Why I’m glad I didn’t start sooner

“You’ll look back in 5 years and wish you had started now.”

Think about where you were 5 years ago today and ask yourself these 3 questions.

  • Was my mindset negative or positive?
  • Have I gone through experiences since then that have had a large impact on the way I think?
  • Was I happier then than I am now?

I imagine you’ve had some sort of event happen in the past 5 years that challenged you to grow into who you are now, or who you’re trying to become. I mean, we all went through the covid era, right? It wasn’t just me? Hopefully you’re in a happier place now and hopefully you’ve grown as a person.

Now think about something you’ve always wanted to try. Would you rather give it a try with a negative mindset, fearing you’ll fail or worried about what people will think of you? OR would you rather try with a positive mindset and be open minded that you could potentially fail and learn from it?

I’m choosing the latter.

If I would have started a blog 5 years ago who knows what things I would’ve talked about. I know 2 things for sure; I wouldn’t have had a positive mindset and I definitely wouldn’t have been consistent. Fast forward to now, I have my own little family (an amazing fiancé and the cutest daughter), I actually have goals (short term and long term), and the growth is obvious to everyone who knows me on a personal level. I have confidence that I haven’t ever had! I feel healthy and beautiful and important. Call me crazy but I’m so glad things took time to happen for me so I could learn along the way, because where I am now is exactly where I need to be.
