Someone once told me, change your story and you will change your life. It took me a while to figure it out but when I did, I change the stories I was telling myself about myself, and my life changes.
Maybe you have to change the stories you tell yourself about your past, your childhood, your mistakes, your failures your struggles, the pain you experienced, the hurt you put on others; maybe it's time for you to change what you are saying to and about yourself.
In this episode, I share some tips on how to let go of the past and live in the present to create the future you want. You might want to grab a pen and paper when you are listening to this episode.
Here's some of what I talk about in this episode:
[5:29] I had to let go of a lot of things from my past.
[5:44] And in changing my story, it just opened up my life. It opened it up in so many ways. Like, I found the love of my life, I was able to travel to all of these different places, I was able to write books and impact people, with my words in my stories by standing on stages.
[6:30] You have greatness within you, you have a champion story.
[9:11] I remember just sitting there and just feeling like, my dad didn't love me.
[11:01] The first thing that I had to do was acknowledge the past. See, at the time, I never really sat down and acknowledged it I I just kind of actually locked those memories away. All of those times when I was sitting on the step waiting for my dad, I really just buried them, right.
[ 11:54] I think for so many of us, we're still living in the past, and we're, we're still the victim and we're still that little boy, or that little girl that got hurt by a parent or a family member or a teacher or maybe you're a young adult or, or an adult and somebody hurt you.
[17:04] In that healing, maybe you do need counseling, maybe you need to go seek out a professional. In order to get the healing that you need.
[18:21] A lot of us are living in the past, a lot of us are driving backward and looking through the rearview mirror. Your life is moving forward, stop looking in the rearview mirror, we have to start living in the present.
[21:25] Every day you wake up is another day for you to write that story to rewrite your story, your champion story. See, I say champion story.
[27:59] I believe that you're here for a reason. I believe that there's something special about you, you got to find out what it is and live it out loud.
