Sometimes You Need To Take Things Slow
As cliche as it is: take your time, run your own race.
Do you get the feeling, sometimes, that everything out there in the big wide world is kind of… rushed?
It’s kind of fast, kind of hurried, kind of urgent.
The world is, quite frankly, batpoop at the moment. Maybe it always was, who knows?
What I do know is that if you try to run and catch-up with every little thing, you’re likely to fall down.
As cliche as it is: take your time, run your own race.
Others are gonna do what they’re gonna do, but their lives aren’t yours, so — as hard as it is — try to stop comparing yourself to them.
Because you’re awesome, I promise.
So, it’s alright not to march to the beat of someone else’s drum.
It’s OK to slow stuff down.
It’s OK to say ‘hang on, there’s too much going on, and I need to simplify because it’s too much.’
It’s OK to take a minute — or an hour, or a day — for yourself.
You’re not selfish. You’re just human.
