Sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can come together instead of the good things that fall apart. If you’ve been around long enough, I’m sure at one point in your life you can think about how something that seemed right and good ended suddenly, or perhaps not so suddenly, only for something better to begin. I’ve seen this happen to me several times in my own life, and while endings can sometimes be difficult and even sad, they almost always come with the promise of a new beginning and an all-important sense of hope.
The wonderful thing about life is that every morning we are lucky enough to open our eyes it gives us the chance to start over.. Each of us, when we decide to change something in our lives that no longer works well for us or is of little importance, is given a clean slate to make that change. This usually becomes a chain reaction, conscious or unconscious.
Why is a fresh start important?
For example, almost three years ago I decided to take better care of myself. I didn’t become depressed and take every diet pill out there or join the most expensive gym I could find and spend hours a day there. Even though I don’t have a weight problem, I decided to eat less and exercise 30 minutes a day just to live happier and more responsibly. It’s a pretty small decision, it’s personal blog Feeding the page as content turned into many positive things in my life, such as reconnecting with old friends, getting a promotion at work, and buying my dream car. The beginning of this chain series was a small start that I made without knowing that this would happen.
That’s how it usually happens, right? We were sick and tired of our current situation and finally decided to do something about it. And while the universe sometimes does this for us, at least we always have the power to control how we respond when it comes time to start over. At this point in my life I have of course realized that change is inevitable, so why not embrace change and make the best of it and come out the other side with a better, stronger, smarter and tougher version of you?
Below are some ways we can move from fearing change to being excited about the possibilities it can bring.
Accept that it’s time to make this new beginning
Make peace with the fact that a new chapter is necessary and start thinking about all the possibilities that lie ahead of you rather than dwelling on what you’ve left behind in the past. Take an honest account of your life and identify the things that make you happy or those that don’t. After all, life moves one way or another, so why not live for the good that might be instead of the good that is?
Our intuition is very good at guiding us to the right path.
If you’ve been thinking about it for a while, feel like change is coming, or are hesitant to make that leap, my advice is just don’t delay! Life is too short guys! That inner voice that we all hear telling us that something is over, something is no longer right, or something is going well. 6th sense is rarely wrong. Listen to your intuition.
Work to change old habits and create new ones
We often go through turbulent times in life because we accept that everything is as it should be. It’s never too late to learn something new, meet new people, take up a new hobby, or even change a routine you’ve been in or a mindset you’ve had forever. Be open to change, experimenting with what doesn’t work until you find what works. If there is a problem, there is a reason even if you don’t see it.
talk to someone
Reach out to a friend or family member who knows you well and have an honest discussion about what’s going on. Oftentimes, I think getting an outsider’s opinion is invaluable because they can see things much more objectively than we can. We have a tendency to put up a curtain when it comes to our own lives, so talking about a situation with someone who isn’t directly involved can give us just the right amount of clarity we need to make that fresh start. Not everyone’s words are listened to. Don’t forget this fact!
Don’t wait for the “right time”
You’ll probably find yourself waiting for a long time, because there’s rarely a right time to do something that we might find scary, at least at first. Don’t wait for a new year or a new month or even next Monday. The moment you feel a fresh start is needed, decide, commit, and do everything in your power to get yourself to where you really want to be.
Don’t worry about what others will think
After all, this is not their life. You need to do what’s right for you without fear of judgment or disapproval because you’re the one who has to live with the decisions you make, not them. If you decide to stay in a situation that does not make you happy, you have decided to live with it. If you decide to do something about it and are brave enough to make that leap, adjust for any negativity that may come your way and realize that you are strong enough to do what is best for you. But either way, do it for you. Not for anyone else. You only have one life. Live the way you want.
Get out of your comfort zone
Just because something is familiar and “normal” to you doesn’t necessarily make it right. The normal response to pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones is to not do it. Our comfort zones are warm and inviting and, for a reason, very comfortable. But there is no real meaningful change there. We often have to be a little uncomfortable to find something even better on the other side of the temporary struggle it takes to get there. In fact, he must find an environment of chaos and Feeding on chaos You have to prove yourself.
Try something new
Maybe you know it’s time for a change, but you don’t know exactly how it should happen. This is good! In this case, you have to be open to things you haven’t done before. Sign up for a race. Go skydiving. Join a book club. Always take a class on something you’re interested in. As I mentioned above, often taking a step forward, even a baby step in the right direction, can lead to much bigger, more meaningful changes down the road.
Don’t be afraid to fail
Failure is a part of life. I have failed so many times that I could never count them. But what I don’t do is give up. Every time my face fell, I picked myself up and started again. Failure offers us a great opportunity to evaluate ourselves, our actions, and our behavior so that we can avoid making the same mistakes again. In my life; I’ve come to the point where I truly believe that if you haven’t fallen, you haven’t tried hard enough.. Fail a hundred times if you have to, because when the time comes and you succeed, all those failures will be worth it.
Believe me it will be worth it
You deserve all the happiness in the world, but the world probably won’t give it to you. Love yourself enough to let go of things that don’t truly make you happy. And don’t be reactive about it. Be proactive. Make this change. Go ahead and jump in. To improve a bad situation, let go of what’s holding you back and see each day as a day you look forward to waking up and embracing it to the fullest. Ask yourself, “How was yesterday different from today?” The most important thing is not to ask the question.
New beginnings come in all sizes and shapes. Sometimes big events happen, like ending a long-term relationship that you thought would last forever, or quitting the job you’ve been talking about leaving for years, or just picking up and moving somewhere else because you’ve always wanted to live somewhere else. They can also be smaller events, like dying your hair pink because you’ve always wanted to do it or getting a new pet. Or maybe it’s because you woke up one morning and decided to eat healthier and get some exercise. Because it’s finally time to take better care of yourself. Whatever change you need, just go for it! KI’m not saying it’ll be quick or painless, but sometimes you don’t even know how much you need it until you start moving in the right direction..
