It's okay to not be good all the time!

It's okay to not be good all the time!

We all have a version. We are all good and bad people. We are a hero in some people’s story and the devil in someone else’s story.

In the beginning I wanted everyone to love me - because I am a good human being, I thought to myself.

I don’t do bad things - I don’t torture people - I don’t hit anyone - I don’t do wrong things so that naturally makes me good right ?

No. We all do “wrong” things.

No one is perfect and giving them that label can sometimes make the person you think is perfect uncomfortable because deep inside their heart they know they are just as human as you & me.

Why do we spend so much of our time “Perfecting” us and our behaviours when that doesn’t even exist.

It’s one thing to become better as we grow, change is great but doing it under pressure because someone labelled you as “something” that you’re not.

This is applicable for everyone and everything - If you have a brand, if you run a store, if you’re a designer, if you’re a baker or an accountant -

If someone doesn’t find you worthy, it doesn’t make you worthless. It’s just one person’s opinion and IT IS OKAY TO NOT BE GOOD ALL THE TIME.

When you start a new path, a road you have never travelled on before, mistakes are going to happen - it’s not under our control but how you deal with them changes you.

You baked a cake and someone didn’t like it, it’s okay. Not everyone has the same taste and palette. You don’t stop baking because someone didn’t like it - One day you’re going to find your people and they will love you, accept you for who you’re and what you do.

Can we please take a breather and not be good for sometime ?

Let’s just be who we are, just for a moment.

Cheers,
