In your head, there is a story playing. It’s kind of like the soundtrack playing in the background of a movie. It creates a powerful, emotional experience in your head.

Be Conscious of the Story You’re Rehashing

The stories you tell yourself dictate what’s happening to you. It says a lot about how you respond to events. The story becomes so seeped in your subconscious that most of the time you’re not even aware it’s playing. It’s running on auto pilot.

Have you driven to work day after day and suddenly you’re barely aware of the turns you’re taking? You’ve taken the same route so many times that you automatically make the right turns.

Your mind works in a similar way.

Is Your Story Supportive of You?

This leads me to the next point. What is your story? Is it supportive of you? Does it uplift you? Are you telling yourself constantly you’re not good enough? Are you telling yourself that you have to struggle and work hard for everything in your life? Or you can’t fall in love because he or she always ends up leaving you?

Depending on the story, it can be limiting your potential. It carries over in every area of your life. Why not change the story you tell yourself, so you can transform your life. This is your choice. You can make any story yours, why not select a positive one?

When I was growing up and even until recently, my family liked to keep what was going on at home private. It had to be a total secret. The challenges had to be preserved only within my family. I can understand that point of view. It’s easier and sometimes helpful to just internalize those feelings and challenges.

Are You Keeping Secrets?

If the answer is yes and especially during trying times, keeping your challenges and what’s going on in your life can trouble you. The pain and emotions you feel gets all internalized. And without your realization, it turns into shame.

Voicing Your Feelings is the Best Thing You Can Do

This shame eats away at your self-esteem and self-worth. You are crumbling inside, but since you can’t express your challenges and pain openly, you start to create facades. You pretend everything is alright.

This habit has been ingrained in me since childhood. My parents to some extent have created this. I also take responsibility for it. I became embarrassed and shameful about when I was going through challenging moments.

It’s only when I realized this: Voicing your feelings is the greatest gift you can do for yourself. Get yourself help. Talk to a friend. Journal about it. Do whatever it requires to get things out of your system.

Own Your Truth

Your challenging experiences are nothing to be ashamed about. Your pain is nothing to be shamed about. You are a complete human being, so you will have complete experiences. You will feel pain, love, confusion, happiness, sadness. Own your truth instead. It sets you free.

In my journey of healing myself and learning to create an amazing life for myself, I came across a danger, too. The danger of trying to fix yourself constantly.

You are Not Perfect, But You Don’t Need to Fix Yourself

You are not perfect and always on a journey, going through your ups and highs. The beautiful and challenging experiences both teach you valuable lessons and impart wisdom.

It’s true that every moment and phase in your life is a learning process and you can always seek improvement in any area. But you don’t need to fix yourself. Because that can become an addiction. You can then start looking for reasons to fix yourself. Reasons that don’t even exist…

You Are Good Enough

You don’t need to fix yourself because the truth is you were always good enough. You just had to tap into that magical love and power in your self. I have learned an abundance of lessons and wisdom through my studies and programs. And the one message that keeps popping up is how I have always been worthy. From the moment I was born.

It’s a different story that I didn’t tap into that belief. But it was always there.

You Are a Work of Progress

You are in a constant process of change and evolution. Step forward and apply the knowledge you have gained and use it in your everyday, real life.

I picked up this line from an interview I was listening to: Make your decisions now about who you want to be.

This resonated deeply with me. We wait too long to become who we want to be. Why do we wait?

Fear Stops US

We feel scared and the fear gets the best of us. We assume that we can’t be the vision we see for ourselves.

It’s natural to have fear, but it becomes dangerous when it gets in our way every SINGLE time.

Make Your Decisions Now About Who You Want to Become

Start making decisions about who you want to be for every part of your life – career, romance, friendship, finances, etc.

I highly encourage you to write down your desires or better yet, intentions, for the different areas of your life. Once you have a clear vision about each area, then you can think about the things you can start doing now.

They Don’t Have to Be Big Decisions, Baby Steps are Great

If you feel scared and confused, it’s natural. You don’t need to take huge steps and decisions now and try to make everything happen right away. You can take baby steps.

When I wanted to write my novel Enchanted Silence, I knew I wanted to sign with a literary agent and land a publishing deal. I wanted to spend my time being a creative person and writer full-time.

At the time, there were fears in me about how realistic my desires were. But I decided to go with it anyway. I didn’t overwhelm myself though. I bought a book about writing fiction for dummies and enrolled in an online writing course. I didn’t push myself too much. I gave myself the time and space to explore my feelings, but yet started taking steps towards possibly making my dream a reality.

The Journey Will Lead the Way

This attitude can apply to any part of my life. I’ve started adopting the same strategy for other areas – romance and finances. I’m dipping my foot in the romance waters and trying to be braver and more vulnerable than I ever was. I am realizing I can have more than sufficient money at my hands, so I’m taking baby steps to actualize these desires.

Have you looked at someone and admired the life they were leading? Did you wish you were in their shoes instead? What’s the difference?

I could say this over and over, but here it is: The difference between where you are and that person who already has it is belief.

It is a Matter of Belief!

I’ll give you an example. Do you want to be a millionaire? Most people will believe that they will behave like a millionaire once they are actually one. Makes sense, right?

Actually, that’s a mistake many make, myself included. If you want to be a millionaire, then you must inherit the consciousness of one immediately. You must start behaving and thinking like one now.

You will energetically pull and manifest situations and events into your life that will propel you to become one.

Embrace You Are Worthy of Getting What You Want

You are worthy of actualizing your desires. It’s not some faraway, distant dream. Inherit thinking patterns and beliefs that support your vision and desires.

You know that person who has everything you want? Chances are they believe that they are worthy and it’s a huge reason for why they already have what they have.

Be the source of what you seek within. If you feel worthy of yourself regardless of what your external world is showing, your external world will eventually match the energetic vibration of your thoughts.

Believe you are worthy of getting everything you want. It’s simply a matter of belief.
