Your direction is more important than your speed.
As an adult, there are a lot of things that I have realized the hard way, and one of them is that I have my own speed to achieve things, I have my own speed, and I should not feel bad if at a certain age I am far behind others. In the era of social media, when we look around, we see how fast the world is moving and people are moving too, but we are still stuck at the same page. I have felt that so many times. I have felt that I can’t do that, what is wrong with me, and a lot of why I can’t seem to find the answer. However, there is only one me in this entire world, nobody can be me and I can’t be someone else, so why should I compare myself with others? I think the world has made the perspective about how at a certain age the person should achieve this, but what about others who are fighting so much in their life to just survive? Why is it wrong to lag? Are we in competition with someone? There are many questions and accusations, but there is no sensible answer to them. I know myself, I know I am working really hard for my future and at some point in my life I feel like I need a break, I wouldn’t hesitate to do so because I deserve it. I have my own speed and if the world can’t accept it then I will create my own speed just to protect myself. I want to let you know that everything will set one day, maybe not today, but a day will come when you will look back and be grateful that you prioritised yourself and moved ahead at your speed. Remember we have to go far, so walking and running at your own speed is how it is possible. Walk at your speed, you don’t need the world to cheer you up at the finish line, you are enough for it.
Sometimes you need to slow down to speed up.
