Yesterday taught me a great lesson about what happens when I just wing it. Without visualizing and planning my day, I was subject to whatever came my way and the day was horrible.

So last night I planned what I wanted my day to look like. I took the time to visualize my morning and it happened as I saw it. And I continued throughout the day to visualize my day the way I wanted it to turn out and today was such a vibe.
Guess what I’m doing again tonight.
I explain it more on today’s podcast. If you’re tired of sh*t days, check it out (and maybe check out yesterday’s too).

Today was not ideal, but tomorrow does not have to be a repeat.
Today happened as it did. I contacted who I needed to contact, met with my therapist, recorded and edited today’s podcast, and then took a good nap.
Some things are outside of our control. And a lot more is within our control than we realize. So today I took what I learned and I’m making it my business to be more prepared for a better tomorrow.
What I’m doing to prepare is likely not what you’re expecting. Check out today’s podcast to hear what I’m doing.

I’ve been putting off sewing this handbag (for myself) for a while. But I need to do it because about a week ago I looked down at my “purse” and realized how it’s and overused, tattered mess, and the strap is all but falling off. So the last time I used it, I decided that I love myself too much to ever wear that bag in public ever again.
So every day I leave my house with my wallet, and phone, and keys in my hands, fumbling through store aisles with all this stuff that’s normally in my purse. And I come home fully committed to completing this handbag because “I just can’t.”
But the combo of ADHD and my current lack of rest (and peace of mind) usually lead to me doing a few step, getting confused on how to move forward, putting it down to work on when I’ve had rest, and then the cycle repeats.
So today, I woke up and decided to complete this bag. No more putting it down to work on it later… And as I was working, I started thinking about where I’m at in life versus where I want to be. Oddly this time instead of heading down the path of self-loathing, I started thinking about the awesomeness that is Tabitha Brown.
I started thinking about her testimony. How she followed that voice within, and did what she felt guided to do… not knowing how it would walk her up the path to her dreams.
I thought about how she openly and unapologetically praises… thanking God for where she is and likely for how far she’s come.
I could hear her in my head saying, “God, I thank you.” And I thought about myself and my own journey. I realized that the depth of her praise is likely because she can see every step of the journey, the hard parts, the ready to give up parts, the “is this EVER gonna work out for me?” parts…. They’re all in there. I’m sure the memories waft up and she can contrast them with where she is now and it bubbles up and erupts in a, “God, I thank you.”
And each time she praises, and shares her victories, I get happy right along with her.
I see me, when I see her. When she wins, I am reminded that my wins are possible…. and now that I think about it… maybe even inevitable. I like that thought that I get to win, too.
I gain strength from watching her win and watching her praise. She encourages me to keep going, to believe it gets better, to believe one day I’ll be doing my own version of “God, I thank you.”
I have a living example that the vision I see for my life is not just possible, but it’s before me. Seeing Tabitha Brown living her dreams, shows me how real it can be… that I can go from wishing, hoping, and wondering when…. to living it.
She’s living proof that “though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come.” And I’m so grateful.

Even as I’m writing this, I’m realizing that it’s not enough to just see it as possible, but to take it the next step and KNOW it is before me.
This is why sharing our testimonies matters. This is why Share and Let’s Live! exists. We’re here for each other. As we share our gifts and our testimonies, we all get to grow and be more of who we were always meant to be.
By watching Tab share her journey, I’ve gained faith to keep going… to keep believing my own journey leads to my dreams.
It gets to be better than this. This is not how my story ends. Just as I’ve been along for the ride in the last few years and have watched her blessings unfold (and will continue to watch her blessings unfold), there are people watching me and they’ll be my witnesses.
One day my triumphs and these present trials will be somebody else’s reason to keep going. My journey will one day be the testimony that gives someone hope. And I’m choosing to hold on to that thought.
Thank you Tabitha Brown for sharing your journey…. the downs and the ups. I didn’t plan to write all this. I was really planning to just share a song that came to mind as I was thinking of you this morning. The song is “My Worship Is For Real.”
I’ll leave it in the comments along with an excerpt of the lyrics.
Bless you, Tab! And bless you for reading (and listening) and being my witness.
