You have to believe you are put on earth for a reason, fulfillment won’t come from outside, no one is coming to save you.
The mind tries to filter out pain, fear and insecurities
You are in danger of living a life so sheltered and soft that you’ll never unlock your true potential
Don’t stop when you’re tired, stop when you’re done
This won’t make you feel better, this will make you better
Denial is comforting
Motivation is temporary, it changes nobody
When you take your first breath, you become eligible to die
Glossy surfaces reflect much more than they reveal
She’s the reason why I’ll never trust a smile or judge a scowl
Find power in the negative things in your life, turn trials into triumph
Either you’re getting better or you’re getting worse
The only way to change is to be honest with ourselves. If we seek shelter in comforting lies we are destined to stay the same
When you have no confidence, it’s easy to value other peoples opinions
Own the messed up parts of yourself, tough self love, give yourself thicker skin
We all have two voices in our heads, one telling us to take the path of least resistance and the other urging us to get better. Listen to the latter.
