Permission

It’s ok to want something.

It’s ok to stick to what you want.

It’s ok if someone you like doesn’t get it.

It’s ok to have a vision that alienates some people.

Even people you respect.

It’s ok to ask those people you respect to simply trust you on this one.

It’s ok to not make everyone happy.

Everyone’s happiness is not your responsibility.

It’s ok if things get awkward.

It’s ok if there’s silence.

It’s ok to have a plan.

It’s ok to be unwavering in that plan.

It’s ok to change that plan.

It’s ok to have energy & motion when others are are content as Debby Downers or the Devils Advocates.

It’s ok to not have the entire plan right now.

It’s ok to not back down even though backing down would put the moment at ease.

You have permission to have lasting motivation, passion and belief in something that is not easily understood by others.
