IN THE SHADOWS

It’s been a while since I published an article here, and today is all about you. We often find ourselves in the shadow of others; putting them before ourselves. Some may call it being selfless but to me that’s not so. I've often found myself referring to it as operating behind the scenes. Just like in those movies you love but you never get to know the production team, just the cast.
You have no idea the kind of opportunities you can miss out on while standing in the shadows thinking that you’ve earned it. Feeling invisible to others believing you deserve it, afraid to let yourself be heard. If someone was to ask, what are you waiting for?
Climb over the walls that you fear, find you place in the world and leave all the doubts behind. And step in to the light. Shed the skin that you’re in not hiding who you are any more. Spread your wings and follow the path to your identity. Speak out, give those ideas that you’ve been holding back. Stand up for yourself and never think less of yourself, not even a bit. Say goodbye to the person you’re hiding and ignite the real you by stepping into the light.
Always putting yourself second. Ignite. Who knows what or who you might illuminate in the process!
Be your own greatest motivation.
