Change Is Linguistic: Speak the Language of Where You’re Going

 What’s up, wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people?

How are you all doing today? I truly hope you’re having an amazing day and not allowing anyone—or anything—to steal your joy. Welcome to I’m Joy for Life. It’s a beautiful day, and I’m so grateful to share this moment with you.

Today, I want to talk about something that has been deeply resonating with me lately: what’s in your language.

One of my coaches often reminds me that change is linguistic. In other words, the words we speak matter more than we realize. When we change how we speak, we change what we attract into our lives—and I believe that with my whole heart.

Recently, I took time to honestly evaluate the words I’ve been using to talk about my goals, my life, and myself. What I discovered surprised me. I realized I hadn’t been as positive as I thought I was. Instead of speaking from vision, I had been speaking from circumstance. I was allowing current results—and sometimes past disappointments—to determine my language.

But here’s the truth: if we want to change our lives, we have to use our higher faculties. We must use our perception, our reason, and our intuition. We must begin to think, see, and speak as the person we desire to become—not as the person defined by present conditions.

When we constantly evaluate ourselves based on our current situation, we recreate the same results over and over again. But when we shift our language, we shift our reality.

I realized that no matter what is happening on the outside, I have the power to change the inside. And the inside always comes first. I can refuse to let external circumstances control my attitude, my expectations, or my words. Instead, I can choose to speak the language of where I’m going—as if I’m already there.

Every word we speak carries a vibration. Every sentence we form is creating something. If we’re always talking about what’s not working, thinking about what’s missing, and repeating old stories, that’s exactly what we continue to experience. Not because we’re bad or broken—but because language is creative.

So I’m choosing differently.

I’m choosing to speak from the goal, not the gap.

I’m choosing to see myself where I’m going, not where I’ve been.

I’m choosing to speak as the version of me who has already achieved what she desires.

And I want to encourage you to do the same.

Stop allowing past results and current circumstances to dictate what you speak and what you expect. If you’ve been in the habit of saying, “I can’t,” I want you to know this: you can. You can, you can, you can.

Your spirit is beautiful.

Your spiritual DNA is powerful and perfect.

There is no limit to where you can take yourself.

My coach often says, “There is no end to where you can take yourself,” and today, I choose to accept that idea fully. I choose to believe that I can create what I want. I refuse to allow past or present results to control my attitude, my language, or my future.

From this moment forward, I choose to speak positivity.

I choose to believe.

I choose to think and speak like I’ve already achieved my goals.

I am going higher.

Better things than I’ve ever imagined are coming my way.

I am successful.

I am abundant.

I am worthy.

Success is my birthright.

I refuse to allow the past to control my future.

From this present moment, I choose to create a future I’m proud of—a future filled with joy, excitement, fulfillment, and freedom. A future created on my terms, not dictated by past failures, other people’s expectations, or old limitations.

So today, I invite you to stand strong with me. Decide what you want. Speak the language of where you’re going. Act as though it’s already done—because you are capable.

Remember this: you are the prize.

The goal isn’t more important than you.

You are powerful because you have the ability to create what you desire.

And it all starts with how you think, how you feel, and—most importantly—how you speak.

Let’s get excited. Let’s be grateful that we have the power to change our lives starting today. And let’s refuse to allow situations, people, or the past to steal our joy.

Thank you so much for being here and reading this today. I appreciate you more than you know.

And if you’re looking for a coach who will walk with you as you create the life you truly want, I’m here for you.

Just Do It Now: How Taking Action Breaks Procrastination and Restores Your Joy

 

What’s up, wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people? 💕

How are you all doing today? Thank you so much for stopping by Myriam’s Joyful Life. It’s truly a privilege to be here and to share another life insight with you. My hope is that this message encourages you, uplifts you, and helps you move forward on your journey.

Today, I want to talk about something we all face at some point: procrastination—and the freedom that comes when we finally take action.

Knowing What Needs to Be Done… But Still Delaying

Recently, there was something I knew I needed to do. I knew it was important. I knew it required my attention, focus, and preparation. And I also knew it was connected to something I really wanted for my life.

Yet, for some reason, I felt heavy.

My body didn’t want to move.

My mind kept saying, “I can wait. I’ll do it later.”

Have you ever experienced that feeling—when you know exactly what needs to be done, but everything in you resists starting?

Stuck on the Hamster Wheel of Indecision

I realized I was stuck in a cycle of indecision. I wasn’t moving forward, but I wasn’t letting it go either. I kept postponing the task, hoping the feeling would pass or that I’d feel more motivated later.

But instead of getting easier, the weight of the task grew heavier.

That’s the danger of procrastination—it convinces us that waiting will help, when in reality, waiting only adds pressure and stress.

Choosing Action Even When It Feels Hard

Eventually, I made a decision: I was going to do it anyway.

I started.

I stayed focused.

I completed the task.

And once it was done, everything changed.

I felt lighter.

I felt accomplished.

I felt excited.

And yes—I celebrated 🎉

That’s when I asked myself, “Why did I struggle with this in the first place?” Why did I allow fear, hesitation, or discomfort to keep me stuck, when taking action brought so much peace and joy?

Procrastination Steals Joy — Action Restores It

This experience reminded me how often we do this in life. We delay the very things that will move us forward. We allow laziness, fear, or discouragement to slow us down—even when there’s no real reason.

When we procrastinate:

The problem feels heavier

Our stress increases

Our joy decreases

But when we take action:

The burden lifts

Confidence grows

Life becomes more enjoyable

This is the power of delayed gratification—doing what needs to be done now so we can enjoy the results later.

Be a Person of Action

When we choose to act, even when it feels uncomfortable, we create momentum. While others may feel stuck or frustrated, decisive people experience peace and progress—because they handled the task at hand.

If something must be done, the best time to do it is now.

Do It Now — Your Future Self Will Thank You

Today, I want to encourage you:

Whatever you’ve been postponing, get up and do it.

Stop procrastinating. Procrastination steals your joy, your peace, and your forward movement. The faster you take action, the more enjoyment and freedom you’ll experience later.

And when you finish—celebrate. Celebrating reinforces positive habits, confidence, and the mindset of doing things right when they’re supposed to be done.

Final Encouragement

I feel so good after taking action, and that’s why I’m writing this—to encourage you to do the same.

Get to it.

Just do it.

Do it now.

And if you need a coach to guide you, encourage you, and walk alongside you on your personal growth journey, I’ve got you 💛

Allow Yourself to Enjoy the Blessings You’ve Been Given

 

What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people?

Thank you so much for checking out my blog today. It’s a beautiful day, and I’m super excited to be back with another post. Today, I want to talk about something that has been sitting deeply on my heart: allowing yourself to truly enjoy the blessings you’ve been given.

Recently, I had a conversation with my sweet man that really opened my eyes. I was sharing how, whenever he offers to take care of the baby and encourages me to just go do my thing—without worrying or struggling—it brings up a mix of emotions for me. On one hand, I feel excited and grateful. On the other hand, there’s this lingering thought of, “Wow… I actually have time.”

When Blessings Feel Unfamiliar

For so long, my life consisted of doing everything at once—being a mom, running a business, working under constant pressure, and trying to keep up with everything with barely enough time. Now, things have shifted. I have support. I have help. I have space.

And yet, I noticed something interesting about myself.

Even with help, my body still holds onto tightness. There’s this internal pressure—almost like I should still be rushing or struggling—despite the fact that there’s no longer a reason to. That pressure is familiar. It’s what I’ve known for years.

Learning to Accept Help Without Guilt

What I’m doing intentionally now is this:

I’m accepting the help that’s available to me and allowing it to actually help me.

I’m choosing to do things calmly, confidently, and intentionally—rather than from stress or survival mode. I’m reminding myself that I have enough time. I don’t need to rush. I don’t need to operate under pressure to prove anything.

And I’m sharing this because I know I’m not alone.

Breaking Free From Old Patterns of Pressure and Struggle

Sometimes, we become so used to pressure and struggle that when it’s no longer required, we subconsciously recreate it. Even when life has changed for the better, we keep operating from old programs, old behaviors, and old survival patterns that no longer serve us.

So today, I’m calling myself—and you—into something new.

Living in the Present, Not the Past

Let’s choose to live in the present.

Not in past pain.

Not in past struggle.

Not in outdated mindsets that no longer apply.

Could it be that some of us desire more abundance, yet struggle to enjoy what we already have because we’re so used to not having enough? Could it be that the abundance we prayed for is already here—but we haven’t fully allowed ourselves to receive it?

Gratitude, Breath, and Awareness

Today, I invite you to pause.

Take a deep breath.

Notice your life right now.

The life you’re living today may very well be the life you once prayed for—and it is good.

It is okay to accept help.

It is okay to rest.

It is okay to stop working under pressure and start working from inspiration, excitement, intuition, alignment, and power.

Choose Joy Intentionally

As you go about your day today, don’t steal your own joy.

Be intentional about what you’re intentional about.

Notice what you’re noticing.

Allow the help. Accept the change. Embrace the peace.

There is no power in pressure.

There is no joy in constant stress.

And there is so much beauty in allowing yourself to enjoy the blessings you’ve been given.

Don’t let anyone—and especially not yourself—steal your joy 💛

Stop Planning the Plan — Start Doing the Work

 

Good morning, wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people. 🌞

It’s a beautiful day today, and I’m truly happy you’re here.

Today, I want to talk about something that recently came to my attention: doing the steps and following the instructions instead of constantly reviewing the instructions.

I noticed that I’ve gathered a lot of strategies around mindset training. Books, PDFs, notes, exercises, teachings — all meant to help me create a better mindset and a better life. On top of that, I have spiritual practices I love, like meditation and visualization exercises. All of it is good. All of it has value.

But here’s what I noticed…

When I started thinking too much about everything I needed to do — all the strategies, all the instructions, all the practices — I started to feel distracted, overwhelmed, and mentally cluttered. Instead of feeling more peaceful, I felt anxious. Instead of feeling freer, I felt weighed down.

And then a powerful realization hit me.

The reason I’m doing mindset work is to create peace, clarity, freedom, and joy — not more chaos, confusion, or pressure.

Could it be that what was meant to help me had slowly turned into information overload?

Could it be that mindset work had become another “to-do list” instead of a pathway to the life I actually want?

That’s when I asked myself one simple but life-changing question:

What is the ONE thing I need to do right now that will move me closer to my goal?

Not ten things.

Not everything at once.

Just one clear, aligned action.

And the answer was simple:

I need to focus on getting better at my craft. I need to practice. I need to show up. I need to do the work.

I realized that I was spending a lot of time priming myself — reading, planning, preparing, visualizing — but not enough time actually becoming the person who gets the result. You can’t just prepare forever. At some point, you have to practice. You have to implement. You have to take action.

You can read every instruction in the world, but if you never apply it, nothing changes.

That’s why I wanted to bring this message to you today.

Could it be that the reason you’re feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, or anxious is because you’re stuck planning instead of doing?

Could it be that you’re thinking about the steps, studying the steps, and talking about the steps — but not actually taking the steps?

Planning has its place. Learning has its place. Mindset work is powerful.

But implementation is what creates results.

So today, as you evaluate everything on your plate, ask yourself:

Am I practicing the skill I want to master?

Am I taking the actions that move me forward?

Am I reaching out, following up, applying, signing up, testing, showing up?

Read the books — yes.

Take the courses — yes.

Learn the knowledge — yes.

But then use it. Practice it.

Apply it.

Do the thing.

That’s what leads to freedom.

That’s what builds confidence.

That’s what changes your life.

So let’s stop planning the plan.

Let’s start taking action.

Let’s start making real progress toward the life we want.

And as always — don’t let anybody steal your joy. 💫
