Take a Look Inside Yourself

0

Incapable….

Inadequate…

Failure…

Not good enough….

Not worthy…..

Unlovable….

Not pretty enough…..

You can’t do it….

Ever heard any of those things before? I bet you have because I have too. And you know where they come from nine times out of ten? YOU! If you wouldn’t say these things to your spouse, your friend, your child, then why in the world would you feed these negative thoughts to yourself? (And if you are saying these things to anyone else, then sis, you need to work on your attitude)

The most debilitating thing we can do to our psyche is feed it negative trash talk. After a while, you start to believe these things. Hey, we all have things we would love to change about ourselves, but Rome wasn’t built in a day! And some things are not meant to be changed. I believe that there are ways to work on and improve ourselves and I am a big proponent for self-improvement. But learn to accept WHO you are, and build on that! You want to get healthy- then work out and eat better! You want to become more spiritual- learn to pray and read your Bible. You want to improve your relationships around you- learn to be happy with yourself first.

Every night before bed, get in the habit of telling yourself something you love about yourself, or something positive you did for the day. I am all for spreading kindness like confetti and telling others what they mean to you. But we have to take care of ourselves too! YOU. ARE. IMPORTANT!

Capable….

Adequate….

Success….

MORE than good enough….

Worthy….

SO very loved….

BEAUTIFUL….

You can do it!….

Change your thoughts, change your perspective, change your outlook…and you just might change your happiness.

Heather Seay
:: In Loving Memory :: Heather lost her battle with cancer in September 2025. She was a big part of the Nashville Moms team, and had been with the site since its launch in 2014. In 2022, she took on an even bigger role by becoming a content creator on the executive team. She loved being involved with the site, and was an important part of everything we do at Nashville Moms. She was a joy, a wonderful person, and a great mother. She will be deeply missed, and leaves a big hole on our Nashville team. ___________________________________________________________ I’m a proud single mom to two amazing daughters—Madison, who’s starting her next chapter at Baylor, and Ellie, who keeps life fun and full of energy. I work as a Senior Manager of Renewals for a software company based out of Austin. Murfreesboro is home, and I love the balance of suburban life with quick access to Nashville. Faith is a big part of my story, and I stay active at LifePoint Church, Riverdale campus. I’m also a lifelong Blue Raider, always cheering for my alma mater MTSU. The last couple of years have shaped me in big ways—I’m a cancer fighter and hopeful soon survivor, learning daily to celebrate life, find strength in faith, and appreciate the little moments with my family. If it’s fall, you’ll probably find me decked out in two-tone blue, cheering on my beloved Titans. Football is my happy place, though I love all sports. And when it’s time to slow down, you’ll catch me curled up with Gilmore Girls—because yes, I’ve watched it more times than I can count, and it’s officially a lifestyle at this point!
