Why We Shouldn’t Fear New Beginnings
Starting over can be tough. Even if it’s not challenging, it’s often not easy. If you’ve recently had to start over, you’re probably feeling emotions like uncertainty, stress, and fear. Although you may be scared, you shouldn’t fear new beginnings because they do signal some amazing things coming into your life.
Take Power Over Your Life
Your new beginning in your life is the ultimate sign of power. Something in your life happened, and you decided you didn’t like it, so you made a change. Not only that, but you likely made a change in the direction that you wanted your life to go. You decided to improve your situation.
When you embark on this new beginning, you are taking away power from the source of whatever caused you the trauma. That power is returned it to its rightful owner, you. Thhis is what makes new beginnings so incredibly powerful.
New Beginnings Spur Growth
As sad as some endings can be, there are always a reasons something came to an end. No matter what those reasons may be, the primary reason something ended is so that you can have a new beginning. Without new beginnings, you may never have a chance to build yourself to your full potential.
Think of it this way; if you were a goldfish, you would probably love the fishbowl you live in. It’s cute and cozy, and you’ve been there your whole life. Now suddenly, you’re in a three-gallon tank.
This is probably scary, but you need this larger tank to grow! In this case, the goldfish will die if left in the small bowl—therefore, even if the giant tank may be terrifying, the goldfish must move to survive.
You Know More Than You Did Before
If the cause of your change was a result of a mistake you made, don’t fret. As you embark on your new beginning, you can move forward with confidence because you now know more than you did before. Mistakes are normal. Starting new is a sign you’ve learned from your previous mistakes, and you are committed to not repeating them again.
Overall, whatever your new beginning is, you’re likely feeling a bit nervous as you think about it. Don’t worry, new beginnings, while scary, are necessary. they teach you lessons and let you take back power over your life. You may not feel great at first, but someday soon you will look back and be thankful you started over and began moving forward.
Make it a great day!
