The message in this newsletter has been written by me a thousand times at least, but when I am prompted to talk about something I talk about it, okay?
Sometimes when you think about your “future self” or your “dream self” it’s hard to imagine how to get from here to there without some major change of life events. Like you’re waiting for until you have the job, the partner, the body, the money, etc. that’s deems you worthy of living how you want to or being who you want to!
It’s like you’re saying you can’t act like your highest self until you’re “good enough”,
But the day that you start cleaning your kitchen like it’s your dream kitchen is the day you start to enjoy life a little bit more. The day that you start setting up a healthy work environment (clean desk, positive attitude, willingness to learn and grow, etc.) is the day you stop working just to live and start enjoying your everyday life. Wear the outfits no matter how you look or where you’re going. Thrift the version of the Bottega runway if you can’t afford Bottega runway right now. How would this abstract version of the future you wake up? How would they handle their to do list? Do their eyeliner? Would they even wear eyeliner? Bad days are going to come…. but how would your highest self handle them?
There’s a magical moment that feels like a pause where you can decide to act like a toad, or decide to step into your power. I often choose the road of the toad, but I like to think I grow stronger every day.
So how do you want your days to look? Start experimenting now, because here’s the thing, if you’re always counting on the future you will literally never enjoy the present.
Cheers to dreaming! Happy Monday.
Xx, Chloe
