Your goal isn’t to get rid of negative thoughts;
it’s to change your response to them.

Before you complain about school, remember that some people can’t even get an education. Before you complain about getting fat, remember that some people don’t even have any food. Before you complain about your job, remember that some people don’t even have any money. Before you complain about cleaning the house, remember that some people don’t even have any shelter. Before you complain about washing the dishes, remember that some people don’t even have any water.

Forgiveness isn’t about condoning someone’s poor behaviour and it doesn’t always mean that you need to invite individuals back into your life; it simply means that you’ll no longer allow them power over your thoughts and control over your emotional state. That way, they can’t dictate your destiny.

Lasting relationships, romantic or otherwise, require layers of compatibility, attraction, understanding and hard work.

Having a high level of self-disclosure is one of the most important building blocks in an intimate relationship, as well as in social ones, too.

empowering novels like The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho are great,

We could say that it’s not our responsibility if others are offended by our actions. After all, it’s only their perception and ideas around our actions that are actually hurting them.

It’s important to recognize that it’s
not unjust to let go of those who
show no concern for you.

Just because they’re your family, it doesn’t mean they have the best intentions for you. Many of us are taught that there’s nothing more important than family. But biological relationships don’t always equal supportive, close relationships. Friends can be more like family than family itself. We shouldn’t conceal the fact that sometimes it’s our own family members who are the most toxic people in our lives.

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Change the way you think, feel, speak and act, and you begin to change your world.

However, I’ve also learned not to waste time on people who have no interest in what I have to say, or why I say it.

Ultimately, self-love and raising the level of your vibration go hand in hand. When you make an effort to raise your vibration, you show yourself the love and care you deserve. You’ll feel good and attract good. By taking positive actions and changing your mindset, you’ll manifest greater things. By loving yourself, you’ll live a life you love.

Notice the people who celebrate your achievements, wish you a happy birthday, get excited about your goals and encourage you to do better without losing your sense of self.
Those are the people worth keeping around.

When you forgive people you don’t improve the past, you improve your present and future. You give yourself more peace and build more positive energy internally.
