You ever feel like when shit hits the fan it just keeps raining shit? Like when one thing goes wrong literally everything follows suit? That’s exactly how my ENTIRE life had been going for YEARS and it literally NEVER occurred to me that it was ENTIRELY MY FAULT. I blamed everything else on the planet except myself. Everything you put out into the universe is paid back to you. I was putting out every negative vibe there was. Oh poor me, why does this keep happening to me, of course this is happening why wouldn’t it, etc. I was the world’s biggest walking talking dumpster fire playing the world’s smallest violin wondering why all this bad shit keeps coming. You want to know why my life was shit? BECAUSE I WAS ASKING FOR IT! My actions, my thoughts, my energy was all negative and the universe was matching it. Literally the moment we decided that our life was in need of a complete change, everything started changing for the better. I breathe love into myself, everyone around me, and into the universe and that is repaid. There are times when I know I’m being tested. Things just won’t go quite my way or in the way I was hoping and in that moment, I can’t lie, I’m upset. But that being said I try not to react the way I want to immediately, I take the time to reflect on what I could possibly learn from the situation, because everything is a lesson if you choose to learn from it. With that in mind, my reaction to the less than desirable things that happen is dramatically different than it would’ve been 6 short months ago and the outcome of such events is also dramatically different. Some events are out of our control but our reaction to those things is completely within our control. If you can flip the script and try to find the positive in every situation it’s going to dramatically improve your outlook on life. Everything in my life is improving, day by day and it’s not by accident or happenstance. Each improvement has been preceded by a lot of intentional hard work and introspection. If you aren’t happy with how your life is going maybe it’s time to take a good hard look at yourself. Everything begins and ends with YOU.
