How to get out of a funk and become your best self
This page is supposed to be an inspiration for becoming your best self to attract everything that’s meant for you. I made this page to elevate my life and then it all came to an abrupt stop. I hit writer's block, and I started to overthink every little thing in my life, I started living life in the past and the future, while fully neglecting the present. All in all, I ended up losing all motivation and clarity as to how I wanted to live my life by focusing too much on the little things and not seeing the big picture. Instead of not putting myself first, I prioritized the feelings of people around me, and looking back this is not the way to go if you want to become the best version of yourself.
To become the best version of yourself, you have to put yourself first. What I mean is you have to put your whole person first.
your feelings: how you like to be treated, how people respect your person, do people treat you like you’re beneath them? if so, re-evaluate the people in your life to create room for the people who will come in when you least expect it to change your life for the better.
your emotions: how do you feel, do people validate your emotions, are they understanding of how you may respond to confrontation? are you happy with the people you’re around now? do they bring out the best of you or do they bring you down? ask yourself and reflect.
your attitudes: what is your personality? do people accept who you are or do they try to change you by invalidating what you believe in and what you feel? ask yourself and reflect.
your mental health: do the people around you recognize the status of your mental health? can they sympathize with any anxieties, depressions, or other mental health-related events that occur in your life if you have them? ask yourself and reflect.
your opinions: do people listen to what you have to say or do they expect you to agree with their opinions all the time? do they accept that you have your voice and mind? ask yourself and reflect.
your beliefs: are you on the same page politically or religiously? if not, are they respectful of the differences? ask yourself and reflect.
your values: your values are your core beliefs. stay true to them and don’t sway them for anyone.
To grow from your present self, you have to accept that some things in your life have to be removed to make room for the greater things. Things are made up of new experiences, the relationships you form, the places you travel, and the people you meet. All of it.
To become your best self, you have to let go of the things you can’t control. Once you prioritize your goals and make a mental note of what you want out of life, you’ll achieve it. Let go, find inspiration, and have your ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ moment. Accept that everything happens for a reason and that when life gives you lemons make lemonade with it.
