Years back, I was so stuck because I was not where I wanted to be, deep down. My plans for life was not going the way I envisioned it, although I knew why. But it wasn't until I got the mutual lesson of my life that things started to change. And when I decided to face these painful truths about my life, it was not easy. Here is what I learned after the mutual lesson and how it transformed me.
I used to blame life or the world for why I was not financially stable. I just tell myself I'm not just lucky but the truth is the reason I was not financially face to take financial risk years back. I was only willing to play safe. I've had so many investments, I was just scared of failing. And immediately I admitted that I was willing to invest, take risk and not be afraid to lose. And this has helped me so much.
Breaking Free from Low Energy and Old Habits
I was tired all the time, procrastinating years back. But it still hit me hard. I was low energy because I didn't change the kind of life I was living. I was keeping up to those old habits that keep dragging me back and not making me productive. Those junk food, no exercise, late nights, doing nothing but just watching movies and playing games. So I started simple, working on my life daily, eating better and prioritizing my sleep. And this gave me a very important feeling in years.
Healing Loneliness Through Connection
Holiness was another part of me again that really hold me back. Then, I realized that loneliness was because I didn't invest in a meaningful relationship that will last for long. I didn't give myself chance enough to go around people or to be around people who will lift. And in order to correct that, I started reaching out to people, reconnecting with old friends, joining groups, accepting invitations, and spending time with my loved ones in my circles. So at some certain point, my confidence began to hit.
Building Confidence Through Self-Care
Also meanwhile, when I didn't care myself physically or mentally, and I wasn't looking I wasn't unattractive because of looks, but I didn't put self-care into place. I didn't have any goals, which in the same time, led to my increasing insecurity. So I began treating myself better, eating and dressing better, and I stuck to the promise. Slowly I started feeling like someone living the life that he's proud of.
Transforming Confusion and Anger into Growth
So confusion and anger was also in me. I didn't invest so much in my mind, learning or reflecting in my life. I was angry because the reality was giving me feedback of what are the things that I didn't do on myself. So instead of blaming all that, I started to listen to myself more, get a book, mentors, and so forth, learning from my mistakes. And that was how I was able to make up something meaningful for my life.
The Power of Facing the Truth
And after facing all these truths, it wasn't just fun, it was the whole lesson that I needed to correct and work on. Each and every moment was a step to be better. So if you're feeling stuck, just try it, look into an eye mirror. It's time to own these choices and you're willing to start small, maybe 10s from now. You might thank yourself for the decision you made.
