Unveiling Self-Actualization: What It Really Is (and Isn't!!)

I recently saw a post in a Facebook group about striving to embody your full potential. The comments were flooded with people sharing how they once tried, only to find it self-defeating, exhausting, stressful, and leading them to chase perfection. They concluded that the concept was just too hard and unattainable.

I've been reflecting on this for a while, pondering the ideas of "self-actualization" and "highest potential." What I've realized is that there are some major misconceptions about these concepts. None of this is supposed to make you stressed out, feel like you're failing, or make you feel like a loser.

Instagram; A Microcosm of Real Life

Hey friends,

I’ve kind of realized that I talk about social media and our relationships with it a lot. I don’t know, it kind of fascinates me to be honest. I was thinking about how it all started for me… Once upon a time, a friend was telling me about facebook, and if you went to certain schools you could use it. Soon I jumped on the bandwagon, and began oversharing like everyone else (this is what I had for lunch, this is my dog sleeping, this is how I’m feeling today, this is me going to yoga. haha!). Then Instagram came onto the scene.
