It is OK to ask for help | Elin Härkönens blogg

How do you want to live your life? If you're not happy with your life situation - change it If you're not happy with your job - do something about it If you're not feeling well, are suffering from pain, having problem sleeping - Act now. It will only get worse otherwise. So many people are complaining over their life-situation. They are stressed, unhappy and depressed. WHY? And why do they not act, and trying to change it? My advice to you today is: Instead of wasting energy on complaining, DO something about it. YOU are the only one who can CHANGE your life. There are countless of help and support to get to make the changes easier, but YOU have to search for the right help. I am a person who want to be able to do EVERYTHING myself... I've always been that way. I like the feeling of being independent. I like the feeling of being able to take care of myself. I like to feel unstoppable and unbeatable. And I love the feeling of being STRONG . I don't like to ask for help, I don't like the fact that we all need to take help sometimes.... BUT After everything I've been through I know that for people like me, one of the HARDEST things you can do is to just: ASK FOR HELP. That shows STRENGTH. Struggling to ask for help is especially common for high-achievers and people with BIG dreams. People like me who want to feel independent . And also doesn't want to be a burden for anyone else. So for you who recognize yourself I just want to say: ÏT IS OK to ask for help. It can actually be one of the most important things you do. It was for me during my rehab period, it was for me when I ended up with depression, it was for me during the dark period when training and food took over my life, it was for me when I needed to learn how to train because I LOVE MY BODY and not because I hated it. It was for me when I needed to find a BALANCE. I wouldn't have been where I am today IF I wouldn't have asked for help. At those times I needed to ask for help, it was the hardest thing I could do. BUT. it was the BEST things I could do . Thanks to that am I today STRONGER THAN EVER and are able to HELP other people. I want to take away the SHAME of asking for help.... I want everyone to feel that it is OK to ask for help! I want everyone who need a psychologist or health-coach to be able to TALK ABOUT it without feeling ashamed.
