Keep on Defending Your Castle

When we say control the controllables – it is important to stay Expanded! Think of trying to unfurl a sail when are knots in the rope. It cannot be done!

Use every area of your life to make sure you are defending your Castle in every way you can think of. Stay strong using the three H’s – Heart, Humility and Hustle.

Financial: Look for ways to protect yourself, your family and your business. Trim the fat. Use the Crisis Survival Kit.

Family: Protect them and keep them safe. Help them manage THEIR fears. Communicate to them. Ask them questions and most of all love them.

Spiritual: Create or enhance your rituals, praying, meditating, and pay attention to you — breathe. Look for positives in your life daily (there is always a silver lining). Have unrelenting faith!

Social: Stay connected through social media, share jokes, use facetime, what’s app, send videos, listen to music, sing your heart out and dance like no one is watching. (Because they aren’t).

Physical: Get outside, work out, practice self-love, eat right, limit your sugar, smile and if all else fails — as Dr. Frank used to say – do naked jumping jacks.

Intellectual: Program your brain. Write three things you are grateful for every morning. Stop whining and blaming. Read something to reinforce a growth mindset. Speak with like-minded people. OWN why what I do matters. Be mindful of your words! Adjust them accordingly (I want to vs. I have to).
