Day 74 – Playlist

I was proud and inspired by my intention yesterday. It felt so good to be completing a project so near and dear to my heart. Along that same line, for today’s intention I decided to make a new playlist in my phone entitled “Because I Can.” This will be my inspirational playlist. It will be the music I turn to if I find that I have let too much time pass in between the habits I’ve included in my life that this blog has re-inspired me to embrace - including completing my book, getting better at playing the guitar, being fluent in Italian and more. Or… I can turn to it when I want to sing like no one can hear me or begin a beautiful day.

I couldn’t possibly list them all, but just for the fun of it I will share with you some of the songs on this playlist that inspire me and get me going…

•  Shake It Off- Taylor Swift (yes…I love her!)
• I lived- OneRepublic
• Day One- Matthew West
• Try- Pink
• Exceptional- JoJo
• Don’t Stop Believin’- Journey
• The Climb- Miley Cyrus (that’s right, I adore her too – especially her song “Adore You” lol)
• Freckles- Natasha Bedingfield
• The Show- Lenka
• Girl on Fire- Alicia Keys
• Live Your Life- TI
• Wake Me Up- Avicii
• Feel This Moment- Pitbull
• Stand- Lenny Kravitz
• This is Me- Demi Lovato & Joe Jonas
• Three Little Birds- Bob Marley
• We Can’t Stop- Miley Cyrus
• Scream & Shout- will.i.am
• Realize- Colbie Caillat
• Next to Me- Emeli Sande
• All About That Bass- Meghan Trainor
• Happy- Pharrell Williams

I also love pretty much everything by Christina Aguilera, Lisa Marie Presley, Pink and Mariah and have included many songs by these talented Divas as well. Anyhow, maybe by sharing a portion of my inspirational playlist- maybe I have introduced some awesome, fun music to some of my readers. I’m still fairly under the weather so this was all I could muster for the day. I must admit, going through hearing these songs had me surely smiling. Not to mention Jen brought me Starbucks and a get well gift today (I’m so impressed by my friends). Cheers to good friends, good music and good health. #HGAL
