Trains, Toxic Relationships and Just YOU…
We often tell people to stop doing what you are not passionate, crazy or feel lukewarm and get rid of relationships that are toxic. We must not only give advice but apply to ourselves.
We must learn to stop being toxic to ourselves. We must love ourselves first and then surround ourselves with people that serve our purpose.
Learn to say NO to fake friends who only use you for their gain, business partners who only see $$$ on their bank accounts and who do not give squat about serving you. IF we focus on loving, caring, serving in business truthfully with right motives, imagine what can happen…
Today I had great chat with my good friend Barbi, a mom of 3 boys who is also homeschooling her kids. Honestly I admire this woman. She knows where she stands. She lives with passion and she surrounds herself with the best people. I know it took time to see it and take “what it means to be yourself” inventory and I am so glad she did.
I think we all should choose the right track in life. Growing up in Russia I used to travel by train a lot and who lived in Russia can tell we love train! IT is fun. Great nature scenes and fun times with new friends we meet and great chats and late night coffee or tea. But the point is this. When we used to get on the train station we had ticket in our hand and we knew what track to go, what train car to get in and what compartment to get sitted in. We had it planned out . We also knew where we would be traveling to. We knew exact destination. We knew how long it would take to get there and if we wanted express train, VIP class we had to pay extra.
That is why I wanted to bring two points in this post: In order to become successful no matter : life, business, job, you must have two things in place: clarity, knowing which track to get on, passion-love for what you do and stick to it. Sometimes you must clean that path and get rid of situations, people, events in life that do not serve your higher purpose. You must truly ask yourself,”Girl what do you want”?, What do you truly believe in? Do you believe what others say al the time? Do you have your own head on your shoulders?
Ask yourself “Are people around me toxic”? “Is my thinking toxic”? What can you do to make your life delicious and joyful? I met many wonderful people in life only after I got rid of relationships that were harmful and doors to new amazing people opened up. I met people who literally helped me to see myself in a different light and see my true passion that was clouded and not clear! I am so grateful for that.
My husband who used to be very shy and introvert by nature became the best supporter and amazing philosopher and passionate about mindset education because we all had to learn to let go.
When you decide to let go of toxic relationship with yourself and others just make commitment and make a decision. It is the process and you just need to learn to let go. Learn to do it every day little by little.
If you want to learn how to get clear you must know one thing, “Do you build your life, your business around your values or do you allow other people values to interfere what it is important in your life?”
If you asked me few years about what personal development was I would look at you with big eyes and say WHAT? Why do I need that? My good friend Kimberly introduced me gently and I am very grateful for opening my mind and my heart to it!
Again I want to wish you all the best 2010! Live with passion and honest with yourself!
