The Key To Your Happiness Begins With You
"The best time for new beginnings is now." —Unknown
Are you tired of trying to please everybody in your life?
I don’t know if you can relate to this, but I spent my entire life, well almost my entire life trying to make everybody happy and by doing so I lost myself in the process.
Not only did I loose myself, I also felt broken. My mind, body, and spirit were broken. I began to buy things hoping that they would fill the void in my life. I had no idea that my outer world was a direct reflection of my inner world.
Have you ever tried to fill the void in your life by buying things?
I bought handbags, shoes, clothes… more handbags, more shoes, more clothes and the list goes on. Shopping did not fulfill the void in my heart and in my life. All it did was create clutter in my closet. I was still broken... but nobody could tell because on the outside I was well put together…but on the inside I was a hot mess.
I went on a spiritual journey to find out why my life was so empty
I had everything and yet I had nothing. I looked good on the outside, but on the inside my mind, body, and spirit was broken. My last resort was to begin a spiritual journey to understand why I had a desire to please others? Why I felt so empty? And why was I so broken?
The journey took me an entire year of sitting, looking and searching inside of me. I wanted to find myself and to find meaning in my life. After much inner spiritual work, I finally came to realize that my worth and my value were not determined by other people’s perception of me or by all the material things that I purchased to make me happy. Instead, my value and my worth come from within and I no longer have to prove my value or my worth to anyone.
I felt a new sense of freedom and I cleaned out my closet and gave 90% of the clothes, the handbags, and the shoes away.
This time I am going to work on me
I made a decision that from this time forward I am going to work on me. I am going to do the things that bring me joy and happiness No more looking outside for happiness, I had learned how to look within. I finally gave myself permission to be my true self and I can truly say that decision changed my entire outlook on life. I began to do the things that bring me joy and I have never looked back.
Are you ready to do the things that bring you joy and happiness in your life?
I want you to know that the key to your happiness begins with you. Your worth is not determined by other people’s perception of you. You are good enough just the way you are. Remember “other people’s perception of you is a reflection of them; your response to them is an awareness of you.”
I am so grateful to be a part of your journey. For more information please check out my website and my learning academy.
