Every relationship has it's learning curve. We date people that are emotionally unavailable. We pick partners that have different goals. We meet at a wrong time. We can't work out our differences. We are insecure. They are jealous. We f*** up.
So another day, I heard this saying: “Only dead fish goes with a flow.”
And wow, what a reaction it struck in me. ⚡️
Many will tell you that going with a flow is a good thing but here is why it's not.
Going with the flow means living life unconsciously on autopilot without interfering with a thing.
It means I am not consciously creating what I want. ❌
I am not trying to change a thing, but I am silently hoping that something will change. ❌
It means I am accepting whatever comes my way... Perhaps I don't even pay attention. ❌
And here’s a scary thing...
Living on autopilot sooner or later makes one feel lost or stuck because, like that dead fish, she risks ending up nowhere. Certainly not in the place she chose. 🚀
