i'm in love with this quote:
"if you're persistent, you'll get it. if you're consistent, you'll keep it. and if you're grateful, you'll attract more of it."
Breakups in your 30s hit differently.
It’s not the same as heartbreak at 21.
At 21, you cry, vent to friends, go out, distract yourself, and somehow you heal. Back then, life felt long, full of possibilities, what ifs, and second chances.
But in your late 20s or as you approach your 30s, it feels different. You are not only losing a person. You are losing plans, routines, and the version of yourself that was building a future with them.
ngl, everything that happened this year had a purpose. it showed me who was really for me and who wasn’t. it taught me boundaries, taught me to stop oversharing, and taught me to stop doing the most for people who don’t do the most for me.
So many people are afraid to start something new because they think they’re about to lose what they have. But losing what you have only matters if you can’t get it back. And the reality is - the door to mediocrity is always open. So you have one of the few asymmetric bets in life. Risk nothing to gain everything.
When you go after your dreams, you’re not closing any doors, just opening them.
hardest pill i swallow this year was learning that no matter how good you could be to someone, no matter how much you love them, they can & they will turn their back on you & there's absolutely nothing you can do but suck it up & keep moving forward.
