ARE YOU ASKING FOR WHAT YOU *REALLY* WANT? OR ARE YOU SETTLING FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU DESERVE?

ARE YOU ASKING FOR WHAT YOU *REALLY* WANT? OR ARE YOU SETTLING FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU DESERVE?

(Pictured is me picking tea leaves in Japan. For our matcha company. That I told myself wasn’t viable or wouldn’t work. But that I really wanted to launch. Eventually I just said “fuck it, I’m going for it”, and now here we are.)

Maybe the reason that you don’t yet have what you want, is because you don’t actually want it.

Maybe your soul is doing it’s work in trying to GUIDE you toward your TRUE desires, and so it is pushing away your false ones. 

Those things you keep asking for – 

The certain amount of money
The particular type of relationship
The home in a very specific neighborhood

Have you ever asked yourself WHY you keep asking for these things?

Have you ever delved deeply into whether or not you ACTUALLY want them? 

Maybe they just seemed like cool goals at the time you made them. Maybe someone else achieved them and you thought “that looks fun, I want that”.

Whatever the reason, if you haven’t yet received the things you so desperately are seeking, it’s time to do some serious reflection on why you set those goals in the first place. 

The things you’re asking for now, especially that ONE really big thing you’ve been wanting for awhile now.. maybe it’s not THE thing.

Sure, it seems cool and all, and if you had it, you definitely wouldn’t be mad about it.

It wouldn’t be bad of course, but it also wouldn’t feel right, and you know it. It would feel as though you were constantly walking around in someone else’s used underwear. 

Old. Stale. Gross. Unpleasant. Not right at ALL.

It’s tempting to go after things that would be ‘okay’ because they ARE better than what you currently have, but what you’re actually doing when you say YES to these things that are not, deep down, what you really, truly want – 

Is crushing your SOUL.

You’re saying ‘no’ to what you really want by saying ‘yeah sure, this is good enough for now’ to what you really don’t.

It’s not about being greedy or selfish. It’s not about asking for things just because you can, if you don’t genuinely want them.

It’s about honoring your soul’s desires and not settling for less.

It’s about honoring YOURSELF.

Don’t you think it’s time to finally start going after the things you really DO want, instead of settling? 

Those big dreams that you’ve had hidden away for so long that maybe you don’t even remember what they are anymore?

Don’t you see that it’s TIME?

Time for you to shine, time for you to rise, and time for you to have whatever the fuck you want, NOW?

Because it is. 

Because it ALWAYS is. 

You CAN have what you want. You don’t have to wait. You don’t have to struggle first. You don’t have to take baby steps. 

What you want - no matter how big, how “crazy” - is possible for you. And it will become LIKELY for you the moment you decide to go for it. 

Decide now. 

There’s no better time than the present.
