If You're Going To Grow, Grow For Yourself

By Evan Sanders


When we focus on being the best person we can be, we let go of the pressure and expectation of what others think we should be.

In our modern world, we have a inclination to believe that we always have to be something more.

We always have to be funnier, wealthier, skinnier, fitter, and everything else in the book. All of these things make us believe that we aren't good enough at all and that is the farthest thing from the truth. The truth is, we all have unique gifts that we were given and we just need to uncover ourselves from the endless stories we have been fed to truly see those gifts. If we fail to take off our masks, no one will ever truly see us for who we are.

It's a lot easier and far more fun in the end to be exactly who you are without any apologies.

If you are going to head down the road of personal development, you really have to take one thing into mind. You have to understand why you are doing it. If you are doing it for someone else, you are probably going to fail. But if you do it for yourself because you see something more for yourself, you will eventually build something you can be incredibly proud of.

The problem is most people end up diving into personal development for other people and don't end up believing in what they are doing. Without some significant amounts of belief, you will end up giving up time and time again because your reasons for doing it aren't strong enough. The worst case scenario is that you give up on yourself and you end up resenting the other person who caused you to do it.

Be appreciative for what you have in your life and who is currently surrounding you. Then, if you want something different for yourself, then dive into a journey that could help you create something magnificent. But do it for yourself. Do it to make yourself proud. Do it so you can love yourself just that much more.

In the end, if we stay true to our own paths and believe in ourselves, we are truly capable of anything.
