Sometimes when we put things off for long enough, it feels impossible to start.

Sometimes when we know we want change, we don't know how to begin.

Sometimes we let this uncertainty create an attitude of "it's too hard" or "I can't be bothered."

Then we procrastinate or become "too" busy or make excuses. Then we decide that we were right. It is too hard and we can't be bothered.

Then we feel, at best, stuck. At worst, like a total failure.

What if we made the decision that all we need to do is take one step? What if we didn't focus on all of it, and instead just the very first thing?

That would actually be manageable. That is something we could be bothered with.

One step. Sometimes that is all it takes.

Values are the things that matter to you. They influence your actions and reaction, your connections and your conflicts. And they affect the way you do business.

I got to talk about all this and more this afternoon with a group of intelligent and interesting women - and it reminded me of what an incredibly powerful tool we can access simply by understanding our values.

What do you think your top value is?

It's never too late.

Never too late to apologise. Never too late to admit a lie. Never too late to admit a mistake.

Never too late to learn something new. Never too late to try again. Never too late to get back on track.

It's never too late to change your mind. Never too late to change your direction. Never too late to change your priorities and never too late to change your life.

Let's stop throwing up our hands, and using the "it's too late" excuse.

Instead, let's start. Start whatever we've been delaying, procrastinating, putting off. Let's start doing the stuff we need to do to move forward. Let's start being the person who does the stuff that needs doing.

Right now. Today.

I was reminded today of how wonderful it is to see a person create sustainable, positive change in their life. To see the results that people have as they gain self-awareness. To see someone choose to experience life differently.

Corny perhaps and totally true...

Sometimes we get stuck.

Stuck in the daily routines, stuck in the mundane tasks, stuck in the same conversations, stuck facing the same challenges over and over.

Stuck with having the same experiences and the same results in our jobs or our relationships or our daily lives.

It can feel like groundhog day while running on a hamster wheel.

And here's the thing, here's is a huge reason why we stay stuck - because for some of us, we begin to connect "stuckness" with familiarity. And we connect familiarity with safety and security. So we will tolerate boredom or flatness or lack of inspiration rather than face the uncertainty of creating sustainable and supportive changes.

Yet with any new idea, any new goals, any new aspirations comes uncertainty! We never really know how it's all going to pan out. The only thing we do know is that if we stop evolving, if we stop moving, if we stop wanting, we land right back on that hamster wheel. It's exhausting and we're not getting anywhere.

We all feel stuck sometimes - the question to consider how long will we tolerate it? What are we really waiting for?

We may know this in our heads and now it is time to know it in our hearts....

Mums...watch this.

And remember it when you feel less than together.

Then tell yourself how awesome you are.

I have only just realised that one of my top priorities as a parent is to raise kids who are thoughtful and grateful.

It doesn't sound like a shocking revelation, but over the last few weeks, I have had some real honest conversations with my kids. I have gotten quite upset with what I call their "attitude" towards generosity, gratitude, and thinking of others.

I know kids are self centered - it is part of the process. Yet I have had several moments when I have looked at them and thought to myself, "How have I raised these kids to be so...[insert unwanted attitude here]"

And then I asked myself a different question. I decided to stop the mummy tantrums and instead ask:
What do I really want to teach them??

To share popcorn.
To help one another.
To get excited about new adventures.
To give it a go.
To give thanks and mean it.
Etc. etc. etc.!!

So now I can focus on that. Not on how sefish or rude or spoiled they are acting - instead I can hone in on what lesson I want to share.

And then I can trust that they will get it, they will try it on, and they will realise how good it feels to be those things.

What lessons are you focusing on with your children?

I believe that sometimes we forget to prioritise FUN. In the midst of the busy, the responsibilities, the parenting, the stuff to do, fun is something we may try to fit in when we can.

I want more fun...how about you?

What if we made a decision that fun isn't simply something we try to squeeze in? What if fun wasn't a bonus, but instead a priority?

So I'm looking to find ways to have fun - fun in my everyday life, fun that doesn't need to cost money, fun that I can experience whenever I want to.

Like everything else, having fun is a choice. It's a choice that boosts possibilities, increases creativity, stimulates our minds and our bodies.

We do more, think more, feel more when we tap into our sense of fun and laughter.

When we see the absurd instead of the drama and when we embrace ridiculousness in lieu of the boring.

Please, I ask you, have a really fun day, no matter what you are doing!!

Today I noticed some of the little "lovely" moments in the midst of movement and noise. I realise I don't always.

Won't let it happen again.
