    How is everyone feeling this week? ❤️

      it's been a crazy week as I am losing my salon business of 4.5 years by the end of next week. it's been a rollercoaster ride but I think I'm mentally ready to move on from it because it's been a cage for me trying to pay a weekly rent of $750 a week and I am glad that burden is about to be over. I held on struggling because I was worried where my clients would get their services. but now I see they are flourishing why I am just trying to keep my head above water all these years. now I have created passive income that can pay my bills and I've outgrown being a hairdresser. I do have a lot of financial loss from it but I have to heal and give myself room to rest and get back to me. lately the salon business has been getting in the way of my other side hustles that are actually promising and I really want to give that the attention they deserve...

    We have been conditioned to ignore our spiritual selves in order to serve, to show up and be productive in an uncaring system and the backlash is really being felt today as we speak. Our collective conciousness as a generation are coming to terms that we have literally been lied to, put in a very unfair situation curated by people who walked before us, and are expected to just accept and compromise. We have to bear the burden of unlearning all the nonsense we have been taught while trying to navigate an inadequate system designed to swallow you and spit you out. Life is so much more simple than we think, it's like you said, there's good times and bad times, both are required for us to grow and to relay that information to the next person.

      bingo. I took a year to live with my parents while i study to get into IT and i became depressed since i was not working. Like "dead beat. parasite. You should be out there being a productive member of society!" i wasn't playing video games and getting fat, but these thoughts of needing to grind and work kept popping up. like i was conditioned not working every day is evil

    I've come to understand these days as like the body's last attempt to get myself to slow down and take care of myself, its usually fatigue or I "forgot to eat," too often in one week... "bad days" are just days where I need to reflect on how bad I've been treating myself.

    It's you talking about off days on one of my off days for me 😩The duality of life is beautiful when you get the hang of it. There's no good without bad. Life isn't linear and that's okay. I appreciate your depth and insights on meaningful topics, Lynette!🥺

    you're my safe space on youtube :) i totally feel that being inconsistent can make you feel blegh, because like you said it's a way to express yourself and move the blockages away. i'm struggling with finding myself and what kinds of content i want to make. i think the fear of not knowing what to produce also keeps me stagnant. but i like your dog analogy, can't keep running forever!

    • @LynetteAdkins
      @LynetteAdkins  3 роки тому +1

      I'm so glad the vids resonate with you! I totally understand that feeling, I definitely felt the same way for the first few years I was making content. Have fun with it and enjoy this part of the journey! Wishing you the best!💕

    Adrienne houghton recently said something she learned in her 20s was to “prepare to pivot”. Changed my perspective. Life is unexpected, ups and downs . But like you said, the sooner you learn to accept the lows and view them as learning experiences the more you can use them as tools to propel you. Prepare to pivot.

  • @Lilo-tw9hm
    @Lilo-tw9hm 3 роки тому +15

    Thank you for this video…I believe this is something that needs to be talked about so much more. With this movement towards enlightenment, I feel so many people think we have to be positive and always “on”, but that’s so far from the truth. It’s to become self aware and find peace within ourselves for who we truly are, NOT becoming a perfect zen robot. There will always be ups and downs highs and lows within life and within ourselves, but that’s all apart of the journey.

  • @JonathanSorunke
    @JonathanSorunke 3 роки тому +10

    Great take! The more you try and fight those "down" moments, the longer they last and the harder they become to get out of them. Great video!!

  • @priscipline
    @priscipline 3 роки тому +2

    It's really just a season! I had to take a step back and think about the last time I was down for an extended period and I always figured it out and came back. I think I gave myself more grace then because I was younger and I forgave myself for not knowing what I didn't know as a factor of age. To think that because I'm older now and I haven't figured things out enough to not even have to reach those lows again is adding more stress. Accepting that growth hurts and that's ok! 🙏🏾

  • @themindlessmess
    @themindlessmess 3 роки тому +5

    Girl, I keep saying again how you read my mind!! I yesterday just did a brain dump saying how slow life has become recently. On one hand things are moving when I take a step back and look, but looking at everyday level, everything feels same but I guess you can’t fast forward life. You have to live through it, savour it, do little things that make you happy and take small little consistent steps to you goals! I feel like this comment is also me reminding myself about this because trust me, I do too forget about it sometimes!!

    • @LynetteAdkins
      @LynetteAdkins  3 роки тому +1

    Growth is difficult and a long journey.
    I’m taking my time rethinking some things that I’ve been taught in life.

    Lynette. Wow. I'm you are truly a vessel of wisdom. An empathetic soul. I'm not to prideful to learn from someone younger. I'm watching this again to take notes.. What you said on fear? My God. Powerful. I have a fear that may be silly to many but I just faced it over the weekend. Long story short. Creating videos and being seen has been my fear. Watching myself. Facing myself. Someone asked me to be on their you tube show and it was uncomfortable but I knew I had to do it. It's calling me for some time I have all of this talent and I can't keep hiding it by playing the background. Time to step into the light. I see the dog. I'm looking at it and dealing with why it's been an issue. Hey, I did it though. No turning back.

    Hi Lynette! I love this video, on my 'off' days where I'm not feeling my best I notice that sleep, prioritization, and a good laugh help me the best. When we're constantly going, we need time for our actions to marinate into life as patterns or completed steps. If we never take a breath to catch up with ourselves we will miss the beauty of what is already beginning to bloom within us.
    Sometimes flowers are closed focused on pulling water up their stems and sometimes they're open and pretty lol idk but thats my quote for the day

    Well stated vlog Lynette. Most of what you covered in this narrative is what is termed life. Metaphorically speaking, we all have something "breaking out." We are not our skin, nor our eyelashes, or fingernails. I feel that most of your viewers like you because just you being you.
    Failure is not Failure unless one just quits. Setbacks are simply an integral part of success .
