Rule # 1...BE YOURSELF!
The best version of you is the true version of you! The most important thing that you can ever do in life is learn to love the skin you are in. Stop being overly concerned with other people's opinions and expectations. You will find more happiness and contentment in living out your own dreams, by your own terms, and pursuing your own goals. Take the time to figure out who YOU are and what makes YOU happy. It takes way more energy trying to live up to other people's expectations of you, instead of simply being yourself. The time that you put into trying to impress the next person, is time that you could put into self-improving yourself. Take heed to the company that you keep. A majority of the time, the people who are judging you...have problems of their own that need fixing. There's some people out there that have to build themselves up by putting other people down. So ask yourself... do these people consistently down talk you? Or are these people honestly concerned ? The ones who are honestly concerned won't belittle you but will instead provide a solution, or at least give useful advice. Be very careful with what type of people you surround yourself with. There's a saying that goes: "Birds of a feather, flock together." If you're constantly in the presence of negativity...you are bound to begin displaying negative actions and language. If the people surrounding you are angry, gossipers, unhealthily competitive, and/ or envious...TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK AT YOURSELF. Either you have changes to make... or you need to change the people around you. The way that you love yourself teaches others how to love you! Treat yourself, don't cheat yourself. Proverbs 23:7 states: "So a man thinks, he is." Understand that your thoughts are able to manifest in your actions and words. Know that your words hold power! Begin speaking life over yourself today! Surround yourself with encouraging, inspiring people who also speak life over you! Remember that positive thoughts manifest forward movement, which help you to accomplish your goals! It all starts with you...YOU are 100% responsible for your life. Choose to "Be Empowered. Level Up. Soar!"
