I woke up this morning thinking about all the things I did wrong yesterday.
I started overthinking about all my bad choices and each poor decision.
But then, I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and realized that I was only making myself miserable by dwelling on all the bad stuff that’s already happened.
Truth is, I’ve been doing that for far too long and I’m not any better for it…
Analyzing everything I could have done differently, mulling over all my decisions, both good and bad and generally, holding onto the past much harder and longer than I should.
So, as I look in the mirror, I see a person who isn’t defined by choices made, failures endured and love gone wrong- both friends and partners..
And I’m tired of living that way.
I need more.
I deserve more- much more.
I want out of the worries, past and fretting about all the things I can’t change.
Today and every day after, I have a chance to start fresh, begin anew and strive to be better than I was yesterday.
I don’t care about being better than anyone else, life isn’t a competition..
It’s a journey- my journey- and I’m determined to make my life better each day than it was yesterday.
I know it’s an uphill battle some days and there will still be those times when all it does is rain and nothing goes right..
But I realize that I have the power to not let the bad stuff keep me from enjoying the beautiful parts of today.
I’m choosing now to start each day with a promise:
To shake off the past as much as I can, embrace today with as much zeal, passion and optimism as I can muster.
Today, I choose who to be and how to evolve just a little more…
I’ve spent too many sleepless nights tossing and turning consumed by the worries that weighed me down.
No more.
It won’t be easy, fast or painless, but I know that I’m meant for more and can become whatever I decide to be..
And I’m choosing happiness.
Today, tomorrow and the rest of my days are mine to do with as I want.
I got this.
