Life as an adult is way too steep.
Use the child in you to make that leap

Listen to your inner child
with the ears of a compassionate adult.

If we exclude our inner child
from our thoughts,
what remains is an empty playground.

Looking for my lost childhood,
Under the layers of
my subconscious mind.

If you continue to lock your inner child
out of your consciousness,
you will never be able to play ball
with the real you again.

Sometimes when you have a great idea.
Don’t overthink it be like a child
dive right intake and your chances.

Childhood dreams are never impossible.
Adulthood and a change in mindset
are the only obstacles that stand
in between their achievements.

The child in me struggles to stay alive,
I make sure he survives…
Wanted to grow up too soon,
Now adulting I discover is no boon!

In the depth of my thoughts
lies the inner child of mine,
yearning to revive the lost childhood.

The unfulfilled desires of a man
keep haunting his subconscious mind
even though he is grown up.

Holding on to the joys of childhood
allows the mind an escape to happiness.

In our mind’s eye we are still a child
who wants to play.

When it is difficult to achieve a goal,
persevere, reach down deep
and consult your soul.

The memories of the past,
Will always last.
They’re always tucked deep in the mind,
To relive,
And never part.

Never let the inner child
stand in horizon of the mind.

We never forget the dreams
of our childhood

Sometimes you must get out
of your own head to reach your goals

In the recesses of your mind
there is always that little boy
you once were

If a thought gets lost in your mind
just kick it around for a few minutes
and it will comeback.

I’m still that scared kid
not willing to take a risk
