Note to Self

 

Oh man! Yesterday was one of those days that, AHHHHHHHHHHH (tsunamic exhale), I just wanted to scream from the roof tops: "I'm T-I-R-E-D. I need my man to bring home some veggie pizza + a chic flick to go with it please!"

 

Phewww, just writing that felt so freaking-tastic!

 

Anyhoo, yesterday's meltdown helped me come to my senses + admit a couple of things to myself I had been avoiding for quite some time now. You know? Those things that never get added to your to-do list + don't even make it to your journal? The sticky stuff you know is there + you're perpetually trying to hide?

 

Uninvited, these feelings come knocking at your door step + holy cow! they're bringing gigantic suitcases with them. Looks like they're not just here for a short visit. "Dam it! I wasn't expecting company. Don't even have avocados for my famous guacamole dip recipe - my secret host weapon. This is going to be a bumpy ride."

 

Know the felling?

 

So, as a result of yesterday's events + in commemoration of self awareness, I've made these free printable Note to Self Cards, perfect to jot down your ideas + admit anything + avoid the grand volcanic explosions that happen when we don't tune in + listen. Think of these cards as self lovin' correspondence with the person you know best: you!

 

directions

1. Download your free Note to Self Cards.

 

2. Print onto 8.5" x 11" heavy-weight paper. I like to print mine on kraft paper, but feel free to play around with different card stocks. Prints 2 cards per page.

 

3. Trim along the outside edges using a guillotine or scalpel.

 

4. Enjoy the painful pleasure of filling out your cards.

I really really need to thank my official power puff girls Erin Giles + Jess Van Den + Kristi Duggins + April Starr for holding my hand during my tweeter meltdown yesterday, LOL. Thanks ladies for de-sucking my day yesterday + making me feel special.

If you're feeling really brave, I invite you to step on up + leave your note to self below. Admit it! I promise you'll feel soooo good, specially after hitting the submit button. Ready? Let me go first. Note to Mayi #1 (oh yeah there are more coming): "Stop whining + get yourself an assistant, you're killing me sista'. Enough with the wonder woman complex." Now it's your turn. Confession time baby!

 

xo,

    Ok, my note to me: "Get OVER yourself! Stop thinking about what you want all the time and spend more time thinking about others' needs!"

    Ah, yeah. I needed that. Thanks Mayi :)

    Note to self: "You work for yourself now, so stop trying to please an imaginary manager or a poser of a ceo. Your making me look bad... just get to work!"

    That was fun and self motivating. I really do NEED to buy those notes. Getting the daily rant with myself out of my head is a MUST.

    ps* I LOVED reading everyone's notes... such funny and good stuff!
