What words of encouragement could you offer yourself in hindsight knowing what you know now? Can you apply those words today in any way? Does it shift the way you see your future unfolding? ✨I recently read an excerpt from my journal from nine years ago, where my heart ached for wanting to get a project where I could have a steady, not fleeting, job doing what I loved on set every day after being out here for over a decade. The funny thing was that one year later I booked the job(s) that would change my life, but I obviously didn’t know that then. There were absolute moments within that year of waiting where I continued to work, sleeplessly studying, hustling, working in other fields to make money and getting so close to booking jobs that never happened leaving me feeling discouraged repeatedly. The little 5 year old with a dream wanted to hold on, but my 25 year old self was tired.. 🙂 I smiled because I felt the desperation through my words and the deep craving for my passion, and I wanted to give younger me a hug- If she ONLY KNEW. And I wanted to tell her how PROUD I was of her for not giving up. Seeing this made me take a look at my life today and the things that I desire that I feel aren’t where I want them to be, and reframe it to realize in one, four, even ten years from now I could look back to this moment and say “Girl, don’t give up, if you ONLY KNEW.” 🥰 ✨What areas of your life can you offer the younger, vulnerable, visionary YOU some more love today? How can you use your past experiences to enhance the way you see your future developing? Does it change the way you wish to show up and support yourself today?✨🙏🏼
