Babe! This is hard for me too. Actually one of the hardest things for me is the pull between growing and being bad at things. I hate being bad at anything.
I almost always choose growth (I am not perfect), but it is the hard choice for me. The feeling of being stagnant propels me into the choice to grow and learn but do I ever hate being new and bad at things.
I love to feel like I know what I am doing, I mean don't we all.
How does the word surrender make you feel? What kinds of feelings does it evoke? Do you feel release, letting go, stress free? Or do you feel like you are giving up and not caring? It could be any of those feelings but either way could be negative or positive?
If you have a feeling that you should be doing something or ending something or saying something but you are waiting for a sign. A sign that is something outside this feeling, a sign to confirm this feeling, well I have news for you babe. This is the sign that you are looking for. What you are actually looking for is the courage to do the thing. You are looking for someone or something to tell you that you are brave enough to listen to your own inner voice, intuition, your knowing; whatever you wish to call it.
Building the life of your dreams isn’t easy but it can be simpler than you think. First you have the dream, then you work hard but mostly you believe in it and yourself. Believe so hard that there isn’t a doubt in your mind, soul and body that it is yours, it is your birthright and it is coming to you.
I know that I do. I desire to be a woman that does life the way that feels good for me, not because it makes other people feel safe.
You get a choice in every moment in your life and you can choose the life that is truly calling to you or you can follow the path that has been nicely set out for you. It could be easier but it might not be fulfilling and if it isn’t going to fill you up, then is it really easier?
First let’s look at your goals, are they realistic and sustainable? It is going to be much more sustainable to make small changes that you can consistently stick with. So, if you never worked out before, start by adding in 3 x 30 mins workouts a week with a rest day in between each. Next add a 30 mins walk on the 2 rest days, then take your workouts up to 45 mins etc. Keep doing this over time and adding in something more each month until you have something that feels good and is sustainable.
I hope that you have made some time for fun this week. Joy, Play, Fun, Dancing. So as you are focused and crushing it with your big goals, make some time in your schedule to have a mid afternoon dance party, go for a walk outside, catch up with a friend for matcha lattes or something else totally for fun!
Mmmm, did you feel that? You are so loved. You are so loved. This is often truer than we realise. We are loved by our family, friends, partners, pets but are we loved by ourselves? Â
And it is often sneaky, you think that you love yourself, but do you? I always thought that I loved myself but, really did I? I was critical of how I looked, how I sometimes reacted to things and often things that I did weren't really good enough. Is that self-love?
Such a small set of words but babe do they ever have a big meaning.
Choose to use your voice instead of letting the world or your world, create a life, opinions and choices for you with it's echo. If you don't make the choices, then someone else is.
Be intentional about every step you take, every word that you use, every person in your life, every habit that you have because every choice you don't make....it isn't your choice and your life should be nothing if not a collection of all of YOUR choices.
