Let whoever think whatever while you keep getting better!
My whole entire life I have been so consumed with what other people have thought of me. My looks yes, but more than that it was “what did people think about me as a person?” Did they like me? Were they going to like me? Am I good enough? Funny enough? Smart enough? Oh man, just talking about it brings me back to a place and time when I found myself so full of anxiety and didn’t know why. THIS! This was why. All the constant worry of what other people were thinking of me was so consuming and had me at times not even knowing WHO I was because I would try to just conform to who I THOUGHT I needed to be to please other people or ensure that they would like me or even love me. I am so happy to report to you all that I let this worry go about a year after Mia was born. Only after I then spent that first year as a new mom trying to do and be ALL the things I thought new moms were suppose to do and be. Good Lord!!! Between social media, Pinterest and the craft mom at our kindermusic class who made EVERYTHING herself I was rocking myself in a ball at night. NO MORE! I declared I was good enough just as I was and not only was I already good but I was getting better! I was getting older, smarter and much more mindful of the person I truly was and she was good. Really good. I was a great wife, mother, daughter, friend and business owner. I was genuine, loving and caring. I was funny. Really funny 😂 and most importantly I was MYSELF! I loved who I was and since that revelation, I am happy to report I still love myself today. I have no more anxiety or worry of what other people think because Im just being me and I know that my heart is good and trying to mindfully and with complete intention make the best decisions for myself, my family, friends and my community every day. If you just be you and who you are meant to be you will only get better!
