The Liberating Power of Self-Denial

"I'll never forget the day I realized the power of saying no to myself. I was on a spiritual retreat, surrounded by nature's beauty, yet wrestling with my own desires and distractions. One of the monks shared a profound insight that changed my perspective forever: 'The chains that bind us are not the nos we say to others, but the yeses we say to ourselves.'

It hit me like a ton of bricks. I realized that my inability to say no to myself was holding me back from achieving my dreams. I was saying yes to every whim, every desire, every distraction. And in doing so, I was sacrificing my focus, my productivity, and my sense of purpose.

That moment, I made a vow to myself to start saying no to the things that didn't align with my values and goals. It wasn't easy. It took discipline, self-awareness, and courage. But with each passing day, I felt a sense of liberation wash over me.

I started saying no to social media notifications that stole my attention. No to late-night TV shows that kept me from sleeping. No to sugary snacks that sabotaged my health. And no to commitments that didn't serve my greater good.

As I practiced saying no to myself, I noticed a profound shift. I became more focused, more productive, and more at peace. I started pursuing my passions with clarity and purpose. And I discovered that the freedom to say no to myself was the key to unlocking my true potential.

Today, I want to share this secret with you. Saying no to yourself is not about restriction; it's about liberation. It's not about deprivation; it's about empowerment. When you learn to say no to the things that don't serve you, you'll unlock a level of freedom, creativity, and fulfillment you never thought possible.

So, I challenge you: start saying no to yourself. Say no to the noise that's holding you back. Say no to the distractions that derail your focus. Say no to the desires that don't align with your values.

As you embark on this journey, remember that every no you say to yourself is a yes to your highest self. Every time you deny yourself something that doesn't serve you, you're one step closer to becoming the best version of yourself.

Say no to yourself, and watch your life transform in ways you never thought possible.

Hi, how is your business doing?

Hi... Good morning

I just want to let you know that everything will be fine. Keep pushing forward, but know your limits to avoid burnout.

Take a look around and see if there's someone you can hire or tasks you can delegate to reduce stress. Sometimes, we try to do too much ourselves when we could ask for help. "The body keeps the score" – you're closer to relief than you think.
Don't forget to make friends before you need them.

When you're with the wrong people, they'll frustrate, stress, hurt, manipulate,use and break you, and when you're affected mentally, they'll say you have spiritual problems. As a mental health therapist, I've seen this dynamic play out. Often, we inflict harm on ourselves, perpetuating cycles of pain.

Hey....
Good morning, the struggle is real...
If only you know what the person close to you is passing through.
Guide your mental health, be intentional about it.
Be thankful if you are stable, a lot is happening, once it hits you, it will take God and real people to stand by you and to see those real people is difficult.

When you help others to get to the top, don't remain there waiting for them to come and take you to where they are, because it might not be possible. Life is deep, and they can be in a tight corner.

Do something that will keep you in a position where it will be possible for them to lift you to where they are. If you are in a position to help someone, don't be afraid of helping them, even if they are more qualified or may likely take your position.

Upgrade always to beat the fear, because the same thing that made you not help your friend, sibling, or relation.The same thing you're scared of, That same thing will definitely come; this time around, it may be from a stranger, and you will lose if you have not upgraded and no one will be able to help you.
