I spent a lot of years inflicting pain and suffering on myself.
Decisions after decisions until I was stuck and afraid.
I lost my way.
Lost my drive.
Lost my passion.
I was living a life of quiet desperation.….. something I thought I would never do.
But one day, I got help.
It was not what I’d hoped for, but it was what I needed.
I had nothing to lose, so I gave myself the green light and jumped!
From there, things got a whole lot better from there.
It wasn’t easy, but it was worth taking that leap of faith.
We all get knocked down in life.
And it hurts.
But no matter how “let down” you feel don’t let the negative emotions drag on longer than necessary, and don’t get stuck in shame and regret.
Instead, bounce back and find ways to invest in your most valuable asset – YOU!
- Find Your Why: Purpose is a powerful thing. It gets you up in the morning and keeps you awake at night. Purpose answers this question: how is someone else’s life better when they cross your path?
- Read a Great Book: Great books are like prepackaged boxes of ideas, painstakingly put together by a brilliant author for you to assimilate. Why not take advantage of this amazing resource?
- Find a Mentor: Mentoring relationships are a powerful source of knowledge, inspiration, and connections – don’t miss out!
- Manage your time: It’s the old urgent-versus-important problem. We spend our time dealing with small, urgent issues when we should be focusing on important tasks. Social media is a great tool and resource but it can take you down a rabbit hole and suck your time.
- Discover your Strengths: What are you doing when you are at your best? This question is deceptively simple but incredibly powerful. The most successful people in the world have discovered the things they are best at and build their working lives around those strengths.
- Be Thankful: Taking five minutes each day to list three things you’re thankful for trains your mind to look for the positive. Maintaining a positive mindset makes you more productive and effective in your work.
Nourishing yourself in every way possible will help you blossom and grow into the person you are meant to be. We all have our purpose here and special paths to follow.
The better you are, the better your results will be!!!
“It takes courage to grow up and become who you are meant to be.”
