Looking back and ahead (one)
Was there something you did in 2022 that positively changed your thoughts and attitudes and which you'll carry forward into 2023? What is it and how will carrying it forward make 2023 a good, or better, year? Write at least 350 words.
Self-esteem and limits towards 2023
I believe that what I am about to write below Galen summarizes my actions and personal growth for 2023 thanks to the decisions, many of them hard, that I made this year 2022 which ends today.
In addition, each year that begins is a blank book to be written, it is like a blank canvas. The 1 first 12 days represent the momentum of the new year beginning, what do I do each day? I use my achievable possibles to project the energy of the current year 2023, how do I integrate them, with a daily meditation in my morning yoga and a task that I set in motion?
The story goes that my gift this year 2022 was to be with my family, in well-being, love, and peace, decisive for my life, to focus on what I really have in my hands next to them and in action to bring joy to our home where we have already deposited so many affections and projects.
Towards 2023 I want to build healthy relationships by establishing limits and more introspection because I am grateful for the gifts of life, starting with my health ... And this year I will call it self-love through boundaries
To do this you have to know, then, why I do what I do, for whom I do what I do, how I do what I do, and who would I be without doing what I do, If it is everything I feel, desire, think and that goes straight to the universe since everything is energy and is being stored somewhere, it is like making a bank deposit, that is, going to the bank to see what you have saved from all that deposit of possible imaginable for a year... And what will I get? Self-esteem (my self-care), GRATITUDE, empathy, love, heart, friendship, health, projects, and resilience.
For this to be so it is necessary to get rid of vanity, arrogance, pride, lying, and all negative feelings
Especially moving away from the control others exert over me. It's okay to set boundaries. It's okay to create a different life than even my family. Likewise, it's okay NOT to agree. It's okay not to tell everything I do. It's my life, I'm an adult and I can be my own guide, I can reconcile, so I can take charge and that doesn't make me a bad person.
The self-care that besides being far from filling myself with luxurious gifts and pampering myself has nothing to do with spending money, it is rather oriented to set limits to love and take care of myself. I decided to say No to what I don't like and to what doesn't help me with my personal improvement, to what steals my time for me.
I do not avoid the effort because if it is about energy, this is what keeps me alive. I am like the ant that if it stops fulfilling its function, what am I left for? If what I love most is to speak, to write, to advise undertakings with the energy that my work gives me, which is unique and eternal, it builds, expands, leaves teachings and greater learning.
I will spend my time with healthy, positive people and reduce my interactions with people who drain my energy (blood suckers). I will protect my energy from those who threaten my sanity (mental health). I will think in positive motivational phrases as much as possible.
Furthermore, I will allow myself to feel and not judge my feelings, I will forgive myself when I make a mistake, a mistake, and no more self-sabotage, I will actively cultivate the best version of myself and by the way, I will turn off my cell phone when appropriate.
I will sleep more, especially when I am tired "it rejuvenates me", and I will take care of my to-dos. I will make decisions no matter how hard they are considering my well-being because it is healthier for me, I will leave space for activities that provide happiness to me (state of mind).
Likewise, I will say yes to those activities that interest me, despite the anxiety I feel for the mere fact of doing them. Not only that, but I will live experiences alone, instead of waiting for the "right" person to come and live them with me.
BE CONSISTENT, with what I think, feel and say to go in the same tune, in addition, to continuing educating myself to be able to serve others
It makes no sense to pray, pray, meditate, ask your guides, do yoga, bathe with herbs, or listen to advice, it is useless to do all this if you do not carry the basics with you, an inner change. It is useless to preach charity and love if you invest in bad attitudes.
Everything I gain by opening positive channels is because I sowed it first in my heart, in my soul, and in my attitude. It is an internal energetic cleansing to spread the good because nothing works by itself if you have bad behavior.
Happy New Year 2023 to all of us...cheers for life
