Today is a Gift

Today is a gift, and that’s why it’s called the present! Every moment of today, you have the choice to make decisions that will better yourself and your life; no one else can make these choices for you. You need to constantly remind yourself of your end goals and make a conscious effort to reach them.

It’s easy to want to have control over everything that happens in your life, especially your future. In reality, the only moment that you have control over is the present. You can’t change the past, and your future is never guaranteed, so it makes sense that the only thing you can change is the present moment.

Only you get to determine how your life is going to go, and you do that by making decisions in the present moment. Sure, you can help to curate the life that you want to live in the future by making good choices now, but that still involves using the present moment to help yourself out.

You have to remember that sometimes things are going to happen that you have no control over; you can only control your reaction to the situation then. Life will always find a way to throw something negative at you, but how you respond to it will determine the path that you take.

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...

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.
