What habits are preventing you from reaching your goals?

I tend to be the main habit standing in my own way.

Stressing over not being able to do it all or when things aren’t done up to my standard.

Holding on too tightly.

Worrying about things that don’t matter.

You know– the standard high strung, Type A, pitta personality drama.

Journaling and meditation are becoming my way to slow down, look inward, and reflect on how I can learn to let go and accept what is.

To remain above the emotional upheaval of imperfection– an observer not an active participant.

Reconciling the fact that I can be my best brightest highest self and also be a work in progress.

Remembering that we’re all imperfect beings and we never really know what’s going on inside a person.

Remaining open, vulnerable, kind, and respectful despite– maybe in spite of– whatever reaction or interaction I am on the receiving end of.

Remembering to breathe deeply and intentionally.

Not assuming a specific outcome, but accepting what will be and letting go of tightly held control and expectations.
