When You Let Go Of What You Thought You Should Become

By Evan Sanders


When you let go of what you believe you should be, what the world is trying to tell you to be, and listen to who you are deep down inside - real magic happens. Everything is attempting to drag you into the middle where mediocrity lives. You really should be this way, dress this way, talk this way, like this music, do these things - the list goes on for evermore.

The more that you express your feelings, the further away from normal you get, the more that you feel the gravity of that pull trying to bring you back in. The rest of the planet, as much as they revere people who morph and change things, truly does not want you to become an outlier. But that's where most innovaters passions live - on the fringes. That's where genius lives. That's where vision and dreams live. These are the most unique places in life.

If you are going to take a bit of a chance on those, you better be ready to feel the pressure from the giant outside forces of normality. I did not understand that at the beginning. I thought that this force making an attempt to bring me back in was the honest thing to do. But in numerous cases I learned that the voice rustling deep within me was the right thing to do because honestly, that's where my purpose and passion lives. If I ignored that I would be forever living in deep regret.

Follow what makes you leap out of bed in the morning. Follow what makes your heart light up. Those positive things will never send you in the wrong direction. They'd send you into really challenging scenarios, but that is what comes with the territory. You need to be willing to seek that resistance and understand that once it shows up, you are in the right spot.

Be content to be different. Make the sacrifices it takes to carry out your dreams. You never can tell when you'll be taken from this place, so you truly may as well give yourself the best chance possible to go out with a bang and start following your dreams.
