I mentioned this the other day on Instagram - that this may be one of my favorite looks I have put together for fall. This one is probably my other favorite.
Did you know you can follow me on Instagram - and see all my outfits? I link all the product info with each of the outfits I post. You can either use the LIKEtoKNOW.it app or the link in my profile for product information.
Here is round up of a some new fall arrivals and sales. I am starting to find some fall sweaters I would like to buy - like this one and this one. Also, I would really like to buy these boots.
Yesterday, I had the best day. I spent it with my mom for a lunch date and some shopping. We went to Five Guys for lunch (my favorite) and then did some shopping at TJ Maxx and Best Buy. I was looking for some decorations for my new bookshelf, and my mom wanted to get a Roku stick for her TV. I have to say my mom is one stylish lady. She looked so trendy in her look with these jeans, this quilted jacket, these sneakers, and tee.
I am so happy it is almost the weekend. And, even more excited because our weather has finally turned cooler - and it feels like fall. We had a really windy day yesterday - and the leaves were blowing off the trees and swirling around in the air. I just love this time of year! Anyone else feel the same way?
Anyone else struggle with self confidence? This is something I deal with. I waste way too much of my time thinking about how to get other's approval - worried about what others will think about me - concerned with what others are doing, and what I am not doing. I allow myself to spend some of my days feeling defeated, rather than being thankful for who I am - and my abilities and talents.
"There is an epidemic of insecurity in our society today. Many people are insecure and feel bad about themselves, which steals their joy and causes major problems in all their relationships."
"For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ." Galatians 1:10

Do you set daily goals? I should, but I have not been in the habit of putting together a daily list of goals, but I am working to change that. Recently, I have found if I make lists of the goals I want to accomplish during the day, I realize that my day is actually a lot less overwhelming. What swirls around in my head is always a lot bigger than what actually needs to be accomplished. And, getting it down on a list, makes it much easier!
I recently read this in one of my daily devotions. It talks about setting goals to develop good habits - one of those being encouraging others.
“Making people feel valuable won’t cost any money, but it gives them something worth more than anything money can buy. Offering a sincere compliment may seem like a small thing, but it gives someone tremendous strength."
"I believe in having goals. As I was working with God to develop good habits in the area of encouraging others, I challenged myself to compliment at least three people each day. I recommend that you do something similar to help you become a frequent encourager.”
I am trying to make it a goal of mine to doing something that would make someone else happy - whether it is something as small as smiling at someone as I walk by them, or helping someone find a job.
