Everybody deserves a new beginning

Life can change completely after a limited experience. We see people who change overnight when they lose everything or when they suffer too much. All our dreams can crumble in an instant, our expectations, desires, priorities can become everything else. Most of the time, negative events force us to look at things from a completely different perspective, because the old way of thinking is no longer enough.

We mature and pre-mature overnight by force. Why is it necessary to have a limited experience to give a new meaning to our life? Why do we have to relate to the outside, when our inner experiences tell us that it is no longer possible?

Why do we need new and new evidence to understand that the direction we have chosen does not suit us? If you feel that your life needs a change if you wait anxiously knowing that something good must happen if you melt with impatience waiting for something that will never come, why are you waiting?

Everything can change overnight and you don't need the outside reality to change. What is more real: what you feel, what you are experiencing, or what is "really" happening outside? Which reality is more "real": the inner or the outer? Out of inertia, we prefer to change the outside by putting in the background what is happening inside.

We adopt a new look, we starve, we change our wardrobe, we make up a fragile self-image with make-up. Does it help us? Too little … If we want a change, we have to prove it worthwhile. We have to fight for her.

We have to learn to put an end (no, we don't put a comma) and start over. The first step is to arm ourselves with a pencil and a corner of the paper on which we write down what we want to become and then proceed. From this moment the change begins, from this moment you have become what you want.

For this reason, you are forbidden to write, "I want to be more confident." Write as if you were already: "I am confident, strong, victorious, etc." Abuse positive thinking. Don't use negative statements like, "I'm not emotionally dependent on anyone." Instead, use "I'm emotionally independent." The difference in shade is huge. Then you have to implement.

You have to act like you're that person. How does a self-respecting person react when her husband speaks ill of her? How does a strong person react when he has a difficult negotiation to complete? At first, you will wear a mask, a mask that finally suits you, because it is in line with your real expectations and desires.

Maybe you will feel artificial, maybe you will want to give up, but it is enough to test the power of your thoughts once and you will be convinced.

If you've spent your whole life victimizing yourself, then don't expect good things to happen to you. Your life is dependent on your expectations of it. If you feel that you do not deserve to be loved, the Universe will be stubborn to strengthen your expectations and beliefs and will bring in only inappropriate partners.

This is not an unfavorable fate, this is not a bad day. Only you can decide on your present.

The future and the past depend on what you do now. Every action of yours, every thought influences the past and the future. Do you think you can't change what happened in the past?

You are very wrong. Your perception of events determines how you are influenced by the past. And you change the future with every decision you make, with every thought you let go of.

The present, the moment belong to us and they are powerful weapons, which we forget because we either turn our backs on them or look at them blinded by the future.

This moment will soon be over. It's already become … how did you use it? You can be whatever you want. There is a special strength in you. Only those who want to get better can succeed?

Do you accept the challenge?
