Main Story-

Be the BEST YOU today!


This inspiration came to me early this morning. I was making my bed and I was thinking of a situation I had recently experienced.


I made a business call and was greeted by a person who seemed was not having a good day. It was apparent in the tone and the way he gave his greeting. I went ahead and told him my reason for calling and he was quiet. I thought "Did we disconnect?" No, he just was not answering. This was definitely odd.


I like to try to understand what's going on before jumping to any conclusions, so I figured he was not in his happy place. I heard breathing, so I knew he was still there, so I continued talking about who had recommended me and such. He finally said something. I was completely thrown off by how cold and disconnected he sounded.


After we talked for 5 minutes, I knew this was not a contact I was comfortable working with. That's ok, I'll move on to Plan B, no problem. I got to tell you though, it stuck with me the rest of the day.


I was thinking about how so many times we experience a situation where we really don't know what is happening on the other end of a phone call. I thought "Was He sick?" Did he just get bad news? Was he hungry? " I don't know, but I DO know he was very disconnected with Himself therefore creating a disconnection with anyone he would be in contact with.


So many times, we experience this type of situation and although not pleasant, it is good to feel compassion for them, understanding their disconnection. I don't say anything to them, I just listen and understand, then help if I can or move on.


This got me thinking about our Individual Connection.

It's ok to have a bad day, or sick day, etc. this is a part of our life journey. However, the only way to Be the BEST YOU Today is to practice! Just like anything else in life! We practice our sports, our plays, our scripts, our recipes, etc, but how much do we practice our BEST Selves?


I like that this situation brought inspiration for today's talk.

But how does one Get Started on this Today? Taking the first step is key. This will lead you to more inspiration .


  1. Set the Scene- You have to think of this as if you are the Producer in your own movie. How would you want to portray your BEST SELF? Think about it for a moment.... Okay, Perfect... this is the Best version of You to start practicing with.

  2. Have a Positive Attitude!- Everything is so much better when you can see the glass half full! Being positive attracts more positive things, people and circumstances to you. There is ALWAYS many things to feel positive about.

  3. Impress YOURSELF! - In order to become better versions of ourselves, we must think of how we would be impressed by someone else's kindness, then find new, positive ways to Be Good, Be Kind, and Be LOVE to yourself and others.

  4. READ to be Inspired- Read, Listen, Watch for things that inspire you to be the BEST version of YOURSELF. This will help bring you closer to the PURE YOU that you are. Understanding WHO YOU ARE, opens doors and ideas to connect to, bringing you closer to the YOU, that you were born to BE!

  5. Don't Fall back to your Old Self Habits. It's easy to give in. It's easy to fall into old habits. Maybe the old version of you needed to clean up a little or a lot, whatever you did that you felt was not right, here is where practice the Better YOU helps. Practice the NEW YOU! The Better YOU. The improved version of YOU that You want to see. Don't fall back, keep moving forward.


By Practicing these 4 simple ideas, you can begin to connect to the BEST YOU TODAY! When you live the best version of yourself, you move others to try new things.


Friends, life is our Adventure, let's be the BEST we can BE and help make this world a wonderful place for everyone.


Peace and Love,


Belynda Farias

Plan B looks good....Practicing Flexibility!

  • Mar 24, 2021

Welcome to the Good Morning Life

A daily blog and micropodcast about Everyday living, Fresh Ideas and Delicious Recipes for a happy and healthy life!

I’m your host Belynda Farias. Today is Wednessday March 24, 2021. (day 83)





Main Story-

Plan B looks good!.....Practicing Flexibility




Good Morning! Today's post is about flexibility.


Many times we think we have everything all planned out and for the most part, they look good. But there are times that just don't follow our plan... that's when we call on

Plan B.


Flexibility is an important trait as we build resiliency and can bounce back from just about anything. But how does one become flexible?


If you've listened to any of my podcasts, I love to play games, the game of Life that is and I really enjoy it. What I'm saying is to become more flexible in what Life brings to you, You have to look at it like a game.


I love to be a detailed planner. I love to plan meetings, events, parties, vacations, field trips and such. However, even with all of my planning, I have learned to be very flexible, because things happen and you have to be prepared... anytime.... all of the time. This is where Plan B, C or D really come in handy.


Talk about over planning right? Having multiple plans as backup sounds like maybe a bit too much right? Well in my book, I feel well prepared and that is not a bad thing. Could this be control? Trying to control my events and circumstances? Maybe, but I'm not stuck with any of my plans... if one of them works, great! and if not, I move on.


This is being flexible, this is playing the game, this is TRUST in the Universe that all good will come my way in all I do.


As you know from my post the other day, I talked about my new chapter. An opportunity to open a restaurant and build my own chain. As incredible as this sounds and long hours of hard work in the pre-planning stages, yesterday I was given a new idea of thought. I though I had it all, the charts, the layouts, the details... only to be told by the Environmental Health Manager that maybe I should think about a new space, one that already has everything I need, rather than start from scratch. He went on to give me leads of places as well. I had not thought about this, I had been planning my current location and remodeling, rather transforming it into a new magical place.


At first I was thrown off. This was not my plan. But I listened and listened some more. You see He is the expert and knows these areas very well. I'm just a new chess piece learning the game. But I don't mind. I listened to his views and also listened to my inner guidance. What feels good is most certainly the pathway I am going to be taking....


I made a few calls and now I'm waiting. Friends, I don't know where this is going, it's like being on a raft and I just veered off into a new direction, but I'm strapped in, I'm safe, and I'm enjoying the ride....


Today is a new day, filled with new ideas. I love the discovery of the newness in my day, knowing it will align with my dreams, my plans and my life adventure.


Flexibility is an important key to success! One must be ready for any adventure. So, Friends... do not be afraid of the wrench in the gears... it's an opportunity to meet a new mechanic that will help explain a new point of view. One that may open new doors for you to explore, to ponder on... to discover a new side of you......and really, you'll never know what amazing adventure awaits you, if you don't practice Flexibility.


It's been another amazing chat with you! Wishing you a Fantabulous Day Friends! See you tomorrow!
