I’m the kind of person that always thinks and worries about everything. Did I react correctly? Should I have talked more? Did anybody notice that I was really nervous? Skip that and be yourself!
- I’m worrying and thinking about everything. If it was the right choice or if I said the right thing.
- I’m worried that I’m missing chances on everything. Love. Life. Experiences. Work.
- I’m worried that destiny gave me hints or wanted to show me something and I missed it.
Worrying is wasting your time
But today I realized that it’s nonsense to think and worry so much. I’m just getting sick because of it. It wastes my time thinking negatively. Instead, I could be happy and think happy thoughts.
Life is beautiful and I’m wasting it by worrying about things that will probably not happen anyway or about things that already happen that I cannot change anymore.
Accept the things you cannot change and move on to the things you can!
I need to be myself and destiny (or whatever you think controls life) has it figured out already and knows what to do. I believe in something behind all this destiny and coincidences. Every religion and every person believes in something different. But there is something there that looks over the world and knows your life, will protect you and you just have to trust in it.
I believe that life happens for a reason. Everything happens for a reason.
And we don’t have to know the reason. We just need to believe that life has its own way to work itself out. So everything I can do is to be myself and enjoy life.
Take risks and opportunities life has for you and enjoy them!
You and I, only have one life to live. We only have this moment right now. And whatever we’re doing, we should do it with passion and completely dedicated.
“Existence wants you to be you”
Osho
Being able to just be yourself is the greatest gift in life!
So no more worries and thoughts about things that happened in the past. I can’t change them anyway so I will just make the best out of it.
I live every moment from my heart and by being myself. You should do that too. Accept yourself for being who you are. Don’t underestimate yourself and don’t put yourself down.
Live for yourself and do the things you want to do!
And if one time it doesn’t go as planned, you will be fine and you shouldn’t put yourself down for it.
One thing that kept me from being myself and accepting myself is I worried too much about what other people would think of me. This is total nonsense! What I figured out is: everyone thinks about oneself the whole time so they actually don’t think about you! They are too busy thinking about themselves and what others could think about them!
I recommend reading the book “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck” about it!
Accept yourself! With all your faults and good things!
Be honest with yourself and don’t play a role anymore.
Be yourself!
