Choose your hard

It is hard to get up early and go to the gym. It is also hard to feel uncomfortable in your own body.
It is hard to eat clean and make conscious choices. It is also hard to live with low energy and inflammation.
It is hard to set boundaries with people. It is also hard to feel drained and taken advantage of.
It is hard to speak your truth. It is also hard to stay silent and carry the weight of unspoken emotions.
It is hard to heal your trauma. It is also hard to keep repeating the same patterns that keep hurting you.
It is hard to sit with your pain and face the darkness. It is also hard to keep running from it and watching it follow you everywhere.
It is hard to start again. It is also hard to stay stuck.
It is hard to walk away from what is not aligned. It is also hard to stay in a life that breaks your spirit.
It is hard to grow. It is also hard to stay small.

The truth is this. Life will always require effort, courage and awareness. We do not get to avoid the hard, we only get to choose which hard leads us into our becoming.

The hard that leads to healing; the hard that leads to growth; the hard that leads to freedom? Or the hard that keeps us looping in the same pain and the same stories?

Becoming aware of your choices is the first step. Your life is a collection of hards that you have chosen. Every decision shapes the next version of you, and nothing changes until you choose a different hard.

The question to ask yourself is simple.
Which hard is worth choosing today.
