Now that we’ve kicked off the #SummerOfAwesome, I’m wondering, what have you done for you lately?
Have you started to come out of your shell? Has it felt scary or liberating, or maybe a little of both?
Have you pushed yourself to learn how to work a room? This one may sound intimidating at first, but like anything else, it gets easier once you get used to it.
Have you started to chat people up? Met anyone interesting? One of the people I chatted up was a hostess in a restaurant in Dayton, Ohio, and learned that she would be going to the Aveda Institute in Columbus in the fall to become a hair stylist. She seemed so thrilled that someone was interested. And it’s fascinating to learn little snippets about people. It’s like taking a quick peek into their lives.
Have you begun to recognize your own inner awesomeness? And begun to let go of the old way of thinking that feeling you’re awesome might in some way be arrogant?
And have you begun to identify how independent you really are?
If you have begun to take these steps, more power to you! Keep up the good work!
If you haven’t, why not start today? There’s no time like the present to become a more awesome version of the already awesome you!
Remember, sometimes you have to be your own hero.
Now get out there and save yourself!
This is Awesome, and you are Awesome. I love it.
Thanks, Sabrina! Glad you’ve enjoyed it!
I love your blog, Bringing Back Awesome, Denise and Andrea. Two years ago, I wouldnt have done all.of the things you just mentioned, Andrea on a consistent basis for myself. I am happy to say that after a painful seperation from my ex husband and divorce that I am rediscovering my old self before marriage and children as well as discovering a new self. I no longer feel like the divorced mom who is not sure where she belongs among married couples and families nor do I feel like the odd single mom plus one. Ive discovered once I let go of fears and judgement that I was happy to be me and my true self and that people are just people and everyone is just doing the best that they know how.. So ladies, keep on sharing your thoughts. Your posts have been a source of inspiration and positive morale boosters.
Biljana, it brings so much joy to my heart to hear that you’re expanding your world in this way. In the beginning it can be scary, but after a while it starts to become second nature, allowing us to take a chance and do things we might have never imagined doing before.
And the fact that you think our blog is an inspiration means the world to me and Denise! Thank you so much for reading!
Biljana, sorry to read about your marriage. We are so happy that you are a loyal follower and that we can help you along in this journey called life. Have a wonderful week. You deserve it.
