Noun.

Updated: Nov 10, 2023

Don't be a noun.


Be a verb.


An adjective.


Be anything but fixed.


Let go of being obvious, dull, and molten.


Let people go, who do not belong on your journey, or in your tribe, and be OK with it.


Coincidentally, understand that it's OK, to not be OK all the time.


Remember to remind yourself, that your failures are a bruise, and not a tattoo.


They do not define you.


They are merely a stepping stone.


A life lesson.


Be patient enough to let time turn your wounds into wisdom.


Your mess into your message.


If you have been hurt or damaged, don't let what has happened to you, happen to others.


Because there are some lessons that do NOT need to be paid forward.


Don't think payback is always something good.


And also never forget to lead with love, even when it hurts and we don't want to.


Don't let your sadness become a scar which affects your attitude.


Don't let your traumas become you and influence how you behave.


Know that you will always need to be to ready to pivot.


In order to succeed, you need to be fluid.


Because if you can't roll with the tides, you will indeed drown eventually.


Recognize that when writing the story of your life, you can never let anyone else hold the pen.


Know that being established isn't necessarily a good thing, especially if you are fixed in the wrong ideas,behaviors, and habits.


It's not about the destination, its about the journey, and moreover, how well you can tolerate the dilemmas thrown at you during that journey.


We all have a cross to bear.


They just don't tend to all look the same, but they are there.


Never make a permanent decision based on temporary feelings.


Whatever you want from someone else, give it to yourself first, because that is what YOU truly need, and that will keep your hunger for someone who is unworthy, at bay.


In other words, validate yourself, reward youself, but also be humble enough to embrace your misgivings.


Because it will always start, and end, with you.


And by you, I mean me.


This is really a lecture to myself.


But for anyone else that needed to hear these knowledge bombs, here you go, and Happy Tuesday!


So here's to the adventure we call life, and the people we are lucky enough to share it with.


And here's to the people we are, we were, and that we aspire to be.


Don't let your past define you, and don't let the future scare you.


We got this.


Now go on and pay it forward, in the most wonderful way.


Hugs!


Xoxo,

C.
