You’ve heard and seen it all before; believe in yourself, manifest what you want, reach for the stars, you can do anything you put your mind to.
These cliché quotes drown our social media feeds in an attempt to bring some positive vibes and love your way. But do you even notice let alone take these quote advice on board?
We live in a current world that tells us what success looks like, what beauty looks like, what talent looks likes, parenting talent looks like, what relationship goals look like. It’s all so overwhelming and when you scroll through your social media feeds to see nothing short of picture perfect accounts, it’s hard not to be disheartened from your “ordinary” and “imperfect” life.
So when so many people show us their “perfect” unattainable life, is it worth believing in yourself and what you have to offer the world? Absolutely! and here’s why:
- There is no one else in the world like you. You are your own person and nothing in your life should make you feel unworthy. Your life is building your story. A story worth sharing with the world. You never know who you might inspire or even save.
- Everyone has ordinary and imperfect days. They’re just not going to show you. No one’s life is always action packed and extraordinary. Remember, everyone has bad days, sad days and lazy days.
- We all doubt ourselves and our abilities. Even those really confident people you think are just oozing of glitter and sparkle – they also doubt their abilities at times. You just have to take a chance and see if the doubt is right or wrong.
- Negative people don’t go away. They are mosquitos. Always buzzing in your ear with nonsense and no direction. Let’s not forget they are irritating too. People will be negative to your perseverance to do something with your life when they themselves are insecure and have no ambition.
- You have something to offer. You may not know it yet, but everyone has a purpose and talent that makes the world a better place. This includes you.
- You deserve success. You are not below and less deserving of anyone. Just like everyone else you deserve to dream big, achieve big and reach for the stars. So don’t let negative people talk you out of the things you want to do.
So when you read those quotes to believe in yourself, to set goals, to dream big, to not live in the shadows-know these quotes are talking to you. They are letting you know it’s your time to shine, to succeed and to believe in yourself.
You are worth it. Believe that you are. If you don’t have your back, then who will?
Your future is entirely way too bright for you to let anything or anyone block your light.
