out some of the challenging parts—the fatigue, the
curveballs, the strained relationships...etc., and we
find ourselves frustrated.
If you have woken up recently and made the
statement, “Is this it?” then evaluate your life
and tackle those facets in your life that require a
change and accept those things that cannot be
adjusted. You may find that your expectations
were a little unrealistic; or your ideal situation may
just take a little more time, or you may need to look
at the positives and understand that almost every
circumstance could always be worse.
Make sure to honor yourself and shower yourself
with gratitude and love focusing on what is going
well in your life. As soon as you tweak your
perspective, you may find that the positives may
start to overshadow the areas in your life that you
wish were different.
