Life's Lessons

Life's lessons learned along the way...here are a few things I've learned so far...

  • one thing I've always told my daughter...if you don't ask the question...you'll never know the answer
  • don't be afraid of making a mistake...it's in the mistakes of our lives that we can learn the biggest life lessons sometimes
  • take risks...take a lot of them...life is also about the chances you take and make for yourself
  • get out of your comfort zone...do things that scare you a little...you'll realize it wasn't as bad as you thought and you're stronger than you believe
  • say yes more often...simple enough...just say yes
  • say no more often...simple enough too
  • take good care of yourself and always be gentle...treat yourself as well as you treat those in your life...take care of your needs (all of them!)
  • don't do something just to make someone else happy (and then you unhappy) or to make them like you...do what makes YOU happy and let them worry themselves and if they can't accept you for you...then you don't need them
  • there are bullies in the world and sometimes we are our own bully...talk gently with yourself...words hurt and leave bruises we can't see but last a long time
  • don't play the "if only" game...it's a dead end game that'll leave you exhausted
  • YOU are your biggest support in life...sure you may have those around you thinking and saying you can...but if you don't think you can...does it really matter what anyone else thinks?..support yourself 
  • it's okay not to be okay and that's okay too...there are days when you need to "unplug" from the world around you...that's okay...just don't forget to plug yourself back in 

What lessons have you learned in life? I know I've learned a lot more than what I shared but we all have to start somewhere right? 

take good care of you
