I'm going to get a little vulnerable in this blog. I typically am a very private person but I wanted to share some thoughts with you today. Even if this only reaches and helps one person, I'll feel like I've accomplished something.
Here goes...I've been feeling really down lately and kind of feeling not good enough. I guess you can say that I've been in a funk. A few days ago, I was at Target, and I happened to be walking by the book section where they had a display of self-help books. Mind you, I was feeling really horrible about myself on this particular day from a few things that had been going on. Anyways, I'm looking at all of the self-help books and I came across this one:
For some reason I was drawn to this particular book. I started reading it the other day and literally could not put it down! The author gives some really good advice about how to stop doubting yourself and live the life you want to live regardless of your circumstances or financial situation. She basically says if you can think that it's there and are grateful for it, then it will come into your life. A few of my favorite quotes from the book are:
"If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present." - Lao Tzu, ancient Chinese philosopher
"Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I'm possible." - Audrey Hepburn
Aren't those quotes so powerful? I just finished the book today and I have a whole new outlook on life. I am no longer going to go through life with negativity and instead positively manifest the things that I want to accomplish. One of the things the author says is that it's there but we just can't see it yet. My next step is to create a vision board and see what happens...
So for anyone out there who is feeling down on their luck or just needs a good reminder that you should always love yourself, I highly recommend reading this book. You will not be disappointed!
Lots of love,
Marcia
