Stop worrying about what can go wrong, and get excited about what can go right.
A Path That’s Right for Someone Else
Stop comparing where you’re at with where everyone else is. It doesn’t move you farther ahead, improve your situation, or help you find peace. It just feeds your shame, fuels your feelings of inadequacy, and ultimately, it keeps you stuck. The reality is that there is no one correct path in life. Everyone has their own unique journey. A path that’s right for someone else won’t necessarily be a path that’s right for you. And that’s okay. Your journey isn’t right or wrong, or good or bad. It’s just different. Your life isn’t meant to look like anyone else’s because you aren’t like anyone else. You’re a person all your own with a unique set of goals, obstacles, dreams, and needs. So stop comparing, and start living. You may not have ended up where you intended to go. But trust, for once, that you have ended up where you needed to be. Trust that you are in the right place at the right time. Trust that your life is enough. Trust that you are enough. – Daniell Koepke
Playing Your Colors Right
Blue: Makes the people around you feel at ease. Dark blues are great for interviews and lighter blues for parties and social events.
Red: The colour we associate with passion. Research conducted by the University of Rochester found that men were more attracted to, and turned on by, women who wearing ruby red clothing. Again, this is great for parties – but not always at work.
Purple: This brings out our creativity, and is associated with self confidence, independent thinking and class. Purple is appropriate on almost any occasion.
Black: Conveys authority, so that people see you as being powerful, confident and competent. It is the colour of choice of authority figures (like the police), or for stylists, trend setters and icons.
Orange: This luscious, exuberant colour sends the message that the wearer is friendly, sociable, relaxed, and approachable. It’s great for social events – but not for important business meetings.
Green: This is the colour of happiness and contentment. It can be an instant mood changer, putting others around you at their ease. It is great for all occasions, and can be worn in both the daytime and the evening.
Not All Toxic People Are Cruel
Not all toxic people are cruel and uncaring. Some of them love us dearly. Many of them have good intentions. Most are toxic to our being simply because their needs and way of existing in the world force us to compromise ourselves and our happiness. They aren’t inherently bad people, but they aren’t the right people for us. And as hard as it is, we have to let them go. Life is hard enough without being around people who bring you down, and as much as you care, you can’t destroy yourself for the sake of someone else. You have to make your well-being a priority. Whether that means breaking up with someone you care about, loving a family member from a distance, letting go of a friend, or removing yourself from a situation that feels painful — you have every right to leave and create a safer space for yourself. – Daniell Koepke
Doubt Says
Doubt doesn’t want you to do the things you love because doubt says you suck at those things and if you listen to doubt you will suck at those things.
Doubt is funny because it only exists within your mind.
Doubt is a persistent illusion that prevents you from tapping into your infinite potential.
Doubt is all mental, and if you can mend your mind and find the divine part of your heart you can recreate your fate and decide that doubt doesn’t belong in your song.
So yeah,
doubt,
fuck off.
Love Your Mother
Love your mother, the most beautiful person on this earth. Our best critic, yet our strongest supporter.
The Best Way to Be Happy
The best way to be happy is to turn the negatives into positives. Don’t let anyone steal your joy, and be thankful for what you have.
You Must Be the Master
You must be the master of your emotions if you wish to live in peace, for he who can control himself, becomes free. – Leon Brown
