Many people live their lives at the mercy of circumstances. They are subjected to what happens to them, at the mercy of other people. They don’t live in the present because they are stuck in the prison of their past.
If you want to live a great life, don’t be guided by any of these things.
- Your Past
- Opinions and Judgments of Others
- Limiting Beliefs Projected onto Yourself
- Relationships
- Money
Your Past
Do not allow your past to control your present or your future. Whatever has happened, you must let it go.
Leave the pain of your past behind so it cannot ruin your future.
Leave the darkness of your past behind so it cannot block the light of your beautiful future.
Your past is gone. Whatever happened, whether unjust, cruel, or harsh, reliving the events will never do you any good. If someone wronged you, the only way you can win is by letting go and moving on. If you live in hate, they win. If you live in the story of being a victim, they win. If you want to win, you must focus on building your future and start immediately.
Let go of that weight on your back so you can be free. Do not allow past events, which are now gone, to spoil this moment. What is perfect is this moment right now, ready to be enjoyed and lived to the fullest. Your past does not equal your future.
Opinions and Judgments of Others
Do not let the opinions and judgments of others dictate the direction of your life. The need to fit in and feel wanted can lead you down paths you don’t want to travel. People-pleasing is a curse that must be avoided at all costs. Before you do anything, ask yourself: Am I doing this because I want to do it? …or because I fear the judgment of others if I don’t?
You were born unique for a reason, to stand out, to be appreciated and loved for who you are. Don’t dim your light to fit into the dull background of someone else’s life. Shine brightly as you are, and those who truly care will see that light and brilliance.
Limiting Beliefs Projected onto Yourself
Do not let your life be controlled by your own limiting beliefs. These beliefs may be conscious, but most likely they are unconscious. They could be unconscious limitations conditioned from a young age and throughout your life by listening to people around you who never pursued their own dreams.
There is nothing you cannot do, nothing you cannot have, and as this universe is my witness, there is no one you cannot become if you believe in yourself! If you believe everything is possible, guess what, everything is possible. When you change your belief from limited to unlimited… your potential is limitless.
Imagine what you could achieve if you lived your life as though everything is possible. As if miracles were a daily requirement. As the saying goes:
“If there is no enemy within, the enemy outside can do you no harm.”
If there is nothing inside you that is holding you back, there is nothing outside that can hold you back either. Your whole life will change the moment you decide to change your mindset. The moment you decide to see everything as a gift. When you decide to see every circumstance and challenge as a blessing rather than a curse. When you become aware that everything is as it should be, and fighting against what is, is insanity.
Relationships
Relationships. A sensitive topic. But if you always need someone else to be happy, to feel complete, you are always one moment away from a breakdown if that person leaves, or unhappiness if the relationship is not going well.
I am not suggesting avoiding relationships. There is no greater power on this earth than LOVE and connection. I am talking about those who cannot live if they are not in a relationship. Those who are always in a relationship, including all the wrong ones, just to avoid being alone.
What I am suggesting here is to develop enough mental strength so that you reach a point where you do not need others to make you happy. You are just as happy being alone as you are in a relationship.
Money
This is what controls the majority of people on earth. Can you guess what it is? …MONEY!
This does not mean you should not want abundance. It does not mean money is bad. You know as well as I do the great things you can do and the people you can help with money. What this means is that your decisions should not be governed by money.
If you choose something solely based on the money factor involved, you have just made the wrong decision. What you will find is that when you follow your heart and lead with your intention to serve others, to give your best to others – every single time, when you follow your intuition and truly give from your soul – then, the money will come, and it will come in far greater amounts than if you were simply chasing money for the sake of money.
So challenge yourself to live the life you want to live. Free from control by anything. Find your freedom. LIVE FULLY!
