giving something 100% doesn't mean giving it 100% everyday, but it does mean showing up. Show up for yourself and your goals. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you stopped giving up when things got tough? You can step back without stepping away completely. Take a day off, take a week off, but don't give up.
We’re so obsessed with “the best version of ourselves” this version doesn’t exist. There is no final form where we are so sure that we are the best we will ever be. Humans by nature experience highs and lows that fluctuate, social media helps in our skewed perception of life, we see so many people at their best all the time that we begin to envy them and self-doubt.
Don’t invest in your final form, invest in your now. Each moment being present and continuous, enjoying or living through each experience as it happens and just trying your best. Find ways to enjoy being the you, you are now. If you don’t you’ll never find yourself enjoying life, you’ll always be saying “one day”.
I think the nicest thing someone's ever said to me was when the other night someone said "I think bringing people together is your superpower"... Not 'strength' but 'superpower'.
If you had to name one thing as your superpower, what would it be? Sometimes we are so harsh on ourselves that we forget to see the beauty that others see in us.
I've been recently asked where all my confidence comes from. Hearing this at first was a shock because for so long, most of my life, I've been a deeply insecure person. It caused me some reflection wondering where the confidence I've found in the past 2 years has come from... I think the best answer I could give is doing things anyway despite the anxious voice in my head causing my own self doubt. I get nervous in lectures to raise my hand and ask questions, but I do it anyway. I get nervous trying new things, but last night I joined a running club.
I think with growing up and out of my shell hasn't been about getting rid of the self-doubt or senseless anxiety but instead not letting it overpower me. I silence the voice replaying embarrassing scenarios, I don't give it room to breathe and just do things in spite of it. I think that's why I come off as confident, because people can't see the anxiety I'm constantly silencing.
Made it to my uni's Deans list! (top 5% of results)
I've got the ceremony today 🥲🥲 So good to see hard work pay off
I'm so in love with self improvement and self care practices. It's just all the small things in my day that add up to feeling deep internal gratification. Stretching in bed before getting up, listening to an audiobook while walking, putting ice in my water, taking rewarding study breaks, turning the water cold at the end of my shower, eating healthily. It's just the small things sometimes make you feel so good.
forgot I had this space to clear my head! was feeling all those nasty feelings and icky about myself but it's okay- shifting the mindset to seeing the POSITIVE and deciding that EACH DAY is a FRESH START! Choosing to love myself the best way I know how, know tomorrow is a new day, going to take care of my mind and body. Who else is with me!?
I ran an 11k on the weekend! It's the race that made me start running 3 months ago when I signed up on a whim. It's such a wonderful feeling that I can't quite describe, having everything, all the preparation, hard work and set backs lead up to the one moment ... how are you all doing? what goals are you working towards at the moment?
