🌸 10 things to keep in mind for 2018 🌸
1️⃣ You have that one big goal in mind that seems pretty much unreachable from where you are right now? Set yourself small goals along the way. It’s satisfying to know you’ve taken another step towards your main goal, even if that step was a small one.
2️⃣ If you like someone, tell them. If you struggle to find the right words, show them instead. Make time for them. Listen to them. Choose them with everything you have. It’s the small gestures that mean so much.
3️⃣ Do more of what makes you happy - such a generic phrase, yet it holds so much truth. If there is something you are passionate about, something that makes your heart race, no matter what it is, pursue it. Don’t ever give up on your dreams.
4️⃣ Forgive yourself for mistakes you made in the past. Every decision that seems like a wrong one at the start could lead to something that changes your life for the better, never forget that.
5️⃣ The perfect time to start is right now. Not tomorrow, not in a month, not in a year. Procrastination is tempting but it’s also toxic. If there is something, anything in this world that makes your pulse race and you’ve been scared to pour your whole heart into it, start now. Don’t wait because the beginning seems scary. It is. It always is. Take the first step.
6️⃣ Take your time to heal. If you’re ready to move on in a month, it’s okay. If a year has gone by & you still can’t figure out how to let go of your past, it’s okay. Know that time is a vital factor when it comes to healing wounds & every person needs a different amount of time.
7️⃣ Give yourself more credit. Think back to where you were years ago, recall your worries and fears from that time and acknowledge how far you’ve come. You are incredibly brave, never forget that.
8️⃣ Think of something you’ve always been too scared to do - then do it. There is nothing that makes you prouder than conquering your fears.
9️⃣ Being kind is a choice. Consciously decide to be a good person - it doesn’t mean you won’t have bad thoughts, that you won’t mess up or that you don’t get to be selfish sometimes. But you have the power to decide what kind of person you want to be today. Be the person that makes the world a little brighter, not the one who darkens someone else’s light to push themselves to the fore.
🔟 If someone wants to be a part of your life, they’ll fight for it. If they miss you, they’ll call. If they want to keep you at their side, they’ll show you. And if they don’t, if they keep messing up and take you for granted, you’re probably better off without them.
