Introduction
One thing I know for sure is we all have burdens of some kind. Some of these burdens are mental and some are physical. Some have been fashioned by ourselves and others are the result of outside forces. We all carry the burdens in different ways. The way we react to our challenges in life will determine whether we continue to struggle or whether we live life to the fullest.
I would like to suggest some ideas about how to react to what you struggle with in life and how that can make all the difference for you. When we are faced with roadblocks in life we always have choices. We can let them paralyze us and not move forward, we can bust through them leaving havoc in our wake, or we can find a way around them continuing down our path.
This book gives you quick, easy to read advice on how to handle many of life’s struggles. It is a book you can keep picking up when you need a lift. It will be like the voice of a friend telling you what you can do to make the situation better. I think the words will also help you on the days when the burden feels too heavy, and you need some words to soothe your mind.
I hope my words will help you because they are given with love. Pass the words on to others who need them and let’s help each other to carry any burdens, to see the many blessings, and to lead the lives we deserve.
101 Tips to Lighten Your Burden
1. You Are Wonderfully Made.You may feel you don’t fit in or you are not understood, but everyone has both faults and special qualities. You have unique elements that make you special, and you will find people who appreciate who you are, so do not try to be anything other than your true self. Your real friends are those who love you exactly as you are. Focus on those strengths that make you shine and improve on areas where you know you could be better. Find a mantra that states your value and say it over and over to yourself. Simple ones could be “I am worthy, I am strong, I am enough.”
2. Believe You Can. Many of us suffer from insecurities, and we would rather avoid trying something new and failing at it than being stagnant with what is comfortable. We cannot grow until we step out of our comfort zone, but often that first step is terrifying. Positive thinking can send out strong energy and when you use positive words of affirmation, it is amazing to see the results. After you prove once or twice that you are capable of difficult tasks, you will gain confidence and continue to be stronger.
3. Do Not Compare Yourself To Others.We often see someone who we think has everything one could want in life, but underneath that mask of perfection are some elements that might not be very pretty. As you start to become acquainted with someone you perceive to be perfect, those elements usually rise to the surface. Be grateful for your blessings and realize that imperfection is more interesting and involves inspirational stories.
4. Do Not Allow Anyone to Limit You.If someone tells you that you cannot be who you want to be, or that a passion or dream is unrealistic, create a plan to prove them wrong. Even friends and family members can be negative about our aspirations, and often it is because they are worried about us being hurt. Find people who will be your cheerleaders and continue following what makes you happy. When I was forty-two, I had an overwhelming desire to have a third child. When I voiced this thought, reactions were always negative and included comments about my age at the time, how old I would be when my child graduated high school, and the potential for health problems because I was an older mother. I ignored the comments and had my daughter Kaitlyn who is the light of my life. I would have missed out on so much if I had listened to others.
5. Filter the Harmful Speech of Those People Who Have No Filter.
