Chase Your Joy
Does anyone else feel like we’ve lived the longest week of our lives and it’s still only Thursday?
It’s been a roller coaster ride for every beautiful human I’ve talked to this week…full moon? Daylight savings? Post-holiday? Either way, amidst each and every wild moment, I’ve decided to chase down joy.
For me, that looked like walking through every Christmas-themed aisle at Hobby Lobby so that I could finish decorating our new space. More specifically, I finally have a fireplace mantel to decorate!!! (This is what Pinterest dreams are made of)
Eric quickly became my chaperon as he knows all to well that I shouldn’t be left unattended in Hobby Lobby once anything Christmas related hits the shelves. Y’all…if you haven’t been…run don’t walk. The Grinch section alone had me questioning how I could dedicate an entire space to bright green ridiculousness with Max and Cindy Lou Who in my home.
So there I was…decorating the staircase, decorating the mantel, turning on all the twinkling lights and sitting quietly in the dark while my favorite Christmas songs played in my living room. I was bursting with joy. I chased it.
This was all at the end of what I have to share was an already impactful day… An amazing virtual training I got to lead, progress from individual coaching sessions, and plans for innovation after a call with an industry leader.
Why do I share this with you? Because joy (and light) are all around us.
It’s in the little moments with sparkling Christmas lights and the big moments following a successful training.
Some days are filled with rainbows and sunshine and others feel like a rainstorm that won’t let up.
No matter which you had yesterday or this week, the ups and downs are part of life. They’re not going anywhere, I promise.
Our life will ebb and flow, high and low. But just like I share in Unapologetic, finding the light is a choice. Chasing your joy is a choice. Looking for the good is in no one else’s hands but your own.
So I want to challenge you to chase your joy today and the rest of this week.
I want you to find three amazing things that happened whether they be minute or magnificent. And then I hope you’ll share them.
With me, with someone you love, or during your gratitude practice. [Sidebar: if you don’t have a gratitude practice…let’s chat.]
No matter what route you choose, just choose it. Be intentional about it. Chase your joy.
You deserve it.
& be nothing but yourself.
Big Hugs & Love,
Cassy
