At some certain point in ones life, there will come a time when there is going to be this particular silence in mind when you will just realise that the time is due to let something go, not because you are willing to let go of it, but for the sake of growth, you just have to let it be that way.
I do not know if that is only applicable to me or just everyone. But in my mind, I need comfort, so I do actually let go of some things.
Over the past few years, thriving on routine, that has always been my nature, it is the kind of person I used to be. Wake up so early, won't even check if my legs are functioning, say a little prayer, scroll through my phone for hours, hangout with friends if need be without even watching the time. While I was in school, until it is die minutes before I start reading, I usually start my semester project very late with sleepless nights back to back, and somehow it worked for me but it usually tell on my health after. But now that life is coming so fast and knocking like a thief in the night, the dreams I have are way bigger than all my excuses. At this point in life, managing things won't definitely get me to where I need to be in life because the journey is still far ahead and the goals are way bigger.
In all honesty, if I really want to proceed to the next stage in life and be at the apex of my career, come up with something meaningful, become the person I truly want to become in life, then letting go of the cozy version of me is a must. The version of me that want excellence over ease, even thou I want an easy life. The version that will always do away with procrastination while the time is running fast like a water escaping through a mesh.
A lot of people usually think that sacrificing is all about letting go of people or things. No! It is also freeing yourself from some kind of mindset, bad character, messy habits or maybe things that are causing you big distractions, at some point, I had to let go of some things that have been holding me back I I will not lie, I saw changes in my life.
Growth: It will not be easy, I will tell you this free of charge, it might hurt you but I am sure that being disciplined, being focused and waking waking up everyday with a sense of purpose will always give me a lot of benefits and interest than waking up to those things that are just for my mean time comfort.
I must be always ready for the future because it will not wait for me, and that is the reason why I always on the move, ready to let go of things that will not allow me to grow, and taking the necessary steps at a time.
Thank for reading.
