New possibilities...

We all like to carry our life with us...all the troubles of the world on our shoulders. Each night we come home with our backpack filled full of the days issues and troubles and unpack it in the corner. It stares at us wondering what we will do with it...acknowledge it's presence, work with it, repack it in the morning and take it to our new day? Each days troubles meld together in the pile, intermixing. Sometimes when we are feeling especially overwhelmed, we might separate these troubles, put them in piles and line them next to each other, comparing the stacks...

There comes a time when it is time to unpack the backpack and let the troubles go...move forward. Carrying them around each day crushes our spirit, our body, our soul. We need to let these things go. Carrying the troubles with us serves no purpose other than to cloud our judgement for the new day. Frustration and anger can consume us like a fire coming from within. Instead, we want to to treat each day as a new beginning...

This new beginning is a new opportunity, a new chapter in our life. If we look at each day as an opportunity to create a new life for ourselves, then the possibilities are endless. We are given this life, but we need to create it each and every day. Nothing in our life is set in stone, we live in a state of possibility. 

Living in possibility is pretty amazing. Our life is limitless. Anything we want, we can do. Anything we think, we can create it. We are the captains of our own destiny only limited by our own minds. When the troubles try to crawl back into our backpack, we need to acknowledge them, but not allow them to consume us. Trouble will always be a part of our life, we just can't let it become our life...

Here is your challenge: Put your backpack down..unpack the troubles that have been weighing you down...sort them into piles and slowly get rid of them...don't let them become part of the furnishings of your life. Wake up each day and create the life you want. Never aim low...never undervalue what you deserve. Create the greatest life you can...one that is powerful, amazing, and awesome. Don't look backwards, never relive the past...move forward...remember that Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself.

So get creative!
