family is NOT your Instagram
community. They do not have to
LIKE or comment on your success,
your progress or your struggles.
They are in your life because they
love you, but they might not
support the choices you are
making or the goals you are
setting.
Once you remove your internal
expectation of what their support
should look like, everything in
those relationships will change.
Give it a try.
HOW YOU TALK TO YOURSELF
I do NOT care how goal driven you are. If
you have set everything up in your life for
success. If you are not careful about what
you mind is telling your self, you will never
get where you want to be. Your body, your
mind, your ability to to put in the work, is
always and will alway be threatened by
your self talk.
Why do we think that the more shit we
talk about ourselves, the faster we will see
results. I have said this before and I will
say
it again, you cannot hate yourself into
loving yourself. If you truly do not believe
your worth, that you are valuable, that you
are bad ass and capable of achieving those
goals you are setting with the work you
put in, those goals will never be achieved.
What about some positive affirmations
instead? Give that a try.
