Self care is being honest with yourself about your negative habits. It's taking ownership of your faults and growing from them. It's diverting from negative space to positive one. It's creating balance. It's watering your own garden. It's being gentle but honest with yourself.
If you made wrong choice and realized the mistake much later, it's okay. Even if it changed course of your life drastically, it's still okay. You did what you felt was best. You have already suffered a lot due to that. Worrying is a waste of time. Forgive yourself. Start afresh.
If things didn't go as planned, it doesn't mean you failed. If everything doesn't work out, that doesn't make life less meaningful. Great people also make mistakes. They just learn from it and never quit. Some of your darkest chapters will lead you to the most sparkling chapters.
The joy of the heart lies in life’s everyday moments. While grand ideas may be inspiring, it’s the simplicity of reality that matters most. Discover your happiness in simple things, calm emotions, and the company of good people.
Believe that you are meant to have the most awesome blessings. When you keep positive opinion about your worth, it adds to confidence. It makes you excited about your goals. It raises your expectations from life. It makes you look forward to challenges with hope, not fear.
When you feel stuck, more than circumstances it is the mind that traps you. You are not lost. You are scared to venture into an unknown territory. Sometimes it's good not to overthink and just go with the flow. Surrender the outcome to divine and trust that you will be guided.
Learn to find ways and get help to begin to shed or work past the little and larger emotional things that weigh you down. A “lighter backpack” can allow for more nimble travel thru life
Life is better when you make space for what you love. This world will rob you of every ounce of happiness that you possess - if you let it.
You have to be intentional about giving yourself something to look forward to. You have to prioritize your peace and joy.
What happened in the past has no power on you. What others think about you has no power on you. What you choose to do with the present moment is the ultimate power. You can turn life around. You can create a plot twist. Water your dreams now to see them blossom tomorrow.
When in a new chapter of life, start with showing grace to your journey. You are here for the first time. You aren't one of those who are scared to start. You are standing tall amidst uncertainty though it's all new. You are doing it fine. Be kind to yourself. It's ok to be slow.
When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves. Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude.
In any environment we will either find inspiration or hindrance. Try and put effort towards seeing possibilities in most any environment. At the very least it will limit the hindrance that is many times self imposed.
Situations in life change like seasons. If you are going through your worst days, this isn't the end of the world. Times will change. You will rise after the fall. The sun will shine bright and warm. You will heal. Better days are coming. Keep pushing through the storms.
Don't lose the people who are willing to overlook your mistakes because they care. They don't leave when things are tough with you. They aren't weak. You matter to them. They are rare and value your connection. Value them back. Cherish them. Such souls show up once in a lifetime.
Life doesn't always show up the way we expect. Perfect plans fail. Things don't work out the way we want. But there's nothing we can do about it. There's no point in finding fault with yourself or blaming something. Accept that you gave it your best. Surrender and start afresh.
Water has no effect on plastic flowers. Sharing your emotions with emotionally unavailable people won't help you build an emotional connection with them. This is not a rejection of you, but rather a limitation of their own emotional capacity. Invest in people who can reciprocate.
You overcame a lot in life. You survived all your struggles in the past. It isn't easy but you can do it again. You are now wiser and smarter. You deserve a softer and calmer life. You will get there. Better times will embrace you. Even behind clouds, the sun shines bright.
It's ok to not be ok. But it's not ok to give up on yourself. Step out into the world. See things. Meet people. Do it even when you don't want to. Do it even if it feels like a task. Take it one step at a time. Turn pain into power and wounds into wisdom. Sometimes this is enough to heal.
Some people we meet are like clouds. They stir up a storm but once you are through with it, you are a changed person. They are meant to teach you something. They bring you on the path to rainbows and sunshine. They push you to show your potential and trigger changes in your life.
