It’s Woman Day tomorrow and I think this quote is just perfect ??

Your Unstoppable Friend,

Tracy

It seems since like so many of us could use a bit more pep in our step so I am posting another motivational post for the week.

4 quotes, in 4 tones, to speak to each one of us that need a boost. Whatever you do, don’t quit. Think about this, you never actually fail until you quit. ?

Your Cheerleading Friend,

Tracy

I just got trolled on Twitter for the first time. Over what you may ask? A purse. Yes you heard me.

We will be attending the Advancing Women in Agriculture Conference in Calgary next week. We are setting up a booth so we decided to give a real nice giveaway. I was originally thinking really nice model tractor, then Jen came up with the idea to do a designer purse since not all attendees will be farmers. She also said it’s a great treat that most women wouldn’t buy themselves. I completely agreed and still agree.

I posted a video today on social media announcing the contest and showing the purse. I got trolled by a “real farm woman” who was highly offended. Over a series of tweets she proceeded to tell me that she was offended, she listed a whole list of better farm prizes (semen packages, AI services and onwards) and then wrapped it up to tell me, get this…

….,,you won’t get feedback from all of the farm women who, like me, have fought hard and continue to fight to be taken seriously in this industry. Stuff like this sets us back as a gender.

Like the class act I try to be, I thanked her for her feedback and said that I would see what the women at the event had to say. What I really wanted to say was…what set us back as a gender to when? A time when we used purses? Wait a minute…we still do. She just finished talking about hers ? Yes, I know…I am conpletely missing the point.

Ridiculous. That being said, from the strength of her rant and things she said, I imagine she has a heavy load she is carrying. Water off a ducks back. I am a farmer, a business owner (that has all females) and a female myself. I trust my intentions and I trust giving some lucky woman a Michael Kors bag will not set us back to the dark ages. Poor gal. Peace be with her!

Reminds me of this quote below that I seen and saved the other day. Turns out, it’s perfect for this situation.

#MotivationMonday “You are always one decision away from a totally different life.”

Change your thoughts…Change your decisions…Change your life. Isn’t this so true? Everything in life is a thought game. Instead of thinking “I can’t” change it to “I can.” Instead of saying “I don’t know how” change it to “how can I?”

With over 60,000 to 90,000 thoughts running through our heads, it’s a task, I know. However; thoughts, beliefs, personalities and lives are built one thought, and one decision, at a time. Really and truly. Read that again and let it sink in.

With that, I ask, what kind of life is your thinking building?

Happy Monday Everyone! You got this!!!

Your Thought Changing Friend,

Tracy
