Zombie Apocalypse + Compound on the Homebound

This probably doesn’t come as a surprise to you…

As some of you know, I run a solar company as my full time job. I had no idea, how many people I would meet that were preparing for the world to end. A Zombie Apocalypse, to be more specific.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not that bad… Some customer’s genuinely just wanted it for the benefits solar brings. So after a year of being there, we finally put solar on our house.

We installed the biggest battery system we could, just in case we needed it. It was an expensive investment, but WELL worth the peace of mind.

I’m curious, have you considered solar? If you own your home, you should. It detaches you from relying on the grid. In California & part of the West Coast, they have black out periods where the grid just shuts down. It will eventually make it’s way through the US, I’m sure.

I’m now looking into rainwater preservation, & it hit me today… I’m one of them 😅

A stinking prepper.

Can you relate to this or am I the only one? I know this group is mostly for beginners — but I can’t be alone, right?

Okay, I’m switching gears a little. I like to add a little personal & a little homestead into emails so you can find a lesson or two through these.

I’m really big into personal development. It’s my vice, I love it, it’s impacted so much of my life. I could not be more grateful for the evolution I have had.

Compounding Emotions — have you ever heard of it? Let me explain.

When you wake up from a bad night sleep, you mention it, right? To your partner, kids, coworker, etc. maybe you also mention you have a headache. Then your jacket gets caught on the door, your kids can’t put their shoes on fast enough, you spill your coffee — it ALL compounds.

We’ve been there right?

This is compounding events, drawing connections to unrelated events that likely would’ve happened if you had a great night sleep. You just may have had more space to hold these unrelated events.

SO if you can do it with unfortunate events, you can do it with fortunate events. You wake up, you CHOOSE to view your night as great, you’re excited to make breakfast, kiss your kids on the head, you play a game to get out of the house, it’s allllll going according to the space you held for them. You seek cool animals in the clouds, the flowers are blooming, you LOVE life today.

Compound your emotions this week. Tell people you’re having a great day. What happens when you tell someone you’re having a bad day, they say WHY. What happens when you tell someone you’re having a great day, they say WHY.

I can’t explain the difference I had in my day when I started doing this on a regular basis. What’s your emotional language to yourself & others? Are you a negative Nancy or a positive Polly?

I’m both, & I work really hard to bring out the best of myself everyday. This helped so much.

I love that you’re here, I hope this made a difference in your week! Remember to compound positivity this week, you got this! See you on the next round
