Hey beautiful, it's been a week since I wrote to you. As proof of my commitment to you & you alone, I'm writing to you today.
These past few days have been wonderful. I did nothing rather than watch some series & I sincerely enjoyed them. You can try it out too. Take a break from everything your life is about, & do something else. You'll be surprised at how bored you'll be.
The earlier you do this, the better. I feel like what my life revolves around is writing & marketing. I can't even have conversations with people around me without talking about it or them noticing it.
It's not bad to talk about what you do, but that shouldn't be the only thing your life is about. You can't have a long conversation about something else apart from that particular thing your life revolves around, it's not good enough. I'm talking to you, yes you.
No be everything be Content or book or marketing or whatever you do. There's a life outside these things. Take your time to find out. That's not where I'm going though. I just had to say that.
Have you ever imagined why life doesn't seem to be smooth? Have you ever thought about why everything doesn't always happen the way we want it? If yes, the reason is that it's never meant to be.
I'm not trying to be negative but life can never be smooth every time. But, you can choose to be smooth regardless of how rough life becomes. Your reaction shouldn't be influenced by life's actions.
Do you think that person you're looking up to has everything figured out? The truth is, (s)he might not have it figured out yet, but choose to be strong irrespective of that & not allow that to affect her attitude towards life.
Do you think the best content writers don't get rejected when they write content? Do you think the best marketers don't perform below par? They do, but their response to it isn't discouragement, they're encouraged to do more & be more.
That's how you should also be. There's always a good thing in everything you experience no matter how bad it may appear. Life is unfair & will always be. You don't have to be unfair to yourself by responding negatively to life. Life is hard, but stay positive. Life tuff, but stay positive.
I spent close to 4 hours researching & writing content for a client. I was so excited to submit the content & get my money. Guess what he said. He said, "the content is totally misleading". Omorr, I Wan ment. You sure say you check am well?
I had to ask him to check again because It seems I didn't understand what he said. It was as if I didn't know what I was doing. I was likeā¦
But the truth is, it's part of the growth process. I think I shared it with some people around me & they told me not to feel bad.
I also shared it with some of those looking up to me so that they can learn & understand that it won't always be rosy. There are thorns you have to bear in your flesh. Don't let social media deceive you, everyone has dirty secrets.
It won't always be smooth, but you can choose to be smooth in rough circumstances.
Till when next I write to you,
Stay strategic about your view of life.
