The biggest lesson I’ve learned in 2020: You don't have to hustle to feel successful 😤.⠀ ⠀ That came from being a freelancer for over a decade.⠀ ⠀ I had to #hustle hustle hustle… and said “Yes” to everything.⠀ ⠀ 🌟 That was a confirmation that I was in high demand.⠀ 🌟 That made me felt like a go-getter.⠀ 🌟 That made me felt accomplished.⠀ 🌟 That felt so rewarding that I just wanted to hustle more and more and more.⠀ ⠀ My self-worth was defined by how much I could accomplish. 🙋🏻♀️⠀ ⠀ My definition of “success” was based on how many gigs I could book in a week. 💁🏻♀️⠀ ⠀ I was addicted to that feeling.⠀ ⠀ But that was just #workaholism, and that shouldn’t be the synonym of “success”. 🤦🏻♀️⠀ ⠀ Hustling non-stop just means I never have time to stop and think, I forget what I were hustling for in the first place. 🤷🏻♀️⠀ ⠀ This injury has really forced me to pause and think. 🙅🏻♀️⠀ ⠀ Now that I am running my own business, “being my own boss” should also mean I can prioritize taking care of myself, making my own schedule, and slowing down when I need to!⠀ ⠀ I can love my work, be phenomenal at it without hustling all the time.⠀ ⠀ What do you think of the glamourization of Hustle Culture?⠀
