Time is so precious. We are all given the same 24 hours daily. The quote by Sam Levenson, “Don’t watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going.” is inspiring. The clock can teach us so much. A well-working clock does not go backward or focus on the past. The working clock keeps moving forward, reminding us to take the next step. You are only stuck if you stop. Take an inventory of how you use your time. Ask yourself the hard questions and begin to use your time to set daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly goals. Once these goals are set, ask yourself how you will take action to reach them. Every step brings you closer to your goals, no matter how small. This life is a journey, and it’s time for you to become adventurous. Progress is measured in all kinds of ways. Keep a diary or a mental checklist so you can watch your growth.
Starting over can feel scary and complicated; however, each day, hour, and minute can be a new opportunity to start over. It will help if you learn to look at situations and obstacles as opportunities rather than with frustration or heartbreak. A quote I read by Nicole Sobon was so helpful that I wanted to share it with you. “Sometimes the hardest part isn’t letting go but rather learning to start over.” Every time I try to learn a new skill, it is challenging. Learning has always been difficult for me, but I try to tackle the hard things in several ways; however, the emotional piece has always been the most challenging. When dealing with emotional obstacles, I view them as if I were watching a movie. When I allow emotions to exist but don’t allow emotional responses to consume me, I can navigate life’s challenges with a healthy outlook rather than a harmful or defeating response. Everything we do has a ripple effect, and our choices impact our lives and those around us. Starting over can be overwhelming, but you can not succeed if you dont fail. You have been doing the work for months. You have the strength to do hard things. Starting over is an opportunity to recreate your best self. Starting over is a beautiful opportunity. Remember, your happiness is your responsibility.
Alan Watts wisely said, “The only way to make sense of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.” Moving and dancing are so good for the body and the mind. Change can be good, exciting, and sometimes painful. It is best to think of these obstacles as opportunities. When you allow yourself to flow with change, you discover new strengths and possibilities you never imagined. Please do your best not to cloak the change with fear but welcome it with courage and curiosity. It takes courage to face the unknown, but this very courage empowers you to dance through the challenges, let go of what no longer serves you, and trust that each step forward is leading you to something greater. Remember, your happiness is your responsibility.
