This year for Lent

“Our doubts are traitors,
and make us lose the good we oft might win,
by fearing to attempt.”
― William Shakespeare

Ash wednesday 2012 was the year I decided to make changes in my life. I decided that in order to become the best possible human I could be, I needed to address the things that I didn’t like about myself. That was the year I decided to work on letting go of the past. Ever since then I’ve been on a continuous journey to self improvement and empowerment. Because of the personal choices I made in 2012, 2013 proved to be a really good year, with everything I wanted happening.  It made me realize how much control I have over my life and how it plays out. 2014 so far is proving to be the same, this year for lent I decided to give up self doubt. I realized that I doubt myself on a constant basis, be it about my career, love, finances, and life. Nothing I do is done on the fly, I over analyze everything because I fear failure, rejection, loss and most of all disillusionment. This by far is proving to be the hardest change, but a necessary one. I started this blog almost four years ago as a way of expressing myself because I rarely reveal my true thoughts, feelings and self, so I guess I can say that my personal growth began then. So to a better 2014 filled with self-discovery, laughter and most of all randomness.

XO,
