The Shift

Dear Inspirations,

At this exact moment... everything is good. 

It's Monday and I am full of energy. I am positive. I am hopeful. 

I feel as though there will be a shift this week. 

I feel like a mountain will be moved. 

Have you ever felt like that? Maybe it's just me. 

Its a beautiful thing when you  can feel the shift before it happens. 

If you are ever able to feel the shift it's usually right after a storm or a test. 

You feel calm as if things have already been worked out in your favor. 

You feel like you've already won a battle that you've been fighting. 

I believe in that. 

I can hear God. 

I can literally feel his presence. 

Thing start to happen when you decide that you will not allow negative energy into your life. 

That's where I am right now. Why put up with negativity? 

Now I am not saying that I am positive every single day of my life. 

What I am saying is that I wake up every morning with the intentions of having a good day. 

After reading The Rhythm of life, I decide that I am going to make the most of each day.

I choose to have glitter for breakfast and shine all day honey. 

I choose to stand in the sun and let the shadows fall behind me. 

This is defined as the shift.

Let's shift together. 

Until we meet again

Because God works

Dear Inspirations, 

Why is it that when we are going through we have a hard time believing it's going to work out? 

It's not until after its worked out that we are able to relax and rejoice in what God has done for us. 

I don't want to be that person that's worried that God won't answer my prayers. In the midst of my test and in the midst of my storm I want to already be rejoicing that he has brought me out. 

I want to be so rooted in God that my faith lets me see it already worked out. 

I want it to become such a routine where I don't have to worry. 

Why can't we trust God? When our whole world is upside down, we must believe that he will fix it.

To many times as humans we sit and wonder "how am I going to make it, how will I get through this" 

Today I remind you that God has already worked it. Your life is going as planned. God has heard your cry. God has heard your prayer. No matter what the situation is.. Know that God has went ahead and answered. It's all in a matter of timing. We ask for so much and sometimes he just wants us to be patient. 

Will you believe God today? 

Will you believe that your blessing is just  on the other side of that test? 

Yes it might be hard and we might not want to go through it, but believe that it's already done! 

Happy Monday! 

The fish bowl

Dear Inspirations,  

I feel forced to think of my life as a huge bowl. 

A bowl in which I'm inside of trying to get out of. 

I've been forced to find myself sinking in this imaginary bowl or sometimes soaking like a fish. 

I saw people climbing out of my exact bowl. I saw people getting in my fish bowl too. 

I knew I wanted to be out of it. 

I knew I needed to be on the outside of this bowl. 

I could hear the voices saying "just keep swimming". 

My fins were tired. 

My heart was to small to continue. 

I knew if I gave up now there would be no story to tell. 

There would be no one that could tell my story like I would.

I was in the bowl trying to get out.

No one to rescue me but me. 

She kept swimming. 

One day she got out. 

Love 

Jasmine P.

Make someone's day

Dear Inspirations,

I spoke with a friend yesterday about a number of things. Mainly this person spoke about how at times they do things for people and they don't expect anything in return. I could agree with that statement whole heartedly.

The person also, said that at times it would be nice if someone thought of them the way they thought of others.

Could you imagine a world where everyone thought of someone else besides themselves?

I think that could possibly could bring world peace. Somehow people might react different. Somehow people might wake up in a better mood. Think about.

Whenever it's Christmas and someone gets you a gift that you didn't expect at all.
How does that make you feel?
Happy right?
What about when you find some money on the ground?
What about when someone says... "I like that shirt"
You feel like "man I am having a great day"
What about the time someone offers to pay for your food and you say "no I am ok"

And they do it anyway. These are the moments that the universe needs more of. These are the moments that could change your life or someone else’s.

I am a believer in random acts of kindness.
I am also a strong believer in showing gratitude to others.

Do we know this statement to be true?

WE ARE ALL GOING THROUGH LIFE.
Why not help make someone else’s life a little bit better?

I am not saying go out and spend your paycheck on your rude coworker.
I am not saying give a compliment to ever person you see.
I am also not saying go without for another individual.
I am simply saying...

Think of someone else.
Think of a way to help someone in need.
Think of how you can possibly make someone’s day.

P.s. It’s almost Friday.

Yours Truly

Jasmine P.

 

News Flash

Dear inspirations,

We are back at it once again with a Monday ahead of us.

 Check out the story written by a great friend of mine!

http://casilyasmith.com/dear-jasmine-p-gains-following-through-spreading-positivity-online/


I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Casilya Smith over the weekend for her homework assignment. I know it might seem like a small thing to you, but honestly it is a great honor for me. As I spoke to Casilya I felt like all of my efforts have never really went in vain and the things that I do truly matter. I use to care about reaching millions of people and now that I am older I realize that fame isn't what I want.  I am proud of the progress I have made and I am proud of where I am with DearJasmineP at this exact moment.

I told myself that this would be a great year and two months in it's already going really well!!

Thank you for believing in me. There is more to come!

Love Jasmine P.

Unleash the Beast

Dear Inspirations 

For a Monday I feel relatively good which is always a awesome thing. Despite  last week being  so hard for me mentally I made it through. I even had a few moments of "This can't be life, The struggle can't be this hard'', but it was.

You ever have a bad day and no matter how you try to get passed it seems like it just keeps getting worse? That's how last week was and I am truly glad that it is behind me.

This  week I'm looking forward to good news. Since last week was so bad I know this week will be better. I can almost feel my breakthrough coming. I am closer to victory. I am closer to my dreams. I can feel things getting better. I see myself coming out. These are the things I tell myself.

I am feeling pretty BEASTLY!

In current events...

@DearJasmineP on Instagram reached 700 followers last night. I know that might not be  much to you, but for me it feels like 700k. I started the movement really to help myself daily and then I realized how much people needed to see inspiration daily. I feel bad somedays and sometimes I can't even post because I don't believe in the message. On those days I scroll down my timeline and others inspire me. Followers like @Choran89 gives me hope to go on. I  have no idea how we began following each other, but I'm so glad we did. Although he lives in New York and I'm in Houston together we have made the perfect inspiration team. My only hope is that he doesn't stop and that he holds me to the same promise.

I love reading  all of the comments that say "thank you for this" and other positive thoughts. To all of my followers thank you for following, I hope that my truths inspire you and motivate you to chase your dreams. One day I to will follow my dreams and I hope you all remember this blog and remind me of my promise.

More good news, DearJasmineP finally has a LOGO and I am in the process of getting shirts designed! I am excited for the finish product!  Coming soon!

This week be encouraged, I know this is SO easy to say, but really try to stay positive.
Stay motivated by all of the positive things that are happening in your life. Embrace your struggle and embrace your future. Every now and again a door is closed, but its only for a new one to be opened. I know he truly has a plan for my life, for your life, for our lives! This week I challenge you to dig deep and unleash your inner BEAST!

Inspiring and Empowering all over....

Love Jasmine P. 

Cross Roads

Dear Inspirations 

Please know that all your efforts aren't going in vain, I know you might not see what's happening right now. 

"Your life is falling apart and falling together at the same time" 

I ask myself to sometimes what am I doing? 

How does this correlate with the big plan? 

I to get discourage, I to start to feel like I'm going through the motions.

This week I challenge you to believe that your on the right path. 

Of course the road looks dusty, the street signs might be missing, your car might be almost out of gas but you must keep going. 

This is so hard to type its even hard to say out loud. I'm battling with my inner self as we speak. 

I can. You can. We will. 

Thank you to my friend who reminded me of my dreams and encouraged me to keep going. 

Love Jasmine P. 

More.

Dear Inspirations,

The more I think about it, the more I hate this.  

The more it fustrates me.

The more I want to be in another place.

The more that I need life to hurry and fix itself.

The more I need GOD to fix this for me.

The more I think about it, the more I hate this.

I know whatever is up next for me has to be better than just this.
It has to be a better day a head of me.
Life must be getting ready to take a turn.
It has to be.

The more it fustrates me.

The more I want to be in another place.

The more I want more

The more I must find a way to leave.

That's what I tell myself.
Just has to be another way.

Forgive me for my moment.

Love Jasmine P.

Hope (Two years)

Dear Inspirations,

Yesterday marked two years that I graduated from college and began my journey as a real adult. Graduation had so many emotions running through my body that day. I think for the most part I was extremely excited and nothing could take that joy away from me.

Well, two years later I am still not where I want to be in my career. I work a job that isn't to rewarding at times and most of the days it feels like a chore that I have to do. I have been applying for two years literally and nothing has really looked up. Yes, it's very discouraging at times to keep going but somehow week after week I go. Can you imagine week after week applying and hearing nothing? Can you imagine getting those letters "blah blah blah, thank you for applying we found a better canadate blah blah"? Yea, I have seen so many of them in the past two years.

Yesterday marked my two years post grad and it also felt like it marked a turning point in my life. I went on a interview for a company and a position that I know I am qualified to do. The interview went well and at the moment I felt hopeful. Yesterday I found hope. Now don't get me wrong I am Positive Patty and Motivational Mandy most days but in my mind sometimes I am I often fighting
myself thinking like Negative Nancy and Down Debbie. I believe that's human and that we all feel like that sometime.

I don't know if I got the job yet and I won't find out until January but that moment gave me hope.

I challenge you to find hope. To move forward in your life and keep applying yourself. The world is a cruel place at times but look for hope. To all of my grads live in this moment and don't ever give up.

Love Jasmine P.
