I want to offer you the opportunity to shift back into your power — the power of your perspective. You see, it can be so easy to focus on the "bad" while simultaneously waiting for something or someone to make it good again. The reality is that with a simple shift in perspective, you don't have to wait. You can turn your head ever so slightly to reveal something new. And when you turn, you get to see that you still have life and many good things and beautiful people right now, in the midst of disappointment. - Kris Lacy

Imagine being divinely created by the same Entity that formed the Sun, the stars, and the moon and STILL being pressed about someone else's purpose. It's an unfulfilling existence and quite frankly, a waste of time and talent. Why chase something that isn't yours? Ride in your lane. Own the road. - MeShae' Prophet

Consistency doesn't mean that you have the same amount of progress every single day or week. Consistency means that you give the same amount of effort and keep going.

Bill Gates is credited for saying, "Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in 10 years."

A bar, right?!

In my humble opinion, I believe many people overestimate what they can do in 3 months and underestimate what they can do in 1 year.

Give yourself the time and grace to see it through.

It's up to us to figure out our signs by learning how to be in tune with our bodies – they will always let us know. In my opinion, self-awareness is one trait that we can control in order to make us better creators, contributors, and members of society. Let's do a better job of giving ourselves a little more grace. Remember, your purpose is so big, but there's no need to feel pressured by it. It's designed just for you.
