Iām going to do this and furthermore...#imgoingtoenjoyit. Thatās my attitude for the perpetual today. Iāve decided. Iām very guilty of thinking negatively about the goals I set for myself, the dreams that fill my head and the good challenges that present themselves to me. I give up on myself without even trying. I consider my track record of indiscipline and decide for myself that that is the only way things will ever go; I will give up before the finish line. If Iām honest I spend more time thinking about what I canāt do, donāt have or havenāt attained to, than being thankful about whatās already in my hands. Itās harder to see in myself what people see. Itās difficult to appreciate that I have something to give that someone else is happy to receive. ā To compound the issue, I do this thing where itās all or nothing. Instead of allowing myself incremental steps, I want to do the deed cold turkey and then get upset when things go quickly south. If God Himself wonāt put more on us than we can bear why do we feel the need to yoke ourselves into commitments that feel like bondage, take the corner of change too quickly, and then berate ourselves when we donāt meet our own lofty self-imposed standards. ā Today Iām #breakingupwithdefeat (thank you @kingjermaine Iām borrowing this. Side note see his insta, check out his book) and Iām deciding in spite of every thought thatās telling me otherwise, every 'what if' and why I shouldnāt, that itās win and not lose with this one. Win...ok, and lose too. Imma lose a few things in the process. But the right things (or is that the wrong things) are going to fall right off. Whatās your āthis oneā? Own it. #attitudedeterminesaltitude #mindovermatter #levelup #accountabilityiskey #eyesfront #goalsahead #gimmeareason https://www.instagram.com/p/BqOfSeAg4A5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c5rqnwl2yrh9
