No one wants to give up what they have fought for for years. No one wants to leave the person with whom they have imagined a future.
No one wants to accept defeat so easily.
However, life presents us with obstacles that we must face.
These obstacles are not to hurt us, but to help us grow.
Each obstacle is a sign that we must recognize, listen to and experience in order to move forward on our paths.
They are signs that we need to learn to live authentically.
If you find yourself experiencing any of these signs, it is time to stop, observe and reevaluate your current situation.
It may be time to start over.
Do you remember the last time you were truly happy? Have you fallen into a boring routine that prevents you from finding true happiness? Does this routine make you happy or are you just trying to get through the day to day? Are you doing everything you can to survive another day at work or a date, while your inner mind screams that something is wrong?
You are worthy of happiness.
If where you are is no longer bringing you happiness, it's okay to walk away.
It is valid to admit when something or someone is not working.
It's important to put yourself first.
When you look at photos of yourself, can you see the flame that shines in your eyes? Do you feel your soul light up every time you start a new project or accomplish something important? Passion is the engine we need to move forward in our lives.
Without it, we run the risk of losing ourselves.
The things we always wanted to do lose importance, because we no longer remember why they were so meaningful to us.
That fire that once burned brightly is now just a flicker, and no matter how hard we try to rekindle it, we will never reach the same intensity.
That moment of epiphany, where we thought we finally achieved everything we wanted, now seems like a distant dream.
Maybe you got the job or the person you always longed for, but today they no longer mean the same to you.
Maybe their role has been to guide you to something or someone else. Maybe it's time to say goodbye and move on in search of your lost spark.
Don't give in to the shadows, fight to regain the passion that motivates you to shine brightly, without fear of looking back at the darkness of the past.
At times when we find ourselves in an extreme situation, it is important to pay attention to ourselves.
Possibly, that feeling of discomfort or down feeling that arises when someone calls us on the phone is not something casual.
It is likely that, if you keep coming back and leaving that person again and again, there is something deep down in your heart that is not at peace.
Likewise, if despite your best efforts, you are unable to feel comfortable in your job, you may need to analyze the reasons why you feel this way.
Don't dwell on the idea that you won't fall in love again or that you won't get a better job.
You still have a way to go.
Sometimes, life brings us to a point where we feel that nothing is right.
We may find it hard to believe that we are going to make it through that stage, that everyone criticizes or judges us, and that disillusionment keeps us from moving on.
However, if you allow yourself to let go of everything that takes your breath away, if you stop holding on to the pain and negativity, you can finally breathe.
Making a change can be scary, but much scarier is staying in a situation where you are not valued or comfortable.
Don't give in to the fear that nothing can replace what you had before.
Change is the option to regain your sense of freedom.
You don't deserve to continue tolerating a toxic relationship or a job you're not passionate about.
There is nothing wrong with choosing to move forward, take control of your life and persevere in your decisions.
Nor should you feel shame for valuing yourself and seeking what you deserve.
You didn't need that relationship or that job to be happy and feel complete in life.
Always remember that you are enough, and you must learn to believe it.
It is common to feel tired in our lives, long nights and stress are situations that occur often, but what should not be normal is a constant feeling of deep mental and emotional exhaustion.
We can all experience that feeling, it's understandable that at some point we may feel discouraged and drained.
Maybe you've found yourself crying in the bathroom at work or in your office, wishing it would all go away.
Maybe you worked for weeks to achieve something and in the end it wasn't recognized, or you have to wait for your family to go to sleep to release your tears.
The truth is that this exhaustion is much deeper than you realize.
You're not getting enough sleep, your mind can't focus all day, and you feel on edge.
Conference calls or a silent dinner are situations you find unbearable.
If this mental and emotional exhaustion has become constant, it's time to rethink your current situation in life.
It is important that you take the time to think about all the things that make you feel this way.
This type of burnout is no way to live life, and you deserve better.
When we invest too much time and energy into maintaining our "happy" facades, we rarely have anything left to give ourselves.
We've exhausted ourselves trying to achieve something that doesn't necessarily give us the same back.
That's not a healthy relationship.
You shouldn't have to give your all to make something work.
If you have given up every part of yourself, you may feel that there is nothing left to live for.
However, don't be discouraged. Don't be afraid to start over.
Sometimes, self-defense is necessary in difficult situations.
Seeking help is not a weakness, but an opportunity to grow and improve.
The world needs you to be happy and you deserve to live the life you've always wanted.
Don't settle for less. You are so much more than you imagine.
If something or someone doesn't work out, don't feel ashamed to admit it and start over.
It is in your power to try again and again.
Life is not a straight line and not all the answers are in front of our eyes.
Even if life is not easy, there is always something to learn and an opportunity to grow.
Don't ignore the signs of life.
Each one of them is there for a reason, and so are you. There is no rule that says you can only have one dream in life.
Can you imagine what it would be like if we didn't have the freedom to change our minds?
