Patience is strength. If you learn to endure and wait, it gives you the power to be resilient while you work hard to achieve your goals. Nothing is so sweeter than to reap the fruits of your labor because you were patient.

Are you taking too long to begin? The first step is the beginning of achieving our dreams. When we take too long to begin, sometimes the situations change, and the opportunity we have at that time may not last. Everyone wants to achieve their dream but is reluctant to take the first step. They are either fearful or lack the courage and motivation to make the first move. If we keep postponing things, they become unimportant and, most of the time, never even happen. If you…

10 THINGS TIME HAS TAUGHT ME 1. Most of our life is spent chasing false goals and worshipping false ideals. The day you realise that is the day you really start to live. 2. You really, truly cannot please all of the people all of the time. Please yourself first and your loved ones second, everyone else is busy pleasing themselves anyway, trust me. 3. Fighting the ageing process is like trying to catch the wind. Go with it, enjoy it. Your body is changing, but it always has…

What do we learn? Knowledge is a very powerful thing. The ability to learn makes us all powerful in some way. But to use this power is to understand it more. The whole experience of putting the power to work for us. Our true wisdom comes from the way we influence our power. What energy we decide to use with the knowledge. How we show up at any given moment to use this power of knowledge. That is true wisdom. Being proactive instead of being reactive. Writing our life instead…

How do we remain hopeful in difficult times? Difficult times are challenging periods because we feel as if they are going to last forever. Once we realise that our tough times will end, we can remain hopeful even in the most challenging time. When we go through a challenging situation, we try to deal with it, but when we don't see it ending or start to feel weak, we also lose hope. We need to remember that life goes through different phases, and every phase ends in its own…

"It's okay.. You'll be okay. Maybe not now but one day you will. Don't be so hard on yourself. You're doing your best already. Maybe you're feeling so overwhelmed and exhausted.

Move beyond success If you let success go to your head, you seriously compromise the possibility of future success. Acknowledge your success, thank others who do so, and then move on from it. Every success fades with time. Make the choice not to fade along with it. Your past successes are what you've done, but don't pretend that they define who you are. See yourself as a humble inhabitant of the present, eager to make a difference. Both success and failure provide valuable…

And kid, you’ve got to love yourself. You’ve got wake up at four in the morning, brew black coffee, and stare at the birds drowning in the darkness of the dawn. You’ve got to sit next to the man at the train station who’s reading your favorite book and start a conversation. You’ve got to come home after a bad day and burn your skin from a shower. Then you’ve got to wash all your sheets until they smell of lemon detergent you bought for four dollars at the local grocery…

To anyone who has struggled so much this entire year, I hope the universe would be so kind enough to let you read this letter. I’m so sorry if you’ve been through so much pain from everything that happened to you, may it be because of finances, work/academic stress, anxiety, heartbreak, betrayal from people you trusted, sudden loss of motivation, death of a loved one, family problems, depression, physical illness, criticisms, or personal struggles.

And all of us are prisoners of our own kind: prisoners of career, and aren't able to pursue their passion just to prioritize living; prisoners of other's expectations to them, and the pressure is slowly wearing them down; prisoners of the past, and an escape is still nowhere to be found; prisoners of sadness and lonesomeness; prisoners of many things and such. I hope all of us, someday, can be free from these cages—whether it is made by others, or only created by our own…

While living through struggles each day brings, take time to think of everything you survived and be grateful for strength you gained when you needed it the most. You overcame hardships that you never thought you could. Be thankful for surviving the worst. Things will only get better.

Do we create better connections when we are our true selves? Being true self means we are who we are. We neither pretend nor try to change ourselves to fit in. Many people are afraid of being their true selves because they fear being judged or excluded. So, they give up being themselves and embrace a lifestyle to become part of a group. In doing so, they slowly lose their true identity, so they neither connect well with others or themselves. Be your real self. You will…

Good morning. “Education forms the common mind. Just as the twig is bent, the tree’s inclined.” Alexander Pope.

What’s pulling you? Hopefully it is the right motivation that is pulling you out of your comfort zone to experience the best growth you will ever have. Because that is where we do almost all of our growing. Is when we are being stretched and pulled out of comfort and into something new. The amazing byproduct of this uncomfortableness is when we do allow our consciousness to be stretched like that, it can never go back to the original place or original size. For when the…

I see the light of day even when the moon is full. I can find joy in my stillness, I never feel the dull. Every day I…

How does being hopeful help us to overcome challenges in life? Being hopeful means that you see a possibility. When we see something being possible, we make our full efforts to achieve it. There are times in life when you face hopelessness. You feel as if nothing will ever work out and your dreams might not turn into a reality, but then is somewhere a tiny hope in your heart that makes you not give up. It is this little hope that makes you to continue and not give up. All…

Small Reminders Every day is a new day. What other people think of you is none of your business. If it's meant to be it'll be. Be your own source of happiness. You don't have to follow trends and do what everyone else is doing. How your life feels is more important than how it looks. Embrace your vulnerability. Don't let the world harden you into a person you are not. The first step is always the hardest. Stop rushing the process. You have survived 100% of your bad days. A…

Stop looking for grand gestures to see if someone loves you. It’s in the little things, the “i’m always here for you” or the random “I miss you” messages. It’s when they check to see if you’ve made it home or how your day was. It’s how how he/she buys you your favorite snack, how he/she knows that you love a movie, how he/she remembers a story you told him/her eons ago. It’s not the infrequent but grand gestures that keeps love alive, but rather, the small everyday reminders…

Old things carry old energy. Broken things carry stuck energy. If you don’t love it or use it, it’s clutter. There is a reason we feel so great after cleaning. Our home is an extension of our energy, our aura. Letting go of physical clutter also declutters our mind and soul. It removes obstacles on our way, on the energetic level. It clears our path for the best scenarios to unfold smoothly. If you ever feel that you just can't make a decision about something, try clearing…

Sometimes peace comes in the form of accepting that life isn't turning out the way you thought it would....By accepting this you aren't giving up on anything necessarily, but you ask yourself deeper questions. Is what's happening simply a life situation or is it my life? Most often the things that upset us are life situations. They are challenging and they are of relative importance but no situation is of utmost importance. Ask yourself if you need to do anything or is this…

“Happiness doesn't lie in conspicuous consumption and the relentless amassing of useless crap. Happiness lies in the person sitting beside you and your ability to talk to them. Happiness is clear-headed human interaction and empathy. Happiness is home. And home is not a house-home is a mythological concept. It is a state of mind. A place of communion and unconditional love. It is where, when you cross its threshold, you finally feel at peace.”

How does believing help us to achieve our dreams? Believing in your dreams means that you see the possibility of success. When we feel something is possible, we don't hesitate to try harder, or else we may easily give up. Sometimes, we want to achieve our dream, but our mind is full of doubts. When the mind is doubtful, it limits our ability. We are unable to explore our true potential and reach even those dreams that have a high chance of success. Believe in your dream;…

Healing is messy. Some nights you get flashbacks and sharp pains, and sometimes you feel nothing. There are days you feel really empty and unmotivated. There will be random breakdowns and countless times of overthinking. It's normal, may it be weeks, months, or years. Don't rush it, be gentle to yourself. Go along with it and learn from it. It's fine not to get yourself together, as long as you tried. You'll just have to keep on going and go through series of realizations…

No one is perfect. And if you ever think you can tailor-make a person to suit your expectations, You’re in for the disappointment of your life. Your partner will have annoying habits, Your best friend will have irritating flaws, Your family will not always do everything right, And if you love them all enough, None of this will ever matter. You’re just as flawed as they are, And that’s alright. It’s the beauty of being human, To love and embrace all that is flawed.

"If anyone desires a wish to come true they must first capture a butterfly and whisper that wish to it. Since a butterfly can make no sound, the butterfly can not reveal the wish to anyone but the Great Spirit who hears and sees all.

So, according to legend, by making a wish and giving the butterfly its freedom, the wish will be taken to the heavens and be granted."

Do you compete with others to feel successful? To feel successful we need to explore our true potential. This can only be achieved when we aim at improving and upskilling ourselves. When you compete with others your goal is to outperform them. You only try to improve to reach their level of capability. Your capabilities could be more than them. You never get to know your true abilities because you stop once you are ahead of others, thinking that you have achieved success.…

You tell yourself horrible things, but it's only because the people who were supposed to love and protect you didn't, so now you walk around feeling unworthy, unloved and unwanted. You don't know how to take a compliment and it feels like people are just saying things to be nice. But the reality is you are worthy, you are loved and you are wanted - you just had a rough start with humans who didn't know how to love themselves.

Can we find healing through our purpose? Deep pain often draws us closer to our purpose because we want to know the actual reality of life. In search for the truth of life, we find the reason for our existence. At that moment, the experience of pain changes into healing. Some situations leave us deeply wounded. We are unable to understand why it happened to us. We then connect with ourselves and are led to our higher self; this is when we experience the bliss of life and all…

I am a true believer that IT IS OUR BIRTHRIGHT to have as much money as we wish. If we feel deep inside ourselves the need to have a large amount of wealth, then it is what this world needs us to have and be.

It's much more fun to have plenty so we can give and share our wealth with others. The more we have the more we can give.…

I find people lonely & beautiful, they are nothing like a piece of garbage as they think they are. They may spend their nights alone, away from the world, or they may cry for the whole night. Still, whenever they meet someone, they meet with a warm smile. Sometimes they pretend, and sometimes they feel that warmth inside their hearts as well. They don't want to hurt someone; they want to help someone who is crying or carrying a dead heart. It doesn't matter what we are in…

Is being balanced the key to success? Being balanced means that a person is able to align their mind, body and soul. Once this alignment occurs, you feel so strong that nothing seems unachievable. Our mind is the key house of our thoughts. Once our thoughts become positive, our intentions are pure, and we don't allow our minds to wander, the mind becomes calm. When we take care of our physical body and fulfil our survival needs, we bring our bodies into a state of ease. When…

How can we remain patient when things take longer to happen? Everything in life has a definite time to happen. As we don't know when that time will come, we often get anxious and frustrated when things take too long. Our disappointment often increases when we see our peers way ahead of us in their lives. It makes us doubt our abilities and sometimes even makes us feel that we have lost. We must remember that we can make the best use of time by putting in our best effort, but…

Ten lessons I learned in 2022. 1. Silence is the best answer for people who aren't good for one's mental health. It would be best if you stayed away from toxic people. If it costs your peace of mind to be affected, ignore them and never keep in touch with them ever. 2. Stay patient in what you want to achieve. You can be struggling now, and in a couple of months, you can have your best shot at life. 3. No one can save you but yourself. You are your best savior. There is…

Sometimes the people who are thousands of miles away from you, can make you feel better than people right beside you. It's a fact that we need physical contact for mental and emotional health.

How do you manage when your pain is not understood? Pain can be eased when we share our feelings with others, but if we are unheard, it often worsens the pain. When we get emotionally wounded, our heart becomes very heavy. Many thoughts and questions run through our minds. If someone is there to listen to us, we are able to release our emotions and feel light. But when our feelings get disregarded, we keep them in our hearts, slowly damaging us from within. Don't carry…

In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Prayer and Thanksgiving,…

It's crazy how so many of our dreams had to take the backseat for reality. I don't even remember some of them anymore, but sometimes, I know that I still long for them. Sometimes, I just lay on my bed for hours, thinking of the might-have-beens, trying to fall asleep. I may have stopped going after a lot of the colors now, but I'd still like to believe that my canvas isn't finished yet. that I just needed to focus on the parts that matter the most, and then one day—I hope…

I reached the point in my life where goodbyes don't hurt as much as they used to. It's not because I've gone numbed or I don't value people anymore, but more because I've learned that life's too short and way too busy to keep everyone inside our bubble. No one told me this, but burning bridges in life is necessary. It allows us to focus on the people we really love, those who stayed, while letting those who were meant to just pass by enjoy their story. I'll be forever…

One thing I learned the hard way this year is, you can never control people but you control how you respond to them. You can never expect people to stop bothering you unless you do it yourself by cutting ties with them. Your peace will be the most expensive thing you can give to yourself and some people can't afford that for themselves. Do not let them cloud your mind. You do you. The universe favors the purest souls. 🤍

HAPPINESS You're going to realize it one day. That happiness was never about your job or your degrees or having a relationship. Happiness was never about following the footsteps of those who came before you; it was never about being the same as others. One day, you'll see. That happiness was always about discovery, hope, listening to your own heart and following it where it chose to go. Happiness was always about being kinder to yourself, it was always about embracing you,…

I don't think many people around me know how hard I am to myself. How there are so many days when my frustrations would get to me, and more often than not, how I would just keep all the broken pieces inside my head and let them eat me from the inside. That is why I will always have a special place in my heart for the silent cheers. For the corny jokes to perk me up, the warm hugs. Those simple gestures, those beautiful people—they're the ones that pull the pieces of my world…

“Healing doesn’t come through perpetuating the lies of the abuser, but through embracing the truth.” There is a truth buried deep inside our heart and soul, a sense of our own internal belief system, when we are ready to listen to the whisper of our own soul, the truth will heal us. On this my own life changing journey, I am walking my own path to find my way back to me without hurting others. We are all of us walking a path towards healing the child within our adult body…
