Footsteps To Freedom

The disease to please can keep you from living your best life. These 10 things will help you to live your best life and dissipate the disease to please.

1. KNOW YOUR BOUNDARIES:  Don’t be driven by what people want you to do and especially what they want you to do for them. Be the Captain of your own soul.

• CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT: If you want to be something, you would, be a dreamer. Thoughts are your greatest vehicle to start to create the life you want…talk it up!

• WOUNDS INTO WISDOM: Failures are God’s way to tell you going in the wrong direction. Your failures are just an experience, to demote you to allow the truth to come through.
• LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST: Ask yourself how will you be of value? Do things in your life that you can value, and you do that to the fullest and when you have done all of it, ask yourself “what’s next?

• DEMAND RESPECT: Tell yourself every time you are being treated disrespectfully, that I WILL NOT BE TREATED THIS WAY! Know that it is ok to say NO! and once you can say now with no regrets it will be one of your greatest accomplishments.

• BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE:  Even if you did not have role model, or your role model was someone who cleaned toilets or flipped burgers..become what you believe. Tell yourself that life can be bigger, tap into a power greater than you i.e. God, or whatever you call your higher power-BE STILL-tap into the source and allow that greater power, that higher power to be connected to you and when you really do that, you will realize anything is possible.

• TOUCH AND LIVE EVERDAY: Live in every life you touch. It doesn’t matter what you gain materially, a nice car, a big house, nice clothes or even money. Your legacy in life is expressing your voice. It’s important every day how you use your voice and what life you touch and how you change the life you touch how you use your work is your Legacy!  That’s success.

• OWN YOUR LIFE: The most devastating feeling is feeling like you are the only one who has ever experienced something this bad, or devasting, or even good, and then OWN it and have faith in the bad times and rejoice in the good times, is a master of their own life…

• LIVE YOUR TRUTHFUL LIFE: Maya Angelou said ‘if someone shows you who they are the first time, believe them the first time, not the second or third or forth time..but the FIRST TIME! Life will show you many lessons, series of mistakes, ups and downs..live them, be truthful about them, and yourself. When you can tell your story no matter how painful and own the truth in it! You are living your truthful life. If you don’t. IT WILL HAUNT YOU OR HURT YOU!
