1.

The race you think youre in.

The race to find an internship, a degree, a job, an apartment.

When you focus on yourself, your path and your goals, you take yourself out of this race.

Things that hurt in your past.

God & Man

We all have things that have happened to us.

Things that might not have been fair.

Things we cling to that arent even our own burdens to still dictating our lives.

Let go of it all.

Forgive someone else and stop letting it hurt you more than it already did.

The people in your past who pop up on your phone just to check in.

That relationship you wish had a different outcome.

The hope that maybe one day.

Toxic people and habits.

Realizing someone isnt helping you to get to where you want to be is major.

Letting them go and distancing themselves isnt easy.

Toxic people cling to things and people that are the same.

Youll never grow with these people.

Realizing you are the one who is toxic to yourself is hard to accept.

Your choices and habits have everything to do with your happiness or lack thereof.

The pressure you put on yourself.

Silence that voice in your head telling you negative things like you arent where you should be.

The world is an ugly and mean enough place you, dont put yourself down also.

Give yourself a little more credit.

When people have nothing else going for them theyll talk about others and judge them.

8. Who you used to be.

You will never look the way you did when you were 17.

Youll never have that fast metabolism you might have taken for granted.

But you do have now.

Things that arent making you happy.

If something isnt making you happy, you are robbing yourself of the chance to pursue something that does.

When you find that thing give it your all.

Happiness will follow doing what you love.

And doing what you love will lead to success.

That place you always go back to.

That person you always turn to when things go wrong.

Youll never know true success if you dont risk things to get there and with those risks comes failing.

Youll learn more failing something than you will from the things you do well and succeed in.

I recommend everyone fail something and do it often.

You are chasing something that will always be ahead of you that you cant catch.

Being overly critical of yourself.

The happiest people I know love themselves.

Ive never met someone who hated themselves and could honestly tell me they were happy.

When you love yourself it has a positive domino effect for everything else in your life.

Learn from mistakes dont dwell on them.

If you want to be happy stop looking at your newsfeed and getting jealous of something that is fake.

They find validation within themselves, not through notifications.

Wanting to be liked.

If you want to be happy stop focusing on the people who dont like you and why.

Their opinion doesnt matter.

Something when its over.

Dont water dead flowers.

Let go of things when they longer serve you or make you better.

Excuses are what you come up with when you dont want something bad enough.

And if you dont want it bad enough dont waste any more time on that thing.

But if there is something you cant stop thinking about, then stop thinking about it and do something.

Waiting for that person to text you.

The phone works both ways.

Waiting for that opportunity.

Opportunity comes to those who arent sitting on their ass.

Waiting for your life to happen.

Your life is happening right now and you dont know how many days you have.

Its your job to learn how to make the most of average days.

If you knew tomorrow was your last day, what would you say or do differently?

What would you regret?

Say what you oughta.

Do the things you keep holding off and live with no regrets.
