Hey love,
Today I want to talk to you about progress,
About,
You know,
Growing and becoming a better version of yourself,
Reaching your goals and yeah,
Just becoming,
Becoming better.
And for me this,
Like it's always when we see people that made it,
You know,
The people that have money,
The people that have built a community,
The people that have this perfect relationship,
This perfect family,
The people that are somehow always on vacation,
The people that have time to go to Pilates,
To go to the gym,
The people that have time to,
To just do whatever makes them feel good and they're somehow always seeming so happy.
And you're looking at them and you're like,
Wow,
It's just so easy for them.
And let me tell you,
Growth is something that is not easy at all.
Whatever you reach in your life has these moments of growth towards it and growth has always,
Like the second you start to outgrow your personality,
The second you start to,
To earn more money,
To,
To have more responsibility about a family,
About a relationship,
Whatever,
Where you step up and where you reach the next level,
You have to let go something of your old personality because once you change your life,
You start to be another person.
So the old things of your old identity,
They,
They don't make sense anymore and you have to let them go.
And this,
This grief for your old personality is something that is at some time unbearable.
It hurts and it feels ugly and it feels dark,
But it is like the way of growing.
So I really want to encourage you to,
To step out of your comfort zone,
To get to that point of where you want to be in life,
Knowing that the people who have made it in your eyes were going through those exact same steps.
They had to let go of old friendships,
They had to let go of,
Of old habits,
Of,
Of old thoughts,
And bring in the new identity.
And this is hard at the,
At the beginning.
It is your first time being someone who earns more money.
It is your first time in this new job.
It is your first time in a lovely relationship.
So give yourself grace because it is also the very first time you're on that earth here,
Living your life the first time you've never done it before.
So how can you do everything perfect?
You can't,
And that's perfectly fine.
And whenever you're asking for something new,
For something bigger in your life,
Know that it always comes with a grow.
It comes with a challenge.
Because in order to be there,
You need to,
To overcome something to change your identity,
And it oftentimes leads to letting go of something else.
And it's hard in the moment,
But it's beautiful afterwards,
And it's always worth it.
So I want to,
To just let you know that for other people,
It's,
It's hard as well.
We all have those days that are hard,
Those days where we just want to cry,
Those days where we are rethinking everything,
Where we're questioning the meaning of life,
The meaning of our job,
The meaning of the relationship,
Or whatsoever.
There are so many hard days for everything,
Single one.
And the ones that get to where they want to be,
Are the ones that get through that,
And see the beauty in growth.
Because you're only getting those challenges,
Because you are made for something greater.
