1
Don't chase people who don't value you. Don't stay at places where you feel more exhausted than excited. Don't expect respect from someone who is never willing to meet you halfway. If they can't honor your presence, they deserve your absence.

If you dream of it, it isn't impossible. You long for it because it's meant for you. You are meant to drop fears and inhibitions and chase what sets your soul on fire. A shake up in your current life is almost always followed by something better, something awesome.

If you made wrong choice and realized the mistake much later, it's okay. Even if it changed course of your life drastically, it's still okay. You did what you felt was best. You have already suffered a lot due to that. Worrying is a waste of time. Forgive yourself.

Some people are meant to be part of one chapter of your story and some stay longer. Everyone has a role to play. There's a reason they meet you. Enjoy every season while it lasts. Don't force connection. Don't regret anything. Every presence is meaningful if you look back later.

A better life starts with small, consistent, boring actions you repeat day after day, even when you don't feel like it. One day you turn back and realise you have come farther than you could imagine. Allow life to change for the better.

Sometimes you have to make a snap decision to change your life. Change the people you spend time with. Change the places you visit. Change routine. Staying the same won't create a new version of you. The right room and right advice can do miracles for your life.

There is no benefit in seeking revenge. It's like glueing yourself to a situation that reminds you of deep pain and blocks your progress towards something better. If they hurt you, leave them to karma. Don't give them room in your mind any further. Focus on healing and moving on.

You can change your life sooner than you think. Take that chance you feel unworthy of. Make the decision that scares you. Change one habit you feel you never can. Don't underestimate your power. Get started. Momentum will build. Progress will compound. Every move counts.

Hate has four letters, but so does love. Enemies has seven letters, but so does friends. Lying has five letters, but so does truth. Failure has seven letters, but so does success. Cry has three letters, but so does joy. Negativity has ten letters, but so does positivity. You always have a choice, so choose the better side of it.
