Being you!

 I’ve been procrastinating, delaying and waiting to step out and become more.

I’ve made every excuse why I can’t chase my dreams and embrace my happiness..

But the truth is, I was only lying to myself.

Everything I’ve needed, all my fire and drive that I’ve been looking for…

It’s been there inside me all along.

I listened to the world too much when it told me I couldn’t, I wasn’t ready or that I would never make it.

It’s time for me to stop listening and start doing.

I’ve let my fear of failure hold me back for too long…

And it’s done nothing but cause me worry, anxiety and unhappiness.

I know I’ve failed, made mistakes and chose poorly in the past..

But I’m letting all that go and I’m moving forward.

I’m closing the door to what has been so that I can look forward to what can be.

Deep down, I’ve always known who I can be and what I’m capable of…

I’ve just never truly believed in myself the way that I should have.

And as hard as it is, scary as it may seem, I’m forcing myself to step out of my comfort zone and going through those doors I’ve always been afraid to enter.

I’ve learned that if I’m not scared, then I’m not dreaming big enough…

So, I’m frightened to death, and I’ve never felt more alive in my life.

I’m not letting excuses, fear or failure keep me from doing what I’ve always dreamed of doing.

This is my time and I’m not letting anyone or anything stop me anymore..

Least of all, myself.

I’m not going to keep standing still barely living anymore..

I’m playing all my cards because I’ve decided that I’m all in.

I’m all in on life, love and doing all the things I’ve always wanted to do.

I’ve been crawling and walking when I should have been flying all along..

So, I’m unfurling those wings I’ve been afraid to use for so long and I’m shootings for the stars.

And this time, I’m never looking back.
