I have been consistently maintaining my mind shift change. Subjects that used to keep me up at night no longer hold space in my mind. The thoughts of others no longer hold me in a position of fear. I am free from thoughts that rendered me powerless. As I continue to move forward in this life, there is only one goal that I hope to achieve: living with Jesus.
I have found that as long as different topics arise, one can choose how one responds. I choose not to respond to ridiculousness. I choose not to waste time on matters that do not hold any value. I choose not to participate in situations where I have no business. It is not easy to make up one’s mind and remain with the choice, as there is always an opportunity to regress to how it was previously. Well, I made up my mind to remain moving forward and fortunately, for me, that means not returning to the thought that what others think or say has power over me.
As I continue to shift my mindset, I keep in mind, the image of my future self. As God continues to mold me and make me anew, it is important to not only change inwardly but outwardly as well. The way I used to speak; is no longer the way I speak today. The way I used to think is no longer the way I think today. Changing the way I think, has been imperative for my growth.
I am so happy that I have grown mentally because it has strengthened me physically. I do not have tears to waste in matters that are unimportant or that are holding me from moving forward. As they say, no one has a problem when you are beneath them, but as you start to mature past them, everyone has a problem.
I notice that more and more, people whom I do not associate myself with seem to have problems with me and know what, I do not care, because their issues with me will not affect me. I will maintain this mind-shift change and hope that others who are moving forward will continue to move forward.
