as I move into a new chapter of my life it’s hitting me that this adult life is so overwhelming!
society pressures us to rush every little thing in our lives, but taking it slow has been the thing for me lately. I was rushing myself at first but now it’s like “what for?” why not take time to invest energy and stuff into things I truly want?
finally secured an apartment after months of searching and I’m very excited for this move. but everything that comes along with it is super exhausting lol. especially this zone parking permit crap. it’s like cool to have guaranteed parking but the process of updating my info is just ghetto and time-consuming lol.
but the crazy reality of being an adult is the price of everything. learning balance and financial management every single day can tire you. even as a pretty disciplined person, it’s no way to stop being tired of stretching my wallet lol. but also the beauty of blessings in being able to have the things we need when we need them🙌🏾
anyways, let me be your reminder that it’s okay to take a step back and regroup whenever you need to. rethink your goals and aspirations whenever you need to. that’s what I do. because one thing that helps me keep pushing is remembering I am an adult and I can really do what I want lol, so let me make these changes to get there.
but one thing I can say too, is as an adult you have to be strong-minded and not allow outside opinions to get in the way of what you need to accomplish. it’s so easy for others to speak fear into what they haven’t seen or don’t know, which I feel has kept a lot of people from reaching their potential, including myself at times. Get around those making changes in their lives, pray daily, write out your goals and take baby steps at breaking them down. and take naps when you can🤭
lastly, I hate boxing myself in and breaking free from the “american dream” culture and cycle is the challenge of a lifetime! but I’m not trying to live this life forever. I’m excited for this new beginning and to see what this next chapter of adulthood brings me. definitely stay tune for new content tho👀
that’s my spill on adulthood for now. hope yall are having a great week!
