Rock & a Hard Place
Sometime your life literally makes you feel like you are between a rock and a hard place. No matter which way you turn there seems to be obstacles, adversity, and challenges every step of the way. Just when you think you've gotten over one hurdle, ten more appear in your path. It makes you want to just throw in the towel and possibly change course altogether!
But what if these obstacles where in your path to show you how strong you are? What if they are there to test your creativity and resilience? What if they are put there to show you just how bad you really want something? The next time you find yourself between a rock and a hard place, don't give up. It's exactly at this point where you will find out what you are truly made of and heck, you might even surprise yourself and discover a whole new courageous side of yourself. Never give up on your journey or yourself. Believe that you will always find a way!
Clean Out Your Closet
Your closet has hit its maximum capacity. You've shoved enough into it trying to make everything fit saying to yourself, "I'll organize and clean it someday" but just the thought of taking on that task makes you run in the other direction! The amount of time and energy that it's going to take to organize, sort through and throw out everything that's in there is overwhelming. So it gets put off another day, another month or even, another year. You have the best of intention but you know how draining it will be to complete that task and so you wait...
Our lives are just like closets. We stuff our feelings inside into different shelves hoping we will forget about them or that they get shoved so far back we won't have to look at them for a very long time. We open the door to our feelings quickly allowing us to take a brief look and get so overwhelmed that we slam the door shut and go running away. But just like our closets, our feeling and our lives will not get organized or clean if we keep running away from taking on the task of "clearing" them out. We need to sort through the mess we created. We need to throw out the junk, let go of the past, and care for & celebrate the meaningful items we find.
It's time to clean out your closet, both literally and figuratively. Allow yourself the time and the space to do so. You will feel a thousand times lighter and your closet (aka your life) will thank you for it!
Lessons
Life is one giant lesson. Every day you are tested, you face challenges and you have to make decisions. Not matter what you choose, it's all pushing you closer and closer to not only your divine purpose but to also living your fullest potential. If you don't acknowledge the lesson, you will repeat it until you finally get it ~ and even then there is more to learn! You need to realize that this is the reason you are here. You are meant to always be learning, to always be growing, to always be stepping out of your box and keep pushing the limits on what you think you can accomplish. Life doesn't come with an instruction book but rather a whole bunch of lessons that will make you the best versions of yourself.
