What are you planning to do today?
I have a very short post for you today with a couple of questions...
1) What are you planning to do today?
and
2) What would you do differently today if you knew that you couldn't fail?
Many of us have dreams and ambitions that we don't allow ourselves to follow because we have all sorts of internal dialogues which tell us we can't, we shouldn't, we're not good enough or we'll fail.
Most of these come from places outside of ourselves, such as our parents, teachers, the expectations of society, etc., etc. And they are not all working in our best interests.
It's useful to examine these thoughts every so often and see them for what they truly are - LIMITING BELIEFS that are holding us back.
They are often not rooted in fact, but in fear - fear of failure, fear of success, fear of missing out, fear of being ridiculed.... the list is endless. But they are only our fears and we can deal with them by changing our thoughts and thinking differently.
One way is to ask yourself, "What would life be like if things did work out?" and start from a premise of positivity and optimism rather than doom and gloom. Think about all the good things that could happen rather than the negative ones. You will find yourself in a much better place, and much more likely to take a positive action.
So today, maybe take a look back at the questions I posed initially and see if you could do something different that you've wanted to do for a while but haven't due to your limiting beliefs.
And then...
GO OUT AND DO IT!
Happy Sunday, whatever you choose to do.
Leave a note in the comments of your best actions today.
To your endless success... let's make today the best one ever!

Good morning Gail,
Thank you for your blog post, it's appreciated.
I always like to keep Sundays different from the rest of the week, it's good to have a day off and relax. Yesterday, I went to church in the morning and then off to visit friends for dinner in the afternoon.
I see so many people held back by fear, it's not clever. Sometimes we just have to step out and take action! We are far better off to take action, rather than doing nothing at all, even if we make mistakes along the way, which we will!
I have known of so-called perfectionists who do nothing at all, as they don't think they will be good enough. Or is that an excuse for doing nothing at all, I think possibly!
Have a great day.

Hi Roy. Thanks for your comment and I'm pleased you had a day doing the things you like. That's really what it's all about really, isn't it? Life if meant to be fun - challenging at times, yes; but ultimately, great fun! :)
Hello Gail,
It's a pleasure!
It's good to take time out and it is also good to enjoy life! We all have to work and do things, but it's good to enjoy and do life properly and get job satisfaction.
Enjoy the rest of your evening.
Roy
Hi, Gail-Uk
Today beautiful sunny day in my countryside i had an appointment with my hairdresser but she was not in shape so iwent walking towards the ponds to ventilate myself a little; but alone it's not funny but it made me feel good
Love this! Today I am enjoying my time away from home with loved ones. Beautiful weather for the beach over here in Florida but a a bit cold right now to stay too long.
At this point, I’m trying to distance myself from working so hard on my online business. I have spent every spare minute during the past year on learning and starting up 2 websites. Early mornings and late evenings so I wouldn’t fall behind.
Sometimes it’s too much, like things being too up-close and in your face! You can’t focus. So I’m trying to step back a little to get things in focus. Gain clarity by looking at the big picture to make more strategic decisions.
That sounds like a good plan. I also work all hours of the day and night it seems, although I do love it. However, we do need to stop and take stock sometimes and we all deserve a rest too!
I've been to the park with my daughters today since the sun was shining for seemingly the first time in ages. We had a good time. It's what life should be about.
Have fun and thanks for taking the time to comment. Gail
Enjoy your time with your loved ones.
You know the saying 'can't see the wood for the trees'. That can happen when you focus so intensely for a long time.
Enjoy the rest of your day.

It's a beautiful day today - sunshine, blue sky - just what I have been waiting for. I have hardly been out in the garden all winter because I need crutches and am very afraid of slipping. I have just been out with my dog for a nice walk and will now do a bit of weeding in the garden and plant a few herbs that I bought yesterday.
In the morning, when it was still frosty, I created my logo for my new website. So I am feeling really great today.
Thanks for you encouraging post.
Isabella
Hi Isabella
So pleased you have got into your garden today. I'm just heading into mine for the first time seriously this year too. I get great pleasure from my garden - I haven't a clue what I'm doing really, but I love it anyway.
Good luck with your new website too.
All the best
Gail

What I wanted to do was stay in bed to 11am and then go out and have an Indian Vindaloo or even a mild one like Korma.
But my wife kicked me out of bed at 6am and said "make money or no eat" God, Vietnamese women are tough.
So ended up writing (with AI help) 5 blogs...and now having a Tiger...beer that is. lol.

Chicken Panda....OMG..Lol.
