She Empowers: 20 Somethings for the 20 Something Soul

Dear 20 something soul,

Caution: THIS IS NOT WISDOM FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS ALREADY PASSED THEIR TWENTIES. THIS IS AN OPEN CONVERSATON WITH A PEER WHO IS LEARNING AND GROWING JUST AS YOU ARE.

I would be lying to you guys if I said I had it all figured out. I’m personally still in my early twenties and to be honest I’ve been struggling a little bit with finding peace, balance, and contentment in my roaring twenties. Between building my business, feeding the kids, reading books, writing books and making sure I eat a healthy diet there’s a lot to juggle. There’s days when it’s exhilarating and then there’s days when it’s exhausting. There’s moments of clarity and then moments of complete chaos and let’s not even bring up the battle between self-belief and self-doubt. I wanted to start this weekly list of wisdom, thoughts and lessons learned to help us get through these character building and soul maturing years together.

Something #1

ROME WASN’T BUILT IN A DAY

We are in the beginning stages of our adult life. With there being so much pressure to have a respected job, have a house, have financial success, and to look like you have it going on, we tend to forget that things take time. Say it with me, THINGS. TAKE. TIME.

Let’s strive to achieve all the goals we personally have set for ourselves but let’s have grace and remember that Rome was not built in a day. Work hard every day at adding stones to the foundation and remember these years are for sowing and building not reaping and benefiting.

Till next time,

20 something soul
