Day 64

10:00 AM

People change... Everybody can change if they want to. The famous line " That's just me, there is nothing I can do about it, I can't change", has never been true. That's just an excuse that we use... Everybody and everything changes... Nothing stays the same. The question is do we want to change...? Are we strong enough to resist our mind in order to change...? How bad do we want it...?
Look in the mirror... Take a deep look into your own eyes... Then, grab a lipstick, and on the right side of the mirror write all the positive things that you have in your life. All of it... On the left side write all the negative things in your life. Be honest with yourself, write everything down... Then, back up and take a look at the mirror. Is the list on the left side longer....? The list on the right side is not long enough...? If so, you know what to do. There is your motivation...
Wake up in the morning and start changing. At the beginning you will not know how to go about it. What to do in order to change. It doesn't matter, just male up your mind that you are going down the path... Then the path, the things you need to do, will come on their own. All you have to do is wake up, and get out of bed....

Many of us genuinely want to change, to improve, to breathe with full lungs... We are willing to take all the necessary steps. The problem is we don't last long, we fail pretty quickly, and then drop back into our old life... Why do we fail...? We fail because we want the change to be rapid, we want it to be visible from the very beginning. We don't like baby steps, patience is a foreign word for most of us... Like taking a shower, we want to go from dry to wet in a matter of seconds. Instant... Instant success, instant food, instant change, in today's world, the word patience has been substituted with instant...
However, if you want to experience change you have to walk in the fog. Walk for a long time, and slowly, slowly get wet. It takes a long time to go from dry to wet when walking in the fog... It also takes a long time to dry off once getting wet... Patience needs to become the main word in our life. Just walk, nice and slow. Don't look forward, don't look back, just walk and feel the fog... Cultivate the vision in your head, the vision of a mirror with the list only on the right side. Empty space on the left... Love your new self before it even becomes new... And don't forget to breathe...
