20 of 30 Things to Stop Doing To Yourself and Start Doing For Yourself

Stop wasting time explaining yourself to others. – Your friends don’t need it and your enemies won’t believe it anyway.  Just do what you know in your heart is right.


I hear this one from my clients sometimes.  They have started their journey toward a healthier life and their current friends may not support it as much as thought they would have.  The reason is you may be attracted to each other because of your woes in life and once you start to change, the relationship does too.  WM of PBC


Start listening to your own inner voice. – If it helps, discuss your ideas with those closest to you, but give yourself enough room to follow your own intuition.  Be true to yourself.  Say what you need to say.  Do what you know in your heart is right.

This can be hard for you to imagine if you have been listening to others and doing what they would like instead of voicing your own opinion.  You may even find some resistance when you start being the type of person you feel you must be.  In time you will find those around you that support and encourage your new found passion.  You will also find those who don't and you may have to face some difficult decisions. Follow your path and the new adventures it may lead you on.  WM of PBC
