The Evolving Self

I’ve had to completely reinvent myself 5 major times in my life.

Each was triggered by a major life event.

But now, I am evolving and changing constantly.

And let me be clear, there is a major difference between growing and evolving.

I’ve grown every single year of my life. But only evolved in a handful of them.

Evolution is now my permanent process and the focus of my life’s work.

As it should be for all of us.

Because becoming the best version of yourself doesn’t mean just growing your current identity.

It means evolving an entirely new one.

So all last year my entire focus was on letting go.

Letting go of the need for a static identity.

Letting go of the perception of control.

Letting go of my preferences.

Letting go of my hopes.

Letting go of my desires.

And I’m, more than anything, astounded that I’ve actually been able to do it.
