Never Let Anyone’s Opinions Define Who You Truly Are

It all begins as a child when society and the school system raise us to be clones who think and behave similarly. When you try to differentiate yourself from others and do things in your own way, social pressure is intense. You’re pulled back from your dreams through criticism and fear. When you start to question everything — the principles and habits around you — you can start creating your own reality.

A visualization is a Powerful Tool

I always traveled to magical places, like Alice in Wonderland, when I was a child. I was always dreaming and doing magical things. Everything was possible; I could be anyone and do anything. I thought only superstition was a reason for keeping things to myself. However, as time went by, I noticed that issues got more complicated when I said them aloud.

Too many opinions and too many instructions can make you feel confused. There are rules and different beliefs about everything, and you don’t always question why things are a certain way. This system can quickly bury you under various responsibilities if you’re not conscious of what you do.

This talent for creating and imagining that you had strongest as a child is still living inside you. You can get easily distracted and follow things that can never bring you happiness and contentment. Learn to use this skill efficiently, and it can direct you out of any challenges you face into a life you want to live.

Learn To Listen To Your Inner Voice

You have this dream inside you, something you’re passionate about pursuing, or a talent you want to make your profession. You had a vision that your loved ones took down with their doubt; you had a dream that your professor crushed at the school or a passion that one mistake smashed into pieces. Only one lousy comment can prevent you from achieving your true desires and dreams.

Build-in silence what you want to achieve. You don’t need anyone else’s approval on your way besides that inner determination and voice that directs you on the journey that you have been designed to experience. When you’re going too fast, conflicts may emerge. Take a step back, and search for the following action from your inner.

When you start listening to yourself, things significantly change into seeing what you truly want from life. Stop listening to everyone else around you, guiding you in the wrong direction. Remember what someone once said about you can never define who you are.

With love,
Jenna
