Learning to Love yourself and ALL your Mistakes
Learning constantly from your good and not so good actions is what
keeps me awake and inspired – I truly have come to realise that very recently.
You know sometimes when you hit that flat spot and feel like your
stuck, your going no-where OR in fact you feel like your going backwards? No?
I do – I have in fact had THAT recently, 2014 came to a delicious
close and I almost had this lost, funny funk at the end where I didn’t reflect
and honour myself Enough for just how far I had and have come from the living
hell I put myself in a mere 2 years ago.
Thank You Denelle for choosing to change, and then Thank You Denelle
for accepting every single curve ball that was thrown at you along the way.
But fast forward to tonight AND
My beautiful darling heart friend PK on a coaching call threw out
into the wind Everything I’ve been feeling this last week. I couldn’t quite put
into words how I was feeling about recognising that I’d come this far, then
stalled, then felt a little shit, then self studying my place and why I felt
shit and recognised where I was and where I needed to go and then DOING
something about it.

| Ever feel like you need a flotation device to get through the waves of growth? I do. |
So I will use her words, every day there are little ‘shifts’
happening, I’m literally shifting my mindset and growing Every Single day. This
is nothing new you say?
And yes it’s all very clichĂ©d.
BUT today I’ve gone through a rollercoaster of emotion when something
happened and came to me through a very unlikely path and it’s shone a spotlight
on my stall-mate. My standing still and not actually moving forward ability
right now.
I WILL NOT and YOU WILL NOT attract the things and people YOU want or
I want until you become that thing, that trait, that ideal. If your not there
yet and you want to be and you want the success and by success I mean a feeling
personally, mentally, business wise Whatever – then get to hard ass work on
your ass.
Literally Work, Work, Work on your self and then on your shit. Iggy
has got it down pat, get up, suit up and work. Does this have to be boring and
a hard slog? Nope, no, absolutely not. I actually reckon that if it IS shitty
then it’s probably not the right path.
SO what do you do when you realise you’ve hit a wall and have come
ridiculously far in this short time on earth and your so far into a journey, or
new way of life, or new job, or new venture and you go SHIT I need to stop and
review and WORK on a particular area. ?????
I Know that there are so many success principles out there and so many
mentors and coaches, and people who have massive success and that we should
model and follow what others who are successful and happy and do what they do?
Right, yep, tick.
SO I’m going to put that to the test – I Can’t progress in my
business, I can’t attract the people I want to have on my board of my new
company I can’t grow as a human being to reach a higher happiness or
enlightenment or I can’t help have an impact on this world and the people of
Australia or the world without having some painful growth and some serious self
reflection.
I want to share this with you though – and I realise that’s what I’ve
always done before, BUT I want to intimately share with you how I feel and how
I over-come that feeling with a Action to make my success situation better.
SO what am I struggling with right now?
HA – where do I start?
BUT I have learnt hard that if I try and focus on Everything I want
to change ALL at once then I am sure to set myself up for failure.
I am wanting to become stronger of the things I look for in a Leader
– I want to get up in the morning and Simply stick to a schedule…. Simple
right?
Babes trust me I Love spontaneity – YES I love adventure and running
on my own schedule BUT I also want to be able to kick back in 5 years with true
financial freedom, the real freedom to living without a restraint and being
able to help people whenever you want and where ever you want. THAT is where I
want to be in 5 years.
And guess what?
It’s not going to happen with long walks on the beach and pina
coladas…
SO I will love on myself, and I will honour some downtime and I will
exercise and yoga and meditate and give ME the time I deserve.
BUT holy fuck balls – I will NOT be sitting back cruising and
pretending I’m not working when I really actually just want to be working on my
dream.
And I then sit back and thing to myself well when you LOVE what you
do – then your not really working are you?
Every single day I am going to wake up and listen to Robin Sharma’s
success tips for getting up at 5 am I’m going to solidly join the club, I’m
going to change that one small ritual and change it consistently – because I’ve
tried and gone down that path and it worked – but I didn’t make the habit. I
will do the work I need to first straight away in the morning before I have to
go to any events or day job that I need to attend and I’ll do that with the
knowledge and gut feeling of accomplishment and knowing that I’ve eaten the
frog early in the morning and have the rest of the day ahead of me.
I’m committing to reading a new book this week which I have been
given as a task anyways – it’s Brene Brown – Gifts of Imperfection, I will pick
it up and read it despite the difficulty I found when I opened it last time…
There’s going to be a take away and I’m going to start loving myself more.
WHY? Well the biggest lesson I’ve learn over the last couple of weeks
through loss and heart ache and being in a un-observed pity party is that I’m
hardest on others when I’m being hard on myself. And that gets no one anywhere.
Least of all me or the ones I love the most that surround me. If you
agree with this then feel free to email me or comment below and share your
experience and how you feel you treat others when your hating on yourself.
Stop hating on the inside and start pouring the love right on in so
that you over-flow and love all on the people around you.
Sucking it up, being a little bit better and a little more accepting
of the hardness will bring so much more fulfilment and happiness into your
life.
And my biggest things I want to feel this fine Twenty Fifteen is
fulfilled, accomplished, less worried and less overwhelmed. I need to love
myself more – I want to feel more loved and the only way this is going to
happen is if I start loving myself first.
Simple actions – daily actions, simple tasks, daily reflection – If
it looks like I’m being a hermit and working more, then take that as whatever
you want.
I think I want personal success and love and fulfilment and impact on
others more than I want pretty pictures that don’t grow past mediocrity.
Sending Love to you all always.
And I hope you take Something away from this and my journey that
might be able to Help you become a better version and a better human being.

Denelle you have captured MY words, the words I was searching for and could not find yet. Thank you for being so raw and so vulnerable. You have a great gift with words and an obligation to share your gift. Many people will benefit if you do. Especially me! Thank you Denelle.
