Life. Love. Louisville.

2018 Weapons of Choice

12.31.17 | Life

Protecting yourself by building your mind and spirit is a fundamental aspect of life and how to get through it. If you’re ill prepared you’re doomed to get stepped on, used, abused and discarded like that last batch of cookies that you know you need to throw away to start your new year on a new note.

When you’re making room by cleaning out the trash from your home that isn’t healthy, think about these three items to bring into your life.

Big things come in small packages: The UE Wonderboom 2 — portable, loud and waterproof speakers for big sounds on the go. If you work from home, it’s nice to have background noise to break up the monotony of your daily grind. Treat yourself by purchasing from Verizon Wireless!

Reading People: How Seeing the World through the Lens of Personality Changes Everything by Anne Bogel

Super huge shout-put to Ann Bogel of Louisville! So excited to read this as my first book in 2018!

If the viral Buzzfeed-style personality quizzes are any indication, we are collectively obsessed with the idea of defining and knowing ourselves and our unique place in the world. But what we’re finding is this: knowing which Harry Potter character you are is easy, but actually knowing yourself isn’t as simple as just checking a few boxes on an online quiz.

For readers who long to dig deeper into what makes them uniquely them (and why that matters), popular blogger Anne Bogel has done the hard part–collecting, exploring, and explaining the most popular personality frameworks, such as Myers-Briggs, StrengthsFinder, Enneagram, and others. She explains to readers the life-changing insights that can be gained from each and shares specific, practical real-life applications across all facets of life, including love and marriage, productivity, parenting, the workplace, and spiritual life. In her friendly, relatable style, Bogel shares engaging personal stories that show firsthand how understanding personality can revolutionize the way we live, love, work, and pray.

HUGE thanks to my dear friend and amazing collaborator, Debra Locker. You’re a gift to my life and a blessing to work with.

A boost of energy juice with the powerstation plus 12000 with Switch-Tip Cable. Charge both Apple and micro USB devices with the mophie powerstation plus XL — and do it without having to carry around multiple cables. This charger’s built-in, switch-tip cable accommodates both power ports. The 12000 mAh battery will deliver up to four additional charges to your smartphone and can also power up other devices, including tablets. Dual output USB charging ports let you charge two devices simultaneously.

With my on-the-go life, this battery backup carries a heavy punch. Just what I need to get through my multi-phone, laptop and tablet fueled life. This gadget is available via Verizon Wireless.

Last but not least, be sure to add a lot of care, joy and protection to your life. Caring for yourself is the best thing you can do regardless of circumstance. It’s a fundamental need to keep your heart in the space it needs to be and your mind to push you through the cycles of life and relationships. If you don’t love you, no one else will either. Your heart needs this protection so you can find the right person or people to surround yourself with. Your circle will make you or break you.

Life is a never-ending battle. It doesn’t matter how many battles you’ve won or lost; the only thing that matters is that you never gave up. You’ll learn something from each one and the only importance to keep in your heart is to know that you survived… so keep on surviving.

Cheers to you and yours! I hope you have a very happy New Year!
