You are not obligated to stay the same

You are not chained to the person you were last year, or even 5 minutes ago

The Strong Innerstand this
Growth is not optional, it is demanded
It is your right, your responsibility

Every scar, every failure, every moment of doubt is a chapter

Not the entire story

You are allowed to outgrow old habits that no longer serve you
Toxic relationships that drain your power and outdated beliefs that limit your potential

Do not cling to the comfort of familiarity, it is a prison disguised as safety

Each day is an opportunity to rewrite your story, to crush what holds you backend to redefine what Strength looks like

Change is not your enemy, stagnation is

Tear down the walls of doubt, shatter the excuses and terminate the fear of judgement

You owe no one an explanation for your evolution
Do not fear becoming unrecognizable to others
Fear not,,, becoming unrecognizable to yourself

I have always lived by my Dad's advice that I can start over as many times as I want. Pick yourself up and start over.
