I’m falling apart. Can you put me back together?
You’re not broken — you’re just shedding the shit that’s slowing you down.
You’re NOT falling apart — you’re finally levelling up
Ever feel like you’re crumbling under the weight of it all?
Like someone sneezed near your life, and suddenly the whole thing’s falling apart?
Yeah, it’s that slow-motion catastrophe where everything is a mess, and you’re left clutching the pieces, begging for a glue gun.
We all have those days, right?
Listen, let’s cut the crap — you’re not some delicate snowflake crumbling under pressure.
You’re not broken, you’re not in pieces, and you’re definitely not a puzzle that needs to be solved.
What’s happening is simple: all the stuff that’s been holding you back?
It’s falling off.
You don’t need to put it back together because it’s not supposed to come back.
Ever hear people say, “I’m holding it together”?
That’s just code for “I’m carrying a bunch of useless shit that’s making me miserable.”
Newsflash: you don’t need to hold it together.
You need to let it go so you can finally move on.
The pieces are on the floor for a reason — stop trying to fix them
You’re looking at your life like it’s a disaster, but here’s the truth: if pieces are falling off, they’re supposed to.
That job you hate?
That relationship that’s draining you?
That self-doubt you cling to like a safety net?
All of it is falling off because it’s dead weight.
Stop scrambling to pick it up — you don’t need it anymore.
Think about it — what if, instead of going into panic mode, you actually took a second to look at what’s falling away and asked yourself, “Do I even want this back?”
Most of the time, the answer is going to be a hard NO.
You’re not losing anything — you’re getting rid of the stuff that’s been slowing you down.
You’re not breaking down, you’re breaking through
Here’s where most people get it wrong.
They think feeling like crap means they’re broken.
No, you’re just growing.
What you’re feeling right now?
That’s the discomfort of growth.
It’s like going to the gym — no one enjoys the burn when they’re in the middle of a set, but that’s where the progress happens.
Same thing here.
You’re shedding all the garbage you’ve been carrying, and it feels uncomfortable.
It feels messy.
But that’s because you’re in the middle of levelling up.
Growth isn’t pretty, but it’s worth it.
What’s left? Only the good stuff
So, what happens when you let go of all the crap?
