Keep Moving Forward

Moving forward, letting go, taking the next step, it’s all hard. Nothing about it is easy, it’s unknown, it’s intimidating.


I recently have been going through lots of big changes in my life. Career changes, moving to two different major cities, letting go of a long term relationship. Non of which have been easy. The thing that kept me moving forward, and allowed me to take the next step was trusting in myself, trusting that there is somewhere I have to go, someone I have to meet, something I have to experience, that something bigger is waiting out there for me.


I was faced with what was no longer serving me, who was no longer serving me, how I was no longer serving myself. I discovered how my bad habits that were comfortable and tolerable in my other environments weren’t serving me in my new ones. I was forced to slow down. I was forced to look inwards and answer the harder questions. I was faced with reality, that if I was seeking change for myself, it wasn't going to come from something, someone or somewhere. It was going to have to come from me. It was time to step into my self-worth that my previous environments were robbing me of.


I am now faced with taking two steps back, leaving a city that was meant to be a catalyst for change that ended up being a catalyst for disaster, which made me slow down. I am leaving this new city with the knowledge of what I don’t want, what I don’t want to do, and sadly who I don’t want to be. This city is forcing me to take another step forward, and to some, and to myself at times, looks like taking two steps backwards.


However anytime you are making a change, it is always a step forward, a new lesson to be learned, a new experience.


I still believe there is something bigger out there for me and this was a hard way of making sure I get there.


Keep believing in yourself. Don’t give up. Listen to your heart. Lean into your friends and family. Keep moving forward.


xoxo,

Becca Girl
