Do you feel fear? Here is why that is a good thing!
Fear comes in many forms, most of them hidden under other feelings. It manifests itself in actions that, at first glance, have nothing to do with it. Is hard to see the fear and is hard to face it once you see it. But understanding where it hides and why it hides there helps me figure out what to do next and how to help myself overcome it.

What is the Law of Attraction...?
Even if you do not have someone to talk to about your current experiences there is a common thread between us all. When we are faced with a change in our lives, a move, losing a job, losing friends and loved ones, or the change in a relationship dynamic we can unearth emotions that have long been untouched. The other side of it is that some people even you reading right now may not feel that you have anyone to talk to during this time that is safe and that you feel like you will not burden with your experiences that may not feel like sunshine and roses.

I Know I Am But What Are You
I have found myself once again in the cycle of stressing over things beyond my control. Feeling overwhelmed and panicked about where my life is about to go. If I have learned anything along this journey to find myself it would be that whatever is meant to be, will be! That is it... plain and simple! Although, I know the emotions and worries tied to the unknown don't feel all that simple. This is where I have to keep training the gray matter between my ears to stop playing all the possible worst-case scenarios over and over. This does nothing but send my anxiety into overdrive. Not a state of being that aligns with forward motion. These thoughts only keep me idle and unfocused. Which in return promotes talks with myself that are unfavorable and unkind. If I am going to stay on track with my positive self-reflection and maintain the progress I have already made... I have to practice making a plan of action and not worry about what is outside of my control. As much as I have despised the phrase "It is what it is", it is a spot-on statement. The words couldn't be wiser.

Where did this rule come from and how does it work? I want to say right away that I took these levels from the theory of psychology, and then edited them based on practice.
