The Inability That Made Me The Person I Am Today
I was not perfect in anything I have ever done.
I did not write every day, did not work out every day, I didn’t even love my partner or myself every single day.
I was not always happy, did not always follow the advice I gave, and sometimes struggled just to get out of bed in the morning.
But, in spite of all of that, I will always got back up.
At first, this was a struggle.
It was so hard to fight day after day, and my battles weren’t even that tough, but the countless of tips on success, happiness and productivity kept fluttering in my head like little demons that would never let me rest.
Every time I tried to do anything there would be at least 5 contradicting ideas, followed by about a dozen ‘shoulds’ and it would always end with me feeling like I didn’t make the right choice.
I fought the world to reach success, tried so hard to work, to grind to be someone special to myself, my partner and my family, and no matter what I did I could not seem to get closer to this goal.
It seemed like an endless war.
The more I fought. the more stressed I became and the further I felt from who I was.
