A Lion does not concern himself with the opinion of sheep
What does that even mean?
How does someone even go about putting that to everyday use?
Well recently I’ve been using it a lot. It scares the crap out of me and no its not easy but you want to know what it is? Healthy.
When I finally hit my breaking point it was because I was doing everything in my life for other people and not for me. I finally realized that for me to actually be happy and for me to actually make change in my life to create happiness I had to stop making choices and life decisions based on everyone else and start making them based on me. Did I loose people? Yes. Did I miss and hate how things ended and the pain it caused? Yes. Am I better off now because the people in my life are the ones that fought to be there? Hell yes. So, here are the things I did when trying to put my life back in order.
- I prayed a whole heck of a lot
.
- I trusted and leaned on my family and close friends
- I drank a whole lot of coffee and Dr. Pepper.
- I ate a lot of chocolate and pizza. (it didn't look that good either)
- I cried. A lot.
- I called my mom probably nine times a day (sorry mom)
- I put myself out there and started making new friends. It scared me to death but I actually did it.
- I started actually dressing up.
- I started actually being confident in myself and who God made me to be.
- I stopped caring about the opinions of the Sheep and started caring about my opinion of myself.
