The moment I decided to give up feeling “Fugly”

Here we are, 20 something plus years later and I still have moments of feeling

“Fugly”.

So what happened?

Some would think that just because I am a subconscious mind expert and Master Mindset Success Coach that these earthly self confidence issues would be non-existent for me. That's not the case! I am human and just like many women I too have uncomfortable days.

I was extremely emotional from my brother passing recently and I was feeling broken...

That energy of feeling broken started to get the best of me. It started to influence me to believe that I wasn't good enough and my mind began to produce the thoughts of memories where I felt I wasn't good enough...my mind began to find any supporting detail just to prove that I was worthless.

And then..I felt Ugly

This feeling of ugliness surged my entire being sending signals to my brain that created negative thoughts. And then my mind began to reel back all of those irritating memories in high school where my self confidence was shot!!..Just to prove that I was ugly

But hold up

Because right now is the most important moment in my life. I can either allow my thoughts to control me or I can control my thoughts. I can either allow my feelings to control me or I can control my feelings. I had to make a choice because life is too precious to waste moments on emotions of the past and thoughts that aren't true!

So I asked myself

What purpose does feeling Fugly serve me?
Answer: "None"

There was simply nothing that I could benefit from so why waste my moment? Life is filled with many moments and depending on what we do with them will determine if we are living a fulfilling life.

How I gave up feeling Fugly...

1. had to remind myself that my own thoughts were getting the best of me! I realized that those thoughts and emotions served me no purpose at all and on top of that I know they aren't true.

2. I moved into observer mode where I mindfully observed the negative thoughts without judgement by not attaching an emotional feeling to them. (Ex. Thinking I am ugly and the FEELING sad about it. When you are feeling the emotion you are powering the thought!) This is a practice, but its a beautiful way to become detached from something that is not beneficial for your well being. It also gave me the power to shift my focus and energy to the Now.

3. I recognized my power that I had in this moment. The power to create thoughts and feelings that were worth my time and energy. And so, I chose to create thoughts and emotions that best supported who I am today. I looked in the mirror and chose to see beautiful and thus, I felt beautiful.

4. I journaled my emotions. This blog is created in the very moments where I decided to give up feeling fugly. Journaling my thoughts and being honest with myself allowed me to shift my energy into what I wanted: Feeling beautiful. For me, today feeling beautiful is about feeling worthy of all possible things. It's about feeling whole and connected to my Divine Goddess energy. It's about knowing that I am not broken but that I am fixed with all the right equipment that the Divine has chosen for me. It's about knowing that I am self confident in who I am and the things I am passionate about. It's about trusting myself and my intuition. Its about giving up what no longer serves me in order to feel abundant.

It's about loving myself even when the day feels uncomfortable.

The thing is that, I do the work. When I am feeling out of my element I will practice what I preach. Shifting your mindset and emotions to what supports you is a challenge, but it is also your super power. You have the power to create the life you want just by making sure your thoughts and emotions are in alignment with your highest good.
Life is filled with choices
Each day we can either choose to be in a rut or not.
We can choose to let our mind control us, or take control over our mind.
We can choose to give up anything the things that waste our moment.
