LEARN & GROW

here’s to every girl working so so hard to reach her goal. i see you. you can do it.

My life got better when I accepted that sometimes shit just doesn’t work out. You aren’t always going to get the job, the partner, the class, the internship or whatever else you care about. Sometimes shit hits the fan and you have to be okay with that. Every time your life falls to pieces you can’t hit the floor, you gotta get your shit together, let out a little cry and keep going. Like just bc shit doesn’t work out does not mean life is going terribly, it just means it wasn’t meant to be at this time and that’s A o fucking kay.

sometimes you need to do the hard thing. study for your test even if it’s boring and you want to avoid it. get up an hour early to exercise even if you feel like death. go out of your way to help someone else even if it’s inconvenient. do something alone even though you’re afraid of being judged. go somewhere new even if it’s scary and disorientating at first. confess to the person who makes u blush even if it means risking rejection. let go of your old habits even though it feels like you can’t live without them. it’s supposed to be hard. life isn’t going to have amazing rewards if you’re always feeling comfortable.

look . if you wanna paint or write or sing or take photographs or play an instrument just DO IT. it might be hard in the beginning, it might not turn out as perfect as you imagined, but you know what, not even a professional artist thinks that way. and heck, you created something. you brought something to life. if that isn’t the best thing in the world i really dk what is

Change is scary, I know, but not inherently bad. Remember that life is full of change and a lot of it is for the better. You’ll adjust to all that’s new and you may even find you like it!
