Happy Sunday!
Have you ever noticed how some situations keep showing up in your life, over and over again? Maybe you fall for the same type of guy, get in the same fights, constantly lose friends, or get rejected frequently. When parts of our lives feel like they're playing on repeat, it's a signal that we need to change our response.
No one is going to do the changing for us. We have to decide whether or not we want to stay in that loop. It's playing on repeat, in order for us to get the message, step up and make a new decision. Learn the lesson. Do something new. Change the pattern. Grow. Evolve.
Or, stay in the loop––keep going through the same patterns. Keep wondering why these things keep happening to you, instead of for you.
Start looking for the signals that there's something for you to learn and grow from. If you feel stuck in a cycle that isn't working –– you have the power to change it. Take that power and challenge yourself to do something new.
Because guess what? We know how it goes when we make the same choice. We've lived that version a dozen times. But we don't know how it'll go when we do something different.
And that's terrifying. With the known pattern, even though it hurts us, at least we know what to expect. Going into something new, without knowing what'll happen, is scary. It takes courage.
Luckily, we're the kind of people who choose courageous action, even when it's scary. Because we don't want to live stagnant, unhappy lives. We want evolution. So, when we're ready, we'll choose to break free. Right?
Until next Sunday,

PS - I'm proud of you, and everything you do to grow into your best self.
