Just do you
No matter what you think about anything all you have to do is be you. I often worry my posts may be too all over the place or not make sense or that they’re not good enough in some sort of way. But the point is I wrote all this stuff without thinking about it, I’m not overthinking right now and I’m not allowing the worry to take place in my mind. Once I stop writing however, that’s when the voice comes in trying to get me to overthink it in any which way I can. For so long in my life I’d just not do stuff because I overthink it and then create some reasons not to… but all you have to do is be authentically you. You can’t copy others as to how to act and it be ‘correct’ because you’ll never be who YOU truly are… you just need to do what you like doing and do it all without thinking about it. Like right now I just got the thought and impulse to sort of come here and write a post like this, I didn’t really know where I wanted it to go but here we are. And normally I’d sit and overthink that, end up not doing it and then scrolling on my phone. By following the thought processes outlined in my soon to be available book you can begin to recognise the thoughts that you actually want to follow and you can snap out of overthinking and choose to do it, like I am doing right now. I overthought it a bit, then I decided no actually, I won’t let the thought that I shouldn’t do this over rule me. I will type what I type and so be it. And that’s what being authentically you is. This is my journey to being authentically me, which is to try and help people… cos that’s who I am and this is the way i want to be so I’m going to do it.
