Here’s a hard truth.
It’s impossible to be your best and most authentic self without disappointing and pissing off some people some of the time.
There will always be people who disagree with you, or who feel hurt by your decisions (that have nothing to do with them!). That is totally normal, and in fact, the optimal state of things.
Sure, along the way, you may make some mistakes, and you may fail as you try things. However, your responsibility is only to work on yourself, not to please people.
Don’t waste your energy persuading anyone to change their mind, or making them feel good about you.
Just focus your energy on being true to your best self.
You’ll be amazed by all the good things, nourishing people and peace that you will attract, by you simply being you.
