I am not a dancer.
I have this one dance move and I do it for everything: Swedish House Mafia, Wham, LTJ Bukem, The Carpenters, Frank Sinatra, Dua Lipa.
I've accepted that that's okay!
Younger-me needed to be good at errrrrrrrrrrrthing.
Now-me recognises and accepts that there's no need to be. (Plus it's so damn tiring and unnecessary and doesn't actually help anyone. Does anyone actually care if I can't dance? Exactly.)
Also, literally nobody is expecting or asking me to be good at everything. I disappoint approximately nobody by being terrible at dancing. Or singing. Or understanding what a mole is in chemistry.
But there are some things that I am bloody good at, so I'm going to do them with my whole damn heart and know that whose things will be mega. That’s enough.
In fact, letting myself not be good at everything frees up so much more time, energy and headspace for me to focus and grow the things I can do well.
And when I do decide to dance? That can be 100% pure fun 💃
What one thing are you punishing yourself to be excellent at when there’s just no need? What can you let go of and just be terrible at? 🤣 (and yes, that’s a laugh-cry emoji because if you can’t even laugh at your horrible mess-ups, how can you begin to let ‘em go!)
