TRI NURAINI

I was thinking about some fragments of my life in the past, and oh, I’m so embarrassed… I really do. 😳

There are many things in my life that I’m not proud of, here are a few of them:

• In college, I cried in the dean’s office because I wasn’t happy with my final exam score
• When I built and managed a big team for the first time, I screwed up because of my unprofessional behavior. I became a public enemy in my own team, and I got depressed for months because of this
• I let myself be bullied in a toxic relationship few years ago because I was too afraid to be alone
• I wrote many personal stories in my book that sometimes I wish I didn’t write because it’s too personal and I see myself as a completely different person now
• I “chased” a guy abroad amid pandemic, only to get rejected and got my heart broken into pieces
• And really, there are so many more..

Just by mentioning some of them, really, I’m so so embarrassed. There are many mistakes and stupid things I did in the past that I hope I will never do again in the future.

However…

When I think about it, I’m kind of proud of myself. I made it through safe and sound!

I don’t regret any of them.

All those experiences, my mistakes and flaws, are the ones who made me who I am today. I forgive myself for who I was.

It is a sign of growth. 🌱

Embarrassment is a sign of growth.

I guess, feeling embarrassed of our past is not so bad after all..

So, what’s one insight you get from your past self?

Share with me your insight if you feel called.

My wish for you is that you always remember to be gentle with yourself and proud of how far you have come.

Life is meant to be celebrated. ❤️✨

With love,
Tri
