The Challenging Parts of Reinventing Yourself
Hi Beautiful,
In the last few years, I have been working on becoming the best version. It's had its challenges but I soon realised that in order to change and indeed reinvented myself I would need to change the following:
Can you really change?
Self-doubt was big to get over.
I had all the amazing plans in my head and even written down but I just thought half were impossible. I had been stuck one way for so long that even when I attempted to try a new thing or start to change, it was so foreign to me that I talked myself out of it. Taking things one step at a time and creating a plan to have new habits helped in starting to change.
Slowly believing in myself.
Falling back into bad habits
I used to take time and opportunity for granted every single day.
There was procrastination and a lack of planning for my day. I fell into habits because I had not changed my mindset and I was taking my time in my comfort. When I looked back 6 months and realise I had not actually made moves in my life to change, that's when I changed.
I knew falling into bad habits prevented me from living in abundance and changing the course of my life.
Comparing yourself
Understanding that everyone started at nothing.
People are at different levels of their journey makes a difference in your thought process. There is healthy comparison; being able to admire someone and appreciate them and their teachable success. Getting lost in the obsessive comparing and not giving yourself grace will only keep you stuck, you change yourself and jealousy is not cute. Comparing yourself to your past doesn't help.
Keep your eyes on the future and take one day at a time to reinvent yourself.
It takes more than merely stating the obvious challenges you experience. Learning to go deeper, search within and place your worries on God can really help change how you think about yourself.
Be Beautiful and Choose Happiness x
