It matters not what others think you’re capable of, but what you know in your soul you’d be crazy not to do.
There are many people who will try to stop you –
Who will warn you just how “risky” what you want to do is.
Who will tell you stories about their friend of a friend that tried to do what you did and ruined their whole life.
Who will caution you to do what’s safe, what’s responsible, what’s normal.
And you –
My badass, rebel friend, need to IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE.
The thing about those who are NOT LIKE US, are that they can’t even FATHOM the idea of your “crazy idea” actually working out.
They genuinely believe that they’re helping you by warning you of the “dangers” of following your soul and doing the big things you’ve always known you were born to do.
This is because they are a different breed.
They are nothing like us. They can’t rationalize what we do. Don’t even bother trying to explain your side of things.
Just not your head and immediately ignore their suggestion to stop, to go slow, to be “careful” (LOL!), to be responsible…
You, and me, and those that are just like us?
We know what we’re meant to do in this world. The thought of taking things slow, of doing what The Normals do each day, makes us nauseous.
Deep down inside of you, there’s a fire that burns so fiercely, it’s impossible to put out.
People will try to throw water on it, try to keep you small…
But it’s a fire that always burns. It will never go out.
You will either continue to your life trying to engulf the flames and sink into Normal-Dom (and fail), or you will throw on more gasoline and encourage it to burn bigger, burn hotter, burn brighter.
Trying to put out the impossible-to-put-out fire inside of you is a game that you can’t win, and why the fuck would you want to?
The fire is there for a reason.
There fire is there to remind you to do what your soul longs to do. What you’ve always known that you were born for.
Every second you spend living a life where you ignore soul, is a second wasted.
Your soul will keep on knocking. Keep reminding you of what you’re supposed to be doing. What you KNOW you should be doing.
You will be scared. You will feel like you’re not good enough. You will have many, many excuses that try to stop you from doing the soul-acts you’re being called to tend to –
And you may very well give in to them on occassion.
But the fire? Will still be burning.
You will feel it. You will know it’s there. You will know it’s raging.
And you will be tempted - so tempted - to ignore it, because you’re so fucking terrified of what may come of following the nudges you’ve been receiving.
I’ll be the first to tell you that, no matter how hard you try to hide, the fire will still burn. You cannot escape it.
You are who you are.
YOU’RE A MOTHERFUCKING BADASS LEADER AND THE WORLD NEEDS YOUR GIFTS.
Your gifts are needed. They were given to you to SHARE, not to selfishly keep contained inside of you.
Just being around you is powerful. Being in the same room as you has the potential to SHIFT the way someone shows up in the world. Sitting in your energy will change lives.
Aren’t you sick of hiding who you truly are?
Aren’t you tired of playing it safe, staying small, and down-playing how fucking badass you are?
Aren’t you pissed at yourself for not TRULY going after what you know you’re meant to?
I’d be pissed, too.
The longer you resist what you know you’re meant to do, the less and less you enjoy your life.
Hard truth: You will never fully enjoy your life and experience true happiness & joy, until you act on the callings of your soul.
Wanna know why you can’t make the money you desire?
Or why you don’t ever seem to feel over-the-moon excited about - well, anything - for an extended period of time?
Or why everything just feels so fucking hard all of the time?
Or why it’s taking “forever” to get what you want (which never ultimately comes)?
It’s because you’re ignoring your soul.
Admit it - you’ve been playing it safe for a really long time. You know this, right? Of course you do.
And, how has that been working for ya?
Don’t answer, I already know.
Isn’t it time for you to answer the callings of your soul?
Isn’t it time to claim what you’ve always wanted?
Isn’t it time to live the life you know you were born to?
Yeah, I thought so.
Rooting for you, always.

Cassie
