Monday Mantra: Embrace The Change

Monday, September 8, 2014 /

Rewind my life two years ago, I was a high school senior with the dreams of becoming a college soccer player. During this phase of my life I could never see myself losing passion for soccer and my ultimate goal of becoming a kindergarten teacher. Fast forward to my present day situation, I am currently enrolled in the textiles and merchandising program at the University of Wyoming, have a relationship with my love for blogging, anything and everything, and usually choose to buy clothes over food. In just two short years my whole entire way I wanted to live my life changed. Realizing that my passion in life changed from wanting to become a college athlete to becoming a creative soul with the biggest desire in the world to become part of the fashion industry. Thinking back now about how different I have become is absolutely crazy. Everyone in some point in their life has been faced with that fork in the road that makes them choose between staying the same or changing to grow into the person you want to become. I am sure after hearing about the path that I choose to journey along you can relate. Chances are if you looked back three, two, or even just a year ago you would not be the same person that you are today.  Maybe you changed your address, favorite Starbuck’s drink, or your ultimate goal in life, whatever it was it has shaped you into a different person. Now don’t get me wrong change can be a difficult thing at first but if you think about your future and what is best for you it might not be such a bad thing.  Adjusting is the hardest part but when you think ahead to what you want to do with your future change is necessary. It is an ingredient needed to reach your dreams. Without change you wouldn’t become the person who you want to become. Whether it’s starting college, a new job, or a relationship you should greet change with a smile and in return you might gain something in your life you cannot believe you were living without before. So this week I want you to embrace the change in your life whether it’s getting a new roommate or chopping off your beloved locks of hair. Change is an apart of life and who wants to be the same braced-faced person you were in high school?


Let’s all fight the Monday blues together and embrace all the change that is to come!

XO,
Alex
