Surrendering

When the seasons start to change I can’t contain my excitement as I always view it as a fresh start. I love setting new goals for myself and decluttering in all areas of my life - but have found to allow myself grace if things don’t go as planned. Goals are amazing to have, but it’s what happens that can be destructive when I don’t follow through with them. Or worse - when I fail.

Failure is REALLY hard for me, and I always go back to “what will other people think of me?” and let that control the trajectory of my path. I am trying really hard to let go of what I cannot control (pandemics, other’s actions/choices etc) and focus my time and energy on what I can - myself. It that easy? fuck no. It is actually incredibly challenging LOL.

I honestly have found that I am the best version of myself when I fully let go of expectation and surrender to what is to come - easier said than done amiright? If I continue to let the possibility of failure control how I move forward everyday, growth will never happen. And even if there is failure involved, how can I let that contribute to my growth rather than allowing it to take over leading to self-destruction.

Obviously this is something that I work towards everyday, and I am sure you’re wondering why I am sharing this with the universe. Well I want people to know that we are all works is progress, and we are allowed to fail. I am allowed to fail. FAILING IS OK! It’s what we chose to do after we fail. What I chose to do after I fail.

My Mantra: I choose to surrender.
