Ever heard that there are no coincidences but causalities? Any action has a reaction.
All those we come across are a mirror to either come to show us what we lack or what needs a little work... family, friends, business or work alike.
Important to note that if life keeps giving you same situations again and again ...and yet again; it's a wake up call to action, to take the wheel and transcend by recognizing the learning, accept what's showing you, understand it and be liberated from it.
Keeping promises to ourselves and self love/respect has a lot to do with boundaries...which, guess what??? Start by being respected by one self. Normally, if others see us break our own promises, subconsciously they will see no issues on doing so themselves which can create deception, heart break, sadness and self-esteem challenges.
Often times is hard to apply this with friends and family the way we'd apply on business or work... it all is connected, it all is related to the same bigger picture. SELF LOVE AND RESPECT
I encourage you to be firm with your boundaries; we can't give from an empty cup nor can we help others if we don't take the "oxygen mask" first. This ultimately can help you replenish your own energy, self-esteem and universal love.
Let's chat if you have questions or need some guidance ❤️
For the most part I apply and keep boundaries even with parents, yet recently I had to test my own "words" with friends. It was hard yet I knew if I didn't went through with what I said, I would not be respecting my time nor myself... I was somewhat leniento though, out of compassion.
Welcome 2025!!!
Bring on the tests, to show we have learned and progressed.
Have a wonderful new year, may your words are supportive of your being and objectives so you can take action with compassion and care.
Until the next one!!!
