Thinking Outside The Box

Everyone who has had a great idea, had to think outside the box. They broke away from the uniformity of a group, and started something new. People sometimes frown on individuals who do this. Why? It is because no one else thought that way.

In order to become what we are truly meant to be, we need to have the courage to express our own ideas, even if we think about something differently. It's challenging. As individuals, we are like no other on this earth. We are unique and different. That gives us a wonderful opportunity for us to expand our gifts and teach others.

It is a bit scary at first, but we can overcome our fear of looking silly or feeling uncomfortable. We need to take the risk, and be who we really are, even if others don't approve. We are all contributing something to the world. We all have different attributes that are important to express. So, let's give it a go, and let others know who we really are.

Expectations

We all have expectations of ourselves and others. There are times when we just have to let them go. I'll say it again...There are times when we have to let go of our expectations. Why?

It's simple because it's like carry a weight around your neck. It gets very heavy and can drain us of the present moment.

When we expect someone to act a certain way, we usually end up feeling disappointed. We cannot control what others do. We can never control what others say or do. We must go into the relationship, without feeling like the other person needs to change. Otherwise...again...we are disappointed.

As far as ourselves, we cannot judge oneself too harshly. Are the expectations we have of ourselves realistic? Or, are they too much? There is a saying... Rome wasn't built in a day...

It means that you cannot expect to change yourself or who you are, without work and time.

If we have realistic goals, then by all means, go for it. But, make sure that you are being fair with yourself. Always be Fair with You! You are worth it.

In conclusion, let go of your expectations of others. They will not change, unless they want to. As far as expectations of yourself, make sure they are realistic and attainable.

BE YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND :)

5 things that can help you Change your Life

1. Give yourself credit - I am sure you have done something today that made you feel like you have accomplished something...Look hard and you will find something

2. Accept your short comings - We all have them. It's time you see you "faults" and are OK with them.

3. Fill your head with positivity - You are really OK just the way you are. You have so many beautiful qualities...just take inventory,

4. Follow your heart - You heart usually can lead you to your passion...Listen to it!

5. Let go of the past - It doesn't exist anymore...it did exist, or once was, now it's OVER.

Transitions

We are always experiencing transitions from our early childhood into adulthood. We are born, and transition into life, and a whole new world awaits us. There are so many new things to explore and understand. As we grow, we reach milestones that we never thought we could reach. Sometimes the transitions are hard, and we fight going through the change, but in the end, we are better for them.

Change brings growth, and when we grow, we understand ourselves in a clearer way. Many times, it is the beginning of us becoming our best selves. We are pushed in a direction, that we wouldn't ordinarily go in. The outcome can be amazing.

Let's take this journey together, and press on in changes we need to have in our lives. We will become better because of them.
