yesterday...
i had a 45 minute talk with my two coaches...and they said a few things that make tons of sense...
1. don't always look over your shoulder at who's behind you...if you don't look forward, you'll never move forward...you'll always be worried about what's following you.
2. some people come into your life for a specific purpose. sometimes that purpose is to be there forever...sometimes only to stay for a little while. they may help you through something...make you learn some things about yourself...make you notice something that needed noticing...but they are there for a reason.
3. you don't always have to help other people learn things. sometimes they need to figure things out for themselves. and by always trying to help others, you put too much pressure on yourself. you need to concentrate on yourself as well...
4. when you start believing something is real, it just may very well become real.
5. always ask questions...or you will never get any answers.
6. things happen for a reason. you may not find out this reason until a week has passed, a month, a year, or 40 years have passed, but there is a reason. (i have never really believed this, but its starting to grow on me.)
7. just be who you know you are.
and i've been thinking a lot lately about myself, what i stand for...do i really know myself? or do i just think i do?
and there are signs everywhere about a certain thing i'm thinking about. i don't know if these signs have always been there and i'm just now noticing them, or if they just now started popping up in my life...but they are starting to scare me, because it is obvious what they are trying to tell me.
oh how fun to ponder. especially when it makes you sick to your stomach.
