The other day, I read on another social network:
"take off the 'S' on your chest and stop trying to have it all. You don't need to believe you can have it all!"
I had seen that so many times before but it struck me as ODD, this particular time.
Why is it that women are told we can't have it ALL? Why is it that we are told that we can't have a happy family, happy friendships, happy job and happy LIFE? Why is it that having it all is perceived as IMPOSSIBLE or shouldn't happen for us?
Well, my friends - we can have it all and I know MANY women who live their dream life - including myself.
I have a happy family, I have happy friendships, I have a happy job and I have a happy LIFE! I am able to juggle all that I WANT - because I find a way. I am able to juggle because I realize now I refuse to allow anyone to tell me I CAN'T have it all.
Having it ALL isn't always about the fancy Italian cars - big houses or eating out every day. My ALL going to be what others believe is their ALL. But for now, I have it all.
I have friends who I have had in my life for decades 20+ years, 40+ years and recently, I have been blessed with meeting some great new people.
I have a deeply devoted husband - who is an incredible father
I have two doggies, who are my furry best buddies
I have a job/career I LOVE and I work with the most amazing people in my 30 year career
I have no debt
I have food on my table
I have peace and laughter in my home
I have two cars
and I enjoy my life - because I believe I can and I AM having it ALL.
So - ladies (and men, too!) if someone is telling you - you can't have it ALL. Don't believe them! You can have it ALL - just decide what YOUR ALL is and go for it. You deserve it! Don't believe the others - they are telling you, that you will fail before you even begin.
I am telling you -Live your Life and Enjoy your Life!
