It's different this time, and I'm excited!!!

It's different this time...

Until recently I believed that all of my moves over the past year and a half have shared the same common denominator: I was running away from something. I've spent a lot of time lately reflecting on this, and during this time of reflection, my perception of these moves has changed. Before, all of that moving was based on getting away: away from hurtful memories, failed relationships, broken hearts, unfaithful friends...away from failing. My focus was on all of the things that I couldn't handle or control (or didn't believe I could handle and control)- the "failures," the obstacles that hurt me, the negative things that were happening in my life. I lived in fear that these things would ultimately break me, so I would leave before I broke. While focusing on these negatives and by moving away from them rather than embracing them and learning/growing from them, I was constantly setting myself up for disappointment and disaster. 

When I change my focus and perception of these moves and why I moved, it becomes clear that many successes have come from them (and continue to come from them). All of the moves (and falls that come with them) HAVE made me stronger and more determined to keep moving forward and achieve a life of ultimate success, love, and happiness. I still struggle sometimes to stay focused on the positives and the growth, but I am at least aware of it and can take those steps needed to make the best out of it all.

This move to Colorado IS different. I didn't move here to get away; I moved here to get ahead- to move towards a life of greatness and success. I moved here to turn my dreams into reality
(which I am doing), to learn and to grow. I moved here to move onward... to happiness, success, love, powerful & stronger relationships- toward the life of greatness that I deserve and will ultimately achieve. I am taking all of the life lessons that I have learned (and continue to learn) along the way, and I'm creating my reality. I am embracing the "failures" that will happen and will only succeed because of them. :)
