I Don’t Have Resolutions…
At the end of each year, I always hear about goals and resolutions. I don’t have resolutions - I plan out my year quarterly. I also pick a word I am mindful of during the year and ensure I understand what it means to me. This year is: “Let Them” … If you know me - you know that I follow Mel Robbins, a life coach and positivepreneur . What do I mean “positvepreneur”. She is a very positive person and has helped many to find their worth and how to make their lives better, she is a life coach and I would say she is a bit more than that. She has a new book called “The Let Them Theory”. I am done being a people pleaser. I used to be a BIG people pleaser, which would get me in so much trouble.
I was stressed out and depressed and could not cope with the amount of things going on in my life, and when I heard her talking about “The Let Them Theory” - it resonated with me. No more allowing toxic people in my life, letting people go who did not do anything for me, including past clients. I work with people daily; I need to protect my positive space with hard-working, creative, happy, non-toxic individuals like myself. And that has been a game changer for me.
If someone I know doesn’t want to be my friend - I let them. If someone talks bad about me - I let them, and when it is all said and done - I can see people for who they are. Now, this does not mean if I am having a problem with someone or vice versa, I don’t write them off. If they sincerely want to talk with me about it - THAT is positivity in a way to work out problems and communicate instead of going silent or ghosting each other. It is the mature adult way of working out issues.
I hope your January has been good to you, and if not - always remember you’ve got this!
