It was about time for me to finally move on. For the longest amount of time, I have been stuck in the same place wondering about life and what would happen if I were to do this or that. There are too many options out there, but there is only one me.
It has been very hard--I won't lie--to step out of my comfort zone and finally put myself out there in the world. Little by little, I have accomplished one thing: Stop dwelling in the past. I have this tendency to always regret every decision I make and replay all those failed scenarios thinking about how I could easily have avoided some mistakes. I seldom say this, but I am proud of myself.
BUT...lets take a step back. These are the five events
Second, I have stopped doubting myself. By doubting yourself, you become your own obstacle, which is preventing you from getting what you want. You know some people may say it is impossible, but you have to prove them wrong. The only time failure is acceptable is when you have given 100% of yourself and couldn't have done anything else to change your fate.
Third, it is important to plan ahead and manage your time--yes, this is me procrastinating again. Many people say that time is something that you cannot get back, so you have to take advantage of it. By the way, I still need to work on this; it is not easy to keep up with your routine. However, the only one who has to power to do it is you.
Fourth, treat yourself. Go out and do the things you enjoy and love. Pay attention to your surroundings and share with others. Do whatever makes you happy and with no regrets.
Last but not least, stop looking for validation from others. You don't need it. The only person whose approval you should be looking for is yours. You are the one in charge and the one who decides whether something is good or not. Trust time.
Everything happens for a reason, and if something has not happened yet, then it is not the time. You just have to wait for it; it will come when you are least expecting it. When you start making some progress, you will start seeing the change.
In addition, I keep trying to improve myself, learn new things, and get over my fears. Now it is time to grow up and become an adult. I just have to learn to live without fear. I have to build my own path and follow my destiny, even though I don't know where it will lead me.
I have to forget about my past, live in the present, and do not worry that much about the future. I need to fight for what I want and hold onto my beliefs; and don't let anyone tell me I can't do something that seems impossible.
