Investing In Yourself Is Not STUPID.

I see this all the time in both myself and in womenI work with, and friends… afraid to invest in themselves and their dreams for fear of it being “stupid”.

Afraid to take risks and spend money on themselves that they would HAPPILY spend on others (their partners, their kids, their pets) without a second thought.

And what I want to say about that is that investing in yourself is NEVER STUPID.

The fact that you aren’t believing yourself worthy of the risk, but others are… is very telling about how much you’re valuing yourself.

Believing in yourself and your worth and putting money, energy, and time towards your dreams is NOT stupid.

“But what if I fail??” your mind will say. And to that I say, do you not deserve to be supported?? Do you not deserve a vote of faith no matter what?? Do you not deserve to fall and get picked up too?? Just like everyone else you love?

Would you tell your child you won’t pay for her to go to danceclass because you’re afraid she’ll look like a fool and it will be a waste?

Of courseyou wouldn’t!! Because you’ll love her no matter what. You don’t expect her dance class to turn her into a prima ballerina in a week. You would consider it a gift to her, a precious (and fun!) way she can experience herself…
