You deserve to honour your needs, wants and desires

Stop waiting to achieve something first

I’d just finished my weekly Barre Pilates session when I got a craving for a coffee.

I remembered the new drive thru that’s recently opened and decided to make a detour on the way home.

But then a little voice spoke:

“Isn’t that a waste of money? You could just make a coffee at home”

I started to listen to the voice, deciding that maybe it was right.

It was wrong.

I desired a coffee.

Buying a coffee in that moment would make me feel good.

It’d make me feel abundant.

It’d mean I was honouring myself, my needs and my desires.

Something I haven’t always found easy.

It’s taken a long time to realise I am WORTHY of my desires.

The big ones, medium ones and tiny ones.

Like buying a coffee.

I drove through the drive thru, ordered my coffee + ya know what?

I bloody enjoyed it.

Decaf, soy, hazelnut mocha ☕️

Repeat after me: I deserve my desires.

This is my reminder to you that you deserve to honour your desires.

What little thing can you do today to honour your desires?
