Take a moment to breathe.
Close your eyes and inhale deeply.
Let the scents of life permeate your brain,
and then move forward.
Stop building walls that impede you from progress.
Stop creating lingering shadows
by standing in your own sunlight.
Get out of your own way.
Life wants to you win.
Only you can choose how you play the game.
Ignore the things that threaten to hold you,
to keep you from where you want to go.
Don’t be the one thing
that keeps you from your dreams,
that keeps you from living
the life that is meant to be yours.

I’m my own biggest obstacle, that I know! This was very inspiring, thank you!
Thank you for the comment. Get out of your own way. xx
I found this very therapeutic and supportive. It clicked at a time where I was feeling “unclicked”. Thank you.
That makes me happy to read. 🙂
“Stop creating lingering shadows by standing in your own sunlight.”—Susan, this whole thing is so uplifting, but this line in particular is just incredibly poignant. It’s time to let that sun light shine 🙂 Thanks for the reminder!!
Thanks so much for the comment. We really are our own worst enemies at times.
We sure can be the biggest obstacle to where we want to be.
I may rename myself “hurdle” 🙂
Wonderful! I have been embracing being more mindful and this fits right in. 🙂
Thanks….I’m glad you are putting yourself first.
