Just Jump...

...new motto slash fave!

SO! In my yoga-fueled-zen-like-high, (C'est possible? Or is "zen" mutually exclusive from "high") ladies and gentlemen, introducing my new motto....

For the month of December and beyond... In preparation for the billions of New Years Resolutions that I will be sure to make... I am shouting a new motto at the top of my lungs.... JUST JUMP!!!!

Yeah you heard me. (Please note, what you are hearing may just be sleep deprived Leslie speaking. Half sleep deprived due to the crazy busy but also wonderful, exciting, awesome work happenings these days, but, maybe a little bit due to the fact that this twenty-something girl has reverted back to tween years and cannot put down the Twilight books if her life depended on it!!!) Ok, tangent aside...

Just jump!

Explanation:

Too often our lives are hampered by a blanket of fears & insecurities and, irrational or rational - they are not helping us! Not one little bit!

It's time to just jump.

Here goes...

Don't be afraid of love! I LOVE love. Dear cynical and bitter (and all the rest of you out there!), none of this non-prime time date night allocation because you're not sure if you LIKE someone. You shouldn't be going on a date with someone you're not sure you like. Trust us, when it's fun, it's right, and when it's right, you should stop making Tuesday night and Friday lunch rules! Jump! Jump! Jump!

Not sure where to start with a new work project? Afraid that it won't be creative enough? Or maybe you've got such a big, crazy idea that you fall it love with it but it's completely out of scope? Well my friend, we can't just sit there... Just jump! Jump into those ideas! Play around with them. Make some magic. Nothing's going to get done if you're too unsure of anything to know where to start! Let me tell you, it's always easier to build off of what someone does, than to sit there trying to figure out the perfect starting place!

And what about absolute physical strength? Whatever your challenge (I'm pretty sure that none of you out there are quite as challenged at chaturanga's and headstands as this girl) just jump! Not literally. Not always the best idea to throw yourself up in a headstand if your neck can't take it. But jump into the challenge. Don't be afraid of the baby steps it takes to accomplish whatever your personal challenge is. Just jump is not about being stupid and taking on things that you can't handle without the proper guidance or knowledge or support. It's about facing that challenge head on (no pun intended... well, okay... maybe a little pun intended!).

Now I must apologize for what probably seems like the rantings of a crazy girl! It's just that after being buried by deck after deck after deck, sometimes you've just gotta let out the personal thoughts!

And there it is. Take it as you like!

Now just JUMP!!

x's & o's,

Leslie

Given a chance, I'm gonna be somebody. If for one dance, I'm gonna be somebody. Open the door, It's gonna make you love me. Facing the floor, I'm gonna be somebody. Be somebody. Be somebody.
