“Be true to yourself, stay focused and stay you, take advice from other folks, use what you can, but never mind what is not for you. For the most part, trust yourself and believe in what you are doing.”
– Musiq Soulchild
It is so easy to allow your voice to be drowned out by those around you and to lose sight of your vision. This is something that I’ve found myself struggling with lately. I’ve found it difficult to stay true to who I am and not hold back in my daily interactions. It’s such a difficult balance to know when to push hard for something you’re passionate about and when to temper it to not alienate everyone around you. It’s a fine balance and I’m learning that going to the other extreme of not speaking up for fear of being stung is not the answer. No, you must fight for your voice to be heard, to stay true to yourself, and to trust your instincts. However, giving a voice to what you believe in doesn’t mean you have to talk over others or belittle an opinion that differs from your own.
The truth will set you free! Miss you and hope all is well dear 😊
