Sitting here pondering as I do sometimes. It's easy to throw around the word blessings, and yes life and other words that have the opportunity for people to sometimes think that life is easy or that my path is less rough, or different than theirs. 🤔
In reality, my path is different, everyone's is. Nobody walks the same journey. But mine has been far from easy, and my road has been anything but straight.
I have absolutely found success, but the days I didn't get it right aren't highlighted, I don't talk about them, and I don't point them out, because living in those feelings isn't useful, and highlighting them just steals joy from others. I am so grateful for every single mistake. Every turn in the wrong direction, and every hurt (and there have been so many) on my journey. Because even in the frustration, I learned.
Every time I accidentally hurt someone, it has given me the opportunity to make it right, to grow and to understand the impact my words can have on another human. I'll make mistakes again. I'll hurt more people, but I'm learning and I'm trying, as time goes on to show up as the best version of myself every day.
Every time a well laid plan doesn't play out the way I thought it would. I learn. There have been days (still are days) when I do not win, even though I give it my best. Although those days are incredibly frustrating (and I don't enjoy them), there are so many lessons that are learned and my choice is not to spiral emotionally, and/or post negativity. I choose to use it as fuel. To get up and work harder.
So today I guess, I'm in reflection mode. Reflecting what was, what is and what is coming.
Thankful for the "blessings" that have sometimes come in the form of learning lessons and mistakes.
Enjoying the peaceful place - a life without regret.
Excited as I look towards the future. I find myself on the edge of something brilliant. The trajectory is up, I'm following the light, I am surrounding myself with people who feel like sunshine, and I'm on a path to see how much impact I can have on the world.
Every day is a new day and a new opportunity to get it right...
If you're reading this and you are looking for transparency, light and sunshine.... you might think about asking questions (answers always come with no strings attached). I might have just built a team, a business, a side hustle...a family that is the puzzle piece that your world is missing.
