Appreciate Yourself. Embrace Yourself.

Give yourself the extra attention you need and deserve.

Resisting and ignoring your own feelings and emotions does not serve you.  It leads to stress, illness, confusion, broken relationships, fits of anger and bouts of deep, dark depression.  Anyone who has experienced any of the above knows that these states of mind are horrifically unhealthy… and when you’re in the habit of self-neglect, it’s near impossible to escape.

You have to admit, to a certain extent, you have spent too much of your life trying to shrink yourself.  Trying to become smaller.  Quieter.  Less sensitive.  Less opinionated.  Less needy.  Less YOU.  Because you felt broken, and you didn’t want to be too much or push people away.  You wanted to fit in.  You wanted people to like you.  You wanted to make a good impression.  You wanted to be wanted.  So you could feel healed.

So for years, you sacrificed yourself for the sake of making other people happy.  And for years, you suffered.

But you’re tired of suffering, and you’re done shrinking.  Right?  Good!

It’s not your job to change who you are in order to become someone else’s idea of a worthwhile human being.  You are worth YOUR while.  Not because other people think you are, but because you are breathing your own air, and therefore you matter.  Your thoughts matter.  Your feelings matter.  Your voice matters.  And with or without anyone’s approval or permission, you must be who you are and live your truth.  Even if it makes people turn their heads.  Even if it makes them uncomfortable.  Even if they choose to leave.

You may have been broken down by adversity, but YOU are not broken.  So don’t let others convince you otherwise.

Heal yourself by refusing to shrink.

Learn to be more human again.

#hwtujuibado 👋 | Hello everyone .   My hopes.... life's treating you just the same way you treat it. My eyes are on social media today... and with this 'short' article,  I hope to open your eyes too on some  impeccable reality about it.  | We think we need all those text messages, social updates, memes, and perfect Instagram pics ! If it entertains you now but will hurt or bore you someday, it’s a distraction.  Don’t settle.    Don’t exchange what you want most for what you kind of want at the moment.   Study your habits.  Figure out where your time goes, and remove distractions.  It’s time to focus on what matters. A good place to start? Learn to be more human again.   Don’t avoid eye contact.  Don’t hide behind gadgets.  Smile often.  Ask about people’s stories.  Listen.  You can’t connect with anyone, including yourself, unless you are undistracted and present.  And yo...

Compromise.

#hwtujuibado If you cannot get what you love out of this life, then learn to love and cherish the things that have been handed to you, because they are there and they are yours, don't chase the impossible, if you can't be who you want to be in life then learn to be the things you're not, and if you can't get what you need from life then learn to need the things that stop you from dreaming, but by all means necessary keep moving on, and should the universe turn its back on you then do the same, don't let the universe get the best of you, just COMPROMISE. Our goal this year, after many years now, is to turn setbacks into comebacks, journey with Me as we re write our fates.

Facing Fear

" Everything you have ever wanted, is sitting on the other side of fear ." Fear keeps us in the background. It convinces us we can never accomplish our dreams, tells us to keep quiet, and separates us from the ones we love. Fear has an unparalleled ability to freeze us in our tracks, and limit what we are willing to try. Fear makes us lead a smaller life. The things that we are afraid of may be different, but our reactions to fear are usually the same – our palms sweat, our mouths get dry, our stomachs churn — and we would do anything, make any sacrifice, just to make it go away. How many times have you turned away from an opportunity or even a relationship because you were too afraid to go for it? Fear is not a bad thing. It exists for our protection as an early warning signal. But there is a big difference between the healthy fear that tells us to step away from the edge of a cliff and a constant fear that keeps us from living our life. All...
