I’m sure we have all heard, you become like the five people you spend your time with… Reflect on that for a second. Are those people rooting for you ? Growing up, my mom played on repeat, ” you will always be able to count your friends on one hand”. It stuck like glue and still holds true. Not everyone is your friend, that is a sacred title only deserving to people who deserve our love and energy.
I do not mean to brag when I say every friend I have in my corner is amazing. No I’m sorry they aren’t only amazing, but they inspire me in every way possible, daily. My sister molds young minds as a teacher, one friend left an unhealthy relationship to own her truth and she’s glowing in happiness. I have so many friends that are boss ass women in their workforce running things. One bestie is getting her Doctorate! While I also see so many kick ass women that are working while raising their kids. I can barely rally to take care of myself and my dog some days 🤣. It’s truly something I’m in awe of daily. How blessed I am to be surrounded with these amazing people?
As important as the people you have in your life are , it’s the content you surround yourself with as well. Are you scrolling social media comparing ? or are you looking at things that bring you creativity and inspiration. I had to carefully take time to evaluate who I was following and what message it was sending me vs the messages I needed to be seeing. Are you listening to your inner spirit telling you what brings you joy? DO THAT! If you can take one small step every day to being positive and finding your joy, you’re doing something right. Be kind to yourself today ❤️
