We can’t always do exactly what we want to do in every situation but if you’re focused more on pleasing those around you than honoring your own vision, dreams and desires, then it’s time to make changes. As we grow older, we learn that it’s OK to not always do what your friends, family members and partner feel is best for you. Unless you are doing something truly destructive or disrespectful, there’s zero reason to feel guilty or be sent on guilt trips. Sit down and think about the life you would be living if you didn’t have to worry about being judged. That is what you need to work toward.
