Welcome to day 8 of your #CreatingJoyChallenge!!
For today’s challenge we are going to focus on how to fill YOU up, how to invest in your mind, in your life, in your personal growth and development.
We’ve talked before in this challenge about how our minds are able to change and that by changing the way we think we can literally shape the way our lives take form. This is so powerful. By learning this, we really come to recognize how powerful our thoughts are and how important it is that we think good positive things! One way to ACTIVELY create a better life is to be continuously filling our minds with good uplifting and inspiring things.
You can do this by reading good books, watching good movies, listening to personal development audiobooks, listening to good talks and seminars from motivating and successful people and many other things.
Doing this daily will little by little, consistently overtime, change the way you naturally think, shaping you into a better person.

Mentors/Coaches
There are so many amazing mentors and coaches out there with amazing programs and resources for you to learn and grow from. It is important to make sure that you are always learning from others and constantly improving yourself. Having a mentor or coach is different than just listening to someone and learning from them. A mentor/coach is someone who will keep you accountable for your growth, help you set goals, stay motivated and accomplish great things.
