I just realised how peaceful our lives can be if we learn to focus on what matters the most. You know that stage in life where you just stop stressing over unnecessary things....I just officially found my self there.
Before now, I use to overthink everything- relationships, people's opinions and even how far others have gone in life compared to me. But I am in my maturity stage ,I have realized peace is more important than proving a point. So here are the 3 things I have officially outgrown
-
Forcing Relationships I've learned that sometimes, peace comes from walking away, not holding on. I will walk away from negative energy, if I have to beg for your attention, loyalty and respect - then it's no longer worth it . Relationship or friendship should flow naturally.
-
Competing With My Peers.
I no longer try to keep up with anyone. I move at my own pace. Competition is a trap. Instead of competing, I would rather clap for others and focus on becoming the better version of myself. Everyone is running a different race, and my timeline is mine along
3.People’s Opinions
Before now I was always worried about what people would say . But presently I've made peace with being misunderstood as long as I'm true to myself. People's opinions doesn't pay bills soe it doesn't bother me.
Indeed growth is such a beautiful thing, I started realizing that peace of mind, self-love and authenticity are far more valuable than trying to please everyone.
So if you’re still struggling with “what will people say” or trying to fit in — take this from me, your peace is too expensive to lose over people's opinions.
