Quotable Moments:
“Reflecting on what is important, rediscovering what you want, resetting priorities, reclaiming what you want, and releasing what you can’t control.”
“It’s important to not look at the constraints and more around what are the possibilities, the endless possibilities if you will, because those come from a place of motivation and things we want for ourselves.”
“We experience obstacles or challenges, and we give up, or lower our expectations of ourselves, and its in those moments, I believe, that we have our biggest opportunity to work through and persevere in order to achieve what we want.”
“Recognize the things we are trying to control that aren’t ours to control.”
Action Steps:
Reflect on what is important to you. Sit down and take a moment to yourself and jot down the things that are most important to you.
Rediscovering what you want for yourself. Dive deeper into your inner motivations, passions, and dreams to clarify what you truly want for yourself.
Reset your priorities based on what you want. Focus on what brings you closer to your goals, and make intentional choices to move in that direction.
Reclaiming what you want, particularly amid adversity. Most time when we experience change, we often lower our expectations. Resist this urge. Instead, stand firm in reclaiming your goals, even when circumstances are tough.
Release what you can’t control. Focus your energy on what you can change, and free yourself from the stress of trying to control the uncontrollable.
