Failure is an Event, NOT a Person!
Failure is an Event,
NOT a Person!
Have you notices that humans attach labels to others and to ourselves?
Labels like,
Failure
Perfectionist
People-Pleaser
Procrastinator
I have always wondered why we do this. It certainly isn't helpful. It actually leads to more of the same behavior.
Our behavior is an echo of our beliefs about ourselves.
In my training and education as a life coach, I have learned that it is a primitive brain response to look out of the "bad". Our habit brain wants to take less energy and labeling takes less energy than awareness and mindfulness. Resigning to a label is the easiest route.
As a beloved child of God, I also know that that is the route our Enemy would like us to take. That labeling will keep us down. Condemnation leads to and results in this kind of labeling. It's a downward spiral that keeps us stuck.
Can you relate?
Are you feeling stuck in this downward spin cycle?
Is this affecting your eating habits?
Do you feel like a failure?
I'm here to help.
When you notice yourself labeling with a negative, pause! Notice that this is the habitual thoughts you have been practicing for years. Also, notice that continuing in these thought patterns will not give you new results.
There is a better way.
Be willing to make the effort of noticing. Be willing to admit this isn't helping. Be willing to decide to "fast" from those thought patterns. Be willing to choose thoughts that serve you. Be willing to be Spirit led. Correction leads to growth, progress and living in your true identity.
It takes practice. It's like when a child is first learning their colors. We would never think of condemning them if they don't remember which is green or red.
The same goes for you in your transformation with fueling your body. If you eat off your plan, notice your thinking. This is an opportunity for course correction, but only if we cease from condemnation.
Remind yourself of who you are. You are a new creation.
"Instead of shame and dishonor, you will enjoy a double share of honor. You will possess a double portion of prosperity in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours." - Is 61:7
