How to respond
True change happens in these small moments where you pause and consciously choose a new approach.
In the moment, it might seem inconsequential, but what's happening inside of you is profound. You are slowly (but surely!) cultivating a new way of being, replacing old patterns and instincts with new ones that are more aligned with your values, hopes and self.
When you are able to choose a response over a reaction, pause and celebrate yourself. What an incredible accomplishment!
And when you can't quite find your way into your new response, remember that this is just a part of the process of growth. Treating yourself with compassion will make it far easier for you to wake up tomorrow and try again.
