The biggest thing I have learned on my journey towards a better life was the realization that I already had that better life. I already had a lot of the things I wanted within me and around me.
I used to be obsessed with being given opportunities. I would work so hard and would often say, “All I need to do is get in the door and I will be good! They’ll naturally see how much I have to give!”
I started to realize that maybe I don’t need the room. Maybe I don’t need for everyone to see how amazing I am and how much I have to offer. Maybe, it is enough that I know these things for myself.
I think it’s time to realize that it is those who don’t see us who are at a serious loss. Just being us is extraordinary. We have so many opportunities that are aligned and attainable just by being us.
A great deal of the things we are seeking are things already within us. I know I always strive to be competent, intelligent, successful and a whole host of other things. In chasing these things, I couldn’t see that I embodied each one of these things already.
I really don’t see the need to worry about much anymore.
I still want to give my best and grow in the places I want to grow, but I am truly happy with where I am and who I am. I have such an amazing level of abundance just being here and trying my best.
I don’t need a room. I just need me.
