My life has been a series of victories and losses. I have learned that setbacks are part of self-growth during my 90-Day Summer Simplifying Challenge. Read my 90-Day Summer Simplifying Manifesto!!
A Recovering Magpie’s Self-Growth
I have learned that setbacks and failure are part of self-growth. Tonight there was a beautiful moon. I did a little balancing exercise. I wrote down what I still need to let go of and burned the paper in the light of that moon. It is symbolic of moving forward with new knowledge and strength. This is a major step in my self-growth.
I have been holding on to “olde!” I have been attached to, stuck on olde stuff ….things that bind and tie me to the “middle ages” (metaphorically to my personal middle age). The 90-Day Summer Simplifying Challenge is the time to say bye bye so that I can refresh myself, rejuvenate my creative energies and bring more light in to my life and work.
Self-growth work brings rewards. Not everyone can have success 100% of the time. That is just not a realistic belief. Life is about little victories and big losses. This is so I can reframe the perception and look at the setbacks as stepping stones to something better. The setback, in reality is all an amazing part of my wondrous journey to discover the new me.
{Coming clean} I was afraid to seek the new me for a long time!
My Summer Simplifying Challenge
Oh how much good the Summer Simplifying Challenge has delivered into our lives. The olde is being replaced with fresh air and space to grow. That space is opening up in magical ways as I have shared with you over my writings. I continue to be amazed at the freedom I am feeling. The space of no longer being tied down to the past. And the creati0n of a new space to be enjoyed as I grow.
How fun is this?
