I’m taking today to take a look back on where I was just a month ago. I’d been working in a cafe 5 days a week, desperately trying to keep a hold of the things that make me me. My biggest fear was ‘losing my spark’, to a corporate world and forgetting all of the things I love to do; I was scared I’d lose sight of the real end goal and settle for a job that didn’t give me the validation and fufillment I craved.
So, at the end of the month, I woke up and decided enough was enough and- in true me fashion- left out the front door and never went back. That was the day I finally, for the first time, believed in myself and put myself first. That’s the day I gave myself no choice but to chase my dream.
And I never looked back. Not for a second. I haven’t stopped since the day I left, and I’ve never been happier.
I have so, so much more to achieve, but as I reflect on how the last 30 days have been, I can say I’m genuinely so proud of how far I’ve come. I’m most proud of myself for finally understanding my worth.
If you’re still reading this and you have a dream, remember that being ready isn’t a feeling: it’s a CHOICE. Betting on yourself is the best thing you can do. Never settle for less and always remember your worth.
I believe in you!
