Plus, after meeting with the 24 other Prudential Emerging Visionaries and her Prudential employee coach, who is helping her develop specific action steps to connect with her target audience, Collins has more confidence in a “grander path” for her work. She’ll even be able to lease an office space that allows for a live audience. Thankfully, the funding she earned from being selected as a Prudential Emerging Visionary is going toward upgraded recording equipment, the support of expert producers, and skill-building classes to help her become a better host and public speaker. Of course, as with most new projects, funding for “Perfect Timing” has come entirely out of Collins’ pocket. One of Collins’ favorite moments so far has been raising $7,000 to take 200 underserved girls to see “The Little Mermaid” on its opening weekend, to “let them know they are enough” and that there’s an “older sister” in their corner.
#IM DONE ADULTING HOW TO#
More people need to learn how to wash that plate clean of their memory and put back in the cupboard to look back on and learn from.That mission statement has since evolved beyond creating inspiring content and has expanded to hosting events and speaking publicly at summits and workshops. Maybe I’ve been raised to not be a quitter unless something really isn’t working out for the better, but I never give up on something unless I know it’s my time to walk away. And if he doesn’t, continue to be done with him because he’s not worth keeping around. If he comes back to you after you leave like you said you would, clearly he likes you enough to make things work. The moment you walk away to do your own thing will be the deciding factor if he’s worth keeping around or not. Saying it won’t necessarily make him change, acting upon it will.
If you go crawling back after every single fight where you say, “I’m done” or “we’re done,” what message is that sending him? That he can continue to get away with that behavior because whenever you say those two words, you don’t mean it. In my opinion, by saying “I’m done” and going back to that person makes you’re feeling weak and shows that you’re not fully respecting yourself. Why? Because you didn’t have time to process it and think things through the way you should.ĭon’t throw that term out unless you are done for good. You know the second you get an apology or you see their name pop up on your phone screen that a smile will creep it’s way back on your face and you’ll be crawling back to him. We’ve all been on the phone with a friend or crying in the shower where we say “I’m done.” There’s nothing wrong with expressing yourself in that way, especially if you’re hurt.īut don’t expect for yourself to truly be done. We’ve all been there where our significant other does something to cause your body to go numb from head to toe, and ultimately break your heart whether your relationship ends or not. The reality is that you can’t just push them aside and you need to take some time to process everything and then you have the ability to say “I’m done” and genuinely mean it. You only push them aside for a little while to feel like you can move on with your life. Think of our emotions as if they were the food on the plate. Then, we would get the disappointing news that we weren’t and our quick moment of happiness and joy is soon back into sadness. We would proudly declare “I’m done,” thinking that if we left a little bit on the plate, the pain and suffering would be over.
We would feel so angry, upset, and frustrated that we would do a poor job at finishing our meal. Think back to when we were kids and our parents would force us to eat a meal we didn’t want to eat. The reality is that it doesn’t always help. False hope prevents us from being truly “done.” We only want to be done because we think if we are we will feel better. We might say those words, but deep down we really hope to hear from them again or have a second chance with them. There’s no way in hell we can say “I’m done” when our emotions are all twisted up inside of us. When saying “I’m done” while referring to a relationship of any kind, we say it while we are stuck in an emotional rut we can’t seem to pull ourselves out of. But other times? We don’t always mean it. Most of the time when we say those two words it’s only proven to be true when it’s an accomplishment to be proud or excited about, or after something that was moving by painfully slow and being referred to as a celebration of finally finishing. They could be referring to completing a task that took a long time to work on, finishing a long day of work, or when the person you like is causing you pain. “I’m done” is a common phrase said by people almost every single day.
