#BloomUp

Hay Daizee Loves!

I am ADDICTED to personal development. My last semester of college was an intense period of personal growth and development in every aspect of my life. I have always known WHAT I wanted and WHY. However, I was struggling with the HOW. I am going to tell you all now, that God put BIG dreams in this little body. They excite ME. They scare ME. They make ME uncomfortable. So, you can imagine, most people cannot comprehend them and they try to tell me I cannot turn them into reality. I had to realize that they were MY DREAMS and they were not meant for everyone to understand. I had to realize that A LOT of people simply are not dreamers. On the other hand, maybe they are but they put limitations on themselves and on God. So, they do not chase them. IDK.

After graduation, God gave me a glimpse at HOW I would turn my dreams into my reality. I haven't been the same since. I am on a mission. We are all here for a purpose. God puts your dreams and desires in your heart. They are FOR YOU! You have to live FOR GOD and FOR YOU. I am in a place now where NOT following my dreams feels like I am disobeying God and we cannot have that. SO, I encourage you all to BOSS UP & BLOOM UP. Follow YOUR DREAMS. You may be thinking, "I don't even have dreams" or "I can't articulate what they are.” That's okay! Baby steps. I put a few starter tips below!

1. PRAY. Ask God to show you what it is you are supposed to be doing. If you are having a hard time hearing Him... you probably need a good spiritual detox (this will be a later blog post under faith). Your relationship with God is going to be a major key! So make sure your heart is in order. Everything you do in life will flow from the condition of your heart.

2. INSPIRATION. Always, ALWAYS surround yourself with things and people who inspire you. You know the feeling you get! The feeling that makes you want to get up and BE GREAT somehow, someway. You need to have that feeling flowing through you 24/7. So find the songs, quotes, YouTube vids, friends, etc. that keep that feeling burning inside of you.

3. BLOOM UP. Bloom up is my way of saying boss up. And when I say boss up, I mean, MAN UP. WOMAN UP. FAITH UP. LEVEL UP. Do what you have to do to get things done! No excuses! Handle it. Like a beautiful, graceful SAVAGE. Get INTENTIONAL about personal development and growth! Break your bad habits. Implement some new healthy habits. Develop CHARACTER. Start becoming the person you need to be to make your dreams reality!

Seriously, I motivated myself writing this. We have ONE LIFE guys. Start living like it!

Love ALWAYS, Megan
