When you are real and true to yourself, you find the support you need from people who are aligned with who you are and are becoming.
We have to leave behind those who are triggered by our growth so we can embrace those on the same journey as we are on.
But it begins with being honest with self and not needing to be validated. Validation comes as a result of doing what you knew deep down to be true and good for you.
Your growth will trigger those who ignored their potential. ⬅️ There are too many words in this post I like to quote but I have to choose one n this is it.
Your writings have become more powerful with each new post n your confidence is evident in them.
"...being real overpowers being liked." The reality is that you will not like yourself if you are not real. So the decision is 1) to be real and like yourself...or 2) be inauthentic and liked by everyone else?
The answer is clearly #1 but besides liking yourself, you will also attract others who like you for you. They appreciate your authenticity, flaws, learnings, growth and envelope pushing ideas without needing to fit you into a box and without needing to agree with you on every topic.
Such a powerful piece, Sprenko.

Thank you for this comment, Siri —“You will not like yourself if you're not real.”
And you're spot on with attracting others who like you for who you are.
That's the beauty in growing through self-love because it naturally attracts support not by obligation but by connection.
