What Is Stopping You From Becoming The Best You?

Updated: Jun 5

If you were to rate your current life status from 1 to 10, 1 as your worst life status and 10 as your best, what would you rate yourself and why?

If you rate yourself a perfect 10 or even 9, congratulations! This means you are in your best self! You have no issues with your body, you have no insecurities, you are in perfect health, your soul and spirit are at peace and content, and you have a strong relationship with the people who matter to you and above all to God! Keep doing what you are doing now and continue living your best. You can stop reading this article and read another article or check our shop! ;)

If you rate yourself lower than 9, something hinders you from becoming the best you.

You might say nobody is perfect, so getting a perfect score is impossible. Well, the “best you” is not the “perfect you.” Of course! Nobody is perfect but you can strive for perfection because of God’s perfect love and favor.

Your best self is not about not making any mistakes but about learning every time you make bad choices and not making the same mistakes over and over again. It is about seeking wisdom and using it as you care for God’s temple (your body), more so your soul and spirit.

The I-can-never-be-at-my-best-because-I-make-poor-decisions-all-the-time mentality has stopped you from becoming what God has intended you to be! Do not listen to whatever negative voices you are hearing. Listen to the voice which matters the most — God’s voice! Even if you fall along the way, God doesn’t see you as a failure! Get back up, take one step at a time, and strive to be the best version of yourself!

Another thing that may have stopped you from becoming the best you is the mediocre mindset. You don’t exist to be below average. You are created to fulfill your full potential and live the best and most blessed life for God’s purpose and glory!

Maybe you are chained by your fear (whatever your fear is) and this might be the reason why you can’t move toward your goal. Fear robs you of becoming the best version of yourself. Fear stops you from pursuing your desires. But you know what is the antidote to fear?

Faith!

When you have faith in yourself and above all to God, your fear will not have power over you! Have faith in yourself that you can achieve beyond the average and be the best you! Have faith in God that He will be with you and help you, especially in situations beyond your control. Do not allow your fear to stop you from becoming the best you.
