Never Settle

Never settle. That’s the most blunt I could possibly start off one of these notes. Never settle. Everyone deserves to have what they want in life. If you haven’t gotten it, or haven’t begun working towards it, then possibly it’s because you haven’t truly figured out what you want. Discover that and then seek the route to achieving it diligently. This is includes: your career, your ambitions, and your relationship. Settle for no one. Life is about love and happiness. If the person you wake up to everyday is not the person you see yourself being with for the rest of your life then –pardon my language- but why the fuck are you with them!? Okay, if you have a “relationship” strictly based on sex then disregard that (although I wouldn’t recommend it), but if you are in a committed relationship with someone you consistently have doubts about then reevaluate what’s important to you. Stop settling. A lot of time we get stuck in an “uncomfortable comfort zone”. Meaning you know that the job you have isn’t right for you, or the person your saying “I love you” to isn’t someone you see your self committing to 6 months down the line. So why the hell are you still there? Why wait for 6 months from now what you could do today? Why are you still in that unhealthy relationship?
Stay nowhere and with no one that you don’t se potential. Every job has its’ up and downs, every relationship has its’ struggles (don’t end a perfectly good relationship because you hate the fact they leave the cap off the toothpaste though, that’s just petty). You got to put some type of fight with everything that’s worth having, but if within this fight your are constantly getting your ass whooped then take the “L” and move on. There is no reasonable reason to be with anyone or do anything that is going to bring you more misery.
Discover “true importance” for yourself. What do your care about? What do you want? What do you need? And is that lover, that job, that school, that friend, that cousin that whoever… giving you what you need out of the relationship you have with it/ them? I say it too often “Stop trying to find yourself.” You exist already in every sense of the word. Accept yourself for who you are or who you honestly want to be. Otherwise, you will get trapped in a life of “settlements”. Never settle. You don’t deserve to compromise for someone you like because you haven’t found the person you love. Never settle. You don’t deserve to accept things you loathe and hate because the person you are with enjoys it. Never settle. You do not deserve to be stuck in a dead end job you can’t stand. Money is worth a lot, but peace is worth more. That’s not a compromise… that’s a sacrifice. Compromise, dont sacrifice! Sacrifice means you are giving a part of you. If you keep giving up parts of you, then what’s left? Never settle. Discover what you want, need, like, love. Think it. Want it. Get it. Keep it.
