Trust me, anyone can go back to basics. It’s all about setting an intention and following through with consistency and discipline.
Everyone I speak to is feeling a sense of grief, insecurity, frustration, and concern right now. I know that going back to basics won’t magically dissolve the real difficulty and mix of emotions we are all experiencing. But they truly do help us feel better.

How we experience the world is largely a result of how we internalize it. Instead of telling yourself dramatic stories about the past—how hurt you were or how hard it was—challenge your emotions and focus on lessons learned. It won’t always be easy.
Just know you have the power to choose from moment to moment how you experience things you enjoy: with a sense of ownership, anxiety, and fear, or with a sense of freedom, peace, and love.
The most important question: What do you choose right now?
