The Pressure To Be…

One thing I learned this year…

Is that actually I have time.

That I don’t have to have everything figured out or in place.

That things sometimes take time to unfold, and to go their way naturally.

That sometimes you just need to keep going, and doing in order to move forward. Even if you don’t know where you’re headed to.

As much as I love social media for following inspiring people and sharing about my adventures, it can also create a lot of pressure.

The constant feeling that others are “doing more”, that you need to do more in order to be more — it’s just too much sometimes.

And then there’s another online course, another offer, another coaching program.

And it feels like you need to do all of that in order to stay on top of everything; in order to do enough. So you can be enough.

Because if you don’t hustle 24/7 you’re doing something wrong — because that means you’re not committed enough, or your dream is not important enough to you.

But life just happens, and sometimes we don’t understand how. And that’s okay.

As long as we are moving into the direction that feels most like us — that feels most aligned with our values, and matches the life we envision for ourselves in the best way possible. That’s all we need to do.

You don’t need another online course, you don’t need another validation that your dream is WORTHY. You got this.

Even if you don’t know what your next steps look like or where you might be headed — as long as you trust yourself that you are on the right path; you will figure it all out.

Because once you trust, you speak it into existence.

Once you trust, you shift your energy towards your desired outcome and it will HAPPEN.

Step by step, slowly but surely.
