Vee’s Inspiration January 26, 2024

There were days when I was more scared than I was inspired.  Those were the days I barely made it out of bed.  I didn’t want to talk to anyone, be around anyone or be anywhere.  I just wanted to remain in my scared uninspired world.

I’ve had days like that.  Real Talk,  I used to have weeks and months like that.  Those were the darkest of times.   

I wish I had a clear answer as to what exactly helped me get out of this dark mental space.  Here are some of the things that were present in my life  during those dark times. 

I had a few true friends that did not judge me.  They were there for me even though I could not be there for myself.

I had my fitness.  Despite the darkness,  I've always loved the gym.  It was a place I could “kill” my demons

I had my books, movies, and writing.  These were the things that took my mind to distant places where my reality did not exist. 

I had my gifts.  These gifts have been a blessing and a curse.  They are the gifts of stubbornness and competitiveness.  I can be the most stubborn competitive person you will ever meet.  Despite being in a bad mental space, I was too stubborn and too competitive to let the darkness beat me.  

One of the sayings I created after getting out of that dark mental space was, “Be more stubborn than the situation” Vecus1997

If you’re going through something, talk to someone.  Lean into the things you love.  This will help you get through the worst and darkest of times.  Remember, most problems or situations are short-term.  Please don't make a long-term decision when trying to solve a short-term situation.

I share because it’s important to know everyone goes throught dark times.

Have a Great Day and Stay Safe!
