Being an adult in today’s world is hard but not loving yourself enough for who you are makes it even harder than it is. Life can get tough, but life isn’t always that serious. It’s okay to take a break, laugh, do something out of the ordinary and still pick things up from where you left them. If there’s one thing I learnt about the way of life last year, it’s the fact that everything happens when the time is right. I can vividly remember having sleepless nights over things I needed and goals I needed to achieve and funny enough, I look back a few months later and realize I have those things and more.
Kindness is the least we can offer ourselves in this life of ours and this year, we all need to make it a priority to be kind to ourselves and that starts with loving ourselves enough to know we are enough. Next, never compare yourself to others because that would take your joy away. Be grateful for your journey so far because yo
u know not what others are doing to get to where they are.
This year, surprise yourself in little ways and big ways. Don’t wait on no one to make you happy. By that bag you’ve been eyeing. Withdraw that money and eat what you’ve been craving. Money will always come but that craving might never come again. This isn’t to say you should make bad financial decisions, no. Be financially responsible but also spoil yourself rotten. How you’d do that? That’s up to you.
The whole point is, we aren’t getting any younger and as we age, the responsibilities keep mounting up. So why not have fun and do all the things you wish to do while you still can and have the time. This year is for you. Focus on you and make yourself as happy as possible.
