New Beginnings

Do you know of anyone that is afraid of change. Are you afraid of change? Both of those are important questions to think about. In life, I have learned that the only thing constant is change. Changes can take place instantly or over an extended period of time. Either way, at some point, we all experience change. For me, the best way to describe change is “new beginnings”. New beginning may be a little intimidating, but it is only because it is “new”. Once you learn how to embrace change and accept new beginning, life will become a lot less stressful.

For example, some of the friends you had in elementary school may not be your friends at this point in your life. You change and people change. We have to remember not to hold grudges when people we were once close to walk out of our lives. Some people are supposed to be in your life for a season and some for a lifetime. This is something that everyone, everywhere has to deal with.

The best advice that I can give you concerning new beginnings, is that when you meet new people it creates new opportunities. I know that Drake says, No New Friends”, but in order to move forward in life you will encounter new people and experiences. Embrace the opportunities for change in order to grow and learn along your journey!

Mind Over Matter

In life, we all face situations where our mindset can affect us negatively or positively! It is ultimately up to us which one we allow. There is one important thing we must do if we want to reach our full potential!

We have to change our “stinking thinking”! When life happens, we sometimes find ourselves in a state of what I call a “brain attack”. During this time, we only have negative thoughts and never try to find the positive in the circumstance or find a way to get through it. Instead, we mope around and let life happen instead of making things happen. We must get into a habit of thinking positive thoughts and not letting people or situations keep us down. When things happen, shake it off and get back on focus!

If people will tap into the power they possess within themselves, they will realize it is just a case of mind over matter. If you have a positive mindset, you can overcome any matter at hand! Always remember, “Your mindset determines your outcome.”

A Fighting Chance

We all deserve to win in life, but some of us will give up before that happens! While you are going through, be careful not to give up before you break through! I’m not saying that it is easy to disregard any challenges we face and stay focused. At some point, we all lose focus, but you must NOT stay off focus.

One thing that helps me to reach my goals is posting affirmations around the house. The more you write and recite your goals, the closer you will become to reaching them! never give up just because life throws you a curveball. Go back up to the plate and hit a homerun. NO one who was ever successful went through life without failing at something! Always remember that you deserve a fighting chance! I believe in you and I hope you believe in yourself!
