Girl, Delulu is Not the Solulu — Having Faith Is.

If you’ve been anywhere on the internets, you’ll see the common phrase that Delulu is the Solulu. Translation? Being delusional is the key to solving your problems. It’s all fun and games, but honestly? I don’t quite subscribe to this message.

I’m all for pursuing your wildest dreams, but why must we do it under the guise of being delusional? The definition of delusional is literally ‘characterized by or holding false beliefs or judgments about external reality.’ I think as women, we already get enough slack as it is. We shouldn’t diminish our hopes and dreams into delusional thinking. They are worth taking seriously.

So no… delulu is not the solulu. Having faith is.

Faith is having a strong belief in the possibility that something might happen or that it will happen. That’s the kind of positivity and light I want to shine over my dreams and goals. Not that I was so crazy to think it was real, but rather I believed in it so much that I worked towards making it a reality.

I’d rather be grounded in faith than lost in wishful thinking. Faith empowers us to move forward with intention, resilience, and purpose. So as you chase your dreams, let it be with conviction and trust in yourself — not because you’re delusional, but because you know you’re capable.
