Lucky Girl Growth Journal

"All good things come to me

Flow to me

Move through me

Everything works out for me"

Trust me, I know it's hard to believe this sometimes. It's difficult to wrap your mind around how you could possibly be lucky in any way. But you know what, I'm also tired of my own negative thoughts. I've been walking the path of negativity and self-destruction like it's my mission. I heard someone say that for every negative thought, you have to counteract it with 5-6 positive ones. Now at this point, it's starting to sound like I have two jobs instead of one at this stage. Habits transform into patterns, patterns evolve into a lifestyle, and that lifestyle binds itself to a path of stagnation and limited personal growth. I don't know about you, but I'm looking around, and I got to get out of here. Something has to change for the sake of my mental foundation.

Now once upon a time I was zombie strolling on Amazon, listening to a podcast about "Lucky Girl Syndrome", and by impulse purchased 3 books on the subject. Various authors, all different perspectives and careers, but they all mutually had this entanglement with a almost cult like brain training that led them to magically believe in themselves I guess, to the point of extreme success. Being a top tier optimist, I combed through the books for some type of "catch", or magicians secret. At that point all it sounded like to me was a few rich people, reselling me nuggets of info, making them richer. (and yes, I was hating) One thing about me, though, I am also logical, and there is obviously some CODE I must break in order to enter in the realm and world they have created for themselves. Typical me, I wanted the answers, yesterday.

That's the crux of it. I attempted to discover a new mindset using my existing one. I approached things from a procrastinator's perspective. I was aware of the necessary actions but lacked sufficient motivation. I hesitated due to fear of change and self-exploration. In theory, it may seem foolish. Yet, the unfamiliarity of the outcome made my brain resist following the straightforward path to self-improvement. I made struggling so familiar to my brain, it's all that it sought. Now who wants a brain like this? Blink once and I'll throw it away!

Ok let's fast forward to present-day reasoning. IQ hasn't moved an inch, so we're still working with the same cells here, but now we have a solution, challenging our negative bias. This also has a lot to do with the level of confidence you have in yourself. I feel as far as surface-level confidence, I'm with you, but being an overthinker as I am can really blur the lines of trust in my own decisions. Who needs enemies, right? The gang's all here.

I'm starting to beg the question "Well what if it all works out?" I want to start moving as if I already have what I want. This mindset shift is powerful and transformative. By envisioning success and acting as though it has already been achieved, I can attract positive outcomes into my life. It's about embracing a sense of abundance and possibility, rather than dwelling on doubt or fear. When we align our thoughts and actions with our desired outcomes, we create a powerful momentum that propels us towards success. This proactive approach not only boosts our confidence but also opens up new opportunities and pathways towards our goals. So, instead of waiting for things to fall into place, I need to take the reins and start living as though our dreams are already a reality.

I also love the thought of romantizing my life and taking care of myself to the fullness of its extent. A physical transformation is in order as well as a mental one. When you look good you feel good. This is not just a cliche phrase. I want to live life the lifestyle I wish to possess. I always complain about not having enough positive friends, but I need to put myself in rooms where I can attract affluent people, successful individuals, it breeds better opportunity. It is about proactively creating a supportive network that aligns with one's aspirations and values.

Being the luckiest of them all, is realizing it fast enough to experience the blessings.
