It’s becoming more and more clear to me how important it is to WORK FOR, not against, YOURSELF.
Looking back, I have recognized how many times I was the source of my own stress!!!
Letting self-doubt, anxious thoughts, and excessive worrying plague my mind only held me back from showing up as my best self.
This week, when I had a semi-stressful thing to do, I kept reminding myself—
“Be your own friend through this”,
“Have your own back”,
“Be your own source of comfort”,
&
“Be kind to yourself.”
As a result, I was able to show up as a calm, cool, and collected version of myself instead of being frazzled, anxious, and stressed-out.
Some things that helped me were:
💨 Taking big, deep, satisfying breaths to calm down
🗣 Repeating affirmations that built confidence in order to keep “cool” energy flowing
🤝 Thinking nice thoughts in order to stay collected
Whatever you’re going through, or whatever big steps you’re taking, remember to work FOR yourself.
Be your own cheerleader…
Be your own safe space…
Be your own inspiration…
Work For, Not Against, Yourself
