[Music] wow sometimes I forget how much your self-image affects your confidence like I wasn't feeling that great today just feeling really like blah and then I put on some makeup changed out of PJs and I just feel so much better about myself the confidence just got a little bit boosted sometimes you have to look the part even if you don't feel the part you can change how you feel from the outside in I went apple picking for the first time a couple weeks ago for my birthday with Wilson and togi and it was so fun
first time going to an orchard picking the apples from the trees and you guys know I love like my fruit bowls and I love having an Apple so I'm just very proud that I literally pick this for myself and I've been making my fruit bowls with them look we all go through phases in life where we're feeling low confused unsure of ourselves unsure of our paths in life I know I can't be the only one that goes through these phases every once in a while I'm just like who Am I who am I becoming what
am I supposed to be doing right now and you're just not sure because life doesn't feel like 100% aligned like something's a little off your energy is a little off and you know what that's okay we all go through it so today I just wanted to share 10 reminders for if you're feeling low or confused in your life number one growth happens outside of your comfort zone maybe you've been too much in your comfort zone too long in your comfort zone to the point where you're just starting to feel like me everything's blah nothing's too
exciting because you're not challenging yourself or you're not pushing yourself to do the brave thing or the scary thing maybe there are things in your life that you've been avoiding and you've just been playing in the safe space and if you do that for too long it does become too comfortable and growth doesn't happen because growth happens outside of your comfort zone number two is the reminder that sometimes you have to fight for what you want and it's not going to be easy this is something that I was reminded because in my last video I
talked about a song I wrote called the war and I'll link that here if you want to watch it but that song reminded me of that phase in life where you truly do feel like you have to fight to be who you want to be to fight for what you want because you're literally so far from it and you have all these barriers and limitations between you and what you want between you and who you really want to be it's not going to be a smooth sailing you literally got to fight through all those things
whether it's fighting through limiting beliefs fighting through fears fighting through just all the things that scare you all the things that hold you back fight for your confidence fight for your worth sometimes we have people in our lives that are holding us down or they don't believe in us or whatever so you have to find that Warrior strength in you to truly like push back and truly fight for what you want it's not always easy it's not always gentle sometimes you have to be that like strong fiery energy like I can do this I'm going
to do it no matter what number three this feeling and this phase in life that you're in is a sign pointing you towards realignment it's guiding you to realign your life to the path that you're supposed to go you're feeling a little off because either you're not on that path or you've swayed from that path or you're just not moving forward in the way that maybe would be best for you so take this as an opportunity to reflect deeply about your life what is it that I feel like is missing what is it that I
feel like I can change in my life to feel more aligned to who I want to be and what I want out of my life it's simply an opportunity to reflect number four is a reminder that life is not linear life is always going to have its ups and downs otherwise it would be boring it would be boring if life was good all the time because then that good would become your Baseline and then you would eventually get bored you would take it for granted and you would not appreciate it life is not linear growth
is not linear healing is not linear there are times where you feel like you've backtracked when in reality it's all part of the journey so instead of expecting things to go well all the time accept and embrace and ride the ups and downs of life it builds character it adds more depth to your story being able to experience the lows of the lows make the highs that much more enjoyable and exhilarating and worth it trust that everything happens for your growth and that is even better number five maybe it's time to change your strategy maybe
you've been doing the same thing for way too long and if that same thing is not working it doesn't really help you to continue doing that same thing again take a step back reflect and say okay how can I approach this from A New Perspective how can you do things differently so that you can spark a different outcome number six whatever it is you want just do the thing and always do your best the time will pass anyway maybe you're feeling low and stuck because you're not on the right path that you want to be
on and something deep down just knows that this is not right this is not it and yet you've been held back by your fear years you've been held back by self-doubt just go for what you want and always do your best regardless of what you do how you spend your time the time is going to pass anyway whether you choose to spend that time going after what you want aligning with your true desires and your true path or not the time is going to pass anyway so why don't you just spend that time giving yourself
your best chance at life instead of just waiting around for I don't know something to change just go after it it doesn't matter how hard it is it's always going to be worth it doing that thing because you don't want to be wasting your time doing anything outside of that number seven this is all for your character development so if you look at your life like a story or a movie everything that you go through every obstacle every challenge every low point is for character development I saw this on a Tik Tok and one thing
I learned was this phrase do it for the plot your life is a story it's a movie and whether something will succeed or fail it doesn't matter do it for the plot do it for the character development when you look at it that way it's like you can do no wrong because whether things go well or they don't go well it all adds to the plot it's all part of your character development and we know that we relate to and love characters that have like a lot of growth grow they have a lot of development
in their story they go from the depths to the Triumph and we love stories like that when you are going through a low point or a tough situation just think about that and whatever your decision is do it for the plot reminder number eight invest in yourself it's always a good idea to invest in yourself but especially when you're going through a tough time or you're in a low point this is the time to be investing in your yourself pour money time and energy into your self-care into your Wellness into your overall well-being invest in
yourself by starting to do positive habits like meditating journaling go to therapy all these things that can build yourself up just nourish yourself in this time it's the best thing that you can do for yourself all the time but especially when you're feeling low number nine it's it's also a great time to expand yourself expanding yourself entails learning reading exploring new things going on adventures doing things that expand your mind deepen your knowledge maybe you want to deepen your expertise in something build a skill this is the perfect time to do it because if you
are feeling stuck in Life or maybe you feel like you've hit a plateau of some sort maybe all the skills and knowledge that you've accumulated related up to this point brought you to this point but they're not enough to bring you to the next level in order to get to the next level you have to expand yourself and become a bigger more evolved version of yourself so that your world and opportunities will also expand number 10 always make space for gratitude and especially find gratitude for how far you've come it's no secret by now that
having gratitude leads to you feeling more happy and fulfilled in your life sometimes we get fixated on the current moment and the current feelings that we have in our lives that we forget about everything leading up to it because we're so in the now we're so in our feelings that we forget all the amazing things that we've been through all the amazing ways that we've triumphed in the past gratitude is simply a shift in your perspective to see the good in your life the more you focus on what you have to be grateful for the
better you feel about your life and instead of pitying yourself or feeling like the victim just keeping yourself in that low State gratitude truly is an immediate way to flip the script to shift that perspective to start to raise your vibration and to raise your energy so that you have more hope you have more life and more light in your life and that energy will attract more positivity and positive opportunities to you so it's all about Shifting the energy and using gratitude as a key to begin shifting your energy no matter what you're going through
