Dr. Joe Dispenza says, “To create a new life, you have to leave part of yourself behind.” At first glance, this might sound daunting. After all, we’ve spent years developing our habits, routines, and ways of thinking. But what if these very patterns are the invisible chains holding us back from the future we desire?
Each new day is a fresh start - a new lifetime. It’s a chance to create your future with intention and attention but to truly embrace this opportunity, you must understand the power of choice and self-awareness.
The truth is, on some days, you might find yourself in a routine, operating on autopilot. These are the comfort-zone days, where familiar habits and thoughts guide your actions. They’re not necessarily "bad" days— maybe you’re simply coasting, resting, or staying in your comfort zone. However, these days may not bring the progress you were hoping for. They’re the days when habitual programs—the stories you’ve told yourself over and over—take the wheel.
Then, there are the breakthrough days. These are the moments when you rise to challenges, embrace the unknown, and align your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with your intentions. On these days, you’re creating your future with purpose. Your actions match your aspirations, and you feel a sense of progress and possibility.
Why It’s Okay to Have "Off" Days
Now, it’s important to remember that growth isn’t linear. Some days will feel like setbacks, but they’re not failures. They’re opportunities for reflection and recalibration. Be kind to yourself on these days. Instead of judging your progress, evaluate it with curiosity. Ask yourself:
-
What thoughts dominated my mind today?
-
How did my emotions shape my actions?
-
What small shifts can I make tomorrow to align better with my goals?
Self-compassion is a critical part of transformation. You’re not defined by your habitual programs or by how "productive" you are on any given day. Growth comes from consistency, not perfection.
The Power of Choosing Differently
Your habitual programs—those repetitive thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—are not who you are. They’re learned patterns that can be unlearned. Each moment presents an opportunity to make a new choice, to act from a place of intention rather than habit. This might mean:
-
Choosing gratitude over frustration.
-
Embracing curiosity over fear.
-
Taking a step into the unknown rather than retreating to the familiar.
These choices, small as they may seem, are the building blocks of a new you. They’re the quiet yet powerful decisions that shape your future.
Remember… Creating a new life requires a mindset rooted in love and continuous improvement. This doesn’t mean constantly striving or pushing yourself to exhaustion. Instead, it’s about:
-
Celebrating your victories, no matter how small.
-
Learning from challenges without self-criticism.
-
Staying committed to your vision, even when the journey feels slow.
Dr. Dispenza reminds us that each day is a new opportunity to create. Some days will feel triumphant, while others may feel stagnant. Both are part of the process. The key is to remain aware, compassionate, and intentional.
And last but not least… Keep Going
Transformation isn’t a one-time event; it’s a daily commitment. Whether today was a routine day or a breakthrough day, trust that you’re on the right path. Evaluate your progress, celebrate your wins, and keep making those small, intentional choices.
You’re not your past habits or your old stories. With each new day, you have the power to leave a piece of the old you behind and step into the future you’re creating. To help you create your ideal future starting now, I have 6 pre-made Mind Movies ready for you to unwrap!
