Face Your Fear and Be the Change that You Want to See

Change is something that doesn't just happen overnight. You're not going to see the changes that you want immediately after starting something new; it's going to take time to get to where you want to be. The thing is, change isn't going to come on its own; you have to work for it in order to make it happen!

I didn't just start out with posts that had a couple paragraphs and a pretty graphic depicting a quote. I actually started posting these things last January, and only on Mondays. The first was a simple graphic that I had made. Pastel pink, a white box and quotation marks. All it said was, "Happy Monday! May your week be filled with nothing but good things!" That was it. That was the post. And it got no likes. Granted, I only had like 50ish followers where I posted it to, but that didn't stop me. I kept posting them. I changed the way did them a few times. I added context to go along with the image, and still got no traction with anyone.

It took a little courage to actually start posting these Morning Motivationals to Facebook. I wasn't sure how they were going to be received. I wasn't sure if people were going to like them. It was something that I had only ever shared anonymously on a site where I didn't know anyone. To share these things with people that I knew was kind of scary! I had to push that fear aside and embrace the change I was going to make. And here we are now! 

I've been told by several people that I know, that my posts have helped them, or punched them in the face with things that are relevant to their lives, and it makes me happy to know that my posts are reaching people and making a difference. It inspires me to keep going, to keep making these posts for everyone.

I now have more people that like my posts every day, and that wouldn't have happened if I didn't change what I was doing. Change is a powerful thing, and only you can enact the change that you want to see. I wanted to see more people inspired by the things that I had to share, so I needed to expand my audience. I needed a change, so I made one, and you should too. Don't let fear hold you back from making necessary changes in your life. Nothing changes if nothing changes, so be the change that you want to see.

Let Go of the Past and Embrace Change

Leave the past in the past! You won’t progress in life if you’re dragging old habits around with you. If you keep trying the same thing over and over again, and you’re not getting the results that you want, maybe it’s time to try something new. T hink of it like diet and exercise. Some diets won't work for you, just like some exercises work better for other people than they will for you. It’s all about figuring out what works, rather than doing the same old thing and becoming disappointed every time you don’t get results. In order to move forward in your life, you need to learn to embrace change. Sometimes, you can get so caught up in sticking with the things that you know, that you wind up afraid of venturing out of your comfort zone. It’s easy to stay with what’s familiar, but you have to learn to let go of familiarity and let yourself embrace the new and the unknown. You need to allow yourself to be open to new ideas and new ways of thinking. You're stuck where you are righ...

Don't Allow Your Fears To Control Your Life

Everyone has something that they are afraid of—you, me, everyone! It’s not shameful to have these fears, but you shouldn’t allow them to take precedent over your life. Things only have power over you because you give them that power. If your fears are starting to hold you back from living the life that you want, then you need to rethink how you view those fears and learn to break past them in order to move on. Your limitations are only limitations because you allow them to be. You are capable of so much more than you give yourself credit for, so don’t allow yourself to be brought down by your fears just because you’re worried that you won’t be able to overcome them. You can do anything that you put your mind to, and if that involves overcoming your fears, then you will be able to do just that! When you choose to avoid your fears and not face them, you open yourself up to even more fear, as well as limitations on your abilities. Facing your fears allows you to break free of the restrict...

Fire It Up Friday

Happy Friday! Y'all know what time it is! It's that time of the week where we list the things that we look forward to; it's Fire It Up Friday! There is so much in life to look forward to, so let's help each other out by naming the things that we're excited for. I'll start us off by saying that I'm excited to go to the beach tomorrow. Beach time is always a good time. I'm gonna have ice cream for lunch and hopefully hit plenty of waves! Life gives us so much to hope for; it's hard to see the bad when you're so focused on all of the good things headed your way. There's always something to be excited for, even if it's not your next concert or your next beach day; it can be as simple as waking up tomorrow morning to spend a relaxing day at home or being excited for your next cup of coffee.
