when you’re aware that doing that one thing makes you forget who you’ve fought so hard to become + what you’ve learned so far, + inspires you to revert back to the person you left behind — remember:
who you are now is different than who you once were.
this different person thinks before they respond,
they check in with their emotions + feelings,
they are assertive + sure of themselves,
they give grace + forgive for their own sake,
+
they remember they are capable, + full of light + love.
there’s no need to avoid situations + circumstances you cannot control simply because you cannot control them.
there are plenty of situations, circumstances, people, + life happenings that are beyond what we can control that will still be a part of our lives…
that’s life.
today, focus on living your life proactively + not as a first responder.
taking action can be stressful, so imagine how overwhelming it feels taking action when you’re feel stressed + unregulated, raging + full of revenge —
sounds (+ likely looks) like a natural disaster.
give yourself permission to take a beat,
to pause, recover, + reclaim your composure,
+
then respond from a place of love, intention, + good will.
triggers are distractions + distractions are meant to trigger you to check in with your current state of being.
knowing you feel a way now doesn’t mean that you cannot notice how you feel + while feeling that feeling, resolve to feel a different way moving forward.
who you were was dope,
+
who you are now is even doper.
don’t give others the power to determine who you will show up as today.
choose who you are now, in the moment, + give yourself a chance to live in the highest vibration today.
be you, be dope!
