How many times have you heard the saying "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade"? I used to think this was a nice healthy perspective until I started doing a lot of self-work.
Every time I hear someone say that, I wonder why just lemonade? There are so many things a person can do with lemons, yet most people go straight to, "I guess I will make some lemonade". Don't get me wrong, I love me a glass of ice cold, well, anything on a hot summers day. I just think there is a way to turn the power up on this statement. How about, "When life hands you lemons, do anything and everything you desire to do with them". I'm thinking science projects, recipes, cleaning spray, lotion, oils, skin rub, etc. The list could probably go on for days! It's important to pay attention to the words that you say, the thoughts that you have, and most importantly the energy you put into them. If someone else comes up to you and mentions some old saying that sounds limited in any way, speak up with a new way to say it. A new way to think about it. Life really is what we make it. So whether you are handed lemons, a stack of cards, or pencil and paper... don't be afraid to show up with your creativity. People will try to tell you that you can't. You will most likely hear people say it's never been done that way, or that you don't have what it takes. PUSH FORWARD! Your actions will always speak louder than your words and just by leaning into the fear and doing the thing anyway, you are telling the world WATCH ME. Invest time on becoming the person you need to be, the person you have always wanted to be, and the person you were meant to be. I've never heard anyone say they regretted living an authentic fulfilling life and you won't either.

It seems as if this blog post is perhaps an important one for the first one. Many people seem to go through the day to day motions, just checking off boxes and waiting for the day to be over. There isn't excitement in going through the motions because these people haven't found anything in life to be excited about.
Some may even wonder how that applies to them because as they look around they are surrounded by people who love them. But here's the deal. Even if you have loved ones all around you, you can still feel lonely. There are a lot of reasons behind the cause of this feeling, but what I seem to run into time and time again is that people feel lonely inside their own skin. It can feel suffocating, or like you are a prisoner in your own mind and body. How often have you dreamed of becoming more, being more, and doing more? If you haven't allowed yourself to dream in this capacity, have you ever wondered the reason behind that? We are here to tell you that you can have all the things you want in life and more! So if you feel like giving up, throwing in the towel, reach out and find support. I'm not talking about giving up on being alive, although if that is the case, please please do seek help. I am talking about giving up on the hope that things can or ever will be better. Don't feel like you have that support in your life? Follow us on Facebook to keep yourself motivated. Reach out to us, Just keep putting one foot in front of the other and don't give up! |
