STAY LIVING IN YOUR VALUES...

The moment you shift outside of your values, Is the moment you shift outside of yourself. Your values are what hold you to your truth. As great little humans that we are, we can be found turning our back on a value or two, to please another/others. It feels ok in that moment to do so, because well when you see another happy, you feel like you're doing good in the world. Yet you can only keep that up for so long. Over time the more you live in the values of others, the more you start to feel it, the more it starts to irritate the f*&% out of you, the more you just want to crawl away and hope no one notices. It's also in these times when you realise what you're doing, living in someone else's values that you start to feel resentment kick in. The blame starts, the finger pointing starts, The 'I did this, this & this...' words start to form. You expect the same in return, yet you never receive it. You're values are there to be your guide in all you do in the world. When you know what you value, it helps you make decisions in life...Ask yourself 'Is what is being asked of me aligned with my values'...then the answer appears. The next step is....Do you listen to that answer or do you ignore it. Live in your values and you will feel better within, in the long run. There may be times, when you just want to please others, but that's only the short term game of life...not the long game gain. When you walk the path of your values, you connect with like minded people, you do things that feel good for you, you feel more fulfilled, you wake each day knowing you did right by yourself, you open yourself to new opportunities that you never imagined was available. So when you hear the words 'Stay in your lane' - this is just it, stay in your lane, live by your values, stay focused on what will move you forward in the direction you wish to go. The more you jump around from your values to others, is the moment you put the hand-break on in life. It's the moment you may just crash into a brick wall and wonder why.... Take a look around...what do you see. What you value is visible - you see it, it is already apart of your life. What fills your environment? What do you spend your time speaking, learning, watching? Who do you spend a good amount of time with - family, friends, business colleagues.... Don't try and trick yourself into what you think you 'SHOULD' value either Another trick our mind can play on us. Be honest with what is visible to you, what you value is right in front of you and the more you're honest with yourself, the more you can be honest with others, and the more you can start to form a life that is for you. Respect your values, create boundaries around what you value and do the same for those you love too...
