I’m glad you saw what I was trying to communicate. Look up ^^^ see anything in this sentence?

GREAT!

I took the liberty of rewriting this sentence for you….

I WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY CRUMBS FROM ANYONE – I KNOW WHO I AM AND I KNOW WHAT I WANT. I KNOW WHAT I AM WORTH AND I WILL NOT SETTLE FOR LESS.

So I read an interesting article in a psych magazine the other day….

Apparently it takes between 2 – 8 months to changes ones behavior.

MM, I believe to change how you want to live your life so that YOU focus on YOUR goals, means that EVERY DAY that you have to focus on that goal. I would wake up every morning and figure out what YOU want to do that day for YOURSELF. I understand that you and XBF work together so you will have some interactions. When you are not working together you should have a plan for what you are going to do that day. The plan IMO, should NOT include him.

Honestly, I do not believe that one day you wake up and figure it all out. Nope. It is a process, a journey if you will. Maybe one thing you can do is this….

Write down the qualities of who you want to be and then describe how you view those qualities.

For example:

I want to be a better friend to my lady friends.

That means that I am more open and honest with them, I make an effort to spend X time with them. I listen and do not judge them. I am there when they need me.

Make sense?
