If striving for wholeness means diminishing your
competition, then your competition wasn’t much to begin with (D.J.Trump) This
statement struck me for a bit because many a times I have been told that I
overdo things that I stand out too much and I’m often asked why I work so
hard? The thing is I have never felt any
of these statements were true as, I have a vision of who I am and where I am going
with my life. I don’t bother competing with anyone I have the mental picture of
where I want to be and that is my motivation. What others are doing is
irrelevant to me I have my standard and I will stick to it regardless of
everyone else’s progress.
My concern is
reaching my dreams and that means achieving wholeness: whatever I do I don’t
stagnate, I don’t become complacent, I don’t pretend that 50% is enough,
whether I am giving or receiving. So I do things the best way I know how and
that is with 100% of me, if I stand out so be it but I will not drop the bar
just to fit in. Being true to yourself is so necessary if you want to be happy
in life. You need to know yourself and be yourself, many times in my life the
real me wouldn’t fit in and I would pretend to be someone else and It only made
me miserable, It is very scary discovering who you really are I spent a lot of
time people pleasing in my life and as such I never really was the real me and
when I discovered who the real me was I wasn’t sure she would make in the real
world (sigh and laughter as she seems to be just fine).
So don’t drop your bar to please others or to fit in if your
dreams are big go with them block out society and their opinions (only in a
positive way don’t isolate yourself from the world). But be yourself see the
world from your eyes and don’t easily be swayed always hold your grounds.
Another thing is always remember that opinions are just that opinions they
should never define you or alarm you. Stand fast in your beliefs and know that
no one can make you do what you really don’t want to do. This is your life don’t
be afraid to live it.
