Great distinction. It isn't about positivity. It's about self acceptance. We are meant to feel it all. ❤️

I read this somewhere or heard it on a podcast a few years back. I stopped what I was doing and wrote it down. And it has stuck with me.

When I'm fighting against what is, I think about the buffet of life, and how there is space for all of it. A peaceful coexistence with my intentional focus on what I do want, rather than fighting against what I don't.

My energy is a finite resource. My power comes from deciding what I pour my energy into.

We were designed to experience the full spectrum of human emotions. They are there to guide us. If we can feel it, it has a purpose. Next time you you feel discomfort of some kind, be with it. Give it permission to exist. Not only does this help you move through it, it keeps you from wasting energy pushing it away or trying to avoid it. There is so much strength found in fully being with what we feel.

Perfectionism is a burden that for years I viewed as a strength.

The truth is, it kept me rooted in place, paralyzed by fear. I silently judged other people who were doing FAR more than I was. They weren't afraid to make mistakes and were learning at a more rapid pace.

I was inauthentic, talking a big game and doing nothing to make it a reality.

Then I hid in shame as I realized I was no closer to my dream than I was months ago.

I told myself it was foolish to take action without all of the information. I convinced myself I could not come back from failure, so I better get it right the first time. My mind had an excuse for everything. I thought it was keeping me safe. In reality, it was keeping me stuck in place.

Perfectionism can be such a silent struggle. On the outside we can look like we have it all together, but on the inside we are chasing the unattainable, spending 100% of the time telling ourselves we are not good enough and never will be.

Does this sound familiar? You are not alone! DM me for tips to overcome the struggles of perfectionism.

Does this sound familiar? Sensing rejection on the horizon and trying force/control/change the outcome. Or how about, stressing over every minute detail to ensure failure isn't even a possible outcome.

Rejection and failure can seem terrifying. Especially when we are pouring so much energy into trying to prevent them.

How would your life be different if you settled into the thought, 'What is meant for me will not pass me by."?

Have you ever said to yourself, "I will be happier when..."

When I lose the weight, when I hit my goal, when I get the promotion...

It's good to have goals and strive to be better, but don't do it at the expense of the present moment.

The present moment is all we ever have. The past is gone. The future has yet to come. And the present moment is really all we can ever experience. Don't waste it. This moment matters.

I keep coming across this on TikTok and it resonates deeply with me. I shared it in hopes that others would find value in it too.

Also, if you know the original writer, let me know so I can give proper credit.
