✨ Today's Reminder: I Don’t Have to Rush ✨
I love that these show up when they do
This morning I found myself in a very old pattern,
Pushing through anxiety, because I was going to do something new.
Trying to “be okay” even when I wasn’t.
Putting pressure on myself to do more, be more, cope better.
All while my nervous system was quietly saying, “Please, slow down.”
Then I saw today’s angel message, and it hit me deeply:
“Be patient with both yourself and others.
Don’t rush. Instead, take steady but sure steps forward. You’ll get there.”
And I realised something…
I'm trying to soften a lifelong pattern of showing up, keeping up, holding it all together.
But when I needed to show myself more love than usual, I did the opposite.
Not because I’m failing.
But because that pattern runs deep.
And it takes time, gentleness, and awareness to shift it.
So today, I’m not asking myself to be motivated.
I’m not asking myself to figure it all out.
I’m just asking myself to breathe.
To show up in slow, steady, soul-aligned ways.
And that’s enough.
That’s more than enough.
If motivation feels heavy right now, more like pressure instead of inspiration, you’re not doing anything wrong.
You’re just carrying a lot.
And maybe, for once, you’re being called to honour your energy instead of pushing through it.
It’s okay to slow down.
It’s okay to move gently.
Steady steps are still steps forward.
And they do count.
