On Being As You Become | Enjoying the Journey

Today, we’re diving into the delightful journey of “being” while we are busily “becoming” better versions of ourselves. Get ready to explore the fun world of self-discovery, personal growth, and the magic that happens when we embrace the dance between who we are and who we’re becoming.

Picture this: life is like a massive buffet, and you’re the guest of honor. But instead of just indulging in the feast, you’re also the chef, concocting new flavors as you go.
Being as you become is a bit like that. You are both living life as you are and working on bettering your person and your life. You’re not just living; you’re designing. It’s a beautiful paradox – being who you are while embracing the marvel of who you’re becoming.

Who you are today is a collage of your past experiences, the people you’ve met, the books you’ve read, and those YouTube rabbit holes you’ve fallen into at 2 AM. All these quirky bits make up your unique flavor profile. Just think of your favorite movie characters – they start somewhere and end up somewhere entirely different, yet their essence remains intact. It’s like they’re embracing the flow of change while holding on to the core of their being.

So, how do you navigate this exhilarating labyrinth of self-discovery?

Give yourself permission to change.
It’s like upgrading to a cooler version of yourself, with better features and improved functionalities. You’re not losing anything; you’re leveling up!

Embrace the quirks.
Your obsession with collecting vintage spoons, your fascination with quantum physics, or that tendency to bust out a spontaneous dance in the middle of a grocery store aisle – these are the puzzle pieces that make up your one-of-a-kind mosaic.

Surround yourself with people who love all of you.
Hang out with people who celebrate your eccentricities and encourage your growth. They’ll remind you that it’s perfectly fine to belt out your favorite power ballad while stuck in traffic.

Pause and reflect.
Life can be a whirlwind, but every now and then, park yourself in a comfy chair with a cup of your preferred beverage. Reflect on how far you’ve come, the challenges you’ve conquered, and the hilarious mishaps that make for fantastic stories at parties.

Let’s enjoy the journey of life as we are while we are becoming more and more who we are called to be.
