Ready to Hit the Refresh Button on Your Life? Oprah's Got Some Advice
Every Sunday, Oprah is setting an intention for the upcoming week—exclusively for Oprah Insiders. Join us for reflections on themes like self-care, integrity, renewal, and more. This week, Oprah shares a message about hitting refresh in our lives.
Helloooo, Oprah Insiders!
Happy Sunday to you all. You know, Sunday is actually the perfect day to talk about this idea of hitting refresh. It’s always been that for me. It’s the day for rest, reflection, and a signal to start fresh and move forward with—hopefully—renewed energy into a new week.
There is sooooo much going on in the world right now. Mask mandates are changing all over the country as vaccination rates are going up, travel is coming back, and a return to working in the office may be in the foreseeable future for a lot of you. And as we look to this next chapter after such a long and challenging stretch, I think it’s time for us all to think about refreshing ourselves in a way that allows us to keep what matters most, turn over what we’re ready to let go of, and make room for the new in our world and our lives.
So I don’t know about you all, but I am forever changed by all of these months away from the bustle of the world. And I will forever more carefully choose what has to have my attention and what does not, because I have learned a lot of things do not.
So, when we hit that little refresh button on our computers or phones, it updates everything so quickly. And just like that—so simple. Sometimes it’s even automated so there’s not even any thinking about it. A refresh though in real life, as we know, takes effort, it takes time, it takes patience. So be kind to yourself during these days. Check in, be still until you can hear and feel the answers you need for moving forward. And always feel blessed that we survived a pandemic, and we have another chance to get things right in our daily lives—beginning right now.
Have a great week everybody!
