Own Your Life

I think its sad to see people sit on the sidelines of their life - just watching it pass by until its too late to do anything. Accepting less than they deserve - being treated poorly by their loved ones - not taking risks and accepting defeat. Thinking that the every day struggle is normal and that they will never have anything better in their life. That some how they deserve this fate. It breaks my heart. 

People in jobs that they hate - getting up every morning dreading the day - trading time for money - spending most of their waking hours with people they either dont really like or people who also dont want to be there which makes for a very negative environment. Counting down to the weekend and  cramming everything they possibly can before Monday morning comes around again. People who work so hard and stretch themselves so thin that they become stressed and sick because they believe that this is what they have to do help their families. I know all to well that a lifetime is not guaranteed and that your life can end in an instant. But when offered a gift to change this, they simply say they arent interested for fear they cant do it, or the assumption of what it is they are being offered, or the fear of what others will think of them.  WHO CARES what others think!! We were not put on this earth to struggle but so many people accept that this is their fate and make no steps to change it. 

People in toxic marriages. Now i dont mean marriages where there is just regular fighting and tough days because lets face it, everyone goes thru that. Im talking about loveless, abusive, controlling marriages where one partner is being abused. It doesnt have to be physically, mentally is just as bad, if not worse, in my mind. I have been in a mentally abusive relationship and its harder to see the damage that is being done to someone who is watching from the outside. I have friends who are in relationships like this and it breaks my heart to know they either feel like this is normal and acceptable or worse, believe the things they are being told. To be controlled by someone that says they love you is not love, its simply that.... Control. To watch someone you love have their sparkle dim because they finally start believing the lies they are told day in and day out. Heart breaking, dont you think?

I am currently in a mastermind group and we are reading the book, Think and Grow Rich and after only getting thru the first 3 chapters, there are some powerful quotes i would like to share that really resonated with me. 

1 - Success comes to those who become success conscious. Failure comes to those who indifferently allow themselves to become failure conscious.

2 - If you do not see great riches in your imagination, you will never see them in your bank balance.

3 - If the thing you wish to do is right, and you believe in it, go ahead and do it! Put your dream across, and never mind what "they" say if you meet with temporary defeat, for "they", perhaps do not know that every failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent success.

4 - A BURNING DESIRE to be and to do is the starting point from which the dreamer must take off. Dreams are not born of indifference, laziness or lack of ambition.

5 - Our only limitations are the those we set up in our own minds!

6 - It is a well known fact that one comes, finally, to BELIEVE whatever one repeats to ones self, whether the statement be true of false.


Stop being scared to take a risk, to step out of your comfort zone, to do what you love instead of spend your days doing what you dont love. Believe you are worthy and deserving of everything your heart desires and then go do whatever you need to do to make that happen. Dont listen to people that tell you that you cant. There is something in them that wants to keep you down so that they feel better about themselves. Go do everything you have ever wanted and dreamed of and dont let anyone tell you otherwise. It is so sad to see so many simply settle for what is and never believe that they could have more. It is not selfish to want more in your life. 

If you didnt ever have to worry about money..... what would you be doing, where would you be doing it and who would you be doing it with? I guarantee you that you would not say " i would be at work"! Go get all that you deserve in this life!!! I believe in you, now believe in yourself!!! <3
