Step 5: nagging voices
So today it was exactly the same as the other two days except we had to write down negative thoughts and voices that tell us we can't do this etc. Honestly, been doing flylady so long that I don't have those voices anymore :-)
That is the main thing I keep from this, even when I am not doing missions or reading her messages. I still hear actual voices from other people in my life, but I am also mostly good at not letting them get to me. Some would say almost too good as those negative voices no longer push me to act. This is more good than bad, the only thing is I now have to work a bit harder to convince myself to stuff for my sake.
Today when I was shining my sink though, I did feel happy. And maybe that's what made this morning so different. Despite not getting much sleep, I felt awake and ready to take on the day. Something that usually doesn't happen till i've been awake for a few hours. And I have been telling myself that I am blessing myself and my family and as corny as it sounds I like doing it. Most people know how much work it is to take care of a family, even if you have never done it, it can be hard just to take care of yourself now times that by 4. I am not behind, I am wherever I am supposed to be.
