Happiness is Not Perfection

I was inspired to share this today! I think as mothers and as women WE need to take this to heart so we can open ourselves up to true happiness.

Do you think that for you to be happy, everything in your life has to be just so? Happiness is a strange thing. It's not synonymous with perfection. In fact, some of the happiest people alive are neither wealthy nor thin.

Happiness involves overlooking imperfections, laughing at mistakes, and making a lot of lemonade from lemons. It is the attitude you adopt even in the face of problems.

Action for the day: Today, respond to your life with happiness. Wear your rose-colored glasses all day. Smile for no reason!

Thank you Jill Krekel for sharing this with me. I know taking this on has opened up an amazing opportunity for me. That is 10 H.O.T. Moms from around the country are working with me to Kick Off Beyond the Bus Stop Chapters! If I waited for it to all be perfect---this never would have happened. Instead I took on that this just has to happen ---and we will have fun and learn along the way from each other. I am sure we will even laugh at some of the mistakes.....But, can't girls just have fun to?!

This Fall we are launching 10 BTBS chapters around the country---and we hope you jump onboard with us and go for the ride of your life! What could be more empowering then amazing women coming together to support one another and encourage each other to enhance their life or reach for their dreams? If you want to be part of this--please send me a note and I will share our vision with you!

Keep striving for what you want in life---there are no limitations!
Make it a H.O.T. Day!
