You Are More Than Your Story

You overcame…

You handled it!

You are still standing!

And now, you have a story to tell…

You have an experience that can change another’s life…

But you feel the drag of the story…

It wants to pull you back into it

And you may not even be aware that you are reacting…

Ever conscious that you never want to go back there and so, you act as though it is still happening and you are still overcoming and you try to stay safe!

And so the story becomes your whole life experience.

LET IT GO!

You overcame, honey!

You are HERE, strong, powerful, moving forward…

LET IT GO!

The story does not define you…

You are not the same person that it happened to, unless you keep holding on to it…

It is like a security blanket, right?

You think that if you stay conscious of the story, it will never happen again…

But what you do is actually orient your powerful self around the story and that weakens you…

And the triumph suddenly becomes pointless becuase you keep reliving the story.

LET IT GO!

It is done!

You are MORE than just your story!

Yes, you can tell the story to encourage others that they too can overcome but it must become alien to you!

It must become something you look back at and wonder how you ever got caught up in that…

It must become your past, not your ongoing present!

At first the answer to the question “Who would you be without the story?” will scare you…

Becuase you do not even know, right now…

This sad story is all you have ever identified with…

But actually sit with the question…

What if you no longer worried that you would give into anxiety?

What if you no longer worried that someone would take advantage of you?

What if you no longer feared that you would lose all your friends and family and be alone?

What if you no longer thought poverty was waiting to come and eat you up?

What if you never worried about going bankrupt?

What if you chose to silence that voice you hear in your head – that voice of some person in your past, speaking negativity over you?

What if all you ever dwelt on, was the promise of your big vision?

Who would you be then?

What would you do then?

What would you do next?

Honey, you are more than your sad story…

MUCH, MUCH MORE!

Release the story…

Forgive them…

Forgive you…

Be thankful for the strength that you have obtained as a result of the story…

And decide what you want…

And move towards that, free of the shackles of the past.

Fight for, deliberately design the life you are born to live

Because you want to.
