When the going gets tough, find serenity in change. A calm that surpasses all understanding. Sometimes it’s not about the change, but the wisdom of deciphering what you control.
Don’t beat yourself up when you fail at every turn. You might even be extremely focused on what you really want to change, that anything different than what you want only upsets your peace.

As actions and habits are uprooted, keep your focus on what you can control.
Nothing is impossible.
So change is possible.
I was doing a little research on a very familiar prayer, The Serenity Prayer. And I discovered that it was written by an American Theologian Karl Paul Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971). It was popularized by Alcoholics Anonymous.
The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.
You are loved where you are. And yes, you can make a change. But you are not loved more or less when it comes to that change.
Rest in the loving arms of the peace that surpasses all understanding.
Find your serenity!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Find serenity in change!
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” ~ Philippians 4:6
Change is not easy. But what you control is well known. Take the wisdom you have and accept what can be changed, and those things that cannot.
Don’t get wrapped up in the little petty stuff that is only holding you back.
Smile bigger, because you know what you control. You got this!
Accept the hardships, because it’s part of the journey. And direct your heart and mind to the one who can change anything; God, Himself.
He’s got you today and every day!
There’s no stopping you. You are unstoppable.
