If you do not like where you are, if you do not like what you are doing, it is never too late to reinvent yourself.

Start with these life-changing questions, according to Jenna Kutcher,

‘Can you identify an area of your life where you’re dropping balls most often? Without judgment, get really honest with where you’re struggling to keep up or what’s staying at the bottom of your to do list. Who may be waiting in the wings to help? Where can you let go? Who can you let in to share your load?’- Jenna Kutcher

‘What is the future you see for yourself? Does it scare you? What makes that vision scary? What needs to happen next to make it real? What’s one thing you can do to move you closer to your future?’- Jenna Kutcher

‘Have you built your life on a stack of supposed tos? Are there areas of your life where you’re staying stuck because it’s conventional or convenient? Where are you simply going with with the flow? What are some life changes you need to make?’- Jenna Kutcher

Do Not Deceive Yourself

‘Be honest with yourself about how far you are prepared to go in pursuit of personality change. It is better to be realistic than to harbor unrealistic expectations.”– Dr. Christian Jarrett

You can’t help yourself if you are not real to yourself. And no one can help you if you are not real to yourself.

You won’t grow if you are kidding yourself. Do not do that. It does not make things better. Instead, it makes things worse.

When you lie to yourself, you are not moving closer to yourself; you are moving away from yourself.

If you are not your true self, then how can you grow? You can’t. But you can change things. You can change the direction of your life. You do that by being honest with yourself.

Life is not fair, but do not lie to yourself. Do not deceive yourself. If you do, it means you are against your growth. It means you are not for yourself. And it means you do not love yourself. Why? Because if you love who you are, you will NEVER lie to yourself.

Follow your passion. Do what you can do. Do not take on more than you can handle. If you need help, then ask for help. That is how we grow.

Honesty brings growth. So if you want to grow, you must be honest with yourself.
