Become the Person You want to be

When is the last time you really look at your life, where you have been, what you have accomplished and your experiences? Good question. Some of us suffer drastically with self-esteem issues and when people are rude or make negative comments about us, we find ourselves retreating within a cacoon. we feel no energy, we doubt all that we do and most of all we do not make the effort to even try new things.

Surround yourself with only people who are going to lift you higher. – Oprah

what I have learned and know for sure is that those kinds of people having many issues with their own personalities and can’t even begin to see the damage they do to others. As we are conditioned to be or act in a certain way because of upbringing, we believe our lifestyle is correct. in other words we do not see anything but our own ambitions.

“When I dare to be powerful – to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.”-Audre Lorde

what I have a hard time with is the meaning of what makes me happy. people are always saying that to me and I can’t even begin to tell you exactly what would make me happy. I have searched my entire life, never pin pointing the exact moment I am happy other than being on a beach somewhere but knowing it is only a temporary fix for an already stressful lifestyle.

I live the way I live because I have too not because I choose too. my means to an end is very difficult and nothing in my power can change it. I truly believe we shouldn’t have to live in a environment where we are completely helpless and suffer. we grasp the concept of working hard and yet still get nowhere.

Goals for the week:

• find more happy moments
• truly release regrets
• learn to not give a fuck
