So you made a mistake.  You messed up.   You thought you had it all together, but something went wrong along the way.  Things happen.  The important thing is to learn from your mistakes so you don’t repeat them.

Don’t be so hard on yourself.   Stop beating yourself up!

Breathe … in … and hold it … then slowly release.

Allow all of your anxieties to flow out of your lungs through your body as they make their way out of your mouth as you blow out with determination and force.   Imagine that all of the negatives are being forced out right along with it.   Oh sure, some negativity tries to remain no matter how hard you blow out.   I can imagine slippery, slimy particles holding on by little suction cups on their hands and feet.   You blow, you exhale hard, and they lose their grip!  Yes!   Success as one screams its way past another and this negative being is no more!   As you continue to breathe out, even MORE negativity leaves your body …

You hold your head back for a moment as a smile creeps across your face now, and you are ready to begin again.

This post was inspired by the Five Minute Friday prompt word:  Begin.  Join us at the new location for the link up next week, but for now, this is the last hoo-ray over at Lisa Jo’s site!
