entry 3: see newest blog post "...let nothing hold you back!"
for some secret life advice!
....I was watching their video called "How we became a full-time Traveling Family" and he starts talking about how jumping out of your comfort zone if you feel compelled to do so, is the only way to live authentically. And to live authentically is how you find true happiness. I REALLY REALLY believe this. Everyone around me that is happy is sharing this advice! When i go to church, this is what they preach! To stop blaming everything for causing you to be unhappy, and STOP WAITING for things to happen. If you tell yourself "I'll be happy when i have a career and more money", "I'll be happy when I have a husband that treats me right", "Ill be happy when my kids are older and less dependent", "Ill be happy when i don't have to worry about this, or that", "My health makes me unhappy", etc, etc, etc! STOP NOW!

In an attempt to do the things my heart really wants to before my mind get in the way i tried out a cardio dance class!
​
I usually go to Zumba every Saturday and one day i stayed after to pay the instructor. While i was waiting for her to finishing the next class got started and my attention was immediately taken! What is this class? I asked. And the next week I told myself i would try one song to see if i could do it, and i held myself to it. It was so fun i ended up staying the whole class. Now each time i go i feel more confident, it feels more fun and it has given me confidence that i take with me when i leave! Im so happy!
I feel like i just didn't believe in myself enough, but now that i proved to myself i CAN do it, i have a whole new confidence and mind set. This feeling is only going to continue to grow as i learn and practice believing in myself more!!!

Dear past me you are your own self. You have finally realized that. You are the only thing capable of holding you back. Make that comment that your scared to make because of what other people will think of you when you say it. Where the clothes, go to the dance class, try, don't discourage yourself. Do the things that you want to do, the things that feel natural, the things that make you feel passionate, and happy, and free, because that is who you are. Beneath all the conditioning you think others are holding to you...
