A few years ago I learned the hard lesson that I am the only person in charge of me, myself and I. I used to blame others for hurting me and then used that as an excuse to be a victim. Since I reclaimed my power, I’ve done a few things to be happier. Here they are:
I stopped caring about what people thought of me. So many people told me I would not be a successful business owner. I was told I should just move back home with my tail between my legs and I’d be better off. I used this negativity to fuel my fire even more. I blocked out the haters and their negativity and surrounded myself with high vibing, positive people all learning, growing and improving together. These ladies became my tribe and my biggest support. I got really picky about who and what I spent my energy on. One of my favorite mantras is Go where the love is.
I made it a habit to mind my business and make sure I’m good with my Creator. My circle got smaller but my relationships with people got to be more richer and fulfilling. I started to pay attention and be more present than ever.
Something else I made sure I did regularly was honor my alone time. Usually in the mornings I enjoy quiet time with a nice hot, fresh cup of coffee and pray, meditate and say my gratitudes.
I started making more time to do more fun things alone and with my son. I love my dance classes and made it a point to dance more even around my apartment. My son loves dancing too and sometimes we dance together. He’s a pro at flossing which is not my specialty. We started having a regular family night and put it on the calendar together. We play board games, paint and watch movies and find more fun things to do together that we both like.
Whenever I'm feeling low energy or just drained, I find things to reenergize my soul. One of my favorite things to do is spend time in nature. I love the water, especially the beach and whenever I can get away even if it’s a few minutes to breathe in the salt water air and listen to the waves, I feel a million times better.
