✨Confidence is not a destination it’s a state of being.✨
💡It’s easy to think of future dreams as the destination for when you will truly be confident, but the truth is confidence and gratitude in the present are the key.
👉Maybe you’ve thought something like this:•Once I reach this weight…•Once I look like that…•Once I get this house…•Once I wear that…•Once I get a boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife…•Once I…whatever other wish you may have…
👉What if instead of the “once I” language, we switched our thought patterns to, “Now I…”.✔️Now I have the skills to do my job well.✔️Now I have the knowledge to make healthy choices.✔️Now I have the drive to get today’s tasks done.✔️Now I have the love and patience to care for my family well.✔️Now I have the perspective to know when I need to work hard and when I need to rest.✔️Now I am excited about how I can respect and love my body today.
•This changes our thoughts from future to the present. •What you have now and are learning in the present will help you get whatever goals you have for the future. •If you live in the now and are confident in who you are, you will you enjoy each day more because of that.•You will be more fulfilled once you reach your goal if you’ve felt confident the whole time on the way up. •If you don’t know how to live in gratitude and confidence in the present, its very very difficult to ever feel that gratitude even when you reach a goal. There will always be a “next best thing.”
💛You will be so much more happy during the growing process which will bring you even MORE confidence, satisfaction, and in turn, more success because of your present gratitude and confidence.
