Stop being so hard on yourself

No one told you life would be this hard. Families, relationships, careers, money, and all the other stuff that make up life can seem so confusing.

Sometimes it feels as if the rest of the world has the whole thing figured out while you’re fighting a lone battle just to keep going.

Nobody told you how to avoid getting hurt in life’s battles. Everyday people unintentionally shoot holes in your plans, your dreams, and your heart.

But you’re not alone. Everyone is struggling with something in their life, publicly or privately. No one has it all figured out.

So whenever you attack yourself for not feeling up to life’s battles, repeat this:

“Until you stop breathing, there’s more right with you than wrong with you.” 

Stop beating yourself up over everything you think, say, or do. Stop criticizing yourself for all your so-called “weaknesses” or“shortcomings.”

Feel good about yourself. Feel great about yourself. Realize it’s okay to be imperfect.

Look in the mirror and smile at the person smiling back at you. Because that person is wonderful and deserves your love.

Because that person is you.
