We tend to write from a place of pain, or the joyous perspective after.
Think about your favorite song – what’s the message?
There are so many songs that exist purely about heartache, life.
Tears are words meant to be written.
I’m sitting here on a Thursday afternoon, at a local bar (drinking water with lemon) after lunch with my team. I am still feeling so many many feels about what happened, my own heartache and alllll of the things that happen around me, beyond my control.
It’ll take time until it doesn’t sting so much – and the hurt is beyond bearable at times. I don’t know how such a love could coexist with that amount of hurt.
Life is constantly changing, and if yours…simply isn’t, if you’re still sitting in the same spot – I want to ask –
Are you doing what it is you really want to do?
If you are not surrounded with the people who push you to do better, to go after what you want, who’ve got your back while you do your thing, who are there to listen as you reassess and follow the path that aligns with where you want to go – who are you with?
At some point in your life, you get tired of unhealthy connections. As you grow, certain people’s behaviors become intolerable…and that’s okay.
I launched my first podcast yesterday. That was fucking cool.
Was it perfect? No, but it was a step.
I’ve been writing this blog for eight years – you’ve walked through so much with me.
Marriage is hard.
Divorce is hard.
Choose your hard.
Obesity is hard.
Being fit is hard.
Choose your hard.
Being in debt is hard.
Being financially disciplined is hard.
Choose your hard.
Working for the boss is hard.
Working for yourself is hard.
CHOOSE YOUR HARD.
Life will always be hard but your can choose your path, that’s the exciting part. YOU are the only one holding yourself back.
Taking the first step is hard, continuing on your path, and not giving up – is hard…but so is staying in the same miserable place.
Choose your hard.
Take some steps to shift your mindset to be in better alignment to where you would like to be:
Be grateful.
Let go of control.
Start attracting instead of chasing.
Connect with what you love.
I don’t want to be around anyone who takes me out of my character. I just want to laugh, live my life, love, & prosper.
I want people around that I can trust, with my whole heart.
People I can grow with…that have genuine love for me.
Sending you SO MUCH love!
