I watch a lot of influencers and inspirational speakers talking about pushing yourself to excellence, bettering yourself, setting and achieving goals, prospering, getting out of your comfort zone in order to succeed... I am simply not this hungry for winning. I want a cozy, simple, quiet life. Of course I do believe a reasonable dose of discipline and ambition are needed to be happy and enjoy life, but...
Are we really all lions? Some of us surely are. But should all the puppies and kittens be taught aggression? This doesn't make sense to me. Not everybody is a go getter. And they don't need to be in order to be fulfilled and satisfied. There are states in between total letting go and sharp engagement. These are called everyday life. Let us enjoy life, live in harmony and in agreement with ourselves. This world creates enough stresses already not to be taught by coaches and "spiritual" speakers that we all should strive for excellence and perfecting ourselves all the time. It is the moment to teach that we are great the way we are and to accept our lameness. If you are a fighter, fine. Go get your trophy. I am not. I am an everyday woman who seeks some piece of mind in the cruel world. No need to make things harder for myself. For once, I want someone to tell me: it's fine. Take it easy girl. You go and be kind to yourself. This is what I want to tell all of you as the New Year approaches: there is no other perfect you than you. Let it be. And go waste some time ;)
