Take Risks

Today I got to see a woman empowered to do what is going to make her happy rather than stay complacent. She took her power back, and decided to leave a job she had grown from, knew well, and was good at. But she wasn’t happy in the place, and instead of allowing it to be her down, she rose to the occasion and made a huge change! Her doing this gave me more courage in myself to eventually do the same. 

We tend to stay in the same routines, habits, and jobs we don’t like because it’s safe. The risk of failure hinders us from taking the leap. We allow our fears to dictate our life, and what happens when we halt progress or growth. Resentment, the what if story, the unhappiness seeps into our relationships and finances. We settle instead of getting up and taking charge of our own unhappy situation. So what caused her to decide to change it? Because she knew her worth, and you know what happened the world opened up for her. She got a few job calls, and got a job that will help her with her future. 

When we attempt to make risks emotions get more tumultuous. It’s the end of a chapter and so we look back on everything we that we loved. We are reminded of the love and light and joy we once had, the good memories, and sometimes it can even cause doubt. But in this situation push forward and follow through with the change. You wanted this to happen, now get ready to seize it. 

Do you feel stuck, unhappy where you are? Are you dreaming of a new job, new relationship, getting out to gain freedom? Whatever it is by staying you only dishonor your higher self. Yes it’s terrifying, change always is. But what is more terrifying, staying unhappy for your life, or taking a risk in one single moment and watching your life change for the better. Whether it means valuable lessons from failing, or gaining happiness from reaching for your dreams, moving forward is key to a full filling life. Chase the courage, and let your inner lion ROAR!
