We all have a story that we’ve been telling ourselves over and over again, for better or for worse.
We haven’t rehearsed it, necessarily, but we continue to tweak it based on reactions we get.
My story has always been about sternly deciding. Even as a kid, once I made a decision, I stuck to it, I elevated it, I worked on it. In the bike of life, I never had pedals that could move me backward.
That wasn’t always a story of mine, though. I had others about my misfortunes, about everything being a game, about no one caring what I wanted and about everyone caring.
And that’s the beauty of the story we’re telling ourselves.
If it’s not helping you, change your story.
Stay Positive & And Then Use It Until It Doesn’t Help You Anymore
