Throughout our life, we are constantly told that one day you will find yourself and then everything will be okay. To be honest, our lives are always changing. New beginnings, challenges, and set backs are constantly brought into our lives. Instead of saying "I found myself" say "no, I created myself."
YOU WERE NOT FOUND, BUT CREATED
The person you are today is not someone who was lost and needed to be found, but instead someone who was shaped by your experiences. Everything that you have gone through, and the way you have handled every situation has simply shaped your character. Your resilience, strength, and creativity that you embody have developed through years of growth, experiences, and maturity.
ADMIT IT, WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES AND THAT'S OKAY
Yes, in life we make mistakes. We are human. But with every mistake, comes a lesson. And with that lesson comes learning new perspectives, and ways of thinking. Personally, I think that learning is the best thing for us. Through our mistakes, we can learn what we want to do with our lives, and through our mistakes, we can inspire others.
YOU ARE A PIECE OF ART
Creating yourself is like creating a lifetime work of art. When creating your art piece, don't be too hard on yourself. In life, we are our biggest critics. Instead of breaking yourself down, lift yourself up. By making simple mistakes, we learn to accept ourselves for who we are and who we want to become.
KNOW YOUR WORTH
By creating yourself, you understand the time and commitment you took to do this. Creating yourself is not easy, and takes time. In fact, every day we are adding another piece to the final puzzle.
"Don't think of your life as a period, but as a comma." - Barack Obama.
You create yourself, and also your legacy.
