DAY 18 

Mantra: “There is no such thing as an impossible dream!” 

I know that’s right! 

Day 18 and the fog that took over my brain the last few days, has lifted. 

I slept so deeply. 

My morning meditation was LIT. 

My movement flow was melty AF. 

The whole time I was going through it – I treated it as a place to learn and I sure learned a lot. 

I feel so much more clarity. 

Impatience with the journey has run deep within me for a lifetime. 

Learning to find my way to peace has also taught me patience, where I have it as well as where I need more. 

Knowing is where all the power is. Being able to look objectively at myself has opened my entire world. 

In the hard times, I used to try to think my way through them. My mind spiraled at ideas of what I thought I needed, where I needed to look- moves I needed to make. 

But the truth is, I didn’t need action in those moments. 

I needed to sit and breathe. 

I needed to calm the storm that was brewing within. 

Until I allowed the chaos to settle, I would be looking for the wrong external resources. 

Everything that I need is within. 

I can’t hear what’s within over the noise of the internal chaos and – a lot of the time- I wasn’t recognizing that it was chaos. 

I was reading it as a sign that I wasn’t doing enough. 

I have learned one of the most powerful tools here. 

If I am thinking that I am not enough, I am in a place of punishing myself – not a place of building myself. 

I used those emotions in the past to beat myself into action, but after years of that- I started skipping the action all together and went straight to the burn out. 

It left me exhausted and blind to everything I have accomplished – both big and small. It left me feeling empty instead of fulfilled. 

It left me feeling like I was falling short when I wasn’t. 

That isn’t a place to get ahead. That’s a place to miss it all. 

Now that I am even more aware of the patterns that I took to get here, I can reroute them. I will see them more often and more quickly when I am starting to slide back into this old way of thinking. That allows me to kick those thoughts and feelings back into gratitude where I belong. 

Gratitude leads me everywhere I want. 

Gratitude keeps me moving. 

Gratitude is the deepest alignment with my soul. 

It is my way home. 

Always. 

Dream big. Go for it all.
