QUESTIONS WE SHOULD PERIODICALLY ASK:

How have I dis/honored myself as of late?

How am I giving away my power? To who/what?

Am I living according to my own integrity?

What do I dislike in others? How does that show up within me?

What does self-neglect look like in my life?

Which attitudes do I hold about myself? how do the people I attract help perpetuate them?

what is stopping you from doing what you want to do now? most of the time there is nothing stopping you but yourself. everyday you have a choice to break the cycle or repeat. what do you want to do? stop waiting, stop telling yourself “ill do it in 5 minutes” and never do. this type of mindset limits your potential.

if there is something that has been constantly on your mind, pursue it. nothing can go wrong once you start becoming a better version of yourself. this is YOUR life, nobody else’s. you get to have a say in what you want in your life and what you want OUT of your life do not let people’s opinions stop you from doing what you want to do, do not let the comfort of your mindset stop you from doing what you want to do.

DO IT NOW! start with the fear, start with a shaky hand, start with doubts, start with insecurity because guess what? once you start and never look back you’re going to be so happy with yourself.

you are allowed to be proud of the victories that no one else can see. like showering without completely hating your body, not breaking into tears at the thought of the future, talking yourself out of a dark mindset, calming yourself down in public, or like waking up every single day and choosing life. be proud of the progress no matter if it is visible for others or not. you’re doing great, keep up the good work!
