Mirror mirror on the wall.

Mirror mirror on the wall.

This can really set the tone for my day. How do I see myself? Who do I compare myself with today? How angry or disappointed am I when I look at the person staring back at me? Am I on the right track? Am I in my life journey where I am supposed to be?

Did I make the right decisions or choices yesterday that my future self will thank me for? How is it affecting me now and my tomorrow? How will my future self turn out and what am I doing today that might sabotage or enhance my future?

What we focus on and talk about today will become our destiny. That famous saying is to watch your thoughts as they ultimately become your destiny.

What I do daily for my future self.

Oscar Wilde said and I quote "Be yourself. Everyone else is taken". Not a truer word spoken and it makes a lot of sense. Being ourselves can bring a lot of judgment though. Not everyone will like me if I have to showcase all of me in public but I realized that it is okay. I do not need to be an exhibitionist lol. I know and with feedback from friends and family that I am hardcore. Most of the time I speak before I think.

I used to hate it but I have parts of me that I keep to myself and my closest friends and family. Even though they do struggle, they accept me and judge me but love me either way.

Yes, family and friends will always judge but love them anyway. I judge too and that is okay. I have realized that judgment brings wonky energy and it is a kind of repellant that people naturally want to avoid or stay away from me. I try and keep it in check but also do not judge the judgment.

So no more comparing and if I do I am extending grace to myself. I always choose the better feeling and I am a work in progress. I must be what I can be! The sky is not the limit anymore.

I do believe to compare myself to others is a mortal sin. The creator or infinite intelligence does not make mistakes. I am perfect so I want to stop reaching for perfection when I already have it within me.

Conclusion

I am going to start enjoying what I have created thus far. I take life too seriously and I need to turn to a child and mimic them as they seem happier than grown-ups. I am going to explore more and enjoy the contrast of life.

Next steps:

  1. Smile more.
  2. Pay compliments.
  3. Extend grace.
  4. Give time.
  5. Hug someone.
  6. Give more of what I believe I lack.

Remember

You are a powerful creator and the master of your destiny. Guard your thoughts as it elicits emotions and that is what the Universe acts on.
