ā1. Give yourself permission to not be happy. No one is happy 100% of the time and you should not feel pressured to be because other people are uncomfortable with your feelings. 2. Sometimes the road to forgiveness starts with yourself. 3. Screw the idea that you have to seize every day. Some days all you have to do is lie in bed and forget the world. That is enough. 4. It is better to be alone than to be surrounded by toxic people. 5. Donāt compare your life to others. You are exactly where you need to be right now. Focus on you and everything else will be fine. 6. Learn to work through your emotions instead of hiding them away. 7. Stop relying on others for joy. Find joy within yourself and the things you do and no one will ever be able to take your joy away again. 8. Work for what you want. The world will not give it to you but it is out there for you to take. 9. Be angry but then forgive people who have wronged you. The longer you hold onto that negativity the greater power it has over you. Do not let the negativity consume you. 10. Be the best person you can be, in whatever way you can be. Whether itās helping others or learning to love yourself, end every day knowing that you were the best person you could be.ā
