Learning how to stay calm when you feel disrespected is a different kind of growth.

IF THE ROUTINE NO LONGER SERVES, YOU MUST ALTER THE PATTERN, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?? YOUR LIFE STARTS WITH YOU

not to be all "these two words will change your life" or whatever, but I promise you, programming in "good catch!" as your response to people correcting you/pointing out errors or whatever removes so much friction from interactions, and comes with a delightful happy meal toy of "not hating yourself so much for making mistakes"

I use "I stand corrected" a lot. The mild silliness of the outdated language makes it work for me.

Even if you're scared, don't be afraid to let a good thing happen to you. It might change your life in the best way.

Emotions aren’t masculine or feminine. they’re human. normalize them.

as you get older, you start realizing that you are not always right and there’s a lot of things you could have handled better and many situations where you could have been kinder and all you can really do is forgive yourself and let your mistakes make you a better person.

Breathe. You don't have to borrow stress from a future that hasn’t happened yet.

please don’t forget you’re loved. anxiety lies. people care. you are loved. It’s ok.

idk who needs to hear this rn but relapsing doesn’t mean you’ll never get better. it doesn’t make you a failure. it makes you a human on their healing journey.
