One of the biggest struggles I used to have was being in a constant battle with my mind. I found myself beating myself up internally. I had a stream of negative thoughts coming through and I felt as though I had no control over them. Which lead to me always feeling like I was low confidence, low on energy, low on ambition and like I couldn't get anything done.
The thread of thoughts that went through my head was doing the opposite of helping me feel any better...
“I’m not doing enough”
“I look like I’ve let myself go”
“I’m so out of shape”
“I feel gross"
“I need to get my life together”
“I'm so far behind"
MY BRAIN WAS A BULLY!! I always wanted to escape my mind & wished I could just FEEL better!
The thing is.... Nobody told me that the reason I felt so bad was because I was thinking bad. I let my monkey mind take over and wasn't controlling it myself.
The truth is, we can control our minds OR our minds will control us. We get to decide. It's a privel...
