The world is full with people that define success in a single way.
Nothing bad with that, but the reminder is that success has different shapes, it comes at different times, and it is your responsibility (not theirs) to define how success looks like for you.
Your goal is not to avoid pain, always be brave, stay clear of risks, shy away from difficult conversations, always be positive, forgo heavy responsibilities, never get angry, be perfect.
Your goal is to learn how to manage all that, how to continue on your journey despite all that, how to fall, and say sorry, and say I did not mean to, and get back on track.
Most things are out of your control. The way you adapt to most things should then be your only focus.
It’s your turn.
There’s no need for someone to tell you it is, no need to wait for the perfect situation, no need to take that training or listen to that podcast before you get to it.
It’s your turn, your turn is now.
You own this.
Consistency is difficult.
Because consistency requires three difficult choices.
The good thing is, you can train your consistency muscles starting from the small things, the daily habits that might seem insignificant at first.
Pay attention as you get to implement those.
How does it feel?
In most things we see presage, meaning, intention. That’s our way to try and control the chaos of life.
But just because our child is slow eating their lunch, it doesn’t mean they will be slow at everything as they grow up.
Just because someone has not answered our call for help, it doesn’t mean they don’t care.
Just because we have not been awarded that important role, it doesn’t mean we are less worthy of consideration.
More often then not, things merely happen. We should be brave enough to accept that without judgement and move on.
