It’s Never Too Late to Rewrite Your Own Life Story
Demand a new script and go in a different direction
Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen. — Goethe
I like to read my horoscope in the daily paper every day. I’m a Taurus and we like to honor small morning rituals like this :)
I keep hoping it will be something amazing!
Most of the time it’s something ridiculous like an “admirer” is waiting in the wings for you to notice them.
But today mine was different.
It said: “Not only do you get to write your own story but you get to do the rewrites too!”
It reminded me I AM the author of my own life story and I CAN rewrite it anytime I want.
Sometimes a truth bomb hits you right when you need it!
It’s so easy to forget this life lesson when you get caught up in all the drama of daily living and a world where there is a major crisis raging every other day.
No matter what’s going on in the world, everyone has the chance to rewrite their own life story and take it in a new direction.
You can think of it as a new season or a revival or a remake. Whatever you want.
If you’re not happy with the direction of your life, do a star turn and demand a new script!
Key Message: You are the writer, cast director, and producer of your own life. You have the power to make the change. Just start writing.
