Each person is gifted in their own, unique way.
The Pessimist will let you know what could go wrong and inform you of potential dangers.
The Realist will point out to you where you are now.
The Optimist will suggest solutions and possibilities.
They are all valuable and absolutely necessary!!! All perspectives carry golden nuggets which can be used to enhance personal growth.
Appreciate them all. They deserve appreciation. Most people have lived through tough experiences and learned the hard way and through a lot of pain, to be able to share their wisdom with you.
At the same time ,here is an important part to consider, before you follow any advice and perspective or take it as gospel:
Does it sit well with you?
Does it feel good?
Does the advice feel empowering and supportive?
Does it feel aligned with you and with the best version of you?
Does it create enough positive discomfort to move you out of your comfort zone yet still exciting?
Does the person advising you see you ?
Remember that all perspectives are seen through each person’s eyes, based on their experiences and belief system. The person advising you is pulling the knowledge out of their reality.
We don’t believe what we see . We see what we believe.
Have you heard people saying “ I’ll believe it when I see it? “
In fact, we can only start to see things once we start believing that it’s possible for them to exist.
Have you ever seen a flying pig???
Have you ever seen a real unicorn???
Consider this :
Is their belief system aligned to yours?
Can they shift perspective enough to see and understand your perspective so they can support you in the right way for you?
Appreciate all perspectives and honour all people but only take on what resonates with you and supports you towards your growth, greater happiness and greater success.
Do not allow someone else to tell you how you SHOULD be living , what you SHOULD be doing or who you SHOULD be, if it doesn’t feel right.
Use discernment in every moment.
Your best guides are your emotions.
Do you feel seen?
Do you feel heard?
Do you feel understood?
Do you feel encouraged?
Sometimes you find incredible wisdom in someone else’s reality and it will change your life forever.
Other times you will thank them for sharing their perspective and move forward with a reminder that you’re on the right path for you.
Always be grateful for someone’s effort to support you, even if they don’t get it quite right. They are giving you their time and time is valuable.
Some people see the world as ugly and others as beautiful.
Where do you want to place your focus ?
Who do you want to be ?
Do you want to see the beautiful or the ugly?
Do you want to love or hate?
Do you want to hurt or thrive?
Do you want to appreciate and encourage or criticize and discourage?
I say :
Be aware of the ugly and focus on the beautiful.
Be aware of the dangers and focus on the solutions.
Be aware of your challenges and focus on your growth.
Be aware of someone’s flaws and focus on their gifts.
Be aware of your flaws and focus on your gifts.
Give others the love and freedom you wish for yourself .
Give yourself the love and freedom you so easily give others.
Be your partner’s biggest support.
Be your children’s biggest praise.
Be your own biggest praise.
Be your friend’s biggest encouragement.
Show up with an intention to uplift and to do that, you must feel uplifted first so care for yourself deeply. You’re important!
None of this is about being deliriously happy and unaware. It’s about being present and putting your focus where it helps you feel good and enjoy life.
The world is not perfect and neither are we . We go through challenges and ride the rollercoaster of life daily but at our core, we all want to be happy and peaceful.
We all want to feel connected and loved.
We can create who we are in every moment , through one decision, good choices for ourselves, devotion and commitment, together with understanding, appreciation and acceptance of others .
Now that’s empowering and free !!!
Smile :-). Breath is life and if you woke up today, you can MAKE IT A GOOD DAY !!!
Have your best workout.
Put your best underware on.
Wear your best outfit.
Eat the healthiest and best food.
Surround yourself with the best people.
Have the best conversations.
Take yourself to the most beautiful places.
Give your warmest smile.
Compliment yourself and others. When you change, the world changes and smiling is infectious.
I know, I know….easier said than done. We have bills to pay. We have children to provide for . We have jobs to do. Juggling everything is not easy but never impossible .
Always I’M POSSIBLE !!!!
We need good health to tend to our ‘to do’ list. Without good health, none of the above gets done so prioritise your wellbeing…physical and mental. They go hand in hand.
Happiness is a choice and requires action so choose it now and prioritise it. It is the true definition of success. You can only build enjoyable wealth on a solid foundation of good health.
I believe in me and I believe in you !!!
Have a beautiful day xxx
