When you’re on the way to greatness, that’s exactly when all these distractions wanna come in full throttle. It’s not a coincidence, keep going! Remind yourself why you’re doing this in the first place. It’s always easy to do things that are beneath you, but greater risks give greater outcomes.
Pride, past experiences, bad habits, being humble, asking for help, hyper-independence, communicating, healing, letting go…It’s never just pride, it’s also been many things related to it.
I don’t like holding onto things for too long anymore. I have to be a vessel and just let things flow

I thought I was having a last minute kickback for my birthday but my beloved friends threw a surprise party for me in a completely different location!!! My birthday (Friday, April 8th) started with no plans for an outfit, makeup, whatsoever.
