Is It Okay To Be Awesome?

2 min readFeb 5, 2015

In fact, it’s preferable. Highly-recommended.

Being a 10 as you are right now. Starting each day in front of the mirror screeming; “Me, Wheeeeeeeeh”.

It’s OK to be the smartest, the brightest, the cutest, the sassiest, the most creative, the most devoted, the most playful, the most well-versed AND the most ambitious and passionate person in the room.

It’s OK to annoy a lot of other people who are the opposite of the above.

It’s OK to know exactly what you want and to GO for it — guns a-blazing, yet still stay relaxed and calm.

It’s OK to feel, express and practice joy, gratefulness, hope, faith and pride.

It’s OK to ignore everybody while pursuing your dreams.

It’s OK to be an artist, writer or performer, and BE wealthy.

It’s OK to start you own new ‘job’ next to your regular job.

It’s OK to steal art as long as you transform it into your indisputable own art.

It’s OK to have dreams that make no sense to the casual observer — and to imagine the manifestations of it.

It’s OK to kick ass and start your own revolution not just a business.

It’s OK to be pissed off when you use the energy of it in a positive way to transform smallness into awesomeness.

It’s OK to be a creative supernova.
