You are smart, you are kind, you are important…
my only wish, requirement and just a friendly advice is: stop being so critical, judgmental, strict and demanding. Drop the deadlines, drop those bullet points. Just enjoy, just live, just love. Isn’t that all we need? That’s right. Now, if you will excuse me – I have a graceful life to live and I need to hurry up!
How many times have you felt lost and never found in a hassle of every day life? How many times you wished to stop for a second to find yourself, your true self? How many times you were meant to wear a mask when all you wanted is to be who you really are? I think most of you have lost the count. Speaking of myself – I am just like anybody else. Personally, I love bucket lists and to prove that most of my pinterest boards feature “….. to do list” phrase. Manifests, resolutions, to do lists – all of these are very useful tools for self-development. I love to be organized and sorted out, that’s what brings comfort and relaxation into my life. So… what am I talking about?
I am pretty sure that you are confused as of what am I trying to say here. Well, it is all pretty straight forward: there is no use of a bucket list if you are not happy with who you are, if you don’t have time for yourself. So my best advice is: focus on yourself first. Don’t bring it to the extremes, don’t master the art of self-pity, but be sure to find yourself and define what and who you are. Life is too busy nowadays and it gets so easy to lose yourself. Don’t risk it and don’t wait. Believe me, it is a lot more enjoyable to achieve all those great things in life when you are confident, smart, and important not only to others, but also to yourself.
