#day9- January 9, 2016: "Be Bold. Be Unexpected. Be You."

That is one of the quotes on my vision/affirmation board this year! I took a peak at it before bed and it stood out to me... especially after watching the movie, "Joy," 

What an awesome movie... No spoilers, don't worry! 

One thing I'll share about myself before I continue is, I try to find the lesson in everything. In my mind, nothing happens by chance. If I come across it, it's for a reason and I'm going to find the lesson in it. Point. Blank. Period.  With that in my mind, I'll continue...

I walked away with quite a few lessons after seeing "Joy." In my opinion, the movie was a bit long and drawn out, however one thing I learned from Joy Mangano is that once you tap into your own power the sky is the limit! You literally cannot be stopped and absolutely no one can stand in your way. Joy Mangano is an inspiration, a hero! She was tested time after time with an invention that she couldn't get out of her head for years... She knew it was a good idea. Proving that to the world wasn't so easy... She wasn't your typical, self-confident, head strong woman. She was like me... A woman passionate about a dream and willing to do whatever it takes to protect it and see it succeed! She knew nothing about business. She simply had a good idea. 

She was bold when it was hard to be though... Unexpectedly brave and smart, and she didn't allow the market she was introducing her invention to change her!! It's a remarkable story and one that I was proud to learn is a true story! 

I love a good movie, but it's something about learning that the character that you are drawn to and inspired by is real. It makes defying odds and overcoming defeat seem possible! It's a great movie that I recommended to everyone! 

I walked out of that movie feeling like I could conquer the world... I felt like nothing could stop me... I am even more encouraged to...

Be Bold.
Be Unexpected.
Be Myself! 

Good stuff... It was also so refreshing to sit in front of a movie screen! Lol the things we take for granted! I am now extremely grateful for a movie theatre, chile!! Haha! 

Until next time friends, 
Stix!
