♡A little broken but I know I can pick myself up♡

This year seemed to be going great, then suddenly it all started to filter between my hands like sand. I am taking a 3 month journey to self discover, to reflect on my bad habits, to grow, to learn, and to live life to its fullest.

#growwithme #nevergiveup

What I know about myself, I am not one to quit on anything, it takes a really long time for me to even realize that i should. I self-sabotage because i am vulnerable and a bit insecure. I want to spend more time outdoors exploring, having fun in the sun, and being with friends and family.

#summer #itsokaytobesensitive #newme

I also need to get a good hold of where I want life to go, to take me, I want a good paying job but I am very picky, I dont have a lot of schooling, I have an Associates in Art and Design, I graduated! But life just didnt seem to fall into place like I thought it would. Now I have so much debt for a degree that I dont even know what to do with anymore.

#20something #whatsnext

All I know right now is I'm moving in with my best friend, we are gonna be trying new things and going new places together. And I am super excited! Life is taking me in a whole different direction than where i thought it was going this year, and thats ok♡

Beginning a journey of self-discovery can be challenging yet rewarding. Many face moments where life feels overwhelming, leading to feelings of insecurity and doubt. However, recognizing these feelings is the first step toward growth. During this time, it’s important to engage in activities that promote mental and physical well-being. Exploring the outdoors allows for connection with nature and reduces stress. Additionally, surrounding oneself with supportive friends and family encourages a sense of belonging and motivation. Financial concerns often accompany the search for a fulfilling career, especially for those with degrees that don’t align with immediate job opportunities. Understanding your unique skills and interests can help direct your job search, making it more fulfilling. Consider seeking mentorship or career coaching to clarify your career goals. Always remember to celebrate small victories along the way; progress is progress, no matter how small. Ultimately, self-care, setting realistic goals, and maintaining a positive mindset can transform your outlook and life path. Embrace the journey, and don’t hesitate to seek help when needed. It's okay to take your time and explore various avenues until you find what works best for you.
