She is 40 and she felt that she has lost a better part of herself. She shared that when she joined work some 15 years back, she was full of energy, not only physically but mentally and emotionally. She accepted everyone the way he or she is. She would go to any extent to help anyone. She was fearless, ready to explore everything. But now, she is scared of everything.
So how did that happen?
She shared that, she felt a competition, she felt she was judged, she compared herself and at that time she felt few things which helped others or were taking her back, she changed them in her. But after a few years, when she looks back, she realized she was a better person at that time and she misses herself. However, with kids and family and all the responsibilities, she is unable to.
So the next question is what is the better version of herself? How she would want herself to be after five years and how she would want her life to be?
She thought and realized she had many things to change. She started working on it every day and also realized that she had not worked on herself in years. Whatever was happening, was happening. So we are like these monuments. If restoration work happens, we shine in glory but if we let them be, after years we find only the remains. We need to keep restoring ourselves.
After one year, she found that everything was totally changed. She felt much free, happier, peaceful and everything in her life had improved. Her health, relationship, abundance.
Think every day, how you would want your life to be, how you want yourself to be, first think that you are that. As Buddha used to say, you become what you think. And then follow that in your priority. No change will happen in one day but over the period of time, you will find a better you.
