We have all heard and been told that "it is what it is". A statement that puts our goals out of reach because it is as if we have no control. While yes, sometimes "it is what it is". Contrary, it doesn't always have to be what it is.
To dive deeper... There are moments and challenges in life that are simply out of our hands. Whether the result had already come about or the actions are those of others, there are things we cannot control. However, it doesn't always have to be what it is. There are many times we dismiss our capabilities to submit to our subconscious telling us "it is what it is". We have an endless plethora of skills and traits that regardless of the predicted outcome, we can change. Let's say we got fired from a job. In that exact moment, it is what it is. There is nothing you will be able to do that will change this outcome for it has already passed. But, is this supposed to deter you from future opportunities that may come your way? Is this going to stop you from driving forward even with the multitude of roadblocks? Well, it can't. We lose out on so many opportunities by allowing things to happen TO us rather than FOR us. Viewing things as concrete and not an opportunity to grow only limits our capabilities. You are absolutely capable of all you hope and dream to do. You were put on this Earth and given each seed of creativity and hope to capitalize on. You wouldn't have thought it if you didn't think it was in your realm of things you could accomplish. So yes, I understand sometimes it is what it is, but does it always have to be what it is? That is for you to determine. With love, Bre

I didn’t let “it is what it is” mindset keep me from changing my life around.
