Bring Joy to Your Day!

I know, I know, it’s been a while since I’ve written a blog post. One of my new year goals (who says it has to start in January, February is still the beginning of the year) is to be more consistent and intentional. Being consistent is a goal I have in many areas of my life, but especially in my business, Bridgette Breaking Barriers. Anywho, I’m checking in, how are things going in your world? I’d love to hear from you, comment, dm or inbox me.

I recently found a book on Audible (I love Audible, it’s the best thing since sliced bread, lol) that I’m absolutely loving! Like I can’t wait to listen. It’s been a while since I’ve been into a novel like this. I’ve been looking for a Christian fiction novel for a while now that spoke to me and I found the book, Faithful by Kim Cash Tate. It’s so good! There’s drama, but also some biblical truths along the way. I’ve been enjoying it so much until, that’s all I want to do, and after starting earlier this week, I’m close to finishing. It’s good to have something enjoyable like this to look forward to.

I’ve always admired people that loved to read. Reading allows you to grow and learn something new. It takes you into a story; and sometimes in our lives, a trip away isn’t so bad. What do you have in your life that brings your joy? And gives you something to look forward to? For me, right now, it’s the book. Lol. Among other things, I try to create different experiences with friends and family, allowing me time to spend with them while also trying something different, like going to a spatter room or trying a new restaurant.

With life moving so fast and sometimes being so emotionally draining it’s great to have an outlet, like reading, exercising, or a hobby. I’m encouraging you to find joy in your life. It’s the little things that often time make all the difference in the world. And in case you were wondering, these little joys don’t always have to cost money, although they can. Find something that works in your budget. Here’s a list of a few things I’ve found joy in or plan to do as a way of joy:

◦ Attending a dance exercise class

◦ Shopping  

◦ Taking a trip out of town

◦ Trying a new restaurant

◦ Taking a walk, I personally like to find a place with a good scenery (I love walking through downtown Savannah)

◦ Taking a class

◦ Learning a new skill

◦ Reading a good book

◦ Girls night in (virtual or in-person)

◦ Taking pictures with friends/family

◦ Going to the beach

◦ Watching a movie

Find something that works for you and brings joy to your days.

I’d love to hear from you and get your feedback. How often would you like to see a blog post from me? Any specific topics you’d like me to talk about? I’m looking forward to your feedback.
