When you take the kids to the park or to their sports practices or gymnastics lessons or wherever you go, watch them! Kids LOVE to be watched! Ever been at the park with your little one and every 3 seconds they say “Mom watch this, Mom watch this, Mom watch this!” They are just going down the slide on their back but every single time… “Mom are you watching, Mom did you see me, Mom it’s going to be so cool, Mom watch me this time, Mom this time I’m going to close my eyes… watch me!” lol. Kids love to have the audience and get the same smile and nod over and over and when they are teenagers and live in their teen cave and only emerge for food, you will wish for these days back…. trust me! So today, no matter how many thousands of times you have seen the awkward cartwheel or the shoe tie, or the amazing slide down, watch the kids do it, get excited and Live Inspired Now!

When people offer suggestions I often hear people say things like “I already knew that” or “yea I was just going to do that.” When people offer you a suggestion, just smile and say thank you. They are usually just trying to be helpful and even though you may already know how to do something, you should honor the fact that someone cares enough to offer you help. It is your ego that says “I don’t need you to tell me how to do something, I knew it already without your input… look at me look at me… I’m smart!” Tell the ego to be quiet because being courteous is a gift to others and to yourself. So today, accept suggestions with grace and Live Inspired Now!

Sheltering children from pain doesn’t protect them from the world, in fact it makes them more vulnerable. Instead, teach children how to deal with pain and disappointment in a healthy way. Teach them to communicate their true feelings, teach them to allow themselves time to feel badly and then to move forward without carrying the baggage of past huts with them! This will teach children how to overcome challenges without giving up on them, it will equip them with the skills they need to persevere in life. Toddlers fall down so many times before they ever learn to walk… you wouldn’t hold them back from learning to walk because they might fall. So continue to allow them to “fall” as they get older, these are life lessons that shape their destiny and make them stronger and more capable. So today, don’t protect your child from natural consequences, allow them to learn valuable lessons that only come from experience and Live Inspired Now!

Relationships don’t end badly, people sometimes act badly when relationships end! Not all relationships are meant to last forever and that is OK, but when you do end a relationship you should do so with dignity and grace. Don’t stalk the person, don’t talk badly about them, don’t try and get people to dislike them and never ever post your grievances on facebook! Allow yourself time to mourn the relationship if you need, take time to reflect before moving on and respect that the person had a special place in your heart at one time. The relationship might be over but your dignity and self worth should remain and even if the other person is acting badly, do not engage in it. So today, if you are ending a relationship, keep your cool, allow yourself time to get over it, don’t act badly and Live Inspired Now!
