š Welcome back beautiful blog readers, thank you for taking the time to join me on my my ramblings šš½š§āāļøāØāØāØ
Iāve been thinking a lot lately about perspective and how personal it is to a person. And also how that perspective is truly your reality be it good or badā¦. Such power right š¬ā¦. and then that we can change it š¤Æā¦.
āØA change in perspective can truly change your reality, even a small one . It's all about the little things - when we appreciate them, the bigger things seem less big.
But how can we cultivate change in our lives? Here are some steps that are helping me. Give one or two a whirl yourself sur, try to consistent and when youāre not, remember to be KIND to yourself! You are awesome, so awesome in fact you canāt even comprehend it!šāØš§āāļøšš½
Iām pretty passionate about gratitude š¤šš you may have noticed by now. So the first one you could probably guess , start each day with gratitude šāØšš§āāļøTake a few moments to appreciate what and who you have in your life and express your gratitude. Think bigger than your possessions, and people , the sun is shining, the earth is turning, the birds are chirping, what else can you notice if you take the time? āØšš½š
Secondly, look for the beauty in the world around you. Appreciate the small details and find joy in the everyday. Truly see the waiter or waitress who is serving you tea or the shop assistant who opened the door for you, or whoever you interact with .Thank them, appreciate them, then your not only changing your perspective but theirs too.šāØš§āāļø
Thirdly, and this can be a tricky one , challenge your thoughts., take a moment to really think about how you think. Through what lens do you see yourself and others? Ask yourself the uncomfortable questions that challenge your current beliefs. This can be sticky work but Iām finding the messiness illuminating.āØšš§āāļøCouple this with getting out of your comfort zone, youāre already uncomfortable so go on get a little bit more! It might just surprise you. Challenging your perception can be the quickest way to changing your perspective š§āāļø
And lastly but most importantly
āØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØāØBE KIND TO YOURSELF.
Remember to practice self-love and self-care, take time to appreciate the glory of you. Know yourself deeply and love yourself completely.I said it in the beginning but it bears repeating, You are awesome, so awesome you cannot comprehend- try to hold that thought in your mind , and when you canāt, be kind.
Iām seeing more and more every day , that living a magical life is all about the little things- and donāt we all want a life full of magic! Yes please!!!. When we appreciate them, the bigger things have a way of taking care of themselves. A change in perspective, even slight, can truly change your reality.āØāØāØ Soooooo , thank you š Thank you for taking the time , thank you for reading with kindness and an open heart , thank you š§āāļøāØšš
āIn beauty I walk

With beauty around me I walk
It has become beauty againā
