Stop Sleeping with a Stranger

Eight ways to find YOU again.

Are YOU sleeping with a stranger? You once had dreams of your own, but you just muddle through life like a broken record.

Sound familiar?

It is time to wake up, kick the stranger out of bed, and know YOU again. Let's find YOU again.

What do you really want?

Ask yourself what you want. Then ask yourself again what you really want, and you have to ask yourself the 3rd time what you want. Sometimes we have to ask ourselves multiple times what we want to cut through the layers of years of being programmed and told what we should want, who we should be, and who we have been.

What are your strengths?

For once, let's celebrate you. Name your strengths. Own it. You have them. It can be the smallest of things.

What are your goals?

Make a list of goals and make a vision board. Look at it every single day. Do you want to read one book a month, take walks, lose weight, or start a business? Do you want to finish that degree? We all have limiting beliefs that tell us why we can't or shouldn't do something for ourselves. Dream big sister. The YOU I know can do it.

Alone time- date yourself

Get a bottle of wine and get a nice hotel room. Take a book and have room service. If you really want to splurge, get a massage and just relax. Sometimes being alone with ourselves can be the hardest thing, especially in silence. How long can you sit there without thinking of something you need to do for someone else, make a to-do list or get up to do something? Are you uncomfortable with yourself? It gets better. You just have to practice.

What do YOU like?

Can you even list things you like to do, places you like to go, or things YOU like to eat? Make a list? You may have forgotten some of the things or you may say I used to like those things. Only to remember you don't like them because no one else did.

What do you not like?

You are listing the things you like; you might as well list what you don't like. You may not like people who gossip all the time, your neighbor, or even your friends now.

Try new things.

Have you always wanted to take dance lessons? What about singing lessons? I know, you really have always wanted to learn pole dancing. No matter what it is or how crazy you think it is, just do it!

Take a personality test.

You will be amazed. Don’t roll your eyes. You may have a hard time answering based on how you are at work, at home, and who you want to be. Try your best and answer the questions for your true self. You may find out things about yourself you had forgotten about or that you didn't know. You may understand yourself better once you discover your personality type and why you do what you do.

Now answer the question Who are you?
