Today’s thoughts: Why CAN’T should be a CURSE WORD 

When I was growing up, I was never allowed to say “I can’t” at home. It was like a curse word that I’d get told off after using. Over time, it has slowly worked its way back into my regular vocabulary which did not have good effects.

Over the past 2 years, I got so used to saying “I can’t pass this class” or “I can’t grow my blog” that I 100% believed it. I believed my doubts even though I was fully capable (and passed every class I ever took)!

When I think back to taking my exams, the main thing I remember is how sure I was in my failure. I can’t help but shudder at the thought of all the time I wasted psyching myself out with the two little words “I can’t.”

I don’t promise to never doubt myself again (because I’m human after all), but I am going to try to remove those two little words from my vocabulary.

I know I won’t succeed at everything- but at least I won’t regret the time I used creating a self-fulfilled prophecy. I CAN learn from my failures and move on to be stronger.

Today’s Outfit Details: 

This casual look gives me all the Dior vibes from their kaleidoscope prints. This top is from the H&M conscious line which makes me incredibly happy to know that I’m choosing a sustainable option. Here are the full details.
