Fill Your Jar With Kindness

 "You really are amazing at making people smile with your genuine approach in getting to know them."

"Every time you sit down to complete a task and remove the distractions you crush what you set out to do."

"The ability to remain calm in high-stakes situations is admirable."

"Damn you look good in jeans and cowboy boots!"

Do you have a jar filled with positive statements about the specific things you are good at or positive affirmations to bring you up when you are feeling down?

Imagine what it would feel like to dig into this jar and pull out a few good statements when self-doubt begins to rear it's ugly head.

I can see the warmth spreading with a smile on your face now. It feels soooo good to be reminded of your goodness. You can be the one to give yourself positive affirmations! Brighten your own day! Make the difference you need in the moment.

You know that on a good day you are marvelous at many efforts in your immediate world. The struggle comes from the moments of weakness, that little voice in your head suggests it's too hard, or you're not good enough, or others are better than you. We need to stand tall in these moments, reach into our jar and pull out some specific positive statements about what we are good at and remember the awesomeness that lives in us.

You know it takes all our unique personalities to make the world go around in an interesting and fun filled way. Could you imagine being married to yourself, having yourself as your best-friend and all your co-workers having the same personality as you. It doesn't work. We need chatty Kathy, Positive Paula, and Realistic Ralph.

So pull your head from your ass, grab some personal kindness to yourself and get on with your business!
