Build Confidence in Yourself One Day at a Time

What Don’t You Want in Your Life?
We can feel appreciation not only for things that we have, but also for things we don’t have! For today’s journal entry, turn your ideas about wealth upside down and think of the all the things that you don’t have, which are also things that you don’t want. Use words and art to express your thanks for what you do not have.

The Magic of Prosperity Thinking
One of the many magical things about prosperity thinking is its ability to expand and increase exponentially what you focus on. The more we notice and appreciate prosperity already in our lives, the more there is! For today’s micro journal entry, follow these instructions:
Write down five things that you are grateful for Quick – write down five more.
Take a deep breath, and write down five more (oxygen can be one of them!)
And super-lightning fast, write down five more
Once you have written 20 things on one tiny page of your journal, illustrate it if you like — or leave it as is!
~in the excellence of expansion, Karen

Twists and Turns in Your Life Path?
Today, reflect on the path of your life, and all of the unexpected twists and turns that you have found in the terrain. What was a particular challenge? What can you take from that experience and apply to your life in a positive way? What unexpected — and perhaps unrecognizable — gifts have you been given on your path?

Curiosity and You
What are you curious about? What questions are in your heart and soul? What is something you’d love to know tomorrow? For today’ entry, reflect on your splendid curiosity and the way that it helps you forge a unique and prosperous life for yourself. Pay attention to your gratitude for curiosity as you write.
~in the Curious Mode, Karen
Celebrate You
Today’s journal entry is another venture into celebrating your uniqueness. Many times, in the rush of our day, we forget just how great and gloriously unique we are! Make a list (either through words, art, or both) of all the ways that your day today was like nobody’s else’s. Express it in a way that NOBODY else can. ~loving the new you review, Karen
Celebrating Failure: Finding the Blessing
Today’s thought is about feeling appreciation for “failures”. Think of something — either something that has happened recently, or something that happened a while ago — that didn’t go as planned. Look at the experience and find the blessing in it, and write about that! What did you discover?
~thrilled to fail better, Karen
Being the Change
Take a moment and think about a change you’d like to see in the world. Then, reflect on the ways that YOU can be the change you want to make in the world. Create your journal entry while thinking of the ways that you positively impact the lives of the people in your immediate circles, as well as ways that you could continue to cultivate those connections. Feel a sense of gratitude for your ability to change your environment just by being who you are!

Expand Your Creativity
For your micro entry today, express yourself with a new media. For example:
* If you are mostly writing your entries, try adding some art or doodles.
* If you are more comfortable with art, try adding some straight journaling.
* If you are writing prose, try poetry.
Open wide to see what comes forth when you give yourself a little bit of room to play!

Opening the Windows of Opportunity
For your micro entry today, think of something that you want.
Now, think of the way in which you already have the ESSENCE of that thing in your life NOW.
For example, if you want a new job, get to the bottom of WHY you want the new job. For example, you could determine that you want “freedom.” Now, figure out the ways in which you already have “freedom” in your life now.
And allow your entry to be an expression of that!
Opening my windows, too–Karen
