🔔 Acceptance Is A Choice

This week, I asked each one of you what your definition of acceptance is. We've heard this word over and over again. It's part of the serenity prayer that most of us are able to say backwards in our sleep.

Choosing to let go and accept the past is a process, but it allows us to create a new future for ourselves. Once we can accept, we can transform and use it as a stepping stone to a better life, and owning the life we deserve.

What is one difficult thing you've chosen to accept in your life today?

He decided to create one himself. Check out this inspiring story, here.
