Stop Rejoicing At What Brings You Nothing

Stop doing the things that are not making your life better. Stop feeding the wrong things in your life. Stop saying the opposite of what you really feel. Instead, start creating the life you want to live. You can do that by staying true to yourself.

Do not forget that everything you do is either blessing you or hurting you. If you want to go forward, stop doing things that are not helping you. 
If you have been feeding fears in your life, now is the right time to stop. If you have been saying the opposite of what you feel, now is the right time to stop.

In the words of Boris Pasternak, ''You health is bound to be affected if, day after day, you say the opposite of what you feel, if you grovel before what you dislike, and rejoice at what brings you nothing but misfortune.''

But why? Why are we not doing what we are supposed to be doing? Why are we postponing our lives? 
If you want to be free, real freedom, you must 
have the courage to say what you feel, 
have the courage to be yourself, 
have the courage to stay true to yourself. 

When you are true to yourself, others will be true to you. Do not forget that you are in charge of your life. 

Do not give your power away. And don't let what other people are doing distract you from where you are going. Be true to yourself, to your dreams. Do not lie to yourself. If you do, you are not helping yourself. Instead, you are doing the opposite. You are holding yourself back.

No One Can Make You Miserable

If you want to make peace with yourself, you must not surround yourself with people who are making your life miserable. Life is to short to move around with people who do not even appreciate you for who you are, not for what you have. 
When you appreciate people, they grow bigger. When someone you admire recognizes you, it makes you feel better about yourself. 
Do not forget that no one can make you feel miserable about yourself. Why is that? Simple. Because you are the owner of your own life. If you are not in charge of your life, then who? You tell me!

To enjoy the life that God has given you, you must stop beating yourself up. You must stop reliving your past. You must love who you are, regardless of what is in your bank account. Do not let worldly possessions posses your life. Live your life in a way that will attract people who can help you. 

Control your life. Because you are in charge of your train. You can drive yourself to wherever you want to go. But to arrive there, you must have the courage to start your engine. You must have the courage to take the first step. Because without the first step, you won't be able to take the second step. And if you can't continue to move, then you can't continue to grow.

And to grow, you must move. You must not be afraid of failure. You must welcome failure into your world. And when you do, you will never be afraid of failure in your life.
Make failure your friend. Do not let people scare you to death. Take your own actions. Because without actions, intentional actions, your dreams are just dreams. They will never happen. Because for something to happen, there must be actions. Will you take your own actions to change your life, to change your world?
