You can do anything you want to.

No pressure.

Your decision.

You don’t have to choose.

Ignore what everyone else thinks you should do.

When you find yourself saying ‘I should’, ask yourself, “What is it that I actually WANT?”

March to your own beat.

Your drum beat (if you have a drum).

Your heart beat (everyone has a heart).

The negative thoughts that fill your head? The ones that say you can’t? Say HI! to them. Slap them on the back and smile.

Accept them but don’t listen too closely to what they say (they often talk bullshit).

They’re there to protect you, that’s all. Nothing to get angry at. Or be scared of. They want to lure you back into the warm enclave of your comfort zone.

It’s safe there.

That’s the message we’re told: Stay safe.

It’s the message we also tell ourselves: Stay safe.

Don’t speak to strangers.

Never question.

We know better than you.

Stick with what you know.

Get a good job and work to survive (even if you don’t like your job).

Earn well.

Don’t push yourself. Stop showing off.

You can’t do that.

Buy a car. A sensible one.

Don’t say that.

Get a better job.

Earn even more and start saving for your retirement.

Climb the corporate ladder because this equals success and achievement.

Look forward to Fridays because they mean freedom and happiness (for 2 whole days!)

Look forward to your next holiday because it means freedom and happiness (for 2 whole weeks!)

Life sucks and then you die.

Stick with the pack.

Be thin.

Dreams are unrealistic and impossible. Don’t follow them. Stop being a dreamer and wake up.

Who do you think you are?

Passion is obsessional and obsession is a bad thing.

 

FUCK THAT.

 

You can do anything you want to.

And you know it.
