PLUS SIZE DESIGNER: TAKE AND LEAVE 2017
The year is about to end, and of course, what would it be without our usual TAKE AND LEAVE list for 2017?
So basically, these are the things that I want to leave this 2017:
#1 Overthinking.
Yep. I said it. I was a perennial overthinker. Some time I think too much to the point that I get stuck there. I get caged and guess what happens? NOTHING.
It's just an endless cycle of torture and weirdness and the sad part is you get tricked that you are solving a problem --- but truth is you are not. YOU ARE JUST IN THE PROBLEM... not getting out of it.
So yeah, overthinking. YOU STAY IN 2017. NO MORE.
#2 My Ego
They say that a little ego is good for the soul, but I think they confuse it at times with assertion of self-worth.
Ego for me is the image that I make up for myself, while self-worth is simply the value that I already have right now way before I even recognize it.
My ego has been torturing me since the dawn of my existence and I am very happy to know that this year, it has died or at least I am able to identify it. That way, I know which one is really me and which one should really have to go.
#3 My Plan.
I love a good plan, but it becomes a bad one when I am punishing myself unnecessarily for not being able to manifest it at the moment I said so.
So, no more plans. Just dreams and goals and me trusting in the intelligence of the cosmos on when and how it should happy.
As for what I want to take with me for 2018:
#1 The gift of my own Divine Presence
I have been wanting to write this down for quite some time, but ladies, I have realized that it was only this year that I was able to learn to actually love my own company.
I know that I go on self-dates and all that jazz, but that moment in Recession coffee will change my life. I vow to always remember that moment because I can honestly say at that point, I do not want to be anywhere else in the world and be with anyone else too than in that cafe and with me.
#2 My new sense of self
My connection with my heart is stronger. I can hear her voice loud and clear now. I am very happy to announce that I am constantly asking my heart what makes it sing and follow that direction no matter what.
Life is all about what makes your heart sing.
#3 Allowing myself to be loved by the Universe
I will explain this further soon. But let's just say that I was able to discover how to just relax and open up like a flower and allow the Universe to just take care of me.
