The Gift of Transformation

It is a privilege to be able to call your suffering a blessing

Life has been a bit rough

I am trying I am fighting

And I am struggling

If it is safe to be honest

I am just scared to be honest

I have talked about what it means to stand alone

I have talked about what it means to live in a blessed state

But what do you do if those do not hold up

If you fight and try and grasp for something and you come up with nothing

if you ever notice the inspiration that inspirational people share with others is the inspiration they need for themselves

So I am going to tell you the gift of transformation

It is not pretty

You do not transform when you are at the top of a mountain

And people want the mountain top transformation without climbing the mountain

Let me tell you the way to transformation

You do not have to do a treturous climb

Do steep scaling of boulders

Or interval train and push your big butt up the impossible hill.

Transformation simply comes by making a promise

It is simple

It is a choice to say I am going to be better than I was before with consistency

Did you hear that word consistency?

To drop weight do not cut all the crazy foods out of your diet and go exercise like crazy

Start by drinking 1 bottle of extra water a day for one week

To get fit do not go work out at the gym for 2 hours

Just do a light run on the tread mill for 20 minutes to keep your heart rate up

To become emotionally healthy write a journal entry once a day for a week

Do this consistency

Consistency is the way but it is not the key

The key is the promise

Through consistent action you are actually keeping a promise to yourself

The key to the gift of transformation is your promise

So when you fall back you can pick yourself back up

When times are rough you have a foundation

When you can not take it to the next level you have the proof

Your value, your worth, your dignity is not based on your accomplishments but is allowing your integrity to come to life

the ability to be honest when you are most scared to be honest

This is when transformation will come

This is when the top of the mountain will appear beneath your feet

And you have found the light

The thing you have always wanted

The thing that will allow you to take the next step towards the next transformation

This is the gift of transformation

Always drawing you forward towards something more.
