Quotable Sunday: On Over-Analyzing

1 Comment / Lifestyle /

I have a confession: I over-analyze things a bit too much. OK, a LOT too much. There aren’t many qualities I don’t like about myself, but this is one I am seriously working to change. After all, over-analyzing is never fun. What did that mean? Where is this going? But what if… If we’re too busy thinking all the damn time, we miss out on enjoying what is right now. Plus, what I’ve come to find true, is many times my over-analytical craziness is usually just a figment of my imagination. Hence, I drive myself crazy for absolutely no reason. And what’s the sense in that?

This week I’m going to try to listen to Tupac and just relax, take it easy and move on with it.

Do you over-analyze things? If so, what helps you to relax and stop thinking 24/7?

The other day, my lovely cousin came to me concerned about getting older, and things changing. I have to admit, this topic gets to me from time to time as well. But what really gets me through the day – and life in general – is living in the moment. I strive to live in the now, take every day as it comes, and not fret about the future. If you put too much stress and thought into what lies ahead, you will never fully be able to enjoy the present…the beautiful, amazing wonderful present.

So that’s what I leave you to think about on this sunny Sunday morning. Enjoy the day…it is all yours.

XoXo,

Quotable Sunday: Just Keep Swimming

6 Comments / Lifestyle /

I’ve always loved this classic quote from Finding Nemo, as it’s a reminder to just keep moving forward, no matter how tough life may get. Yesterday this quote especially struck home to me, when I was in the hospital speaking to my Papa George for the last time. When I asked if he had any words of wisdom for me, his very last words to me were “Just keep pluggin’ along.”

From now on, whenever I’m in a tricky situation – whether it be in a relationship or financial issues – I’m going to remember these four words and do my very best to pick my head up, smile and pull through. After all, giving up and being negative will get you no where in life. While I am heartbroken my grandpa is no longer with us, this advice I will remember and cherish forever.

I love the fact that I have a strong, supportive family who remains positive and upbeat in tough times like these. Let me tell you: we’re definitely going to just keep swimming ‘n’ pluggin’ along.
