Day 2 / 100 Days to More ~

It’s scary to be who you’re meant to be in this day and age.  It certainly is hard to be your real self because you’re vulnerable to thoughts, judgement, ostracization, and people being just plain ol’ mean.  Let’s be honest, no wants that petty bologna in our lives.  We want peace and joy even if we’re being fake.  However, we were made for more than other people’s snotty comments and verdict finding.  This is your life, and you must be able to account for it as no one else will stand in your place when the times comes. Conversations, being authentic, and owning who you are (good, bad, and really ugly parts) takes bravery, courage.  Your weakest moments, the secrets only God knows, what makes you laugh, what makes you cry, what your dreams are, what you desire most…sharing your story takes guts, but guess what, you’re no ordinary person.  You are a child of the utmost High.  Your strength at your most dire times comes from God, and you can do all things through Him. 

It only takes one person to start a sharing journey of more.  Like a domino effect, once you declare who you fundamentally are, others will follow.  Life is too short to never start letting the rest of the world see the real you…the imperfectly perfect you.  Be brave because those that mind don’t matter and those that matter don’t mind the real you.  People want more!  People don’t want to hear the success stories, people want to hear the struggles and the failures and how you overcame them or how you need help to breakthrough. 

Action:  Start today defining who you are (start small with a baby step) and be transparent with how you think, how you feel, a hardship you’re facing, and/or what you want with your life.  Friend, if you want more out of life, than you must be willing to give more of the real you.
