Thank you for sharing your mistake.

It makes me think of the MANY mistakes I have made this year but just as you have, I am choosing to use it to grow.

I have been so wrapped up with how others actions have affected me. WAIT…. how I allowed them to affect me. This includes loved ones, friends, and foes. If it was not in alignment with what I wanted or how I thought it should be I would react and usually with anger. I was the victim of all of these behaviors and it made me feel out of control when I couldn’t control my external world, I allowed it to affect my internal world. If everyone else could just do this… or do that… or be this way… and treat me with more respect… or consider my feelings… What is wrong with everyone? What about me?

Wow not how I want to show up in the world. What I realized is that I do not have any control over anyone else. How about rather than letting the outside world affect my inside world, I let my inside world affect my outside world? What if I am the one considering everyone else’s feeling? Am I considering how my actions affect them? What if I treated them with more respect? What if I was the one who could be the change I want to see?

So my New Year’s Resolution is to” Be the Change I Want To See.”
