Hey guys,
I would like to share with you some thoughts, that i have watched in a german video. Have tried to write it, as good as i can, in english and in my own words.
We believe in life, it's always about being the best version of ourselves. But we do not realize that we are actually resisting it all the time. We keep refusing to be the best version of ourselves. Actually we know, you know exactly what you want, you know exactly where it is, you know exactly what you have to do for it, but you defend against it. Actually you wanted something as a child and you have fetched it. You did not think about it, you had creativity, you dreamed about it and if you wanted it, you dived into action, you just did it. You lost yourself in time, you had fun, no matter what you sat on and you enjoyed it and did not think about it. But there were things, in which people came and said: not like that, leave it, do not do that, stop it. And what happened then, you learned to fight against being yourself, you learned to stop being yourself. And gradually you grow up and at some point you defend yourself against everything, you resist to be successfully. What happens, for example, when you start to dream, what happens when you think about it and say that's what I want. And you meet other people, or maybe people there are already in you live, who advise you against it, with sentences like: that's not possible, that does not work anyway or what are you talking about. Just people who are, with you, against to be the best version of yourself. As soon as you say: You know what I shit on it, I do my thing now, I pull through, I get me what I want, I get this best version of me and on the way I'm happy. What happens then, all these eyes are on you, they look at you and think: What happened to him, what happened to her, what's going on, are you not ashamed? But what are you should be ashamed of? that you pull your own thing through?Or follow your dreams? I don't think so. Being yourself usually means standing against the norms of our present time.
Best greetings!
