You create your reality

How do you feel when you think about your life?

Do you have a smile on your face and get a warm feeling inside?

I hope you said yes.

But what if you said ‘sort of’ or even ‘no’?

That’s okay too. As long as you’re happy to keep living that way.

But what if that’s not what you want?

This may shock you but you create your reality. It’s true. Your reality is a combination of the decisions you make and the opportunities you take.

It’s about keeping your eyes open to what’s going on and being aware of the consequences of your actions, which could be positive or negative.

Sure, things will happen in your life that you have no control over. Just look at the world we’re currently living in. But it’s how we respond that makes the difference between surviving and thriving or feeling stuck and sinking.

The power to change things is in your hands and it starts by taking small steps. 

You see, if you always do what you’ve always done you’ll always get what you’ve always got. Life will only be different when you do something different.

And remember, doing something different is not always taking the easy option. It’s not necessarily choosing the road well-travelled. It’s not necessarily doing what’s expected. But, if you want things to change then you need to start by changing what you’re doing.

Take small steps to make life feel different now. Take small steps that will start you on your new journey. Take small steps that will just get you started.

I invite you to look at your reality. Is it what you want it to be?

If yes, then carry on. 

However, if it’s not then trust me when I say you can change it.

Put on your big girl pants and take those small steps to create the reality you desire.

Why not try the following to get you started.

Acceptance

This is a big one. You need to acknowledge and accept that you are where you are because of you. But what this also means is, you can now make the decision to change your reality.
