Jessica's Daily Affirmation
Have you ever seen this video? Clearly, a lot of people have, as it's sitting at 7 million views... but I must have missed the viral craze on this particular one. I just saw it the other day, and I LOVE IT. What a brilliant way to start the day!
How many of us get bogged down in self-doubt, in what the world tells us is true about ourselves? How many times do we focus on everything we aren't, everything we can't do, everything we don't have? And then this little girl comes along with a chant about everything that's wonderful about her, everything that's great about her life, in this morning pep talk to set her off on her day.
Oh my gosh, we should do that!! How much happier and enthused and productive and successful would we be with 2 minutes in the mirror, telling ourselves how much we have, how much we are, how much we can do? How much brighter would the world seem?
Go do it. Go do it right now. Get up... go look in the mirror... and tell yourself five things that are good about you, your life, your relationships. Tell yourself five things you're fantastic at. And then tell yourself you can do anything good!
And then go do it.

My sister and I found Jessica right before she went viral. LOVE her! We made her into a ringtone for our phones and I hear her whenever my sister calls. I use it as an alarm on my phone and woke up all the 6th grade girls at Outdoor Education camp. They love her too. They had me write down the video name so they could look her up. When I have a bad day, I pull her up on my phone and listen to her. I never fail to smile :)
