BLANK SPACE
I struggled for a minute to figure out what to name this post. I decided to call it blank space because it is these gaps in our minds that we feel empty and we are floating in space. Today I want to talk about falling into this space where you feel like you have lost track of your goals and dreams and you are just floating in life going day by day without achieving what you wish to achieve.
I have come to believe that we enter this period of space when our goals and dreams are not being achieved as fast as we wish they were.
It is easy to set goals and to dream all day what we want to achieve However, it is much harder to actually have the patience and persistence to wait for the right timing to achieve these dreams.
This blank space of loss hope let’s call it, can be a tough place to be in.
Hell, you might not even realize you are in it. It is when you start to just go through the motions of life, but you have no real drive anymore to try to get what you really want. It is a tough place to be in. I have struggled with this myself. In the fashion business, a lot of the fortune of what happens to us career-wise is a waiting game and out of our control. I like to believe it is tougher than other jobs in the fact that if you have mastered posing, confidence, and your runway walk then you cannot grow and become more knowledgeable as you can in other fields of work. Sure there is always room for improvement, however, you cannot do anything to get the dream job if they simply do not like you.
It is kind of a career of waiting and wishing.
This is not about just the fashion business, but when these dreams are not fulfilled instantly we have to remember and manifest the feeling of what it will be like when we do achieve them.
You can do anything you put your mind to and if you once fail do not be scared to try and try again.
Life is a process and like I preach so often we all have our own timeline. So when you fall back into that blank space, be kind to yourself. Become clear with the goals and dreams you wish to achieve again, imagine them happening to you, and keep pushing to achieve all that you want to achieve. The first step to achieving these things is to first believe you can. That all starts within. So stay positive, stay patient, and keep fighting.
Do not forget that feeling of what it will feel like you everything you wished for came true.
You got this!
