Clean Your Mirror
“The worst loneliness is to not be comfortable with yourself.” - Mark Twain
Tooooooooo often, many of us base our image of ourselves from the perception of others. We don't really try to do that, but it happens that way. We let the opinions of others distort our view, the most important view. In doing so, we lose focus in an unclean mirror, a mirror smudged with judgment, disappointment, & failed attempts. But, ohhhhhhh what a little cleaning will do!!!
Be brutally honest about where you are in life right now... Is this where you planned on being 10 years ago? For alot of us, that answer is "no"... That's cool, though... We all have the power to live the life that we want, believe it or not. How did you get to the place where you are now? What is keeping you from living the life that you desire?
When you answer those questions, thing become a little more clear. Now, think of some of things that people have said about you... Is there any truth to what's been said negatively? Now, don't get it twisted... You should NEVER get caught up in what people say about you, but sometimes the viewpoints from those close to us can be dead on. Look closer into that mirror so that you can really see what's going on with yourself.
Ok, think of all of your positive attributes... What can you do to amplify them? How can they be brought to the forefront to be showcased and put to good use? This is what you build from. Accept that goodness that's in you and grow stronger from that. Don't look at who or what you WERE, but visualize yourself as God called you to be. That person that you see in the mirror is greatness staring back at you and you ain't even know it...
Sometimes, it just takes a little cleaning, y'all... The blur that's caused from life's foolery can really throw you off, but don't stay thrown off. Examine yourself, commit to being a better you, stand on that, & upgrade in every area of your life... I promise you, it really is as easy as it sounds.
