I spend a lot of time analyzing and changing different beliefs, patterns and habits that I carry ...

I mean a LOT.

Is it working?
I'm not sure.

I think so.
I feel it is.

But how can I know for sure?

I've adopted a different mindset.

I used to struggle to create habits ... Push myself to grow, fighting against fear and discomfort every step of the way.

I decided to try a different approach

One where I stopped struggling.
One where I practiced being gentle instead of rough.
One where it was ok to make mistakes.

I don't want to live a life that I'm not proud of ... But I also don't want to live a life where I am constantly battling myself.

I decided to slow down my pace... And learn to go with the flow.

Now I wake up and enjoy the sunrise, letting my day unfold before me ... No more rushing. No more fighting my inner critic, struggling against unexpressed urges.

I can do this.

Want to know what I realised?
I've got a lot of fucking time.

I used to think I had to change overnight ... That I had to wake up one morning and be Fletcher Hartline ... Badass motherfucker who was perfect in every way. Successful, good looking, had his shit under control ...

Well, I'm not there quite yet ... And that's ok.

Today I'm Fletcher the guy who changes his mind ... All the time. The guy who works hard and also sometimes doesn't. The guy who is figuring his life out one day at a time.

It's important for me to grow.
I know that the life I am living is not the one that I want.
But I also know that I can turn it into that one.

I'm not in a rush.

I'm not going to kill myself just trying to live.

I'm ok with my flaws (well most of them at least) and feel confident that I can grow through them.

I'm not afraid anymore.
