Time to Turn the Page?

 

Do you feel stuck? Maybe its time to turn a page. Maybe its time to start a fresh story.

We are half way through 2021. We have been living through a pandemic for over a year and a half. How we have all managed and gotten through this time will look differently from one person to the next. Did you try something new and challenge yourself or blame the stress of the pandemic for the lack of motivation? Did you look at this time as an opportunity to learn and grow or did you just coast along and count the days until it was over?  

Sometimes we continue to do the same things out of habit or out of comfort, even when we realize the current story isn't really serving us anymore. This was the case for me with my time on WW (Weight Watchers). It served me well until it didn't. I was too afraid to leave it and try something new. Maybe I didn't believe in myself enough, or have enough confidence to do what was right for myself. I was definitely afraid of gaining back the 50lbs I'd lost. 

It can be so overwhelming when we start to consider a big change. There are so many what ifs. What if what I try ends up not working? What if people think poorly of me or judge me for what I've chosen to do? What if I regret my decision? B...U...T consider the other What ifs. What if this turns out to be the best decision I've ever made? What if this makes me the happiest I've ever been? What if I don't try and then wonder...what if?

It can be a scary thing to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. But you'll never know what that story is like unless you turn the page.
