Radical Hospitality and Zig Ziglar’s Wisdom on Self-Improvement

Hi, Happy Asses! It’s Karen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me on My Happy Ass Life. Today, we're diving into the power of choices and how they shape our lives. I had a moment of reflection that I want to share with you—how when we don’t actively choose, we end up living by default, letting others decide for us.Key Topics in Today’s Episode:Living by Default: When we don’t make conscious choices, we let others dictate our lives. Let’s take control and make intentional decisions to create joy, peace, and hope.Zig Ziglar’s Wisdom: Inspired by Zig Ziglar, we explore doing something to improve or worsen our lives in the next seven days. It's up to us to choose positivity and growth.Dealing with Stress: I recently had a vasovagal response that forced me to stop and rest. It made me realize how stress affects us physically and the importance of managing it.Personal Story: Flipping through my late husband Hugh’s Big Book from AA, filled with notes and thoughts, reminded me of the importance of radical hospitality and unconditional support.Today’s Affirmation: I’m reading an old affirmation about the miracle of breath I wrote after COVID-19. It reminds me to breathe in grace, love, peace, and kindness.Encouraging Wrap-Up: Let’s live intentionally and mindfully, taking deep breaths when stressed. Remember, what we breathe in, we breathe out.
