Despite Everything, Continue to be Kind


Bad people will always find a way to weasel their way into your life, but you shouldn't let them harden your heart. Stay soft, stay kind, but more importantly, don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and reinforce your boundaries. You should never stop being kind or having a soft heart because someone decided to be rude or downright cruel to you. Don't let one bad person solidify your faith in humanity as a whole; there are still plenty of good and wonderful people out there.

Don't let one bad experience ruin your entire life. You don't need to stoop down to their level in order to be "even" with them. You can simply move on from the experience and continue to be happy with yourself and your life, despite everything.

Dwelling on the past only leads to further regret and guilt, so why burden yourself with it? Sit with yourself for a moment and ask yourself if the feeling of regret and guilt serves you in any way. If it's not, then why are you holding onto it? Let it go, and let it be. You can't change what has happened, so learn to accept what has happened and to move on from it with a better, happier mindset, knowing that you have passed that obstacle.

I once had someone pass me, and the passenger literally leaned out of the window and flipped me off. He was in a merge lane, I was in the lane nearest to him, and I couldn't let him in because I had people around me, so I stayed going the same speed. He didn't like that, so when he finally merged, he flew by me and I couldn't hear him, but I knew he was saying "Fuck you, bitch!" I smiled and waved to him. I thought it was funny that someone could be so immature. A lot of these kinds of people just want to get a reaction out of you, so why not give them the opposite instead?

Someone will always find a way to get on your nerves, or even outright mean to you, but that doesn't mean that you need to respond in kind. The best way to beat someone is with kindness; a lot of times, that makes them angrier, but it raises you up for being the better person. So don't stoop down to someone else's level. Stay classy and respond with kindness instead.

Let Go of the Past and Embrace Change

Leave the past in the past! You won’t progress in life if you’re dragging old habits around with you. If you keep trying the same thing over and over again, and you’re not getting the results that you want, maybe it’s time to try something new. T hink of it like diet and exercise. Some diets won't work for you, just like some exercises work better for other people than they will for you. It’s all about figuring out what works, rather than doing the same old thing and becoming disappointed every time you don’t get results. In order to move forward in your life, you need to learn to embrace change. Sometimes, you can get so caught up in sticking with the things that you know, that you wind up afraid of venturing out of your comfort zone. It’s easy to stay with what’s familiar, but you have to learn to let go of familiarity and let yourself embrace the new and the unknown. You need to allow yourself to be open to new ideas and new ways of thinking. You're stuck where you are righ...

Don't Allow Your Fears To Control Your Life

Everyone has something that they are afraid of—you, me, everyone! It’s not shameful to have these fears, but you shouldn’t allow them to take precedent over your life. Things only have power over you because you give them that power. If your fears are starting to hold you back from living the life that you want, then you need to rethink how you view those fears and learn to break past them in order to move on. Your limitations are only limitations because you allow them to be. You are capable of so much more than you give yourself credit for, so don’t allow yourself to be brought down by your fears just because you’re worried that you won’t be able to overcome them. You can do anything that you put your mind to, and if that involves overcoming your fears, then you will be able to do just that! When you choose to avoid your fears and not face them, you open yourself up to even more fear, as well as limitations on your abilities. Facing your fears allows you to break free of the restrict...

There is so much in life to look forward to, so let's help each other out by naming the things that we're excited for. I'll start us off by saying that I'm excited to go to the beach tomorrow.
