looking forward (willingly).

looking forward - willingly.

like anyone, when I look forward to the future, I am met with fear and stress. what does it hold? and most importantly, ‘what if I make the wrong choice?’ it is a question that I am met with regularly. I believe that this adhd mind of mine gets caught up in worrying about not living up to the life I was ‘supposed’ to live. don’t know what that means, but that irrational brain of mine loves to put itself in that spot every time. truthfully, I don’t think I have met someone yet that has a concrete answer. there is always loss with every choice that is made. learning to let go of that ‘loss’ must be a lifelong quest.

so, what to do?

in my mind there are countless ways to do it, but the one I want to concentrate on is to just take action.

just take action.

there is no way to know if it was the right decision without trying, without doing. one of my most favourite quotes of all time is…

the magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

the work gives you a clear idea of what is for you and what is not. we live in a virtual and internal space with how life is nowadays. by putting the work and words on the paper we step closer to what is possible.

if we are to look forward understand that it will always take longer than imagined, it will suck, and it won’t always feel good (it never was supposed to be fun all the time). however, when we invest the time and put ourselves into discomfort, we normally find out what is for us. therefore, I leave you with this.

anything that ever had real meaning in your life was on the other side of discomfort.

do the work.

appreciate your own path.

show up.

be kind.
