Pep Talk: Stop Wasting Your Energy

Welcome to today's pep talk.

The topic today is Stop Wasting Your Energy.

Today let's talk about something that affects us all,

The urge to even the score,

To pay back an insult or a harm we've suffered.

So often we find ourselves feeling injured,

Wronged,

And in dire need for justice.

Can you relate?

But here's the truth that needs reinforcement.

You don't need to waste your energy seeking revenge or making others taste their own medicine.

You're not here to watch for others' downfalls or to help speed up their comeuppance.

Just as rotten fruit doesn't need a push to fall off the tree,

Those who spread negativity eventually face their reckoning.

It's the law of life,

The principle of karma,

Working in silent but sure ways.

Instead of dwelling on those negative feelings or people,

Try to focus your energy on growing,

Evolving,

And ripening yourself.

Use your strength to sow seeds of positivity,

Kindness,

Forgiveness,

And understanding.

Don't let negative energy distract you from your growth or topple you from your own branches.

Nurture your mind with healthy thoughts,

Your heart with empathy,

And your life with actions that reflect the amazing woman that you are.

As you walk forward,

Remember,

The sweetest fruit doesn't worry about the rotten ones.

It just grows.

It's reveling in its own sweetness and sharing its goodness with the world.

So aim to be sweet,

Ripened fruit,

Unaffected by the rotten ones falling away.

Keep growing,

Keep glowing,

And remember,

You are stronger.

Braver and far more resilient than you give yourself credit for.
