Boxes

Majority of my life I thought I had to be a certain way. I thought it was either this or that box and that there was only room for one box. What I didn’t realize is we are multi dimensional humans, we aren’t one dimensional and meant to be in one box, one category, ect. We are meant to be whoever we want to be. Whatever you want you can be.

These made up boxes you think you need to be in are bs. You can be all the things you want to be and still be accepted. Show up as you and what makes you happy, you will be much more free. I realized I love so many things and am not one or the other. I love my career and am ambitious, but I also enjoy a good party. I love deep chats, but I also like shooting the shit and surface level / silly convos. I enjoy partying and I also enjoy low key/chill. I enjoy nourishing my body/mindfulness and I also enjoy non wellness activities. I’m a well balanced human.

Let go of the boxes, categories, facades & expectations you place on yourself. It’s your life, you can do whatever you want, and no one is holding you to anything. It’s yourself that is judging you and setting certain expectations on how you should live your life. You don’t have to report to anyone. Your life doesn’t need to make sense to anyone, but YOU. And most likely, these expectations are coming from beliefs that are false. It’s time to let go of these beliefs that no longer serve you.

Some reflection:

Where are the expectations coming from that you place on yourself? How do you make decisions? Are both of these based on what you think society wants from you? What you think your friends want from you? What you think based on your old neighbor growing up? Based on your family? Based on your friend from childhood? Based on some belief that is so far from the truth? Or based on how you feel? Maybe a mix of both? Does it feel good? It’s never too late to start making decisions based on what you truly want, from a place of how you feel - does it feel good vs. I think I should do this.

The only right way to live is by being authentically you. There isn’t more to do, only be more you. 

Letting go of these dumb af boxes has been so freeing. 

You can be whoever you want to be. 

The only one holding you back is you. 

And once you show up as you, you’ll effortlessly attract people like you. 

And the people who don’t get it? Don’t worry about them, again, they most likely are judinging themselves. Focus on you. You will effortlessly attract the right people that are meant to be in your life. Stop focusing on who you need to be and just be who you want to be.
