The reason I do not want to say “New Me” is because to me that gives a bad idea. Like why hope to be someone else? It sort of implies that something is wrong with the you that you truly are. This past year was a not easy, my family and I have gone through alot. But what makes me proud is that we did not just go through it, we SURVIVED it. Why would we want to get rid of those US?

SAME ME

I am not perfect but New Me? nah. I am Me and whatever comes our way we have to continue being us and facing whatever obstacle comes our way. I would rather be a BETTER ME than a NEW ME cause that in fact would not be me.

THE SNAP

i have also been thinking a lot about how I am gonna be able to manage everything in my life. I am not only a father, I am now gonna be a father of 2. If that is not enough, I am also an older brother who is semi responsible in getting them around. To top it off, I am also a manager so I always feel like I have A LOT of people relying on me both work and home wise.

Every time I am doing something or I am stressed out. I imagine a tight rope in my head. Almost like I am doing a test pull to see how much it is being stretched and if I can take on any more.

I always try to be careful with that because the more and more I add, the closer I am to SNAPPING.

Failure?

I am the type of person that feels that I do not have the luxury of “failing”. If I fail we all fail so we can not have that right?

This mindset can be a blessing but also a curse. I find myself overthinking and sometimes not taking a necessary risk in fear of failing. Although it keeps me stable and safe. This also means Im setting a limit on myself.

Takeaway

So if you are gonna take anything away from this blog post, let it be this:

1. Don’t be a “NEW” you just a “BETTER” you
2. Check your rope, make sure its not close to SNAPPING
3. Don’t be like me and be afraid of failure or you wind up stuck under your own limitations
   • You are your own worst enemy
