    When was the last time you intentionally spoke to yourself?⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Like out loud in the mirror. ⁣🗣⁣
    ⁣⁣Our mind sometimes can forget… What of our self talk is ourselves, and what of our self talk is someone else.⁣⁣

    ⁣Is our stress🤬⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Is our pain😰⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Is our past🥴⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣We are born ONLY feeling love for ourselves, so anything else you hear in your mind is NOT your authentic self!⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Practicing getting away from negative self talk can look like taking these steps⤵️⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣1st: Identify some of the main statements you make to yourself in a day/week. Your job is that of an observer. 🕵🏼‍♀️ ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣What are the most common things you say to yourself?⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣2nd: Write them down and when you notice them the most; situations, people, feelings/emotions that trigger these negative thoughts. ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣3rd: What about this is familiar?
    How long have you been saying it to yourself?
    Who’s voice is it actually? ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣(Ex.-my parents/siblings/teacher/coach/ex/boss said this to me) ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣4th: Intentionally replace negative self-talk with neutral or positive affirmations, and repeat DAILY. ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣5th: Experience a more fulfilling, joyful, meaningful, and balanced life. 😎 ⁣⁣

    You’ve always been the whole package..

    You’ve always been the whole package. 📦 ⁣
    ⁣
    ⁣Anytime you’ve felt otherwise is because you were delivered to the wrong address, or still in transit. 🚐⁣
    ⁣Think about that. ⁣
    ⁣If I ordered a new tv and it was delivered to my neighbor’s house by mistake…⁣
    ⁣Let’s say they already own a much bigger tv, mine wouldn’t be “big enough” “flat enough” “good enough” etc. ⁣
    ⁣When I get it, it doesn’t decrease in value, it’s still the tv I ordered, and the best fit for me.⁣
    ⁣
    ⁣If you don’t like your job/career, change addresses.📬⁣
    ⁣Relationship makes you feel insecure or as though you’re lacking something? You might be in transit, and haven’t arrived at the correct address. 🛣 ⁣
    ⁣Allow yourself to let go, make changes, and move on from anything that keeps you from feeling whole.⁣
    ⁣
    ⁣We as newborns only know love for ourselves. Anything that isn’t love, was conditioned or internalized. ⁣
    ⁣
    ⁣You’ve always been the whole package, and when you’re at the right address in all facets of your life, you’ll know. ⁣
    ⁣Don’t settle for any part of your life that doesn’t feel whole.⁣
    ⁣Trust your process. 💛💛💛⁣

    What are you failing towards today?👀⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣You know winners fail, too…right? 🏆 ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣In fact they always fail. They fail towards their WHY.⁣⁣

    ⁣⁣With each fail is a win, because if you fail it means you’re TRYING, and you’re not quitting.⁣ 👏🏼⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Your competition told ya to fear messing up.😖⁣😒⁣
    ⁣Someone projected their fears on to you.🙄⁣
    ⁣⁣Your ego told ya to stay in your comfort zone.🙅🏼‍♀️⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Instead of viewing failure as the setback, imagine failure as the price 💵 of admission to every win.⁣

    ⁣Investing in your dreams requires consistent failures. ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Take your focus from the “fail” epic or not, and drive your attention back to your WHY. ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣What were you heading towards during your fail? ➡️➡️The intended place.⁣😌⁣
    ⁣The WHY.⁣

    ⁣⁣This helps to stop discouragement in its tracks, and learn to trust that a fail is synonymous with forward movement.📈⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Forward movement is consistency towards your goal/dream/passion resulting in more of SELF.⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Yeah, people will get hurt along the way, including yourself.⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Hurt now by not becoming more of your authentic self, OR be challenged along the way to continue becoming YOU. ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣Damn, it feels good to be yourself. 😏⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣And if it doesn’t right now, accept where you’re at, meet yourself there, and direct your attention back to your WHY.⁣
    ⁣⁣The big wins are always internal. ⁣🙌🏼⁣
    ⁣⁣External is short-term, internal is forever.⁣♾⁣
    ⁣⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣The more you don’t quit, the more you meet yourself. ⁣🙋🏼‍♀️⁣
    ⁣⁣And you are enough just as you are. ⁣⁣
    ⁣⁣You are worth it and you deserve love and fulfillment.⁣⁣

    ⁣⁣What are you failing towards today?🏆🏆🏆⁣⁣

    ⁣⁣Comment a 🏆 if you’re failing today!

    Lessons to Share🔑🙌🏼🧠
    8 months ago I started seeing clients in nursing homes/residential facilities to help pay down debt I racked up while I was sick.
    I recently had my last day, and have been in a space of reflection.

    Regret seems to be one of the most painful emotions to experience. 💔
    To sit with individuals and listen to what it feels like to experience it being too late for them. To be unable to ever make their dreams happen, to feel so many what if’s, due to physical health, or mental decline, and the consequences of their choices and actions.

    I’ve listened to humans talk about the “I wish I would have…” ⬇️⬇️⬇️
    taken the risk, overcome my fears, stood up for myself, not let others discourage me, not spent so much time criticizing myself, taken time off/away from work and spent more time with loved ones.

    I’ve also held space for humans that are ready to die. Who are content with their life and have made peace with their choices that led to this point.🤍

    Here’s what I gathered overall:

    1️⃣ Life is much shorter than we can ever imagine. Nothing is permanent. Make time for you and your loved ones.

    2️⃣ Plan for retirement. Yesterday ‼️ Invest in your future.

    3️⃣ If you have to pick between your own approval or the approval of your parents/family/friends/society, pick the first. Pick YOU. Every Single Time. Remain in integrity with yourself.

    4️⃣ Forgive yourself, and others quicker. Love > criticism.

    5️⃣ Don’t rely on others to do for you what you aren’t already doing for yourself.

    6️⃣ The time will continue to pass, block out those who try to talk you out of your dreams. You are the one who has to live with your choices and the consequences.

    7️⃣ You’ll know it’s for you when it brings you peace. Trust yourself more. Some people are committed to misunderstanding you.

    8️⃣ Do it now for the future you. Travel. Accept you don’t know everything.

    9️⃣ Take risks. All of them. The more mistakes, and the messier, the better the stories later. The more you become yourself.
    .
    🔟 Enjoy the little things. It’s the little things you will miss first, not the big things. It’s the simple tasks and moments you will miss most.

    Acceptance

    ACCEPTANCE🙏

    If beating yourself up worked, it would have worked by now.
    Accept yourself fully. The good and the bad, and I can guarantee you will experience a ☮️ you don’t even know is possible for you. ✨
    Strive for progress not perfection. .

    We cannot change anything until we first acknowledge and accept it. You CAN be loved just as you are in this moment. It all starts with you. We accept the love we think we deserve. Turn that self-love notch up, and others will follow your lead. 💕

    If you’re reading this and begin to think about all the things you don’t like, I want you to say them again but remove the negativity and just observe yourself. 🧐

    EXAMPLE:
    “I have an ugly smile.”

    Objective curiosity: “I have a smile.”

    The follow-up of this is to then add a positive descriptor.✅

    “I have an amazing smile.” .

    Now, you may not believe it initially, but with time you will transform the story you’re telling yourself, by consistently utilizing positive affirmations. .

    What’s one compliment/objective affirmation you can give yourself today, to start this week off right?! 🥰

    Pay Attention

    Hold up! 

    What do you do for people, let’s say your best friend, when something happens to them, they are having an off day, or a bad day? How do you cheer them up? .

    Now, ask yourself the same question…🧐

    What do people do for YOU that makes you feel better during those times? What do you look forward to everyday? Now do that for yourself. Dedicate one hour of your day to you. That’s less than 5% of your day! You DESERVE it. If you don’t wanna spend time with yourself, how can you expect others to want to?

    You have to start with you, and be your own best friend. Pick yourself up. At the end of the day it’s just you. Depending on others primarily to do this will only result in depletion. .

    Pay attention to if YOU are someone who drains you, not just other people. Pay attention to who fills your cup up. Get more of those people and be that for yourself. 💕
