It is important not to wait to make changes in your life. For myself, I have learned that waiting impacts the way one see’s themselves and the world, it puts off or prolongs reaping the rewards a desired change can make such as improved health and wellbeing and it can open doors to an unimagined, inspired filled life and there is no price tag for that.
The people we surround ourselves with will benefit from our improved health and well-being. Waiting to make a change is like holding the weight of the world on one’s shoulders without realizing it and wondering why the life feels heavy, depressive and difficult. This can impact how a person sees themselves and from studies I have read, a long held negative self-concepts can impact our longevity.
I spent many years in my 50’s not making the significant changes I needed to make in my life leaving me trying to wade through depression and self judgement from my unwillingness to make the changes I was called to make from a deep inner calling.
After the years of sitting in that limbo I made one of those changes by becoming a life coach. After signing up for the life coach training course I had selected, I opened myself up to an overwhelming state of fear and internal voices of my inner critic saying what are you doing, you’ll never be any good at that, what if it is a mistake, fear of others judgements of my choice, which I lived through and now I am reaping the rewards I speak of.
I have learned that following my calling sooner could have alleviated a lot of personal difficulty. I was full of fear and excuses and I decided to do it any way (with lots of support from people in my life). The benefits of increased confidence, health, wellbeing, improved relationships, etc. have been worth the price of admission,
