You are enough

Updated: Jun 26, 2020

Even when you don’t think so.


This post is designed to 'pick you up,' when you forget your worth. Like a warm hug from Mum.

A reminder, about all the things, you can so easily forget when the weight of the world is on your shoulders and seems too much.

You, absolutely matter!

Firstly I ask you to please remember why you started.

Remember why you continued.

Remember why you are still here. Remember why you get out of bed everyday.

Every person’s ‘why‘ is going to be different. And every person’s why is beautiful. It’s the why I am here. It’s the vision in your mind when someone’s asked the younger version of yourself ‘what do you want to be when you grow up.’ It’s the why that I keep pushing, each day. To Keep making a better life for myself. A better future for myself, my family.

And to make my people, happy. It’s the why that I want to keep going. Need to.

Don’t let your younger self down.

The dream isn’t dead, until you stop trying!


It’s the why I keep putting myself out there, again and again. It’s the why I won’t settle for a mediocre life. That I won’t settle for anything that what I’m capable of living. This makes me strive to do Something passionate with my life. And why I strive to share a passionate life, with that someone else. And also why I will never give up on that someone.

It’s the why, that I come back to the track and the field each day. Knowing I can go one better than yesterday. It’s the why, that gets me through training sessions I train so hard I puke. It’s the why that makes me want to work hard now, so my family won’t have it so hard. It’s the why that makes me want to make something of myself, so I can use that to make a difference to someone in need’s life. To the greater world.

It’s the why, that I am writing this.

To encourage you.

To please, no matter how hard it gets.

No matter how bad you want to throw in the towel.

Don’t stop doing what you’re doing. With whatever you’ve got. Right now.

You always have one more round left!

Someone, somewhere is cheering for you.

And someone you don’t even know believe’s in you.

I believe in you.


Don’t give up on your why.

Please, Don’t give up on yourself!


Until next time's thoughts...


Keep Dreaming & Believing,


Xx Lani.
