Keeping up with the Joneses is highly overrated. Trying to stay up to date with every trend and sticking to the status quo is exhausting, and the programming to fall into that trap is an unfair pressure we think we have to uphold. We want to be unique in so many ways, but somehow, when we begin to deviate from expectations, the uniqueness factor fades to the thinking that we are doing things wrong. Life’s timing is not a finite timeline of events. The time it takes us to get where we want to be in life should not be compared to someone else’s journey. Even if our end point is not exactly where we planned it would be, it is okay. The path we take is ours to explore and wander as life guides us to where we are meant to be. To go down a path just because everyone is doing it would be a great injustice to our dreams and individuality. There are far greater things in life to place emphasis on than comparing ourselves to someone else. Successes look different for people at different times and places. A roadmap for success is nonexistent and having twenty-twenty vision can only be acquired in hindsight. We will reach our peak when we least expect it, but in the meantime, we can support others and celebrate their journey as we trek on our journey. There will be a day for us to realize it is our own time to shine. Stay Curious, Kayla ©Inquisitive Perspectives 2019
