Being “Too Much”…
I have heard that I am “Too Much” so many times in my life that I can’t even remember.
At first, that scared me. What does it even mean? Too much? Am I too loud? Do I steal the thunder or what does it really mean?
I felt that I needed to conform… to be less…
Luckily, I couldn’t. It just didn’t feel right… Being less was not right…
I am what I am and my energy just skyrockets from time to time
I can’t just smile and look pretty
I can’t swallow my thoughts just because that makes you uncomfortable
I will not apologize for being both smart & hot
I will not apologize for my success
I will not shrink myself for anyone
Yes, YOU CAN
Then, I have understood… maybe it was not me being “too much”, but some people couldn’t keep up.
Some people might be scared of you and of what you can achieve…
My dear, you can be anything that you want to be! Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t… YOU CAN!
You can be brilliant and sexy, funny and crazy, silly and adorable, sweet and tough, determined and brave
You can have a fantastic career and be a great mom
You can be a leader, a champion, a visionary
You can be successful
You can be exactly as you want to be. You can dress as you want, in colorful fun clothes and extravagant denim dresses.
You can dress up like a QUEEN if you feel like it!
You can be loud, you can laugh and have fun
You can speak your mind and say what bothers you
You can act against the status quo
You can follow your dreams and you can reach to the stars, without making any compromise
You can be simply AMAZING
Don’t be less FABULOUS
Don’t apologize for the fire that burns inside you!
Don’t put out that fire…
Don’t let anyone stop you!
Don’t shrink yourself for anyone!
