I learnt something this week and I wanted to share it. We are capable of so many things. All we have to do is believe in ourselves. Just taking that chance and opportunity will open so many doors. It may be scary but everyone is in the same position. Showing kindness is important, making everyone in the room feel welcome is powerful. It’s walking into a room of strangers and making them feel comfortable. It’s not a competition, it’s being an understanding person. Your worth does not decrease. Do something that scares you, it will be the most empowering thing you do.
Being the boss of your life is the most important thing. It’s you at the end of the hard-working day. It’s you who goes through struggles and new experiences. You are your life long companion. It’s important to push yourself, know when to say no but also when to say yes. It’s learning the balance of self-care. Do something for your future self. Make your future self proud. It’s okay not to have it all figured out. Most people don’t but it’s important to know yourself.
People are going to talk whether you do good or bad. There is always going to be a story or a scandal. You will always be the bad guy in someone’s story. But this is none of your business. You need to focus on you. Yes, you made a couple of mistakes. But we are all human, learning life. it’s not going to be pretty and perfect all the time. Those moments where it is you feel on top of the world like you can do anything. Hold onto that. Be brave. Life is about taking risks. Learning what’s right and wrong and what’s best for you. No one has the right to comment on your life or decisions because they simply aren’t you. They don’t know what you have been through. So don’t worry. Being selfish sometimes and doing things for the feeling and buzz is okay.
Distance yourself from anyone who makes you feel bad about yourself or your life. You are trying your best. You don’t need anyone bringing you down. The people in your life should bring you happiness and support. No judgement. Yes, they may not understand you and that’s okay. This is your journey. No one else’s. Live for you and that dream you have in your head. Listen to positivity. You are so capable of whatever you are going through.
It will work out in the end. Life has a way of proving you wrong sometimes. It can give you what you want but with massive consequences. Listen to life. Look out for those lessons. Sometimes you have to learn the hard way to be put in the right direction. Be yourself and be true to who you are. You are strong, you are brave and you are capable. You may not get there straight away and there may be some hurdles but you can get through it. Put your head down and work for what you want. There are going to be some set backs and hardships but all that you can over come.
Your only limit is you. Go be the boss of your life and take back what has always and will always be yours. YOU.
Lots of love and happiness
