Fantasizing about the future, while still dealing with reality

We all remember that one question in high school “Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years". Now I'm here 10 years later, and almost everything I've ever fantasized about has happened. I often questioned whether I was the only one who was going through life's trials and still dreaming of all the things I wanted. While doing a bunch of research I realized that I'm not! There are so many people in their 30s 40’s and 50’s still working jobs they hate while fantasizing about the future that they wish to have someday.

Oh, I also know many people including myself who have dreams but are at places in life where we don't want to be. The truth is, all of this is preparing us for our future. That baby you want to have will come when it's meant to come. That lifestyle you want to have is on its way. That trip you are dreaming of taking will happen one day. Please don't stop fantasizing, it makes life fun and you don't feel like all you are doing all of this for absolutely nothing.

“Where there's a vision, there's a plan.”

I remember moments when I fantasized about having my license, driving my car, moving into my own place, having a relationship with my sister, being in a happy space, finding my mom, and getting my GED . While everything on this screamed impossible due to life's circumstances, my vision stayed alive. These were all things I dreamed of and they happened, maybe not overnight but it happened! Not to mention I was still dealing with reality but I didn't let go of those dreams. I continued to envision what I wanted out of life. Whatever you are fantasizing about will happen, I know because it did for me. Also, remember to be grateful for what you currently have.

I hope this blog encourages you to keep dreaming, even though you're dealing with reality because your dreams will come true.

Holding yourself Accountable & Letting It Go!

Are you going through some s***? Me too! I hope you are holding yourself accountable but also letting the past go! Holding yourself accountable gives you an opportunity to reflect on what you did wrong so you won't make the same mistake twice. Letting it go is important for your mental health! Definition ( Accountability): Accountability is the acceptance of responsibility for one's own actions.

Holding on to things can cause stress and stress can put us at risk for heart disease and other health issues. Omg, y'all! Things have been super rocky in my personal life lately. A few times I wanted to say f*** it and hide under a rock but I was reminded that no matter what life throws at me I caused on myself. The conversation stopped being "Why me?" & it became "How do I fix this?". My Experience: I got tired of blaming others for why I went...

Dealing with Judge mental People, What you need to know!

People form opinions based on their own personal experiences. I wish more people stopped judging others and allowed them to learn and grow. At Least that's how I feel! We all know that one person who always has something to say. ( You shouldn't do that, it’ll get you in debt. Leave that alone, you’ll ruin your life. Why would you do that, you should be ashamed. ) Most people tell us things because they lived through it but sometimes the approach isn't as warm and welcoming. I'm here to tell you no matter what advice you get, follow your intuition because it never lies. No matter what I've been through, good or bad it has literally made me into the woman I am today. I regret nothing because it taught me a lot! It taught me to embrace my journey, what I didn't want for my future, how incredible I was and what mistakes I was not willing to make again. I had to realize everything that was meant to destroy me only made me stronger and aware of who GOD has placed me ...

Please don’t take life to serious!

I know we’ve all heard someone say “ Life is not a game ”. I am here with a unpopular opinion. “ Please don’t take life to serious ”. If you are stressing over financial problems, relationship breakup, difficulties at work or school, injury or illness. You are making things harder for yourself and the healing process. Maybe you are going through a hard time financially, you are going through a breakup, maybe a health scare or family drama. We all know we go through things so why must we make things more difficult than what they are? By having your everyday life issues at the top of your mind how will it help you? I’m not saying to ignore life’s issues but at-least make the best out of them because it’s only temporary. We are all human and we have our moments of uncertainty, moments of weakness and moments we need to heal etc but why not try to still live a fulfilling life despite what’s going on? I believe going through difficult moments and finding ways to keep you ...
