NO MORE “NEW YEAR. NEW ME!” WE’RE BECOMING WHO WE NEED TO BE TA-DAY!<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Hello, My Loves! 2027 is on our heels and we are officially in the midst of our Winter Arc. If you feel like the years are passing you by while you’re frozen in time, unable to make any meaningful changes in your life, I’m going to share with you step-by-step how you can go into 2027 already being exactly who you need to be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you didn’t know already, I’m about to put you up on game. You are the creator of your reality.<\/em><\/strong> (Something tells me you knew this already, though.) But, what people won’t tell you and what goes over a lot of people’s heads is that you don’t manifest what you want, you manifest who you are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing you should be focusing on during this Winter Arc to become the woman that’s actually going to transform her life in 2027 is your self-concept. <\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Before you attempt to overhaul your life, changing all your habits and routines, first you need to rewire your brain. Your mindset and your self-concept must change before any changes will actually stick. Making decisions from the version of you that desires<\/em> to become and making decisions from the version of you that already is<\/em>, is two different energies that will get two different results<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s a version of you that knows you need to change. She knows she could be doing more. She knows exactly what she needs to do, but… she won’t. She’s anxious about it. She feels guilt and shame about it. And when the feelings of guilt and shame are so overwhelming, then, she’ll make the decision- “Tomorrow, I’m going to get my life together.” And she will. She’ll be motivated for a few days, maybe even a few weeks, but eventually, she’ll meet resistance- whether that’s internally or externally, and she’ll end up right back at her baseline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The version of you that already is<\/em><\/strong>, makes the decision to show up for whatever the thing is because… well, that’s just who she is. She is a woman who prioritizes her health. She is a woman who is financially responsible. She is a woman who prioritizes her beauty. She doesn’t have to negotiate with herself whenever she meets resistance, whenever she doesn’t “feel like it”. She doesn’t debate with herself whether or not to exercise and stack her money, just like she doesn’t debate about brushing her teeth and washing her ass. Whether she “feels” like it or not, it’s a part of what she does, because that’s who she is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SO HOW DO I CHANGE MY SELF-CONCEPT, LAMOUR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
YOU ASK GREAT QUESTIONS!<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n

It’s rather simple, but<\/strong> it’s going to take mindfulness and intentionality. That’s the hard part. Let’s get into it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Decide who you want to be. <\/strong>Make a decision about the version of yourself you want to embody. Start with one thing for 21 days and then compound. This is important. If you change too much too fast you will end up right back where you started. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Create an identity statement.<\/strong> E.g.: I am a woman who prioritizes her health. I am a woman who works out at least 3 times per week. I am a woman who eats clean and meal preps. Etc…<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Challenge your negative thoughts and feelings.<\/strong> Whenever the negative thoughts and feelings come up (and they will)<\/strong> challenge them with your identity statements and take action from that space. This is where most people lose the plot because they allow their feelings and the past version of themselves to take over. You must be aware of your thoughts and feelings<\/em>. If you can get past this, you’re on your way. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Embody.<\/strong> Show up as the version of yourself that you’ve decided to embody. Show up and give whatever capacity you have- If you have 100%, do 100. If you only have 10%, do 10. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Visualize.<\/strong> Take time to visualize being the version of yourself you’ve decided to be. All you need is 5 minutes a day for this. Imagination is memory. When you visualize taking that walk, doing an exercise you enjoy, and eating healthy you are creating new neural pathways in your brain making the decision to do it easier and easier overtime. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. BONUS.<\/strong> If you fall off because you are a human being and you are not perfect, DO NOT<\/strong> guilt and shame yourself back into action. Guilt and shame are a slippery slope to getting back into a rut. “I didn’t show up yesterday, I’m absolutely showing up today.” “I may have missed one day, but I definitely won’t miss two.” Simply, get back on.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    It takes 21 days to create a new habit, to embody a new way of being. You can absolutely have 2-3 ways of being embodied before the new year even starts. The days will pass anyway. Love yourself enough to not remain the same. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    IF THERE’S ONE THING FOR YOU TO REMEMBER<\/strong>:<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    You become what you are not who you want to be. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
