Things Change

For things in you life to change, you got to change things in your life.

I do not know how many times I have in life came across this statement : "for things in your life to change, you got to change things in your life. Even though it rings truth somehow and to some extent, it has ideally for the longest time served as just one of those, up until recently.

Finding myself in a ditch recently! I realised that with all that had been happening, the complaints, jittering, being anxious and all that was not going my way, i had no one, and absolutely nobody to blame but myself. This will never be a delightful insight as it really requires one to really look within and face your shortcomings.

Sitting on the edge of the bed this one day life reminded me that nobody will get up in the morning for me it was up to myself to do so and, it hit me:" in my life it all begins with me and all ends with me, I have absolute control over my life". I had to change things in my life to change my life, there are moments I still find myself having to convince moa of that truth, it is a gradual process that i hope someday will be engraved in me as a habit, a good one at it. For now i remind myself to own up to my own dealings, it has been slow but it has yielded results, for instead i have not been so jittery as i had been in a long while and while at it everytime i blame another i ask what was my part in it and change or acknowledge that.

Until next time, what are you doing to change things in your life?
