Just Be Who You Are

If I had a nickel for every time I reminded myself and others that you can’t change another person, I would have picked out, purchased, and paid off that Infiniti QX80 that I keep lusting after.

And as ageless (and annoying) as the saying is, it’s also entirely true. You can’t change another person. You can’t do their work for them. You can’t even get them to want to change.

But you know what you can do??

You can…

Encourage each other to be who you are.

Yup and it’s absolutely amazing. 

We hear constant reminders to improve, to work hard, to reach for the stars, blah, blah, blah.  But, what about the reminders to be exactly who we are? We need more of them and the reminders should be coming from each other!

When you encourage your partner to be who they are, you lovingly remind them that they are exactly who they’re meant to be AND you love them unconditionally for it. 

Now, this doesn’t mean that you HAVE to love EVERYTHING about your mate.  But really, what it does is gives you the opportunity to be each other’s biggest cheerleader and let unconditional love be your guiding light.

Encourage each other to be exactly who you are!!

You so got this!
