Who’s driving your life?
It’s not you.
Your life today, right now as you read this, is still being driven by your parents, extended family, teachers and others whom you were around in your early years. The things they told you, taught you, influenced you with, protected you with, their ‘These-are-the-rules-of-life’-ness.
The question is – did they have the kind of life YOU want to live? Did they have the freedom, relationships, success, wealth, <insert whatever your heart really desires> that YOU want?
Really?
If not, can you see that by believing and thinking the way these loved ones did, you’re just recreating history. Creating your life in a way that will create the same results.
“No” I hear you say “My parents didn’t go to University/travel/live abroad/whatever… I’m creating a different life”.
Not really.
Different levels maybe, but very similar in the grand scheme of possibilities and true potential.
So this leads to another question:
Why do you read this newsletter/these articles?
Are you merely interested in the topic of personal growth but are already truly fulfilled in every area of your life?
I suspect it’s more than that.
Is there something deep within you whispering ‘There’s more… you know… for you…’
That whisper is coming from the real YOU – not from all the beliefs about ‘how life, success, money’ works. And that’s where you have to start.
There IS more for you.
And it isn’t as difficult to attain as those old stories would have you believe.
But it all starts with true honesty with self:
Is this as good as it gets to be for you? Is this all you ‘deserve’? To settle, to self-criticise, to look in envy at those who’ve created a life of true fulfilment, happiness, wealth and time-freedom, doing work they truly love (as opposed to convincing self that you enjoy your everyday), spending their time with people they adore – professionally and personally.
Or do YOU want that life too?
Because if you do, you have to start analysing your inner speaking. And start to weed out those old stories that are keeping you stuck.
Like ‘But it’s difficult… It’s not the right time… My circumstances are different…. When the kids are older…. When I have more money…. When/if… blah blah blah’
I KNOW – I used to be EXACTLY there.
But I knew my life was worth more.
Is yours?
