When you hit rock bottom

Tony Robbins

In life you need either inspiration or desperation.

Some people sabotage themselves with great frequency. I am one of those people. I suppose a therapist could help me figure out why I do this, and I’d love to know why. But more than why, I’d like to know how to stop doing that.

The quote at the top right is from Tony Robbins, whom I have a great deal of respect for. He also said, You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don’t think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully.

Today is a day for decisions. Who am I now? Who have I decided to become?

I certainly don’t want to repeat old patterns that have not worked.

Psalm 121

1. I lift up my eyes to the hills.
   From where does my help come?
2. My help comes from the Lord,
   who made heaven and earth.
3. He will not let your foot be moved;
   he who keeps you will not slumber.
4. Behold, he who keeps Israel
   will neither slumber nor sleep.
5. The Lord is your keeper;
   the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
6. The sun shall not strike you by day,
   nor the moon by night.
7. The Lord will keep you from all evil;
   he will keep your life.
8. The Lord will keep
   your going out and your coming in
   from this time forth and forevermore.

Lord... don’t let this be the end.
