You’re the adult. You get to decide how you feel as you move through this process. The thoughts you focus on create the feelings you feel.

I know from experience that, as a being, I benefit with each challenge life brings my way. We grow stronger when we go through difficult times in our lives. Period.
I spent years avoiding taking action; choosing instead to complain, blame, and avoid the work. The marriage you want, the lifestyle you want, the health you want, the relationship with your kids that you want? All of that is possible. IF…you actually do something. If you take action. If you do the work.

I’m sure you can come up with excuses as to why you didn’t do what you had set out to do on January first. Our brains are masters at finding reasons and excuses as to why we did what we did. It’s easier to blame someone or something else than to take responsibility for our situation. That blame isn’t going to create the life you want and so, how about you choose today to follow through with your commitment to yourself.
