Life can be chaotic. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m guessing you know what I mean.
Some days go smoothly, while others may feel like you are muscling your way through each minute until bedtime.
Bumps in the road often lead to unpleasant thoughts. I’m not good enough. I’m not worthy. He or she is better than me. I’m unlovable. I can’t take it anymore. When will I get my break. What If I don’t succeed? These thoughts can make the bumps feel unbearable.
You are not alone.
Sometimes you have the ability to change your circumstances, but at other times, you cannot get your way. I invite you to surrender.
Surrender to the fact that people are who they are. Surrender to the fact that things can be scary. Surrender to the fact that your actions have consequences. Surrender to the fact that perfection is an illusion. Surrender to the fact that there are many things in life we cannot predict or control.
When we let go of trying to control the uncontrollables in life, calm is what we feel. When we learn to let go of trying to fix, change, and force life to go our way, a sense of peace is inevitable.
Life doesn’t have to be so serious. We’re here for a very brief stay, so why not make the most of it?
Practice loving more, forgiving more, and feeling grateful. Focus your attention on the good, allow yourself to feel proud, and question your negative thoughts. Stop blaming, and start taking accountability. Search regularly for evidence that you are enough, and the people you love are doing the best they can. Know that you get to decide how you feel in this lifetime, and try trusting the universe to have your back.
If you want to find your calm amongst the chaos, you must stop looking outside of yourself, and start being the change you wish to see. Then, and only then, life seems to fall into place with ease.
All that you need is within you right now. You got this!
That’s it; that’s all I got for ya!
Happy day!
