Do you ask yourself these questions?
• Why is my life so horrible?
• Why can’t I have a loving and caring relationship?
• Why do I hate my job so much?
• Why can’t I love someone completely?
If you said yes to any of these questions, you’re not alone. Many people often wonder why their life is the way it is. Well, the short answer is because of your experiences and the choices you’ve made along the way. The long answer, well, that’s different for everyone.
Life is life because it can be. But what most people don’t realize is that we actually have the power to decide what kind of life we want to have. Sure, it’s true that life can be tough and throw some majorly bad situations your way, but it’s not the situation that creates the turmoil. It is your reaction and response to that situation that determines where your life goes from there. Make the same assumptions and choices and the cycle will continue.
Simply put, your attitude and perception of the world around you are going to dictate your life’s path. Have a bad attitude or a holier than thou attitude and I’m here to tell you that you’re asking for things to go badly. Now, if you have a good attitude and accept and adjust to life as it comes to you, then you’re going to have a lot easier time moving forward with hope in your heart. In short, YOU control your life and there is no one else to blame once you realize this fact.
The time has come for you to make a “decision”. Yes, a decision that will affect the rest of your life. That decision of course deals with how you would like your life to turn out right now and going forward. Yep, this very second. What do you choose right now? A better life or the same life? And if you can’t decide, then you’re not ready to give up the life you have for the life you want. If you’re ready, you’ll be screaming at the screen, “Yes, I am ready for change!”
If you are ready, then the next step is to take action and do something that will change your life immediately. You must now put your decision to the test and find out how serious you are. Do something that you would never have done before. Talk to someone you have not forgiven yet and make amends. Apply to a job you thought you didn’t qualify for and tell yourself that you deserve it. Allow only the positive and healthy people into your life and not just anyone who crosses your path and tells you they are a friend. Be selective.
Do something, anything that is different that what you’ve always done. Then and only then can you consider yourself serious about changing your life. It really doesn’t take much to see a difference because what you’ll notice is that there will be a domino effect. One change will lead to another change and so forth. Soon people will notice you’re different. Some will like it and some won’t. Oh well.
Life is too short to live it for someone else’s expectations. Do what you want for you and live a life that makes you happy.
Wishing you well,
Coach Dina Blas
