Sometimes you look back at the girls you spent your money on rather than sending it to your mother and you realise witchcraft is real

So many women have internalized the idea that being difficult makes people think less of them, when in my experience the opposite is almost always true. Every single time I have spoken up, voiced what I actually need and refused to shrink the moment in order to be more comfortable for everyone else in the room, I have been approached afterward by people who wanted to know me better. There is no reward waiting for you on the other side of making yourself smaller. People do not love you more for taking up less space, they simply get used to you taking up less space and adjust their expectations accordingly. Every time I have been exactly as audacious as the moment required, it has opened doors rather than closed them and I have made real connections directly because of it rather than in spite of it.

To start loving exercise 🍇

* Think of workouts as something you are happy to do for the benefit of your body, not something you have to do to punish it for not looking right.

* Focus on how you feel during and after movement, not just how you look.

* Treat exercise like a neutral form of daily care, the same way you would sleep, eat, or brush your teeth. It’s just a part of the obvious maintenance. 

* Redefine your idea of a “successful workout” as simply showing up and doing what you could, not going all-out every time.

* I cannot stress to you enough that exercise is a reward and something to look forward to. If you don’t feel that way, try a different form of exercise. There’s more than just hitting the gym. Experiment with different types of movement until you find what actually feels enjoyable.

* Even if you only work out 10 minutes a day with a very basic beginner, low impact, no equipment routine, you would be so far ahead a year from now.

* Stop waiting for motivation and start building the identity of “I’m someone who moves my body for fun on the daily.”

Things won’t always go as planned- you might not always do well on tests, you might fail, you might get pushed down, you might stop believing in yourself, you might struggle. But after all of that, after burdening all of the weight that kept you from striving, you have to get back up. Nobody’s journey is smooth and there’s nothing wrong with that because you can always pull yourself up and keep going.

every morning i wake up and make the worst possible time management decisions anyone has ever made

If you’re secretly a bit masochistic or tend to engage in self destructive habits or behaviors, you can literally transform that into a superpower. You’re already a step above the rest: some part of you enjoys the dopamine rush and addiction of pain. Most of people’s inaction stems from a subconscious desire to avoid pain or discomfort. Instead of harming yourself with bad habits/situations/people, channel that energy into trying new things, putting yourself out there, working out, the discomfort of being a beginner at something, allowing yourself the risk of being rejected or told no. Transform and alchemize your energy and get addicted to that instead.

btw what you consume shapes your perception. if you flood your mind with cynicism, chaos, and uninspired content, you dull your ability to see beauty. curating your inputs—art, literature, film, music, people—rewires your vision. you get to choose which version of life you experience...
