Bear in mind that at the end of the day the only person who's happiness you need to be concerned about, and that you have any control over, is the person staring back at you in the mirror. So do what make you happy and do it unapologetically. I regret a lot of things in this lifetime but enjoying it as I see fit is not-and never will be-one of them.
People will seldom agree with every choice you make, but you're the one living your life so why not LIVE it. Live to the absolute fullest and then live it some more. Am I telling you that you're always going to be happy and make the right choice? no. In fact you won't because that's what life is about, making the wrong choices to find the right choices that actually do make you happy. You have to make the most of it, you have to try to be happy day by day. A new thing I've started doing this year that has really helped is to keep a daily log of just one thing that makes me happy.
Do you know what the biggest thing that impedes your happiness is? YOU. Think about how many times you shut yourself down from fear. We all have fears and downfalls, what can we say though were only human. We fear failure, rejection, judgment, missing out and so much more. Those fears can't run our lives though. Get rid of the fear of failure, because you're never truly failing until you stop trying. Get rid of the fear of rejection because guess what it happens, keep trying if it's what will truly make you happy. (In case you hadn't noticed I'm pretty much persistent till it kills me). Get rid of the fear of judgment because you do it to other people and other people are going to do it to you, but remember who's the one living your life? you. Lastly,get rid of the "FOMO" (ps I feel old due to the fact that I had to google that:)) but seriously, why are you going to waste your time doing something you don't actually want to do because it's what the rest of the crowd is doing. You don't need to why not go spend time doing something you know will make you happy instead.
Remember the person looking back at you in the mirror I was talking about earlier. Don't be so mean to yourself, encourage yourself even if others aren't. If you know you can do something tel yourself you can do it... and go do it! See yourself in a more positive light, if you need it stand in front of the mirror and practice positive self talk.
Just remember one thing, if something makes you happy...go for it. Don't waste time worrying about what others will think or tell yourself you're not good enough. If something or someone makes you happy. Take the risk.
"In happy moments praise God. In difficult moments seek God. In quiet moments trust God. In every moment seek God."
Sending lots of love and {Suzey} Sunshine your way... and all the happiness you could ever dream of....xoxo
