Nothing binds you except your thoughts.

Nothing limits you except your fears.

Nothing controls you except your beliefs.

Do you notice that all the things holding you back are coming from you? They are not the government, religion or other people.... they are all you. Knowing this is wonderful because the only person you can actually change is you. Life's biggest limitations are the ones you make in your mind.

Change your thoughts and change your life.

We often jump to conclusions about endless scenarios, getting ourselves all worked up, negativity abounding, and what for? Flying off the handle about someone's opinion is a waste of time. If that opinion is different from yours, who cares? Do you always have to be right? A person's opinion is simply that, an opinion. It is not necessarily fact or truth, it is how they feel about something. You don't feel that way and that is okay. What are you trying to prove by getting so riled up? Your thoughts, fears or beliefs have come into play and you are simply reacting to one or all of them. A button has been pushed. They are holding you back.

You will require a change in mindset,  in that you need to take a look at what it is that gets you worked up. When your thoughts, fears, and beliefs come to the surface, they need to be addressed. Recognize the issue, face it and let it go. YOU are in charge. 

It all begins and ends in your mind. Whatever you give power to has power over you, if you allow it.
