Outgrowing Yourself

Have you ever woke up and found that your old ways were no longer appealing to you? Or maybe you decided to make the conscientious decision to change? Sometimes we grow to be bigger than what we were going to be or where we thought we would stay (that is a message on its own!), and that’s okay. It is okay for your past (or even your present) to not fit your future. It is okay to want more than what you currently have, it is okay to dream bigger. Give yourself permission to outgrow your current place of comfort and reach for more.

It is a lesson that I, myself, had to learn. I allowed others to place me in a box and I turned around and placed myself in a box within their box. Then one day I woke up and the boxes no longer fitted me. I couldn’t see myself being happy when being there and even more important, I didn’t want to remain there. So I made the decision to step out the boxes and pursue me.
