Those were the first words that came to mind as soon as I stepped out of 2020…

What a year that was, wasn’t it!?

What a wonderful thing this feeling of new beginnings… 

Nothing really happened, actually we just added “1” to the number and as in magic, everything transformed. Excitement, hope, willingness to do and try something different, new plans and of course, the old and so well known “New Year’s Resolution”.

For the first time, I decided I was not going to embark on that one, because it felt like a source of disappointment in the previous years and a realization how I did not follow through on my unconditional promises to myself. 

I changed my approach a little bit, though. I’ve been learning a lot about the whole mindset thing, manifestation and self-image. Gosh I feel like everybody is talking about that, so I decided to give it a try…

“Your results reflect the way you see yourself”. Ouch! I thought as I went through a self assessment in my mind and I heard my inner voice reviving a video lesson…

– Really!? How is that possible!? I started asking myself – upset about how some things were in some areas of my life.

It wasn’t too long ago when I realized that I was actually upset with myself, my lack of action and/or excess of bad planning.

Each time I thought about doing something great, immediately I would block that idea and think that wasn’t for me…

Maybe it wasn’t, but I could at least have given a try, right!?

“Whether you think you can or that you can’t, you are correct” – Thomas Edison reminded me of his wisdom. 

– Do I really want to hear all this stuff? – I asked myself.

– Yes you do, Sheyla! (exclamation point) yelled my inner voice.

– You said you were ready for a change, didn’t you!? 

Welcome on board and enjoy the ride! 

With love,

2021

P.S. Remember you can do whatever you want, one day at a time. Be grateful, all the time, because any second everything can be taken away from you. Make a decision right now to be healthy, happy and to Live Fully 2day. It is a privilege to be here, so enjoy the Present!!

How many times we put ourselves in front of the person we can become and instead of having empowering thoughts and taking actions, we allow negative thinking to take over… Because our feelings’ triggers start at our thought level and impulsion our actions, guess what happens? Nothing.

T H O U G H T S -> F E E L I N G S -> R E S U L T S

However we all have gone through situations, called defining moments, where something happened in such a powerful way that has shifted our modus operandi to a whole different level. It is like a wake up call, which make us see the world with different lenses. Almost like life was black and white and after that become colorful and even the minimum details are noticed.

I’ve learned that when we don’t want something we will find an excuse. But when we truly want something: we will find time, we will find a way, we will find money. If it is important to us, we will make it happen.

Because of the free will, we will always have a choice and obviously have to deal with the consequences of it. One way or another it is our responsibility.

While we still live in Wander land, life doesn’t happen, we are just going through the motions. Often living and working on somebody else’s schedule and agenda. Sad. We are presented tons of opportunities throughout our lifetime, and it is always up to us what to do about it. Like receiving an invitation to a party. There will always be pos and cons, but the choice is ours. They say that when you knock the door of opportunity, work answers. It is up to you what to do, and you know it.

God gave us today to do whatever we want with it. That is why it is called PRESENT. It is truly a privilege to be here. We can’t live in the past, actually thinking too much about it, bring us depression. We can’t live in the future, and again spending too much time there, bring us anxiety. Here and now is the only time we’ve got to do, be, become, make a difference or none of the above. I invite you to experience your presence on this planet in a whole different level, if you will and to Live Fully Today!
