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.

Our world has us believing that we have to live up to standards that actually can't be lived up to. The perfect body, relationship, look, hair, lifestyle and everything else you could possibly imagine. These things that we are fed are constantly telling us that we aren't good enough and that we have to purchase this or that to become something better. The truth is, you have these incredible gifts that if you unlocked them you could amaze the world. But the first thing you have to do is take off the mask you've been wearing your entire life.

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.

Love and appreciate the things, people, and life that you have right now. Accept where you are at and then if you want to build something different for yourself, dive into it fully. Dive into it because you believe in it. Dive into it because it's something that you want to do and it's something that will make you incredibly proud. That's a life that you can be happy about.

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