Lead By Example

I was reporting off of shift the other night and I started getting negative due to others’ behaviors and negative communication about each other. Thankfully, my peer who has been by my side for awhile now replied, “We need to lead by example.” She instantly got me out of my negative thoughts. I woke up, rebooted, and let go of the drama, which was infecting me. Yes, I will use the word, infection. Negativity is an infection, it lingers. If you are continually negative, you are riding the wave of bad karma. After reading the last sentence and you want to choose to be positive; one-good for you, that is a small step, and two, it doesn’t work that way to instantaneously receive good karma. I have said this many times, ” YOU ATTRACT WHO YOU ARE.” In order to get out of the negative realm, you have to work at it constantly and consistently. It is such hard work. I would know. Five years of counseling and now, coaching. Actually, I need both because I want to be better. Fix my learned bad habits and create goals for the future. We were not placed in this world to be negative, we were put here to work as a whole, in order to better this so called place, Earth.

I read something the other day and it read, “live your life as if everyone is your teacher.” Interesting approach. I have been living it. I have crossed a lot of paths where I was totally thrown off course. Why? They were teaching me what not to be, however, I didn’t recognize it at the time. I was not aware or in tune to it. I was hooked to the drama because more people are in a dramatic state than they are in a peaceful state. Drama made me feel superior because it was more known at the time, but it actually was making me sink faster. It made me anxious and depressed because I knew in the back of my mind, what comes around, goes around. It was going to bite me in the ass at some point and it did many times. I was always treading water. You get tired at some point. That point was last year for me. How long is it going to take you?

When you stop treading, you will take a plunge into a rabbit hole, the unknown. It’s scary because not many people live there. You start to question if you really want to be different. You start questioning everything! Your existence, your being, your why? This is when the work begins. After you jump off of the drama train, you question why you stayed there for so long? It’s more comfortable being stagnant. Making moves is fearful and different. However, those moves will become motivational at some point. Your new motives will motivate to be the lead and set the example of what people want to follow. However, when you make the shift, you are going to lose a lot of so called friends. People don’t like change. If they don’t change with you or support you, they weren’t meant for you. In turn, beings who are on the new vibration as you will enter into your life and you will never look back. I didn’t.
