In this post, I wanted to talk about a mindset hack that will help you to go from surviving to thriving.
Here’s the thing.
At some point, you gotta decide.
To go all in.
To go after your dreams and desires.
To not let your current circumstances stand in your way.
To stop pretending that you are content, and okay and happy with your mediocre life.
That you are content and happy with things staying the way they are. I suspect you are not.
I know, I am not.
Anyway, you come to a crossroads and you have to decide.
Do you stay or do you go.
After your dreams.
Your desires.
Do you go all the way in?
Really in.
Like scary uncomfortable all the way in.
It’s so easy to slip into that downward spiral.
It’s so easy to get caught up in this world of illusion.
It’s so easy to blame.
It’s so easy to hame.
It’s so easy to slip.
It’s so easy to fall.
Into the shadows of your mind.
Without knowing.
Without realizing.
Yes, even as a conscious being.
Trying to deny that you are not there.
In that place you don’t want to be.
Trying to deny that you are dying inside.
Just a little every single day.
As your dreams and desires slip away.
Trying to pretend that you are okay.
Trying to pretend that you are not pissed!
That you are not angry!
That everything is going to be okay… eventually….. You hope!?
That soon enough.
With enough effort and luck it will turn around
And somehow like magic your dreams and desires will come true.
You try so hard
So fucking hard
To life yourself back up
To dust yourself back off.
To keep on going.
To keep on fighting another day.
You are good at it.
Scratch that, you are great at it.
No scratch that, you are a ROCKSTAR at it.
It’s all you know
It’s who you are are
You don’t ever give up.
You don’t ever let up
You don’t ever let em win
No, not you.
You’re a badass
You’re a rebel
You’re a fighter
But really.
Really.
You are just a survivor.
Of Circumstance
Of life
Of your choices
Try as you might
Oh and ever do you try
To fight, to claw your way out of it.
You just cannot seem to get beyond it
The struggle
The pain
The sacrifice
It consumes you
Yet you know that it can’t
You won’t allow it
You can’t
You gotta be strong
You gotta be tough
You gotta fight it
So you push it down
You bury ut
Deep
Deep
Deep
Within
It becomes who you are
It destroys you
It cobbles you
You tame it
For a little while
Telling it how wrong it is
That it’s not okay to feel this way
It’s not okay to be this way
You should be grateful for what you have, what you’ve got.
You should be grateful that you are alive, that you survived.
That you escaped with your life
You should be a good girl
You shouldn’t rock the boat
You should pretend
You should put on your happy face.
You should smile
You should be okay
Afterall you are alive
You are still kicking
You are still fighting
You are still breathing
You got out alive
But not without some wounds.
And these wounds
They run deep, deep, deep
Into the depths of your mind and soul
They become who you are
They drive you
They keep you alive
Your survival instincts on overdrive
Your heart pumping
The blood pulsing through your veins
You feel alive
You made it out alive
Again
Barley, by the skin of your teeth
Yet again
But you did it, you survived
But you didn’t get out unscathed
You never do
It hurts
The self-hatred
The abuse you put yourself through
The sleepless nights
The endless pain
It’s more than you can take
More than you can bare
So you stuff it back down
Again
This time deeper
Deeper
Deeper
Than the last
Into the depths of your mind and soul
It becomes more of who you are while you are fighting yet again to survive
To pretend that you’re okay
That you will be okay
That you survived again
That you are a fighter.
But really, you are just a survivor
Yet somehow
You don’t feel it
You beat yourself up
You talk bad to yourself
You wonder, What the fuck is wrong with me? Why can’t I seem to just get my shit together?
You see others and they seem to have “made it”
They seem to be thriving
Not surviving
You blame yourself
Why are you not good enough?
Why don’t you have what it takes?
Why can’t you just beat this thing? Get past this thing?
Why can’t you just bust through this thing once and for all?
Why can’t you seem to break free from it?
You are chained to the wall in the dungeon of your mind.
Why does it feel like you are always struggling
Always trying to break through
Always trying to catch a break
Why can’t you just get there already?
You are trying so hard, so damn hard.
You have incremental success and it seems like yes, things are finally going to turn around.
And they do.
For a little while.
And than.
It begins.
Again.
The downward spiral.
Only this time,
It’s worse than you remember
You made your way pretty far this time and you broke through a lot of shit.
But you did not break free.
From the chains that are holding you back.
Those invisible chains, their grip is tight and hard.
The more you try the tighter it gets
The more you fight the tighter the grip.
Locking you into place
Sealing your fate.
Pulling you closer
Tighter
Harder
You try harder
And harder
And harder
Fighting
Kicking
Screaming
Pushing
Pulling
Tugging
Waiting for that moment
When the grip loosens
When you can get the upper hand
There it is.
A glimpse of your freedom.
Only for a moment.
And then it slips.
Again.
You missed the opportunity.
You were fighting too hard.
To break free.
You didn’t hear the whispers of your soul, the cries of your souls.
Warning you.
Telling you to use it
To use the pain
To stop stuffing it down.
To stop blaming
To stop shaming
To stop trying to prove how awesome you are
How much of a fighter you are
How strong and hard you are
How tough you are
You don’t need to prove that you are a survivor.
Now it’s time to step up and be the warrior.
Now it’s time to fight for your freedom.
Now it’s time to liberate yourself.
You may have escaped the abuse of endured from others but you are still fighting the abuse you are dishing out to yourself.
Are you ready to step up?
Are you ready to break free?
Are you ready to liberate yourself from yourself?
Are you ready to stop pretending that you are okay? That you are going to be okay. That you just need to hold on just a little bit longer to push through to finally getting there?
To thriving?
To living your true desires and dreams?
To stop surviving?
To come home to accept and love all of you?
To finally and truly break free?
The time is now? The place is here.
Let’s do this together!
It’s time to rise up.
It’s time to stake your claim.
It’s time to be free.
It’s time to thrive!
Why wait another day?
You have all you need to go from surviving to thriving.
It’s already inside of you.
If you can survive and you we know that you did and you are then you can do this.
You can liberate yourself from yourself.
You can have the life you have been dreaming about.
The one you’ve been hoping, and praying to come true.
You too can have it all.
You already have what it takes and more.
You are already enough.
You are already worthy.
You already have the passion and desire to succeed.
All you have to do is say yes, to you.
To say yes to living your dreams.
To live the life you truly desire.
Let me help you love you again.
Maybe for the first time in a long time.
So long you cannot even really remember.
Let go of the struggle.
Let go of the pain.
Of the hurt.
That you have been holding onto.
That you have been stuffing down.
That you have been pretending isn’t there.
Making believe that you are okay, that you will be okay, that you will get there “eventually”.
Let’s rock your limits and power your potential.
Let me show you how to use that pain
That struggle
That fear.
That survival instinct.
And turn it into your superpower
So that you can liberate yourself.
So that you can live your dream life.
So that you can have your dream biz.
So that you can make the difference you really do want to make in the world.
That you know you were born to do.
Reclaim your power + liberate yourself from yourself.
Will you let me help you?
You hold the keys, I’ll be the guide, to facilitate this journey to freedom and liberation.
