The problem with the box

This is my first post here, hello, ladies! 😃
Since the beginning of this year, I’ve been reflecting a lot on who I’m meant to be, what I should be doing, and the life I want to create for myself.
When I was younger, my biggest dream was to be an author. But as I’ve grown older, I’ve realized I want more than just that.
I’m highly intelligent and creative, which means there are so many things I’m capable of. For a long time, I tried to fit into a box, trying to define myself as just one thing.
A few days ago, it finally hit me I can’t fit into that box. In fact, I’m bigger than the box, and it simply can’t contain me. I’m not talking about a literal box, of course.
What I mean is, I don’t have to limit myself to one role or identity. My mind is filled with so many possibilities, and I’ve decided it’s time to embrace all of them. No more limiting myself.
I still want to be a writer, but now I want to be a writer who wears many hats and excels in all of them. I want to be a badass women’s rights lawyer and SDG5 advocate. I want to work with international organizations. I want to publish multiple books before I turn 50. I want to be a speaker who inspires women to rise higher.
I know it’s going to take a lot of hard work, but I’m ready for it.
I’m open to recommendations and suggestions. If you have any ideas on how I can achieve these goals, I’d love to hear them. I’m also seeking global opportunities.
