I had a realization the other day, the kind that doesn’t quite sink in until you say it out loud. Here is what I said: My choice to only focus on what I can’t do, and the limitations I am experiencing, is keeping me from what I can do.
It’s the reason(you could also say excuse) why I’ve waned from writing on this blog, even though I find great satisfaction in expressing my thoughts into words.
“I don’t have the time today.”
“I have too much to do.”
“I have nothing to write about.”
All these statements can be factual and true but I’ve forgotten that that is just one side of the equation. The other side looks like this:
“I have the ability to find the time.”
“I can prioritise my schedule and commitments better.”
“I can become more aware and seize moments of inspiration instead of getting distracted.”
Ultimately, I realised that showing up imperfect does more to build me as a person than not showing up at all.
To our growth,
Jean.
