I've had these photos in a file on my computer for a long time. Whenever I need inspiration and self-confidence I open the file and look at these women (there are quite a few more in the said file).
1- Amelia Earhart 1928 - First woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.
2- Anna Fisher - First mother in space in 1984.
3- Elle O'neal 1976- Woman skateboarder pioneer.
4- Early 1900 tattooed woman.
Not that I plan to fly any kind of space ship or plan to cover my skin with ink in this present life (though never say never).
But reaching my own dreams? Yes. And just like for most people out there, there are days when everything seems possible, when I can feel my dreams turn into reality and the butterflies in my stomach are very much alive and then there are those days when just the idea of making it through the day all the way 'til dusk feels like the biggest challenge of all, having to pick your battles between your 2 year old screaming for food and your newborn screaming for boob.
This week has been a fairly balanced mix of both but I would say that my energy is very much in tune with my dreams right now and even on those exhausting days, I have been able to feel the excitement for the life we are living, the path we are leading. And I opened this file, not because I felt desperate for comfort, but because I think these women are simply beautifully inspiring. They are a visual mantra for me. They scream " no matter how big your dreams, dream bigger".
I am curious to know what tricks people out there have to stay focus, feel inspired, lift their spirit, bring the happiness in their life and leverage the universe..
Oh and the boxing women? Anyone who knows me well, knows how much I love Muay Thai boxing, the punches, the kicks, the uppercuts, the sweat...it plays a big part in balancing my life (body, spirit, hormones, the entire package) and I just can't wait for my body to be strong enough again for it.
