We often struggle to change habits that aren't serving us.

Sometimes we've nobody to blame but ourselves.

Rather than accept reality, we persist, telling ourselves things will be different, even when we see they haven't been and won't be.

What reality are you not accepting?

You've got this.

Sticking to decisions we immediately regret may not always be a big deal.

That voice we hear, however, suggesting we reconsider, is often the sweet voice of our own hearts.

If we ignore this voice long enough, we may eventually hear only silence.

What's your heart telling you?

You've got this.

Happiness isn't about life being perfect.

It's seeing the world as it is, appreciating what we can, and working to make things better.

That work will never be finished.

Accepting this just might be what so many of us are missing.

Happiness is making peace with imperfection.

You've got this.

There's nothing wrong with wanting your life to be different than it is.

When all we do, however, is spend our time thinking about how things should, would, or could be, we let life pass us by, doing everything but living it.

You are where you are.

What can you do from here?

You've got this.

Others' opinions of us can be worthy of consideration and can influence our self-image.

Changing others' minds without changing our own, however, will never fix our insecurities.

What we think of ourselves matters most in this regard.

Our insecurities reflect our own thoughts.

We often carry our failures with us, as if they're permanent parts of who we are.

While failure can bring irreversible consequences, we can nearly always learn from it and work to do better.

There's hope in that work, no matter the outcome.

Look for the hope in your failures.

You've got this.

You might know what you want and be working toward it.

If you're unsure what you want, though, you might feel a bit lost or anxious.

Even if you've eliminated a few "definitely not that" options, you might still feel the need to do something.

What if you do nothing at all?

You've got this.

The joy of achievement is often over in a mere instant.

Our elation quickly fades as we move on to whatever's next.

Over and over again, we inevitably feel the call of pursuit.

It's the pursuit, however, not the achievement, that calls us.

The pursuit is what fills our cups.

You've got this.

We can put tremendous pressure on ourselves to reach our goals.

This pressure so easily and so often spirals into feelings of failure.

We forget how much effort, time, and patience change can require.

It's okay to be on your way.

How else do you get to where you want to go?

You've got this.

Constraints often make life more difficult, but they also make life easier in some ways.

For example, deadlines can help us set a pace, limited options can help us make decisions, and finite resources can help us know when to quit.

How might you benefit from more constraints?
