So, I was scrolling through the ‘Gram the other day (because let’s be real, who isn’t?), and I stumbled across this quote that made me do a double take: “Be grateful for not figuring it out.” At first, I was like, “Wait, what?!” We’re all hustling, grinding, and burning the midnight oil trying to “figure it out,” right?

But here’s the twist. What if not having all the answers was the real treasure? Yeah, I know, mind-blowing, right?

The journey, the messy middle, the trials and errors – that’s where the magic happens. The “figuring out” phase is where we truly grow, evolve, and become the best versions of ourselves. Every failure, every little hiccup, and every “almost there” moment – they all add layers to our story, making the end goal even more satisfying.

Case in point: I’ve been knee-deep in this project for the past two years. It’s been a rollercoaster of messing things up and trying again. And guess what? I might still be wrong, but man, have I learned a ton along the way!

So, next time you feel bogged down by not having all the answers, take a breath. Relish in the journey. Dive deep into the process. Because that, my friends, is where you really get to explore your passions, harness your power, and deliver your unique purpose to the world. Happy ‘figuring it out’!
