It is officially 2019 and we are now in the first full week of the year! I am beyond excited for what’s in store for this year, and what is in store for you as well! 2019 is going to be amazing for us…but in order to do all of this amazingness, we have to leave some things behind us. We have to leave some stuff that hinders us back in 2018. So for this post, I want to inspire you to don’t bring it with you!
Though 2018 is just a memory now, I believe that one of the best ways to set yourself up for success is to evaluate what you’ve done right and wrong in the past. From that reflection you’re probably notice that there are a few habits, beliefs, thoughts, behavior, and feelings you need to leave behind. I’m going to bring you four things that we are going to leave in 2019 and not bring with us into this year.
Unforgiveness. We are not bringing unforgiveness and bitterness with us into 2019. I first want you to realize that forgiveness is a choice and it’s one that you make for the betterment of yourself and not the person who hurt you. No matter the offense, forgiveness is necessary in order to move forward and fulfill your purpose. Let’s replace unforgiveness with grace toward yourself and others.
Comparison & Jealousy. We are not bringing comparison and jealousy into 2019 with us. Comparison kills! It kills your confidence that says you are enough! It causes you to believe that you need to change or catch up because you are somehow behind your peers. Comparison often leads to jealousy and makes it difficult to focus on your mission. We have to become like horses and put the blinders on and focus on ourselves. The only person you should be comparing yourself to is the person you were yesterday.
Inconsistency. We will not being inconsistency into 2019 with us. Ask me to show you a successful person and I’ll show you a consistent person! Consistency isn’t easy, but it’s essential for becoming successful and reaching the top. This year we will commit to being disciplines to our purpose and remain consistent long enough to reach our goals.
Self-Doubt. We will not being self-doubt into 2019 with us. This year we will not speak the same negative, fearful things we spoke last year. Instead we will speak those things that are not as though they were and declare victory over doubt. Don’t let fear keep us from perusing our dreams. And don’t let self-doubt make you feel like an imposter. If you need help with this, seek professional help from a counselor.
I truly believe that 2019 is going to be the best year yet, and I you should too. I hope that you feel inspired to not bring those things holding you back with you into this new year. To focus on doing things that will make you better every day. And to always believe that your best days are in front of you.
