Remove Limiting Beliefs

When you care too much about what people think of you it becomes impossible to enjoy life. How can you when you are worried about who's standards you aren't meeting? I had that issue for about 24 out of 25 years of my lifespan. Hopefully, it is a habit that has been permanently broken. While trying to satisfy everyone else I noticed I was not happy and my energy was not reciprocated which absolutely made things worst. I would often cry myself to sleep wondering when it would get better. It took what seemed to be ages, but it came. Now that those times have come and gone,  I would like to remain worry free.

Something that is clearly easier said than done because if you allow people to get a taste of your energy they will in more ways than one try to devour it. You, unfortunately, have to keep your guard up. Even in a spiritual sense. It would be so ideal to be able to trust everyone because of choosing to see the good in everyone, but sadly that is just not the case. Everything has gone in a downwards spiral and it is beyond strenuous to keep yourself centered and grounded when you have to utilize so much of what the world has become in order to survive. You have to temporarily shut your dreams off to focus on making sure your children eat. You spend the majority of your day working towards achieving yet another goal for whoever's dream you are working on because it surely is not yours. 

What I have noticed, is that in a sick way people have become crabs in a barrel that eat crabs. I know "crabs in a barrel" is something we have all heard before, but this is something else. Everyone is out to prove who has the bigger appetite. It has become beyond difficult to tell who is who. Who has good intentions for you, and who just wants to strip you of the light and love you have to offer. That is until you do! There is no dream too big, no goal you can not accomplish. In this last year alone I have done things I thought would take me years to do. Often I surprise myself when I surpass my own boundaries and limitations, making me realize they aren't even in place, to begin with. When you are accustomed to living a certain lifestyle you begin to expect certain things. Life begins when you re-learn to not have any.

Allow yourself to make mistakes and plenty of them without beating yourself up about them. Life throws many different things at you, sometimes all at once but it always prepares you for whatever may come further down the line. There is not a single obstacle that I have overcome that has not gotten me ready for things that have occurred after the fact. So when I see people around me dealing with this very thing I just tell them to be who they are without any sugar on the coating. Expression, creativity, art, love, life is just that. We do not need to make things that come naturally have unnecessary difficulties attached to them. Without even realizing it creating self-doubts and limiting beliefs is sucking all of the passion from whatever it is you are doing. So does allowing people who mean you no good to weigh you down with their overbearing energy. Respect yourself, believe in your dreams and allow yourself to grow. 

That business you were thinking about starting or that play you have scripted and drafted in your inbox to send off, push for it. No matter how tired, angry, sad, hurt, or flat out broke you may think or feel you are make yourself go beyond your boundaries. Once you step outside of that comfort zone, you will find yourself doing amazing things. Things of which help this world and the people in it. Oh yes, you can bring the life back to us and our people simply by being who you are without apologizing for it. We are all so different so you being who you are is not going to take away from who someone else is. You deserve everything you have dreamed about. Make your reality better than your dreams.
