Saying no to short term gratification can lead to long term success! 📈
We all want to do the things that light our souls on fire! But it doesn’t always benefit us to do so in certain circumstances.
I recently was planning a trip to Atlanta, for this week in fact, and I was so excited!
Unfortunately due to my fanatical situation and procrastination on flights, I was unable to make the trip happen. But there was a lot of good that came out of the situation!
I was able to pick up some shifts at work that I had asked off, as well, I was given the opportunity to get back on a film set and get some hours there as well.
Rather than fretting on what my financial situation would’ve been had I said “screw it” and gone on my trip, I stayed and multiple opportunities to earn presented themselves.
While I was really hoping for this trip, it benefited me more by saying no. It wasn’t an easy decision but I’m so grateful for the choice I made.
It’s more important to me that I set myself up for success, that way I won’t have to find myself in these types of situations in the future and I can live life the way I want! ✨
