If you are truly ready to change your life, you need to change...
If you are truly ready to change your life, you need to change the way you think. If you are not happy with the person you have become, you need to make it your purpose to create the best version of you. No one can tell you what this looks like or how to find it.
You are the only one who can decide the life you want to live. Don’t worry right now about how that is going to happen. Just be sure in your mind that the person you are crafting is the person you want to become. You have the opportunity to create a new life today, but you first must ask yourself who you want to become.

Sometimes I tend to ramble on about failure being a good thing...
Sometimes I tend to ramble on about failure being a good thing because I really do believe it’s true. However, like every struggle and roadblock that you encounter along your path to freedom, failure is only as good as the knowledge you acquire from it.
What I might have classified as a failure years ago, I now see as a valuable lesson to help me achieve my goals. It’s just a simple change of perspective, but it can do wonders for your progress and your happiness.
Let’s say that you went for a big promotion and didn’t get it. Would you see it as a failure, put your head down and never try again, or would you ask your boss what you can do better and work ten times harder to get his or her attention?
If you have been taught that failure is a negative result, you need to change how you think about the word. You need to use failure as a tool to learn more about yourself and gain more information to achieve your goals. Failure is not an end result but a valuable lesson to help you grow into the best version of yourself.
