How You Create Your Own Reality

In the words of Brianna Wiest, ‘What you associate becomes fused together for you. What you consistently exposed yourself to becomes so familiar, it is eventually preferred, defaulted to. What you say most often begins to form elements of your inner narrative, the way in which you dictate who you are and how you interact with the world.’

Your reality happens every day. When you wake up in the morning, your reality starts. When you think, your are creating your own reality. When you act, you are creating what you want to see in your life. When you don’t do what you are supposed to do, you are making your own bed.

Remember that your reality is how you live your life every day. So if you do not like what you are reaping, then you must change what you are planting. If you don’t like what you are getting, then change what you are doing.

As always, You are more, not less!

Your Fulfillment Matters

No relationship is perfect. But ‘relationships become problematic when one person’s fulfillment is routinely sacrificed in service of the other’s.’

If you want to fulfill your potential, you need a healthy relationship. You need a healthy human being in your life. You need people who love you for who you are, not for what you can do for them.

Do not surround yourself with people who are in your life to get. It is not good for you. Why is that? Because if you are unable to meet their needs, they will leave you for another person. The more you do, the more they want from you. The more you do for them, the less you do for yourself.

It is okay to help other people. But do not forget yourself.

As always, you are more, not less!
