Rewriting Your Story

Rewriting Your Story

We each have our own story that we tell. The story of our life, of who we are, & why we do what we do is told to others and ourselves through our words & actions.

It is our story that creates the reality of what was, is & will be.

How can we have all that power?

Most people understand the effect that we can have on what is or the “now”. By being in the present & experiencing what is happening, we take ownership of our present moments. Through selfcare tools & belief in yourself, you can take control of what happens to you & in your life.

Is it possible to have that kind of power over what will happen?

Manifesting your future has been a topic of debate, but we get to where we are in life because of what we believe. If you believe you can’t & then you don’t, you have manifested a negative outcome. When you believe in yourself & you keep pushing towards the outcome that you want, you have manifested a positive outcome.

But surely, we can’t change our past!

I used to believe this & I did nothing to change my story, so my past was as it always had been – full of hurt, trauma, & betrayal. But then I learned about the secret, affirmations, & a growth mindset.

“The Secret”

I’m not going to write a book review but this book by Rhonda Byrne changed my life. Didn’t you know that we have power over what happens? Read this book. It will explain how you have the power within you. The book will also show you how this secret has been used by powerful people throughout history.

The secret itself. The power of the law of attraction. You can change what is coming in your life by believing good things will come. You attract what you put out. This has been called pseudoscience in the past but it is the driving force behind affirmations & manifestation. We now know that we have the power to change our neuropathways which changes how we think & what we believe.

Believe in the power or don’t. If you do, get ready to change your world. If you don’t nothing will change because you are not expecting them to. Why would you work towards your goals, when you believe that nothing you do makes a difference.

I write powerful affirmations!

This means we can rewrite our beliefs. This process takes time, patience, & practice.

An affirmation is a positive statement that directs you toward what you desire in life. These statements can rewire your brain. Because of neuroplasticity our brain can change & adapt.

To learn more about affirmations, please see my FREE AFFIRMATION WORKSHOP.

But how can I make this stuff work for me?

By having a growth mindset, you can accomplish anything!

There are two trains of thought, a fixed mindset & a growth mindset.

With a fixed mindset, you believe that you are born with talent or you’ve developed it as a young child. You believe that no matter how hard that you try you can only get so far. There is a ceiling to achieving your dreams.

While with a growth mindset, you believe that you can make a difference. You can grow, change, & adapt. You can bend the future to your will by pure willpower. With practice, patience, & perseverance you can accomplish anything!

With a growth mindset you can also learn to effect your present. By being in the moment as more than an observer, you can become the master of your universe.

Most importantly you can rewrite your story with a growth mindset. By learning to look at what you learned & how you’ve changed, you can change your past.

I will go deeper into these topics with you in my Rewriting Your Story course. You can check that out January 2026!
