Overwhelmed

Over the past several weeks I’ve noticed that I can be so happy and focused one minute and the next minute upset, impatient and frustrated.  Seems pretty bipolar, but a case study I am not!  I think I am just overwhelmed.  Overwhelmed with making career decisions, current job decisions, friendship/ relationship decisions, school decisions, money decisions, the list can go on.  But how do I get out of this anxiety that sometimes overwhelms me so much that I have to take a “time out”?  No matter how much you try to relax and stay calm the nerves have a tendency to take over.  Ugh! So annoying, I must do better.  I was told frowning gives you wrinkles and that’s something we won’t have. 

Next time you’re feeling overwhelmed with anything remember this little quote I read on twitter, “when you’re at peace everything is at peace with you. Peace= (P)ositive (E)nergy (A)lways (C)orrects (E)rrors." @RevRunWisdom

Wooossaaaah

All The Time it’s On My Mind

At work, at home, on the road, grocery store, nail salon, ugh the list can go on. But I can’t help it, no matter how often I may get it; I am thinking about the next time, it’s always on my mind.  I don’t think I have a problem because the definition of a nymph is a bit extreme however, the mental thought process of a nymph… Yes, I can relate on certain levels.   From reading sex novels, viewing porn’s, sex shops, pleasure toys, position flash cards, and the concept of sex is just truly amazing (safe sex of course).

There isn’t anything more beautiful than two bodies of passion coming together intertwined, experiencing a high orgasmic emotion of life.  From the planned out, lingerie, pair of sexy heels, hair done, make up done, soft music playing, candles lit, luring your partner in, to the lock of  eyes, random “we”  can’t control the emotions, rough, wild, crazy love making. Living room, kitchen, stairs, where ever we may land, uncontrollable hormones raging sex. Oh the sensation! 

“Sex is an important aspect of any healthy, romantic relationship, so when there's trouble in the bedroom, it could signal trouble in the relationship,” sex experts say(doctoroz.com). I completely agree. Have you ever been in a relationship and the sex wasn’t the best and you still were overjoyed in that relationship? Now, I am not saying sex is the MAIN reason to stay in relationship or not stay in a relationship, but in my book having a ‘great’ relationship PLUS having a good healthy sexual relationship can only enhance and expand that relationship, mind, body and soul interaction. 

The act of sex alone cannot fill that void however; the foreplay is defiantly a mandatory plus as well.  Many people forget about that, and foreplay not in the literal sense but also in a spicing the vibe up kind of way. Sending your partner cute little flirty text messages, sending naughty pics (although nowadays one must be careful), leaving little notes around the house, mid day phone calls briefly describing each other fantasies.  Everyone needs a little excitement and spice.  

"Men don't realize that foreplay is a 24 hour event. You've got to plan ahead. A lot of it is we don't put emphasis on it. If it's sort of at the end of the day when you have time, it doesn't happen. It's got to be a very, very important part of a relationship. When a couple stop having sex, it's often correlated with problems within the marriage as well. Sex has other roles. It brings together people. It's that zen experience we all crave in life but you get it naturally. If you don't do it right, then of course it doesn't have that effect."- Dr. Oz.

I heart Dr. Oz, he knows lol. 


What’s Your Motivation?

Everyone in life no matter what your career path is, or personal goals, or even relationship status, need a little motivation. As an artist, I need a constant flow of motivation to produce work. Easier said than done. There’s spurts of high energy and motivation, where nothing stands in my way and I can do anything and go anywhere. Then there are times where motivation is a foreign word to me. I know what I have to do, so the question is, why not do it? Is my source of motivation not strong enough?

 

If you are going through it like I am, what is your source of motivation? Is it family, friends, better living conditions, need a change, proving someone wrong, or is it just for you and your peace of mind? What ever it is, make sure its true and dear to you and the driving force behind your actions and not just an empty reason because you feel you need to have one. I am learning that a support system is very helpful in keeping your motivation. Surrounding yourself with people with similar goals, or who understand what you are trying to accomplish, whatever that may be, and are a positive force in your life helps a tremendous amount.

Find what motivates you; what truly in your heart of hearts, motivates you. Write it down on a sticky note and put it somewhere you will see it every morning when you wake up or where you will always have it in view. When you have those moments where you feel your motivation dwindling, read your note, hold your head up, and push on. Because in the end all your hard work and energy will pay off.

Make that Money$$$ Save that Money $$$

Being 25 has taught me one phenomenon so far... Age 30 is knocking on my window!!!! I may be young but I'm no longer a "baby" and I can't use my age as an excuse for my actions any longer. I have realized I really need to get my finances in order. Starting as young as possible with saving and investing can eliminate majority of the stresses and depressions people have in their older years, which is money. A lot of people say they "want money" "want to be rich" but only one percent of the population actual does it. Many just stick to their 9am to 5pm and do what they can. That is perfectly fine if it suits you and your lifestyle, but if you think working that 9am to 5pm is going to make you rich, please Go to Jail and Do Not collect $200. Working for other people will not make you rich yet alone wealthy. And yes people there is a HUGE difference between rich and wealthy. Rich is temporary, wealth is forever- figure out what you want your status to be. All it takes is an idea, after that the rest is up to you. If I'm making it sound so simple, that's because it is, ONLY if you’re obsessed with it; cross reference back at the previous blog “I am Obsessed” and learn how to grind on your goals and aspirations.
