I told myself it was too special to just write anything in. That it needed the *right* words, the *right* ideas, the *right* version of me to fill it. And because of that, it’s still empty. Meanwhile, my worn-out notebooks... coffee-stained, messy, barely holding together... are filled with years of my life. It made me realize how often I do this in other areas too. I put things on a pedestal and then hesitate to touch them. I wait until I feel more ready, more clear, more “worthy” of starting. (or when it comes to a brand new outfit, waiting until I go out of the house without my twins so I don't get food stains or snot all over it 😆). But nothing meaningful comes from protecting something into perfection. It comes from using it, even when it’s messy, even when it’s not what you imagined. #journaling #luxury #mindset It's no use to buy something and not use it so i'm deciding that every idea is worthy of being written in this journal and every new shirt or shoes needs to be worn, even when I'm just heading to Target with my boys.
