When I was growing up my father left at 10 years old.
To this day I can say that my biggest struggle is commitment to a relationship and trust.
I guess you could say these go hand and hand.
Now as I’ve grown a bit older I am learning how to cope with commitment and trust.
For example, I have been spending more time at work looking to see what can be fixed, instead of waiting for someone to tell me.
I make a commitment to the gym I use because I want to stay healthy.
Over the years I can tell most people’s trust and commitment issues start the same way.
When we were younger, someone or something happened and we never truly found a way to get past it.
Whatever the situation might have been.
I am still working on getting over things in the past, easier said than done.
What we do not want is for you to bury that negative emotion and let it fester.
It will eat and eat at you until you address the real problem deep down.
We have to really understand we are human, we lie sometimes (not condoning it.)
People get hurt and upset and lose faith.
I’m guilty of being the same way, I lose faith in people too fast in my opinion.
That is something I am working at every day and getting better with.
That person 2 years ago that lied to you or said she/he would do this or that for you is not every person you’re going to meet.
In fact over the course of your life you will be making so many connections with people, whether it be friends, business, or a romantic relationship.
Life is too short to hold grudges and not believe in people.
I learned to look for the best in people instead of originally looking for the worst parts of their personality.
It’s a great way to build a new part of yourself that is sure to only benefit you in life.
I understand some people like myself have a lot of anxiety which can really affect your ability to put your trust in someone.
We assume the worst possible outcome if something goes wrong, hence trust issues or commitment.
As people looking to grow, as hard as it can be, we are strong willed. Don’t let the outside noise take away from what you bring to the table.
A great way to start your morning on the right side of the bed is, make your bed immediately.
It’s a simple, easy way of making a commitment, you’re committed to making your bed. It sounds funny.
Trust me, this will help you alot going into the day.
You build yourself a routine morning schedule and you’re off to the races.
By the time you leave for work or wherever you go, you’re bringing positive energy with you.
People will notice a nice shit in your energy or charisma.
All by making the small steps first!
