Feeling Defeated? You’re Not Alone
It’s exhausting, isn’t it? You keep wondering, “Will this be the time it all works out?” You’ve tried so many times, poured your heart into everything, and sometimes—well, sometimes you just get let down. And man, it feels defeating, right?
On this topic, I consider myself an expert. Funny thing about being bad with authority—I’ve never been scared of taking on the risk of failing. For the record, I’m not numb to the heartbreak that comes with this. In my work life, it’s always been the fear of getting a “regular job” that’s pushed me to get back up and try again. We each have our reasons to keep going. Whatever it is for you, I encourage you to lean into it because the dreams you have are waiting for you to chase them.
You’re Doing Better Than You Think
This is where many of us abandon our dreams. We stop at the doorstep—sometimes moving forward, backward, or just feeling stuck, like maybe the universe or God is against us. But wherever you are right now, remember—you’re doing okay. And believe me, there’s nothing wrong with you.
Sometimes things don’t work out. Maybe it’s timing, maybe it’s luck, or maybe there’s a lesson you need to learn. But don’t linger too long in those feelings. No one’s out to get you, and sometimes people just aren’t great. That’s not a reflection of your worth. Adding shame to the mix doesn’t help anyone.
Keep Going—The Storm Will Pass
Wherever you are in your journey—whether it feels like the start or the end—just know you’re doing great. Uncertainty is a part of life. If everything were certain, the world wouldn’t be the place it is, would it?
Like every storm that passes, there’s rebuilding that follows. Your life works the same way. And there’s just as much of a chance that this will work out for you as anything else you’ve done.
The worst thing you could do is stay stuck. Love yourself enough to keep going, to keep doing the hard work, and to stay open to life’s possibilities. They’re out there, waiting for you.
