Do you ever think that focusing on your own growth makes you feel lighter or freer? According to me, this kind of thought process helps you to discover your hidden powers to reset your life in a better way. I think when you focus on changing yourself, you are entering into the space of developing your inner strength both mentally and physically. This brings awareness and adaptability which inculcates more peace and depth in your life rather than chaos in the relationships. In the beginning, when you take a few steps into this practice you will observe that you are ignoring others’ mistakes . This may create an impression about you that you are in a habit of turning a blind eye on those people. But, in no time they will realize that you are creating healthy boundaries with those persons.
As human beings we meet our own expectations and it’s not easy to change our perspective every time according to another person, but there is one technique that can be helpful during this transformative time and that is mindful journaling. Mindful journaling teaches us to gently turn inward and notice what is truly within our control. When we reflect on challenges with others, we often realize how much energy and time we are wasting in a hope that they will change, or become more understanding and supportive. But the truth is, we cannot step into another person’s mind or rewrite their choices. In mindful journaling, self-change is not about blaming yourself, but it is about reclaiming your own power. Each reflection helps you to discover that transformation begins from within, and when you shift your perspective, the energy of your relationships often shifts naturally. Trust me, this practice will give you the feeling of exhilaration. If you feel stuck in a thought as to how to start this practice, you can use the following journaling prompts:
Recall a recent moment when you wished someone else would change. How did it make you feel?
What situations are under your control?
If you shifted your own reaction, what new outcome might arise?
How does focusing on your own growth make you feel?
