What If You Are Already Ready?
So, the plan is that you will wait until you look exactly the way you want to and then you will start doing the things you love, and living the life you want.
You imagine that when you look the way you want, then you could love yourself, and then you will give yourself permission to have fun.
Could it be that you are already ready?
Have you noticed, that you have been on the "diet-to-love" band wagon for as long as you can remember?
Have you noticed that sometimes you get traction, and you hang on to a diet, and lose the weight, and you think you are really close, and WHAM, you fall off and back slide all the way past the start line?
Have you noticed, that the love of self never came, that there was always fear looming around?
Could it be that until you love and accept yourself - you will not make any sustained progress?
Just think about this.
Could it be that until you really partner with your inner voice, you will feel the fear and hear the judgement and never feel the love?
Could it be that you are good enough already?
Could it be that until you go inside and take notice of were the pain is, you will always be wanting and waiting?
Could it be that you are telling yourself a story about what you can and cannot do, that is no longer true for you?
Could it be that the gift of self-acceptance will make it easier to become the person you see in your mind's eye?
Could it be that you could give yourself permission to have fun, and build the life you imagine today?
What if the life you are waiting to begin can begin today?
Are you willing to be willing to entertain the idea that this is the real truth?
If this is true, what would you do today?
GO OUT AND DO EXACTLY THAT!!!

Very nice! Went for a jog and lifted some weights today. I think self-acceptance is sooo important! Excellent
ReplyDeleteLosing weight isn't always the goal once clients dig underneath their loathing for diets. It could just be losing weight is about losing something else - emotions, guilt, starvation for love, etc. Being ready is like you said, being ready, already. :)
ReplyDelete"Could it be that you are good enough already?" -- that is such an important realization - what would you do if you were already good enough? Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLove this! I do see so many people set goals and get close, then self-sabotage. It is so important that we love and accept ourselves as it. We are ready, there is no magic starting or ending point. Life is a continuous process and we must learn to accept all of it, accept all of ourselves.
