Depressed or Lethargic?
Anxious or Restless?
Comfortable and Lazy?
Energized and Enthusiastic?
What is your comfort zone?
How do you function best?
What do you do to keep yourself where you are?
How do you change when you want something else?
You are not a victim of your past!
You are not a victim of your circumstances!
You are not a victim of your finances, education, history, or personal drama!
You are free to choose to change anything you want right now!
Pain is a wakeup call to change something.
Suffering is a choice to change nothing and linger in pain.
Life offers mental, emotional, relational and financial wake up calls.
You can choose to wake up and choose to change or stay stuck in your same thoughts and actions.
Keep telling the same story and it will not change.
Stop telling the same story and you see you can change the lesson and the ending.
Keep living the way you have always lived and you will yield the same life as always.
Start living in the way you desire and your will see you life change to fit your desires.
Free yourself from old drama, by imagining the life you really want.
If you continue to enjoy the drama and the attention it gets, you will just create a new drama.
If you prefer a no-drama, peaceful, happy, fulfilling life, live a happy, peaceful and fulfilling life.
People often keep doing what they have always done and expect a different result. (Foolish!)
There are many simple natural tools anyone can use to clear the fear and stuckness.
Remember depression is stuck energy, angry and frustrated thoughts held inside.
Anxiety is stuck energy, fearful and hurtful thoughts held within.
To get the energy moving, we need to be willing to get unstuck, get the energy moving.
