Why Does This Seem Familiar? Or Same?

I Didn’t Park My Car Here.

HAHAHAHA

I was reading one of the newsletters I subscribed to this past week from Annie Grace. If you don’t know her work This Naked Mind I highly suggest looking it up. She is a gem of a woman and has an amazing story. A huge advocate of growth and sobriety. She has a unique perspective for people who are sober curious, currently sober, or just looking to grow in life. Not everything is geared toward those in recovery. Many of us within this space have universal ideas. Those in recovery just take things too far and enjoy testing society’s limits. One of her topics this week was “Change might seem hard, but staying the same is worse”. Well dammit if that ain’t true. I don’t know about you guys but I am all for not staying in the same dang spot. Maybe it's my Sagitarrius nature to try new things and get bored easily, or it’s just growth over time. Probably both.??

It reminded me of a quote “The only constant in life is change”. Nailed it! Swan dive and high five! I believe a lot of different things started to hit me this week and there’s a lot of change in the world going on. We’re in an election year, cheese is super duper expensive, fitness gurus are yelling at everyone, and generally speaking depression in the US is super high. There’s a lot to blame on social media and mainstream media, but you also have to look at yourself a bit and realize you’re the one giving into it. Hence the need for change.

I only have two things in mind this week, It’s all we need:??

1. Ditch The Bitch:?Take a breather from being negative Nancy for the love of all that is holy. Life is not that bad. Sure we have problems all around us, but we have a choice to engage or not. This is something I deal with every day with these crazy meth heads coming into the facility. They’re worried about 78 other things but the one that matters is getting healthy and framing their mind. So many people worry about what everyone else is doing or thinking except themselves. How about we ditch all of the complacency and figure out how to better the situation around ourselves and our loved ones? The more you stay in the same frame of mind the worse it is going to get.????
2. Plant a Seed: Create a new perspective just like the forest or your garden. Nature is always in flux or changing so why can't we as humans do the same? We just need to plant the new seed to a new beginning. The best thing I found to do is commit yourself to achieving one small goal that will move you forward. It doesn’t matter what it is just that you take action to do it. Meet some new people, get rid of old habits, start a blog, learn a new recipe, try sushi, or just go travel or take time off. All of these things will open up your mind to new experiences. Stop living to survive.???

Staying in the same place is comfortable I get it. We get complacent with a paycheck or lot in life. We get set in the same routine. I know I regard routines as a good thing, but not the same one forever and ever. Keeping a routine is for growth to the next phase and achieving goals not to remain a sad Sally (You’re Welcome Dagg). Take it from the almighty favorite quotron himself (well supposedly) Albert Einstein:?

“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results”

Mic Drop. I am going to go raise a new cheese investment fund now.
