Life can be so fucking complicated sometimes. Keep it simple. Run at your pace your way, and make sure your goals and dreams are your own, not what others think you should be aiming for or even what you think you should be aiming for but what actually, undeniably makes you happy.

There’s so much fucking expectation out there it’s easy to feel less than, not good enough, like you should be something other than who and what you already are. And fuck. That.

That doesn’t mean you can’t also look to improve. And that’s the great paradox… being happy with who and where you are right now in this moment, and still wanting to improve and be an even better version of yourself. Just don’t have that goal, that ambition, at the expense of your happiness right now.

Life goes by so fast. Too fast to be unhappy for any longer than is required. And it’s never actually required.
