical health, but it has increased self-esteem in some people as well.

In addition, journaling benefits can help you:

• Clarify your thoughts and feelings

• Know yourself better

• Reduce stress

• Solve problems more effectively

• Resolve disagreements with others

Now, close your eyes and clear your mind. Be honest with yourself and be willing to feel the words within your soul. If you allow yourself to escape for a moment, you may free yourself from emotional bondage.

AMAZON RESOURCE #2

SELF-REFLECTION BENEFITS

Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away. – Barbara DeAngeles

Moreover, journaling and self-reflection goes hand in hand. Self-reflection can be defined as meditation or serious thought about one’s character, actions and motives. Self-reflection is a humbling process. It’s essential to find out why you think, say, and do certain things, then better yourself throughout the process.

Here’s some other benefits of self-reflection:

• Self-reflection allows you to notice negative patterns in your life. Consider alternate approaches to your situation(s) and begin to move away from the stressors altogether.

• Self-reflection keeps you focused on the bigger picture. Identify a clear vision of where you want to see yourself in the future. Write it down and remind yourself of what you hope to accomplish.

• Self-reflection prevents you from worrying about things out of your control. Instead, direct your energy toward things you can absolutely improve within your life.

• Self-reflection helps you face your fears. Recognize and admit your fears to yourself and eventually learn how to handle them.

• Self-reflection allows you to clearly define happiness on your own terms. When are you most happy? Who do you most enjoy spending time with? What accomplishments are you most proud of and why? By recognizing the positive life events, you can apply your knowledge to future goals and endeavors.

Keep in mind, self-reflection is an incredible gift so please embrace it every day. It can make our journey through life more peaceful if you allow it to. In the mirror we find a reflection of our appearance, but in the heart, we find a reflection of our soul.

CREATING HEALTHY HABITS

Create healthy habits, not restrictions. – Unknown Author

Now, we know more about the benefits of journaling and self-reflection, it’s time to learn why creating healthy habits are so important for self-improvement.

Well, it is that time of the year when a lot of people set new goals or resolutions to create healthy habits for the new year. People set out with the best intentions but often times fail to keep the momentum throughout the year for various reasons.

Please keep these important tips in mind when creating healthy habits:

• Start with a realistic, small and attainable goal.

• Work it into your schedule and write it down like any other appointment.

• Track your progress in a journal or online.

• Figure out strategies to overcome what might hold you back.

• Enlist a friend to work on the goal with you.

• Reward yourself for small victories.

• Forgive yourself if you slip up and keep trying. Giving up is not an option.

• Use triggers to your advantage. For example, meditate before bed time every night or lay out your workout clothes every morning before you leave for work.

Remember, when you start to create healthy habits your enthusiasm is high, and you’re motivated to see positive changes within your life. Be patient and allow yourself to make mistakes along the way. Our greatest capacity to have influence over our health is with creating healthy habits.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! I cannot believe it is December 1st already. Where did the year go? Lately, I have been struggling with my son’s behavior problems at home/school, transitioning back to full-time work, and dealing with grief due to the holidays, birthdays, etc. I thought it would be nice to hold myself accountable by writing a blog encouraging my spirit.

ORDER MY STEPS

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. (Psalm 37:23)

God, please order my steps on today! Give me direction. Guide my mind (thoughts), body (movement) and spirit (soul) each day. Open my spiritual eyes so that I can see the plans you have for me. Open my heart so that I can forgive those who have hurt me in the past. God allow me to trust you and to trust my journey.

AMAZON RESOURCE # 1

Moreover, when we pray for God’s guidance and for discernment through the Holy Spirit, we can be rest assured that God will provide wisdom to his children.

Here’s some spiritual ways to help you prepare for God’s guidance:

• Cleansing – It is important to examine our own lives. What in my life will hinder me from seeing or receiving God’s guidance?

• Surrendering – You have to surrender your will to God and you must bring your will under submission to His.

• Asking – Understand that you can ask anything according to God’s will and he hears your request(s).

• Meditating on God’s Word – God often times use His word to reveal things to His children.

• Believing – Have faith in God and believe that God will answer your prayer. Then, give you the necessary guidance to make it through your situation.

• Waiting – Be patient and remember that it is not our timing, but God’s timing.

• Receiving – God has our best interest at heart so always be prayerful and listen for His response.

STEPS FOR YOU TO FOLLOW

For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death. (Psalm 48:14)

Despite what I may be going through right now, I know that God always have my best interest at heart as He order my steps from day to day. Now, we know as long as we live, troubles will come. Instead of sinking in the sand, let’s prepare ourselves instead.

Here’s some steps for you to follow the next time you face a challenge in life:

• Step 1 – Spend time in a quiet place where you can be alone with no distractions.

• Step 2 – Light a candle to set the mood.

• Step 3 – Quiet yourself before God for a few minutes and then thank God for being present with you.

• Step 4 – Then, thank God for blessings in your life. This practice builds confidence that no matter what challenges you face in life, there are still blessings to celebrate.

• Step 5 – Now, make your request known to God. State your challenge and what you need.

• Step 6 – Ask God how you can honor Him in this situation. Pause. Be still and see what comes to you.

• Step 7 – Don’t try to process the thoughts. Just write them down and reflect on them later.

As you can see, we have to make our requests known to God and build our relationship with Him. As we read and study God’s Word we are reminded of God’s guidance throughout our lives. God is our Heavenly Father and God is our Shepherd who leads us daily.
