A New Life – 5 Stars, by Ally Behling
Wow. Just wow. This is the first time in my life that I’ve actually loved myself. I always thought I was this confident person but deep down, I really wasn’t. I started listening to this podcast and it made me feel known and understood. Thank you for all of the encouragement and love! Trish, you’ve changed my life.
If you’re going to do anything for your confidence and your mindset, then the first thing I tell everyone I work with is to journal.
I get it, it’s an easy thing to think about and just not do. But, if you commit to it, it can change your life.
That’s why I want to offer my 21-Day Toxic Thought Freedom Journal, also called the Freedom Journal, to anyone who wants to finally establish a healthy and effective journaling process in their lives.
The beautiful thing about the Freedom Journal is that it takes just 8-minutes/day to do. So, as you think about the change you want to see and experience in your life – let me ask you, is it worth committing 8-minutes/day to?
You can grab the journal for free, and also get bonus access to my 7-Day Journaling Coaching Video Course, which will help you successfully establish a productive new journaling routine. To get the journal and get started, go to www.trishblackwell.com/freedomjournal
When you realize this fear steals life from you, you can get mad. When we trigger that righteous anger, we often find it more compelling to take action and do something different than we’ve ever previously done.
So, I want you to list out what caring what other people think has stolen from you. To give you some ideas, here are some ways it has stolen from me.
It stole my confidence.
It stole my body security.
It stole years of dating the wrong people – just to look cool.
It stole opportunity.
It stole health.
It stole wealth.
Said differently, because I cared too much, I was mean to myself, I dated the wrong people, I didn’t share my true self with the world, I was afraid to try new things, I didn’t want to look stupid, I was hesitant with my business when I started, I spent years where I did things I didn’t actually want to do, I worked to look cool and engaged in excessive striving/workaholicism in order to prove myself and to look successful … the list goes on and on.
I am who I am for a reason and I have a specific purpose inside of me that can only be lived out when I trust myself to be how and who my Creator intended me to be … I do not care about – because I can not control – the opinions of others but rather I care about the opinion of my Creator. I am choosing to show up in life as my full self, because if I don’t, the story and purpose put inside of me will never come to fruition. I’m showing up today and I will show up tomorrow and I will keep showing up every day – all opinions, all distraction, all else aside – I will be faithful to show up for life.
