Why You Don’t Need To Give A F*ck

There was a time when I cared about literally everything and it was absolutely exhausting. Caring about everything people said, did and thought was a complete waste of time. All of that time and energy I spent on them could have been used on me and creating a life that I love — so that’s what I did.

I had to carry out a “life detox” which consisting of me assessing who, what and where was no longer serving me and eliminating them from my life. “Friends” “family” and things that “everyone does” were removed and I felt much more at peace with myself for having gotten rid of them.

I’m living this life for me — no one else — so why should I care what they say or think about my lifestyle? Why do I have to acknowledge their feelings of insecurity about what I do or don’t do with my time? If someone is trying to make you feel insecure about making changes in your life it’s because they are uncomfortable with those changes.

Check yourself on what you’ve been doing so far and see if it’s working out for you. Many of you won’t be able to do this because it can be hard to admit that everything you were doing isn’t serving you. Be open to change and understand why it’s necessary — or you’ll just keep repeating the same mistakes.

There’s a reason you’re reading this. There’s a reason you’re not dead. There’s a reason for all the hardship you’ve faced so far — it’s up to you to figure out what that reason is. You aren’t going to find that reason in the opinions of others or just going along with what everyone else is doing — it takes self-discovery.

Spend time with yourself to find out what you enjoy and what you feel gives your life meaning and purpose. It is during this time that you will begin to understand why certain things had to happen and why others did not. Create your life based on what you’ve learnt from your experiences — not on what you’ve been told.

This life is yours — live it for yourself.

Peace & positive vibes.
