Don't Let It Affect You the Wrong Way... | Your Quote of the Day

I'm not going to make this post without acknowledging the current events of our country. 

Mainly the Dallas police shooting. 

Even though in my #qotd Dexter is speaking specifically about the economy, we should apply this to everything in life.
The quote I am sharing with you today is one of strength, and is a reminder that though we live in times where bad news is concentrated all over the internet, the news outlets, the world, etc, we mustn't let it affect HOW WE AFFECT the world. 

Whatever happens out there is a result of how people are currently letting events affect them. Therefore they affect the world negatively by causing evil upon others. 

Don't be like them. 

Don't spread the same evils because of your fear. 

Don't talk about it only for the sake of having to talk about it. Most especially don't let that fear turn into violence. 

If you're going to talk about it, then also have a plan of action to better the situation to bring hope and light to others. 

Whether it's your personal life, your financial situation, the economy, or in society, don't let whatever bad things that happen in the world affect you. 

You affect the world by doing good things because that will wash out the bad. The bad will always be there, but you don't have to drown in it. 

The secret is in always wanting to give good by showing love to all those you encounter every day. 

So today- even though we will be seeing bad news online and on TV, go help someone who needs helps. Go tell the person you are holding unforgiveness toward that you forgive them. Go start that business you've always wanted to start that will help others. Go inspire a homeless person to get a job and provide for themselves. 

Go do something with love that combats the evil we are seeing today. 

Dedicate your life to this mission.

Do Not Be Worried About Your Life... | Your Quote of the Day (Matthew 6: 25-27)

“For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they? And who of you by being worried can add a single h our to his life?” (Matthew 6:25-27) #prayhopedontworry #qotd#LiveLikeNoOneElse

"Preparation, Disorganisation, & the 100 THINGS CHALLENGE" | Your Quote of the Day

This quote of the day is pretty personal to me because I have to be transparent about it. 

I haven't been good at preparing for my goals lately. 

The big question is 

Why? 

Well, If you don't know me quite as personally as my parents know me, 

then this might be a shock to you. 

The thing is- I am one of the most disorganised people I know. 

Naturally, I'm disorganised. I'm impulsive. I'm indecisive. I'm all over the place. 

I'm discombobulated. I'm always in "react" mode. Sometimes, even in panic mode. 

Why I feel organisation is key to preparing for achieving goals 

So, this year, I've been really trying to intentionally work on being more organized.  

I know that if I'm more organised, I can see my goal more clearly, 

and from there be able to prepare accordingly. 

I was listening to the Michael Hyatt podcast, Season 3: Episode 5 called 

"The Top-10 Characteristics of Lousy Leaders." 

Click here to listen to this amazing podcast episode. 

Michael pointed out that disorganisation is one of those characteristics. 

Yes. I was pretty embarrassed as I sat in my bedroom trying to figure out what to do with my things, where to put them, and panicking about where I am going to find the time to take care of this all and get it to where I want it to be- minimalistic...immaculate, even. 

Ok. So now that I know why being more organised would help me, I need to take the first step to being organised. And what is that first step? 

DECLUTTERING. 

Yeah, I'm being really honest. I need to declutter. I need to throw away the things I don't need.

From my bedroom, to my car- it's pretty bad. 

It's clear that if I decluttered, I can be rid of the frustration of clutter. 

Therefore, I will have the energy then to organise all the areas of my life. 

Once I am able to get that right- I know that the path to my goals will be more clear 

because I don't have all this frustration and clutter built up in my mind or in my bedroom/house/car/etc. 

Alright, so how am I, Sirena, going to achieve decluttering and organization?

First, I decided I am going to take the challenge from a fellow Chamorro, Leo Babauta, from http://zenhabits.net/minimalist-fun-the-100-things-challenge/. 

This will be a 30 day challenge. 

Below are Leo's reasons why we should take this challenge that I copy and pasted from the article: 

Why go through the challenge?

A few reasons:

To help you declutter your home.

To make you realize what’s necessary, and what you love, and what you don’t need.

To free yourself of the burden of possessions.

For fun.

To force you to stick to the limit, even if you get new things.

Do you want to join me in this challenge?
