The 90 days starts tomorrow.
One of the main reasons I am doing this is because I am really struggling. It is a hard season of life for me right now. I have neglected many things that it takes to be healthy, especially mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
I took a risk and asked for help. I texted the message below to 7 of my best friends. It was really scary to do. While I was writing it I had tears in my eyes. But someone, I can't remember who, said something about being courageous for 20 seconds...I think it was Brené Brown. So when I finished it I took the advice and I was courageous for 20 seconds and I hit send.
Then the hangover came. Brené Brown talks about the vulnerability hangover after being courageous. She talks about it after her first TED talk. Well shit, she is right. All of a sudden I was jittery and nervous and scared. I had to take my smart watch off and put my phone in a different room on silent because I didn't want to know if I was receiving any responses, I was too scared of what they might be. Even worse, I was scared that maybe nobody would respond. Frankly that would have been heartbreaking. It takes courage even sharing the screen shots because I clearly made grammatical errors, and that is embarrassing.
Well the hangover wore off, and I am writing this post 2 hours later. It was scary then, but it really isn't anymore. I am glad I sent this text.
