One of the most disheartening things for me to watch is people waking up every day to do something that is draining every ounce of their happiness. Many of us have become so accustomed to surviving that we forget how to live. What will it take for you to make a move? What will it take for you to remove yourself from that which you know isn't right for you? Will you wait until life pushes you over the edge where you'll either have to release the parachute or die?
We'll never experience many of the things we hope for in life unless we change our mindset. Unless we change our focus from backward to forward. Unless we change the environment that we are in. Unless we get serious about making the boldest move of our life. We'll continuously remain in unhealthy situations. Nothing will change unless we do. Faith without works is dead!
How about you make that move now. It's time to claim your greatness. It's time to pull away from everyone and everything that has been stifling your true potential. It's time to dare the limits of your comfort zone, above and beyond.
This is your call. You can no longer wait for someone else to speak on your behalf. You can no longer wait for someone else to rev their engine, so you can join the bandwagon. You can no longer wait to be spoon-fed. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that you feel this way. Trust is like glass once it's broken it's never the same again. Everything takes time to be restored. I've lost trust in so many things, but despite all that happened I've learned this. Nothing in life stays constant, no matter the state that we are in. Even in the darkest moments, we can still look for the light. The morning will come, it has no other choice. Healing & love 😊🤗
