Me vs Me

I am my own worst enemy. There is no one on this Earth that seems to want me to fail as much as I do. Why you ask? Because I know what I want. I know what I need to do to get it. I know what I should do to accomplish everything I want to accomplish. I know what I am capable of doing. And yet…I so often do the exact opposite of what I should, could, and want to do. Anyone else do that?

Only You - JJ Heller

I have heard quite few people talk recently about preparing for the battles that come against us. Other people that want us to do things that aren’t good for us. People that do things to us that are ugly and hateful. People that want to tear us down. I get that. Surround yourself with friends and family that will support you and build you up. Bring them into battle with you. The problem comes in when the battles happen within your own head…your own heart. What then? How do you prepare for that?

The thing about battling yourself is it is lose/lose no matter what. Even when you win it is only at the expense of yourself and your goals so once again…you lose. How do you get on your own team? How do you become a teammate instead of an opponent? I want to pick me. I’m just not sure how. Hmmm...

Tricks of the trade. I want to write a book titled that and add all of the information that I have picked up along the way. Here’s the deal, I am no expert on anything. Everything I know I know because I pay attention. I am a huge people watcher. If it was a sport I would be its best player and biggest fan. The benefit of it is I pick up little tricks along the way. The latest and greatest? The big round brush. When Sarah did my hair last time I watched as she styled it. The longer my hair gets the more it weighs and I can’t get the same body I use to out of it. She made it beautiful with the help of the big round brush (well…that and her phenomenal styling skills). I finally bought one the other day and have used it a couple times. It is…how you say…life changing? Yes, life changing. It is like I have completely different hair. Here is my round brush. 

It is made out of 100% pure Boar’s hair. That sounds gross and intriguing at the same time. I highly recommend this for anyone who is trying to get more body in their hair.
