The pain you experience is what makes you change and grow as a person.

For better or for worse, thats the choice you make.

Reflect on these moments.

Then let go of the past, simply because it doesnt belong in your future.

Rather, take the lessons with you as you move on with your life.

I lost myself trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life.

I lost myself when I was younger and trying to figure out who I was and what I wanted.

I struggled with making long-term decisions which would greatly impact my life five to 10 years down the road.

The possibilities were endless, but the choices felt permanent.

While this is true, I learned overtime that no decision is the wrong one.

If you make a mistake and fail, thats okaylive and learn.

If you decide to change course over time, thats okay too.

I lost myself when I took a leap of faith to pursue my dreams.

Through it all, I built momentum, confidence, and resilience.

Again, Ive grown and Ive changed.

And I can only set sights to the future and work on becoming an even better version of myself.

I lost myself when I put myself out there for the first time.

I lost myself when I landed in this new and incredibly confusing territory.

I lost myself through self-doubt and overthinking, when I was unable to truly trust my own feelings.

I lost myself when I lost you, because you were my closest companion for a period of time.

I lost myself as I struggled with myself, hurting you in the process.

On the bright side, I learn something new every time.

The greatest change it’s crucial that you make is your change in mentality.

And the only person holding you back is yourself.

So, let go of striving for perfection, because it doesnt exist.

Let go of guilt, shame, and self-blame.

Let go of the emotions that cloud your judgement.

Let go of the fear thats holding you back.

Let go of the negative self-talk and disheartening stories you tell yourself.

Let go of jobs and people that arent a good fit.

Trust your gut and dont look back.
