Good reminder that our brain can sometimes lead us to inaccurate conclusions.

Living BIG: 



Boundaries

Integrity

Generosity 


This special two-parter with Ashley will be our last “Unlocking Us” podcast with Spotify. We’re not sure what’s next, but we are 100% grateful for sharing this long walk with you.

Ashley and I take on the topics of generosity, resentment, boundaries, and grief. In this episode, I read a long passage to you from “Rising Strong.” It’s all about how our Living BIG strategy kicked off (spoiler alert: I am very, very, very pissed-off in this story).

You can listen to the podcast and our entire library of episodes on Spotify. You can also go to stories and swipe up to join our mailing list. We’ll keep you posted on what’s next!

It took me a long time to be okay with certain situations happening in my life. Even then it still hurts remembering the way certain things ended, because it left such bruising. So when I made a decision to not allow things to continue, to cut ties, it is because I have grown too much to allow someone to cut my roots at the core. I have learned too much to allow the past to repeat itself while leaving me in pieces all over again.

History is behind us for a reason, so we shouldn't allow it to rule our future as if we can change what's already happened. Because we can't. But we are in control of who we let into our lives going forward, so we are able to be cautious about who we let into our hearts.

If you ever get the chance, go alone. Walk alone, travel alone, live alone, eat alone and dance alone. Even just for awhile. If you ever get that chance learn who you are when the world isn't demanding you to be one way or another. Most people only know how to stand on their own if someone else will stand beside them.

Don't let that be your story. When you get the chance, know that the opportunity to walk alone, even for a bit, is a rare gift, one that will hand you insight that can change the course of your life.

THE CRAVE FOR INNER PEACE

I’m slowly learning that I don’t have to react to everything that bothers me. I’m slowly learning that the energy it takes to react to every bad thing that happens to you drains you and stops you from seeing the other good things in life.
I’m learning that I’m not going to be everyone’s cup of tea and I won’t be able to get everyone to treat me the way I want to be treated and that’s okay.

I’m slowly learning that trying so hard to ‘win’ anyone is just a waste of time and energy and it fills you with nothing but emptiness. I’m slowly learning that not reacting doesn’t mean I’m okay with things, it just means I’m choosing to rise above it.

I’m choosing to take the lesson it has served and learn from it.

I’m choosing to be the bigger person. I’m choosing my peace of mind because that’s what I truly need. I don’t need more drama. I don’t need people making me feel like I’m not good enough.

I don’t need fights and arguments and fake connections. I’m slowly learning that sometimes not saying anything at all says everything. I’m slowly learning that reacting to things that upset you gives someone else power over your emotions.

You can’t control what others do, but you can control how you respond, how you handle it, how you perceive it and how much of it you want to take personally. I’m slowly learning that most of the time, these situations say nothing about you and a lot about the other person.

I’m slowly learning that maybe all these disappointments are just there to teach us how to love ourselves because that will be the armour and the shield we need against the people who try to bring us down. They will save us when people try to shake our confidence or when they try to make us feel like we’re worthless.

I’m also learning that even if I react, it won’t change anything, it won’t make people suddenly love and respect me, it won’t magically change their minds. Sometimes it’s better to just let things be, let people go, don’t fight for closure, don’t ask for explanations, don’t chase answers and don’t expect people to understand where you’re coming from.

I’m slowly learning that life is better lived when you don’t center it on what’s happening around you and center it on what’s happening inside you instead. Work on yourself and your inner peace and you’ll come to realize that not reacting to every little thing that bothers you is the first ingredient to living a happy and healthy life.

I thought I'd share this thought for the day.
