“Killing it!”

Been my mantra when I feel like I am soooo NOT KILLING IT.

It’s in those moments, that I’m like pep talking myself and saying, “Hey, you are doing the BEST you can.” And that’s the truth. 

Sometimes the best we can do is all we have. 

In that moment, I have to detach and say this is ALL I got. Maybe, it’s not how I wish it to be and wish things were different. Even that I was different in this but, this right here is my absolute best. 

Damn it! I am trying. 

Out loud I’ll say, “We are Killing it!” Or “I am Killing it!” 

Bc...

We ARE Killing it by not dying. Seriously, I’m showing up and breathing. Alive. Yessssss!!! 

At this very moment, someone in the world is taking their last breathe. Be grateful you have more breaths coming to you. 

Today, Are you Killing it?!! In the real time “Killing it” way?!? Where you are going at life full speed and taking no prisoners?!? Or are you “Killing it” in the omg I got myself out of bed kinda way.  Where you are on the struggle bus and just doing your Damn best?!?

In my lifetime, both “Killing it”s have been my reality. Both are equally important. And should be understood and respected. Bc if you beat yourself up for not being where you want to be there is no hope of winning and eventually getting there. 

Can you meet yourself where you are?!?

...

Yikes. 

I want to answer, YES! 

But...

Truth is, it’s hard. The struggle bus sucks. Even though my life is UHMAZING there is stuff I wish wasn’t wrinkled. As in all of our lives. And that is precisely why we need to meet ourselves where we are. 

With love.
