You don't compete where you don't compare.

Image result for competing with others          Why are you in a race with other people? Why do think just because you're 35 you're suppose to be on a  certain level or place of comfort? Life is constantly changing and it's up to us to adapt to that. I use to always believe that once I get to whatever next level I wanted to be at I would finally be happy and content. Life is all about finding your happiness and contentment where ever you are in life. Now and days we let the pictures we see on others pages make us become very envious and really we're being delusional. People only show the happy times, you almost NEVER see anyone post about lights being cut off or being evicted or even losing a job. So, stop trying to compete where you do not compare. You don't know what's going on in their lives for real, you see only what they want you to. Yea, you may see someone just got the keys to a 7 bedroom  home, but what you don't know is what they had to sacrifice or how long it actually took to get to that point. Society would lead us to believe at certain times in our lives we should be doing this and that, but who is society? Were they where they wanted to be when those different years of life came along? That's what is wrong you are trying to race someone who may or may not even be on your level. Some people do things just for show and you see that and it's not motivation it's competition. THE ONLY person you need to compete with is YOURSELF! Be better than you were 5 minutes ago. Image result for look in the mirror  Every year there is a new fad going around. This year I can't really tell you what it is because I'm actually not paying attention (keep reading because I remembered it)! But last year it was being skinny and having no waist with a huge butt! So all year that's what people were aiming for, they didn't care how they got it, they just wanted it because "society" said that's what men wanted. Not too many people thought about maybe their personality would be what attracted someone. Now that the infatuation with butts and tiny waists are over everyone wants to be a social media star! It's like no one has a brain of their own, whatever is popular at the time is what they aim for, so sad. If you want to be happy stop competing with other people and live your life and really chase YOUR dreams and not everyone else's.  We all are here for one reason or another, what you shouldn't do is compare your life with anyone else's.

Outgrowth

Ever sit and realize that certain things or certain people aren't appealing to you anymore? Sometimes we outgrow friends. I am one who knows when it's time to let people go and move on. I hate to break off friendships because I always feel like the bad person, but I have to remind myself that I'm growing and some people just can't come along.  You can't carry dead weight on a new journey. You're entering another stage in life and some people can hinder you. Some people you gotta let go so they can find their way. The best way to end these relationships are to tell the person. It's hard trust me, I know. It's never easy to let go of what you think is good. I think that's because we feel like if we let it go then maybe we'll never have it again. Which is ultimately not true. One door closes another opens! My blogs come from personal experience. You know how you hang out with an old friend and it feels awkward? That's because you've outgrown...

Your PAST is NOT your FUTURE!

Image
     Why do we get so hung up on our pasts? We let our past history dictate how we live our lives and what we will become. It's because we're human and that's what we know, until someone comes into our lives and shows us differently. For some it's too late but for others it's right on time. If you've come from a broken home where there was no clean example of love, respect and togetherness you  tend to follow that example and live that way. Can you change that and live a better life? Yes, yes you can it's all up to you to do the work and make it work. Even those who come from a great environment can sometimes miss out on important things in their households. Just because they have a beautiful home and what seems like a loving family doesn't mean it's always  true. I came from a broken home and was determined not to go down that same road with myself or my children. It wasn't easy breaking what seems to be the norm in my life but it can be done. Y...
