“You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!”
― Hideaki Sorachi

I view life as a journey, A journey with so many stops. However, a lot of times we are so focused on the destination and do not stop to smell the roses, we do not stop to enjoy the process, forgetting that the process of becoming is indeed the journey and not the destination.

The destination is to be just proof of who we have become to be the person we see at the destination. The process of becoming is tough, the process of becoming stretches, the process of becoming requires evolution, the process of becoming requires a metamorphosis.

This becoming will occur in the mind, the becoming will occur in the soul, this becoming will also occur in the body. In becoming, planning is necceary, this plan needs to include planning for the mind, planning for the soul and planning for the body, all three are necessary to BE and to become the person at the end of the journey.

Becoming does not happen by chance, becoming is intentional, becoming is planning, it has accountability partners, it has financial cost and s many associated cost

Becoming is costly but the other option is costlier.

“We must become the person who is ready to accept the thing/s that we want. Sometimes, what you want is already waiting for you, alongside the person that you are capable of becoming. Alongside the destined you. So in between here and there, you have that journey, that process, of becoming that person. Wiser, stronger, gentler. We think that to attain what we want, means simply to achieve what we wish to attain. But if we could only see ourselves– our destined selves– already there in the future, standing hand-in-hand with our desires, we would always know that our worthy desires are objects that call us unto a higher calling, a higher state of existence.”
― C. JoyBell C.

The journey to becoming must constantly be ready to unlearn and relearn, one must shed all previous biases and think differently

The journey to becoming has been an interesting one, the evolution has started, the shedding of excess weight, it has been a great journey to becoming and looking forward .

I have embraced the  journey, really excited at the evolution occurring.

I am excited about being

I am excited about becoming

BE!!

“You can’t live a ‘lifetime’ without learning a lot of ‘Good Life Lessons.’ One thing about it—–YOU BECOME A BETTER PERSON, ONCE YOU HAVE COME OUT ON THE OTHER SIDE.”
