It is so easy to get stuck in our old stories:   I can’t find a husband because of my daddy issues. I will never be fit because of my family genetics. I will never make very much money because no one in my family makes very much money.  I’ll never go to college because we can’t afford it and no one in my family has gone to college. I can’t start my own business because I don’t know anything about business. My life will never feel complete with just one child – I’ll always feel a sense of loss over this.    I have told myself some of these stories.   I have seen others tell themselves some of these stories.     We get stuck in our stories and don’t progress in certain areas of our lives because we are COMMITTED to our stories.  We can see past them, or around them, or through them.     But, the truth???   You can find the man of your dreams. You can get in amazing shape. You can make unlimited amounts of money. You can go to college – and grad school. You can start your own business. You can be 100% happy and fulfilled with just one child.     To create a new story, you have to start changing the conversation in your head.  You have to start talking to yourself differently.  You have to be open to new and different influences.  You have to be open to growth and discomfort to find the magic that lies juuuust outside your current comfort zone.  Our old stories are comfortable and familiar – which is why we hold them close to our hearts.     By getting challenging yourself to get a little uncomfortable in new conversations with yourself, you will push you right through your old stories and into new ones that will change your attitude.  Your new attitude will change your behavior.  You new behavior will change your outcomes.  Your new outcomes will change your reality.    Start telling yourself new stories.
