Who You Want To Become

Who You Want To Become

When it come to who you want to become, relax.

Cut yourself a break, if you ask me. And be patient.

It is all a process. And it takes time.

We are all so rushed and the (not-so-secret) secret is that most of what you want will not happen in this way.

I love this idea of slowing down and turning our aspirations into a process.

Let’s get up today and practice who we want to be.

This can be in a religious context, or even in a vocational one.

You bear fruit with patience, after all.

And I like that I am a rough draft too.

It’s given me a lot of comfort knowing we’re all rough drafts of the people we’re still becoming. 

-Bob Goff, Everybody Always
