Today is a great day that I am starting to renew 360 degrees of my mindset, though I know it will not happen in one snap of a finger but to end this day with positivity and feeling being renewed and productive, I must say it is a small start that I take note from @Peter-Molnar . A small start of taking risk everyday. A small start that would create big changes.
To have this small steps, I wanted to start in my mindset. To cultivate good thoughts and positive thinking all throughout the day, one must have a strong word to hold and give strength to push through the rest of the day. Thus I am learning to have my mantra.
"I need to act now. If not now when?"
It's been a while that I was demotivated to do anything else than staying in my bed. Curling myself and tack in my blanket. Looking pass through the wall in the deepest pit of mind. Letting overthinking drive me insane of those anxieties that will, soon become true if I continue to dive in with those worries.
If I would not act now, then when?
Thus I need to do something. To push to do the things I needed to be done now. Because if not, then I would soon lose the chance to have those dreams to be in reality. Every waking up is an opportunity to choose to go back to sleep and continue dreaming or get up and make those dreams come true. But I have my choice now and that is to act, to do something today. To make a small difference that would create a huge impact.
" I can do it because God is with me."
Lately, since anxieties strike so bad with me and overthinking keeps me awake 'til dawn, I lose the confidence to face the reality of the world. Even to face my own family, is very much difficult because I feel so worthless, useless and a trash. I don't know why did I feel all of that. Maybe, just maybe because of the doubts, the fear and the feeling of unworthiness that was the very reason of my dry relationship with the Lord. I don't have prayer time, yes I attend every Sunday's mass but aside from that I don't have anything more intimate connection with the Lord. But one day, one morning, I wake up feeling tired of being tired. And decided to claim the strength which is only seen and gain with the Lord. Thus, I call upon him and I am glad he responded and never abandon me.
And now I am empowered. I know I can do anything with God who strengthens me. And I can do nothing without him thus I would always ask His guidance, His divine Providence to be with me always. To wake me up every morning and to strengthen me to fight all the struggles that I face and would be facing. Whatever would happened I know I can do it because God is with me.
These two mantra of mine that serve as my fuel to push to act and believe in myself that I can do anything because God is with me. It serves as a stepping stone to mark the journey that I choose to face now rather than hide under my blanket dark and weeping. To skip out of that overthinking and be inspired everyday through my mantras which would remind me to act and to believe in myself and in God.
I know there would be more mantra coming as I continue to journey the path I choose to take. And I will be happily welcoming them for they will help me and remind me whenever life would knock me down. Whenever struggles would slap me hard, I had something to hold on to that would remind me that there is someone holding me too and I could lean as well.
How about you? What's your mantra?
