LOOKING WITHIN_MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY MOMENT

Rainer Maria Rilke
I have often wished that I had begun my personal journey to self-discovery years ago. Yet, it's always better late than never. Failing to do so can cause a world of confusion and pain not only to you, but to those around you. A difficult lesson to learn is that you are no good to anyone else, if you're no good to yourself. And the only way to know if you're at that place to be good for someone else, is to know who you are within.

Never be afraid to face your fears, never be afraid to embrace your challenges, never doubt your strengths or allow your weaknesses to hinder you. Never fail to take "me time" to reflect within and become more intimately acquainted with your true self.

Discovering who you are on the inside may entail:

Asking yourself the tough questions about why you feel the way that you feel. Understanding that sometimes the way you feel may not gel with the way the majority feels. This can be difficult when the way you feel is perceived as flawed by society.Taking time away from relationships to learn to love yourself and identify your own views separate from someone else's.Identifying what matters most to you in this life, and discovering how far you are willing to go to make a stand for what is right. Accepting others who may or may not view life in the frame of mind that you do, yet allowing them the freedom to be who they are, and supporting them when you can.Ascertaining your flaws that prevent you from being the best and keeping it real with yourself when you see these aspects of your personality. Work with them, they are a part of you.
Taking time out to learn who you are, what makes you tick, and what you like or dislike (whether good or bad, right or wrong) enables you to learn to love yourself. When you learn to love yourself then you have the world to offer someone else. You are complete because you know who you are, what you stand for, your value and self-worth. No one else can define you or take away from who you are. You're empowered to grow, mature, live, and love!

I challenge you to take at least one hour this week to look deep within yourself and deal with some things you have been running from. Love you no matter what you find!

Be Blessed!
