Being disliked by people with ugly spirits is protection. I have no desire to be connected to people who operate from jealousy, wickedness, negativity, entitlement, manipulation or a lack of integrity. Life is spiritual. Not every heart is safe to stay connected to..
Keep your problems smaller than your life. A flat tire is a flat tire. A bad meeting is a bad meeting. A canceled flight is just an extra two hours. These things become catastrophes when you let them. But they stay manageable when you remember the depth of your real life- the people you love, the work you care about, the beautiful years still ahead. Zoom out. Fit your reaction to the size of the problem.
turns out, reading a lot, exercising, loving people without expecting anything back, protecting your alone time, focusing only on improving yourself, and sometimes staying out late with friends who make you laugh until it hurts is a pretty good way to live.
Every woman needs a season where nobody knows what she’s doing. Not her ex. Not her friends. Not social media. Just her, God, and the plan. Some blessings grow better in silence, and everybody don’t deserve access to the version of you that’s still being built.
I’m so glad I was raised to not have an entitled mentality. Nobody has to help you. Nobody has to feel sorry for you. Nobody owes you anything. This is the mindset that literally carries me through life. I expect nothing from no one and I expect everything from MYSELF. I owe me. It’s not up to anybody else how my life turns out but me. Once you program your mind to think this way you are literally going to be unstoppable.
The best decision l ever made was to be quiet. I have nothing to prove. I'm not convincing anyone that I'm a great person. I'm not fixing what I didn't break. I'm not fighting for anyone to see my worth. Whatever you do is on you. Just hope you don't regret it. As for me, I'm moving forward, free and at peace.
Love your fucking life. Take pictures of everything. Tell people you love them. Talk to random strangers. Do things you're scared to do. Fuck it, because so many of us die and no one remembers a thing we did. Take your life and make it the best story in the world.Don't waste that shit.
What a privilege it is to afford a gym, buy healthy food, pay bills, have legs that walk, eyes that see, a brain that functions, work every day, and take our bodies to their full potential.
Having a fun partner is everything. being in a relationship with someone who always wants to travel and try new restaurants and do new things is amazing. i love a spontaneous partner.
