Seeing Life Through Fresh Eyes
Open your eyes to the life happening all around you. It’s all there—every hope, every dream, every high, and every low that life can throw at you. Don’t get caught in the trap of thinking you’re not enough or that you don’t deserve good things. You feel this way because of the stories you’ve told yourself. But there’s hope for change. When you’re in a downward spiral, it’s hard to see anything beyond the negative stuff that keeps you stuck where you don’t want to be. You feel frustrated, like you’re at the end of your rope.
I’ve been there more times than I’d like to admit. No matter how many times I think I’ve broken free from my old habits, they still sneak up on me. I find myself wandering down memory lanes that have nothing to do with my present or where I want to go. It’s taken a lot of practice to become aware of what I’m feeling and thinking in the moment. Sometimes, I get it right; other times, not so much. But I know it’s getting better. Now, I spend less time worrying and doubting my worth. That’s a win, and it’s my job—just like it’s yours—to keep stacking up those wins and get to where we’re meant to be.
Breaking Free from Old Patterns
It’s hard to break free when we’re stuck in our habits. We tell ourselves it’ll just be a quick moment, but before we know it, we’re back in that same old pattern. It’s so easy to walk the path we’ve traveled a million times. But we owe it to ourselves to evolve, to become the hero of our own story. We have to let go of old expectations and focus on where we’re going. How often do we try to control it all, to see exactly how things should go? And when it doesn’t, we fall into thinking we’re not good enough.
Embrace the New
Maybe today, let’s try to see things differently. Look at the world as if it’s all happening for you. Experience it like it’s the first time again. When was the last time you stopped to feel the back of a leaf on a tree? Isn’t it amazing to feel that tiny piece of life at your fingertips? Why not see yourself as just as amazing and live your life that way? The answers are waiting for you to find them. You’ve got this!
