To live a great life, there are some important rules to remember. It is easy to get stuck on the small things or to fall into self-doubt or unhealthy habits. When we want to live a life where we can truly flourish and thrive. We have to be willing to step out of our comfort zone. We have to be willing to try new things and to push ourselves past what we think is possible.
If you feel stuck or you are struggling to take the next step towards your goals either with health or fitness, building your business or career committing to these life lessons may give you the motivation you need. These lessons are based on a YouTube video by Carla Harris that inspired me to share this with you and break down her points so you can more easily incorporate them into your life.
The truth is you can do anything you set your mind to. If you are passionate about something don’t let other people tell you whether or not it is possible. When you let others dictate your life you give your power away. If you want it, go for it! When we fear rejection or care what others think in regards to our goals and dreams, we lose touch with our true self who is more capable and powerful than we know.
We need to make time to relax and reset to succeed. If we continue to burn the candle from both ends, we will burn out. We live in a culture that encourages us to work harder, longer, and faster, but this can cause us a lot of damage. We have to make time for rest and fun so we can recharge. We can’t pour from an empty cup; self-care is key to success.
Don’t be scared to go after your goals and dreams; you do not need anyone’s permission. They say it is easier to ask for forgiveness then it is to ask for permission.
When you go after your dreams and are apologetically you, this may scare some people. They may not be able to handle your light, or passion for life and this is okay, don’t change who you are because other people are not comfortable with it. Instead, find the people who celebrate and inspire you. It takes a lot of courage to be yourself and this scares a lot of other people, this has more to do with them then it does you.
It is easy to skip over the victories and to continue to go for the big goal, but this is a mistake. We have to stop and savor the small wins for they will give us the motivation to continue going. This is your life, make sure you notice the small victories and celebrate them.
We all make mistakes; it is how we learn. Failures teach us lessons, and what is important is that we get them. If we do not make mistakes, we will never succeed.
Life is a journey, and we don’t know how long we have here, so be sure to enjoy all of it even the more challenging and painful aspects of life. This can be done more easily if we truly love ourselves and practice self-compassion and mindfulness. Don’t wait to be happy, but instead choose happiness now.
This is your real life; we do not get a do-over (that we know of) so make sure you create a life that you love. You are the author of your life, so be sure to write a story that you are passionate about.
