Learning To Have It All

Photo by Valentina Conde

I know you have dreams inside of you. In fact, I am willing to bet that you have such BIG dreams inside of you that if they actually came true, it might even scare you. Unfortunately, we are taught somewhere along the line that we cannot have everything we desire when it comes family, career, hobbies, finances, relationships…insert your biggest desires here. We adopted the belief that the “all” is unattainable.

That is a myth. You actually can have it all. ⁣

I believed for many years that the only way I could have it all was to do it all and be it all. That is how many of us live our lives, even though we know that is not sustainable or attainable, yet we try to make it work. Then when we are overwhelmed, burned out, and feeling lost leading to a feeling of defeat, fading dreams, and clouded vision.

What I learned when I came to this place is that my perspective was off. I was focused on doing the all and having it all on my own energy and all right now when the answer was that I could have it all…just not all right now!

The idea that we have to do it all now or we will miss all opportunities, is a mind trap.

There are steps and stages to “getting it all”. It’s a process and you have to be willing to go through the process, be patient, be confident, and persevere. Focusing on what matters the most at this point in time, and focus energy there until the time comes to move forward or move on. This is when you will see all of your dreams come to fruition!
