A moment of doubt can lead to a world of purpose. You choose

When you face your fears and challenge them, you begin to see things differently.

I used to look at myself and see nothing. I was stranded in a mind that hungered to let go of thoughts and begged for the opportunity to be quiet. All I ever wanted was to have the mind of a human that could register a thought and think about a decision. I frequently quieted my mind by force and bad decisions, instead of a thought and purposeful reason. This drove me into a consistent hole that led to this image of me staring in the mirror demanding that it stop.

I tear up every time I see this photo, because I remember how confusing of a place that my life had become. On the other side of that, I also see how bad it had to get for me to stand up to the things driving me into the floor. It had happened for the last time and I had finally found a way to fight back. I beat the living hell out of myself and made it an easy task for my demons for the last time.

You are a strong hearted, heavy handed human that can overcome. Not because of your physical size, but the size of the heart, backed by the power of your soul.. At that point, your image changes, and your outlook creates everything that is needed for your mind to be the best version of itself with a purpose to hold all that you can be.

What will you do today to gain enough courage to stare at yourself and say that you are in charge now?
