You CAN make another choice

In the words of Ice Cube, “You better check yo self before you wreck yo self.” Friend, hear me out…

It’s one thing to push yourself full-force, through a really important work project or life event.

But it’s a completely different story when this kind of imbalance becomes your new normal.

Sometimes it’s hard to see when this is happening.

What starts out as wanting to give something your all until it’s complete, can slowly change as more layers continue to get piled on.

Sometimes before you know it, there’s suddenly no end in sight. And you feel trapped.

The thing is that oftentimes, you DO have the option of putting on the breaks and saying “no.”

It’ll probably make some people angry. There’s a chance that it’ll require you to make some big changes in your life.

But take a second to check in and remember: What’s MOST important to you? Think big picture here—you KNOW what it is.

How much is this priority being reflected in your daily actions?

If it’s not…well, how is that working for you? Is there a specific end in site to your current craziness?

Let’s get real—how much longer can you keep going like this?

Imagine that six months from today, you’re still at it, stuck in this same place? How will you feel then?

Dear One, why do you feel like you have to accept the unacceptable? You CAN make another choice. You CAN take another path.

While you may not like the immediate effects of saying no, would these be manageable if it allowed you to bring your long-term goal to life?

What needs to happen for you to finally say “no”? Better yet, what will happen when you finally say “yes”?

Asking with love ❤️
