Change..a duffism maybe?

for 15 år siden 0 +0 / -0 1904

I feel you, Ron. I get on a healthy kick when I quit smoking, and I think it's because smoking was so unhealthy that it seemed foolish to worry about my overall health while doing it. Quitting smoking does also makes me more confident and raises my self-esteem.

I think quitting smoking was one of the biggest changes I made that I felt stuck in, didn't like, but deep down inside wanted to quit. Now that I've done so it has allowed me to see many other areas in my life were I may be stuck in and needing work. Because quitting was so difficult I now realize that anything is possible and doable if I put it out there to myself and the universe. Thanks for a great post as I look for new resolutions for the coming year! Ron

When we attempt to quit smoking there is a challenge that generally stands in the way of initial success. Fear, cravings for nicotine, and self doubt hang there in the balance. One day we discover that this undertaking is a major life change. Human nature causes us to be wary of change. Change is not easy as it affects many componets of our lives and we become stuck in our present and old ways.

One of the hardest things in life is feeling stuck in a situation that we don’t like and want to change. We may have exhausted ourselves trying to figure out how to make change, and we may even have given up. However, each day offers us an opportunity to renew our resolve and to declare to the universe that we are ready for change. We may even say out loud that we have tried and struggled and have not found a way, but that we are open to help, and that we intend to keep working to create change for ourselves. Making this declaration to the universe, and to ourselves, may be just the remedy for the stagnation we are experiencing. And, it can be done today, right now.

It is difficult to understand, even with hindsight, how the choices we have made have added up to our current situation, but it is a good idea to examine the story we tell ourselves. If we tend to regard ourselves as having failed, this will block our ability to allow ourselves to succeed. We have the power to change the story we tell ourselves by acknowledging that in the past, we did our best, and we exhibited many positive qualities, and had many fine moments on our path to the present moment. We can also recognize that we have learned from our experiences, and that this will help us with our current choices.

When we do this kind of work on how we view our past self, we make it possible for the future to be based on a positive self-assessment. This inner shift may allow us to get out of the cycle we’ve been in that’s been keeping us stuck. Now we can declare our intentions to the universe, knowing that we have done the inner work necessary to allow our lives to change. Allow today to be the day to end cycles and enter into a new way of being.
