I Am Not Giving Up

🧿 I am not giving up on the person I will become. 🧿

This isn’t some motivational slogan for me...it’s a creed. A morning mantra. A line drawn in the sand between who I’ve been conditioned to survive as and who I’m choosing to grow into with intention each and every day.

Becoming yourself isn’t a single breakthrough moment where everything just makes sense. It’s a series of decisions made when no one is watching, when nobody even chooses to see you. It’s accepting growth on the days when the comfort of old patterns would be easier. It’s staying grounded when escape looks like the only path. It’s continuing even when moving forward feels impossible.

There are versions of us that we've shaped by fear, protection, and adaptation. Those versions did their job and kept us alive. They aren’t meant to be our final draft though. Growth asks something different from us now...not impervious perfection, not absolute certainty, but utter, unbridled, unadulterated honesty. The willingness to listen inward, along with the courage to act from alignment instead of approval. The discipline to move toward what feels true, even when it costs us the core of our familiarity.

Giving up rarely looks dramatic, it usually shows up as simply settling. Shrinking our expectations, convincing ourselves that this is “just how it is.” That is not the nature of reality, however. You're still learning, still building, and you must still believe your future self deserves the whole of your effort today.

This path isn’t about chasing an idealized version of yourself. It’s about trusting the pull of what energizes you, challenges you, and brings you into clearer integrity. When you follow what genuinely lights you up, not impulsively, but responsibly, you don’t lose yourself...you reframe yourself.

So...as I write this, I will keep walking, keep choosing, and keep becoming. Not because it’s easy, but because it’s who I am.

...and I’m not giving up on that!

🪬💙🙏
