"the race is long, and in the end it's only with yourself"🤸🏼‍♀️ When I quit my job at 25 to pursue my dream job (what I do now), I watched from the sidelines as all of my friends progressed in their careers... They got promotions, went on nice holidays, bought nice things - houses, cars, clothes, etc. I was broke for years, so much so I had to move in with a friend outside of London. But I had a goal and a dream. There were times I felt left behind, especially when I couldn't go on holiday with my friends, or when I reached 30 and hadn't bought a house etc. Or when other people in my industry had achieved success at 18 or 22, before I'd even entered this works! But now I truly get to do what I love, and quite a lot of those friends have realised they don't like their job and are thinking about starting again. I might change my mind about what career will make me happy again... I'm always trying to learn and follow new interests. We probably won't want the same thing at 16 as we do at 40.✨ The same goes for relationships: people who are happy in relationships now might be single again. We can't predict or control other people's or our own emotions in this very long life. ❤️ My point with this, is that life isn't just about climbing one ladder... our dreams, desires, and priorities change. Sometimes you have to move back to go forwards. We have to listen to our guts and do what makes us happy, and be kind to each other along the way. 🤸🏼‍♀️✨」10月1日 21時10分
