If You Want To Change Your Life, Change The Way You Think

They say that you must change your identity in order to change your thoughts, beliefs, and actions. Because you can do and say and simply be anything you want. Because you can change yourself whenever you want in whichever ways you want. Because you have the power to control your mind and the way in which you perceive the world, and in turn, the way the world responds to you.

Maybe this responsibility is scary, terrifying even. But it’s also beautiful, exciting, and ultimately life-changing. You are you because you say you are. 

Make your days mean something to you. Infuse them with whatever makes your heart race and fills you with awe and wonder. Be kind to yourself and the world. Be bold and daring, be soft and peaceful, be unconditionally and unapologetically you. When you fall, get back up. Make lemons into lemonade. Be thankful for your half-full glass. Encourage yourself and the people you love. Try something new, something outside of your comfort zone, something that challenges you. Do something that deepens your connection with the universe and everything in it. Make it a mission to show up every day in your most authentic form. Only you know what that means for you.

 And say this: “I care about becoming who I was meant to be. Becoming the best version of myself that I can be because I owe it to myself to be extraordinary and settle for nothing less. To relish in the good times and grow from the bad. To move mountains and impact everyone that I come into contact with. To leave my mark on society for the better.”

Say it because you believe it. Because there’s no question that it’s true and pure. Because you love yourself too much to believe absolutely anything else.
