Amen and hallelujah!  Can I get this tatooed on my forehead!  I need this to be printed out and stuck on every wall in my house!  

TeresahRN says ...

I PROMISE YOU, YOU WILL REMEMBER YOUR BRILLIANCE

Every lesson I teach... I taught myself.

Every pain point I discuss... I experienced myself.

Every fall I bring up, I faced.

And every agony, anxiety and turmoil you have felt, I have too.

And then I realized experiencing all of the above for a long time, does not serve me, does not help me evolve and most importantly time will not heal me.

Time will not make me happy.

Time will not bring back my smile.

I will. I can. I am.

And so are you.

You have such power within you, that is breathtaking.

Your brain can give you miracles, love, money, success and everything you can imagine. And no.... it cannot bring people back, it cannot make people love us more or turn back the clock in any way form or shape.

But it can change you.

It can alter your thoughts.

It can help you shift from black to white. It can allow you to become the person you would like to be.

I have said this before, but I will say it again. I don't care how old you are. To me you are a life starter who is capable of experiencing second firsts that would blow your mind.

There is so much research out there that points to one thing. Even in old age we can change ourselves.

There is scientific credibility towards positive thinking. But I will not list it all here, and quote a million authors and scientists. Instead I want to help you believe that you have the controls within you in a spiritual and a very practical way also.

You are indeed 'the captain of your soul.'

You are the driver.

You are the creator of your life.

Especially your life after loss and sorrow.

As your emotional DNA shifts into an abyss of sadness it is very capable of shifting into the abyss of love and abundance.

How?

There is one simple way to do this. But it would require for you to dismiss your doubts and your low self worth. It would also require you to walk over to the mirror and start telling your self nice sweet things, beginning with...

I LOVE YOU.

I TRUST YOU.

I KNOW THE WAY.

You have always been the one with the tools, the advice, the answers and the controls.

You have always had the freedom to laugh out loud and use your body to jump up with joy when the simplest acts of happiness take place every day in your life.

You did this as a kid. You were born with enthusiasm.

It is fascinating to me how we can rationally convince ourselves that we are incapable of the one thing we were born to do... CHANGE.

The really incredible thing is that change can be ignited with one small step.

Believe that you are not perfect, but find the fine balance between discovering your worth and letting go of the beliefs that hold you back.

I am not asking you to drive your life with the ego who prevents you from seeing your limitations. All I am asking is for the one skill that I know you have which is, to see your brilliance while at the same time you see your imperfections and know where your sweet spot is.

But here is the secret that you have been keeping from yourself.

The bigger the challenges you have had the bigger chance you have to transform yourself.

The longer your pain has lasted the more determined you are to walk out of it.

The toughest the loss, the stronger you are.

The biggest the failure the larger the success you can have.

And the more abandoned you have felt the more love you can receive.

If I had not experienced deep, deep sorrow and crazy, crazy pain I could never ever have believed that I am capable of the life that I have with me today.

This letter is a reminder to the self that has gone to sleep, that it is time to wake up and start using the tools that you were born with.

Shake, shake and shake the pessimist, the victim, and the looser in you.

This is not your natural state of being. This is not you.

Just go find that mirror I mentioned, and talk to yourself about who you are.
