Believing in yourself

I sometimes ask myself:
Am I being true to myself? Or am I really liking what I really do? Did I really start up with an idea in my mind about ending up here?


I am sure this is not only applicable to me, whereas to many of us. If we are like most of the people then we probably aren’t being totally true to ourselves. So often it is that we end up doing what people expect from us, somewhere somehow loosing the track of the path we had chosen for ourselves. Maybe for parents, loved ones or just mere society, we jus give up.

What exactly do we want to do with our future? Not everyone has an answer. The reason we don’t is that when the desire comes we keep shooing it away. We feel it, we hear it calling, we know it’s there somewhere hidden in our unconscious mind. Because we know it that it might take too much work to convince everyone that we are not crazy enough to pursue such a dream and so we push it under the carpet.

We continue moving ahead with the same ol’ life secretly wishing for another way of life, something more fulfilling, something more meaningful perhaps or just something little more suited to our talents. Some people are luckier than the rest of us and they seem to know early on in life just what they want to do and they go ahead and pursue it. However if we are just the average, then we wont have the guts to have done this.

It doesn’t mean we can’t. We can start today doing more of what we love. Start now and find a way to incorporate all what makes you happier in your life. Start believing in yourself.
