Guard your Heart

You will never have to beg the right people for basic human decency - for respect, for time or for a response.

Stop creating excuses to let the wrong people stay any longer in your life. You have seen their real face, their actions made it visible.

You owe it to yourself to guard your heart from those who enter your life to hurt it. 🤍

If you go through life with a pure heart, you will always win. 🤍

ONLY YOU'RE THERE FOR YOU

One day, when you‘re old and reminiscing about your life, you won‘t think about what others thought about you - or how they judged you. You will think about missed opportunities, about the love you have never expressed, about the trips you never took, and about the dreams you‘ve never chased. Create a life worth reminiscing about by living in the now, by being your most authentic self, and by following your hearts deepest desires.

Sometimes we need to stop forcing connections to happen.

We need to stop seeing people through rose-coloured glasses.

We need to give them the space to reveal their true nature to us and once we saw their true nature, it’s up to us if we allow them to be a part of our life or not.

You deserve love

I want you to understand that the love you read about in books and watch in movies, the love you maybe gave up about a long time ago because reality has shattered your expectations to the ground, still exists. True, genuine love exists and you are worthy of experiencing it. You are worthy of being treated like a priority, you are worthy of feeling safe with someone. There‘s an inner child in you still believing in this true love, prove them right by letting anyone go who makes you feel that that‘s too much to ask for.

The right person

Someone who is truly meant for you would never be the reason why you cry yourself to sleep at night. Someone who is truly meant for you would never be the reason for you to ask yourself if you are good enough.

Someone who is truly meant for you would never intentionally hurt you in any way.Someone who is truly meant for you would never treat you like an option - but as their first priority.

how to be confident

how to be confident

─────────♡──────────

get to know yourself

it’s easy to be insecure when you don’t understand who you are, why you do what you do, or why you feel the way you feel. take time to understand those things. explore your likes and dislikes, your passions, your feelings, and your thought patterns. research shadow work and journal prompts and try to see into the deeper parts of yourself and your personality. getting to know yourself will give you a more stable image of yourself and help build up your self esteem and improve the way you see yourself and those around you.

consume content that makes you feel good

unfollow everyone that makes you feel insecure or insignificant. get rid of people you constantly compare yourself to. focus on pages, blogs, and channels that help you and make you happy. i have two posts about productive and healthy youtube channels you can follow, but for building confidence, i recommend leo skepi, simonesimmo, tam kaur, and thewizardliz.

take care of your body

skincare, hair care, exercise, and eating a balanced diet are not just about the aesthetics or how they make you look. taking care of yourself helps you appreciate your body and makes you feel good about yourself mentally. exercise also releases endorphins, a happy hormone, and gives you a sense of accomplishment knowing you’ve done something good for your body. that being said, do not force yourself to do workouts you hate. there are so many different types of exercise out there. experiment with different ones until you find one that you enjoy and works best for you.

practice positive self-talk

it sounds cheesy, but it’s so important. we talk to ourselves so much more than we realize, and since we rarely say these things out loud, our thoughts are usually uncensored negative things. “that was so stupid, i’m so stupid” or “i can’t do this” or “why can’t i look like her?”

would you talk to someone else like that? would you talk to a child like that? would you want someone to say that about themselves? if the answer is no, you shouldn’t say it to yourself either. we all have things we don’t like or things we would change about ourselves, but that doesn’t mean we should beat ourselves up over them. be mindful of the way you talk to yourself. turn “i don’t understand this, i’m so stupid” into “i may not understand this now, but i know that if i keep trying, i will get it.” turn “i’m so ugly, why don’t i look like her?” into “she may be beautiful, but so am i. her beauty does not take away mine.”

understand that not everyone will like or understand you, and that’s okay

no matter what you do or who you are, there will always be people who don’t understand what you’re doing or don’t like you for one reason or another, and that is perfectly fine. unfortunately, it’s just how life and people work. but that doesn’t mean we should change ourselves to try to please everyone. you can never please everyone. you are the only person that has to live your life and deal with the decisions you make. do what makes you happy and what is best for you and leave everyone else alone. it may take time, but it is always worth it.

IKIGAI: THE WAY TO LIFE.

Ikigai is a Japanese concept that represents "the reason for being" or "the way to life." It refers to finding a sense of purpose and fulfillment by balancing four elements: what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. Discovering your Ikigai can lead to a more meaningful and content life.

Not wasting your time & energy on people who don't deserve it.

Hi loves , today I wanna talk about people who are just supposed to be off limits to us . In the pursuit of a fulfilling and meaningful life, it is crucial to recognize the value of our time and energy. One of the most significant lessons we can learn is not to squander these finite resources on individuals who do not deserve them. Such individuals may exhibit behaviors that drain our positivity, hinder personal growth, or simply fail to reciprocate the care and effort we invest in them. It is essential to establish healthy boundaries and prioritize relationships with those who appreciate and support us. By redirecting our time and energy towards people who uplift us and reciprocate our efforts, we create space for personal growth, nourishing connections, and a more fulfilling existence overall.

Teen Mental Health Tips🫂

Improving mental health is important at any age, and as a teenager, there are several things you can do to support your well-being. Here is some advice to help improve your mental health:

Prioritize self-care: Make time for activities that bring you joy and relaxation. Engage in hobbies, exercise regularly, get enough sleep, and eat a balanced diet. Taking care of your physical health can have a positive impact on your mental well-being.

Build a support system: Surround yourself with people who uplift and support you. Maintain healthy relationships with friends and family members who are understanding and empathetic. If needed, consider seeking support from a counselor or therapist who can provide professional guidance.

Practice stress management: Stress is a common part of life, but learning healthy ways to manage it can make a significant difference. Explore stress reduction techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, journaling, or engaging in activities that help you relax.

Set realistic goals: Establish achievable goals and break them down into smaller, manageable steps. Celebrate your progress along the way, as this can boost your self-confidence and motivation.

Limit social media usage: While social media can be entertaining and helpful for staying connected, excessive use can have negative effects on mental health. Set boundaries for your social media usage and be mindful of the impact it may have on your self-esteem and overall well-being.

Practice mindfulness: Be present in the moment and cultivate awareness of your thoughts and emotions. Mindfulness exercises, such as mindful breathing or body scans, can help you develop a greater sense of calm and reduce anxiety.

Seek help when needed: If you're experiencing persistent feelings of sadness, anxiety, or struggling with your mental health, don't hesitate to seek help. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a parent, teacher, or school counselor, who can provide guidance and connect you with appropriate resources.

Remember, everyone's mental health journey is unique. It's important to be patient and kind to yourself as you navigate through challenges and work towards improving your well-being.
