Do you have a version of yourself you miss?

Have you ever had a routine that made you come alive and then you just forgot it?


This happened to me with my three core words. 

If you’ve experienced something similar, you most likely know the feeling too.

Feeling of losing something valuable that you suddenly remembered you once had.

I learned from my coach at the time, Brendon Burchard, about three core words. 

I had chosen three meaningful core words for myself back in the day we lived in Uruguay.

I reminded myself actively about them, how they challenged me in a good way to show up as my best self.


I had several moments, when my usual decision would have killed something fun, spontaneous and unforgettable with my family.

But because of my three core words I chose differently.

I leaned into the authenticity of the person who I wanted to show up as.

And my family noticed.

They saw how I came alive in those moments.

They were there when I showed up as my playful relaxed self.

They remembered when I chose to play.


And then something happened and I forgot to carry with me those words.

It might have been a big change.

Or even just a small meaningful shift that took my focus elsewhere.

I don't clearly remember.

But the one thing why I want to share this with you is this.

I wish I had someone telling me this years back.

It is okay to forget, remember, and start again.

Deep down, it does not mean failure.

Deep down, it means you value something so much that you can go through the feeling of regret.

And find yourself on the other side.


The question is, are you willing to feel it?

The sadness it might bring when you may ponder upon moments you lost, because you forgot.

You never know how it might enrich your life without being brave enough to feel regret.

But you and I don't need to be left second guessing when we just dive right in. 

Let the emotions flood in.

And find what's on the other side.


Love,

Pia
