What I’ve been saying in clinic a lot this year!
“ if you always do what you’ve always done, you will always get what you’ve always had.”
I first heard this quote in a yoga class with my friend many many years ago. It has stuck with me and has moments where it rises into attention more than other times. It seems as of late, I have been hearing myself say these words to patients, and thinking them to myself along the way.
This morning, as I was reading in Louise Hay’s, You Can Heal Your Life, I came to the chapter about a willingness to change. In the reading, she says:
“we all want to have our lives change, to have situations become better and easier, but WE don’t want to HAVE to change. We would PREFER that THEY change. In order to have this happen, WE MUST CHANGE INSIDE. We must change our way of thinking, change our way of speaking, change our way of expressing ourselves. Only then will the outer changes occur.“
So, that brings me too a few questions for you to ponder. What is it that you need to change to be able to make room for the things you aspire to? What is holding you back from letting go of who you once were and acknowledge the beliefs that are holding you stagnant and allowing yourself transformation into the vision of life you are dreaming?
Please share if this resonates. And certainly comment if you have a story to share or something comes up inspired by these words.
