These days, so many people want change in their life. No, they NEED change in their life. The world today has us struggling from the inside out more than ever. It has taken away our joy and ability to live our best life. Or does part of the problem starts with ourselves? Let’s talk about accountability for a second and the quote “never underestimate the power of you.”
We reach out for help, and we search for answers but sometimes those answers start with that person you’re staring at in the mirror each and every morning. To truly see a change in your life? Stop looking around you and start searching inward. Love is a verb, right? To be in love and nurture a relationship takes work. It takes communication, attention to one’s needs, affection, and sometimes forgiveness.
But guess what? The same goes for you and your relationship with yourself. Your biggest influencer, your voice of reason, and your heart’s protector are and have always been YOU!! Never underestimate the power of you. The change in your life comes down to simplicity. Changing old habits is a good place to start. Lose the negative chatter in your life. Cut strings from the people who weigh you down and find people who make you laugh and love you for being you. It’s easier to walk through life when you’re lighter on your feet. Lose what is weighing you down.
It could be as simple as turning off the news. Not disconnecting yourself from the world, in fact, reconnecting with the world (in a different way). Get out of the house. Feel the sun on your face. Just feeling the warmth of the sun on your face is a reminder of the simple joys in life. You can’t feel that by scrolling through your phone in a dark house and peeking out of the blinds now and then.
Part of changing your life can come down to letting things go. Fights with a friend or a feud with a family member. Forgive those in your life. Not for them, but to free your heart. Holding a grudge is feeding the fire. Your focus is to bring more light into your life. Break free from what’s weighing you down and forgive. What we’re doing here is making room for your heart for bigger and better things.
Lose can’t try, won’t, could, and never in your daily conversation. This is a tough one. But, if you make an effort to say will, can, and do? You will see a change. Negative repetition leads to negative results. Do the little things, plant the seed and watch it grow. Smile more, be kind and surround yourself with positive people. Transform your old repetition and slowly see the results.
Every day write down one thing that you are grateful for, even if it was a smile from a stranger or a kind gesture that day. Stay consistent, feed your heart and starve all of those things from the past. It’s time to focus on yourself and invest in yourself. It’s time to be present. Love takes work as we know and self-love can be a challenge. But, its worth the effort. Taking those steps of tearing down the negative things in your life to build a happier you? Yeah, it is so worth it.
Lose those bad habits and find your joy again. Everything in your life starts with you. True happiness comes from the inside out. Transformation happens from taking the first step. Become your biggest fan.
Unsure and second guessing if you’re strong enough to do this or put in the work? Guess what? You wanting more for yourself has gotten you this far. Have faith, you’re stronger than you think. Never underestimate the power of you and embrace today. The biggest lesson in life is learning to love yourself. Your happiness starts with you.
