In today’s world of constant noise it is essential to prioritize yourself and genuinely value your own time. I feel we are all being bombarded by marketing and constant pressure to compare ourselves to people online who are more “successful” than us without ever pausing to have gratitude for our own achievements. I find that without consciously choosing to remove myself from social media, from my phone and actually making it difficult for others to have constant access to me, I become susceptible to automatic thoughts. In today’s episode I share how you can make small changes in your habits and perception so you can stop feeling pressure to compare yourself and step into a new mindset of gratitude, hope and abundance.
