Hey, new Steemit friends! I'm Yinaury, pronounced [JEE-NOW-REE] weird, I know! :) I'm currently 27 years old. Born and raised in Queens, New York.
I'm one of those nerdy people that actually say reading changed their life.
Growing up, I imagined I'd be married, with kids, a house, and a career, any career as long as it paid well, by the time I was 25. In hindsight, that was the goal. Sounds crazy to me now!
You see, I didn't know then that I was creating an image of what a successful future should look like based on what my parents and most of the people around me believed. It was a very narrow and adopted way of viewing success.
It wasn't until I read "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle that I began to realize there was way more to life than I believed at the time. This new perspective was refreshing and I was inspired to take charge. My mind changed and my life changed with it.
The goal gradually went from achieving the average american dream to learning about myself, what I love, what my skills are, what purpose they can serve, and how I can live out that purpose. I began reading more, watching videos, attending seminars, listening to audio books, playing games, taking classes, trying new things, and exposing myself to anything that would inspire positive changes in all aspects of life.
Since then, I've changed the way I eat, the people I spend time with, replaced bad habits with more empowering ones, and tried things I was once afraid to do. All while learning to love my weaknesses as much as my strengths and figuring out what in the world I'm supposed to be doing or want to do at that!
I've learned a lot from other people on a similar path. Especially how important it is and how good it feels to share our lessons and experiences with others. I love to create content that entertains and educates people so when I was introduced to Steemit and it's friendly community, I was excited to become a part of it and share with you all here as well.
In this blog I will be sharing some of the things I learn and implement on my journey.
~Nutrition facts and healthy recipes
~Tips and tricks on creating positive changes
~Book reviews and recommendations of other self empowering content
~Vlogs sharing thoughts and details on the ups and downs of my personal journey
~Lots of inspiration and good vibes!
Thank you all for your time! I'm happy to be here with you :)
