The world always changes…

Are you changing with the new times or would you like things to stay as they are forever? If you are anything like me you like to learn more and change with time. In this digital era there are so many good things to enjoy and the possibility to connect with family and friends who lives far away with chat functions like messenger or video talks like Zoom or Teams makes them feel closer than they are.  

How do you feel about new things and change? For me it depends of what it is. If it’s a new phone, computer or a car I will get excited. On the other hand, if it’s a new book about politics or something like that I can’t care less. I like to learn new things though. That usually makes me grow as a person and I hope I get more humble in the process. I have a hard time to reach out a hand when I need help and it’s the same when someone else needs help. I want to be brave enough to help people out without them asking for it and this is something I need to work with. If someone on the other hand is asking for help I will always help if I have the possibility to do so but my Crohn’s Disease can stop me sometimes.

I just have to step out of my comfort zone and learn to reach out my hand to someone who needs my help without them asking. I usually ask my self- how hard can it be and then I chicken out. It’s a bit embarrassing really. This is one thing I am learning on my trail towards a better future.

So what happens when you get stuck and confused?

Do you start over, do you reach out for help or do you give up? That is something to think about. I think I have done all those things in my life. Reaching out for help is something new for me. I used to think that I can and have to do everything on my own. If it gets to hard I just give up. This time I have asked for help when I needed it and it feels great to get the skills to build a stabile foundation. The support and the community that I can reach out to are great.

So why am I doing this? That is a great question. I have a dream even if my disease doesn’t agree with me on that when I work full time. In this dream I have more time for my family, I hope to be able to travel some more and I would like a new car. I would like to have a passive income that works for me even when I sleep. In the process to find my dream I hope to help a lot of people to find their own dream. That means that I have to reach out a hand. I guess I have to practice on that a lot more. I just have to roll up my sleeves and start working on it.

I have grown so much sense I started and I want to share this journey with you all. One of my mentors said “ask yourself the why, the how and what changes all the time”. That is something to think about and remember communication is what you hear and perceive…

Don’t forget to find your daily smile today to!

See yaaa all next time!

What are you doing on this journey you can call life

Life can be wonderful even in hard times. You have probably heard this many times – It’s not how you have it, it’s how you take it. There is some truth in that. If you tell yourself that you are never good enough, nothing in your life works for you and stuff like that you will miss all the good things that you have in life.

If you are all negative and you want to change that, try to find one thing that is good today. Even if it is you waking up this morning and that is a good start to begin with. There are people that don’t have the luxury to wake up every morning so bee grateful for the chances and possibilities this day gives you because you woke up. Then after a few days you can add one more thing and so on.

It’s easy to get in a negative mood when you have a disease like Crohn’s Disease. But se the good that comes with the sickness. You learn a lot of yourself in hard times and you are stronger than you think. Off course you will have days when you just want to give up, that is ok to. Just find your positivity the next day instead.

I will not say that it’s easy to add more positivity in your life but it’s worth the struggle. Life will get easier with a smile now and then.

Why be the victim of your disease when you can shift your mind towards success

What are you doing when your disease takes over in your life? Some days that will happen, for some it will be too often and you will start feeling sorry for yourself. I can tell you at once that feeling sorry for yourself will not help you find happiness in your life- and YES, you can be happy. It’s a choice you can make.

So, how can you shift your mind to find success in life and what is success for you. It’s different for everyone. For some success is to find that smile in the morning, for others it’s earning a lot of money, buying flashy cars and nice houses. For many people with Crohn’s Disease success is to be healthy and feeling strong for a longer period of time.

If you make choices that will benefit your life and make you find your smile more often you are moving in the right direction.

Follow my journey, goal setting and success despite my disease

A year ago I started a new journey. It’s taking more time than it would do without my disease but I am taking one step in front of the other to build me a great future. I hope that I can inspire you to see the possibilities life will bring you when you open up your mind. Life is filled with chances so why not grab them and enjoy the moment.

I have a dream and I have told you about it before. For starters, I love learning new things in my own pace. That is what I do. Off course I hope to make some money along the way and gaining a lot more freedom to spend with my family.

Do you have a dream? If not, why? What is stopping you from dreaming of a better life?

I think it’s important to dream, to set goals in your life. Even if its small goals like drink some more water every day than you are doing at this moment. I believe that dreams are making our future better, especially when you set up a plan with small goals in a timeline. Then your dream might be a reality in the future. Remember that life is a journey, not the end goal and you deserve to be happy so go out there and find your daily smile!

See yaaa next time!
