  • Day 82 || Self Sufficiency

    If we are physically and emotionally capable of doing so, we should be working towards becoming self sufficient in our daily lives. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, but remember we shouldn’t be using anyone as a crutch for longer than a crutch would be useful because a crutch can never replace a solid foundation. Focus on building a foundation with substance and work from there. The sooner we realize we are responsible for our own happiness, the sooner we can get started on fostering it.

  • Day 81 || What If vs. What Is

    Day 81 - Become a realist in your relationships. See people for who they are today, not who you think they could become in the future. Of course, they will probably grow and change with time but the core values of the person in front of you, right now, will more than likely, remain the same. So if you find yourself saying “they’d be perfect if only they… were more driven or more attentive or more loving or more creative or more spontaneous” you’re not being realistic.

  • Day 80 || Diversify Your Friend Group

    Day 80 - how diverse is your friend group? We should be hanging out with vast groups of people who think, act, and live differently than ourselves. When we do so, it expands our worldview and our potential. Healthy discourse is incredibly important to understanding other cultures and perspectives. Hiding in an echo chamber of like minded humans repeating the same like minded thoughts means we will never be challenged to think critically about the world. That’s how people lose their sense of free will and end up in lifestyles that push other people’s dreams instead of our own.

  • Day 79 || Yucking Someone's Yum

    Day 79 - Nobody likes a killjoy.

    If someone gets a kick out of anything at all - don’t let shame enter the conversation. We should be supporting joy and excitement in any form and when we put down people’s enjoyment of things - we tell them we’re not supportive or safe people to share things with. As long as they’re not hurting anyone else, it shouldn’t matter what your opinion is on the subject.

  • Day 78 || Breakups are a B!tch

    By severing a relationship that was not serving your best light - you are allowing space for new relationships to grow and thrive together in search of that light. Some people will use you as their soil in order to grow instead of growing with you, and sometimes those people don’t want to grow, because it would affect them negatively. Other times, we use people as our soil to nourish ourselves without ever considering their highest good.

  • Day 77 || Our Reactions Hold The Power

    Day 77 - Situations and people are powerless without our reactions to them. I have often reiterated how valid all of our feelings are - no matter how dark or terrible the feeling - but I want to reemphasize the fact that despite our feelings being valid, our responses to those feeling are not always acceptable or appropriate.

  • Day 76 || Nourished Soul vs. Nourished Ego

    Day 76 - Does this nourish my soul or does this nourish my ego? It doesn’t mean everything needs to be changed to feed your soul right now - not everything can or will be aimed towards your highest good - but it does mean you can become more in control and aware of the people who are helping you grow vs those who may want you to stay stagnant.

  • Day 74 || Boundaries Can Be Liberating

    Day 74 - Boundaries seem like they only serve to set limitations on those around us, but in reality, they are setting guidelines to work within. Which can be incredibly liberating. It’s not about holding others accountable as much as it should be about self advocacy. If you don’t show people how to treat you, how on earth could they possibly know how to treat you.
