How To Be Your Best Self

22/07/2021

I found this post I shared on LinkedIn two years ago and I wanted to share it here too:

When was the last time you met one of your heroes? Or someone who truly inspires you?

I met mine on Friday. Jojo Moyes is my absolute favorite author. Aside from her writing which makes readers laugh and cry and think about the world completely differently - she has the most inspirational work ethic.

You may know her from her books that have been translated into 25+ languages, read more than 20 Million times, and adapted into Hollywood films.

Sounds glamorous, huh? ...but there was a whole journey that got her there:

🚫 The first 3 books she wrote were rejected for publishing.

🚫 She didn’t give up and wrote a 4th book, which she was able to get published.

⭐️ Finally she had her first book out there! She continued writing and 6 more of her books were published - but none of them did very well.

🌟 It wasn’t until the 8th book that she had a bestseller.

Imagine how many years of writing it took her to be successful. Imagine if she would have given up from a little, or a even a lot of rejection.

Very successful people all have one thing in common - they never ever give up!✨

It’s that simple.

Usually doesn’t feel like it in the moment but if you zoom out and look at the big picture, that’s how it works.

Don’t make excuses for people or overthink or spend your time wondering, because all of that is telling you he’s 👏🏼 just 👏🏼 not 👏🏼 that 👏🏼 into 👏🏼 you 👏🏼.
(Sorry!) ❤️

You don’t start deserving love from yourself or anyone else at a specific point. You are worthy of love just by existing!

Having an unconditionally loving and accepting relationship with yourself is the kindest thing you can do for yourself and even for those are around you.

Yes, try to be great, but love yourself even when you’re not.

First of all...
I miss working and chilling in summer clothes. Now I dress like a snowman every day in my home office 🥺☃️ Who’s with me? 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️

Now that we’ve covered that...
I like this picture because it was right before my Intermediate Statistics (😫) final exam! The last test I had to take before getting into my program at Harvard, which would also determine if I would get in. And let me tell you, the odds were not in my favor.

I didn’t know if or how I would pass that test. But I tried my very best and somehow I succeeded! I’m reminded of a quote when I think about this time:

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.”

Just remember this whenever you’re faced with a big challenge. Think about all of the things you’ve overcome that are now long in the past. Things that used to be mountains looming in front of you. Take it one step at a time, do your best, and before you know it, you will have overcome it. Impossible doesn’t exist.

And when you are scared, you are growing. Feel the fear, embrace it, and consume it, don’t let it consume you. Because the best thing about fear is:
exposure leads to desensitization.

The more you face your fears the more you overcome them and grow. And I believe every challenging situation that enters our lives is there for us to learn from. Listen to what your life is trying to teach you. Learn the lessons and they will prepare you for your future.

A quick and helpful guide ❤️

Happiness is a mindset, not a place. ☀️

With the right energy, you could be home having the time of your life, and with the wrong energy, you could be in the most beautiful exotic place, but miserable.

The goal is to create that feeling inside of you. That feeling of joy, excitement, and peace.

Then wherever you go, you bring that with you. Whether you’re going to work, to have fun - you can light it all up from within. And conversely it can all be dismal and grey.

So create the right energy with yourself and in your close relationships, to reach your paradise no matter where you are ✨

If you know what I’m talking about but don’t know how to achieve it - let’s talk 🙌🏼🙌🏼

“Sometimes you have to get knocked down lower than you have ever been, to stand up taller than you ever were.”

“After the hurricane comes the rainbow.”

“No pain, no gain.”
.. however you put it - hard work, difficult moments in life, all the challenges, these are the things that help us rise up and grow! 🌟

We should talk if you -

- are in a relationship that isn’t reaching its full potential
- can’t seem to find the type of relationship you want
- know you could be happier but don’t know how to get there
- want to discuss a transition in your life
- recently moved countries
- aren’t happy in your job and looking for a change

Looking forward to hearing from you and creating positive transformations together! ✨✨

Every person has the power to become the very best version of themselves.
