As We Navigate Life, It Can Be Easy To Get Caught Up In Other People’s Narratives, So Here’s How To Be The Hero Of Your Own Story

Afterward, you will walk away with a greater sense of purpose and direction that will help you stay focused on what’s important while cutting out anything in your life that doesn’t serve you.

2. Take Ownership 

If you love rom-coms, then you are definitely familiar with the “damsel in distress” trope or the idea that someone needs to come along and save you.

Quite frankly, though, this idea is just damaging and hinders your belief in your own abilities.

Stop waiting around for someone else– whether that be a parent, friend, or guy– to come along and rescue you. Realize that, at the end of the day, we can only ever rely on ourselves. And that is more than enough.

You have all of the control over your own life. You have the power to dictate your thoughts, actions, and decisions. So, it’s ultimately up to you to make things happen or wallow in the same struggles.

Every day, choose courage over fear. Don’t be afraid to take risks or make mistakes, and own your decisions.

3. Seek Out Challenges

Main characters don’t just hide from obstacles. Sure, they may take a little while to think before they get their bearings.

But, in the end, they always face challenges head-on. You need to do the same.

Stop shying away from difficult or uncomfortable situations and start looking at them as opportunities to grow and learn.
