There's Never Been a Better Time to Reinvent Yourself
Take advantage of this opportunity to become the person you've always wanted to be.
For a long time, I thought my dreams were too big. People like me don’t have the kind of future I’ve always imagined for myself. Comfortable. Successful. Surrounded by good people and a life full of travel, love, and a deep and lasting connection with the earth.
Where I come from, people struggle. They scratch out what little they can and loathe themselves every second in the process. My mother was just one example of many. The pattern was always the same. Struggle, struggle, struggle. So, I played down my dreams and labeled them delusional. I put myself on a back burner and pretended it was predestined.
I was foolish and I wasted a long time in that foolery. I held myself back, chose limiting paths in my career, and played down what I needed in relationships and friendships alike. All because I thought I had to be what I had always seen around me.
A few years ago, my eyes opened and the doors of a new reality opened up with them.
I didn’t have to stay stuck in this place. I could become something new. Forcibly, the goggles were wrenched from me. As I lost what I perceived to be my “future” I found an entirely new now and within that the space to entirely reinvent myself.
