Why Not You?

Why not you? Why wouldn’t you have the life you dream of? Why wouldn’t you have a fulfilling career? Why wouldn’t you be happy to get up every morning and be excited about your day?

I’ve always felt uncomfortable in my day jobs, and I’ve resented them for as long as I can remember.

But I really reached a peak in 2021. After dreaming my whole life of working in the film industry, I finally got a foot in the door, only to realize that this was not going to be a healthy path for me, at least not with that position and at that moment in time.

At that point, it had been three years since I had my first spiritual awakening, and I was getting itchy about doing something more fulfilling. Once I understood that my purpose was to share stories to help others overcome their own challenges, and create the life they want to live, I couldn’t afford to wait any longer. I had to start telling stories right away, and it was definitely not going to happen that fast with filmmaking. This is why I turned to YouTube and blogging, these are platforms that allow me to get my stories out any time of the day, and as often as I want.

At the same time, I realized that I was allowed to have a fulfilling career, and I was allowed to reclaim my time and energy. This is how I came to create my own business. I realized that I could create a career I was truly excited about, by putting together everything I already loved doing, and everything I was dreaming of doing next. Being of service, helping others, videomaking, writing, storytelling… I get to use and learn all those skills in my new career!

Once I gave myself permission to be happy and got the ball going, I decided nothing was going to stop me. Fast forward to today, I spent 2022 telling stories and helping people with their own stories, goals, and dreams.

Today I consider myself successful. I do what I want to do. And I am on my way to see my wildest dreams come true. All it took was to open myself to something new and follow through with the messages and nudges I received along the way.

Give yourself permission to be successful, to love yourself, to love the world, and to be yourself. Get out of your own way by destroying your own limiting beliefs and negative self-talk. They’re not serving you, they’re only holding you back from living a happy and aligned life!

So why not you? Do you think you' don’t deserve to enjoy yourself at work? Do you think you’re not allowed to make more money? Do you think there already are too many people doing what you love and there is no space for you?

I’ve been there, and it’s really not a fun place to be at. The problem is that you believe the stories you tell yourself, and all day long you’re telling stories that are holding you back in fear, instead of encouraging you to move forward with your dreams.

The stories you tell yourself every day become your reality, so why not shift those stories to ones of success and prosperity? You can’t be anything else but what you perceive yourself to be. Don’t underestimate the power of storytelling and shifting your perception. Write a new story for your life. Write a story in which you get to do, be, and have everything you ever wanted. Because it’s possible.

I challenge you to write a story of what your life could look like this time next year if you decide to start listening to your intuition and follow your dreams through 2023. Do it. And let me know how it goes ;)
