"Who do you think you are to think that way?" - A Mentor Who Crossed Paths With The Optimistic Eccentric
That's right, who are we to place judgement on ourselves, and not see ourselves worthy or capable of something?
Was it the environment we are in...the people that we are with...or just our general perception of things that influenced us to feel or think this way?
The greatest enemy...is simply ourselves.
After realizing shortcomings, facing failures in life, and getting ideas, emotions and actions dismissed from people we are conveying them to, we can get rather dissatisfied with certain aspects of ourselves, undermine our self-worth, and overlook value behind all the efforts that we have invested on something or someone.
But remember, we are worthy of every little investment we placed on something or someone, and we are capable of achieving things that we wouldn't even imagine of achieving. Just because we're facing something that seems unattainable (or hard to bend and work together towards a common space...in terms of people), doesn't mean that it will be definitively unattainable, or will definitively stay a certain way.
Life is unexpected, but so is your potential to add value to your life and to the lives of others.
When you trust yourself and the whole process as you charge head on to your life's aspirations, you start to go easier on yourself, to realize the little, beautiful things in life, and to meet new opportunities and individuals that just make you feel understood, blessed and wonderful.
Do what you aspire to do, give every opportunity a shot and take the leap of faith, in simply one life.
