There have been crucial times in my life when I've made major changes. I was going in one direction and I took a sharp right in another. Or I did a 180. Whatever I had done, said or believed before, I went in the opposite direction. Other times a change was barely noticeable but over time made a major difference. I make deliberate choices whether they are small or big.

I am grateful for these pivots, for the choices that I made. Some were hard choices that I wished I hadn't had to make. They brought much grievance and yet, I am thankful that I made them. They were good new directions to take. I look back at my younger self that made these choices and I say thank you, because of you great people, things and opportunities came into my life. I don't undermine my younger self by constantly questionning the choices she made. Going back I would maybe do some things differently, but I never doubt that she handled these decisions the very best way she could. I thank her and I move on from here.

I can pivot at any moment as I listen to my inner voice and intution. I can decide to no longer want to go shoppng for food even as I have just arrived at the supermarket parking lot. What felt like a yes before may no longer. I give myself permission to change plans. It doesn't need to make sense. I honor and trust that.

I cautiously pivot away from some things and enthusiastically pivot towards others. I am a grown sovereign adult who chooses wisely and auto corrects as needed.

I take the time I need to check in regularly to see where I stand on things and what new information has come to light.

My self talk:

I reserve the right to pivot.
I honor my intution and insight.
I stand by my younger self.
