I agree; when we DO despite of what we THINK, it helps us see that our thoughts are not reality. Thank you for the comment, and much love to you.

You are definitely not alone, friend. What helped me get over the thought you quoted was realizing that I am who I choose to be. No one and nothing can take away our ability to choose how we act and react in this world. That is such a liberating thing to realize! Thank you for the comment, and for acknowledging my husband, he is definitely my angel. Much love to you!!

That is so wonderful, that you started challenging your thoughts! It's very exciting, indeed, to push the limits you thought you had and realize that they are actually not there! I wish you so much joy and happiness on this journey! And your Mom seems wonderful, listen to her; people who love us have more truthful opinions of us than we do. So much love to you!!

Thank you for having me as a Guest Author, dear Ikechi, I'm honored by your trust and patience. I'm happy to have met you.

I love what you have written here, beautiful choice of words, couldn't agree more.

We are who we choose to be, and when we throw our excuses out, that's when we can really begin to be the people we want to be. Thank you again for having me.

Hi Harleena!

Thank you very much for your comment. I do think it's natural for all of us to make excuses, it's just how our brains work - always looking for ways to make us look better:) It's all fine, every thought is fine, as long as we recognize it and don't let it affect our actions. As long as we can smile to it and be who we want to be nonetheless:)

I'm happy you enjoyed the post. Have a wondrous week:)

Thank you very much for your comment, Andrew.

If you don't think, then you are doing a very good job, not thinking is something I aspire to do every single day.

I agree, people do tend to be lazy. But I think they wouldn't be this lazy if they didn't believe that change is impossible or very hard for some reason. I think people are lazy because they don't see themselves succeeding at all, so they don't want to put work into something they find unachievable anyway. If they would believe in themselves, I think more people would be willing to put in the work.

Most of the time, momentary things seem more satisfying, like enjoying that burger, like you said:) It's all about what you're willing to sacrifice.

Thank you again for the comment!

Thank you for the comment, dear Max, I'm happy you could connect with what I had to say.

Reading about you made my heart swell with joy, the message you give with your life is wondrous. The people who don't have the chance to run away from themselves can be the brightest lights of our world. I was bedridden because of a mental issue when I decided to change as a person. It was either "change" or "suffer." So I chose to change, and this choice is what I try to help others make as well. Because it's so much better to change than to suffer. Change is what makes life a wonder. We can face anything with a smile if we want to. Thank you for being a shining light, Max:)
